Ultragene Warlord

Zhang Lie couldn ’t help disappoint Li Qianlin.
”The evolution won ’t be as straightforward as you think, ” he warned.

”Really? Is there some risk involved? ”

”Not just mere risk—have you already forgotten what I told you?

We ’ll be facing repercussions immediately.
The current superior worlds will attack us in reprisal—look! ”

Zhang Lie pointed toward the sky.

Li Qianlin glanced in the direction he indicated, only to see a huge eye appearing high in the sky.

It was abnormally large, and its pupil looked like a portal into an abyss of blood.
Many of the guests stared at it in shock, only to cry out in pain as their eyes began to cry tears of blood.

The moment Li Qianlin looked into the eye, she found a fountain of madness pouring into her brain.
Her sight was immediately glazed in a layer of red.
She saw a bloody sky, a bloody sea, a monster that lay just below the surface of the sea—but before she could glean its true appearance, her eyes began to bleed as though they had been burned by fire.

Zhang Lie hurriedly shielded Li Qianlin.
”Don ’t look into the eye.
You ’ll go crazy! ”

Li Qianlin shivered and called out to the audience, ”Don ’t look at the sky! ”

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

However, her warning came too late.
The guests who had already done so were screaming and crying as they poked out their own eyeballs and placed them in their mouths.

Li Qianlin glanced all around her in alarm and fear.

”Just what is that eye?! ”

”Weak lifeforms can ’t look at superior kings of the realm directly.
Otherwise, terrible phenomena will appear—aliens who grow that strong will be able to affect weaker lifeforms with their mere presence alone, ” Zhang Lie explained.

Everyone within a hundred kilometers of the venue would be able to see the eye, and they would immediately go crazy as a result.

None of them were as lucky to have someone like Zhang Lie around to block their gaze, nor were they as strong.
Many of the inhabitants of the eastern world went mad immediately.

Within the event venue, Li Qianlin cried out in shock.
”you mean that that eye in the sky is from a superior king of the realm! ”

Zhang Lie pointed at one of his eyes.
”Not the king itself—just one of its eyes. ”

Li Qianlin glanced all around her at the chaos that had ensued.
”All this because of an eye…?! ”

”Anyone below a certain threshold of strength will go crazy the moment they see a single part of such a king ’s body—not even an eye.
Even a strand of hair would be sufficient.
In severe cases, they might even go mad.
Just look over there. ”

One guest that had gone crazy was turning into a bulbous ball of flesh and meat.
Dozens of heads and dozens of arms grew out of it, each head with just one lone eye and a mouth—and extending further and further from its main body.

With a wave of Zhang Lie ’s hand, the monsters in the venue all burst apart.
Flesh and blood scattered like raindrops.

”Once the transformation begins, there ’s no hope for them, ” Zhang Lie continued calmly.

”What are we to do? Why has the eye of a superior king appeared here?! ”

Zhang Lie seemed rather nonplussed.
”You ’re panicking already? ”

Li Qianlin blinked a few times, then sucked in a deep breath.
”You ’re right, I can ’t panic now.
I ’m the princess of the east, and my father has to concentrate on merging the two worlds.
I have to stabilize the situation! ”

Zhang Lie scratched his head.
”No, you ’re misunderstanding me.
This is just the beginning. ”

”What?! ”

Li Qianlin was staring uncomprehendingly at Zhang Lie when the eye in the sky closed, leaving behind a gigantic hole—a wormhole into another world.

Figures of blood crawled out from within the wormhole as Li Qianlin gasped in shock.
”What are those? ”

”The army of the superior world. ” Zhang Lie peered at the bloody figures.
”From the xuluo world, I believe. ” Zhang Lie had seen their like before in his past life, during the great defense against the death spirits ’ incursion.

They were fearless fighters who advanced without any regard for their lives.

”Why has an army from a superior world appeared here? ” Li Qianlin wasn ’t the only one who was thinking that—all the guests were.

Zhang Lie rolled his eyes.
”Isn ’t it obvious? ” They were invading the world!

”But why? ” Li Qianlin asked, refusing to believe her eyes.

”To consume the energy released by the world ’s evolution, of course. ”

A world that had initiated the process of evolution into a superior world was simultaneously at its weakest and with the richest rewards for any invaders.
It was far from able to defend itself against other superior worlds, and its energy would greatly enhance whatever world claimed it for its own.

A humongous three-headed, six-armed monstrosity clambered out of the wormhole.
Its heads each had three eyes and looked like a raging hog.
Its hair and beard were made of flame.

It sucked in a deep breath with all three heads as it stretched.
Its middle head sprayed out a burst of flame as it guffawed, ”Ah, the sweet scent of an evolving world! ”

The moment it appeared, everyone present felt pressure akin to a mountain pressing down on their bodies.

The head on its left said, ”The air is fresh, and there ’s nothing weird about the weather.
We ’re lucky that this world seems so normal. ”

The head on its right said, ”No drizzling rain, no ten suns in the sky—those would have greatly diminished the strength of our army. ”

The head in the middle rolled its eyes and said, ”Among the three thousand worlds, how many worlds like that do you think could ever evolve? ”

There were quite a few worlds among the three thousand that had terrible environments—for instance, among the six worlds that the members of Team Zenith had invaded, the world of frost and ice and the primordial demon ’s world had the most challenging environments.

Of the three thousand worlds, perhaps a thousand had such crippling environments, and only a rare few among those thousand would ever evolve to become a superior world.
