Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1089: Like a God

A strong wind buffeted the battlefield. Blood-colored frost appeared around the combatants, as though a mysterious realm of hell had intersected the third realm.

As though the doors to hell had just been thrown open, tens of thousands of serpents rushed out in a flood as Zhang Lie swung Guicang at the king of black fog.

The king of black fog condensed that fog into two huge palms, which pushed forward and caused all the serpents in their way to explode. However, the serpents came in an endless torrent. Neither side let up.

"[The Boundless Blade: the River Lethe]!" Zhang Lie lifted the blade in his hand high above his head as pitch-black energy exploded from him. He looked like a demon descending on the world.

Black genetic energy filled the battlefield, vast and concentrated.

Zhang Lie's genetic energy roared as it took the form of a vast, angry sea. Waves surged forward, sounding like peals of thunder, like stampeding hooves. The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide. The entire sea roiled, and lightning crackled amidst the void.

Countless serpents swam across the raging sea as lightning flashed ominously overhead, a scene right out of an apocalypse. As Zhang Lie swung his sword, the roaring waves all morphed into black dragons.

.

The sea had morphed into a boundless battlefield. The sea breeze was as a horn to action, and the serpents, thousands of courageous soldiers heeding its call.

Meanwhile, the king of black fog unleashed a tsunami of black smoke.

The netherworld sea clashed against the black smoke. The black serpents in the air exploded and reverted to black genetic energy, but before they could reform as serpents, they were swallowed up by the black fog. The black fog was able to get rid of the serpents once and for all, but at great cost.

After a few confrontations, the huge wave of black fog was no more than a tenth of its original size. It had been five times the size of an ordinary superior world—and now it was only about as large as a peak large world.

The king of black fog was getting a bit terrified. "Zhang Lie, there's no reason we have to fight to our deaths. Why don't we sit down and have a talk instead? All I want is the superior world's energy that the Zongming king possesses. As long as you're willing to hand it over, I'll turn on the solar king and ice queen!"

"There's no need for you to worry about them. I've already dispatched forces against both."

The king of black fog clearly doubted Zhang Lie's words. "Even if you were to kill me, the Zongming world will be destroyed. Just who could you have sent over? None of the superior kings of antiquity are weak, and the solar king and ice queen are stronger than your ordinary superior king, let alone in their own worlds."

From the perspective of the king of black fog, Zhang Lie had no true understanding of the solar king and ice queen's strength. In other words, he was being overly arrogant and self-centered.

"I don't know where you found your helpers, but they won't be so easily dealt with. No superior king of antiquity is weak. The solar king and ice queen are very intelligent. They tend to turtle up in their own worlds, bolstered by their authority as superior kings, in addition to their personal strength. They're essentially invincible in their territory. All your helpers will be killed to the last. If you want to protect the Zongming world, you only have one option open to you: working with me."

Zhang Lie ignored the king of black fog's words. The blood dragon's phantasmal figure soared into the air. Zhang Lie thrust forward with Guicang, the gleam of the blade so bright that the void seemed to welcome a new dawn. The blood dragon melted into the blade.

The king of black fog became more and more anxious when he saw that Zhang Lie was unmoved.

"Zhang Lie, don't misunderstand! This is your last opportunity."

Zhang Lie asked, "Aren't you also a superior king of antiquity? You have a seat at the meeting table, you're in your superior world—and yet you still can't beat me."

"Zhang Lie, do you really think I can't beat you?" the king of black fog roared. The black fog erupted in a storm.

"Let's try it, then!" A dragon's howl echoed through the air as Zhang Lie swung his sword infused with the blood dragon's strength. "[The Boundless Blade: Dragon's Wrath]!"

Zhang Lie thrust forward with Guicang, summoning a blood dragon. The blood dragon's howl shook the void. Zhang Lie's sword tore apart the storm of black fog, piercing through it.

The king of black fog's humanoid face turned into that of a dragon as he opened his mouth wide and devoured the attack.

Zhang Lie's sword pierced through the fog. His attack exploded in the heart of the world of black fog. "[First Form: Parting the River]!"

A frightening force descended on the king of black fog, energy rumbling and rippling around him. As Zhang Lie swung the blade in his hand, a huge slash of sword energy shot toward the king of black fog.

Fog roiled, morphing into countless hands and feet—but they were all cut apart by the pale-white sword energy.

The sword energy cut deep into the world of black fog, leaving a huge abyssal trench within.

Zhang Lie's [First Form: Parting the River] shouldn't have been so destructive, but the king of black fog had expended too much black fog in the fighting so far, and he felt death drawing near. He, who claimed to be impossible to kill, was stricken by the possibility of imminent death.

His eponymous black fog had been almost entirely used up, and he wouldn't be able to defend against another overwhelming attack from Zhang Lie. The king of black fog had no intention of dying so easily. He retaliated, putting his life on the line. The black fog manifested in the form of long spears, which rained down on Zhang Lie like a thunderstorm.

"[Shadow and Light]!" Time suddenly sped up in the vicinity of Zhang Lie, and he left a series of afterimages in his wake.

With Guicang, he smashed apart all the spears of black fog. The king of black fog noticed that his attacks had weakened significantly, but even so, the king of black fog didn't give up. Countless claws emerged from his body and mixed with the fog, even as Zhang Lie drew his other blade.

Hanguang flashed, and the claws were all shredded to pieces.

"[Syzygy]!" A burning black sun rose behind Zhang Lie's back, and a bloody moon flared into existence at his feet. His aura was magnified tenfold, and a halo of black sun appeared above his forehead. Natural law seemed to warp around him.

Runes likewise appeared on the bloody moon by his feet, forming an intricate array. Under the combination of the two auras, Zhang Lie seemed to have transformed into a god...
