Chapter 1982 Beheading Operation (1)

"Leaving?" A pang of disappointment struck Yang Wu's heart, but he understood. After witnessing Yun Lintian's "magical power," he knew they were no longer on the same plane.

"Don't be sad, Uncle Wu. It's not a permanent goodbye," Yang Ningchang said softly.

"Of course," Yang Wu nodded with a forced smile. He glanced at the facilities and asked, "When do I start?"

Yun Lintian spoke. "I will take everyone to a location first."

With a wave of his hand, the Gate of Beyond Heaven materialized before them.

"Boss, what is that?" Lei Hao exclaimed, startled by the majestic gate's sudden appearance.

"Follow me," Yun Lintian said, pushing open the gate and stepping through.

Yang Ningchang, Lynn, Lei Hao, and Yang Wu exchanged a brief glance before following Yun Lintian into the unknown.

A moment later, they found themselves in a world unlike any they had ever known.

Within the Land of Beyond Heaven, nestled amidst pearlescent clouds, lay a spectacle that defied mortal comprehension. A cerulean lake, vast as the sky itself, shimmered with an otherworldly luminescence.

At the lake's heart rose seven ethereal towers, each a masterpiece carved from moonlight and spun from starlight.

Their spires, impossibly tall and impossibly delicate, pierced the very heavens. Luminescent flowers bloomed upon their pearlescent walls, their petals shimmering with a soft, inner light. Tiny, iridescent birds flitted between the towers, their wings trailing stardust.

A magnificent waterfall cascaded down the side of a nearby mountain, its water a shimmering ribbon woven from moonlight. As it plunged into the lake, it created a symphony of sound, a melody that echoed with the whispers of ancient deities.

The mist rising from the falls shimmered with a rainbow halo, a testament to the otherworldly beauty of the scene.

Exotic flora, unseen in the mortal realm, carpeted the landscape around the lake. Trees with leaves like spun silver and blossoms the color of amethyst swayed gently in an ever-present breeze.

The air thrummed with a subtle energy, refreshing and pure, a stark contrast to the sparse spiritual energies of the mortal world.

Yang Ningchang and the others were speechless, utterly captivated by the ethereal scenery.

"Welcome to the Land of Beyond Heaven," Yun Lintian explained, offering a brief introduction. "Think of it as a pocket world, similar to those found in fantastical novels."

Following the completion of the Beyond Heaven Relics, the Land of Beyond Heaven transformed rapidly. Many things here had changed, so much so that even Yun Lintian wasn't fully familiar with it all.

"Well, displaying my full power here would be difficult. I don't want to ruin this place." Yun Lintian admitted. "However, I can show you a glimpse."

With that, he raised his hand. Images of the Azure Dragon, the Divine Phoenix, the Golden Crow, the White Tiger, the Black Turtle, and the Vermilion Bird materialized in the sky.

Lei Hao and the others gaped in awe, their mouths hanging wide open as they stared at the legendary beasts.

"So, the mythical creatures of legend truly exist," Yang Wu muttered in disbelief.

"See the little guy over there?" Yun Lintian pointed towards Gui Xuan, who splashed playfully in the lake with Hei Shou. "That's the current Black Turtle God. His name is Gui Xuan."

Everyone turned their attention to Gui Xuan, their gazes filled with awe. While their knowledge of the profound path might be limited, they grasped the immense significance of his existence.

"Then, Linlin..." Lynn's voice trailed off, seemingly piecing something together.

"She's the daughter of the former White Tiger God," Yun Lintian confirmed.

The way they looked at Linlin shifted dramatically.

"Don't be so uptight," Yun Lintian chuckled. "Linlin is adorable and friendly, really."

Despite Yun Lintian's reassurance, Linlin flashed her sharp teeth at Yang Ningchang and Lynn, sending shivers down their spines.

Noticing this, Yun Lintian gently stroked Linlin's head. "Be good, Linlin. They're your sisters."

Linlin let out a soft "Mhm" in response.

"Alright, let's head inside," Yun Lintian brought everyone to the villa.

Meanwhile, as Yun Lintian familiarized his companions with the Land of Beyond Heaven, news of Zhu Tianlong's corruption scandal reached a fever pitch, spreading like wildfire across the globe.

Somewhere in Europe, a group of people watched the news reports unfold on a screen, their expressions grim.

"Our key player has fallen," a middle-aged man seated to the right of the head seat spoke gravely. "This is a significant setback for our upcoming operation."

"He cannot stay," a woman with a cold demeanor stated. "I'm authorizing activating our sleeper agents in that region."

"Authorization granted."
