Ultragene Warlord

After he finished the absorption process, the sage sent him back to his residence, whereupon he provided Zhang Lie with information about the final disaster-grade lifeform in the newly combined world.

”The last disaster-grade lifeform is originally from the Blackwind world.
The Chinese parasol forest within was half-destroyed because of a battle between the king of the realm and another man whom we shall not here name. ”

Zhang Lie rolled his eyes.
”Do you intend to blame this on me? ”

Zhang Lie had no intention of acknowledging responsibility: the forest had been burned down by the Blackwind king!

”The disaster-grade lifeform of the forest is apparently from the same ancestor as the Blackwind clan, and was once on good terms with both the Blackwind clan and the draconians.
I have quite a bit of information on the lifeform: a white phoenix.
It has chosen to live in seclusion in the Blackwind world, and as far as we know, it ’s an ancestor of the Blackwind clan—or at least the Blackwind themselves think so. ”

”They think their ancestor is a genetic lifeform? ” Zhang Lie seemed astounded.
”Are they crazy? ”

”I ’m not familiar with the details, but according to the Blackwind clan, their clan arose as a result of one of their forefathers coupling with the white phoenix… ”

Zhang Lie seemed unsettled by the idea.
”The Blackwind might consider themselves mongrels, but I ’ll hardly subscribe to the idea. ”

If that disaster-grade lifeform were truly an ancestor of the Blackwind clan, why didn ’t the white phoenix help them when Zhang Lie was slaughtering them all?

Zhang Lie shook his head.
”Send me over.
It doesn ’t matter what connection it has with the Blackwind clan. ”

With a wave of a hand, the draconian sage wrapped Zhang Lie up in spatial energy and whisked him away.
The next moment, he appeared in the Chinese parasol forest.

This was the site of the battle between the Blackwind king and Zhang Lie.
After the battle, a large swathe of trees had been uprooted where they stood, and the Blackwind king had even burned much of the forest down.

Fortunately, about half the trees still remained.
The draconian sage sent Zhang Lie to the largest remaining tree in the forest.

Zhang Lie glanced around him.
”Where ’s this supposed white phoenix? I don ’t sense any disaster-grade aura at all… ”

Was the sage mistaken? Had he made a mistake after chauffeuring Zhang Lie around for so long? That was impossible—the authority of the king of the realm should have perfect control over incoming and outgoing teleportation.

Zhang Lie glanced all around him in search of something amiss before his gaze finally landed on the crown of the tree.

”What an interesting hiding technique… ” Atop the highest branches of the largest Chinese parasol tree was a gigantic translucent egg.
”Even spiritual perception can ’t sense it, let alone visual perception. ”

Visual stealth alone would do nothing against Zhang Lie; what really mattered was spiritual stealth.
This effect was comparable to Zhang Lie ’s disaster-grade mistmeld clam soulshard—no, it was even better.

The mistmeld clam ’s soulshard was only able to hypnotize a target, while the egg affected the target ’s spiritual senses directly.
If not for Zhang Lie ’s remarkable spiritual integrity and his belief in the draconian sage ’s abilities, he might well have been fooled.

”Looks like it ’s still asleep… ” Zhang Lie smirked.
He clenched a fist tightly as spatial fluctuations gathered around it.
Blue genetic energy condensed around Zhang Lie ’s arms, causing a frightening aura to descend on the world.
The skies began to darken, and a fish the size of a whale materialized in the air.
