Ultragene Warlord

However, the vortex formed by the black and blood dragons boasted tremendous suction, and Zhou Ying was unable to escape.

The wood dragons that were slowly regenerating thanks to the vitality and natural energy emitting from Zhou Ying were likewise sucked into the vortex and obliterated.

The vortex struck the barrier isolating the pocket dimension from the rest of the third realm, causing the entire pocket world to tremble and shake. The barriers cracked as Zhou Ying found herself plastered to it. Vitality and genetic energy surged, causing her wounds to heal at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Zhou Ying\'s feelers extended out and removed her from the barrier.

"[Second Form: Piercing the Soul]!"

Zhang Lie\'s disaster-grade mistmeld clam soulshard activated as he infused its energy into his swords, causing them to shine radiantly with multicolored light.

To Zhang Lie\'s dragon\'s pupils, Zhou Ying\'s soul was a massive tree that reached for the sky, like a world tree in its majesty and stature. It had golden leaves, and gray fog gathered by its roots.

A rainbow arc accompanied Zhang Lie\'s slash, as though an aurora borealis were visible in the sky. It shone in all the colors of the rainbow, momentarily hypnotizing anyone who looked at it.

Zhou Ying was instantly dazed.

Zhang Lie\'s sword shone as brightly as the northern lights overhead, bringing him momentarily out of the physical into the intangible.

Just as it was about to land, Zhou Ying suddenly smiled.

Her two feelers began to move, slashing forward with void cuts from two golden daggers and defending against Zhang Lie\'s auroreal blow. Spiritual energy gusted forth in a wave. As it struck Zhou Ying, her eyes rolled back, and the golden leaves she controlled shot forward. With his other hand, Zhang Lie scattered the leaves with Hanguang.

Zhou Ying recovered from the spiritual attack quickly.

With her hands and feelers, she continued launching void cuts at Zhang Lie, who defended with Guicang. Genetic energy surfed from Zhou Ying\'s feet, a combination of vitality and natural energy, and infused it deep into the soil. all around her, wood dragons came to life.

Zhang Lie cut apart the dragons as they emerged, but at the same time, two more feelers grew out from behind Zhou Ying\'s back and attacked him. Zhang Lie defended with Guicang, slicing off both feelers.

"Did you intuit something?" Zhang Lie asked.

"This battle isn\'t over yet!" Zhou Ying cried out. Her hair stood on end and golden leaves surrounded her like a storm, swallowing Zhang Lie up. The leaves then exploded in golden light, each one like a miniature sun.

Zhou Ying emerged from the storm unscathed. The feelers that Guicang had chopped off were now regrown.

Zhou Ying\'s body trembled as she sensed an incomparable strength. She glanced back at the golden storm of leaves.

Red light flashed out from amidst the gold. Zhang Lie, armored in red dragon scales and with a dragon\'s horns jutting out of his forehead, walked out.

"[Ninecarp Transformation]!"

Red scales formed a natural suit of red armor around Zhang Lie. He was surrounded by what looked like scarlet flames, but was actually steaming, blood-red water-attuned genetic energy. A black sun rose behind his back, and a blood moon shone at his feet.

The golden leaves were burnt to a crisp by the blood-red genetic energy, but their golden explosions were completely blocked. A long tail grew out of his back. His black hair took on a red tint, as though they were lit up by an inner fire. Interlocking rings of black and red that warped natural law surrounded his body. Red genetic energy rose into the air and dyed the skies crimson. Cracks appeared on the barriers that Zhu had painstakingly set up once more.

The ground beneath his feet melted into lava, and the air turned scorching hot. After absorbing the golden mulberry tree, Zhou Ying\'s wood dragons boasted extremely strong resistance to fire. Even so, the wood dragons all around Zhang Lie were lit aflame, and the ones by his feet were burned all the way to their roots.

"To think you still had two feelers hidden..."

Zhang Lie walked out from amidst the storm of golden leaves, all but completely immune to the explosions of golden light.

With Zhang Lie before her, Zhou Ying couldn\'t help but feel a sense of overpowering weakness.

Zhang Lie asked, "Do you have any other feelers?"

Zhou Ying shook her head. "I only have four at the moment."

"In other words, you\'ll become a tentacle monster in the future?"

Zhou Ying frowned. "Of course I won\'t!"

"Did you intuit something, incidentally?"

"I don\'t plan on admitting defeat just yet."

Zhou Ying erupted in a burst of vitality and natural energy, turning into what seemed like a green crystal. Golden radiance shone where her head would be, and gray fog surrounded her.

"[Avatar of the Fae: Galaxybound Enclosure]!"

A titanic burst of vitality and natural energy erupted from her, turning Zhou Ying into a facsimile of a goddess of nature, the princess of the forests. Huge wood dragons emerged from underground, each about the size of a small plaza.

They were humongous and present in staggering numbers, filling the pocket world like a golden tide.

The members of Team Zenith hurriedly layered their shields to prevent themselves from being affected.

Hong Xi\'s pale blue moonlight shone down on them all, increasing everyone\'s strength.

"[Blinding Flash: Thousandfold Echo]!"

Sun Xiaowu\'s body split into over a thousand clones, so many they seemed to fill the sky.

"[Golden Divide]!"

The thousand clones all used [Golden Divide] simultaneously, coloring the sky in gold and raining down golden feathers in such numbers that it seemed as though a thunderstorm had just formed out of thin air. The surrounding wood dragons were knocked back.

As Zhou Ying continuously injected vitality and natural energy into the pocket world, however, even more wood dragons grew to take their place. They were on the verge of smashing apart Zhu\'s barriers.

Fang Yi punched forward, his wind dragon and storm tiger clearing out a large swathe of dragons.

Li Feng radiated silver light, and illusory silver dragons coiled around the members of Team Zenith, dealing with their natural brethren.

The wood dragons were present in staggering numbers. No one expected that Zhou Ying would be able to bring so much vitality and natural energy to bear. Boosted by her energy, the wood dragons replenished their numbers more quickly than the members of Team Zenith could take them down.

Refracted light shone around Yang Ze, who waved a hand and isolated the members of Team Zenith from the pocket dimension.

As more and more wood dragons continued to appear and the pocket dimension seemed fit to burst, Zhang Hanxiang released a chilly frost, adding a layer of ice as a barrier against Zhou Ying\'s attack.

With a casual wave of his sword infused with fiery-red water-attuned genetic energy, Zhang Lie himself cut apart a huge swathe of wood dragons. The energy was scorching hot, and the dragons, which were able to absorb even ordinary flame, were lit up on fire by his energy...
