Chapter 1087: World of Black Fog

Chapter 1087: World of Black Fog Zhou Ying was undoubtedly the biggest winner of this entire affair, having both obtained the power of the golden mulberry tree and absorbed much of the superior world's energy through the proof of kingship.

Given the increase to Zhou Ying's strength, Fang Yi's wounds healed near-instantaneously.

Li Feng asked, "What should we do with this world?"

Zhou Ying replied, "There are two options. First, we can do what our captain did and extract the superior world's energy present here, or second, we can leave with the proof of kingship and leave the rest to our captain and the other superior kings."

Li Feng proposed, "Let's go with the second option, then. I'm a little tired."

Fang Yi, who had just recovered, agreed. "I just want to rest right now. I don't feel like I can move even a single finger at this point!"

After having fought off three combatants on the level of superior kings, the three hunters were unbelievably tired.

Zhou Ying nodded. "The second option it is."

Like the hunters in the world of blazing sun, those in the white world adopted a similar approach.

After Zhang Hanxiang and Sun Xiaowu finished consuming the two monarch-grade lifeforms they had taken down, they left the white world alongside Hong Xi. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ɴ0velFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

After the three of them departed, a pitch-black figure appeared within the white world. If Zhang Lie were present, he would have immediately recognized the figure as a clone of the king of chaos. Of course, Zhang Lie wasn't at the scene.

By then, Zhang Lie had already arrived at the world of black fog.

The world of black fog was a mystery, the world shrouded from sight by black fog. As Zhang Lie approached, black fog roiled and flew toward him in the form of countless black serpents.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!" A huge wave soared into the air. As Zhang Lie punched forward, the fish slammed its huge tail on the ground and sent a torrent of water surging into the air.

Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him. The towering waves looked like enraged black dragons, flooding the battlefield.

Huge, reverberating sound waves shook the air, causing the void to tremble. As those waves smashed into the black fog, huge explosions resulted, causing the fog to dissipate.

Even so, the center of the world of black fog seemed like a black hole, one which swallowed the energy Zhang Lie had invested in the attack whole.

Zhang Lie snorted. "King of black fog, aren't you going to come out and meet with me?"

The black fog roiled. No response came.

"If you aren't going to meet with me, king of black fog, I'll come to you!" Zhang Lie cried out, flying into the black fog.

After Zhang Lie flew into the black fog, the black fog at the outskirts of the world formed a human face, grinning maliciously.

As Zhang Lie flew into the black fog, he saw city after city within the world of black fog. All the buildings, as well as the people within, took the form of black silhouettes.

The architecture of the world of black fog looked as though it were in the industrialization era, with a large number of factories present in each city.

The factories each gave off large quantities of thick, concentrated smoke. The black silhouettes that moved about within the world of black rain showed no sign of life. They looked like flickering shadows, like robots that had only been programmed to move about.

Zhang Lie quickly sensed something amiss. The black fog was laced with slow-acting poison. Breathing it in had no ill effects for a while, but after longer periods of time, those who did so would asphyxiate and die.

Those flickering silhouettes within the world of black fog weren't lifeforms at all.

Zhang Lie launched an attack at the heart of the world without any hesitation. "[The Boundless Blade: Yawning Wave]!"

Zhang Lie extended his pointer finger like a sword, and water-attuned genetic energy gathered around it. As he waved his finger, sword energy erupted like a wave, accompanied by a giant shark.

The sword slash struck the city and bisected it.

Zhang Lie's actions seemed to trigger some sort of response from the world of black fog.

The black fog around the city seemed to writhe in pain. Countless black claws manifested around the world, all of which tried to claw at Zhang Lie.

Zhang Lie, realizing the fundamental conceit of the world of black fog, tried to leave, but the fog swarmed him en masse to prevent him from doing so.

"[Ninecarp Transformation]!" A black serpent materialized behind Zhang Lie, by now so large and so developed that it resembled the world-swallowing serpent Jormungandr. It let out a threatening hiss as its scales clicked together.

The black fog attacked Zhang Lie from every direction. The black serpent wrapped around Zhang Lie to shield him, but Zhang Lie was unable to evade all the black claws coming his way.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade]!" Zhang Lie punched forward, sending the black serpent outward and destroying all the black claws in sight.

However, the black claws seemed to be neverending. Moments after they were obliterated by the serpent, they regrew out of the smoke and attacked Zhang Lie once more. The smoke swirled around him like a whirlpool, intending to devour him whole.

As Zhang Lie activated his blood ant and dragonwolf soulshards, he transformed into a dragonwolf with russet fur and limbs covered with dragons' scales. His aura became magnified as a hurricane of blood spawned around him.

He morphed into blood-red lightning, whizzing through the air as he tore apart the whirlpool made of black fog. More fog gathered from the ends of the world, all heading straight for Zhang Lie.

"King of black fog, if you don't intend to let me out of this trap, then I hope you're prepared and able to pay the price of doing so."

Blood-red genetic energy surrounded Zhang Lie, and a blood serpent's shadow appeared behind him.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade]!" As Zhang Lie punched forward, the blood dragon roared in rage and charged forward, clawing apart the black fog and smashing into the bulk of it.

A wave of annihilation exploded around the dragon. Pitch-black energy swallowed up everything in the vicinity like a storm at sea. Huge quantities of black fog were consumed by the black-hole like energy of annihilation.

As it absorbed more and more of the fog, the black hole grew larger and larger.

The king of black fog, realizing that something was amiss, hurriedly tried to seal Zhang Lie's attack, only to find that all the energy he poured into the black hole had been converted into Zhang Lie's own strength.

If the king of black fog were to expend even more energy to suppress the black hole, it would only grow even larger.

The energy that Zhang Lie infused into his [Fists of the Silent Sea] wasn't enough to devour an entire superior world, but the world of black fog was particularly unusual. It was surrounded by black fog, and all that black fog turned into even more annihilation energy, causing the black hole to propagate limitlessly...
