Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1425: Like Abhors Like

Yang Ze gnashed his teeth. "That's nonsense! He's much less cool than I am. He's sly and his techniques and tactics are petty and full of tricks."

Li Feng laughed. "Like abhors like."

Everyone laughed as well.

The members of Team Zenith were all relieved that Fang Yi had realized the truth of the situation and resolved the danger.

"I knew you couldn't be as strong as all that."

Fang Yi clutched his spear tightly as space reverberated around him. Wind and storm surrounded him.

If Xing Yu really were strong enough to ascend to a different dimension and control Fang Yi from that vantage point, he wouldn't have been injured in the first place. After all, Xing Yu would have been a higher-dimensional being that could hardly have taken damage from a lower-dimensional one even if a projection of him were in the same dimension.

A firefly wouldn't be able to do any damage to the moon even if it were to fall to earth; at best, it would be able to bite down on some lunar soil.

If Xing Yu really possessed control of a higher dimension, he wouldn't have to play these sorts of games with Fang Yi and strip him of his senses one by one before peeling away his soul. He could simply have torn the canvas apart and Fang Yi along with it.

After realizing what was happening, the rest was easy.

Magic against magic, fist against fist—and space against space.

"[Heaven's Judgment: Four Sages' Roar]!"

Fang Yi's spear took on the aspect of a dragon of the winds and a storm tiger as he charged forward. Wind and storm combined and crackled at the tip of Fang Yi's spear.

The combination of wind and lightning generated a frightening force that seemed to be able to penetrate space. Chaotic and spatial energy joined in the mix—a miniaturized version of his signature fivefold strike, at least at the level of a fourfold strike.

A black turtle and divine bird rushed out of the mix of chaotic energy, spatial rifts, wind, and storm.

The wind resolved into a stormwind dragon. Spatial force transformed into a qilin, with the void as its claws and lightning as its whiskers.

The lightning transformed into a white tiger wreathed with howling winds, spatial force forming its sharp claws and chaotic energy condensing into its eyes.

Spatial force manifested in the form of a divine bird, space its feathers, the storm its body, lightning its beak, and chaotic energy seeping from its feathers like burning flames.

The chaotic energy transformed into a black turtle, spatial force into its shell, lightning into its legs, and the stormy wind its head.

The four mythical beasts formed from the combination of the fourfold energies shot out as Fang Yi thrust his spear forward. The disparate energies corkscrewed together, simultaneously melded and distinct, as they shot toward the heavens.

They exploded simultaneously, raining down destruction onto Fang Yi's opponent.

Xing Yu coughed out blood in shock. His opponent had sensed the secret of his technique, broken out of the cage, and survived his most lethal combination.

His wounded body shook as blood stained his clothes.

The spatial cage broke and restored Fang Yi's senses to himself, light and sound and soul.

"To think you would have seen through it!" Xing Yu wiped away the blood by his lips. His muscular body glowed with light as strength radiated from him.

Fang Yi sighed. "Knowing too much can be a hazard at times."

He had been misled by his knowledge from the Milky Way.

"To be frank, your techniques aren't all that amazing. I have a companion who's more cunning than you are."

If Fang Yi hadn't known about higher-dimensional space and been misled, he would have discovered the truth sooner.

"This is the spatial cage that I invented. I could trap you within it for eternity. Since you've already entered it, I'm not going to let you out!" Xing Yu thundered.

The crowds were nowhere to be seen; this was a pocket space isolated from the outside world.

The outside world could see inside, but the internal world couldn't see outside.

Xing Yu shot into the sky and looked down at Fang Yi from the heavens. "I am the lord of this domain, and you a lowly prisoner. This is my world!"

Fang Yi remained calm. "Then let me show you how I'll defeat you from within this world."

Rather than tear apart the pocket space, Fang Yi readied himself for a fight.

"[Trappings of Void]!" Xing Yu shouted, unleashing his signature set of techniques to restrain Fang Yi.

"[Wheel of Time]!"

Fang Yi's spear took on the aspects of time and age. Temporal winds buffeted the spear, and a mysterious light began to circle the spear like lightning.

A wheel of light appeared behind Fang Yi, taking on the form of a bell. The tolling of a bell reverberated through the pocket dimension.

"[Winds of Aeon]!"

Fang Yi invoked the power of time, which revolved around his spear. Spatial force mixed with it, extending toward Fang Yi's hand and spreading throughout his body, augmenting it. The wheels of time to his back revolved around his body. Lightning flashed and wind howled.

Fang Yi's body distorted and split into two, as though he had been isolated from spacetime.

"Hmm?" Xing Yu was shocked to see that his spatial control was ineffective.

Fang Yi snickered. "As I said, your techniques are meaningless now that I've seen through them."

Xing Yu was like a disaster-grade lifeform that had conjured a domain out of spatial force, within which he had the power of a higher-dimensional being that could manipulate those within the domain.

However, all this was an illusion.

After all, Xing Yu wasn't such a being and had no means of effecting direct control over his captives.

As a result, breaking free was straightforward. Counter space with space and domain with domain.

Fang Yi formed a domain with his wheels of time as basis.

By combining the powers of space and time to form a spacetime domain, he was able to free himself from the standard flow of spacetime. He called on forces more fundamental than those of Xing Yu; Xing Yu's domain could affect him no longer.

What's more, Fang Yi had isolated himself from the standard flow of spacetime and could be affected by no other domains.

"I'll kill you!" Xing Yu shouted, enraged after Fang Yi had disparaged his techniques.
