Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 425 - Fighting Own Shadow

While Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao looked at each other in shock, the rest had confused expressions on their face. They had never heard about the Divine Moon Clan before.

Hongyue did not intend to explain anything. She changed her sitting posture to be more comfortable and said. "Do you see the doors in this place?"

Everyone put their confusion aside and looked at several doors on both sides.

"The next stage is simple. You have to choose one door to enter and conquer the thing inside." Hongyue said expressionlessly. Her gaze swept over Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao briefly, as if she had something on her mind.

A tall man behind Yun Lintian suddenly raised his hand and asked cautiously. "Princess Hongyue, can you tell us what kind of thing is in there?"

Hongyue curled her lips and said. "I can only tell all of you this. It will be something you fear the most."

Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly. He could roughly guess about it. It should be a kind of illusion trial.

"Since everyone is ready, you can start now." Hongyue waved her hand impatiently.

The crowd looked at each other with hesitation. No one dared to step out.

Yun Lintian thought for a moment and turned around to look at the crowd. "Everyone should prepare yourself first before choosing the door. I'll enter first."

Before walking away, Yun Lintian sent a sound transmission to Lin Xinyao, Yang Mengli, and Hua Wanru. "This should be a kind of illusion trial. You should pay attention to your mental power."

The three women did not know how Yun Lintian knew about it, but they still nodded their heads and sat down, adjusting their conditions to the best.

Looking at several doors on the wall, Yun Lintian didn't even carefully check on it and randomly chose one to enter under Hongyue's playful gaze.

Yun Lintian opened the door and walked into it. A moment later, he found himself standing in a white room with no ventilation. 

Just as he looked around, the room suddenly turned completely dark before returning to its original state again. However, Yun Lintian found a person standing not far away before him this time. He was instantly taken aback upon seeing this person's features.

"This is too cliché, right?" Yun Lintian's mouth twitched. The person who stood before him had everything similar to him. It was as if he had stood in front of a mirror.

Before entering this place, Yun Lintian had already expected this. According to the novels he had read, when it came to the illusion trial, the protagonist would always face his clone, followed by the cliche narration like 'He never fears anything, except himself.'

Yun Lintian wanted to protest that he feared many things, such as ghosts or flying cockroaches. Why did Hongyue give him this clone?

Without waiting for Yun Lintian to lament further, a spear that was a hundred percent resembled the White Dragon Spear silently appeared in the clone's hand. Yun Lintian's clone skillfully wielded it a few times before pointing it at Yun Lintian with a wicked grin on his face.

Yun Lintian was speechless and wanted to complain that his grin wasn't as ugly as this. However, when he was about to make a move, the clone had already thrust the spear toward him while releasing a horrible crimson flame.

"Shit! Using a big move in the open right away? That's not me at all." Yun Lintian hastily dodged to the side with Shadow Step as he recognized this move from the clone. It was no other than one of his trump cards, Imperishable Flame.

The clone seemed to predict Yun Lintian's move beforehand. When the latter executed Shadow Step, the clone had also done the same and reappeared beside Yun Lintian like a ghost. 

Yun Lintian was amazed by the clone's swift reaction. It was like the clone could read his mind. Without hesitation, Yun Lintian took the White Dragon Spear out and lung forward to the incoming spear.

Boom!

The collision between the two spears ended up a draw, and both of them were sent flying. When they were about to land, both of them pierced their spears on the ground, serving as a pole for stabilizing themselves.

Following that, they executed Shadow Step simultaneously and met in midair. The spears in their hands were brought forward and burst out with tyrannical dragon's cries.

Roar—

Two lightning dragons immediately intertwined, trying to bite each other off. Once again, the result ended up a draw. Yun Lintian and the clone bounced off and landed steadily on the ground.

A frown appeared on Yun Lintian's face. After two crashes, he could feel the clone's execution was more perfect than his. The only reason he could draw with the clone was that he had a better physique.

Yun Lintian swung his spear and muttered. "Let's see how strong you are."

Yun Lintian didn't intend to drag this battle on. His mind moved, and lightning sparks instantly appeared around him. He was going to finish the clone with The Thunder. 

In the next moment, a look of shock appeared on Yun Lintian's face as he saw the clone had also similarly mobilized The Thunder.

When the clone took the White Dragon Spear out, Yun Lintian did not feel anything as it was an item. However, The Thunder was entirely different. It was a unique existence in the whole world. This made him wonder whether the clone could summon the Gate of Beyond Heaven.

There was no time to think further. Yun Lintian immediately injected all of his profound energy into this attack.

The whole space rumbled, and countless python-like lightning danced wildly in the air. At this moment, Yun Lintian and the clone were like thunder gods. They stared at each other, waiting for the opposite part to act first.

"Since you don't move, then let me." Yun Lintian curled his lips and pointed his finger toward the sky.. Instantaneously, all the lightning pythons accepted his command and rushed toward the clone.
