Chapter 1044 Revelation

Master Bai laughed for a while and said to Yun Lintian. "Do you know why I brought you here?"

Yun Lintian frowned slightly and said nothing.

Master Bai said further. "As you can see, this place has been infected by this filthy dark energy. Because this world's energy is too thin that I cannot use this immortal mountain to purify it. That's why I need to borrow someone's hand. And that person is you."

He looked at Yun Lintian deeply and chuckled. "Unfortunately, you are too stupid to use all of your power to help that little girl. Alas, look like my effort is in vain."

"Immortal mountain?" Yun Lintian was puzzled. "What's the origin of this place?"

Master Bai scoffed. "With your current strength, you are not qualified to know it."

A trace of killing intent flashed through his eyes as he said coldly. "Believe it or not? I will kill you right now and take the Beyond Heaven King's inheritance away."

Yun Lintian stared at the white owl for a while and chuckled. "Although I have lost my strength, it doesn't mean I can't see your strength."

He paused for a second and said with a smile. "You are nothing but a mere Spirit Profound Beast, yet you dare to threaten me with such a stupid threat?"

Master Bai's face turned gloomy. "It's more than enough to kill you."

Clang!

The Heaven Piercing Sword suddenly appeared in the air and pointed its sharp tip at Master Bai.

Yun Lintian smiled and said. "Do you want to try it?"

Master Bai's pupils shrank in shock when he saw the appearance of the sword. "This… Fleeting Cloud Sword Emperor's Heaven Piercing Sword!?"

Before this, he felt a domineering aura coming out from the sword in Yun Lintian's hand, but he didn't think about it much. After all, how could the Beyond Heaven King's successor be poor? Having one or two divine weapons was normal.

However, he didn't expect this sword was actually the legendary Heaven Piercing Sword… What was wrong with this tiny world? A divine emperor's treasure trove or something?

Since Master Bai and the Heavenly Cloud Immortal Mountain descended into this world, he had never been to the outside world even once. That was why he was oblivious to almost everything out there.

The appearance of the Beyond Heaven King's successor already brought him a great shock, and now there was this sword. He didn't know what to say anymore.

"Ke…Kehaha! I'm just joking with you. Why are you so serious?" Master Bai laughed awkwardly while sweating profusely. Even though Yun Lintian could not use the sword at the moment, the sword itself was enough to chop him into pieces. Who would dare to be arrogant further?

He hurriedly changed the topic, fearing Yun Lintian would make a move on him. "Ahem! Do you want to know the origin of this place, right? Let me tell you."

"This place is called Heavenly Cloud Immortal Mountain and, of course, the previous owner was called Heavenly Cloud Immortal Master… Well, he was an old bastard. Let's just forget about him." Master Bai said with resentment.

"Tell me more about him." Yun Lintian didn't let him go.

"You…" Master Bai wanted to retort, but the sword was pointing at his forehead, shutting his mouth immediately.

"Alright. His name is Yun Yi. He was famous for his shamelessness, and his strength could be compared to the owner of this Heaven Piercing Sword. Of course, he was far inferior to your master, Beyond Heaven King." Master Bai reluctantly explained.

"He spent ten thousand years to create this mountain. That was when everyone in the Divine Realm started to call him the Heavenly Cloud Immortal Master."

A disdainful smile appeared on Master Bai's face as he said further. "You don't know this. He was so shameless that he bribed so many people in order to spread his name. Of course, his title naturally came from him. He named it himself."

Yun Lintian's face twitched slightly. Indeed, this Yun Yi was shameless enough.

"You use the past tense. Is he already…?" He asked curiously.

"How could a shameless bastard like him be alive? Of course. He is already dead!" Master Bai said without any good feeling. "If it wasn't for him, how could I, a dignified White Owl Emperor, end up like this?"

"How did he die?" Yun Lintian asked further.

"This… I cannot tell you." Master Bai hurriedly explained. "When a person reaches the Divine Emperor Realm's peak and successfully transcends to the legendary realm, Celestial Transcendence Realm, his or her name cannot be mentioned casually. Otherwise, they will know your location directly."

"So you mean his enemy is in this realm?" Yun Lintian immediately understood everything. No wonder Hongyue kept insisting on telling him about those enemies' names.

"Yeah. Unless that person has already died. You can't mention their name." Master Bai nodded. "Hehe. You, a successor of him, have inherited his debt by default. I wonder what would happen if those old monsters knew about your existence."

His eyes were full of gloating when he spoke this.

"Can you tell me about Beyond Heaven King? Who exactly is he? And how's his strength?" Yun Lintian didn't care about Master Bai's gloating and asked further.

Master Bai's eyes turned strange. "You don't know it?"

Seeing that Yun Lintian genuinely had no idea, Master Bai muttered to himself. "What is that guy planning?… Is he trying to kill his successor?"

A moment later, he explained. "Beyond Heaven King is known as the number one celestial being who rules all the thirty-two Divine Emperor Realms. His strength can be said to be unfathomable. No one has ever seen his depth before. In short, no one in the whole Divine Realm can be his opponent."

A frown appeared on Master Bai's face as he continued. "In fact, I don't even know how he fell. Who could force him to a dead end? This is a mystery that had yet unraveled."

He took a deep look at Yun Lintian and said. "Perhaps you are the key to this mystery."

Yun Lintian's eyes narrowed slightly. With simple thinking, the Beyond Heaven King was already the pinnacle of existence in the whole Divine Realm and had no opponent. Therefore, the only possibility was that his enemy was someone beyond that… A true god?
