The high-temperature steam was so hot that it vaporized much of the blood-colored water-attuned genetic energy. The dark clouds all over the world of black rain began to burn, and the moisture in the air vaporized near-immediately.
The allied forces could feel the steadily increasing heat. Sweat dripped down their backs. Zhang Hanxiang emanated an aura of frost, trying to retain some moisture in the air, before the allied forces fainted from heatstroke.
This domain of scarlet steam was so dangerous that an ordinary lifeform would likely be vaporized without a trace.
The decaying king, who was still nailed to the ground, moaned piteously. He had been able to handle the aftermath of Zhang Lie and the death spirit king's attacks, but what Zhang Lie was doing now was far too frightening.
Even before the attack was released in earnest, the decaying king was already being scorched by the ridiculously high temperature.
The death spirit king's mouth twitched. He felt an ominous portent of danger from his soul and body, stronger than anything he had felt to date.
Even so, his eyes burned with excitement and ambition. If he were able to defend against this blow, all his problems would be resolved immediately.
The temperature around Zhang Lie grew so hot that his surroundings began to warp. Mirages formed all around him.
One of Zhang Lie's blades glowed with radiant light; the other shone scarlet with water-attuned genetic energy.
He combined them both for a devastating effect. The spiritual, metaphysical sea combined with the scarlet steam that hung around Zhang Lie, half the attack in the boundary between the real and the illusory, and the other half in illusory-warping reality.
The attack was so strong that it could distort the very fabric of reality itself.
The two halves of the attack clashed with each other.
The spiritual sea began to burn, as though it had been ignited by the scarlet steam, forming spiritual flame. The scarlet steam, bolstered by the spiritual sea, grew even hotter.
Contact with the steam seemed to sap at one's very soul.
Zhang Lie had allowed these two disparate sources of energy to combine, and their merger was so intense that the distinction between the real and illusory began to blur.
The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide. The waves roared through the sea like galloping steeds, like thundering dragons.
From afar, the waves looked like a coven of flaming phoenixes spreading their wings and taking flight; from close up, they looked like flaming dragons.
These manifestations all drew from Zhang Lie's immense spiritual and genetic energy reserves, along with the sword techniques and willpower that he had honed over countless battlefields.
The spiritual sea seemed to belong to a separate dimension altogether, whereas the scarlet water-attuned genetic energy was in Zhang Lie's current dimension.
The two sources of energy were linked and made manifest by Zhang Lie, and they both surged forward as Zhang Lie swung his twin blades.
The two blades combined spiritual and genetic energy, willpower and time. All that melded into a tsunami which surged toward the death spirit king's prone body.
The combination of these disparate energies was so potent that it could destroy any lifeform's body and soul.
The death spirit king's eyes widened in alarm. He was trying to make use of Zhang Lie's attack to refine his body and help him digest the remaining lumps of wills of the world, not to commit suicide.
The death spirit king realized that he was in danger. He had never expected that Zhang Lie would possess a spiritual attack, nor that it would be so strong.
The combination attack was at ridiculous levels of strength on both the spiritual and physical level. One alone was a problem; both, combined, would be more than sufficient to kill the death spirit king.
Around the vortex of reality and illusion, the scarlet sea and spiritual sea spun around each other, forming a massive tsunami that shook the entire world.
The death spirit king roared. He pushed the world's energy he commanded to the limit, until they burned like scorching suns, transforming into power that would cause the universe to tremble.
The multicolored sun was sucked into the tsunami at the intersection of reality and illusion. The world of black rain quaked. The ground cracked into large pieces, and the world began to fragment.
The tsunami suppressed the multicolored sun, unraveling it bit by bit. The death spirit king screamed as he was caught up in the tsunami, which dissolved his attack and the world's energy that shielded him.
Zhang Lie sheathed his blades and calmed the fiery-red water-attuned genetic energy that continued to pulse from his body.
The temperature of the world of black rain dropped. Where the whirlpool had been was a deep hole, one so deep the abyss seemed to reach out.
From Zhang Lie's perspective, the battle was over—but just then, multicolored flames poured out of the abyssal hole. Zhang Lie grew alarmed as a pillar of radiant energy shot into the air. Zhang Lie stepped back and scrambled for shelter as the figure clad in rainbow light stopped short in the air, standing proudly with his chest puffed out. To Zhang Lie's eyes, that was an existence comparable to a devil.
"Hahaha, thank you, I'm very thankful indeed! Your strength has helped my rebirth tremendously!" The death spirit king glanced arrogantly down at the world of black rain, a layer of lustrous, radiant armor around his body.
After successfully surviving Zhang Lie's [Blades, Extinguish], his soul had been perfectly reforged.
The death spirit king laughed. "Haha, I was only able to merge perfectly with the will of the world because of you. I had been mistaken—even if I were to borrow your strength, all I would be able to digest was the world's energy. However, I never digested the true form of these wills—the soul fragments that were embedded in my soul. That only happened because of your attack."
Zhang Lie activated his dragon's pupils and scanned the death spirit king's soul carefully. It had changed in a remarkably strange and eerie fashion.
[Blades, Extinguish] had chopped up the death spirit king's soul and combined it with the various fragments of the wills of the world. contemporary romance
The death spirit king shouted excitedly, "I thought I would be able to deal with the impurities in my soul by burning these soul fragments of the wills of the world, but I realized I was mistaken when your attack cut my soul apart.
The more wills I devoured, the greater the side effects I had to suffer. If I continued devouring the wills of the world, I would eventually have exploded from their combined effects."
The death spirit king's sinister path to power came with consequences, which had been steadily accumulating in his body.
"However, they're all gone now! Truly, thank you," the death spirit king repeated...
