Myth Beyond Heaven - Chapter 2163: Raging Thunder (3)

Yun Lintian raised his Heaven Piercing Sword as a bolt of golden lightning struck down from the heavens, infusing the blade with celestial power.

The sword hummed with an otherworldly energy, its golden aura expanding until it enveloped the entire chamber.

“Hmm?” Dian Lei’s pupils constricted.

Yun Lintian’s eyes blazed with a newfound intensity as he channeled the Law of Lightning to its absolute limit.

The lightning storm that Dian Lei had summoned earlier surged towards Yun Lintian, drawn by his overwhelming control over the elemental force.

The lightning bolts, once Dian Lei’s weapons, now danced around Yun Lintian like obedient servants. They crackled and pulsed with newfound vigor, their energy amplifying Yun Lintian’s already formidable aura.

“This is… the true essence of lightning,” Yun Lintian declared, his voice resonating with the power of a thunder god. “You may have the Law of Lightning, but you lack the understanding to wield its full potential.”

With a flick of his wrist, Yun Lintian redirected the lightning storm back towards Dian Lei.

The storm, now infused with Yun Lintian’s own energy, roared towards Dian Lei with the fury of a thousand thunderclaps.

Dian Lei, caught off guard by this sudden reversal, hastily raised his lightning spear to defend himself. But the storm was too powerful, its energy overwhelming his defenses.

BANG!

The lightning bolts crashed against him, their electric fury searing his flesh and sending him sprawling to the ground.

Dian Lei, battered and bruised, looked up at Yun Lintian with a mixture of shock and awe. “Unbelievable,” he muttered, his voice barely a whisper. “Your mastery over the law has improved so much in a short time.”

The chamber fell silent, the only sound the crackling of residual lightning energy in the air.

Yun Lintian stood above Dian Lei, his Heaven Piercing Sword glowing with a faint golden light. His expression remained calm, his eyes reflecting a deep understanding of the Law of Lightning.

“You are right,” Dian Lei admitted, a trace of humility replacing his earlier arrogance. “I have underestimated you.” He slowly rose to his feet, his body still bearing the marks of Yun Lintian’s attack. “But this is not the end.”

A spark of defiance ignited in Dian Lei’s eyes. He raised his lightning spear, its tip once again crackling with electric energy. “The Law of Lightning has many facets. You have merely scratched the surface.”

“Show me then.” Yun Lintian said calmly.

“Sure,” With a deep breath, Dian Lei closed his eyes, his aura flaring with renewed intensity. The lightning spear in his hand began to hum, its energy resonating with the surrounding atmosphere.

As he opened his eyes, they crackled with pure electricity, their intensity rivaling the lightning bolts dancing around him. “Witness the true might of a True God,” he declared, his voice echoing with thunderous authority.

He raised his spear, and the very air around him seemed to warp and twist, bending to his will.

The lightning bolts that had danced around Yun Lintian now swarmed towards Dian Lei, their chaotic energy coalescing into a swirling vortex of destruction.

With a powerful thrust, Dian Lei launched the vortex towards Yun Lintian, its destructive force threatening to consume everything in its path.

Yun Lintian’s eyes narrowed in concentration. He raised his Heaven Piercing Sword, its golden light shining brightly as he channeled his understanding of the Law of Lightning.

A shield of golden energy materialized around him, deflecting the incoming vortex.

BOOOM—

The two forces collided, the resulting shockwave shaking the chamber to its core. The very air crackled with tension as the lightning and celestial energy struggled for dominance.

Undeterred, Dian Lei lunged forward, his spear a blur of motion. He unleashed a series of lightning-fast strikes, each aimed at breaching Yun Lintian’s defenses.

Yun Lintian parried each blow with precision, his sword deflecting the spear with a shower of sparks.

The two warriors engaged in a breathtaking duel, their movements so swift that they appeared as mere afterimages to the naked eye.

The chamber echoed with the deafening clang of metal on metal, the air thick with the smell of ozone and burnt steel.

Yun Lintian, drawing upon the boundless energy of the Law of Lightning, unleashed a powerful counterattack. He channeled his lightning energy into the Heaven Piercing Sword, transforming it into a beacon of pure electricity.

With a mighty roar, he swung the sword downwards, releasing a torrent of lightning bolts that rained down upon Dian Lei.

Dian Lei, unfazed, raised his spear to meet the onslaught. His spear, infused with the raw power of the Law of Lightning, deflected each bolt with ease, the resulting explosions illuminating the chamber with a blinding light.

The battle raged on, neither combatant willing to yield. Yun Lintian, fueled by his unwavering determination, pressed his attack relentlessly.

Dian Lei, his pride wounded, fought back with equal ferocity, his every strike filled with the power of a True God.

The chamber trembled under the strain of their battle, the walls cracking and crumbling as their attacks intensified.

In a moment of clarity, Yun Lintian saw an opening in Dian Lei’s defense. With a lightning-fast maneuver, he feinted to the left, then struck with a blindingly fast thrust to the right.

Puff!

The Heaven Piercing Sword pierced through Dian Lei’s lightning armor, drawing a gasp of pain from the True God.

Dian Lei stumbled backward, clutching his wounded shoulder. A look of surprise crossed his face as he realized that he had been injured by a mere mortal.

Yun Lintian, his sword dripping with Dian Lei’s blood, raised his head, his eyes blazing with triumph. “You are not invincible,” he declared, his voice echoing through the chamber. “Even a True God can be defeated.”

Instead of angry, Dian Lei smiled. “You have not won yet,” he spoke. “This battle is far from over.”

He raised his spear once more, its tip glowing with a malevolent energy. “Watch it carefully.”

A deafening roar echoed through the chamber as Dian Lei unleashed his ultimate attack. A bolt of lightning, thicker than any seen before, erupted from his spear, striking Yun Lintian with devastating force.

BANG!

Yun Lintian, caught off guard by the sheer power of the attack, was sent flying backward, his body slamming into a wall. He gasped for air, his vision blurring as the lightning coursed through his veins.

“How is it?” Dian Lei chuckled. He charged forward, his spear raised for the final blow.

But as he neared Yun Lintian, a sense of unease washed over him. Something was wrong…
