Chapter 1211: A Sudden Anomaly

Chapter 1211: A Sudden AnomalyYang Ze cried out excitedly, "Wonderful! The high-dimensional spaces are being restored, and the situation is already improving. In just a little time, the will of the world will be able to restore it all."

The restored will of the third realm was far stronger than its fragmented version, and the restoration of the deepest layers of space was complete within mere moments. The restored will was efficient and potent.

Yang Ze sighed in relief. "You were right, Captain. This was an effective solution, and the will of the third realm was the best choice for restoring itself."

Just as the crowd was about to relax, a loud roar rang out amidst the multicolored sky, and the whole world seemed to shake. A monster wreathed in black flame arced into the air.

Zhang Lie stared at it seriously, only to realize that it was the special lifeform that had been in the farm on the draconian world.

That lifeform was rapidly growing in power beyond the limits of a monarch-grade lifeform.

Zhang Lie was astounded that it had managed to break through using the blessing of the restored will—and that it was now rushing into the air in an attempt to launch a sneak attack on the will and on Zhu.

It would be difficult for Zhu and the will to respond while they were focusing on restoring the deepest layers of space.

It had taken an immense feat of labor to finally unify the three thousand worlds. If this lifeform were to successfully launch a sneak attack on Zhu and the restored will, the unified world would perish, as would the third realm as a whole.

Zhang Lie wasn't about to sit back and let such a tragedy occur.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!"

Pale blue genetic energy rippled about Zhang Lie's arms. He flicked his wrists, causing a frightening aura to descend on the world. The skies began to darken, and a fish the size of a whale materialized in the air.

A howling gale swept over the land. As more and more genetic energy gathered around Zhang Lie's arms, it looked as though he were at the heart of a whirlpool.

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.

Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him. The towering waves looked like enraged black dragons, flooding the land and blocking the special lifeform's path.

A huge rumble shook the heavens, and the entire world quaked.

As the waves burst apart, the air filled with echoes of Zhang Lie's signature genetic energy, the tide causing explosions that shook the air. The special lifeform was forced back.

As the pale-blue tides burst in the air, Zhang Lie appeared before the special lifeform, hovering in the air.

The special lifeform had not yet reached the next grade of lifeform, but it was clearly beyond that of a usual monarch-grade one.

Its eyes, filled with desire, stared avidly at the will of the world and at Zhu. Zhang Lie understood what was going on immediately.

It wanted to devour the restored will and Zhu to grow stronger, to take the last step to ascend beyond monarch-grade. It hadn't considered what would happen to the world and the realm afterward.

"Captain!"

The members of Team Zenith rose into the air in an attempt to help him.

Zhang Lie called out, "The lifeforms are escaping from the farm!"

The lifeforms of the farm, which had been reared in captivity, were generally more docile than those in the wild, but they had all gone on a rampage owing to the influence of the special lifeform.

"There are over a dozen monarch-grade lifeforms out there. Stop them!"

The rampaging monarch-grade lifeforms could easily and unintentionally stomp careless aliens to death.

The members of Team Zenith nodded and rushed off to stop the lifeforms.

After the restored will's blessing, the special lifeform had evolved once again, changing its appearance. Its new body wasn't particularly large, but it was covered with golden scales.

The scales looked as though they were made of gold, and gleamed with resplendent light. The pressure that wafted off the lifeform was like that of a hill.

A ferocious head popped out from among the special lifeform's armored body, as though it were a golden lion encased in armor.

With a tremendous roar, golden radiance swept over the land as the special lifeform pounced forward.

As it did so, the land cracked apart. Its golden claws were charged with such killing intent that many of the aliens and hunters were frozen stiff. They were blown away by a gust of golden wind.

Boulders large and small were hurled into the air and sent smashing toward Zhang Lie.

Zhang Lie waved a hand, sending the storm back toward the special lifeform.

He darted among the rocks and landed on the golden lion's body as naturally as though he were a floating leaf, then grabbed it by its mane. "We'll have braised lion tonight, I suppose." Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ N0vᴇlFire(.)nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

The special lifeform roared, emitting a wave of light from its body that flung Zhang Lie away. With a hum, pale-blue genetic energy formed a ball around Zhang Lie's hands.

"[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 special lifeform blocked the blow with a shield of glittering radiance.

It vanished from the spot and barely avoided Zhang Lie's attack. It reappeared far away, wary of the opponent whose blow it had barely avoided.

It roared once more, so loudly and ferociously that the bystanders below felt as though their souls were about to be expelled from their bodies. The fight between Zhang Lie and the special lifeform took place over a battlefield of unparalleled size.

The golden lion howled again. Its new genes had yet to solidify and stabilize. Its armor cracked open to reveal nine different heads: a dragon, a snake, a turtle, a tiger, a bird... the nine heads howled as one, sending nine waves of golden radiance through the sky.

The ground cracked, and the weaker hunters fell to their knees.

Zhang Lie resisted the attack at full force, then counterattacked. Man and beast chased each other for hundreds of miles as the battlefield grew larger and larger.

The nine heads roared again. The sound waves took on physical form, and golden ripples covered the air.

As Zhang Lie and the golden lion fought each other off, moving rapidly from one place to the next, the golden waves caused the surrounding low-lying mountains to crack and fall, and some boulders even burst apart into powder.

The bystanders, who had followed the fight as it progressed and moved, were staring open-mouthed and shivering.

The golden lion's body was that of an apex predator, and its claws had the power to destroy mountains. When those claws smashed into Zhang Lie's fist, the resulting boom could be heard all throughout the world, not unlike peals of thunder.

As the lion's body smashed into Zhang Lie's, radiant light encapsulated both combatants...
