Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2419: Confinement



The mysterious figure's voice, devoid of emotion, echoed through the desolate landscape as he pursued Tantai Xue, his figure a blur of motion, the Heaven Piercing Sword a beacon of chaotic energy that tore through the fabric of reality.

"Do you think you can catch me?"

Tantai Xue, her form flickering through the distorted space, her laughter echoing through the chaos, attempted to evade the relentless pursuit. But the mysterious figure, his mastery of the sword unmatched, his determination unwavering, closed the distance with every stride.

He appeared before her in a flash, the Heaven Piercing Sword slicing through the air, its blade aimed at her heart. Tantai Xue, her eyes widening in surprise, barely managed to deflect the attack, the force of the blow sending her hurtling backward.

BANG!

She crashed to the ground, her body battered and bruised, her breath ragged. The mysterious figure, his expression unchanged, his movements fluid and effortless, stood over her, the Heaven Piercing Sword poised to deliver the final blow.

Tantai Xue, her eyes filled with disbelief and frustration, glared at the figure. "You..." she growled, her voice laced with anger, "you dare to injure me?"

The mysterious figure, his gaze cold and unwavering, simply nodded. "You have interfered with matters beyond your comprehension," he said, his voice a chilling whisper that echoed through the desolate expanse. "You have disrupted the balance, and now, you must pay the price."

He raised the Heaven Piercing Sword, its blade gleaming with destructive light, ready to end Tantai Xue's existence.

But just as he was about to strike, Tantai Xue unleashed a surge of power, her divine energy erupting, her control over reality intensifying. The desolate landscape around them warped and twisted, the very air crackling with chaotic energy.

"You think you've won?" she snarled, her voice filled with venomous rage. "You think you can defeat me?"

She raised her hand, and a wave of invisible force enveloped Yun Lintian and his companions, trapping them within an impenetrable barrier, a prison of distorted reality.

"They will pay the price for your insolence," she declared, her eyes gleaming with malevolent light. "They will be trapped here forever, their souls forever bound to this cursed land."

Yun Lintian and his companions, their bodies paralyzed, their powers suppressed, could only watch in horror as Tantai Xue unleashed her wrath.

The mysterious figure, his expression hardening, turned toward Tantai Xue, his eyes blazing with cold fury.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

He lunged toward Tantai Xue, his swordsmanship reaching a pinnacle of destructive power, his every strike fueled by anger.

The Heaven Piercing Sword, infused with his boundless sword intent, pierced through Tantai Xue's defenses, inflicting a grievous wound that sent shockwaves through her very being. Puff!

Tantai Xue stumbled back, her form flickering, her control over reality faltering. Blood gushed from her chest as she retreated to a far distance.

The desolate landscape around them rippled and distorted, the chaotic energy surging and receding like a raging tide.

With a desperate surge of power, she tore a rift in the fabric of reality, creating a portal that pulsed with ominous energy.

"I will return," she vowed, her voice echoing through the distorted space, "and when I do, I will unleash chaos that will consume this world and all who inhabit it."

She glanced at Yun Lintian and his companions, her eyes filled with malevolent glee. "And you," she sneered, "you will be the first to perish."

With a final burst of chaotic energy, she shattered the barrier that protected the inner zone, unleashing a torrent of raw, untamed power that flooded the desolate landscape.

The Ancient True Gods gasped, their bodies trembling under the onslaught of chaotic energy, their powers suppressed by the overwhelming force.

"She has breached the inner zone!" He Chong exclaimed, his voice filled with alarm. "The chaotic energy from within...it's suffocating us!"

The desolate landscape warped and twisted, the very air growing heavy and oppressive, the remnants of fallen gods groaning under the strain.

Yun Lintian and his companions, trapped within Tantai Xue's impenetrable barrier, felt their strength draining away, their bodies growing heavy, their senses dulled.

"Good luck with that," Tantai Xue laughed coldly and vanished into the portal.

The mysterious figure, his expression grim, turned toward the shattered barrier, his eyes filled with deep regret. Had his strength fully recovered, he could have easily subdued Tantai Xue.

Buzz-

He raised his hand, channeling the remaining power within him, and with a final, desperate gesture, he sealed the breach, preventing the chaotic energy from flooding further into the Ancient Battlefield.

The desolate landscape stabilized, the chaotic energy receding, the oppressive weight lifting slightly. But the damage was done. The inner zone had been breached, its secrets exposed, its chaotic power unleashed.

And Yun Lintian and his companions remained trapped, their fates uncertain, their hopes fading.

The mysterious figure, his energy depleted, his body weakened, turned toward Yun Lintian's prison, his eyes filled with profound helplessness. He had no strength left to break the barrier, to free them from their confinement.

The seven swords and the Heaven Piercing Sword hovered around him anxiously, as if begging him to rescue Yun Lintian.

The mysterious figure sat down and turned to look at He Chong and the other Ancient True Gods. "All of you, use your power to strengthen the barrier. Otherwise, the Primal Chaos will fall into chaos."

"Senior," He Chong took a deep breath and asked cautiously, "what happened inside the inner zone?"

"A tunnel," the mysterious figure replied calmly. "There's a tunnel leading to the world beyond the Primal Chaos Wall. It won't be long before those outlaws come over. We have to

buy as much time as possible."

"The tunnel!" He Chong and the others gasped in shock.

They didn't hesitate to join hands and strengthen the barrier under He Chong's lead. He used the strongest formation he had learned from his master to seal the barrier.

The mysterious figure took one last glance at the prison that confined Yun Lintian and his companions before closing his eyes, trying to recover his strength.

Inside the prison, Yun Lintian tried to summon the Gate of Beyond Heaven, but it was futile. There seemed to be something blocking him and the gate.

"What kind of power is this?" Nantian Fengyu said in confusion. She had never seen such a

strange and absolute power before.

"The Law of Order," Mumu said. "I thought it was completely gone. Someone could actually master it to this level. Who is this Tantai Xue?"
