Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2355: Fallen God (5)



Yun Lintian, though visibly exhausted, stood tall, his gaze unwavering. The Heaven Piercing Sword and the seven elemental swords hovered around him, their blades still humming with residual energy. His body, though battered and bruised, radiated an aura of unwavering resolve.

He looked at Zhan You, a flicker of respect crossing his eyes. "You are a worthy opponent," he said, his voice carrying a hint of admiration.

Zhan You let out a hollow laugh, his fiery form flickering. "I have lived for countless eons," he said, his voice filled with a wistful melancholy. "I have witnessed the rise and fall of gods, the birth and death of stars. But never have I encountered a foe such as you."

He paused, his gaze meeting Yun Lintian's. "You are the first...to truly push me to my limits," he continued, a hint of pride creeping into his voice. "You are the first...to make me feel...alive."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Yun Lintian nodded silently, acknowledging Zhan You's words. He understood the War God's sentiment, the yearning for a challenge, a true test of his strength.

"But this battle...is not over yet," Zhan You declared, his voice regaining a measure of its former power.

He raised his broken crimson blade, its flickering aura suddenly flaring with a renewed intensity. The shattered fragments of his armor coalesced around him, forming a makeshift shield that glowed with an infernal light.

"I will not fall...not yet," he roared, his voice echoing through the ravaged battlefield.

A surge of energy erupted from his body, the very air around him warping and twisting under the strain. The space beneath his feet distorted crazily, the crimson sky above swirling with a chaotic energy that threatened to tear the dimension apart.

Yun Lintian watched as Zhan You gathered his remaining strength, a sense of anticipation building within him. He knew that Zhan You was preparing one final, desperate attack, a last- ditch effort to turn the tide of the battle.

He tightened his grip on the Heaven Piercing Sword, its golden light pulsating in response to his resolve. The elemental swords, their blades humming with anticipation, circled around him, ready to unleash their combined might.

"Come," he said, his voice calm but resolute. "Let's end this."

Zhan You, his eyes burning with a fiery determination, charged forward, his crimson blade held high. The spectral warriors, their numbers now drastically reduced, followed in his wake, their ghostly forms shimmering with a renewed ferocity.

BOOOM!

The battlefield erupted once more in a chaotic clash of energy and steel. Zhan You, fueled by his unyielding will, fought with a desperation that belied his injuries. His attacks were wild, his movements unpredictable, his every strike aimed at ending the battle in a single, decisive blow.

Yun Lintian, his movements a blur of motion, countered each attack with a precision that bordered on the supernatural. He weaved through the spectral army, his sword flashing like a vengeful spirit, severing their ethereal forms with effortless ease.

The elemental swords, their blades a symphony of destruction, danced around him, their attacks a coordinated assault on Zhan You's defenses. Fire, ice, lightning, earth, wind, metal, and wood intertwined, creating a chaotic maelstrom that threatened to consume the War God.

But Zhan You, his resilience seemingly boundless, endured the onslaught. He deflected the swords' attacks with his blade, his movements a blur of motion as he countered each strike with his own.

The battle raged on, a relentless exchange of blows that shook the very foundation of the domain. Yun Lintian, his strength waning, knew he couldn't maintain this pace forever. He needed to find an opening, a weakness in Zhan You's defenses.

As if sensing his thoughts, Zhan You suddenly roared, his voice echoing through the battlefield. He raised his crimson blade, its fiery aura intensifying until it resembled a miniature sun.

"Heaven Severing!" he bellowed, his voice filled with a primal fury.

He swung his blade downwards, unleashing a wave of pure destruction, a force that seemed capable of cleaving the heavens themselves. The very air crackled with energy, the space beneath their feet trembled, and the crimson sky above seemed to split open, revealing a glimpse of the void beyond.

Yun Lintian's eyes narrowed in alarm. He recognized the sheer power behind Zhan You's attack, the culmination of his divine energy and unyielding will. He knew he couldn't block it head-on.

In a split-second decision, he channeled the power of the spatial laws, his figure blurring as he vanished from sight. He reappeared behind Zhan You, the Heaven Piercing Sword glowing with a blinding light.

"Rending Heaven," he uttered, his voice a chilling whisper.

But before he could strike, Zhan You, his senses honed by countless battles, reacted with lightning speed. He spun around, his crimson blade meeting Yun Lintian's sword in a deafening clash.

BOOOOM-

The impact sent shockwaves through the battlefield, shattering the remaining spectral warriors and leaving a crater in the blood-soaked earth. The two warriors, locked in a deadly embrace, struggled for dominance, their weapons straining against each other.

"Ugh!" Yun Lintian gritted his teeth, channeling every ounce of his remaining strength into the Heaven Piercing Sword. He could feel the strain on his body, the immense power of Zhan You's attack pushing him to his limits.

With a final, desperate surge of energy, he infused the Heaven Piercing Sword with the combined power of the Great Law of Life and the Great Law of Death. The sword pulsed with a chaotic energy, its golden light now tinged with an eerie darkness.

"This is the end!" he roared, his voice echoing through the battlefield.

Rumble-

The Heaven Piercing Sword erupted in a blinding flash of light, unleashing a wave of pure chaos that engulfed Zhan You.

"Ugh!?" The War God, caught off guard by the sudden surge of power, cried out in surprise as the chaotic energy tore through his defenses, shattering his makeshift shield and searing his

flesh.

His crimson blade, unable to withstand the onslaught, shattered into a million pieces, its fiery aura dissipating into the air. Zhan You stumbled backward, his colossal form now riddled with wounds, his eyes wide with disbelief.

"This... power... How?" he gasped, his voice barely a whisper.

The chaotic energy continued to ravage his body, tearing through his flesh and bone, consuming his life force with every passing second. He looked down at his chest, a gaping hole where his heart once resided.

A sense of peace washed over him, a strange calmness in the face of his impending demise. He looked up at Yun Lintian, his eyes filled with a mixture of awe and acceptance.

"You...have won," he said, his voice barely audible. "But don't be complacent... Remember."

With a final sigh, Zhan You's form crumbled, his body disintegrating into motes of light that scattered across the battlefield...
