Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2483: Purification



A wave of pure, unadulterated death energy washed over Yun Lintian, so profound and absolute that it seemed to stop his heart for a fleeting moment. It was the purest form of death, devoid of malice or intent, simply the cessation of existence, the ultimate end.

The power of time, which had been wreaking havoc a moment before, abruptly froze, like a raging river suddenly turned to ice. The fast-forwarding world around them stuttered, then slowed, finally settling back into its normal rhythm.

Hei Shou, his form glowing with an eerie black light, poured his power into the Divine Core, countering the erupting temporal energy. The clash between the two opposing forces created a vortex of energy that threatened to tear the very fabric of reality apart.

Yun Lintian, his mind reeling from the sudden shift in power, watched in awe as Hei Shou effortlessly neutralized the trap. He had never witnessed such a profound display of death energy before. It was then that he remembered Hei Shou's true origins.

Hei Shou was a part of the God of Death, the hand of the God of Death himself. It was no wonder he possessed such mastery over death energy.

With the trap neutralized, Yun Lintian seized the opportunity. He channeled his divine energy, the power of the Primordial Sun God surging through his veins, his God Marks of Life and Death pulsating with a vibrant light.

He delved into the Abyssal God Beast's Divine Core, his divine sense navigating the chaotic energy like a beacon of light piercing through darkness. He reached for the remnants of Qi Gang's soul, his divine energy gently coaxing it out from the clutches of corruption.

The process was delicate, like separating a single thread from a tangled web. Yun Lintian worked tirelessly, his focus unwavering.

Slowly but surely, he peeled away the layers of chaotic energy, revealing the pure essence of Qi Gang's soul. It was weak, flickering like a dying flame, but it was still there, clinging to life.

Yun Lintian continued his work, his divine energy gently nurturing the fragile soul, mending its wounds, restoring its strength.

As he purified the last vestiges of chaotic energy, a warm golden light enveloped Qi Gang's soul. It pulsed with renewed life, its strength growing with each passing moment.

Finally, the purification was complete. Qi Gang's soul, now free from corruption, shone with a brilliant golden light.

With a gentle push, Yun Lintian guided Qi Gang's soul back into his body. The Abyssal God Beast's form shuddered, then stilled. Its corrupted golden fur gradually faded, replaced by a pure, pristine golden. Its eyes, once burning with malevolence, now shone with a gentle light. The transformation was complete. The Abyssal God Beast was no more. In its place stood a magnificent Qilin, its white fur gleaming like blazing sun, its eyes radiating wisdom and benevolence.

Qi Gang's eyes fluttered open, his gaze filled with confusion. He looked around, his mind slowly piecing together the events that had transpired.

"Brother Qi!" Lan Hanyu flew over and landed beside him.

Qi Gang looked at her, confusion in his eyes. "Hanyu? So, it wasn't a dream. I'm glad you're still alive."

He turned to look at Yun Lintian, Gui Xiao, and Hei Shou. "Thank you for saving me. It felt like I had a long dream."

Yun Lintian smiled warmly. "Welcome back, Senior Qi. My name is Yun Lintian."

Qi Gang nodded slowly. With a flash of golden light, his massive body shrank and transformed into a handsome middle-aged man clad in a white robe.

"Can you tell me what happened since we parted, Brother Qi?" Lan Hanyu asked.

Qi Gang thought for a moment. "After leading those Shadow Demons and Void Creatures away, I encountered another group. In the last moment, I decided to perish together with them, but something happened."

"A spatial rift appeared out of nowhere, and I fell into it. When I regained consciousness, I had already arrived here in a barren land. However, my injury was too severe. I found a young man and took him as my successor, but as I transferred my power to him, someone appeared and attacked me. I had no choice but to forcefully send my successor away."

"Was it Nian Shi?" Lan Hanyu quickly asked.

Qi Gang shook his head. "I wasn't sure, but it was a man. His appearance couldn't be seen. He forced chaotic energy onto me and transformed me into an Abyssal Beast. In the end, I used my last bit of strength to seal myself here and transform the entire land into a suitable place for my successor."

He let out a sigh. "I didn't expect to be alive."

"Isn't it good to be alive?" Lan Hanyu said softly. "Otherwise, I wouldn't forgive myself for the rest of my life."

Qi Gang looked at her and said with a smile, "Of course, it's good to be alive."

Swoosh!

At this moment, Qi Zongwen rushed over and looked at Qi Gang with delight. "Ancestor!" he said loudly.

Qi Gang looked at Qi Zongwen in surprise. "You've grown so much. I almost couldn't remember you."

"Welcome back, Ancestor," Qi Zongwen said. "It was all because of your teachings."

He turned to Yun Lintian and bowed deeply. "Thank you, Young Master Yun."

Yun Lintian quickly responded, "No need to be polite, Senior. This is what I should do. And just call me Lintian."

Qi Zongwen let out a sigh of relief. "Honestly, I had lost all hope. From what I know, there isn't a single one who can come back from being fully corrupted by the chaotic energy... Your power is indeed unique."

"Well, let's not talk here," Qi Zongwen said and brought everyone back to the palace.

After returning to the palace, Qi Zongwen began to recount the situation since he received the inheritance from Qi Gang. Yun Lintian didn't join the conversation and returned to his room, falling asleep from exhaustion. Hei Shou and Gui Xiao were also with him.

Inside the hall, Qi Gang had a thoughtful expression on his face. He didn't expect so many things had happened during this period. It was as if he had entered a new world.

Moreover, the situation of the Primal Chaos was beyond his expectation. While it was safe for the time being, it would clearly face a calamity sooner or later. Everything would repeat

again.

After experiencing the Primordial War, Qi Gang was fully aware of the true problem. It was always about the internal strife between the Primordial Gods, and now it was theirn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
