After a momentary shock, the solar king and ice queen were both enraged and supremely embarrassed that they had lost to Zhang Lie.
Fortunately, there was no other person present in the meeting room than Li Zongming, and particularly no other superior kings.
Otherwise, the others would surely make fun of them. Even the fact that Li Zongming had witnessed their moment of embarrassment was enough to make them want to crawl into a hole.
The solar king snorted. "Do you think you're strong just because you managed to take down the death spirit king? Without the king of chaos' clone around, you wouldn't even be able to make it back!"
Another dimensional portal opened up, dozens of times larger than the ones the solar king and ice queen had created.
Countless orbs of light floated out from within, surrounded by a seemingly endless supply of the world's energy. The weather turned calm, and the solar king and ice queen's auras were suppressed.
This strange, unusual collection of orbs seemed to be formed of countless worlds, which grew and perished as the orbs expanded and shrank, encapsulating all things within.
It was part of everything, and everything was part of it. It belonged to the liminal, the limitless—it might have been the source of life itself, so deeply connected as it was to the arcane.
Zhang Lie watched on closely. What entered the world weren't these orbs that represented countless worlds, but rather a door that connected to those countless worlds.
As the door drifted over, the orbs formed a projection: a blonde, blue-eyed loli wearing a bonnet and a black dress bedecked with ribbons. She sat on a chair far too large for her body and swung her short legs back and forth. "Why are you standing, ice queen? Why not have a seat?"
The solar king and ice queen stood up, bowing as they greeted the king of keys.
Li Zongming did the same.
The king of keys belatedly noticed something unusual about the atmosphere. "This is a world that we nine superior kings worked together to construct. Trying to make a new world like this is a very troublesome affair, so I hope you won't fight around here." contemporary romance
The solar king bowed respectfully. "Of course, Your Majesty."
The ice queen shrugged. "Thank you for your reminder, king of keys. I would not be so foolish as to break the agreement we initially brokered."
The king of keys inclined his head. "Very good."
The solar king glared at Zhang Lie, as if telling him, "Brat, you got lucky this time."
"Ha." Zhang Lie smiled coldly. If not for the king of keys' sudden appearance, Zhang Lie wouldn't have minded ridding the third realm of two superior kings.
The king of keys' appearance at this very moment was surely intentional.
Another portal opened up, and black fog emerged from within.
The black fog was so thick and dense that even the bright sunlight was unable to disperse it. Wobbling figures could be seen from within the fog, as though a city were hidden inside. The black fog slowly permeated into the meeting room, but none of the superior kings reacted to its presence.
The superior kings' auras kept the fog at a bearable distance of five meters away.
The black fog condensed into a chair, forming a humanoid figure.
The king of keys announced, "The king of black fog is here."
A human's face appeared amidst the fog.
From another portal came a disgusting stench. A vile, grayish fluid, frightening and formless, spilled out from the portal. It quivered and swelled, as though it were the source of all filth and waste.
More and more mutated growths and abominations were visible within the main body's flesh, squelching as they tried to escape—before they were swallowed back into its interior and digested away. It absorbed everything it touched: black fog, rain, frost, and sunlight.
The grayish vapor it produced spread through the air as the stench grew far, far stronger. Even those at the very top of the castle could smell it. Li Zongming clutched at his nose with an ashen face.
Right after the king of evil appeared, everything became cloaked in darkness. Drums sounded, and what seemed like a kaleidoscope unfolded before them. It then melted away, revealing a deep abyss filled with black worlds and suns.
A portal opened in the air, one essentially as large as that produced by the king of keys.
Even before the portal opened fully, the world was already greatly affected.
A giant clam walked out of the portal—yes, walked out of it.
Cylindrical growths grew out of its interior, like appendages that helped it crawl forward. A face with no mouth and empty sockets for eyes looked out from within.The clam's interior was filled with darkness and chaos. Even given Zhang Lie's strength, he couldn't peer into its interior.
He knew that doing so would cause him to feel a particularly arresting bout of discomfort. It seemed as though there were countless figures blowing flutes by his ear and whispering words of madness.
The boulders on the ground, the frost that had accumulated—all life on the world began to screech shrilly. Tentacles grew out of them, followed by limbs and a massive mouth. The howls accompanied the clam's motion; the clam distorted all natural law, even the basest logic, in its vicinity.
This clam was naturally the king of chaos.
The king of chaos' strength seemed to have increased even further, considering the fact that he was now able to affect even dead lifeforms.
A bone-chilling darkness twisted heaven and earth, warping even natural law. Sun, darkness, fog, and rain swirled around an abyssal wind. Except for the king of keys, everyone bowed down to him.
Zhang Lie's expression was complicated. He had enjoyed chatting with Nightdemon, a clone of the king of chaos, but he had not even the slightest interest in chatting with this giant clam.
With a smooth distortion of natural law, the king of chaos appeared within the meeting room. His voice seemed to emerge telepathically from the clam. "It looks like everyone's present."
The mental transmission caused Li Zongming, the solar king, and the ice queen to wince in pain. Claws and tentacles grew out of the monstrous lifeforms gestating in the king of evil's body, but it swallowed them back.
A weak-willed existence would quickly distort under the corrupting influence of the king of chaos, growing tentacles and becoming an illogical madman.
The solar king's gaze turned to Zhang Lie. "It looks like the decaying king's dead."
"You didn't believe me?" The king of chaos sent another mental transmission at the solar king, who clutched his head in pain.
"No, no, I wouldn't dare." The solar king lowered his head.
