Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2561: Sweep



Yun Lintian watched as Tantai Xue and Jian Yun disappeared into the void, the spatial rift closing behind them with a faint ripple. His chest heaved with exertion, blood trickling from the corner of his lips. He wiped it away with the back of his hand, his expression grim.

The battlefield around him was in chaos, the horde of creatures of chaos rampaging through the Golden Qilin Kingdom, their grotesque forms tearing through everything in their path. Qi Zongwen's men were struggling to hold the line, their formations crumbling under the relentless assault. The air was thick with the stench of blood and the screams of the dying.

Yun Lintian's eyes swept across the battlefield, his mind racing. He had no time to dwell on Jian Yun's sudden departure or Tantai Xue's escape. The immediate threat was the horde of chaos creatures, and they had to be dealt with-now.

"Qi Zongwen!" Yun Lintian shouted, his voice cutting through the chaos like a blade. "Get your men out of here! Now!"

Qi Zongwen, battered and bloodied, turned to look at Yun Lintian. His golden armor was cracked, and his aura flickered weakly, but his eyes still burned with determination. "Are you...?"

"I'll handle this," Yun Lintian said, his tone leaving no room for argument. "Get everyone to safety. This is beyond you now."

Qi Zongwen hesitated for a moment, then nodded. He barked orders to his men, and the Golden Qilin forces began to retreat, pulling back from the battlefield. The creatures of chaos surged forward, their grotesque forms closing in on Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian stood alone amidst the chaos, his Heaven Piercing Sword glowing with an ethereal light. He took a deep breath, centering himself as he prepared to unleash his full power.

The Great Laws of Life and Death surged within him, their chaotic energy intertwining with his divine energy. He could feel the power building within him, a storm of energy that threatened to tear him apart if he wasn't careful.

"Rending Heaven," Yun Lintian muttered, his voice low and steady. He raised his sword, the blade humming with power as he channeled the chaotic energy of the Great Laws. The air around him crackled with energy, and the ground beneath his feet began to fracture.

The creatures of chaos hesitated for a moment, sensing the immense power radiating from Yun Lintian. But their hesitation was short-lived. With a collective roar, they surged forward, their grotesque forms closing in on him.

Yun Lintian's eyes blazed with determination. He swung his sword in a wide arc, unleashing the Rending Heaven technique imbued with the chaotic energy of the Great Laws of Life and Death.

BOOM!

The energy erupted from the blade, a wave of destructive power that tore through the battlefield. The creatures of chaos were obliterated in an instant, their grotesque forms disintegrating into nothingness. The ground split apart, and the air itself seemed to shatter under the force of the attack.

The shockwave rippled outward, sweeping across the battlefield and leaving nothing but destruction in its wake. The horde of chaos creatures was wiped out, their presence erased as if they had never existed.

Yun Lintian stood amidst the devastation, his chest heaving with exertion. The power of the Rending Heaven technique had taken its toll, and he could feel the strain on his body. But he couldn't afford to rest. The battlefield was silent now, but the threat of the Lord of Chaos still loomed.

Qi Zongwen and his men watched from a distance, their expressions filled with awe and disbelief. They had never seen such power before, and it left them speechless.

Yun Lintian lowered his sword, the blade still glowing with residual energy. He turned to look at Qi Zongwen, his expression grim. "Is everyone safe?" he asked, his voice steady despite the exhaustion.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Qi Zongwen nodded, his voice filled with gratitude. "Thanks to you, we managed to retreat in time. You saved us."

Yun Lintian shook his head. "This is far from over. The Lord of Chaos won't stop here. We need to prepare for what's coming."

Qi Zongwen's expression hardened. "What do you need us to do?"

After witnessing Yun Lintian's strength, Qi Zongwen finally understood how foolish he had been to have such petty thoughts of keeping his disciples back then. Now, Yun Lintian no longer addressed him politely as before, and Qi Zongwen had nothing to complain about. He deserved such treatment.

Yun Lintian took a deep breath, his mind racing as he formulated a plan. "Gather your forces and fortify the kingdom. The Lord of Chaos will send more of his minions, and we need to be ready."

Qi Zongwen nodded, his eyes filled with determination. "We'll hold the line."

Yun Lintian gave a curt nod. His thoughts turned to Jian Yun. If Hongyue's suspicion was true that Jian Yun was the true spirit of the God Slaying Sword, Yun Lintian could already foresee what the Lord of Chaos was trying to do with him.

In the next encounter, Yun Lintian wasn't sure whether he could handle Jian Yun, as he had taken advantage of the fact that Jian Yun was being held back by his own soul. Once he was fully corrupted, it would be extremely difficult to go against him.

Yun Lintian turned to look at Qi Zongwen and asked, "Do you have a way to contact other regents?"

Qi Zongwen's expression turned solemn as he tried to contact the Endless Snow Empress. A moment later, his expression changed drastically, as he couldn't contact her.

Qi Zongwen tried a few more times, but to no avail. He then quickly contacted the other

regents.

Soon, the Eternal Night Empress, Ye Yingxi, responded. "Qi Zongwen? Are you under attack as

well?"

"Yes. We've just pushed them back. What about your side?" Qi Zongwen asked.

Inside the Eternal Night Palace, Ye Yingxi sat on the throne with blood flowing out of the corner of her mouth. Although she had managed to push the enemy back, the price she had to pay was quite high.

"It's not good here. I'm afraid I can't handle the next wave," Ye Yingxi answered truthfully as she wiped the blood off the corner of her mouth.

Her gaze swept across the ruins in front of her. Many people had fallen during the battle. It could be said that the Eternal Night Kingdom was half crippled now.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Ye Yingxi raised her head slightly to look at a figure that had just appeared in the distance.

"Xi Baihe?" Ye Yingxi's eyes flickered with surprise as she spoke. "How could you leave your

place?"
