Chapter 1537: Far Too Boring When Zhang Lie first encountered Radiant Sun, because Bu Wentian was no match for him, the trial ended halfway through the fight. Zhang Lie never had a chance to see what Radiant Sun's follow-up techniques were before he dissipated. Despite the fact that Zhang Lie had passed the trial, he wasn't at all happy about it.
During the qualifiers, he then beat Radiant Sun's son, but it still didn't feel sufficient.
In other words, he wasn't satisfied just beating the son; he wanted to beat the father as well.
Radiant Sun's attack now perfectly continued the battle that had been terminated halfway in Zhang Lie's mind.
A raging shark emerged, manifesting a sword will that rose into the heavens, strong beyond human understanding, vast as the ocean.
The clash of sword techniques forced Radiant Sun back.
Radiant Sun changed tactics. Rather than a sword that could cut through everything, he focused on the aspect of flexibility. Once again, a screen of sword energy covered the air.
The huge sword had been unyielding and domineering; the soft sword was supple and flexible. These were two different extremes of swordplay.
The transformation of sword styles from one extreme to the polar opposite extreme seemed shockingly natural.
Radiant Sun had reached such a high level of insight that he could use his entire body like a sword.
A solar flare blossomed around him, infusing unadulterated sword energy into his techniques and making them even harder to block.
"[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.
Pitch-black genetic energy revolved around Zhang Lie like dark clouds, then exploded forth in his vicinity, swallowing up the solarfire and sword energy.
Radiant Sun's soft sword danced in the air, sketching out a solar storm.
"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade]!"
Zhang Lie punched forward. His black serpent attacked in a sinister, mysterious fashion, a perfect counter for Radiant Sun's soft sword.
Zhang Lie's black serpent clashed repeatedly against the solar vine with golden solarfire. The solar vine soared into the air. Solar energy emanated from it, transforming into a giant sun. A pillar of golden light shot down rays in the form of sword energy, bolstering him and augmenting his transformation.
As the solar vine struck, a giant sword fell from the skies, breaking through the cloud cover. It was reinforced by solar might, as though the sun itself were falling from the sky.
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.
The starlight's allure captivated all onlookers.
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. He defended with one open palm.
The ancient hall trembled as the altar cracked apart. Zhang Lie, surrounded by starlight, blocked the attack with just a single palm.
"I'm very disappointed."
Zhang Lie thought that this would be an intense fight, but it seemed that he had overestimated his opponent. Radiant Sun, with his strength restricted, was hardly as strong as he had anticipated. seaʀᴄh thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Radiant Sun was shocked. Radiant light emerged from his body. The solar vine that pierced through the cloud cover radiated with light. Tendrils and offshoots grew out of the main vine,
as though he had suddenly developed a few hundred avatars. Although they were no match for the main vine, each offshoot had at least half its strength.
The main vine and its offshoots, like titanic serpents, shot toward Zhang Lie.
Zhang Lie 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 apart heaven and earth and dicing up the vines.
The main vine struck down at Zhang Lie's head like a divine sword of legend, tearing apart the sky and the stars above.
"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade]!"
Zhang Lie's genetic energy condensed into a black dragon, whose scales were each a star.
The stars inlaid in its body formed a long stellar river, with galactic genetic energy shone with twinkling stars, which transformed into dragons that shot out alongside Zhang Lie's punch.
The subordinate vines that had been torn apart squirmed and grew rapidly until they transformed into golden figures, preparing a killing formation.
The divine vine's solarfire filled the air and fell in the form of a fiery rain. Zhang Lie's stellar dragons howled as they shot into the air and smashed into the vine.
Within moments, a wave of annihilation exploded around the dragon. Pitch-black energy swallowed everything in the vicinity like a storm at sea, covering up the sky.
The golden avatars that Radiant Sun had just manifested stumbled, grabbing ahold of the altar to maintain their balance and not be sucked away by the black hole to their heads.
The energy of annihilation grew rapidly after swallowing up the divine vine's solarfire. It attempted to devour and destroy everything in sight within the ancient hall.
Even the man in dark green robes, seated before the pillar of light, had to invoke his authority and grab the pillar of light to avoid being affected.
Golden light blazed from Radiant Sun, and hundreds of vines shone bright.
The wave of golden light was as though the sun had shot out a million rays, each glowing overwhelmingly brightly, splitting the void and the stars beyond, each a divine sword.
The swords crossed each other in the air, transforming into a huge blade of the sun.
The gigantic golden sword broke through the ceiling of the giant hall as it descended with overwhelming strength, splitting apart the growing storm of annihilation. Although the storm sapped it of some momentum, the sword continued descending swiftly toward Zhang Lie's head.
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.
The stellar dragons shot up to meet the sword. Energy of destruction exploded in the air, gradually weakening the sword's strength.
By the time the sword was about to reach Zhang Lie, he could shatter it with a punch.
The golden fragments of the former sword spilled all over, scattering around the ancient hall, each glittering like gold.
