Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2601: Merciless (1)



Mo Xie stared at the scene, his mind struggling to comprehend what had just happened. He had seen Yun Lintian's power before, had witnessed his mastery over various laws, but this... this was something else entirely.

It wasn't just the power of the Heaven Piercing Sword Art, nor was it merely the combination of the Great Law of Life and Death. It was as if Yun Lintian had tapped into a deeper, more fundamental force, a power that transcended the very concept of laws.

"What... what was that?" Mo Xie muttered, his voice barely above a whisper.

Yun Lintian, his form radiating with the chaotic aura, his eyes blazing with a cold, determined fire, did not respond. He simply raised the Heaven Piercing Sword once more, the blade humming with energy, ready to strike.

Mo Xie, for the first time in his long, immortal existence, felt a flicker of something he hadn't felt in millennia - fear. It wasn't the fear of pain, or even the fear of death. It was the fear of the unknown, the fear of facing a power he couldn't understand, a power that seemed to defy the very fabric of reality.

But he was Mo Xie, the first Ancient Devil God Ancestor. He had lived for countless ages, had seen empires rise and fall, had battled gods and demons alike. He would not be cowed by fear. He would not back down. Not now, not ever.

"НАН!!"

With a roar that echoed through the shattered realm, Mo Xie rallied his power. The dark energy around him surged, forming a massive, swirling vortex that seemed to devour the very light itself. The ground trembled under the weight of his power, and the sky above darkened, as if the universe itself was recoiling from his presence.

"You may have grown stronger, Yun Lintian," Mo Xie said, his voice resonating with power. "But you are still a mortal, bound by the laws of this realm. I, on the other hand, am a being of pure chaos, a creature of the void. And I will show you the true meaning of power!"

With a wave of his hand, he unleashed the full might of his dark energy. The vortex expanded, consuming everything in its path, twisting the very fabric of space and time. It was an attack that could obliterate worlds, extinguish stars, and erase entire galaxies from existence.

Yun Lintian, his form a beacon of chaotic light amidst the encroaching darkness, stood firm. He gripped the Heaven Piercing Sword, the blade pulsing with the power of the Great Laws of Life and Death, ready to meet Mo Xie's attack head-on.

But even as he prepared himself for the inevitable clash, he couldn't help but wonder. What had Mo Xie meant when he said he was a creature of the void? Was Mo Xie also the Lord of Chaos' creation?

As the vortex of darkness closed in, Yun Lintian closed his eyes for a moment, focusing his mind, channeling the power of the eight God Marks, the power of the Dragon God Soul, the power of the Tree of Life within him.

With a deep breath, he opened his eyes, and they blazed with a cold, determined fire. He raised the Heaven Piercing Sword, the blade humming with energy, and prepared to unleash his full power.

ROAR-

With a roar that echoed the ancient cry of the Dragon God, Yun Lintian charged forward, the Heaven Piercing Sword blazing with chaotic light. He poured all his power, all his will, all his determination into the blade, creating a force that could defy even the void itself.

As the sphere of darkness collided with the Heaven Piercing Sword, the world seemed to hold its breath.

BOOM!!!

The impact was cataclysmic. The force of the collision sent shockwaves rippling through the Azure World, shaking the very foundations of the realm. The sky above was torn asunder, revealing the infinite void beyond, a void that seemed to mirror the darkness in Mo Xie's heart.

Mo Xie was shocked to his core as he watched the sphere of darkness tremble violently. Before he could do anything, Yun Lintian suddenly let out a roar.

"Rending Heaven!" Yun Lintian roared, his voice echoing through the shattered realm.

The Heaven Piercing Sword blazed with an almost blinding light as it sliced through the sphere of darkness, cutting it in half, dispelling its power. The attack continued, tearing through the very fabric of space, heading straight for Mo Xie.

Mo Xie's eyes widened in alarm as he saw the attack coming. He quickly raised his hands, summoning a barrier of dark energy to shield himself. But it was no use. The Rending Heaven technique, imbued with the power of Chaos itself, was too strong, too pure.

The attack struck the barrier, and for a moment, it seemed as though it might hold. But then, with a deafening crack, the barrier shattered, and the Rending Heaven attack struck Mo Xie full force.

BOOM!!!

The impact sent Mo Xie flying backwards, his body crashing into the ground with a bone- jarring thud. The dark energy around him flickered wildly, his form momentarily losing its cohesion.

For the first time since the battle began, Mo Xie looked... vulnerable.

Yun Lintian didn't follow, as he stared at Mo Xie coldly.

As the dust settled, Mo Xie slowly rose to his feet, his body trembling, his dark energy flickering erratically. His eyes, once filled with confidence and mockery, now burned with a cold, hard fury.

"How dare you?" Mo Xie said, his voice low and dangerous, each word laced with a venomous rage.

It was the first time in his life that he had been beaten back to this point. It was unacceptable! With a roar, he summoned the full power of the Devil Eye. The sky above them darkened, and a massive, grotesque eye appeared, its pupil a swirling vortex of darkness. The eye radiated an overwhelming aura of malevolence, its gaze piercing through the very fabric of reality.

"Behold the power of the Devil Eye!" Mo Xie shouted, his voice echoing across the battlefield. "With this, I will crush you and everything you hold dear!"

The Devil Eye's gaze shifted, focusing on Yun Lintian. A beam of pure darkness shot forth, its power so immense that it seemed to devour the very light around it. The beam hurtled towards Yun Lintian, its speed and force unmatched.

Yun Lintian didn't flinch. He simply raised his sword, the chaotic aura around him condensing into a swirling vortex of energy. With a single, fluid motion, he swung the Heaven Piercing

Sword.
