Chapter 1190: Yang Ze's Return
It was bad enough for the king of chaos to ascend with one or two companions in tow, but he was doing so with dozens of people! Even the fragmented will of the world would grow furious at such flagrant violation of the rules.
The king of chaos, however, was immensely strong. An eruption of chaotic energy swallowed up the lightning and smashed the cage apart. Radiant light rained down from the heavens, crackling with charged energy.
The king of chaos broke through the enclosure with brute force and smashed into the firmament between the third and fourth realms.
The fourth realm visibly shook, and the barrier began to crack.
The fourth realm launched a retaliatory attack at the king of chaos. The will of the fourth realm was far stronger than that of the third, and even the king of chaos seemed to barely be able to weather the assault.
The chaotic energy that surrounded the halls of chaos stretched almost to the breaking point. Just then, the doors to the hall were thrown open, and the All-Mother, Star Devourer, Null Source, and other such entities swarmed out to help the king of chaos defend against the attack. The king of chaos struck at full force, smashing a hole in the firmament.
The will of the fourth realm roared as it made to strike at the halls of chaos, but the king of chaos was so strong that he could defend against the will's retaliation and steer the halls of chaos through the crack and beyond.
The will of the fourth realm quaked, but it was incapable of expelling the intruder. In the end, it went silent and slowly began to repair the damage that the king of chaos had caused.
The will of the third realm was doing the same.
As Zhang Lie glanced at the damaged sky, he sighed. "The king of chaos succeeded. He created a miracle."
After the world of primordial chaos in the eighteenth layer of space, only a pile of ruins remained. It would be difficult for the shattered will of the third realm to clean up the area; even after a millennium, the ruins might remain.
There was nothing valuable left behind.
Li Feng asked, "Have we forgotten something?"
Sun Xiaowu shrugged. "The fact that we forgot about them must mean that they're unimportant. We don't have to pay them any attention."
Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind Sun Xiaowu's body, bypassed multiple layers of space, and rapped on Sun Xiaowu's head.
Sun Xiaowu turned around. "Who hit me? Stand forward if you dare!"
"What do you mean, unimportant? Given what just happened, if not for the fact that my spatial control improved so much, I would have been sucked into the mess!" Yang Ze teleported through space to appear right behind Sun Xiaowu.
Sun Xiaowu jumped up in shock. "Yang Ze, what happened to you? You suddenly appeared behind my back like a ghost!"
Yang Ze glared evilly at Sun Xiaowu. "If I were to become a ghost, you'd be the first person I haunt."
Zhang Lie looked Yang Ze up and down.
Yang Ze's short stint in the 24th layer of space had clearly been very rewarding. Spatial force surrounded him, bending all light in the vicinity in a subtle fashion. Without careful observation and some mastery of space, it would be difficult to sense just how much Yang Ze had improved.
"Not bad, Yang Ze," Zhang Lie praised.
Yang Ze smiled with some embarrassment. "I did gain some improvement."
Sun Mengmeng asked curiously, "What's the deepest layer of space like?"
Yang Ze shrugged. "It's not too different from it is here. It's a location filled with spatial force, though that force is sluggish and difficult to utilize. It's a fascinating place, and cultivating spatial manipulation there is like training in a space with a hundred times the gravity. Upon returning to ordinary space, I feel like my understanding of space has developed dramatically."
"Let's go, then."
Zhang Lie turned and began to fly off. The explosion that the world of primordial chaos had caused destroyed five layers of space along with it, leaving a big hole where the world had once stood. The members of Team Zenith flew to the thirteenth layer.
As Yang Ze left, he grumbled, "However, I was almost unable to get out. One of the king of chaos' clones suddenly popped out and teleported me away before the space exploded. I was wondering what was going on, and almost ended up being swept away as well."
Zhang Lie clenched his fists tightly. Pale blue genetic energy rippled about Zhang Lie's arms. He flicked his wrists, causing a frightening aura to descend around them. A fish the size of a whale materialized in the air.
Upon noticing Zhang Lie's actions, Yang Ze went still.
"What are you doing, Captain?"
"Forging a path home."
A howling gale swept over the world. As more and more genetic energy gathered around Zhang Lie's arms, it looked as though he were at the heart of a whirlpool.
"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!"
A huge wave soared into the air. As Zhang Lie punched forward, the fish slammed its huge tail on the ground and sent a torrent of water surging toward the sky.
Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him. The towering waves looked like enraged black dragons, flooding the hall.
Huge booms resounded as shockwaves surged forth from Zhang Lie, as though a rampaging beast were devouring everything in sight.
Zhang Lie's attack broke a huge hole in the already strained 13th layer of space. Pale blue tides flooded the hole, widening it and sending a storm of shattered fragments of space through the air.
The hunters had made their way over easily thanks to Nightdemon and the Shining Trapezohedron, but now that the king of chaos and his coterie had left for the fourth realm, Zhang Lie and the others would have to return to the base layer by brute force.
Yang Ze grumbled, "Captain, there's no need for all this! I can handle it."
Zhang Lie seemed somewhat suspicious. "Can you?"
Yang Ze replied, "Not before I entered the 24th layer of space and trained there, but my understanding of space is incomparable to that from before. I can guide everyone back to the base layer of the third realm."
In truth, despite his momentary stint in the 24th layer of space, Yang Ze wouldn't have been able to accomplish such a feat in general, but thanks to the explosion of the world of primordial chaos, the natural structure of space had grown distorted and weakened, and Yang Ze would barely be able to succeed.
Zhang Lie extended a hand. "Very well."
Yang Ze stepped forward, a serious expression on his face. He couldn't falter now; he needed to demonstrate his strength in front of Zhang Lie.
