A blinding golden light erupted from Yun Lintian's Heaven Piercing Sword as it descended, carrying with it the combined power of the God Marks of Life and Death. The very essence of creation and destruction intertwined, forming a devastating attack that tore through the fabric of reality.
Shun, his eyes widening in alarm, roared in defiance as he channeled his shadow energy, forming a protective barrier around himself. But his efforts were futile. The golden light sliced through his defenses like a hot knife through butter, cleaving his shadowy form in two.
A scream of agony tore through the air as Shun's body was ripped apart, his life force flickering precariously. He stumbled back, his form barely holding together, his aura fluctuating wildly.
