Ultragene Warlord Chapter 914: A One-Sided Slaughter

Chapter 914: A One-Sided Slaughter

Despite the revelation, Zhang Lie’s face was calm. Black genetic energy erupted around him.

“[Fists of the Silent Sea: Hundred Dragons Soaring]!” Zhang Lie cocked back his left arm, channeling his genetic energy into the attack, and sent its full force at the bug king.

Howling with the force of thunder, a horde of over a hundred black dragons flew toward the bug king, directed by Zhang Lie’s punch. The dragons were fierce and domineering, and all hundred of them boasted the power of annihilation.

The black dragons clashed against the bug king’s reproduction of Zhang Lie’s boundless ocean, careening through it and destroying the bug king’s technique.

Fang Yi hadn’t lost to the inferior reproduction of his technique; Zhang Lie certainly wasn’t about to lose to his own. Furthermore, [Fists of the Silent Sea: Hundred Dragons Soaring] was an evolved version of [Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]. The bug king was foolish to think that his inferior copy would be able to win out in such a confrontation.

In its left hand, the bug king evoked thunder; in its right, a howling gale. As the bug king clasped both hands together, the wind and storm combined into one entity. The storm crackled with lightning. ?A wind dragon and storm tiger manifested simultaneously, with an imposing aura that seemed to shake the skies. It erupted in an ink-green cyclone.

Compared to the first time the bug king cast the technique, the bug king had clearly intuited the fundamental concepts behind it. The bug king’s use of the skill indicated that it had a deep understanding of the principles in play.

The ink-green cyclone swept up Zhang Lie’s black dragons, which burst apart in another wave of annihilation. The skies shook.

That explosion triggered a chain reaction. The other black dragons in the vicinity likewise exploded, dying the sky black.

Upon witnessing the burst of energy heading straight ?for him, the bug king’s gaze grew fearful. As it recalled what had happened to itself the first time it had been struck by the technique, it flinched and hastily stepped back.

A single blood dragon had been devastating to the bug king; this chain reaction of black dragons surely had to be worse. As more and more dragons exploded in the air, a haze of black covered up the heavens. The energy of annihilation that gathered in the air began to suck up its surroundings.

Fortunately, the disciples of the Zenith Dojo were now well aware of the enormity of Zhang Lie’s attacks, and they had retreated far from the battlefield.

Hong Xi asked, “Are we far enough yet?”

Yang Ze replied, “We’d better head a little further out so that our captain can really let loose. I’m not frightened, of course—just worried that I might obstruct our captain!”

Fang Yi gave Yang Ze a thumbs up. “Exactly my thoughts, Yang Ze!”

Li Feng nodded. “Right, we’d best head further out. Who knows what sort of techniques our captain has up his sleeve?”

They did want to observe Zhang Lie’s battle, but they had to make sure that their lives were safe first.

As Zhang Lie’s opponent, the bug king was unable to retreat like the disciples of the Zenith Dojo.

A black wave of annihilation caught up to the bug king like a nightmare. Fearful of being sucked into the technique again, the bug king’s body split into over a hundred clones, each simultaneously real and illusory.

Zhang Lie blinked. “Is this Sun Xiaowu’s [Blinding Flash]?”

However, each clone was easily dispersed by the wave of annihilation.

The bug king continued to flee. A series of ink-green dragons manifested around him, shooting out toward the wave like raindrops in a storm.

Li Feng, observing the fight from afar, cried out, “That’s my [Light Dragon’s Remnants]!”

The light dragons were unable to resist the energy of annihilation, and they were instantly dispelled as the wave struck them.

The bug king used yet another technique. Hundreds of ink-green serpents, burning with incandescent flame, appeared in the air.

“Looks like your [Dance of the Incandescent Wyrm],” Fang Yi murmured to Li Feng.

Even these serpents were completely destroyed by the wave of annihilation.

Li Feng shook his head. “The bug king’s attempts are fruitless. Even a hundred copies of me wouldn’t be an opponent for our captain. What good could my techniques do against him? What’s more, he hasn’t grasped the essence of those techniques. The composition of genetic energy is all wrong!”

The bug king punched forward. Waves suddenly appeared in the sky, shimmering like a mirage. Spatial fluctuations rippled as an ink-green shark shot forth.

Yang Ze shook his head. “Is it time for my technique, then?”

It was equally useless against Zhang Lie’s wave of annihilation. As the wave drew closer and closer, the bug king tried even harder to flee, but to no avail.

A patch of darkness had almost overwhelmed the bug king when a black serpent materialized behind itself, 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 bug king invoked Zhang Lie’s [Fists of the Silent Sea: Fade], but to no avail. In light of Zhang Lie’s absolute strength, the bug king seemed like nothing more than a small bug, whose fate was to be crushed between Zhang Lie’s fingers.

The bug king was swallowed up by the wave of annihilation, which once again contracted into a pinhole, then vanished.

The bug king did not survive its second encounter with the void.

Deep in an unexplored sector of the universe, a certain lifeform rested on its throne. Suddenly, it tightened its grip around the food in its hand, causing sticky purple fluid to cover its hands. However, the lifeform paid no attention to the mass.

Its eyes were glowing with anger. “A larva with the potential to become a true bug king, slaughtered almost immediately after it was born…?”

If any disciple of the Zenith Dojo were present, they would have noticed an undeniable similarity between the lifeform seated on the throne and the bug king Zhang Lie had just killed.

Unlike the cockroach-like humanoid bugs of Mars, however, this lifeform was more like a scorpion. A scorpion’s stinger grew out of its back, and its limbs were more like those of a locust than a human’s.

“I don’t know who or what you are, nor where in the universe you hail, but the moment I, Akama, identify your presence, you shall experience my wrath.”

Akama strode up to a window, from which it could see the void of space. This “window” was part of a gigantic bug’s compound eye, within which Akama was traveling.

The gigantic bug was currently flying through space, and it was so large that a single one of its claws could reduce a planet into rubble—and there were millions of such bugs in the swarm under Akama’s control.
