Myth Beyond Heaven-Chapter 2843: Enraged (1)
The energy pierced through Long Si's chest first, then twisted mid-air and impaled Long Wu through the heart.
The two Dragon God Ancestors stiffened. Their bodies trembled for a brief moment before golden cracks spread across their skin.
Then—
BOOM!
They shattered, their forms dissolving into motes of golden light.
Silence.
Nantian Fengyu's breath caught in her throat. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Yun Qianxue's fingers twitched, her frost-blue eyes widening in horror.
Yao Xi's lips parted slightly, her hatred momentarily eclipsed by shock.
Yue Yun's grip on her Moon Staff tightened until her knuckles turned white.
Ren Yuan, however, merely waved his hand again, collecting the lingering essence of the two Dragon Gods—their blood, their bones, the remnants of their divine power—into a swirling orb of golden energy.
"Dragon God blood and bones... truly priceless treasures," he mused, examining the orb with satisfaction.
"REN YUAN!"
Nantian Fengyu's roar tore through the abyss. Her crimson eyes burned with unbridled fury, her Phoenix flames flickering wildly despite the suppression. "I'LL KILL YOU!"
Ren Yuan glanced at her, unfazed. "How touching. But save your strength—you'll need it for what comes next."
He turned away, as if the deaths of two ancient Dragon Gods meant nothing to him.
Yue Yun's mind raced. The World Tree resisted his power briefly... but it's not enough. She gritted her teeth. If only it were at full strength...
That's right… Where is Yun Ling?
Yue Yun's heart clenched as realization struck her like a thunderbolt.
I was in such a hurry... I forgot to inform Yun Ling!
Among them, Yun Ling was the only one who could truly stand against a Primordial God like Ren Yuan head-on. But now, trapped under Ren Yuan's suppression, she couldn't even send a message.
Her fingers twitched uselessly as she watched Ren Yuan stride toward the World Tree, his black-and-gold aura forcing the ancient tree's emerald light to retreat with every step. The roots that had once pulsed with boundless vitality now withered slightly under his approach.
Ren Yuan stopped before Ning Yue, who remained seated beneath the tree, her eyes still closed in deep meditation. He studied her for a long moment before letting out a low chuckle.
"So this is why the World Tree chose you," he mused. "You have one of its roots inside your body."
His hand shot out, aiming for Ning Yue's throat—
CRASH!
The World Tree's massive branches slammed down like divine spears, blocking Ren Yuan's path.
But Ren Yuan merely tilted his head, unfazed. A black-gold barrier shimmered into existence, effortlessly stopping the branches mid-air.
"Persistent," he muttered, amused.
Then—he stomped down.
BOOM!
His foot crushed one of the World Tree's exposed roots. The entire tree shuddered violently, its leaves trembling as if in pain.
"Stop resisting," Ren Yuan said coldly. "Submit to me, and I might spare you."
Nantian Fengyu's crimson eyes burned with helpless fury. She strained against the invisible chains binding her, but even her Divine Phoenix flames couldn't break free.
"Bastard...!" she snarled.
Yun Qianxue's frost energy flickered weakly, her usual calm shattered by desperation. "We can't just... watch..."
Yao Xi's fingers dug into the ground, her hatred for Ren Yuan boiling over, yet her body refused to obey.
Yue Yun's mind raced. The World Tree... Ning Yue... If Ren Yuan takes control of them, everything is lost.
Ren Yuan looked at the World Tree that was weakened with a satisfied smile. "That's more like it… Now."
He turned his gaze towards Ning Yue and reached out.
Ren Yuan's fingers were mere inches from Ning Yue's throat when—
BOOM!
A blinding emerald light erupted from Ning Yue's body, striking Ren Yuan's hand with the force of a celestial hammer.
"Ah—!"
Ren Yuan recoiled, golden blood dripping from his scorched fingers. His eyes narrowed in shock as he stared at the burns. "This... is the power of Creation?"
His frown deepened. Even with the God of Heaven's memories, he couldn't comprehend how Ning Yue could wield such energy. The World Tree's root within her shouldn't grant this level of authority.
"No matter." Ren Yuan's golden eyes hardened. "Let's see how long you can last."
He raised his hand, summoning a swirling orb of black-and-gold energy—a condensed form of the Uncreation's power. With a flick of his wrist, he hurled it at Ning Yue.
The orb shot forward like a falling star—
BOOM!!
Ning Yue's aura flared again, forming an emerald barrier that dissolved the attack effortlessly.
Ren Yuan's lips curled. "Interesting."
He didn't stop.
One after another, bolts of destructive energy rained down upon Ning Yue. Each strike carried enough force to obliterate a realm, yet her aura repelled them all—though the light around her dimmed slightly with each impact.
Nantian Fengyu watched, her crimson eyes burning with frustration. "Damn it... If only I could move!"
Yue Yun's fingers twitched. She tried to muster her power but it was futile.
Ren Yuan intensified his assault. The endless abyss trembled as space itself fractured under the barrage.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ning Yue's barrier flickered, her aura visibly weakening.
Ren Yuan smirked. "Is that all?"
He took a step forward. Then another.
Ning Yue's light was nearly gone now, her defenses on the verge of collapse.
"Heh. Finally can't hold it anymore?" Ren Yuan chuckled and stepped forward.
Just as Ren Yuan's fingers were about to close around Ning Yue's throat—
BOOOOM!
The space between them shattered like glass as the Gate of Beyond Heaven erupted into existence. Before Ren Yuan could react, the God-Slaying Sword shot out from the gate like a bolt of divine lightning, aimed straight for his heart.
Ren Yuan's golden eyes contracted. His body moved on instinct—
CLANG!
A black-gold barrier materialized just in time, but the sheer force of the impact still sent him flying backward through the air, his feet carving deep grooves into the voidstone ground as he struggled to stabilize himself.
Nantian Fengyu's lips curled into a savage grin. "He's here!"
Even Yao Xi's cold expression flickered with something akin to relief.
"You are finally here," Yue Yun muttered in relief. This meant he was safe and sound after facing Nian Shi.
The gate pulsed with ancient power as a figure stepped through—his black and white hair flowing freely, his mismatched eyes burning with cold fury.
Yun Lintian.
His presence alone made the endless abyss tremble. The oppressive black-and-gold aura that had suppressed everyone moments ago recoiled instinctively, as if afraid.
Yun Lintian didn't spare a glance for the others. His gaze was locked onto Ren Yuan, his voice colder than the deepest void.
"Let's see how you can run this time."
