Chapter 1350: Whos Coming For Whom?

Chapter 1350: Who's Coming For Whom? "Our predecessors gave their lives and blood for just a bit of breathing room. Could he alone take down Eternal Sun?" one hunter asked of Zhang Lie.

A human hunter replied, nodding, "I know of Zhang Lie of the Zenith Dojo, too. Unlike you, I do think he'll make a name for himself even in the fourth realm—but he's just ascended, hasn't he? What can he do at the moment?"

A hunter from the Milky Way chuckled coldly. "If he really can succeed, then we hunters will finally be able to rise up in the fourth realm, won't we?"

Just then, a huge rumble shook the mountain. The entire mountain seemed to tremble as huge quantities of earth and mud fell. The remaining hunters were all shocked.

"What happened?"

"Has Cthaat's son finally decided to level the mountain whole?"

General Yan Long made a gesture with his hand. "Shh. Wait for a bit first."

The human hunter asked, "What's the matter, General?"

"Doesn't it sound as though the thunder has stopped?"

Just then, an ear-splitting crack of thunder rang out.

Beyond the mountain, as pale blue tides of genetic energy erupted in the air, the clouds dissipated and revealed a sunny blue sky. [Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade] had formed a hole in the sky.

Only then did Zhang Lie see the remnants of the mountain, half of which had been entirely demolished.

Dark clouds revolved around the air as lightning flashed. Plasma transformed into a humanoid face, looking down on the earth like a heavenly monarch, whose voice was like peals of thunder.

"You're the culprit who killed Black Swamp! I thought I'd find you sooner or later by destroying the gathering points of these ants, but I hadn't expected you to appear so quickly."

"You're one of Cthaat's sons, aren't you?"

The plasma face released blinding light. "Since you've popped out here to die, I'll grant your wish."

A bolt of lightning struck from the high heavens.

"[The Boundless Blade: Expulsion]!" Zhang Lie swung downwards with a heavy blow, and a shark swam forth.

The lightning pierced through the shark like a claw, turning the pale blue water-attuned genetic energy into ripples of water.

The lightning transformed into sword energy, filling the sky with meteors.

"[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.

Black genetic energy gushed out, forming pitch-black clouds that represented Zhang Lie's strongest defense. The lightning sizzled as it came into contact with the clouds, dissolving into nothingness before it could strike Zhang Lie.

Concentrated lightning morphed into tens of thousands of spears that penetrated through the pitch-black genetic energy and tore apart the darkness.

Zhang Lie wove and dodged between the spears of lightning. He caught one with a hand, ignoring how it was scorching his palm, and tossed it back into the dark clouds.

The spear exploded amidst the clouds, causing thunder to rumble all over.

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

Zhang Lie punched forward, and the black serpent behind him shot forth.

The pitch-black serpent spiraled upward, shattering the lances of lightning.

The lightning condensed again into a bright sun, a huge ball that shone blindingly, illuminating the ground that had been obscured by the dark clouds. The fulminating sun struck the serpent and obliterated it.

As Zhang Lie activated his monarch-grade limitless universe soulshard, he glowed with stellar radiance, like a burning star. Starlight flowed through his body in phantasmagorical colors.

Zhang Lie's body transformed into a glaze of the dark cosmos, as though the Milky Way itself flowed through his body. His aura grew tremendously.

Zhang Lie simultaneously activated his dragonwolf soulshard. His russet fur seemed to glimmer with stellar radiance, each hair a shining star, as though he were draped with the entirety of the Milky Way. His four limbs were armored with a dragon's scales, each a burning golden sun. The two soulshards' power combined.

A dragon's horns grew out of Zhang Lie's forehead, shining with stellar radiance, surrounded by galactic starlight. To others, he would seem to have the boundless energy of a new galaxy.

Zhang Lie swiped forward with his claws. Starlight flooded forward, splitting the fulminating sun in two.

The starlight continued forward, leaving a huge claw imprint on the dark clouds. The night sky flashed with stars.

The split sun burst apart in a shower of lightning, shaking heaven and earth. Even from afar in Lin Lingfeng's city, the explosion of light could be seen. A wave of heat exploded outward. Lin Lingfeng knew that this had to be Zhang Lie's doing.

"What's this Heavenly Monarch doing now...?"

Starlight surrounded Zhang Lie. Countless stars whizzed away from his body. His pitch-black genetic energy seemed like the astral void, with shining stars scattered throughout.

His genetic energy condensed into a black dragon, whose scales were each a star. The stars inlaid in its body formed a long stellar river, which shot out alongside Zhang Lie's punch.

The lightning gathered and formed a top.

Dense clouds of lightning crackled and revolved around each other. Even before the attack landed, it gave off a frightening aura.

With a huge, resonant bang, the spiraling lightning, like a drill, obliterated the stellar dragon's head—quickly resulting in true annihilation.

The energy of annihilation was like a black hole that sucked up everything in sight, including the lightning, thunder, and dark clouds.

A huge hole formed in the air as the lightning dissipated. The dark clouds tried to flee.

"Oh? Weren't you going to seek revenge?" Zhang Lie's eyes lit up with stars. He certainly wasn't about to let his opponent escape.

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 stellar dragons soared through the air.

They rushed into the dark clouds, tearing them apart. The lightning manifested in a humanoid face, sounding like peals of thunder. "You'd better not try anything funny—I'm one of Cthaat's sons. Killing me would be going against all of Eternal Sun."

"Cthaat's son? It's not as if you're the first one I've killed." Zhang Lie smiled coldly as he snapped his fingers.

The stellar dragons all exploded, each with the force of a galaxy. A huge wave of energy spread out around him. There was no way the storm clouds could have survived such a massive explosion.

A bolt of lightning split apart the darkness, escaping from the energy of annihilation. Zhang Lie chased after it in a beam of light.

The lightning shouted, "If you kill me, my father will surely take revenge on my behalf! You'll perish given his might!"

"I've heard this far too many times by now. I killed your brother when he appeared—and if your father comes, I'll kill him too." The stellar claws tore apart the void, shattering the lightning and the core of Cthaat's son.

With the enemy dealt with, Zhang Lie turned to the gathering point that Hong Tianqi had constructed in the fourth realm, deep within a mountain.

The mountain was filled with caves and cellars which spread throughout its bulk. Anyone unfamiliar with the terrain would easily get lost.
