Myth Beyond Heaven

A tense silence descended upon the Fleeting Cloud Profound Skyship. Yun Lintian narrowed his eyes, his gaze piercing the vast emptiness separating them from the approaching vessels.

Unlike the ragtag collection of ships they'd encountered in the Divine Realm, this group exuded an air of chilling order and power. Each ship, sleek and menacing in its design, seemed to radiate a faint, oppressive aura.

"They are no ordinary pirates," Yun Qianxue said calmly. Her keen senses picked up the faint hum of powerful formations woven into the hulls of the approaching ships.

"Indeed," Yun Lintian agreed, a flicker of steel flashing in his eyes. This is a pirate fleet, but a very well-equipped and well-coordinated one."

Qingqing, ever the impulsive one, scoffed. "Hmph, a bunch of glorified robbers daring to show off in front of us? Let's teach them a lesson, Big Brother Yun!"

"Let's wait and see first." Yun Lintian, however, held up a hand, silencing her.

He wasn't about to underestimate these pirates. Their very presence in this desolate expanse of space, far from the usual trade routes, hinted at their ruthlessness and disregard for authority. Perhaps they were a notorious group known for preying on unsuspecting travelers in these uncharted territories.

As the pirate fleet drew closer, Yun Lintian activated the Fleeting Cloud's defensive formations. A shimmering barrier of azure light enveloped the ship, deflecting the prying gazes of the pirates' soul senses. He wanted to be as low-key as possible but wouldn't mind fighting these people here.

A booming voice, laced with arrogance, echoed across the void. "Halt! This is Captain Bloodfang of the Crimson Gale! Identify yourselves and state your business in our territory!"

Yun Lintian's lips curled into a faint smile. It seemed these pirates operated with their own sense of dominion in this lawless sector. He decided to have a little fun with them.

With a theatrical flourish, he stepped onto the deck, his presence radiating a subtle pressure that made even his closest companions take a step back.

"Captain Bloodfang?" he boomed back, his voice carrying across the void. "We are humble travelers, merely passing through on our way."

On the flagship, Captain Bloodfang, a hulking figure with a blood-red beard, stared at Yun Qianxue and the others with a greedy glint. This group of women was definitely the best he had seen in a long time.

"Hahaha! We are lucky today. Boys, prepare for boarding!" he shouted loudly.

The oppressive aura intensified as the pirate ships maneuvered into attack positions. Yun Lintian's smirk widened. It seemed a peaceful passage through this sector was no longer an option. A thrill of anticipation coursed through him. He hadn't faced a real challenge in a while, and these pirates, arrogant as they were, might just provide some much-needed entertainment.

As the pirate ships swarmed towards the Fleeting Cloud, a cold glint flickered in Yun Lintian's eyes. He raised a hand, silencing the worried gasps emanating from his companions. "No need to interfere. Consider this a warm-up."

With a flick of his wrist, a wave of azure energy erupted from his palm. It wasn't the full might of his power, but a mere fraction, condensed into a precise and devastating attack. The seemingly innocuous wave rippled outwards, engulfing the approaching pirate vessels.

A startled roar erupted from Captain Bloodfang as the azure wave slammed into his flagship. The ship, pulsating with defensive formations, shuddered violently under the assault. With a sickening crack, the formations shattered, and the hull vaporized in a blinding flash. The shockwave from the explosion propagated outwards, tearing through the smaller pirate ships like flimsy paper dolls.

Chaos erupted. Alarms blared, screams echoed through the void, and desperate scrambling filled the space as the surviving pirates attempted to evade the expanding wave. However, Yun Lintian's attack had been calculated.

The azure wave, imbued with the power of his Great Law of Death, not only destroyed but also devoured. It consumed the life force of anything it touched, leaving behind only a chilling emptiness.

One by one, the pirate ships met their demise. Larger vessels fared slightly better, their more robust hulls offering some resistance. But even these behemoths were no match for the relentless wave of destruction. They were ripped apart, their crews dissolving into wisps of dissipating energy, their final screams cut short by the encroaching oblivion.

From the Fleeting Cloud Skyship, Yun Lintian's companions watched in awe-struck silence. The battle, if one could even call it that, had been a merciless display of power. The power Yun Lintian unleashed was beyond their comprehension. It made them realize the gap between them and him.

"No!" Captain Bloodfang, his once arrogant voice now filled with abject terror, attempted to steer his crippled flagship away from the destructive wave. But it was too late. The azure energy engulfed the vessel, devouring it whole. A brief, agonizing scream pierced the void, then silence.

The relentless wave continued its march, scouring a vast swathe of space before finally dissipating. Only an empty expanse devoid of life or debris remained where the once-

proud pirate fleet hovered.

Only the wreckage of the Fleeting Cloud Skyship's defensive barrier, shimmering faintly in the aftermath, hinted at the battle that had transpired mere moments ago.

Yun Lintian lowered his hand, his expression calm and serene. Captain Bloodfang, clearly at the peak level of the Middle God Realm, couldn't even put up any resistance against the Great Law of Death.

Since breaching the Lower God Realm, Yun Lintian could no longer measure his own strength. The power of the Great Law had become significantly stronger, as had his control over divine bloodlines and the elements.

He was certain he could now fight any practitioner in the God Ascension Realm with no problem.

"This is too powerful," Han Bingling exclaimed in amazement.

"The power of the Great Law reigns supreme indeed," Yun Meilan said calmly. She had recently read about the Great Law in ancient records. It explained the unparalleled strength of the God of Death, the God of Time, and the God of Life.

"Learning it would be incredible," Yun Huanxin said with envy.

Yun Meilan looked at her and said, "There's the Great Law of Time and Space. Perhaps you'll have a chance to comprehend it someday."

"I hope so," Yun Huanxin responded casually.

Yun Lintian turned around, facing everyone, and said, "Sorry. I was too eager to test my strength and totally forgot to check out their identity."

"It doesn't matter." Yun Qianxue said gently. "At least, no one will notice this… Let's go."
