Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2555:  Golden Brilliance (2)

Tantai Xue raised her hand, and the Law of Order shimmered around her once more. With a subtle gesture, she disrupted the flow of Qi Zongwen's divine energy, causing the golden aura around him to waver. The Shadow Demons, sensing their opportunity, lunged forward with renewed ferocity.

Qi Zongwen's expression hardened. He knew Tantai Xue was the real threat. Her ability to manipulate the Law of Order made her a formidable opponent, one who could disrupt his powers at critical moments. But he wasn't about to back down.

"If you think you can suppress me so easily," Qi Zongwen said, his voice low and resolute, "you're sorely mistaken."

With a roar, he activated the God Mark of Golden Qilin. The mark on his forehead glowed with an intense golden light, and the image of the qilin behind him solidified, its eyes blazing with divine fury. At the same time, the God Marks of Metal, Thunder, and Fire on his body lit up, each one amplifying his power to unprecedented levels.

The air around Qi Zongwen crackled with energy as the laws of metal, thunder, and fire intertwined with the divine power of the Golden Qilin. The ground beneath him began to melt, and the sky above darkened as thunderclouds gathered.

Qi Zongwen stood tall, his golden aura blazing like a sun. The image of the Golden Qilin God loomed behind him, its divine presence suppressing the chaotic energy of the Shadow Demons. The two remaining demons staggered back, their forms flickering as if struggling to maintain their cohesion.

Tantai Xue's eyes narrowed. She could feel the immense power radiating from Qi Zongwen, and for the first time, a hint of caution flickered in her gaze. But she remained composed, her expression calm and unreadable.

Swoosh!

The two Shadow Demons charged at Qi Zongwen, their forms shifting and twisting as they unleashed waves of chaotic energy. Qi Zongwen didn't flinch. With a swift motion, he raised his hand, and a massive golden sword materialized in his grasp. The sword was infused with the power of metal, thunder, and fire, its blade crackling with energy.

"Die!" Qi Zongwen roared, swinging the sword in a wide arc.

BOOM!

The blade struck the first Shadow Demon, its divine energy tearing through the chaotic form like a hot knife through butter. The demon let out a guttural scream as its body disintegrated, its essence consumed by the divine flames.

The second demon lunged at Qi Zongwen from behind, its claws extended and dripping with dark energy. But Qi Zongwen was ready. He spun around, his golden aura flaring as he deflected the attack with his forearm. At the same time, he summoned a bolt of lightning, which struck the demon with unerring accuracy.

BANG!

The lightning tore through the demon's body, reducing it to ash in an instant.

Tantai Xue watched silently, her expression unreadable. She didn't seem fazed by the loss of the Shadow Demons. Instead, she seemed more interested in Qi Zongwen's display of power.

"Impressive," she said, her voice calm and measured. "You've managed to eliminate all the General Class Shadow Demons. I must say you are tougher than I thought… Come. Let's play for a while."

Qi Zongwen didn't respond. He knew Tantai Xue was far more dangerous than the Shadow Demons. Her ability to manipulate the Law of Order made her a formidable opponent, one who could disrupt his powers at critical moments. With a deep breath, Qi Zongwen focused his energy, channeling the full power of the Golden Qilin God. The image of the qilin behind him grew larger, its golden light pushing back the darkness.

At the same time, the God Marks of Metal, Thunder, and Fire on his body glowed with an intense light, amplifying his power to unprecedented levels.

Tantai Xue raised her hand, and the Law of Order shimmered around her once more. With a casual gesture, she disrupted the flow of Qi Zongwen's divine energy, causing the golden aura around him to waver. But this time, Qi Zongwen was prepared.

"I don't care who you are," Qi Zongwen said, his voice low and resolute. "You must die today."

BOOM!

With a roar, he unleashed the full power of the Golden Qilin God. The qilin's image around him solidified, its golden light pushing back the darkness. The God Marks of Metal, Thunder, and Fire on his body intensified further, each one amplifying his power to unprecedented levels.

The air around Qi Zongwen crackled with energy as the laws of metal, thunder, and fire intertwined with the divine power of the Golden Qilin. The ground beneath him turned into lava, and the sky above darkened even more.

Swoosh!

Qi Zongwen, now a living embodiment of divine power, charged towards Tantai Xue. His movements were swift, precise, each step imbued with the power of the Golden Qilin God.

The golden sword in his hand, now a conduit for the four God Marks, pulsed with an energy that could rend the heavens and sunder the earth.

Tantai Xue, her composure finally giving way to a hint of surprise, met his charge. She raised her hands, and the Law of Order swirled around her, forming a barrier of pure, concentrated power. It was a power that could control reality itself, a power that could dictate the very laws of existence.

BOOOOM— n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Qi Zongwen's golden sword clashed against Tantai Xue's barrier of Order, the impact sending shockwaves that rippled through the air, tearing apart the landscape around them.

The ground cracked and split, and the sky above seemed to tremble under the force of their collision. Yet, despite the overwhelming power of Qi Zongwen's attack, Tantai Xue's barrier held firm, her expression calm and composed.

"Better give up. You are not my opponent." Tantai Xue said, her voice smooth and unhurried. Qi Zongwen's eyes narrowed. He could feel the immense power radiating from Tantai Xue, a power that seemed to transcend the ordinary limits of divine energy. It was as if she was not bound by the same laws that governed the world. Her control over the Law of Order was absolute, and it allowed her to disrupt his attacks with ease.

"Who are you?" Qi Zongwen demanded, his voice low and resolute. "Your power… it's not something an ordinary god could possess."

Tantai Xue smiled, a cold, almost predatory smile. "I told you before," she replied. "I am Tantai Xue, servant of the Lord of Chaos. But if you're asking about the source of my power… well, let's just say I'm not bound by the same limitations as you."
