Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1580: The Black Sea Raging

Thinking back to what his 'father' had said in the ancient hall during the tournament, Zhang Lie couldn't help but feel that there was a huge mystery surrounding himself. His background, which had seemed entirely ordinary, if unfortunate, now felt as though it were filled with holes.

Li Qianlin asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhang Lie belatedly came to his senses. "There aren't any threats to the Milky Way at the moment, are there?"

Despite that, the Milky Way was sending all its potential combat forces into the dimensional realm to die.

Zhang Lie continued, "It's natural for various planets and forces to want stronger genetic hunters to appear. After all, if other planets have fourth-realm hunters and you don't, you'd definitely lose out on all fronts. However, the united world federation of the Milky Way doesn't have this issue. Rather, the fewer strong genetic hunters there are, the easier it is for the world federation to retain control."

"Isn't it to explore the dimensional realm?"

"That's part of it."

But that was too simple a reason, wasn't it?

Yang Ze waggled a finger. "Captain, it's simply part of the art of politics."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Lie asked.

"Leaving a large number of strong genetic hunters in the Milky Way would surely lead to wars. The united world federation wouldn't be able to govern effectively or safely then. "From their perspective, it would be far better to send genetic hunters into the dimensional realm. It doesn't matter what they do, really. It would be ideal if they all died within. Each genetic hunter might as well be a bomb that could go off at any moment."

Sun Xiaowu nodded. "If that's really the case, then I have to applaud the united world federation for their foresight. It's been many years since we had a large war, after all."

Zhang Lie frowned. "I can't help but think that things aren't so simple. There must be something we're not aware of."

"Why do you think so, Captain?" Yang Ze asked.

"The fifth-realm hunters must have thought of the same thing you did, but none of them have said anything. Indeed, even within the Milky Way at large, there are barely any active fifth-realm hunters. Where could those mysterious fifth-realm hunters have gone?"

A black sea roiled under the airship's next destination.

Winds howled, giant waves filled the air, and the world was pitch-black.

The black sea caught forked tendrils of blood-red lightning and quenched them in a bottomless abyss.

The sea shook in rage. Waves charged forward, lapping the shore, sounding like peals of thunder, like stampeding hooves.

The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide. The entire sea shifted, and lightning crackled amidst the void.

The black sea had just experienced an intense fight against a storm of annihilation, which began to devour the black sea even as the black sea devoured the storm. The two forces met each other in a crackling forest of lightning. The black sea continued to roil, wave after wave crashing onto his opponent's technique.

In the end, the black sea managed to transform and absorb the energy of annihilation, winning ultimate victory.

The energy of annihilation reformed into a black sea.

The raging black sea roared, "I'll kill you! I'll kill you, I swear I'll kill you!"

The sea had morphed into a boundless battlefield. The sea breeze was as a horn to action, and the waves, thousands of courageous soldiers heeding its call. Boulders on shore, weighing thousands of tons, were sent sinking into the sea.

The black sea continued to roil. The energy of annihilation had dealt tremendous damage to Cthaat's mass, diminishing it by at least a third. Cthaat ws going crazy; his sea was rampaging.

Waves roared through the skies like galloping steeds, like thundering dragons.

The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide.

The waves crested in mid-air, as though heralding an apocalypse.

"I'll get rid of all cockroaches!"

Time suddenly seemed to stop. The water froze in mid-air as eyes appeared all over the sky. Strange energy fluctuations resolved into a criticizing voice, "Cthaat, what are you doing?

The black sea revolved slowly, transforming from water into time.Cthaat's voice called out, "Don't stop me, Aforgomon!"

Aforgomon said, "Didn't I already tell you not to waste your strength? The Ancient Gods' Abode isn't the only force in the world; the Demonic Temple is an organization that's rapidly growing stronger. They're eyeing each other and preparing for a fight, so don't waste energy needlessly."

"My children are all dead!" Cthaat raged.

Aforgomon replied, "I've already found the vault of the god of creation. As long as we can open up that vault and obtain the treasure of creation, we'll be able to destroy the Ancient Gods' Abode and the upstart Demonic Temple in an instant, then rule this world. Focus your strength and attention on that vault; put everything else aside for the time being." Cthaat roared, "That cockroach killed my last child right before my eyes!"

"Wasn't that just your avatar?"

Cthaat countered, "Do you have children?"

Aforgomon replied, "The vault of the god of creation contains countless treasures that we can't even dream of. The Ancient Gods' Abode has been hoping to acquire them long before this, and they and the Demonic Temple will surely attempt to hinder our operation. We don't have spare energy for private matters."

By then, the black sea had completely transformed into a sea of time. Cthaat continued to rage within a bubble of stopped time. "You don't understand what it feels like to be a parent that has just lost a child!"

The sea of time manifested a number of galloping steeds, of thundering dragons. They flew by, ignoring the dense collection of eyes and ears in the sky.

Above the sea of time, waves surged forth. From afar, the lava looked like a flock of egrets, like howling serpents.

Aforgomon was completely unable to stop the inexorable advance of the sea of time.

He fell silent; rarely did Cthaat disobey him.

The sea tended to be calm. Although Cthaat frequently lost control of his emotions, considering his strength and the power and prestige of Eternal Sun, there were rarely any matters that could rouse his anger. When he was well and truly angry, however, even Aforgomon couldn't calm him down.

Aforgomon gave up on locking time down. He looked silently into the distance where Cthaat had vanished, then gave up on caring entirely.

"The Ancient Gods' Abode and Demonic Temple are focused on the vault of the god of creation, so no one should be causing Cthaat any trouble in the short term. I hope Cthaat won't cause too much of a commotion and will calm down quickly..."
