Ren Yuan wiped golden blood from his lips, his smirk returning despite the shock in his eyes. "Yun Lintian... I was wondering when you'd show up."
Yun Lintian didn't respond. He simply raised his hand—
BOOM!
The God-Slaying Sword returned to his grip in a flash of silver light. The moment his fingers closed around the hilt, the entire endless abyss seemed to hold its breath.
Ren Yuan's golden eyes narrowed. "You've gotten stronger."
Yun Lintian took a step forward.
The ground beneath him cracked, not from force, but from the sheer weight of his aura.
Ren Yuan's smirk faltered slightly. He had expected Yun Lintian to be powerful, but this... this was different.
"Heavenly Decree: Oblivion."
Ren Yuan struck first, unleashing a beam of black-and-gold energy that could erase even a Primordial God's existence.
Yun Lintian didn't dodge.
He swung his sword.
RIP!
The beam split apart like paper, dissipating into nothingness before it could even reach him.
