Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2148 Undefeated (3)

The two figures stood poised, a colossal crimson sword held by one balanced against the swirling mass of death energy emanating from the other.

The tomb, once a monument to forgotten power, began to crumble at an accelerated pace, unable to withstand the sheer force radiating from the clash.

"Let's try it." Si Junyi said calmly.

The Guardian of the Netherworld raised a massive, clawed hand, and with a deafening screech, tore an enormous chunk of the collapsing ceiling, hurling it like a projectile at the Heaven Severing God.

Reacting with lightning speed, Zhan You swung his crimson sword in a casual arc. A wave of pure energy erupted from the blade, shattering everything before him into nothingness. The impact sent shockwaves through the tomb, further accelerating its descent into ruin.

The Guardian, undeterred, lunged forward, its four eyes burning with a malevolent intelligence. It slammed its enormous fists into the ground, sending shockwaves that ripped through Zhan You's defenses, momentarily causing him to lose his footing.

The clash between the Heaven Severing God and the Guardian of the Netherworld transcended the boundaries of the collapsing tomb. The very fabric of space itself groaned under the strain of their battle, threatening to tear open rifts that would spew forth the raw chaos of the void.

Zhan You, despite momentarily being thrown off guard by the Guardian's earth-shattering blow, recovered with inhuman speed.

He raised his crimson sword, the galaxies swirling around him intensifying their glow in response to the rising challenge. With a roar that echoed through the crumbling caverns, he met the Guardian's charge head-on.

BOOOOM—

Their collision was a symphony of destruction. The Heaven Severing God's sword sang a celestial tune as it met the obsidian claws of the Guardian, sparks erupting like miniature suns.

The resulting shockwave rippled outwards, pulverizing entire sections of the tomb walls and sending debris hurtling through the air like deadly shrapnel.

Si Junyi, a solitary figure amidst the chaos, watched with a detached intensity. He channeled his remaining divine power into the Guardian, fueling its monstrous strength and bolstering its defenses against the relentless onslaught of the War God.

The battle became a whirlwind of clashing titans. The crimson sword, a beacon of celestial fire, carved through the darkness that clung to the Guardian. Each blow sent tremors through the very foundation of the world, threatening to rip continents from their moorings.

The Guardian, fueled by the corrupting power of death, fought back with relentless savagery. Its obsidian claws tore through the celestial flames, leaving behind trails of inky smoke that writhed with an unholy life of their own.

Zhan You, despite his immense power, started to show signs of strain. The sheer number of attacks, fueled by the limitless reserves of the death energy vortex, began to wear him down. His movements, though still impossibly fast, lost a hint of their initial grace.

Si Junyi sensed this shift. He poured even more power into the Guardian, urging it to press the attack. The monstrous entity responded with a feral roar, its four eyes blazing with a malevolent hunger.

With a surge of strength, the Guardian unleashed a barrage of blows, each one capable of shattering a lesser god into oblivion.

Zhan You, forced on the defensive, parried and weaved, his crimson sword leaving trails of fire in its wake.

Suddenly, the Guardian feinted with its right claw, drawing Zhan You's block. In a flash of unholy speed, its left claw slammed into the War God's chest, shattering his celestial armor and sending him flying across the collapsing chamber.

BANG!

Zhan You crashed through a weakened portion of the tomb wall, disappearing into the swirling chaos of dust and debris that swirled above the collapsing space.

"Go on." Si Junyi said calmly.

The Guardian tore through space, its monstrous form disappearing into the churning dust cloud above.

But Zhan You wasn't finished yet.

From within the swirling dust, a blinding celestial light erupted, pushing back the darkness like a tide. The dust particles ignited, transforming the chaotic scene into a swirling nebula of crimson fire and celestial energy.

A voice, booming with the power of a thousand thunderstorms, echoed through the collapsing space. "As expected from a loyal servant of the God of Death. It is indeed strong… But it's still not enough."

The voice was followed by a colossal figure emerging from the dust cloud. The Heaven Severing God stood tall, his form radiating an aura of power that seemed to mend the fractured space around him. However, a deep gash marred his previously pristine celestial armor, a testament to the Guardian's raw strength.

The Guardian, momentarily faltered by the War God's sudden resurgence, screeched in defiance and charged once more.

The two figures clashed again, their battle now spilling out into the open sky above the tomb.

The clash tore through the heavens. Galaxies spiraled around Zhan You's sword as it met the Guardian's obsidian claws, their impacts sending shockwaves that rattled distant stars.

The very air crackled with an oppressive energy, threatening to extinguish any life form caught in its path.

Si Junyi's brow furrowed. The undefeated War God truly lived up to his title. The Hell Asura, the last guardian the God of Death had bestowed upon him, possessed undeniable strength. However, it remarkably failed to completely suppress Zhan You.

However, Si Junyi had no intention of coming forward by himself. He continued to command the Hell Asura to attack Zhan You.

Zhan You, however, seemed to be drawing strength from the very destruction they caused. With each clash, the galaxies swirling around him pulsed with a renewed brilliance.

As the Guardian, fueled by Si Junyi's dwindling power, swung its obsidian claws with ferocious abandon, Zhan You began to fight back.

His movements, initially defensive, turned calculated and precise. His crimson sword, a burning meteor against the backdrop of inky darkness, danced around the Guardian's attacks, carving incandescent lines across its monstrous form.

Tendrils of inky smoke, remnants of the death energy vortex, writhed around the wounds, attempting to fester and corrupt.

But Zhan You fought back with a celestial fire purer than anything Si Junyi had ever witnessed. The flames, emanating from his sword and his very being, burned away the tendrils, leaving behind smoldering gashes on the Guardian's obsidian hide.

"Roar!" A frustrated roar tore from the Guardian's maw, the sound echoing through the collapsing tomb and beyond, shaking the very foundations of the God Tomb.

The monstrous entity, fueled by Si Junyi's desperate pleas for dominance, slammed its gigantic fists together, creating a shockwave that ripped through the celestial battlefield.

BOOOOM—
