Chapter 2285: Lurking In The Shadow (1)



The pocket dimension trembled violently, its boundaries threatening to collapse under the strain of the opposing powers. The crowd outside, their faces etched with terror, watched as the shimmering barrier flickered and warped, its stability hanging by a thread.

Within the dimension, the clash reached its climax. The Flame of Annihilation, its energy depleted by the Great Law of Death, finally succumbed, its light extinguished in a final, desperate burst.

BOOOM!!

The shockwave from the collision rippled through the pocket dimension, shattering its boundaries and releasing the two combatants back into the ravaged avenue.

The crowd gasped, their eyes wide with disbelief as they beheld the scene before them.

Huo Yanzeng, his body broken and his spirit shattered, lay sprawled on the scorched earth, his flames extinguished, his God Mark dimmed. He was a shadow of his former self, his once- mighty power reduced to a mere ember.

Yun Lintian stood over him, his figure radiating an aura of absolute dominance. His eyes, now returned to their normal golden hue, were filled with a cold, unwavering resolve.

It was his first time defeating a True God head-on. However, there was no joy in Yun Lintian's heart.

The Sacred Flame God was strong, but he wasn't as meticulous as other True Gods. If Yun Lintian hadn't confined him inside his own pocket dimension, it's hard to say whether he could have defeated him.

Moreover, Yun Lintian had to resort to the Great Law of Death in the end. Without it, he definitely couldn't have defended against Huo Yanzeng's final attack.

This battle gave him precious experience.

Yun Lintian let out a long breath, but his vigilance didn't decrease in the slightest. His intuition told him this wasn't the end.

He looked at Huo Yanzeng and raised his hand, his aura surged.

However, just as Yun Lintian was about to finish Huo Yanzeng, the shadow beneath him suddenly distorted, and a sharp black claw shot out, heading straight for his heart.

Yun Lintian took a deep breath, gathering his strength and focusing his will. The three divine beast bloodlines within him roared to life, their energies surging through his veins, their flames blazing with a newfound intensity.

"As you wish," Yun Lintian declared, his voice echoing with an unwavering resolve.

He lunged forward, his movements a blur of motion as he closed the distance between them. He unleashed a torrent of attacks, each infused with the combined power of the Golden Crow, the Divine Phoenix, and the Vermilion Bird.

Yin Ye met his assault with a graceful fluidity, his body swaying and twisting, his movements as elusive as the shadows themselves. He deflected Yun Lintian's attacks with ease, his fingers dancing with an otherworldly precision.

The two combatants exchanged blows, their powers clashing in a mesmerizing display of light and darkness.

The Golden Crow flame, ablaze with a blinding radiance, battled against the encroaching shadows, their energies intertwining and repelling in a constant struggle for dominance.

Yun Lintian, his movements a blur of motion, pressed his attack, his flames surging and his spatial manipulations warping the very fabric of reality. He created spatial rifts that threatened to swallow Yin Ye whole, his Golden Crow flame seeking any vulnerability in his opponent's defenses.

But Yin Ye was unfazed. He moved through the shadows, his body flickering and disappearing, his attacks appearing from unexpected angles. He countered Yun Lintian's spatial manipulations with his own mastery of the Law of Shadow, bending and twisting the darkness to his will.

The battle raged on, the two combatants locked in a deadly dance of fire and shadow. The crowd watched in breathless anticipation, their hearts pounding in their chests as they witnessed the clash of titans.

"Come on," Yin Ye said with dissatisfaction. "Why are you still holding back?"

Yun Lintian didn't respond and continued to attack Yin Ye. He was looking for a chance to trap Yin Ye in a pocket dimension.

The battle raged on, the two combatants locked in a deadly dance of fire and shadow.

Yun Xue, narrowing her eyes in concentration, observed the battle with a keen eye. She discovered that Yin Ye was even stronger than the last time she saw him. Clearly, something wasn't right here.

Yin Ye effortlessly avoided Yun Lintian's attack and said, "Since you're not willing to use your true strength, let me force it out."

As his voice fell, he vanished into thin air, his form dissolving into the surrounding darkness...
