1527 Cloud Keeper
The black-robed man tried his best to block Yun Lintian's attack by conjuring several layers of profound barrier. However, great strength erupted from Yun Lintian's arm midway, and the crimson fla instantly burned all the barriers away, allowing Yun Lintian's punch to hit the black-robed man's chest.
BOOM—
Yun Lintian's fist instantly shattered the black-robed man's ribcage, and the scorching fla wholly engulfed him. His hair, clothes, and skin were all rcilessly burned away, turning the man into a human torch.
The body of the Divine Sovereign was extrely tough. Even though the black-robed man's appearance was miserable, Yun Lintian knew he was far from death.
However, when Yun Lintian was about to subdue the black-robed man, a black mist suddenly burst out from the latter's body, and his entire body lted into a pool of black liquid, leaving Yun Lintian dumbfounded.
Yun Lintian quickly arrived beside the black pool and touched it gently. "Poison?"
His heart turned cold imdiately upon realizing this. Although there were plenty of Divine Sovereigns around the Divine Realm, it was still considered rare compared to the number of people. The black-robed man could easily beco a realm king of a middle-realm star if he wanted to, but he didn't hesitate to kill himself… Who could possibly be his master?
Thinking of this, Yun Lintian was even more certain that the black-robed man had sothing to do with Shan Jinhao.
Yun Lintian glanced around briefly, and his figure flashed, disappearing from the place.
At this mont, soone was watching Yun Lintian from the void. This person was rather old, seemingly in his eighties. His complexion was cold and voided of emotion. He was one of the Hidden Mountain God Realm's elders, Shan Gusun.
As Yun Lintian expected, the black-robed man was sent by the Hidden Mountain God Realm. More precisely, it was Shan Gusun who did it. His purpose was simple. He wanted to test Yun Lintian's strength.
"Fighting a peak Divine Sovereign while he's a peak Divine Origin… The second generation Beyond Heaven King is indeed born to destroy heavens." Shan Gusun muttered to himself.
He had lived for over a hundred thousand years and witnessed the Beyond Heaven King's brilliance with his own eyes. At that ti, the Beyond Heaven King was already an existence who defied all the commonsense, but Yun Lintian was even scarier… Such a person could not be left behind. Otherwise, he would definitely grow into a monstrous powerhouse.
Shan Gusun's eyes gradually turned sharp. His half-step God Emperor power gushed out, and his Divine Sense firmly locked onto Yun Lintian, who was rushing away from the city.
"Is it fun? Bullying a junior." A cold male voice resounded from the void, and Shan Gusun's face changed drastically.
Without hesitation, his entire body turned into a black mist and disappeared into the void.
"Running fast enough, huh?" In the void, the man surnad Yun stared at the disappearing Shan Gusun with a cold smile. Following that, his figure vanished from the place and reappeared in the starry sky outside the Mystic God Emperor.
"Oh? You're not running anymore?" The man said in surprise when he saw Shan Gusun waiting for him.
Shan Gusun stared at the man carefully, and a trace of astonishnt could be seen in the depths of his eyes. "Everyone thought the Cloud Keepers had been gone along with the Beyond Heaven King in that incident… It seems we all were deceived."
As one of the oldest powerhouses, Shan Gusun naturally recognized the man in front of him. This person was the leader of the Cloud Keepers, the Beyond Heaven King's first guardian group, Yun Yi.
In the past, Yun Yi was relatively low-key and rarely appeared in public, but Shan Gusun knew very well how powerful this person was. Even Shan Gusun's master, the Hidden Mountain God Emperor, had to act cautiously in front of this man.
Shan Gusun took a deep breath and said further. "I see… Everyone has underestimated the Beyond Heaven King. He left such a good hand to protect his successor."
The man in white, Yun Yi, smiled coldly and said. "Do you want to do it or do it yourself?"
Shan Gusun went silent for a mont and let out a long sigh. "We shouldn't be greedy in the first place."
While speaking this, Shan Gusun secretly sent a ssage to his master. However, Shan Gusun suddenly widened his eyes in shock when he discovered he couldn't send the ssage to his master.
"It's been several years, but all of you never change your thod." Yun Yi's cold voice echoed beside Shan Gusun's ears.
Before Shan Gusun could react, his entire body was already engulfed by a thick white mist.
Shan Gusun hurriedly urged his divine power to get out of the place, but a sharp pain suddenly ca from behind his head. A cold blade had already pierced into his skull all the way to the space between his brows.
Shan Gusun's aura was thrown into disarray, and his entire body spasd nonstop. His consciousness gradually dissipated before turning completely black. The last thing that appeared in his mind was his master's face. He wanted to remind his master of the existence of Yun Yi and let him stop greedily after Yun Lintian… Unfortunately, he didn't have such a luxury chance anymore.
Yun Yi pulled the long sword out of Shan Gusun's skull and waved his hand, storing the latter's body away as if nothing had happened here.
He turned to look at thy Mystic God Realm and muttered to himself. "I'm looking forward to seeing you on the battlefield… Don't let us down, little master."
With that, his figure turned into a white mist and disappeared from the place.
After shuttling through forests and mountains for a while, Yun Lintian ca to a halt when he discovered the Divine Sense that was originally locked on his body was gone.
"Don't tell that person helped ?" Yun Lintian imdiately figured it out. The owner of the Divine Sense was obviously a peak Divine Emperor. In any case, it should not just disappear like that. Unless he was driven away by soone.
Yun Lintian let out a long breath and said. "Forget it. I owe him this ti."
He didn't want to receive further help from the Beyond Heaven King's people, but since it had already happened, he would find a chance to repay it.
Yun Lintian looked around briefly and decided to find a small town to stay in until the Shen Clan
gathering event.
