Yun Lintian stood motionless amidst the carnage, his white robes unstained by blood. His mismatched eyes locked onto Kai Xuan with terrifying calm.
"Where is Long Qingxuan?"
Kai Xuan smirked, twirling a silver dagger between his fingers. "Patience, shall we? What if I told you..." His grin widened. "...you could see her right now if you slaughtered every last insect in this realm?"
Yun Lintian's expression didn't change. "I have no ti for Nian Shi's petty sches. If he wants to fight, he should face himself." A cold sneer curled his lips. "Or is the mighty God of Ti a coward?"
Kai Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, but his smile remained. "Tsk. Such insults. And here I thought you cared about your precious Dragon Princess."
With a flick of his wrist, he projected an image into the air—
Long Qingxuan, bound to a jade bed by glowing temporal chains. Her azure draconic scales were dull, her robes torn enough to reveal pale skin beneath. Her breathing was ragged, her eyes closed as if in deep slumber.
Kai Xuan licked his lips. "Such a rare beauty. It would be a sha if..." His voice dropped to a whisper. "...I broadcast this across all realms. Let every man see what belongs to the great Yun Lintian. Let them all have a taste before she—"
"Are you finished?"
Yun Lintian's voice cut through Kai Xuan's threats like a blade.
The First Chaos Knight blinked. Then laughed. "What? No rage? No begging? How disappoint—"
BOOM!
Space itself scread as Yun Lintian unleashed his power.
Kai Xuan's smirk vanished. His body locked up instantly—not frozen in ti, but crushed under a pressure he'd never felt before. His bones creaked. His blood vessels bulged. His silver armor shattered like glass.
"W-What... is this?!"
Yun Lintian stepped forward, his golden and black eyes burning with cold fury. "You talk too much."
With a thought, he ripped the projection apart. The image of Long Qingxuan dissolved into sparks.
Kai Xuan struggled against the invisible force, his face twisting in shock. This wasn't just divine pressure—this was sothing deeper, sothing that bypassed all his temporal defenses.
Yun Lintian raised a hand. "Let show you what real threats look like."
Five-colored light erupted from his palm—Azure Dragon, Divine Phoenix, Golden Crow, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger—all swirling together with gray-black Chaos energy.
Kai Xuan's eyes widened in genuine fear.
"Wait—!"
Yun Lintian clenched his fist.
CRACK!
Every bone in Kai Xuan's body shattered at once. Blood sprayed from his mouth as he collapsed, his form twisting unnaturally.
Yun Lintian lood over him, his voice deathly calm.
"Let ask you again. Where is she?" Yun Lintian uttered coldly.
Kai Xuan coughed up blood, his broken body twitching on the ground. Yet his lips curled into a pained smirk.
"Still... so arrogant..."
Suddenly—
"DEMON!"
"KILL THE INTRUDER!"
Countless cultivators surged forward, their faces twisted with righteous fury. Swords glead, talismans burned—all aid at Yun Lintian.
Kai Xuan laughed through bloody teeth. "Hear that? Even heaven itself condemns you!"
Yun Lintian frowned slightly. He waved his hand—
BOOM!
Space solidified. Every attacking cultivator froze mid-motion, trapped in an invisible forcefield.
He turned back to Kai Xuan. "Last chance. Where is she?"
Kai Xuan's smirk widened. Then—
RIIP!
The world shattered like broken glass.
Yun Lintian blinked—
—and found himself standing back at the mountain of corpses, Kai Xuan floating before him unhard, twirling that sa silver dagger.
"Patience, shall we?" the Chaos Knight repeated, his voice dripping with mockery. "What if I told you..."
A ti loop.
Yun Lintian's golden eyes narrowed. The mont he'd stepped into the Haven, he'd entered Nian Shi's temporal domain. Every action, every victory—aningless.
Kai Xuan chuckled. "Finally understand? This realm belongs to my master. You're just a trapped beast, snarling at shadows."
He leaned closer, his voice a venomous whisper.
"While you waste ti here, my master's forces are attacking the Primal Chaos. Your won—Yun Qianxue, Lin Xinyao, all of them—will be mine to play with soon."
His grin turned savage. "Maybe I'll let you watch."
Silence.
The cultivators below held their breath, awaiting Yun Lintian's rage.
Instead, he laughed.
A cold, quiet sound that made Kai Xuan's smirk falter.
"You're right," Yun Lintian said softly. "This is Nian Shi's domain."
He raised his hand—and the God Slaying Sword materialized, its obsidian edge humming.
"Which ans..."
The blade flashed.
"...I just need to break it."
Kai Xuan barely had ti to widen his eyes before—
BOOOOOOM!
The sword struck not at him, but at the fabric of the Haven itself. The paradise ripped apart like a painted scroll, revealing the golden temporal chains beneath—
—and the millions of souls trapped within them.
Kai Xuan's mocking grin froze as the world around them trembled. The pristine mountains, the rivers of starlight, the golden skies—all of it flickered like a dying illusion.
The mont Yun Lintian's sword struck the fabric of the Haven, the temporal chains binding the realm shuddered violently, their golden glow dimming as cracks spiderwebbed through the false paradise.
"You—!" Kai Xuan's voice was laced with disbelief.
Yun Lintian didn't waste words. His mismatched eyes—one void-black, one erald-green—burned with cold fury as he raised the God Slaying Sword once more. The blade humd with Chaos power, a fusion of Life and Death, the very essence that defied the laws of ti.
"Break."
A single slash.
BOOOOOOM—!
The heavens split.
The earth shattered.
The golden chains binding the Haven shattered like glass, their fragnts dissolving into nothingness. The illusion of paradise crumbled, revealing the true form of the Haven—a desolate void, where millions of souls floated in suspended animation, their life force siphoned into the golden threads of ti.
Kai Xuan, realizing the gravity of the situation, moved.
"You think it's that easy?!" he roared, his silver armor flaring with temporal power.
Space twisted as he blinked behind Yun Lintian, his dagger aid at the back of his neck—a strike laced with ti-erasing venom, capable of unraveling even a Primordial God's existence.
But before the blade could connect—
CLANG!
Yun Lintian didn't even turn. The God Slaying Sword moved on its own, intercepting the strike with inhuman precision. The force of the clash sent shockwaves rippling through the void, distorting the remnants of the Haven.
Kai Xuan's eyes widened. "Impossible—!"
Yun Lintian's voice was ice. "You're slow."
His left hand shot out, grabbing Kai Xuan's throat. The Chaos Knight's temporal defenses shattered instantly under the weight of Primordial Chaos, his body convulsing as Yun Lintian's fingers tightened.
"Where is Qingxuan?"
