Ultragene Warlord-Chapter 1359: Guicang and Hanguang

"I've heard that more than once by now."

This wasn't the first time he had killed one of Cthaat's children, at any rate.

Cthaat's son, knowing that it wouldn't be able to escape, that Zhang Lie didn't fear a confrontation with Eternal Sun, fought to its death. Lava burst out from underground like a volcanic eruption.

Hanguang appeared in Zhang Lie's hand, slashing apart the lava with a huge swing.

"[Syzygy]!"

A pitch-black sun appeared behind Zhang Lie, and a blood moon by his feet. His aura was magnified tenfold, and a halo of black sun appeared above his forehead. Natural law seemed to warp around him. Runes likewise appeared on the bloody moon by his feet, forming an intricate array.

Struck by the bloody moonlight, the lava's radiance grew dim. Under the black sun, the fluctuations in Zhang Lie's genetic energy were enhanced.

Cthaat's son roared, "What have you done to me?!"

Zhang Lie crossed his twin blades. The blood moon resonated with the blade in his left hand, and the black sun with the blade in his right.

The black sun's flames strengthened Zhang Lie's attacks and burned away Li Feng's. As the realms of reality and illusion inverted, Zhang Lie simultaneously slashed forward with both blades, forming a huge celestial web.

The web wrapped around the lava, causing the ground to split and scar. The lava turned into rubble.

"[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.

White steam rose up from the ground as the lava was quenched to form volcanic rock, which shattered.

Cthaat's son had finally been killed! The hunters within the gathering point cheered as Zhang Lie landed on the ground. The members of Team Zenith rushed over, their faces full of smiles.

Yang Ze exaggerated, "Captain, perfect timing! If you'd been just one step slower, all of us would have died!"

Zhang Lie scoffed. "Nonsense! The fact that you were almost crushed—it looks like you didn't work as hard as you claimed to in the third realm, it seems."

The members of Team Zenith laughed with some embarrassment.

"No, Captain! The enemies in the fourth realm are simply too strong. We haven't finished acquiring our gene fragments yet, and we barely have any disaster-grade ones."

Zhang Lie asked, "How are your genes looking?" fr eewebn ovel.com

"We've maxed out our peak gene fragments and uniformly have twenty disaster gene fragments each."

The members of Team Zenith reported the number of gene fragments they possessed.

While Zhang Lie was dealing with Cthaat's son, they had conveniently dealt with the disaster-grade lifeforms that had arisen from the lava.

"It's acceptable, I suppose."

As the airship landed, Sun Mengmeng asked curiously, "What's that, Captain?"

Yang Ze wondered, "Isn't this an airship...?"

Sun Xiaowu asked, "Isn't it the case that technology can't be brought into the dimensional world?"

Fang Yi asked, "How could there be airships in the fourth realm?"

Zhou Ying wondered, "Could there be a rule of the dimensional world that we don't know about yet?"

Li Feng asked, "This isn't alien technology, is it?"

Sun Mengmeng: "I saw you come alongside the airship, Captain. Does it belong to you?"

Sun Xiaowu cried out, "That explains everything, then!"

Yang Ze agreed. "If it's our captain, then everything makes sense."

Fang Yi said what they were all thinking. "Our captain makes the impossible possible."

Zhang Lie sighed and shook his head. "This airship's appearance is an exception. To be honest, I haven't studied the details, either. As far as I'm aware, the airship uses technology from beyond the Milky Way, and the dimensional world only rejects Milky Way technology, not technology elsewhere."

Sun Mengmeng gasped. "So those scientists really were right?"

Sun Xiaowu murmured, "There's life outside the Milky Way..."

Yang Ze glanced at him in a strange manner. "Isn't that obvious?"

Li Feng nodded. "Don't forget where we are now."

Zhou Ying asked, "Does that mean that the dimensional world counts as being beyond the Milky Way?"

Zhang Lie shook his head with a laugh. "I can't answer these questions yet, but I'll try to work toward the truth with all of you."

Sun Mengmeng asked, "Is this related to the location you're bringing us to, Captain?"

"That's right."

"What kind of place is it?"

Zhang Lie replied, "A trial, as well as a competition."

The airship landed, and Li Qianlin stepped out. She spread out her arms with a smile. "Mengmeng, Ying!"

"Qianlin!"

Sun Mengmeng and Zhou Ying immediately took her hand.

"Is this the king of Limit?"

Just then, a hunter stepped forward from the gathering point. Yang Ze immediately introduced him. "This is the leader of this gathering point."

The leader took Zhang Lie's hand and gave him a firm handshake. "It's an honor to meet you! I truly am blessed to be able to encounter you here."

Zhang Lie smiled awkwardly as he replied, "Thank you."

The leader realized that he had been too excited, to the point of making Zhang Lie uncomfortable. "I apologize. I simply couldn't control my emotions after seeing my hero in the flesh."

Zhang Lie waved a hand. "No matter. I don't much mind."

The leader continued, "I truly have to thank you for your assistance. Without you here, our gathering point would have been destroyed. I hope you'll stay for a while here as a guest. We'll host you lavishly."

Zhang Lie shook his head with a smile. "Thank you for your generosity, but we can't stay. We have tasks to do."

The leader continued, "No, surely not! You're the savior of this gathering point, and I insist that we show you our gratitude!"

"I'm afraid we have something urgent on our plates. We'll have to take off now." Zhang Lie quickly fled into the airship. The members of Team Zenith bade their farewells, then followed suit.

The hunters were very curious about the interior of the airship, and they wandered around poking and prodding at everything they could see.

Zhang Lie commanded the airship, "Set off toward the trial grounds."

Sun Mengmeng asked, "Are you in a rush, Captain?"

Zhang Lie shook his head. "Not quite. There's about one or two months before our deadline, but I'd rather head there sooner. I don't know how long you all would take to finish the trials."

Yang Ze asked curiously, "If we have the time, why not stay longer at this gathering point?"

Zhang Lie replied, "I feel as though there's something strange about how the leader of this gathering point looks at me..."

Yang Ze replied, "He simply reveres you, that's all. Once he realized that we were members of Team Zenith, he treated us very warmly."

Sun Xiaowu cried out, "Rather than that, show us around this airship, Captain!" freewe(b)novel

"Of course."
