Chapter 2157 Moon Graveyard (2)

??Yun Lintian expertly controlled the wind, directing it to buffet the chimera, hindering its movements.

The beast stumbled, its balance thrown off by the unpredictable gusts. Yun Lintian seized the opportunity. He channeled the Law of Fire once more, conjuring a single, scorching orb of condensed flame. This wasn't a mere blast, but a concentrated ball of pure fire, imbued with the essence of destruction.

He launched the fiery orb with a flick of his wrist. It streaked through the air like a meteor, leaving a trail of searing heat. The chimera, momentarily disoriented by the wind, had no time to react.

Boom!!

The orb struck true, exploding on impact and engulfing the beast's head in an inferno. A deafening screech echoed through the labyrinth as the chimera thrashed wildly, trying to extinguish the flames.

But the flames, fueled by the Law of Fire, were relentless. They licked at the chimera's fur, searing the flesh beneath. The creature, its once proud demeanor reduced to a frenzied struggle, stumbled back, crashing onto a nearby floating island.

The earth trembled with the chimera's impact. Yun Lintian watched with a wary eye as the flames died down, revealing a smoldering mess where the creature once stood.

He wasn't naive enough to believe it was dead. Creatures of the God Ascension Realm possessed formidable vitality. But for now, it seemed subdued, giving him a moment to assess the situation.

He landed on the island, staying a safe distance from the still form. The air reeked of burnt fur and singed flesh, a testament to the destructive power of his combined Laws.

Rumble—

Suddenly, the island began to rumble. Yun Lintian's eyes widened as he saw cracks spreading across the surface. The chimera, its body ablaze but seemingly unharmed, was using the Law of Earth to manipulate the island itself.

With a mighty heave, the chimera erupted from the ground, covered in molten rock but its red eyes burning with renewed fury. The Laws of Fire and Earth seemed to coalesce around its form, forming a menacing, obsidian armor.

"You are a persistent pest," the chimera rasped, its voice a cacophony of growls and hisses. "But even insects meet their end eventually."

Yun Lintian stood firm, his expression resolute. "I won't be beaten by a mindless beast."

He raised his hand, the fire sword dissolving into a swirling vortex of golden energy. This time, the Law of Wind was woven into the flames, creating a spectacle of golden fire dancing in a miniature tornado.

The chimera charged, its enhanced form radiating immense power. But Yun Lintian, utilizing the Law of Lightning once more, was a blur on the battlefield. He danced around the lumbering beast, weaving through its attacks like a phantom.

The golden inferno in his hand grew larger, swirling faster, consuming the air around him. He waited for the perfect opportunity, studying the chimera's movements and the subtle twitches of its armor.

Then, with a roar that echoed through the space, the chimera unleashed a torrent of molten rock. The projectiles rained down like a fiery meteor shower.

Yun Lintian, anticipating the attack, focused on the Law of Wind. He manipulated the air currents, creating a shield of swirling wind around him.

The molten rocks, caught in the whirlwind, were deflected, raining harmlessly upon the island.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Seizing the moment, Yun Lintian launched the fiery vortex. It was a monstrous inferno now, a swirling tempest of golden flames imbued with the destructive power of two Laws. The air itself crackled with the intensity of the attack.

"How dare you!?" The chimera roared in defiance, raising its obsidian claws to shield itself. But the impact was devastating. The fiery vortex slammed into the beast, engulfing it in a conflagration that rivaled the sun itself.

The chimera shrieked, a sound of pure agony, as the inferno burned through its defenses. The ground shook as the very island began to melt under the intense heat.

The battle raged on, the ethereal moonlight momentarily obscured by the raging inferno. Yun Lintian pushed his limits, pouring everything he had into the attack.

BOOOM—

Finally, with a bone-jarring explosion, the fiery vortex dissipated. The island was no more, vaporized by the sheer intensity of the clash. In its place, a swirling vortex of molten rock and dust remained.

Exhausted but victorious, Yun Lintian landed on a nearby island, panting heavily. Relief washed over him, the adrenaline from the battle slowly ebbing away. He knew facing a God Ascension Realm beast was tough, but his mastery over multiple Laws had proven effective.

Taking a deep breath, he cautiously approached the chimera's remains, wary of any hidden surprises. As he neared, a faint, ethereal glow emanated from the beast's body. It pulsed faintly, beckoning him closer.

Intrigued, Yun Lintian reached out and touched the glow. A surge of energy coursed through him, flooding his mind with fragmented memories—visions of a celestial battlefield, a radiant woman wielding a crescent moonblade, and a ferocious, unending battle.

The visions were fleeting, yet potent. They left Yun Lintian reeling, his mind struggling to piece together the fragmented narrative. It was then that he noticed something peculiar. A crescent moon-shaped emblem, similar to the symbol on the stone door, shimmered faintly on the chimera's forehead.

Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. He shouldn't have killed the chimera too soon. Otherwise, he would have learned about this place. Perhaps it was a guardian of this place. But who did it guard? And what significance did the fragmented memories hold?

His gaze drifted towards the colossal statue in the distance. The resemblance to the woman in the coffin was undeniable. Could these visions be hers? Was this place somehow connected to her past?

"Let's see."

Fueled by newfound curiosity, Yun Lintian continued his journey, navigating the treacherous path between the floating islands.

The ethereal glow from the moon statue grew stronger with each step, bathing the labyrinth in an almost sacred light.

As he neared the statue, the air crackled with a strange energy. It was a mix of reverence and sorrow, an echo of a bygone era. Reaching the base of the statue, Yun Lintian found an inscription carved into the stone pedestal.

The inscription, written in an ancient script, spoke of a celestial war, a valiant champion who defended the moon against encroaching darkness, and a sacrifice made to preserve the balance.

"Divine Moon Clan?" Yun Lintian's eyes landed on a familiar name.

Clearly, this wasn't just any graveyard; it was the Moon Graveyard, the final resting place of the Divine Moon Clan's heroes!
