Ultragene Warlord

moth was forced back two stumbling steps.
If he hadn ’t been prepared, the force of the explosion would have sent the heavy sword flying out of the golden mammoth ’s reach.

”[Light ’s Bulwark: Heavenfall]! ” Light exploded in the sky with such force that space itself began to warp.
Shockwaves roared through the air like thundering dragons.

Light-attuned genetic energy covered the skies and filled the entire space around Li Feng.
The golden mammoth ’s eyes narrowed.
”Just what are you doing? ”

Li Feng, struggling to contain all the light-attuned genetic energy pouring through the skies, replied slowly, ”You have your wuxia, and I have a man I need to catch up to.
He once told me not to emulate him, but rather to learn from him—to incorporate his techniques into my own.
I understand this, but when he shines so brightly in front of us, how can we resist the temptation to copy his success? ”

By this time, the dark clouds above them had been replaced by glittering brilliance.
Li Feng ’s strength covered the skies.
”But I think there are more than two options than to emulate or to learn.
No—I ’ll absorb his techniques and make them my own! ”

Li Feng was a hunter independent of Zhang Lie, with his own thoughts and his own principles.
Unlike the rest of Team Zenith, he chose to forge a different path.

”My techniques shall eclipse my captain ’s in strength! ” Li Feng punched forward, causing the genetic energy to pour down like a flood.
Thick, concentrated energy, like roaring dragons and galloping steeds, like sharp blades piercing heaven and earth, fell from the sky.

The golden mammoth concentrated all his strength on the blade and swung it in a wide arc, attempting to dissipate the genetic energy around him.
However, that sword energy was drowned out in the face of Li Feng ’s genetic energy.

Li Feng ’s technique flattened the land until the valley itself became level ground.

The golden mammoth, caught under the onslaught of energy, suffered grievous injuries.
However, his long period of training, of dedicating itself to the art of the sword, bore fruit.
Despite the attack, he had stubbornly lived on, though his injuries were so serious that he couldn ’t even move his legs.

The golden mammoth murmured weakly, ”To be able to die to a strong hunter like you—I ’ll have no regrets. ”

Li Feng didn ’t glance back.
He flew off into the air.

The golden mammoth gritted his teeth as he slowly got back to his feet.
”Why not strike me? Am I not worth your time?! ”

Li Feng rolled his eyes.
”Do you want to die? ”

The golden mammoth shook his head.
”No, but neither do I want to live with shame! ”

”The king of this world commanded you to invade the draconian world, but you refused him, didn ’t you? ”

The golden mammoth: …

If not for the golden mammoth ’s refusal, the silvery-white mammoth would hardly have been the one leading the charge against the humans.
After all, the golden mammoth was the most powerful in the herd after the king of the realm itself.

The golden mammoth didn ’t deny Li Feng ’s charge.
He grimaced.
”I have very good friends among the humans.
I can ’t change the herdleader ’s mind, but I can choose to obey my own principles. ”

”In that case, there ’s no need for me to kill you, ” Li Feng explained.

The golden mammoth called out to his back, ”I know I don ’t have the ability to stop you, and it ’s rather thick-skinned of me for me to be making this request, but if you manage to beat the herdleader, would you mind sparing the life of my kin? ”

Li Feng thought for a moment.
”If you tell me where the herd is, or lead me to it, I ’ll consider your request. ”
