Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1228: Quite Interesting

At that moment, space shattered.

The confluence of three different types of energy had caused too much stress in the local area. Yang Ze's projection was destroyed entirely, and countless cracks spread through the pocket dimension.

The cracks spread into the deeper layers of space, causing them to shake violently and crack as well. Yang Ze dove into ever deeper layers.

The energy of annihilation eventually lost its momentum on the eleventh layer, and Yang Ze sucked in a deep breath of relief. However, even the twelfth layer was filled with cracks; it was evident just how strong the explosion had been.

Before Yang Ze could calm down, a frightening wave of sword energy shot toward him.

Yang Ze's eyes widened as he defended himself with water-attuned genetic energy.

"The Boundless Blade: Sea Serpent]!"

His sword morphed into a sea serpent, pale blue in color, with gills on either side of its body, its scales like crystalline shards of ice. It surged forward, swiping its claws. It bit apart the sword energy, but surfing over the sword energy was a pale blue shark.

The shark opened its maw wide and bit a huge chunk off the dragon. Genetic energy exploded at the point of impact.

Frightening water-attuned genetic energy ravaged the deeper layers of space. The eleventh layer, which was already filled with cracks, was shredded as well.

Despite the fact that the energy of annihilation hadn't managed to hurt Yang Ze, it had opened a route to the deeper layers of space for Zhang Lie.

Zhang Lie stepped into the twelfth layer and called out, "I'm coming for you, Yang Ze!"

As he stepped into high-dimensional space, Zhang Lie transformed.

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.

Yang Ze tried to escape into the thirteenth layer, but before he could do so, a bloody beam appeared before him. Zhang Lie had caught up in the blink of an eye.

Yang Ze might have been the better spatial manipulator, but Zhang Lie was clearly faster.

The next moment, Yang Ze was kicked flying—at which point he finally managed to scamper into the thirteenth layer.

As he did so, he could hear a crack coming from the barrier between the twelfth and thirteenth layers of space, which was being breached.

The crack expanded as the noise grew louder. Finally, with a huge crash, a hole opened up, and a horde of howling black dragons appeared in sight.

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

Zhang Lie had managed to break down the barrier into the thirteenth layer of space by brute force.

The high-dimensional layers of space began to reverberate. Dozens of black dragons flew toward Yang Ze, each bearing significant energy of annihilation.

Yang Ze rapidly grew alarmed as he dodged their attacks with his movement techniques.

"[The Boundless Blade: Nine-Headed Hydra]!"

Genetic energy exploded from Yang Ze and manifested in the form of a nine-headed hydra, which sprayed out nine breaths of sword energy.

The black dragons struck by the breath attack exploded in a burst of annihilation, setting off a chain reaction that quickly took down the hydra.

The sword energy that made up the hydra temporarily formed a barrier against the explosions, giving Yang Ze enough time to escape into deeper layers of space.

As he did so, however, Zhang Lie chased quickly after him, tearing apart the barriers between ever deeper layers—and at a faster rate than he was able to traverse them.

Yang Ze ran, and ran, and ran. In the end, he was forced into the eighteenth layer, which had just been restored by the will of the world. Yang Ze turned around. "Captain, you're too strong."

Zhang Lie stepped out of the broken barrier between the seventeenth and eighteenth layers. Despite his haggard appearance, Yang Ze's eyes were still shining brightly. "However, when fighting in such a deep layer of space, I think I stand a good chance!"

"[The Boundless Blade: Hundred-Headed Hydra]!"

Yang Ze's genetic energy manifested in the form of an astounding hundred-headed hydra.

As he drew on spatial force, the hydra sprayed out a hundred simultaneous beams of sword energy, pale blue genetic energy, and compressed spatial force from a high-dimensional layer of space.

Whereas Yang Ze's attacks were boosted, Zhang Lie was suppressed to some extent. Yang Ze was very familiar with high-dimensional space and could negate that suppression.

Yang Ze hadn't been fleeing just because he was trying to avoid an inevitable demise; he had constantly been searching for an opportunity to strike back, to lure Zhang Lie ever deeper.

He was never one for straight-up fights, and would far rather use his brain and prepare in advance.

Zhang Lie nodded. "Good strategy, but not everything will play out the way you want it to. [The Boundless Blade: the River Lethe]!"

The temperature had dropped to sub-zero values, and a strong wind buffeted the arena. Blood-colored frost appeared around them.

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.

Thousands of serpents blocked the hundred breaths of sword energy. The bitter cold froze the hydra and corroded Yang Ze's genetic energy.

Yang Ze was shocked that Zhang Lie's attack was so devastating that it could even freeze the eighteenth layer of space solid.

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

As the netherworld river exploded, pitch-black genetic energy spread all over. A huge ocean of genetic energy swamped the eighteenth layer. Waves surged forward, sounding like peals of thunder, like stampeding hooves.

The surface of the sea frothed with angry waves, like dragons emerging with the tide. The entire sea roiled, and lightning crackled amidst the void. Countless serpents swam across the raging sea as lightning flashed ominously overhead, a scene right out of an apocalypse.

As Zhang Lie struck, an underworld river hurtled into existence, roaring into the sea. The sword energy roiled like black waves.

Even so, all the serpents passed harmlessly through Yang Ze's body...
