Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1220: A Quick Spar

Standing amidst the hurricanes of energy were eight figures. Even Zhu's pocket space proved insufficient at isolating the energies that surrounded them.

Sun Mengmeng was wrapped in pitch-black flame. The air was scorching and aflame.

Yang Ze was wrapped in a pale blue ocean, shining like a mirror, illusions and mirages surrounding him. Stormy waves lapped at him but didn't expand beyond a certain radius around him, as though he were in a pocket space entirely his own.

Sun Xiaowu was illuminated with golden light, and behind him was the manifestation of a martial god that took on Zhang Lie's form.

Silvery-white light shrouded Li Feng. An arclight dragon coiled around him and soared into the sky.

Wind and storm circled Fang Yi, along with the less obvious energies of fate and chaos.

Zhou Ying was the most special. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, the color of crystalline jade. It gave off motes of vitality. She was so beautiful no one could take their eyes away, and golden leaves whirled around her. The tips of her hair produced gray fog.

The gray power gathered around Zhou Ying's forehead, which cracked apart. A gray eye budded from her flesh. It opened up to reveal a chaotic opal iris, which seemed to be able to penetrate flesh, soul, and space.

Each leaf was like a miniature sun, orbiting around the woman's body. To her back was a pair of golden wings formed from energy. Above her head was a glowing sun, giving off a radiant, holy light.

Her jade-green eyes were flecked with gold, and she seemed to have become one with the land. The vitality radiating from her was visible to the naked eye. Stellar light surrounded her as though she were a goddess given form.

Black energy formed a gauzy dress around her, sticking closely to her limbs and revealing her curvaceous features—no, making them even more curvaceous than they originally were.

Where her body was slim, it remained slim; where it protruded, it protruded even more. Two root-like tendrils writhed under her dress; her body radiated a seductive charm.contemporary romance

It was hard to differentiate whether Zhou Ying was meant to be a holy priestess or a charming succubus. The same woman seemed to possess two different types of charm.

Vitality, natural energy, a golden solar storm, and a mysterious gray power surrounded her.

Zhang Hanxiang stood amidst a blizzard. The ground was frozen, and crystalline flowers of ice formed where she stood.

Hong Xi's eyes glowed. Her left eye morphed into a black sun, and her right eye into a silver moon. To her back, a pitch-black sun and a silver moon rose into the air. Their light illuminated the sky. The black sun and silver moon were linked by a golden thread, which brought them into proximity with each other.

They overlapped perfectly, forming a bright-red wheel of fire. Behind that fiery wheel was a pale-blue moon. The paired celestial bodies illuminated and twirled around each other, forming the heart of a storm of light.

Black flames, a pale-blue ocean, golden light, silver light, wind and storm, life, ice and snow, sun and moon—it was little wonder that Zhu couldn't simultaneously deal with a shocking profusion of such disparate energies all at once.

If Zhang Lie hadn't arrived at the scene, the clash of the eight different whirlwinds of energy could very well have affected the foundation of the unified world.

Zhang Lie belatedly discovered that Jun Jiuxiao and Ye Xianchen were standing guard beyond the boundary of the energy fluctuations.

When the two of them saw Zhang Lie, they headed over to him and bowed. "Greetings, Master!"

Zhang Lie seemed rather surprised to see them there. "Have neither of you maxed out your monarch gene fragments yet?"

Jun Jiuxiao spread his arms. "There aren't enough monarch-grade lifeforms to go around yet, Master, and we decided to help the members of Team Zenith advance first.

Although Zhu was able to cultivate monarch-grade lifeforms quickly, she couldn't do so indefinitely or at scale. While Zhang Lie was away from the third realm, Zhu had cultivated just enough monarch-grade lifeforms to allow the members of Team Zenith to advance, and even that was predicated on the fact that they already had a few monarch gene fragments.

If the members of Team Zenith hadn't killed some of the monarch-grade lifeforms during their rampage and absorbed some monarch gene fragments as a result, they wouldn't have been able to fill up their supply of monarch gene fragments.

Zhang Lie nodded. "Thank you. It's a good idea for the two of you not to advance so quickly—you recently ascended, after all, and you should get used to the third realm first. How are your fragments?"

Jun Jiuxiao replied, "We've maxed out on disaster gene fragments."

Zhang Lie instructed, "Take some time to find the Yeluo chieftain and obtain Potion #4. Start by obtaining peak limit fragments, then familiarize yourselves with the changes to your body. Once your body's more resilient, start taking in monarch gene fragments."

Jun Jiuxiao and Ye Xianchen glanced at each other in excitement.

Although they had learned from the members of Team Zenith that Zhang Lie had developed Potion #4, neither of them dared to ask for it without Zhang Lie offering it first.

To Zhang Lie, Potion #4 wasn't anything particularly precious; but the situation was different in terms of the hunters of the Milky Way.

To other hunters, Potion #4 might as well have been a galactic-class weapon, one that no one dared ask about without Zhang Lie volunteering information beforehand.

"Thank you, Master!" Jun Jiuxiao and Ye Xianchen chorused.

Just then, the members of Team Zenith waded out from their respective storms, which subsided without their presence. Everyone's strength and aura seemed to have increased a few times over.

Zhang Lie smiled. "It looks like all of you have succeeded."

While Zhang Lie was gone from the third realm, the members of Team Zenith had advanced their training and finished maxing out their monarch gene fragments

The members of Team Zenith smiled. Fang Yi stepped forward. "Captain, let's spar!"

Zhang Lie nodded. "Very well. I'd like to see just how much all of you have grown in the last few days, and I can give you some pointers."

With a low shout, Fang Yi dashed forward with his spear in hand. He launched his spear, crackling with wind and lightning, with incredible force. It sent wind howling and lightning flashing through the sky.

With his spear, he invoked chaotic energy in the form of lightning and raging wind. The spear left a dozen afterimages in its wake, surrounding Zhang Lie's body.

"Not bad, not bad!" Zhang Lie praised, but he hadn't taken a single step.

The clash of metal filled the pocket dimension. Fang Yi waved his spear with lethal speed and precision, but Zhang Lie seemed to be able to block all his attacks with careless sweeps of his arm. No matter what he did, the tip of his spear would stop inches from Zhang Lie. Fang Yi knew that Zhang Lie surely had made a move, but his movements were so rapid that Fang Yi didn't detect them at all.

But Fang Yi never gave up. As Fang Yi attacked, Zhang Lie's body was buffeted by billowing winds and a gathering storm. Sparks flew, and a terrifying aura manifested around Fang Yi.
