Myth Beyond Heaven

Mo Lianxing's scream died in her throat, replaced by a gasp as a surge of power, sharp and frigid, erupted within her. It felt like a dam breaking, a torrent of icy energy flooding her very being.

The invisible shackles that Shi Xuan's aura had imposed on her shattered, replaced by a newfound sense of liberation.

She pushed herself up, a primal growl escaping her lips. Gone was the fear and humiliation that had just moments ago choked her. In its place burned an icy fury, a relentless desire to resist.

Shi Xuan, his draconic gaze fixed on her, raised an eyebrow in amusement. The unexpected turn of events seemed to have sparked a flicker of interest within him.

The air crackled with anticipation as the pressure in the chamber intensified.

Mo Lianxing, her eyes glowing with an eerie blue light, rose to her full height. The Frostmourn Spear, propelled by the surge of energy, flew back into her grasp, its frosty surface humming with otherworldly power.

A layer of shimmering ice, reminiscent of a spiderweb, materialized around Mo Lianxing, encasing her in a protective cocoon. The air around her dropped several degrees, sending wisps of frost swirling into existence.

"Let's see what you got here." Shi Xuan, a predatory grin twisting his lips, unleashed a wave of dark energy. It surged towards Mo Lianxing, a black serpent coiling in mid-air, its maw gaping to devour.

Mo Lianxing raised the Frostmourn Spear, her movements imbued with a newfound grace and power. The spear, responding to her will, pulsed with a blinding blue light. With a defiant roar, she met the black serpent head-on.

BOOOM—

The clash was a symphony of destruction. The black serpent, infused with Shi Xuan's immense power, slammed into the shimmering ice dome. The air crackled with a deafening roar as the two forces collided.

The ice dome shimmered, cracks spider webbing across its surface. But it held. The chilling aura emanating from Mo Lianxing intensified, reinforcing the dome just as it threatened to shatter.

The stalemate didn't last long. Shi Xuan, a flicker of annoyance crossing his face, raised a hand. His fingers curled into a claw, and with a flick of his wrist, a torrent of inky black flames erupted from his palm.

The flames, cold and devoid of warmth, burned with an otherworldly intensity. They surged towards Mo Lianxing's ice dome, their touch causing the ice to hiss and sizzle as it began to melt.

Mo Lianxing gritted her teeth, channeling the icy power within her. The Frostmourn Spear pulsed even brighter, and with a desperate cry, she unleashed a torrent of pure frost energy.

A blinding blizzard erupted from the spearhead, forming a raging white hurricane that met the black flames head-on.

BOOM!!

The two forces collided in a maelstrom of destruction, the chamber shuddering under the immense pressure.

The air around them crackled and warped, the temperature fluctuating wildly between scorching heat and bone-chilling cold. The remaining True Gods, caught in the crossfire, scrambled for cover, their faces solemn.

The blizzard raged for a moment, then began to gain the upper hand. The icy energy, fueled by the power surging within Mo Lianxing, slowly pushed back the black flames, extinguishing them inch by inch.

"Hmm?" Shi Xuan, a frown etched on his face, clenched his fist. The unexpected resistance seemed to have finally piqued his true interest. With a growl, he unleashed his full power.

The entire chamber pulsed with a dark aura. The air grew thick and heavy, the pressure becoming so immense that even the surrounding space seemed to groan under its weight.

Above Mo Lianxing, a colossal dragon formed from swirling dark mist materialized. Its draconic eyes glowed with an eerie red light, and its maw gaped open, revealing rows of razor-sharp teeth that dripped with a malevolent aura.

This was a glimpse of the true power of Long Xuan, the Dragon of Death. And as the dragon lunged towards Mo Lianxing, the air crackled with an energy that threatened to annihilate everything in its path.

Mo Lianxing, despite the newfound power coursing through her veins, felt a wave of terror wash over her. The sheer scale and intensity of Shi Xuan's attack were unlike anything she had ever encountered.

But before she could succumb to fear, a voice resonated within her mind, a voice cold and detached yet brimming with power.

"How dare you fear him with my power?"

The voice sent a chill running down Mo Lianxing's spine. The fear in her heart immediately dissipated.

"Hah!" With a defiant roar, she channeled the icy power within her, channeling it into the Frostmourn Spear. The spear pulsed with a blinding blue light, its intensity rivaling the red glow of the dragon's eyes.

She raised the spear high, its tip aimed directly at the lunging dragon.

Suddenly, a blinding flash erupted from the spearhead. It wasn't just light; it was a wave of pure, concentrated energy that defied definition.

The icy power within Mo Lianxing, amplified by the mysterious force, had transcended its form, becoming something entirely new.

BANG!!

The wave of energy slammed into the colossal dragon with a force that shook the very foundations of the God Tomb.

The air shimmered and distorted, unable to contain the sheer power unleashed. A deafening boom echoed through the chamber, the sound resonating with a bone-deep tremor.

Shi Xuan, caught off guard by the sudden surge of power, was forced to retreat. He raised a hand, a dark energy barrier materializing in front of him just as the wave of energy reached him.

The barrier, shimmering with an ominous glow, met the icy blast head-on.

BOOOOM—

The clash was a spectacle of unimaginable power. The dark energy barrier writhed and pulsed under the onslaught, cracks appearing across its surface like spiderwebs.

The icy wave, relentless in its fury, pushed against the barrier, threatening to overwhelm it entirely.

Shi Xuan, his draconic face contorted in surprise, channeled even more power into the barrier. The dark energy pulsed brighter, temporarily halting the advance of the icy wave. But the momentary stalemate was a testament to the unexpected power Mo Lianxing now wielded.

"What power is this?!" Yun Huanxin gasped, stunned. The power Mo Lianxing unleashed was beyond her comprehension.

On the side, Long Qingxuan fixed her gaze on Shi Xuan's broad back. An inexplicable sense of familiarity washed over her.

Crackle!

The stalemate between Shi Xuan's barrier and Mo Lianxing's icy wave wouldn't last long. The power within Mo Lianxing, fueled by the mysterious force, pushed relentlessly forward. Slowly, but surely, the cracks on the barrier began to widen…
