Chapter 1331: Parents Again

Chapter 1331: Parents Again Zhang Yangyan was a heroic figure. He seemed simultaneously domineering and transcendent, as though he were a god from a higher dimension projected down onto the mortal world.

His eyes seemed surrounded by starlight. Though he was composed only of light and shadow, he seemed somehow more real than the other eidola before him.

Golden flames wreathed his arms as the sky shone with white light. Golden flames roared as Zhang Yangyan punched forward, forming a firestorm that spread across the sky.

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

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

A howling gale swept over the two combatants. 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 area.

The golden flames and boundless ocean clashed in the middle of the arena, which split neatly in two, one side golden and the other blue.

A huge roar echoed through the sky. The arena shook as the tides burst apart. A golden firestorm was set loose like a beast on a rampage. The clash between water and fire almost demolished the arena entirely.

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.

Zhang Yangyan's halberd stemmed the flow of sword energy.

A raging shark swam forth along the current that Zhang Lie had created, opening its bloody maw wide.

Zhang Yangyan's halberd gleamed. Initially dark, it turned a bright golden-yellow as ripples of force emanated from it.

He swung the halberd down as it emitted a fearsome light, like a stellar river. The shark burst in an explosion of water.

"[Ninecarp Transformation]!"

A black serpent, which resembled the world-swallowing serpent Jormungandr, appeared. It let out a threatening hiss as its scales clicked together.

Pitch-black genetic energy spread over the arena in corrosive dark clouds.

The golden halberd seemed to come to life like a ferocious beast, gleaming with golden scales, the horns on its head a fearsome sight to behold.

With his halberd soulshard activated, Zhang Yangyan grew even stronger.

The beast's howl blew the dark clouds away.

Zhang Yangyan swung his halberd forward as the golden beast roared and barreled forward in the direction of the swing. Its sharp, shining horns seemed to be overlaid atop the halberd.

Zhang Lie shifted to the side and avoided a direct confrontation. He leaned and rolled away. His finger struck the side of the halberd with a ringing echo that almost tore the sky apart.

The next moment, he shot toward his father's eidolon in a bolt of light and began to strike at full strength.

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.

Zhang Yangyan pointed his halberd toward Zhang Lie. An illusory golden halberd floated around him. As he waved his halberd in elegant arcs, countless illusory halberds transformed itno golden dragons that rushed toward the sky like meteors.

Zhang Lie swiped forward with both claws, shattering the golden dragons in a metallic clash.

Zhang Yangyan's body flashed as he shot straight forward. A burst of golden light emanated from his body, as though a thousand arrows had been shot out.

He swung his halberd in a wide arc, forming a golden wave.

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

As Zhang Lie punched forward, a blood dragon roared in outrage and tore the golden wave apart.

Zhang Yangyan's eyes glowed with starlight. Golden rays of dawn light bubbled forth as Zhang Yangyan retreated and tossed his halberd forward like a javelin. A golden sun ignited as the skies turned golden. The halberd pierced through space and time, smashing into and obliterating the blood dragon.

A wave of annihilation exploded around the dragon. Pitch-black energy swallowed everything in the vicinity like a storm at sea. Pulses of energy spread over the arena.

The explosion was like a black hole that consumed everything in sight, but Zhang Lie and Zhang Yangyan had both retreated in time. Neither was injured.

Black genetic energy burst forth from Zhang Lie, as though there were hundreds, thousands of dragons surging throughout his body.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Hundred Dragons Soaring]!"

A horde of dragons launched out of Zhang Lie's left arm as he expended half his genetic energy in one supercharged attack.

Howling with the force of thunder, the hundred dragons soared through the air. They were fierce and domineering, and all hundred of them boasted the power of annihilation.

Zhang Yangyan's eyes gleamed with stellar might. As though he could predict the future, he evaded one dragon after another.

"Hold on, the ability to predict the future...?"

Zhang Lie could see temporal power spinning in Zhang Yangyan's eyes. Upon recalling what Bu Wentian had mentioned, he had an uncertain guess as to his father's power.

Sword energy flew toward the air and burst apart like a phoenix's feathers, holy and transcendent.

Zhang Yangyan struck with his halberd, launching one perfect swing.

The two attacks clashed with one another. In terms of strength, Zhang Yangyan's eidolon was quite a bit weaker, and he was sent flying.

"[The Boundless Blade: the River Lethe]!"

Zhang Lie raised the blade in his hand high into the air, encircled by black genetic energy. The temperature of the air dropped to sub-zero values, and a strong wind buffeted the two combatants present.

An underworld river materialized in the air. As though the doors to hell had just been thrown open, tens of thousands of serpents rushed out in a flood.

Zhang Yangyan swung his halberd once again, slicing apart the universe itself. Thousands of stars glimmered with light, an expanse of space vast without end. The halberd cut apart the netherworld river, and the starlight vanquished one serpent after another.

Though the serpents were almost infinite in number, replenished quickly as they were by the pitch-black genetic energy surrounding Zhang Lie, the might of the stars was itself limitless. Each beam of starlight was like a blade that cut through the serpents.
