Myth Beyond Heaven-Chapter 2669: Trap (3)

"Of course, I surely need something more than that," Yun Lintian said with a faint smile. "But I am confident in defeating him."

Yun Lintian tried to distract Yu Cai as much as he could and continued to talk with her.

Yu Cai’s smile faded slightly, her expression turning serious. "You’re confident, I’ll give you that. But confidence can be dangerous. You will definitely suffer a huge loss underestimating my lord."

Yun Lintian said calmly. "I don’t underestimate him. But I also don’t fear him. I’ll face him when the time comes, and I’ll do whatever it takes to win."

Yu Cai studied him for a moment, her dark eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and something else—something Yun Lintian couldn’t quite place. Finally, she sighed softly, her expression softening slightly.

"You’re an interesting man, Yun Lintian," she said, her voice calm but laced with a hint of something deeper. "I almost wish we could have met under different circumstances. Perhaps we could have been allies."

Yun Lintian’s smile widened slightly. "Perhaps. But fate has a way of bringing people together in unexpected ways. Who knows what the future holds?"

Yu Cai’s eyes narrowed slightly, her sharp instincts picking up on something strange. She glanced around, her expression turning cautious. "What are you planning, Yun Lintian?"

Yun Lintian’s smile didn’t falter. "Oh, nothing much. Just a little surprise."

Before Yu Cai could respond, the space around her began to shift. The chaotic energy of the Abyssal Rift twisted and folded, forming intricate patterns that Yu Cai recognized all too well.

"A formation?" she muttered, her eyes widening in realization. "When did you—?"

Yun Lintian’s smile widened. "While you were busy testing me, I was busy setting up my own formation. You’re not the only one who can play games, Yu Cai."

Yu Cai’s heart sank as she felt the formation tighten around her. The intricate patterns of energy woven by Yun Lintian were flawless, their complexity far beyond anything she had ever seen.

She could feel the formation pressing down on her, its energy suppressing her chaotic energy and sealing her movements.

"How could you do this?" Yu Cai couldn’t believe it. Yun Lintian could actually do so much work under her nose without her noticing.

"Nothing is impossible," Yun Lintian said indifferently. "As I said, you are not the only one who is proficient in the formation art."

Yu Cai’s expression turned solemn. With a sudden burst of energy, she channeled her chaotic power, her aura flaring as she tried to break free from the formation. However, the formation stood firm under her attack. It was as if her attack went through an empty space.

"It’s over," Yun Lintian smiled faintly. "Please enjoy."

With that, Yun Lintian’s figure slowly faded away from Yu Cai’s sight.

"Wait!" Yu Cai wanted to stop Yun Lintian, but it was too late. Yun Lintian had completely vanished from her perception, and now she was stuck inside the formation that she couldn’t understand.

Meanwhile, Yun Lintian moved swiftly through the Abyssal Rift, his golden eyes scanning the chaotic landscape. He knew time was running out. The Chasm of Uncreation was on the verge of being unleashed, and he had to reach Ren Yuan before it was too late.

As he sped through the void, a massive presence suddenly loomed ahead. The World Eater’s colossal form emerged from the chaotic energy, its humongous body cutting through the Abyssal Rift like a ship through water. Its single eye glowed with an eerie light as it approached Yun Lintian.

"Yun Lintian," the World Eater’s deep, resonant voice echoed through the void, "you are slow."

Yun Lintian slowed his pace, his expression calm as he greeted the ancient creature. "I’m sorry, Senior. I was hindered by another Chaos Knight."

The World Eater’s gaze shifted to the distance, where Yu Cai’s trapped form was faintly visible within Yun Lintian’s formation. The Second Chaos Knight struggled against the energy threads, her movements sluggish as the formation suppressed her chaotic power.

"The Chasm of Uncreation’s breath grows stronger," the World Eater’s voice rumbled. "Ren Yuan is nearing the final seal."

"Let’s go, Senior," Yun Lintian said, nodding and speeding up, with the World Eater in the lead.

While Yun Lintian and the World Eater were on their way toward the Gate of the Abyss, Ren Yuan had just finished absorbing a portion of the Chasm of Uncreation’s power. He could feel his strength becoming more solid.

"Continue, Ren Yuan," the Chasm of Uncreation’s voice boomed, its tone laced with a hint of impatience. "I have fulfilled my part of the agreement. Now, it is your turn to fulfill yours."

Ren Yuan, however, didn’t immediately respond. He turned to Chun Yue, who had been silently observing the process, her eyes wide with a mixture of awe and apprehension.

"Chun Yue," Ren Yuan said, his voice calm and steady, "come forward."

Chun Yue was startled. She looked at Ren Yuan, her eyes filled with surprise. "Master?" she asked, her voice barely a whisper.

"Come closer," Ren Yuan repeated, his gaze fixed on her.

Chun Yue hesitated for a moment, but she obeyed, stepping forward cautiously.

Ren Yuan raised his hand, and a stream of chaotic energy flowed from his fingertips, swirling around Chun Yue’s body.

"Absorb this," he commanded, his voice firm. "It is a portion of the Chasm of Uncreation’s power. It will enhance your strength, protect you from the chaos that is to come."

Chun Yue’s eyes widened in disbelief. She had never expected her master to share such a precious power with her, a power that could potentially elevate her cultivation to unimaginable heights.

"Master..." she began, her voice trembling with emotion. "I... I don’t know what to say."

Ren Yuan’s expression softened slightly. "There is no need for words," he said, his voice gentle. "You have served me faithfully, Chun Yue. This is a reward for your loyalty."

Chun Yue’s eyes glistened with tears of gratitude. "Thank you, Master," she said, her voice filled with sincerity.

With that, she closed her eyes and began to absorb the chaotic energy, her aura flaring as the power of the Chasm of Uncreation flowed through her.

The Chasm of Uncreation’s voice boomed through the Abyssal Rift, its tone filled with rage.

"Ren Yuan!" it roared. "What is the meaning of this? You dare to share my power with a mere mortal?"

Ren Yuan’s expression hardened. "She is my disciple," he replied, his voice cold and resolute. "She has earned this power."

"Besides," He paused for a moment and continued. "This is originally a deal between us."
