Lake?” Zhan Lie hurriedly asked.

“I believe so, Captain.
Is something the matter?” Given Zhang Lie's reaction, it seemed as though this was an event of some importance, though Zhou Ying couldn't understand how.

Zhang Lie had no time to explain anything to her.
“Zhou Ying, return to the Galewind settlement immediately.
Get everyone to evacuate as quickly as possible, then return to the real world and warn all the hunters in the first realm to return to the real world.
Finally, inform Commander Su Feng to spread the word to all Chinese hunters and even hunters worldwide: for the moment, do not enter the first realm.
A disaster is on its way!”

Zhou Ying's eyes widened.
She still didn't know what was going on—how could a few bubbles herald such an occurrence?!

“Captain, I—”

“Enough! I don't have time to explain this to you.
At the very least, get everyone from the Zenith Dojo out and spread the warning far and wide.
Whether or not they listen, we've done our part.

It would take him far too long to explain just how extreme a disaster-grade lifeform's strength was. 

Zhou Ying rushed off into the distance, whereas Zhang Lie himself followed the river up toward the Galewind Lake.
By the time he arrived there, he could see no sign and sense no trace of the disaster-grade lifeform, but he was certain that it would appear in the first realm from within the lake, given the unusual bubbles that were rising up from its depths.
This was a clear sign that space was growing thin around the region.

Perhaps the disaster-grade lifeform was, at this very moment, fighting for its life in a higher realm.
Given the reports he recalled from his past life, the disaster-grade lifeform had appeared in the dimensional world bearing serious injuries, as though it had previously been part of a fight.

Zhang Lie had no interest in the sort of being that would be able to wound a disaster-grade lifeform to this extent; at the very least, he was certain he had no ability to survive an encounter with such a creature.
He was simply hoping to take advantage of the disaster-grade lifeform's heavily wounded and weakened appearance to see if he could kill it and reap the benefits for doing so.

His next step was therefore to set up traps for this lifeform all around the battlefield.
As a disaster-grade lifeform, it would be immune to most physical attacks, and even spiritual attacks would need to exceed a certain threshold to be able to damage it.

Even Zhang Lie would be hard-pressed to break past its defenses, but he had come prepared with a series of potions that would be particularly useful in this fight.

With the blood-attuned reagents he had tasked the members of Team Zenith to find, he had concocted a few potions specifically against this disaster-grade lifeform, which would crystallize in its body and restrict the rate at which it could gather genetic energy.

Zhang Lie blocked off the outlet to the lake, then began pouring all his potions into the Galewind Lake, dyeing it a bloody red.
