Zhan You's domain, its purpose fulfilled, began to collapse. The blood-soaked earth and crimson sky faded away, replaced by the familiar emptiness of the void.
Yun Lintian stood amidst the wreckage, his chest heaving with exertion. The Heaven Piercing Sword and the elemental swords floated beside him, their blades now dimmed, their energy spent.
He looked at the spot where Zhan You had fallen, a flicker of pity crossing his eyes. Despite being enemies, he couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for the War God, a warrior who had fought with unwavering determination until the very end.
What he couldn't understand was Zhan You's purpose in serving the Primordial God Tribe. There must be a reason for this.
He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath as he allowed the exhaustion to wash over him. The battle had been long and arduous, pushing him to the very limits of his strength and endurance.
