Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1534: Feng Xian Strikes

Radiant Sun turned to face Zhang Lie. An explosive aura bloomed from his body, almost like that of a blazing sun.

Zhang Lie refused to relent or back down. He too unleashed his aura, that of a night sea. It expanded forth and devoured everything in sight.

The man wielding the black knife spat out a mouthful of blood on his blade.

The blood revolved around the blade, infusing it with a scarlet sheen. As the man waved the blade around, that light shot down in a cloud of scarlet rain, straight toward Sun Xiaowu's body.

Sun Xiaowu made no move to defend himself. Golden runes appeared over his body like countless weapons and swords.

The weapons resonated with his gold-attuned energy, with the entirety of the ancient hall.

"This is the benefit I obtained for being the first to enter this hall!"

Sun Xiaowu's strength exploded from his body, which was gleaming gold like the stars in the night sky.

Suddenly, fog gathered around him. The runes glowed brilliantly as the runes crashed into each other with tinkling noises, as though they were notes of some divine music.

"[Golden Divide]!"

Sun Xiaowu released a golden, resplendent slash, evoking the might of a galaxy. Each star was like a divine sword that gave off incredible pressure. The golden lights merged together into a river that tore apart the scarlet rain. The man with the black knife attempted to dodge, but the golden light brushed past his side. It tore apart his abdomen, causing blood and intestines to spill out.

He grunted in pain, but that wasn't sufficient to force him back.

The man was a seasoned warrior. He cocked his arm and threw out a punch. A white tiger roared and shot toward Sun Xiaowu.

"[Goldenscale Palm: Qilin]!" Sun Xiaowu's body radiated with light, illuminating the entire hall, as he too threw a punch forward.

Golden scales covered up Sun Xiaowu's arm as it grew thicker and thicker, and the image of a golden qilin appeared behind him.

Even without using his golden clones, Sun Xiaowu had managed to materialize a golden qilin in reality. It shot forward and smashed into the white tiger, obliterating it with its bulk and mass. The man with the black knife spat out another mouthful of blood before he was sent reeling like a kite cut from its string.

On the other side of the altar, Leiting Ya shook. Under the combined assault of Fang Yi and his junior brother, Leiting Zi, his physical body began to split. Blood poured from him; he couldn't hold out much longer.

Angered beyond compare, Leiting Ya fought with his life on the line, maintaining a tenuous grasp on life with his vital lightning as he launched attacks at a furious rate.

"[Shadow and Light]!"

At that very moment, Fang Yi morphed into countless clones. Spear thrusts filled the air to counter the crazed lightning.

Leiting Zi made his move. A silver spear appeared in his hand and struck at Leiting Ya's lower back. It too was forged of lightning and boasted incredible strength.

"Go die!" The sapphire-blue scorpion's stinger suddenly pierced through the void and headed straight for Fang Yi's skull.

Yang Ze launched a sword slash imbued with void energy at the scorpion's stinger, causing it to shudder.

Leiting Ya coughed out a few large mouthfuls of blood as he continued his crazed attacks against Fang Yi and Leiting Zi.

A snowy-white slash brushed by Fang Yi's body. The jade mantis struck as well.

Leiting Zi roared as a field of lightning burst out of his body, knocking aside the frightening mantis.

Leiting Ya barely staunched his wounds with vital lightning as he sent a bolt of lightning at his junior brother, Leiting Zi.

Leiting Zi defended as Fang Yi attacked from the other side.

"[Floating Clouds]!"

The wind and lightning formed a loop around Fang Yi's body.

Wind and storm surged throughout the loop, providing explosive strength that allowed his spear to penetrate Leiting Ya's body once again.

Vital lightning crackled in Leiting Ya's fingers as he shot it out. Fang Yi didn't dare defend against the attack; he retreated and dodged it instead.

Fang Yi frowned. "Are you a cockroach?"

Under Leiting Zi and Fang Yi's combined assault, Leiting Ya had suffered numerous serious injuries. However, his understanding of vital lightning allowed him to recover even when he was at death's door. He might even be more difficult to kill than a cockroach.

Leiting Zi sighed. "If he were easy to kill, do you think he would have lived this long?"

If Leiting Ya really were easy to kill, those cultivators of the Leiting Domain would already have taken him down long ago.

"If not for his accomplishment with vital lightning, the weeds growing atop his grave would be a few meters tall by now."

Leiting Ya laughed. "A few meters? With my understanding of vital lightning, they'd grow a few hundred meters tall!"

Despite the pressure from Fang Yi and Leiting Zi's combined assault, Leiting Ya was still able to joke around with them. It was as though they were just having a pleasant conversation rather than being mortal enemies.

This wasn't because Leiting Ya found the fight easy. It was precisely because he was feeling the mounting pressure that he deliberately acted calm so as to confuse his enemies and buy time for himself—not just to heal his wounds, but also for his comrades to help him out.

Just as Leiting Zi and Fang Yi turned to Leiting Ya once more, the jade mantis launched a sneak attack from behind as Leiting Ya shot toward them from the front.

"[Born of Lightning, Swallowed by the Wind]!"

As Fang Yi shouted, his spear traced a half-moon in the air, surrounded by an aura of time. Light and shadow flashed by its tip, just like the wind and lightning that made up the core of Fang Yi's techniques. The spear pierced space abruptly, spawning a rift that turned its surroundings gray. All movement was locked in time.

The only color in the space, the only movement, came from Fang Yi.

However, Leiting Ya's lightning was so rapid that it still managed to move slowly through the domain of temporal stasis.

Fang Yi thrust his spear forward, penetrating Leiting Ya's forehead, as the jade mantis' sneak attack struck. Everything happened in the blink of an eye, before Leiting Zi could react.

Fang Yi didn't turn back, as though he were unconcerned about Leiting Zi's death—but in truth, this was itself a measure of trust, not in Leiting Zi's strength, but in his true teammates' ability to help him out.

Sun Xiaowu punched forward. Light blossomed across the heavens, resolving the danger from the jade mantis' sneak attack.

Fang Yi turned and smiled at Sun Xiaowu, but it froze on his face.

"Die!" The man wielding a black knife and his female companion shot forward at full strength, intent on killing Sun Xiaowu.

At the same time, Feng Xian made her move. She unveiled a small golden cauldron to suppress Sun Xiaowu.
