Myth Beyond Heaven-Chapter 1190 Burial Ground (2)

Yun Lintian's heart became heavy when he realized this. The first question that popped up in his mind was how did they end up losing their lives here? Did they kill each other, or did something take their lives away?

"What's wrong, junior brother?" Nantian Fengyu asked as she saw Yun Lintian's face grow heavy.

"There are a lot of bones of divine beings under this place. They have been here for a long, long time. Maybe more than ten thousand years." Yun Lintian replied.

Nantian Fengyu was shocked and subconsciously stepped back. She couldn't believe that a fairy-like place like this was actually a graveyard. What was more? It wasn't an ordinary graveyard but a graveyard of divine beings! ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

"No wonder the Earth Vein could reach this grade." Yun Lintian said further as he stared at the Earth Vein at the pond's center.

It had grown into this grade because of the residual power left behind by these divine beings' corpses.

Yun Lintian put the matter of the bones of divine beings aside and looked at the recently buried bones. From their shapes, these bones were pretty much intact, which meant the owners died without even putting up a fight.

Obviously, there must be something tricky in this place.

"There's no a single Shadow Monster here." Nantian Fengyu suddenly said.

Yun Lintian glanced around and frowned deeply. He tried to find any seal or formation, but nothing could be seen here. This puzzled him greatly.

His gaze finally landed on the black pond. Through the Eyes of Heaven, except for a small trace of the dark element, he didn't see anything else. The problem was that, with the Earth Vein here, how could the water in the pond become this black?

Thinking of this, Yun Lintian took a small dagger out and prepared to throw it into the pond. However, Hongyue's voice suddenly resounded.

"Don't touch the pond."

Yun Lintian halted his movement and asked. "Do you know something?"

"This is the burial ground, and the pond is served as a seal to suppress the resentment of these people in this place. Once you touch it, you will immediately be attacked by it." Hongyue explained. "The resentment of a Divine Emperor is no joke. Your soul might be devoured by it instantly."

Yun Lintian immediately understood. It was no wonder the owners of those recent bones died without any physical injury.

"Those Shadow Monsters you saw before should have consumed a lot of fear from this place," Hongyue said. "Well, it seems you can't take this Earth Vein away."

Yun Lintian nodded gently and explained everything to Nantian Fengyu.

Upon hearing this, Nantian Fengyu asked. "What should we do? This place is clearly a dead end."

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "Maybe we can try to walk back. Perhaps our position will change again."

Nantian Fengyu nodded and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, Hongyue's expression changed as she noticed a spatial fluctuation in the air above the pond. "Watch out!"

Yun Lintian jolted up by Hongyue's sudden cry and looked toward the pond. At this moment, he saw a huge stone appear out of thin air and fall into the pond.

Arghhhh—

Immediately, the entire space was filled with endlessly painful wails and roars, causing Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu to clutch their heads in pain. They felt as though countless blades stung into their souls, trying to tear them into pieces.

"Big Brother Yun!" Linlin cried out and released her power, filling everything around Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu with lightning sparks.

However, her effort was futile. It didn't stop the attack in the slightest.

Seeing Yun Lintian in pain, Qingqing was so angry. She jumped out of his shoulder as her entire body glowed in a deep green light. "How dare you hurt Big Brother Yun!?"

An apocalyptic windstorm abruptly filled the space, sweeping every blade of grass and bone away.

In that instant, the pain in Yun Lintian's soul eased a lot. Without thinking further, he summoned the Gate of Beyond Heaven and dragged everyone into it.

Thud!

Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu landed heavily nearby Misty Lake with blood flowing out of their eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.

"Big Brother Yun!" Linlin and Qingqing cried anxiously when they saw this scene.

Swoosh!

Hongyue and Lauya immediately appeared beside them. Without thinking further, Hongyue waved her hand, sending Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu into the soul lake in the distance.

Lauya quickly touched their foreheads and injected her wood energy into them.

The injury on their souls was not light. If it was late for another few seconds, they would have become lifeless corpses by now.

While Lauya was treating them, Hongyue recalled the earlier scene in her mind. The stone that suddenly appeared above the pond was, without a doubt, a meticulous trap planned by someone.

The person who did this must understand the formation art and the Golden Mountain very well. Otherwise, it was impossible to know Yun Lintian's position and activate the trap.

Who could it be?

"Hmm? He actually survives?" Somewhere in the Golden Mountain Ruins, Xing Chen said in surprise while sitting on a chair.

Beside him was the old man, Lan Cao.

The two of them had come here with one purpose, which was to borrow the power of this place to kill Yun Lintian.

A worn-out book was opened on the table before them, and a rough map could be seen in it. If one looked closely, it seemed to be the map of the Golden Mountain Ruins.

Xing Chen was confident in killing Yun Lintian here because of this.

After failing to kill Yun Lintian last time, Xing Chen had spent all his time studying Yun Lintian's movement in the past. He then figured out a pattern. Yun Lintian seemed to chase after the mythical realms and a place where elemental energy gathered heavily, such as the Boundless Desert.

Since he knew this, he made a guess that Yun Lintian would come to the Golden Mountain Ruins one day. This made him come up with such a killing method. f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

The book in front of him had been kept inside the Star Gazing Palace's library for ages. Although it wasn't complete, it was enough for Xing Chen to understand the structure of the Golden Mountain's entry-level.

It also allowed him to master some formations and seals in this place. The trap Yun Lintian faced earlier was naturally his handwriting.
