Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2156 Moon Graveyard (1)

Yun Lintian, his movements graceful and fluid like a dancing willow branch, easily slipped away from the pulverizing blow. He reappeared behind the golem, a cold glint in his eyes.

“Is that all you’ve got, big fella?” he taunted, his voice echoing in the cavern.

The golem, enraged by Yun Lintian’s mockery, turned with a ponderous slowness. This gave Yun Lintian the perfect opportunity.

He weaved through the cavern, leaving a trail of shimmering blue afterimages as he unleashed a continuous barrage of water blades.

They rained down on the golem, chipping away at its rocky hide. Though each individual blade caused minor damage, the relentless assault began to wear down the guardian.

Woosh! Woosh! Woosh!

Frustration etched itself onto the golem’s glowing eyes as its attacks repeatedly missed the nimble figure dancing around it.

Yun Lintian observed the golem’s movements carefully. He noticed a pattern in its attacks, a predictable sequence that telegraphed its every move. With each passing moment, the rhythm of the battle became clearer, like a melody he could anticipate and exploit.

A sly grin spread across Yun Lintian’s face. He ceased the barrage of water blades and instead focused his energy. The water sword in his hand dissolved, transforming into a swirling vortex of liquid fury.

With a flick of his wrist, he sent the vortex hurtling towards the golem’s exposed leg.

Bang!

The vortex struck true, wrapping itself around the golem’s leg like a watery serpent. The Law of Water, a force of erosion and control, began to seep into the golem’s rocky body, weakening its very foundation.

“Owhhhh!” The golem screeched in a sound that resembled nails scraping against stone. Its movements became sluggish, its once powerful blows losing their force.

The golem soon stumbled, its massive form teetering precariously on the uneven ground.

Yun Lintian seized the opportunity. With a burst of speed, he arrived before the golem’s chest, the water sword once again forming in his hand.

Time seemed to slow as he raised his sword, the blue light reflecting in his resolute eyes.

“This ends now,” he declared, his voice cutting through the cavern’s silence.

Riiipppp—

With a swift, precise motion, Yun Lintian plunged the water sword into a weak point he had identified during his relentless assault.

The Law of Water coursed through the blade, amplifying its cutting edge. It pierced through the golem’s rocky exterior with an almost effortless ease.

Crack! Crack! Crackkkk!

A chain reaction erupted within the golem’s body. Cracks spread like spiderwebs across its rocky hide, and then, with a thunderous roar, the colossal creature crumbled to dust.

The air settled, thick with the scent of crushed stone, and a heavy silence descended upon the cavern.

Yun Lintian stood amidst the dust cloud, his clothes unruffled, the water sword dissipating into a faint blue mist. He took a deep breath, the exhilaration of battle coursing through him.

This wasn’t just a victory; it was a demonstration of his mastery over the Law of Water, a testament to his ever-growing power.

Through Shi Xuan and Tian He’s guidance, Yun Lintian’s grasp of the laws had solidified dramatically. He now wielded the same level of power without relying on the relics’ amplification.

He brimmed with confidence, certain he could vanquish Feng Jian in a mere handful of moves in the next encounter.

As the dust settled, Yun Lintian turned his attention back to the colossal stone door, its intricate symbol glowing faintly.

The path forward was clear. With a confident stride, he approached the door, his hand reaching out to touch the symbol.

Buzz—

The moment his finger made contact, the symbol flared to life, bathing the cavern in an ethereal blue light.

The colossal stone door groaned as it slowly creaked open, revealing a passage bathed in an otherworldly glow.

Through the Eyes of Heaven, Yun Lintian spotted a flow of moon energy ahead. Undeterred, he plunged into the unknown.

The passage led him through a labyrinth of floating islands, each holding fragments of ancient structures bathed in an ethereal moonlight. The air crackled with a mystical energy, unlike anything he had encountered before.

In the distance, a colossal statue of a woman dominated the landscape, her hand outstretched towards the heavens. Her features, bathed in the soft moonlight, bore an uncanny resemblance to the woman in the coffin.

A wave of unease washed over Yun Lintian. This place felt eerily familiar, yet utterly foreign at the same time. The lingering energy of the woman in the coffin resonated within him, urging him forward.

He gripped the fragment on his chest, its faint light offering a sense of guidance.

As he navigated the treacherous path between the floating islands, a sense of foreboding grew within him. The silence was heavy, broken only by the occasional crackle of energy and the distant hum of the unknown. The air shimmered with an unseen force, testing his defenses.

“ROAR!”

Suddenly, a guttural roar ripped through the silence, echoing from somewhere above. Yun Lintian looked up to see a monstrous creature emerge from the shadows.

It resembled a grotesque chimera, a twisted amalgamation of a lion, a serpent, and a giant bat. Its obsidian fur bristled with malice, and its eyes glowed with malevolent red light. Its aura reeked of the God Ascension Realm.

A fire sword appeared in Yun Lintian’s hand. The fire sword blazed with an inferno of golden light, a stark contrast to the chimera’s chilling aura.

Yun Lintian, channeling the Law of Fire within him, felt a surge of potent heat emanating from the blade.

The chimera swooped down with unimaginable speed, its razor-sharp claws aimed at Yun Lintian’s chest.

“Let’s dance.” Yun Lintian remained unfazed. With a whisper, he activated the Law of Lightning. A surge of electric energy crackled around him, enhancing his speed to a level beyond the chimera’s comprehension.

He vanished from his spot, leaving behind a faint afterimage, and reappeared behind the beast in a blink.

“Rawr!” The chimera roared in frustration, its razor-sharp claws snapping at the empty air where Yun Lintian had just been.

Before it could adjust, Yun Lintian unleashed a fiery torrent from his sword.

Bang!

The flames, imbued with the Law of Fire’s destructive power, engulfed the chimera’s back, eliciting a deafening shriek of pain.

But the chimera was a tenacious creature. It whipped its serpentine tail at Yun Lintian, who narrowly dodged the attack with another burst of lightning-enhanced speed.

Focusing his mind, Yun Lintian visualized the Law of Wind. A gentle breeze swirled around him, building in intensity until it became a ferocious whirlwind…
