Chapter 866: Death Foretold

Feitian didn't seem to care about its injuries. The sea of blood swelled and surged toward Zhang Lie like a wall of blood.

"[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.

His blade annihilated the seawater that threatened to overwhelm him in a burst of energy, then turned it back on Feitian. Feitian retaliated with a burst of blood-colored energy from its mouth.

The high-temperature energy warped the air as it vaporized everything it encountered. When it struck Zhang Lie's blow, the two different types of energy struggled to overwhelm each other, but neither could succeed. Instead, a huge explosion filled the battlefield.

The seawater evaporated, leaving the seabed visible. It began to crack, split, and melt under the energy of the explosion.

Feitian blocked the explosion with the bulk of its body, whereas Zhang Lie destroyed the remnant energy rushing toward him with a swing of his sword.

"[Shadow and Light]!" Time suddenly sped up in the vicinity of Zhang Lie. He appeared before Feitian in the blink of an eye, and his sword slashes fell like rain.

His sword was imbued with the metaphysical concept of time, but Feitian's body was so massive that Zhang Lie found himself unable to strike at its weak spots.

Feitian had curled its body up, shielding its sensitive organs with enough bulk that it looked almost like a planet in its own right.

However, Zhang Lie had no intention of giving up and leaving before destroying the xuluo world. The xuluo king had to die at any cost.

"[Syzygy]!" A burning black sun rose behind Zhang Lie's back, and a bloody moon flared into existence at his feet. Under the combination of the two auras, Zhang Lie seemed to have transformed into a god.

His aura was magnified tenfold, and a halo of black sun appeared above his forehead. Natural law seemed to warp around him. Runes glimmered on the bloody moon by his feet, forming an intricate array.

Zhang Lie's aura grew stronger as stronger as Feitian's heaven's might weakened.

"[Blades, Reverberate]!" A blood dragon materialized around Zhang Lie. Energy poured out of him in waves, honing the edge of his blade. The pulses of energy struck the realm like a tsunami, devouring everything within.

The twin blades Guicang and Hanguang emitted a fearsome aura, shining as brightly as the sun and moon. Sword energy materialized from Zhang Lie's blades into a blood dragon that revolved around his body.

The blade Hanguang morphed into a black dragon, and the blade Guicang into a blood dragon. The two dragons coiled together, and even before the technique was unleashed in its entirety, Feitian felt deeply threatened by the attack. It hastily uncurled its body, but it was too late.

The twin dragons shot out toward Feitian like a hurricane, bearing down on it with the might of Zhang Lie's spiritual sea between them.

Before the dragons struck, the huge pressure mounting on Feitian cracked the seabed and formed a humongous whirlpool right around Feitian. The whirlpool gave off so much suction that it was almost like a black hole.

The boulders in the sea detached from the seabed were sucked into the whirlpool, at which point they were instantly turned to rubble.

Feitian's body didn't survive unscathed. The blow cut it up into pieces, and its blood sprayed everywhere. Limbs and flesh filled its vicinity, even as it tried to stitch itself back together using the authority of a superior king.

Zhang Lie had no intention of giving Feitian such an opportunity.

"[Second Form: Piercing the Soul]!" His disaster-grade mistmeld clam soulshard activated as he infused its energy into his swords, causing them to shine radiantly with multicolored light.

As spiritual energy flowed through him, Zhang Lie found himself capable of seeing into Feitian's soul. It was a fuzzy spherical object, so blurry and indistinct that Feitian seemed hardly like a lifeform itself.

A rainbow arc accompanied Zhang Lie's slash, as though an aurora borealis were visible in the sky. It shone in all the colors of the rainbow, momentarily hypnotizing anyone who looked at it.

With Guicang in hand, Zhang Lie flew through the heavens. His sword shone as brightly as the northern lights overhead, bringing him momentarily out of the physical into the intangible. His cut landed not on Feitian's body, but directly on his soul. As the radiant light assaulted Feitian's soul, its body froze up.

The disaster-grade mistmeld clam soulshard, when incorporated into Zhang Lie's soul-targeting attack, had the ability to target and corrupt its opponents' souls.

Even though superior kings were protected by the wills of their world, Zhang Lie's incredible mental energy was able to penetrate that barrier and stun Feitian for a moment.

The sea of blood began to drain away.

While Feitian stood still and unmoving, Zhang Lie readied another blow.

"[Ninecarp Transformation]!" The sky turned red as red scales covered up Zhang Lie's body like a plate of armor. A deer's antlers appeared on Zhang Lie's forehead, and his body was surrounded with scarlet light.

It looked as though he were a fiery qilin, but the scarlet light didn't come from scarlet flames, but rather from fiery-red water-attuned genetic energy that derived from his transformation. His black hair took on a red tint, as though they were lit up by an inner fire. Interlocking rings of black and red that warped natural law surrounded his body, and a domineering aura exuded from him.

The temperature at which his body blazed caused the nearby seawater to vaporize, and the entire sky was dyed scarlet. contemporary romance

Feitian's soul continued to struggle, but it was still severely affected by the disaster-grade mistmeld clam soulshard.

"[Blades, Extinguish]!" Guicang gleamed brightly in Zhang Lie's hands as he infused more and more spiritual energy into it. From the surface of his spiritual sea came waves charging forward, sounding like stampeding hooves, like raging dragons.

Zhang Lie's spiritual sea expanded greatly, past the confines of his own body. As the mistmeld clam soulshard's energy was infused within, it began glowing with multicolored light, simultaneously illusory and real.

The mysterious and phantasmagorical light stunned and captivated everyone in sight...
