Ultragene Warlord

These genetic lifeforms were all superior- and peak-grade.
Genetic lifeforms would indeed be able to evolve more quickly by fighting or devouring each other, but surely not daily.

Zhang Lie didn ’t urgently need so many disaster-grade lifeforms at the moment, but they would play a more active role once he began his research in earnest.
But what would he do during the downtime?

In the second realm, Zhu had resolved this problem with crustacean-type lifeforms that grew and reproduced rapidly.

The Shouyin had managed to rear so many superior-, peak-, and disaster-grade lifeforms by having peak-grade ones eat superior ones, superior ones eat mutated ones, and mutated ones eat regular ones.
In doing so, they were roughly able to maintain a dynamic equilibrium.

Zhang Lie had two choices in front of him.
The first was to find food suitable for these lifeforms, which he rejected almost offhand.

Zhang Lie had no clues as to where to start.
He knew that the third realm had to possess something suitable, but not where—and he didn ’t want to devote any time to do so.
He supposed he could return to the Shouyin world and bring back the regular- and mutated-grade lifeforms there, but if he were to do so, the draconian sage would  surely fly into a rage.

The reason he had been willing to accept so many superior- and peak-grade lifeforms into the world was solely on account of Zhang Lie.
If Zhang Lie were to bring back so many regular- and mutated-grade lifeforms as well, the draconian world wouldn ’t be able to support them all.
The draconian world would have to be renamed the world of genetic lifeforms, then.

Supporting so many superior- and peak-grade lifeforms meant that the population of regular- and mutated-grade lifeforms was truly enormous; the total number of superior- and peak-grade lifeforms, relative to regular- and mutated-grade ones, was no more than 1%.

If there were a million superior-grade lifeforms and a hundred thousand peak-grade lifeforms, then there had to be at least ten million mutated-grade lifeforms and a hundred million regular-grade ones.

The draconian world didn ’t have the resources to accommodate so many lifeforms, not unless it merged with even more worlds.
However, if it merged with too many, the draconian world would evolve into a superior world.

Zhang Lie didn ’t want the draconian world to evolve at this point—not because Zhang Lie was afraid of the older superior worlds, but rather because trouble would keep coming once the draconian world got onto the superior worlds ’ radar.

At this point, Zhang Lie wanted to quietly research the level of strength beyond disaster-grade.

The second option was, as he had considered, to allow the genetic lifeforms to fight among themselves and for the victor to devour the loser.
However, this method would deplete the supply of genetic lifeforms very quickly.

A million superior-grade and a hundred thousand peak-grade lifeforms seemed like a lot, but this approach would deplete the supply of those lifeforms ridiculously quickly.
They would be all gone within fifty days.

”I don ’t have a better option, so I guess I ’ll have to arrange that for now… ”

Zhang Lie couldn ’t help but reminisce about his disaster-grade farm in the second realm.

After dealing with the genetic lifeforms, Zhang Lie began his research.

He summoned Red Comet, then retrieved the xuluo world ’s energy from his storage-type soulshard and imbued Red Comet with it.

Red Comet ’s exoskeleton was no longer blood-red.
It now gleamed with light of five colors, representing the evolution in Red Comet ’s status as a lifeform—but the evolution stopped almost as quickly as it started, as though there were some bottleneck that had stalled Red Comet ’s progress.

Zhang Lie frowned.
”A simple application of a superior world ’s energy isn ’t enough to lead to a breakthrough, then? ”

It was only expected.
Genetic lifeforms had to fight with each other and devour their opponents in order to evolve.
A superior world ’s energy only served to lubricate the process and make it go more smoothly.

Xing Ying and Ren Kunjing flew over.
Ren Kunjing called out with a smile, ”I heard that someone brought a huge quantity of lifeforms through the wormhole, and I knew that it had to be you, champion of mankind! ”

Xing Ying glanced at all the superior- and peak-grade lifeforms in the vicinity, touched by what Zhang Lie had done.
It was evident that Zhang Lie had gone to the world where he had been defeated and killed the king of the realm there.

A quick look at tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

If not for the king ’s death, Zhang Lie could hardly have brought all these lifeforms with him.

Xing Ying knelt, one knee touching the ground.
”Champion of mankind, I, Xing Ying, vow to go wherever I can be of use to you! ”

With formless power, Zhang Lie prevented Xing Ying from kneeling fully down, then lifted him up.
”I only did what I should.
You fought for me, so of course I ’d defend you. ”

Xing Ying nodded, touched by Zhang Lie ’s words.

Zhang Lie asked, ”Are you largely recovered? ”

Xing Ying rotated his arms.
”Thanks to the special medicine provided by the members of Team Zenith, my injuries recovered in just a few days.
I can fight on the battlefield for you again, my liege! ”

”No, no, there ’s no need.
Get a few more days of rest, and make sure you recover fully from your injuries. ”

Ren Kunjing glanced at the sea of genetic lifeforms behind Zhang Lie.
”Zhang Lie, do you have any plans with those lifeforms behind you? ”

Ren Kunjing really didn ’t know what to say.

Other hunters were desperately hunting down superior- and peak-grade lifeforms—Zhang Lie was feeding a million of them.
Other hunters were trying their best to search for and kill disaster-grade lifeforms at great expense and risk—Zhang Lie had thirty docile ones right here.
When had disaster-grade lifeforms become so commonplace?

Zhang Lei asked, ”Ren Kunjing, there are more superior- and peak-grade lifeforms with the other groups of warlords that have been dispatched, aren ’t there? ”

Ren Kunjing nodded.
”The four warlord parties picked up quite a number of superior- and peak-grade lifeforms during their invasion. ”

The reason the Jinghun had been able to host so many superior- and peak-grade lifeforms was by waging war and allowing the lifeforms to eat their fill on the battlefield.

Zhang Lie instructed, ”Summon all the superior- and peak-grade lifeforms back. ”

Ren Kunjing asked, ”It looks like you ’re planning something big.
Do you need my race ’s assistance? ”

Zhang Lie shook his head.
”No, but I ’ll call on you when I do need it. ”

”Very well.
I ’ll send a message immediately. ”

Back in the second realm, Zhang Hanxiang asked, ”Yun Bing, do you really intend to ascend now? ”

Yun Bing replied, ”Together with you, yes. ”

”The kingdom of Limit will survive without a princess like me, but without a prime minister like you… ”

”As Zhang Lie once said, the kingdom of Limit in the second realm should serve only as a springboard.
We can ’t pin all our hopes to this kingdom; we should look farther.
I ’ve handled the kingdom for over a year, and everything has stabilized now.
Once Hong Xiao and the third generation of disciples from the dojo ascend, they ’ll become the new pillars of the kingdom.
Do you understand? ”
