Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 857: A Massive Fight

Luohou spun faster and faster, turning himself into a hurricane. He imbued his surroundings with solar flame and lunar moonlight, causing the hurricane to spin toward Zhang Lie like a celestial drill—forcing Zhang Lie back and deterring him from his attacks.

"[Blade of the Heavens: the Sea Swells]!" Energy poured out of Zhang Lie in waves, honing the edge of his blade. The pulses of energy struck the sea like a tsunami, devouring everything within.

The stronger attack enveloped Luohou in an instant. Luohou\'s heaven\'s might was immensely strong, but Zhang Lie\'s [Blade of the Heavens: the Sea Swells] was on a different level entirely. Luohou\'s blades were crushed into powder by the force of the waves that Zhang Lie summoned, and Luohou himself spat out mouthfuls of blood from the impact.

He howled and transformed himself into a blade, infusing his own body with the ability to penetrate anything. With the threat of death hanging over his head, Luohou unlocked his true potential.

He burned more fiercely than his shattered solar sword, because his fuel was his own lifeforce. He had a keener edge than his shattered solar sword, because looking death in the eye had triggered the full power of heaven\'s might.

In that one instant, Luohou only had one thought on his mind: to become a blade so sharp that he could even pierce Zhang Lie.

Tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years of experience...

When Luohou traded all that for a single-minded vision, even an ancient superior king would avoid this attack—but not his opponent, because his opponent was Zhang Lie!

"[Blades, Reverberate]!" A blood dragon materialized around Zhang Lie. Energy poured out of him in waves, honing the edge of his blade. The pulses of energy struck the realm like a tsunami, devouring everything within.

The twin blades Guicang and Hanguang emitted a fearsome aura, shining as brightly as the sun and moon. Sword energy materialized from Zhang Lie\'s blades into a blood dragon that revolved around his body. Hanguang\'s light coalesced into a black dragon that likewise curled up around him.

The blade Hanguang morphed into a black dragon, and the blade Guicang into a blood dragon. The two dragons, coiling together as one, shot out toward Luohou like a hurricane, carrying the waves of Zhang Lie\'s spiritual sea with them.

The strength of Zhang Lie\'s blades tore Luohou apart in an instant.

Luohou\'s death caused the remaining xuluo to panic.

Just who was this monster? How could a newly evolved superior world have a man like this, someone who could kill two great lords of the xuluo one after another? There were only a handful of such people even in established worlds!

For instance, the former commander-in-chief of the xuluo army, Fuzhang, was considered the strongest xuluo after the king himself for surviving a single blow from the king of the death spirits. Even Fuzhang couldn\'t claim to defeat two great xuluo lords simultaneously—and Fuzhang was one of the four great lords, with even the enhanced version of heaven\'s might!

Even so, these great lords that had once seemed invincible to the xuluo had been killed by a man who came from a newly evolved world, who wasn\'t even the king of the realm.

Just who was this man?

The xuluo had invaded countless newly evolved worlds and were veterans of all sorts of battles. This was the first time they had lost so severely, and the first time they had seen an existence who wasn\'t the king of the realm but was stronger than one.

They had encountered aliens from the Milky Way before, but they weren\'t particularly familiar with them. After all, most lifeforms from the Milky Way didn\'t know much about superior worlds, considering they were so weak. Even the premier warlords of the third realm wouldn\'t be able to handle a few blows from a xuluo lord.

Most of them were passersby who left the moment they collected enough superior gene fragments, without staying and partaking in the endless warfare among the three thousand worlds.

Before the knowledge of disaster gene fragments spread widely across the Milky Way, the hunters of the Milky Way had been uniformly rather weak.

Zhang Lie\'s appearance heralded the start of a new period, a renaissance for the hunters of the Milky Way. All the superior worlds would soon remember the name of one race in particular: the humans.

Though the xuluo were frightened by Zhang Lie\'s martial prowess, that didn\'t mean they had lost their wits completely. If nothing else, they were experienced fighters after so many invasions. Although their current situation was dire, they understood what they had to do.

"Don\'t be frightened. We still have one surviving xuluo lord. This fellow must have exhausted all his resources to kill the first two—Lord Qiantuo is almost finished with his battle against the king of the realm. Subsequently, while he handles this man, we\'ll charge into the superior world and claim it for ourselves!"

The xuluo knew that, as long as they could invade the Zongming world, they would be able to use it as a bargaining chip.

The five-colored dragon and Li Zongming\'s sunbird were guarding the Zongming world from the xuluo, but there were only two of them and far too many xuluo to count.

Though they were disaster-grade lifeforms, and strong ones at that, their defensive abilities were limited. There were a small group of xuluo that made it past the two lifeforms and into the Zongming world, but Zhang Lie didn\'t have the time to deal with them now.

After successfully killing Luohou, Zhang Lie rushed to Red Comet\'s side and checked on its wounds. It was badly wounded, but not in critical condition.

Indeed, after that grueling battle, Red Comet\'s body was starting to fill with energy once again—the reward for having survived it being the potential it had unlocked from the experience. Once Red Comet\'s wounds recovered, its strength would likely show marked improvement.

Zhang Lie turned to Li Zongming\'s battlefield.

Li Zongming was in poor shape, with wounds marring his body and blood leaking out of his orifices. If Zhang Lie didn\'t go help him now, this newly minted superior king of the realm would be struck down within moments.

Zhang Lie swung his sword again, summoning a huge black serpent. Water-attuned genetic energy gushed forward like violent waves. The serpent wrapped around Zhang Lie\'s arm and was infused into his next attack.

"[The Boundless Blade: the River Lethe]!" An underworld river materialized in the sky, one so vast the entire world could see it. Everything turned cold. The xuluo breathed out puffs of white air as a strong wind buffeted the battlefield. Blood-colored frost appeared around them all.

As though the doors to hell had just been thrown open, tens of thousands of serpents rushed out in a flood. Zhang Lie swung Guicang in an arc, teleporting through space and striking the last great lord of the xuluo...
