Chapter 2098 Illusion (2)

?The arena resonated with a deafening boom as the beam of light collided with the Hell Asura. The creature screeched in pain as the emerald light burned into its flesh, leaving deep, smoldering wounds. It stumbled back, momentarily stunned.

Si Junyi’s eyes widened in shock. The Hell Asura was supposed to be nearly invincible! But Yun Lintian had injured it with a single strike. His confidence wavered for the first time.

Yun Lintian didn’t waste the opportunity. He charged forward, his movements imbued with an otherworldly grace as he channeled the Great Law of Life.

The air around him shimmered as he danced around the lumbering Hell Asura, each swing of the Heaven Piercing Sword leaving a searing mark.

“HAH!” The Hell Asura roared in frustration, its attacks becoming increasingly wild and desperate. But Yun Lintian was like a whirlwind, easily evading its blows. It was as if he could predict its every move.

Puff!

With a final, decisive strike, Yun Lintian pierced the Hell Asura’s heart. The creature let out a final, ear-splitting shriek before collapsing into a heap of dust.

Si Junyi’s face turned grim. He stared at Yun Lintian coldly and said. “Not bad. It seems you have improved a lot.”

Yun Lintian remained vigilant, the Heaven Piercing Sword held high. He knew the true battle had just begun.

“Enough playing around,” Si Junyi declared, his eyes flashing with a dark light. “Prepare to face the true power of the Great Law of Death!”

As he spoke, a dark aura erupted from him, spreading outwards like a malevolent tide. The air grew heavy, the very life force seeming to be sucked away. The once vibrant arena floor began to wither and crack, overtaken by a creeping darkness.

Yun Lintian felt a surge of primal fear wash over him. This wasn’t the same Si Junyi he’d faced before. The Great Law of Death in Si Junyi’s hand felt… different. It was colder, more potent, as if fueled by a deep well of hatred.

He gritted his teeth, channeling the Great Law of Life even harder. The emerald light intensified, pushing back against the encroaching darkness. It was a constant tug-of-war, a battle between creation and destruction.

Boom! Boom! BOOOM!!

The two figures clashed. Yun Lintian, fueled by the life force he channeled, moved with incredible speed, his strikes imbued with vibrant energy.

Si Junyi, on the other hand, fought with a chilling efficiency, his attacks laced with a corrupting darkness that sought to devour anything it touched.

The arena became a battleground of light and dark. Yun Lintian landed several blows, each one leaving a smoldering wound on Si Junyi’s body. But the wounds seemed to heal almost instantly, fueled by the dark energy Si Junyi wielded.

The battle became a stalemate. Yun Lintian, despite his newfound power, couldn’t overpower the corrupting influence of the Great Law of Death. Si Junyi, on the other hand, couldn’t land a decisive blow against Yun Lintian’s relentless onslaught.

They fought for what felt like an eternity, both pushing their bodies and Laws to the limit. Exhaustion gnawed at Yun Lintian, but he wouldn’t yield. He had to win for his friends, for his family.

Suddenly, an idea sparked in his mind. The Great Law of Life wasn’t just about creation, it was also about adaptation. He had to find a way to turn Si Junyi’s own dark energy against him.

Focusing all his remaining energy, Yun Lintian unleashed a powerful burst of life force. It wasn’t an attack, but a concentrated wave of pure life energy. The arena shimmered, the very air crackling with raw power.

Si Junyi, caught off guard, was momentarily stunned. The pure life force clashed with the dark energy he wielded, creating a violent backlash. He stumbled back, a look of pain contorting his face.

This was Yun Lintian’s chance. He channeled the last vestiges of his strength into a single, desperate swing of the Heaven Piercing Sword. The emerald light blazed with an intensity that rivaled the sun, fueled by the remnants of the life force explosion.

Puff—

The blade connected with Si Junyi’s chest, the dark aura around him flickering wildly.

“Argh!” A scream ripped from Si Junyi’s throat as the emerald light burned into him, not just physically, but also on a fundamental level. The corrupting influence of the Great Law of Death fought back, but it was overwhelmed by the sheer power of Yun Lintian’s attack.

BOOOM—

With a final, earth-shattering boom, Si Junyi’s body disintegrated into a cloud of dark mist that dissipated into nothingness.

Silence descended upon the arena, broken only by Yun Lintian’s ragged breaths.

“Hah… Hah…” He collapsed to his knees, the Heaven Piercing Sword clattering to the ground. His vision swam, the world around him blurring. He had won, but the victory tasted like ash in his mouth.

The battle had taken everything out of him, both physically and emotionally.

As he lay there, on the verge of unconsciousness, a soft, emerald light enveloped him, washing away his fatigue and injuries. It was the Tree of Life, offering its silent support, its unwavering belief in him.

At this moment, a satisfied hum resonated through the white void as the spectral figure reappeared before Yun Lintian, who was still recovering under the gentle glow of the Tree of Life’s light.

“Remarkable,” the figure boomed, its voice echoing with a hint of amusement. “You have not only conquered the trials of your deepest fears but also learned to adapt and counter your opponent’s power mid-battle. A rare feat for one so young.”

Yun Lintian, his eyes fluttering open, glanced at the spectral figure silently.

The spectral figure tilted its head slightly. “Failure is a stepping stone on the path to mastery, Yun Lintian. What matters most is how you rise from it. Your unwavering resolve and your ingenious use of the Great Law of Life to turn the tide were truly impressive.”

The figure extended a hand towards Yun Lintian, the white light coalescing into a shimmering orb. “You have proven yourself worthy. Take this. It is a fragment of the Soul Scepter, a key to unlocking its true potential.”

Yun Lintian hesitantly reached out, accepting the orb. As his fingers brushed against it, a surge of energy coursed through him, invigorating his tired body. He could feel an intricate connection forming between himself and the fragment.

“This fragment,” the figure continued, “offers a deeper understanding of the Soul Scepter and its capabilities.” A brief pause, then he added, “However, you are not the only one who got this.”
