Chapter 1125: Each Hunter's Strengths

Temporal stasis only worked on the weak, with very limited effect on combatants on the level of superior kings. Even in Fang Yi's region of locked time, the various combatants on the battlefield could slowly, if arduously, move.

Three existences easily shrugged off the effect of the time lock: first, the king of keys, whose body was a world in its own right, and who was least affected by the imposition of external law; and second, Zhang Lie, whose strength was far beyond everyone else present, and who was two or three levels of strength above Fang Yi.

Fang Yi's temporal stasis had no effect on Zhang Lie whatsoever.

However, neither the king of keys nor Zhang Lie had any intention of interfering. They watched each other carefully amidst the void, neither making the first move. Their opponent was, and could only be, each other.

The third and final combatant on whom the temporal stasis had no effect was none other than Ghroth. Ghroth's planet-headed figure granted him some resistance against the temporal stasis, although much less so than the king of keys' natural resistance.

Fang Yi didn't expect much. He knew very well that combatants on the level of superior kings would be affected only to a limited extent, which was why he had notified everyone in advance and asked them to buy him whatever time they could.

Ghroth released a huge swarm of night devourers that drained the temporal energy around Fang Yi. They feasted on that energy and grew engorged. The night devourers were surrounded by gray fog, thunder, and storm.

Simultaneously, as the night devourers drained the temporal energy, the time lock was released.

Sun Mengmeng and the others found themselves able to move again, though not freely. They could clearly sense the resistance that they had to wade through, but they were strong enough to fight through it.

Sun Xiaowu's golden clones rushed forward. After the night devourers feasted on the temporal energy, they grew strong—and those insects that Sun Xiaowu's clones had easily taken down were now able to fight on equal footing with them.

Sun Mengmeng shot out a few arrows, but the night devourers, shockingly, were able to dodge them. After absorbing the energy of time, the night devourers were able to move more quickly.

"[Golden Divide: Deicide]!" Sun Xiaowu's golden clones struck simultaneously, their golden blades forming a flood.

The night devourers were able to move quickly enough to dart through the gaps between the blades, but the blades were so densely packed that they couldn't avoid them all.

"[The Nine Moons of the Underworld]!" Nine flaming moons appeared in the sky, illuminating the void. The temperature rose sharply as the nine moons fell and exploded amidst the sixfold disasters. Pitch-black flame spread through the void.

Zhang Hanxiang extended her arms. Snowflakes appeared in the air as the temperature of the void dropped dramatically. The ice and frost helped out Sun Xiaowu. It was so cold that even time seemed to freeze for a few moments.

The night devourers were frozen stiff.

Upon witnessing the state of the other insects in the swarm, those insects that had been lucky enough not to be frozen pounced on their erstwhile companions and devoured them whole.

Zhang Hanxiang frowned. "Cannibals!"

Sun Xiaowu's hundred thousand clones punched forward, shattering the space before them.

Frightening shockwaves of energy radiated through the battlefield, causing a large number of night devourers to explode on the spot.

Ghroth attacked once again, sending a tsunami of steel, lava spouts, silvery-white and pitch-black lightning, a purple storm, spatial rifts, and a rain of meteors toward the hunters.

Sun Xiaowu shouted, sharing his experience against this attack, "If you want to block his attack, you have to do so at full strength! Don't hold back, and don't try to weaken it layer by layer."

"Got it!" Li Feng nodded. A silvery-white glow, blinding in its intensity, exploded from his body. The shockwaves that emanated from his body were so intense as to distort space. They roared through the air like thundering dragons, turning the void white.

"[Light's Bulwark: Heavenfall]!" The light-attuned genetic energy morphed into a roaring river that poured down on the sixfold disasters like a flood. Thick, concentrated energy like sharp blades piercing heaven and earth fell from the void, disrupting the advance of the disasters..

The night devourers that had yet to perish, accompanied by the Xiagai, flew toward the hunters.

"[Lunar Apostasy]!" Sun Mengmeng's entire bow was blazing. She launched her arrows straight into the air, which exploded among the clouds and formed a black moon, exploding in the air, shooting down rays of moonlight, and killing the insects.

The night devourers devoured the flames filling the air. Zhang Hanxiang launched another attack, freezing a number of the bugs.

The ice that she controlled was particularly unusual, and even the night devourers weren't able to digest it.

"[Light's Bulwark: Thousand Dragons Soaring]!" As Li Feng yelled out, dragons of light materialized and circled his arms. As he punched upward into the sky, all his genetic energy condensed in his fists, launching dozens of dragons into the sky.

The dragons' cries sounded like peals of thunder as they swooped through the air, thousands of them in all.

The night devourers faced off against the dragons. After devouring the dragons, they would be bitten to death by others. The swarm of night devourers and horde of light dragons waged war for aerial dominance.

"[Netherworld's Torrential Flame]!" A frightening fan of flames poured out from Sun Mengmeng's bow, an attack far stronger than the moonlight she had summoned. The intensity of her technique shocked everyone.

The flames arced in the air and fell toward the battlefield in a waterfall. contemporary romance

The rate at which Sun Mengmeng shot out arrows was incredible. Even as the night devourers swallowed her arrows, more would pierce them through and perforate their bodies. They would be lit aflame by the flames and subsequently be burned to ash.

Ghroth's body shook violently as scorching-hot steel roiled around him, expelling ash and hot vapors through the void, as though he were surrounded by a huge cloud of gas.

Even against Sun Xiaowu's golden mecha or golden qilin, Ghroth hadn't reacted so adversely.

Ghroth's eyes were locked onto Fang Yi.

Fang Yi combined [Born of Lightning, Swallowed by the Wind], [Tiger's Howl, Dragon's Bellow], [Heaven's Judgment], and the power of karma—the greatest boon he had obtained from consuming Potion #4.

Wind, storm, time, space, and now the mysterious power of karma… All these sources of energy were stacked together, like buff after buff.

A dragon of purple lightning and tiger of green wind, shielded by a barrier of time and shrouded by black spatial energy, slowly began to manifest. This combination of energies was held together by the mysterious power of karma. As Fang Yi poured more and more genetic energy into the attack, a storm roared into existence around him...
