Chapter 941: A Shocking Sight
Placed side by side, the four different cocoons were an astounding sight.
Yang Ze's cocoon vibrated more and more strongly. Zhang Lie could sense that Yang Ze had finished absorbing the entire contents of the potion, and was now moving onto the final stage of the transformation.
An ocean surged forth from within the cocoon, sending the sound of rumbling thunder echoing throughout the draconian world. The shards of glass in the black desert began to vibrate in synchrony with the cocoon, cracking as the vibrations reached a crescendo.
The disturbance caused by Yang Ze's cocoon summoned the draconian sage once again, who teleported over and grumbled, "Zhang Lie, what did you do this time?"
Zhang Lie shrugged. "I'm innocent—it's not my fault!"
The draconian sage was perplexed as he looked at the four different cocoons. "What are these?"
The vibrations coming from Yang Ze's cocoon grew stronger and stronger, as though there were a herd of galloping steeds on the horizon.
Zhang Lie explained, "Yang Ze and Fang Yi are absorbing the peak limit-breaking potion. Yang Ze's the one causing this phenomenon."
The draconian sage scowled. "In the end, it's something you caused again!"
Despite the draconian sage's grumbling, he could hardly expel Zhang Lie and the others. If something did happen, Zhang Lie would certainly step up and resolve the issue in order to avoid causing undue stress to the draconian world.
Zhou Ying and Sun Mengmeng glanced at the transformation occurring to Yang Ze in surprise. The crystalline bud that had been formed from his pale blue genetic energy was slowly unfolding.
Zhou Ying asked, "Why didn't I experience such a phenomenon when I absorbed this potion?"
Zhang Lie shrugged. "It's likely a matter of compatibility between the xuluo bones that formed the base of your potion and your framework."
As the crystalline bud flowered in its entirety, forming a crystalline lotus, pale blue genetic energy erupted from the cocoon, spreading out all over in the form of raging waves like galloping steeds, like thundering dragons. The genetic energy was, shockingly, charged with authority over space.
"Zhou Ying, your framework is about life and vitality; Sun Mengmeng, yours about fire. Although Yang Ze's framework is nominally about water, his understanding, intuition, and mastery over space is beyond anyone else's in the team. After absorbing karmic power, he's likely reached a more complete understanding of space."
Zhang Lie stood firm amidst the expanding ocean, like a landmass that would weather wind and storm.
The rampaging energy cracked Yang Ze's cocoon. As Zhang Lie had mentioned, Yang Ze was surrounded by swirling spatial force.
As his pale blue genetic energy surged, space itself began to resonate and vibrate. The shards of black glass beneath them cracked and splintered, but the vibrations wouldn't affect Zhang Lie and the others.
All the hunters present had reached a minimum threshold of strength, and it would be ridiculous for any of them to be unable to withstand the aftereffects of Yang Ze's evolution.
The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide.
Zhang Lie and the members of Team Zenith might not be affected by this phenomenon, but they couldn't say the same about the other inhabitants of the world. If the sea were allowed to spread any further, it might cause significant trouble.
The draconian sage made a move immediately, invoking the authority of the realm to lock down the surrounding area.
As the genetic energy frothed more and more violently, even Sun Mengmeng and Zhou Ying were starting to grow unsteady. The barrier that the draconian sage had set up began to crack.
Yang Ze's figure appeared at the heart of the disturbance, surrounded by blooming lotuses all around him. It was a scene of surprising tranquility and elegance. Ripples of light crept up and down his body, giving him an otherworldly appearance. He suddenly opened his eyes, which gleamed with black and gold. The rampaging ocean turned glassy within moments, all disturbance quelled.
Yang Ze turned to Zhang Lie and the others, smiling gently.
"It looks like you've gained quite a bit," Zhang Lie commented.
Yang Ze dipped his head. "More or less."
The draconian sage grumbled again, "All of you might be happy, but look at what I have to deal with! The barrier almost broke!"
Just then, Sun Xiaowu's cocoon began to ripple as well. Piercing golden light emerged from the cocoon, lighting up the entirety of the black desert. All the inhabitants of the world could sense the golden light that came from afar. As golden runes revolved around the cocoon, a pair of golden arms broke it open from the inside. A giant in radiant gold emerged.
Sun Xiaowu's transformation was much like Sun Mengmeng and Zhou Ying's; it wasn't as outlandish as Yang Ze's. The golden giant glowed brightly once more, then faded away, leaving Sun Xiaowu's regular body behind. The difference was that he now had a corona of gold all around him.
Following Sun Xiaowu, Li Feng broke out of his cocoon. He caused a much larger disturbance. As the cocoon broke, the howls of a thousand dragons echoed through the air.
Dragons of light, so many they couldn't be counted, rushed out of the cocoon and filled the sky. Subsequently, all at once, they swooped down toward Li Feng's cocoon, breaking it apart in a wave of overwhelming white light. Gold and black flashed by their eyes, so bright they had to avert the sight.
The draconian sage breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Sun Xiaowu and Li Feng hadn't caused as much of a problem as did Yang Ze. Otherwise, they would have caused a tremendous headache for the draconian sage.
Just as Li Feng's transformation finished, Fang Yi's cocoon finally began to move.
Zhang Lie watched on expectantly. Fang Yi's cocoon was the most unique among the four present, and he expected it to produce the largest disturbance of all.
Fang Yi's cocoon was threaded with gold and black, gray and silver—the combination of karmic and temporal power. As the loops of time surrounding the cocoon broke, the density of temporal energy surrounding the cocoon increased dramatically, tearing a slit in the cocoon. Wind and storm rushed out, summoning gale winds and lightning.
As the slit widened, a dragon of wind and a tiger of lightning emerged. The howling gales grew stronger, and lightning forked indiscriminately.
A pillar of lightning struck the cocoon as time froze. The surroundings all turned a dull gray; the cocoon was the only source of color. Bolstered by the power of the natural elements, Fang Yi finished the last step in his transformation.
In the gray world of frozen time, Zhang Lie's eyebrow twitched. The gray flaked off him; he had used his overwhelming strength to free himself from his temporal constraints. He was very surprised that Fang Yi had managed to disrupt the flow of time to this extent by consuming the peak limit-breaking potion...
