Ultragene Warlord

Zhang Lie ’s aura rose rapidly as the swirling water-attuned genetic energy and spatial force condensed and compressed around his arms, sucking in the nearby space.
A whirlwind spun into existence around them, scattering the troops and mounts that the king of the west had gathered.

As Zhang Lie punched forward, that energy erupted in a flood in mid-air, twisting the entire world and shattering any semblance of natural law.
The howling winds, like uncaged beasts, destroyed everything in sight— and this was just one blow from Zhang Lie.

One blow was sufficient to direct the course of the entire battle.

Before Zhang Lie lay patches of destruction, as though an apocalypse had just struck the world.
Large swathes of superior- and peak-grade lifeforms had been sucked up into the whirlwind and through the air.

The troops of the western world were unable to imagine an alien who could wreak such destruction.
Even the aftermath of his blows weren ’t something they could withstand.

The weaker among them were struck by the ripples of force until they vomited out blood, and even the stronger ones wouldn ’t be able to stand being sucked into the whirlwind.
Even the aliens supporting Zhang Lie were shocked by the impact.

They had witnessed his punch once before, but whenever they did so, they grew more and more frightened.

Zhang Lie ’s fist was enough to cause an apocalypse all by himself.

Fortunately, given their prior experience, all the aliens had retreated in time, leaving only a few idiots behind who were sucked into the whirlwind.
Even the aftermath of the attack was no joke.

Xing Ying stared openmouthed at Zhang Lie.
He, who was considered among the upper echelon of warlords, was still nothing compared to Zhang Lie.

He was certain that Zhang Lie ’s punch would be able to kill over ninety percent of the known warlords, and even the top ten on the ranking might be incapable of defending against such a blow unscathed.

”And he ’s still 90th on the rankings? It ’s an insult to us all… ”

If Zhang Lie really were 90th with this strength, any warlord above him had to be incomparable ashamed of themselves.

Lightning split the whirlwind.
Duan Zisuan emerged from the attack standing.
”Is this your full strength? Just this? ”

Despite Duan Zisuan ’s words, the blood trickling out of his mouth was testament to the power behind Zhang Lie ’s fists.

Duan Zisuan ’s entire body crackled with lightning as he shot toward Zhang Lie again.
His claws were like those of an eagle, and the entire sky seemed to be filled with sharp bolts.

An attack stronger than roaring winds or howling storms approached Zhang Lie.
The afterimages of the western king ’s claws overlapped, compounding the strength of the attack, and he seemed to have the ability of drawing more lightning from the heavens to aid himself.

Xing Ying ’s face turned pale-white.
Despite being one of the top warlords, he was feeling a sense of fear upon watching Zhang Lie and the king of the west fight.

Duan Zisuan ’s claws were stronger and faster than any attack he possessed, and he doubted he could last any longer than a second against him.

After all, this was the strength of a king of the realm of a large world.
Even he would be rendered useless in light of this attack, but Zhang Lie seemed capable of bearing its brunt easily.

Zhang Lie ’s fists rippled with energy.
Streams of water revolved more and more quickly around his wrist, augmented by spatial force and the power of [Mirrored Refraction].

Zhang Lie pummeled the king so quickly his fists left afterimages behind, each of which seemed to refract light.
Hundreds and thousands of these afterimages seemed to attack at once, preventing the western king ’s lightning from surrounding Zhang Lie.

The two combatants clashed in mid-air, releasing so much energy the environment was vanishing bit by bit.

Mirrored light struck like a scythe; lightning like a spear.
All the remaining forces, be they supporters of the king of the west or the aliens coming to Zhang Lie ’s aid, stopped fighting and retreated far, far away.

The battle was like a disaster descending on the world.
Just mere proximity alone would cause damage; the two  combatants ’ level of strength was in a different dimension entirely.

”[Syzygy]! ” A wheel of black sun appeared behind Zhang Lie ’s back, and blood-red moonlight by his feet.
Zhang Lie ’s attacks grew stronger and stronger, and rays of light emanated from him in bursts.

As the fight proceeded, Duan Zisuan found his combat ability decreasing more and more, as though his body was being corroded away.
His rich combat experience allowed him to identify the problem near-immediately: the domain of moonlight spreading from Zhang Lie.

Just as Duan Zisuan tried to retreat to escape from Zhang Lie ’s domain, Zhang Lie struck.
His fist caused a geyser of water to erupt, shattering space around him.
”[Fists of the Silent Sea: Quake]! ”

Duan Zisuan blocked the attack with his claws, forming a storm shield.
Zhang Lie ’s punch struck the shield and caused it to explode, sending Duan Zisuan flying out into the distance.

Duan Zisuan barely stabilized himself in mid-air, then used his authority to control the lightning crackling through the skies.

”I invoke the authority of the king of the realm to inflict divine punishment! ”

A pillar of lightning fell from the sky, turning everything white for a split second.

”[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]! ” Zhang Lie feared nothing.
He responded with another technique, one with such strength it made the very air warp.

The fist tore the pillar of blinding lightning apart even as Duan Zisuan invoked another such blow with his authority.
This pillar was even thicker than the last—but this time, the lightning struck Duan Zisuan himself, rather than Zhang Lie.

The spectators watching the battle from below gasped.

Xing Ying shouted, ”The king of the realm missed?! ”

How could Duan Zisuan miss such an attack? He had done so intentionally, sending the energy of lightning through his claws, then brandishing his claws at Zhang Lie.
The shadow of two gigantic claws which tore the surrounding space apart covered the spectators.

As Duan Zisuan swept downward with his claws, two runic tablets landed around him.

”[Rune: Control]! ” Black ripples emanated from the two gravity-altering tablets, forming a localized region of distorted gravity.
They began to resonate as one, sending ripples that melded with the sky and caused Duan Zisuan to stumble.
He immediately rectified the natural flow of gravity using his power as the king of the realm.

However, he was shocked to no end.
To Zhang Lie, the runes engraved on the runic tablets were ancient, incomprehensible script, but to him, the runes formed an embodiment of natural law.
