Chapter 2356: A Worthy Opponent



Zhan You's domain, its purpose fulfilled, began to collapse. The blood-soaked earth and crimson sky faded away, replaced by the familiar emptiness of the void.

Yun Lintian stood amidst the wreckage, his chest heaving with exertion. The Heaven Piercing Sword and the elemental swords floated beside him, their blades now dimmed, their energy spent.

He looked at the spot where Zhan You had fallen, a flicker of pity crossing his eyes. Despite being enemies, he couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for the War God, a warrior who had fought with unwavering determination until the very end.

What he couldn't understand was Zhan You's purpose in serving the Primordial God Tribe. There must be a reason for this.

He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath as he allowed the exhaustion to wash over him. The battle had been long and arduous, pushing him to the very limits of his strength and endurance.

Yun Lintian slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze immediately landed on Dao Ling, who stood there in shock, having forgotten to run. Perhaps he knew that running was futile and had already resigned himself to his fate.

With a wave of his hand, Dao Ling was mercilessly pulled towards Yun Lintian. The Netherworld Compass in his hand immediately slipped out and rushed into Yun Lintian's hand, rubbing against it intimately.

Yun Lintian looked at the compass in surprise. He could feel a strange connection between him and the compass. It was as if they had known each other for a long time.

Dao Ling woke up from his stupor but did not attempt to escape. He looked at Yun Lintian with fear and pleaded, "Spare me! I can be your loyal dog! I know a lot of things about the Primordial God Tribe."

Yun Lintian frowned slightly and turned to look at the hole in the barrier. "Can you fix this?" he asked.

Dao Ling quickly shook his head. "I can't. This barrier was created by the God of Fate himself. No one can fix it," he answered.

Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. This would be dangerous for the Divine Realm's citizens if it was left open.

At this moment, Yue Yun appeared by his side and snatched the Netherworld Compass away from his hand. Surprisingly, the compass had no reaction and obediently laid in her palm.

Yue Yun fiddled with it a few times as she said, "So, this is one of the three pillars of the Netherworld. Although its power has declined significantly, it's not too bad."

A terrifying moonlight energy gushed out from the Moon Staff and filled the entire void. The power was so overwhelming that everyone present, except Yun Lintian, couldn't even stand

up straight.

A colossal moon phantom manifested behind Yue Yun, its radiant light illuminating the surrounding space with an ethereal glow. The phantom's gentle yet powerful aura washed over everyone, bringing a sense of tranquility and peace.

Yue Yun raised the Moon Staff and pointed it towards the broken barrier.

"Mend."

A beam of moonlight shot out from the Moon Staff and landed on the shattered barrier. The shattered pieces trembled violently as if they had gained life. They began to move, rearranging themselves, slowly closing the gap in the barrier.

Everyone watched in awe as the barrier gradually healed, the cracks and fissures disappearing one by one. The moonlight energy from the Moon Staff seemed to weave a delicate tapestry of light, mending the broken barrier with an otherworldly precision.

Within moments, the barrier was completely restored, its shimmering surface once again reflecting the vast expanse of the starry sky. The Divine Realm was once again sealed, safe from the prying eyes and greedy hands of the Primordial God Tribe.

A collective sigh of relief swept through the crowd. They had witnessed a miracle, a testament to the Moon God's power and Yue Yun's mastery over it.

"Thank you," Yun Lintian said sincerely, looking at Yue Yun with gratitude in his eyes.

Yue Yun said indifferently. "It's nothing. It's my responsibility to protect this world."

She turned to Dao Ling, her expression hardening. "As for you..."

Dao Ling's face paled.

"Please, spare me!" he pleaded, his voice trembling with fear. "I can still be useful to you! I know many secrets of the Primordial God Tribe!"

Yue Yun's eyes narrowed. "Secrets?" she asked, a hint of curiosity in her voice. "Tell me about

it."
