The Beyond Heaven King's Crown trembled, constantly emitting brilliant black and white lights. The next moment, all the marquise jewels on eight tassels also released bright multi-colored lights: red, blue, yellow, green, dark green, gold, purple, and gray, respectively.
Yun Lintian, along with everyone else in this place, was startled by the sudden event and struggled to understand the current situation. They could only stand there, blankly, in a black and white world.
The multicolored lights slowly intertwined, forming a ring of light before descending onto Yun Lintian's head.
"Argh!" Yun Lintian immediately screamed in pain as the halo of light touched his head. He could feel an irresistible force attempting to invade his body and soul.
At that moment, the Beyond Heaven King's Crown suddenly flew out of his hand and hovered in the air in front of Yun Lintian. It spun around for a while, as if observing him, before shooting straight towards his forehead and completely disappearing into his head afterwards.
"AHH!" Yun Lintian's painful cry grew louder. A wave of pain emanated from a powerful force inside his body. He felt as if every part of his body had been torn apart. His bones started to crack, and his profound vein slowly ripped apart.
"Lintian!" Yun Qianxue cried out anxiously and ran to his side. However, she could not get close to him because an invisible force pushed her away.
Yun Ruanyu retrieved Yun Qianxue and created a protective barrier around them. She turned to the monitor and asked, "Can you tell me what is going on?"
"The Beyond Heaven King's Crown is transforming the Master's body." Lynn replied without providing any further explanation.
Yun Qingrou carefully examined Yun Lintian's body from a distance. She discovered that his body had undergone a massive transformation. His profound vein was constantly being torn apart and reconnected.
"There shouldn't be any danger." Yun Qingrou said.
Yun Qianxue watched as Yun Lintian gritted his teeth, occasionally letting out a muffled cry. She felt as if her heart had been shredded into pieces. It was the first time she had witnessed him suffering like this. The feeling of powerlessness constantly tormented her soul as she could only watch him without any means to help.
Yun Lintian was convulsing uncontrollably as he fell to the floor, rolling from side to side. The indescribable pain continued. It was a pain that far surpassed the capability of a human to endure. No matter how strong Yun Lintian's will was, he could not resist and take it if this continued any further. The multicolored lights filled his vision. His mind became blurred, slowly losing consciousness bit by bit, until he eventually fainted shortly afterward.
The black and white lights still enveloped the Library, but the intense resistance surrounding Yun Lintian had already dissipated.
"Please bring the Master to the Profound Spirit Lake." Lynn instructed.
"Hurry!" Yun Qianxue was the first to react. She anxiously urged Yun Meilan.
Yun Meilan quickly grabbed Yun Lintian and brought him outside, placing him in the lake.
"How is he?" Yun Qianxue arrived at the lake and anxiously asked Yun Qingrou.
"He has lost all of his profound strength." Yun Qingrou said. "His body is still undergoing transformation. I think he will become stronger after this, but I can't say by how much."
Yun Qianxue didn't hesitate to jump into the lake and swim toward Yun Lintian. Yun Qingrou wanted to stop her because her body was still weak at this moment, but Yun Meilan prevented her from speaking.
"Let her." Yun Meilan said, using her spiritual sense to lock onto Yun Qianxue. If something were to happen, she would rescue her immediately.
Yun Qingrou fell silent and continued to concentrate on Yun Lintian's body.
"Reincarnation, this place, and that crown." Yun Ruanyu muttered to herself while looking at Yun Lintian, falling into deep thought. She tried to unravel the mystery of his life.
Meanwhile, Yun Huanxin and Yun Lingwei silently looked at each other. They didn't know what to do in this moment.
Yun Qianxue arrived beside Yun Lintian and checked his body with concern. She despised herself for being useless whenever something happened to Yun Lintian. Yun Qianxue pulled Yun Lintian into her arms and watched him with heartache.
At this moment, Yun Lintian found himself in a familiar, dark world. It was the same as what he encountered during The Sun's incident before. He looked around for a while but didn't find anything.
"I didn't feel pain anymore?" Yun Lintian muttered, confused. The current situation was different from the time he faced The Sun.
Just as his voice dropped, he felt a piercing pain in his head as if he had been stabbed by tens of thousands of blades. It caused him to clutch his head, kneel on the ground, and let out a painful cry.
The pain continued for a minute before it disappeared. Yun Lintian found a bunch of new knowledge flooding his mind.
"Beyond Heaven Profound Vein? Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture?" Yun Lintian subconsciously uttered these strange words while trying to comprehend all the information.
When Yun Lintian carefully read the information about the Beyond Heaven Profound Vein, his eyes widened in shock at the discovery. The Beyond Heaven Profound Vein was a unique profound vein that belonged to the Beyond Heaven King. It had the ability to control every element, from fire, water, and lightning to spatial, light, and darkness.
It was not uncommon to find a profound vein with a high affinity for multiple elements within one body. However, finding one that contains all compatible elements without losing balance was extremely rare.
Yun Lintian had a variant profound vein with three elements - wood, water, and fire. Although he had a strong affinity for these elements, he couldn't ignore the fact that the water and wood contradicted the wire element, which significantly impacted his progress. Even though Yun Lintian chose to focus on only one element, he couldn't be compared to Yun Qianxue's Pure Water Profound Vein, which was a pure element profound vein.
Furthermore, the profound art that could combine multiple elements was extremely scarce. That's why the difference between a variant element profound vein and a pure element Profound Vein was massive, as the latter had a significantly higher potential than the former.
In Yun Lintian's opinion, the Beyond Heaven Profound Vein was the ultimate pinnacle of Profound Veins. It could achieve complete harmony among the elements. No matter what profound art Yun Lintian chose to practice, his practice speed could be the same as those who had a pure elemental profound vein, and even better since he could practice in any element.
"Ha... Hahaha! Here comes another plot armor!" After understanding this, Yun Lintian suddenly burst into silly laughter. For 16 years, he had been waited for this moment for 16 long years - and it finally came! At this moment, he wanted to kneel and kowtow to the God of Transmigration and his old man for bestowing all of these cheats upon him.
Yun Lintian laughed like a fool for a full minute before he calmed down and examined the information in the Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture. It was a primordial rank profound art, exclusively for the owner of the Beyond Heaven Profound Vein.
The Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture was divided into nine levels. Each level would tremendously increase the practitioner's resistance to every element. To put it simply, if Yun Lintian had practiced until the ninth level, he would become immune to any element. His opponent would be unable to harm him with an elemental attack.
However, the requirement was that Yun Lintian had to practice Essence, Body, and Soul simultaneously. He could not progress further in his practice if one among them was left behind the others by two levels.
Yun Lintian understood this point very well. He remembered that most of the protagonists in many novels would always practice Body, Essence, and Soul at the same time. Thus, he wasn't surprised when he saw the requirement. On the contrary, he was actually very excited. From today onwards, he could become the protagonist of his own story.
Practicing the Essence was the easiest one. Yun Lintian could stay and absorb profound energy from Profound Stones. The process of Body Refinement required a significant amount of resources, such as pills and a suitable environment, to strengthen and condition the body. The only problem was how to nourish his soul? Currently, Yun Lintian had no idea about it. He could only ask Lynn later.
"Who was the previous Beyond Heaven King? That old man?" Yun Lintian set aside the Beyond Heaven Scripture and pondered the possibility of his father being the Beyond Heaven King.
From the little evidence he had, Yun Lintian suspected that his father was the Beyond Heaven King in the past, and there was a possibility that he was still alive.
"Where did he go? Why did he bring me to Earth? And why did he have to go through such a troublesome method of letting me die and then revive later?" Yun Lintian racked his brain trying to find answers.
"Never mind. I'll slowly think about it later... How can I leave this place?" Yun Lintian decided to stop overthinking and looked around the area, attempting to find an exit by trying different approaches.
Several minutes later, he gave up and helplessly sat on the ground. Yun Lintian, having nothing else to do, decided to give the Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture a try.
