Chapter 2396: One Strike



Yun Lintian's eyes narrowed as he recognized the figure standing before them: Qin Muyang, the man who had tried to capture Nantian Fengyu.

Beside Qin Muyang stood several figures, radiating power and menace. Each was a God Ascension Realm cultivator, their eyes fixed on Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu with undisguised hostility. Among them was a figure that sent a chill down Yun Lintian's spine- Gu Buxiu.

The eccentric, corpse-loving cultivator from the God Tomb. His presence was unsettling, a reminder of his twisted experiments and grotesque creations. Though Yun Lintian knew this was likely an avatar, a fraction of Gu Buxiu's true power, the sight of him still filled him with

unease.

"Oh, it's you!" Gu Buxiu grinned, delighted to see Yun Lintian. "I've been looking for you all this time. And you actually came here."

Yun Lintian frowned slightly but said nothing.

"Master, you know him?" Qin Muyang asked in surprise.

"Hehe. No wonder you couldn't capture this little fire chick," Gu Buxiu chuckled. "Last time, you were lucky to escape my grasp. Let's see how you escape this time."

"Lucky?" Yun Lintian scoffed, a hint of disdain in his voice. "You call running away with your tail between your legs 'lucky'?"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Gu Buxiu's smile faltered, replaced by a flicker of annoyance. "Insolent brat! You were clearly at a disadvantage back then. Don't get cocky just because you've gained some strength."

"Whether I'm cocky or not, you'll find out soon enough," Yun Lintian retorted, his eyes hardening. He turned to Nantian Fengyu. "Fifth Sister, you handle the others. I'll deal with these two."

Nantian Fengyu nodded, her gaze sweeping over the God Ascension Realm cultivators.

A wave of scorching heat emanated from her, the air shimmering around her as her Divine Phoenix flames surged forth. Unlike Yun Lintian's crimson flames, hers burned with an intense, golden hue, a testament to her pure bloodline and mastery over fire.

"Kill!" one of the cultivators roared, brandishing a gleaming spear as he charged toward Nantian Fengyu.

Unfazed, Yun Lintian met their charge with fearless determination. The Heaven Piercing Sword became a blur of motion, its blade slicing through the creatures with ease, each strike imbued with the purifying power of the Divine Phoenix flames.

The battlefield became a chaotic spectacle of fire and flesh, the air filled with the stench of decay and the roar of flames. Yun Lintian, bathed in fiery crimson, fought like a god of war, radiating power and grace.

Nantian Fengyu, witnessing his display, felt a surge of pride and admiration. She had always known Yun Lintian was powerful, but she had never seen him unleash his full potential like this.

With renewed vigor, she unleashed her own Divine Phoenix flames, the golden fire contrasting with Yun Lintian's crimson inferno. The battlefield became a mesmerizing dance of fire, the two forces intertwining and clashing, creating a symphony of destruction. "This is getting troublesome," Gu Buxiu muttered, his eyes hardening. "It seems I need to take this seriously."

A surge of terrifying energy erupted from him, his True God aura exploding outward like a

shockwave.

The very air crackled with power, the ground trembling. The God Ascension Realm cultivators surrounding Nantian Fengyu staggered back, their faces pale with fear.

"A True God," Nantian Fengyu said, frowning slightly.

Gu Buxiu grinned, relishing her surprise. "Now, let's see how you fare against this!" He raised his hand, and a wave of corrupted energy surged toward Yun Lintian, its power capable of obliterating even a peak God Ascension Realm cultivator instantly.

Yun Lintian's expression remained unchanged. The Great Law of Life surged through his veins, filling him with unimaginable power, transcending life and death, creation and destruction.

Before Gu Buxiu could react, Yun Lintian raised his hand and pointed a finger. A beam of pure, life-giving energy shot forth, piercing through Gu Buxiu's defenses like a hot knife through

butter.

Puff!

Gu Buxiu's eyes widened in disbelief, his grin frozen in place. He felt his energy draining away, his very existence unraveling under the touch of the Great Law of Life.

"Impossible..." he gasped, his voice barely a whisper...
