Myth Beyond Heaven

2165 Enraged War God (2)

Zhan You's towering form cast a long, ominous shadow over the chamber, the air crackling with the oppressive heat radiating from his transformed body.

Yun Lintian, Dian Lei, and Yue Yun, though momentarily staggered by this display of overwhelming power, quickly regained their composure.

"Find a chance to run," Dian Lei sent a voice transmission to Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian glanced at Dian Lei in puzzlement. He couldn't understand Dian Lei's true intention. In the last encounter, Dian Lei had already spared him once, and now he deliberately helped him… What did he want to do?

Yun Lintian nodded subtly. The words, a mere whisper in his mind, were a lifeline in this overwhelming chaos. A flicker of understanding passed between them, a silent agreement forged in the crucible of battle.

Crackle!

A surge of electrifying energy crackled around Dian Lei, his form shimmering and distorting as if a thousand thunderstorms were converging upon him. His hair stood on end, each strand a lightning rod crackling with raw power.

"I've long wanted to fight you. Let's see if you are truly undefeated." Dian Lei's voice boomed like thunder, resonating throughout the chamber.

A blinding flash of light engulfed the chamber, and when it subsided, Dian Lei stood transformed. His once human form was now a towering figure, his skin crackling with electricity, his eyes glowing with the intensity of a thousand suns.

He was now the Thunder God, a being of pure elemental fury, a manifestation of the destructive and creative power of lightning.

The very air around him crackled with energy, each breath he took sending shockwaves through the chamber. In his hand, the lightning spear thrummed with power, its tip crackling with an arc of pure energy that seemed to defy the laws of nature.

Zhan You, despite his immense power, regarded Dian Lei with a hint of caution. He sensed a raw, untamed power within the Thunder God, a power that even he, in his True God form, could not easily dismiss.

"With just you?" Zhan You sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. "Do you truly believe that you can defeat me? A mere elemental godling dares to challenge me, a War God?"

Dian Lei's eyes narrowed, the lightning around him intensifying. "Hehe. Do you really think you are second to none within this Primal Chaos? Come! Let's fight!"

With a mighty roar, Dian Lei launched himself at Zhan You, his spear crackling with energy. The clash of their powers shook the very foundations of the chamber, the resulting shockwaves sending tremors through the earth.

BOOOOOM—

Lightning bolts and firestorms collided, creating a blinding maelstrom of energy that threatened to consume everything in its path. The two gods battled with the fury of natural forces unleashed, their every movement a display of raw, unbridled power.

Yue Yun retreated to Yun Lintian's side and raised a moonlit barrier to protect themselves.

"He's very strong," Yue Yun spoke with a solemn expression. "I'm afraid I am not his opponent."

Yun Lintian was surprised to hear this. In his eyes, Yue Yun was no inferior to Zhan You at all.

"Let's go," Yun Lintian immediately made a decision.

Yue Yun said nothing further and prepared to leave.

"Where are you going?" Zhan You uttered coldly.

The air crackled and twisted as Zhan You's voice reverberated through the chamber, the flames around him surging like a ravenous beast. The searing heat intensified, the very stones of the chamber groaning and warping under the pressure.

Yun Lintian and Yue Yun found themselves trapped within a cage of crimson flames, their path to escape blocked by the overwhelming power of the War God. The moonlit barrier that Yue Yun had raised flickered and wavered, struggling to withstand the onslaught of the inferno.

"You think you can escape from me?" Zhan You sneered, his eyes blazing with fury. "You dare challenge a War God and think you can simply walk away?"

He raised his hand, and the flames surged forward, licking at the edges of the barrier like hungry tongues.

Yun Lintian gritted his teeth, channeling his Law of Lightning energy into the Heaven Piercing Sword. He swung the sword in a wide arc, a blinding crescent of golden lightning slicing through the flames, momentarily pushing them back.

Yue Yun, seeing the opportunity, unleashed a flurry of moon blades, each one a shimmering arc of lunar energy aimed at breaching the fiery cage. The moon blades sliced through the flames, creating fleeting gaps in the inferno.

"Now!" Yun Lintian shouted, his voice barely audible above the roar of the flames.

He and Yue Yun made a desperate dash for freedom, their bodies blurring as they moved with incredible speed. But Zhan You was faster.

With a flick of his wrist, a wall of fire materialized in front of them, blocking their path. Yun Lintian slammed into the wall, the impact sending shockwaves rippling through the air.

Even with superb resistance against fire, Yun Lintian found himself unable to withstand Zhan You's might. He cried out in pain as the flames seared his skin, leaving behind painful burns.

Yue Yun, agile and nimble, leaped over the wall, her moonlit form soaring through the air. But Zhan You anticipated her move. He reached out, his hand crackling with fiery energy, and grasped her ankle mid-air.

"Ah!" Yue Yun gasped as the heat scorched her skin, her body momentarily paralyzed by the sheer intensity of the flames.

Zhan You yanked her back, her lithe form tumbling through the air before landing with a thud on the stone floor.

Bang!

"You're not going anywhere," Zhan You growled, his voice like the rumble of a volcano about to erupt.

He turned his attention to Yun Lintian, who was struggling to rise to his feet, his body weakened by the burns.

"As for you," Zhan You sneered, "your fate will be far worse."

He raised his hand, the flames around him swirling into a vortex of destructive energy. A sense of dread washed over Yun Lintian, the realization dawning upon him that he was about to face the full wrath of a True God.

Dian Lei subconsciously glanced at the invisible ring on Yun Lintian's finger, hoping to see a reaction. As long as the woman in white appeared again, Zhan You would undoubtedly die here.

However, nothing happened except for a deafening explosion.

BOOOM!!

The fire engulfed Yun Lintian's entire body, followed by a powerful explosion.

"No!" Yue Yun cried out anxiously but she was too late to do anything…
