Chapter 733: Self-ImmolationDuan Zisuan was shocked by Zhang Lie's mastery of time, and the incredible number of strange techniques he had with it as the theme. In addition to [Shadow and Light], Zhang Lie possessed the four runic tablets from his dragonturtle transformation, along with [Time's Passing].
Zhang Lie had made truly notable advances in his understanding of time.
He held his blades crossed against each other. They gave off blinding light.
"[Blades, Extinguish]!" From the surface of his spiritual sea came waves charging forward, sounding like peals of thunder, like stampeding hooves.
A sea of spiritual and genetic energy materialized before Zhang Lie. The waves roared through the sea like galloping steeds, like thundering dragons. The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide. Spiritual energy condensed into shining waves. Like a tsunami, the waves filled the entire pocket dimension.
Not backing down, Duan Zisuan clasped his hands together, his wrists aligned and his fingers spread out. Red flames burst forth from his palms, forming the shape of a Suanni. A waterfall of lightning rained down on him.
As fire and lightning coiled around him, Duan Zisuan's strength rose to its peak. The entire world seemed to be shaking and trembling at the very idea of his attack.
Massive quantities of lightning- and fire-attuned genetic energy poured into Duan Zisuan, and even the aliens of the Milky Way watching from afar widened their eyes.
They had almost grown numb to the increasing levels of strength they had been witnessing during this fight—but this was so far beyond the norm that they grew worried once more.
Any of the two combatants' blows could have annihilated them easily, but this attack seemed as though it would go beyond simple annihilation.
As Duan Zisuan howled, the lightning and fire fused together into a dual-element dragon, which shot out toward Zhang Lie.
Zhang Lie's spiritual sea formed a bulwark against the dragon, causing a massive explosion in mid-air as brilliant white light, lightning, and flames rained down from the sky.
The aliens of the Milky Way and western elites retreated to avoid the bombardment. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFirᴇ.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
The fight between Zhang Lie and the king of the west was only growing more and more serious; huge tracts of land around them would be caught in the aftermath.
Despite the explosion, neither Zhang Lie nor Duan Zisuan stopped their fight. This would be a battle to the death.
The two combatants exchanged blows in mid-air, lighting the skies up in red and gold and white.
Streaks of lightning flashed. Brilliant white light flared across the sky, dotted with darkness from Zhang Lie's water-attuned genetic energy. The two combatants faced off, sword energy shrouding Zhang Lie, and lightning and fire revolving around Duan Zisuan.
"[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.
The blade Hanguang morphed into a black dragon, and the blade Guicang into a blood dragon. The two dragons, coiling together as one, shot out toward Duan Zisuan like a hurricane, carrying the waves of Zhang Lie's spiritual sea with them. Tremendous suction, like that from a black hole, sucked up everything around the two combatants—clods of earth and stone, which were instantly annihilated in the hurricane's center.
As the hurricane grew larger and larger, the entire battlefield turned dark. Even the spectators found themselves having to hold hands in order to avoid being sucked through the air.
Not to be outdone, Duan Zisuan unleashed his ultimate attack: claws of thunder and flame, forming dual suns in the sky. A purple sun of lightning and red sun of fire overlapped each other high above the two combatants and merged into a purplish-red sun that burned so brightly, so dazzlingly, that none were able to look up at it but all could feel its heat.
Scorching heat washed over the world, and everything in sight seemed to distort. The spectators began to sweat furiously.
Zhang Lie's attack clashed with Duan Zisuan, sending another burst of explosions through the air. The entire sky turned white—not just on the battlefield, but over the entire world.
The next moment, all that vanished—swallowed up by Zhang Lie's black and blood dragons.
Even after swallowing up the purplish-red sun, the dragon duo didn't seem satisfied. They continued flying onward to Duan Zisuan, who howled as he discharged lightning at full capacity. His electrified fur glowed red as he consolidated his strength within his body, which ballooned in size.
The next moment, his body blurred as he swiped at the hurricane with his lightning- and fire-filled claws.
Duan Zisuan could feel his strength being sapped away the closer he got, and his claws turned bloody from just a moment's contact. Regardless, he gritted his teeth and bore with the pain. Even as the hurricane sucked away his strength, he ripped it apart with his two claws.
Black genetic energy exploded from its midst, sending even the spectators far away reeling from the impact. The twin black and blood dragons emerged in view once again.
Duan Zisuan, whose strength had reached a new peak beyond what he knew was possible, batted both dragons away with nothing but his claws.
