Chapter 1589: Battle of the Hundred Seas
Chapter 1589: Battle of the Hundred Seas
The sea roared, the wind howled. Huge waves surged up from the sea of spacetime, crushing everything in their path.
Even the splashes of water that resulted possessed incredible destructive ability, but Zhang Lie's netherworld sea was a different matter entirely.
The pitch-black genetic energy covered up the heavens. Waves surged forward, sounding like peals of thunder, like stampeding hooves.
The two seas struck each other time and again, round after round, each collision sending shockwaves of immense energy. Even so, victory had yet to be decided.
"[The Boundless Blade: Dragon's Wrath]!"
Guicang unleashed a barrage of sword energy in the form of a stellar dragon.
The dragon's howls shook heaven and earth. Pitch-black genetic energy rose up, forming huge waves and countless stellar dragons that crashed into the sea of spacetime.
Out of the sea of spacetime manifested thousands of courageous soldiers attacking in force, clashing against the stellar dragons.
Zhang Lie's sword transcended spacetime.
His illusory stellar dragon strikes manifested into reality in his hands.
This was the greatest treasure he had obtained from the Galactic Rising Stars Cup, imparting a deeper sense of reality to his sword techniques that could manifest energy and will in the physical world.
This was a frightening ability.
A single clash cut apart thousands of spacetime soldiers, their battalion wiped out by the stellar dragons' starlight. The energy of spacetime dissipated.
Zhang Lie's sword was so overwhelming that even spacetime couldn't do anything about it. Space and time were both vanquished by his attacks.
Cthaat howled loudly as the pitch-black sea parted into five portions.
One portion was pitch-black and otherwise ordinary; one portion was composed of the energy of annihilation; one portion was composed of spatial energy; one portion was composed of temporal energy; and the final portion glowed with starlight, like a stellar sea.
This final portion had emulated the technique Zhang Lie had just demonstrated.
In the blink of an eye, Cthaat had transformed into five major seas.
The five seas all surged forward, the nature of the water varying wildly in each case. Perhaps Zhang Lie was the only one who could appreciate the artistry of these five seas.
"[First Form: Parting the River]!"
Bright sword energy radiated from Zhang Lie like brilliant rays of sunlight, illuminating the entirety of the world.
The tide shot toward Zhang Lie like rampaging troops rushing forward. The raging sea of annihilation was poised to destroy the world, to destroy the balance between heaven and earth.
The spatial sea surged forth with waves as tall as city walls. The temporal sea formed thousands of steeds that shot forward as a vanguard. The spatial and temporal seas combined and morphed into a huge battlefield.
The stellar sea sent out wave after wave of starlight, each wave like a battalion of troops galloping and rushing forward, like meteors and steeds arcing through the air.
A frightening force descended, energy rumbling and rippling around him. As Zhang Lie swung the blade in his hand, a huge slash of sword energy shot downward and crashed against the five elemental seas in an incredible explosion.
His sword energy formed a raging tempest. Bells seemed to toll around the battlefield.
In the end, he was unable to withstand the combined assault of the five seas, whose waves forged onward against Zhang Lie.
The tides surged forward like a battalion, like hordes of ravenous tigers and wolves. The waves were a few hundred meters high, like city walls.
"[Shadow and Light]!" Zhang Lie whirled around. He suddenly appeared as a series of afterimages that slashed forward with their swords simultaneously.
An incredible sword will rose into the heavens, strong beyond human understanding, vast as the ocean.
The sun glowed with splendor. Golden runes patterned the air. Starlight shone through the heavens.
His surroundings were resplendent and blazing, so bright that the spectators had to look away.
The spectators found their souls trembling.
Heaven and earth resonated with the will of the sword and tore apart the waves and the sea.
"This isn't over yet!"
"This isn't over yet!"
"This isn't over yet!"
"This isn't over yet!"
The voices echoed as if dozens, or even hundreds, of Cthaats began to talk.
The seas split up once more, again and again, forming seas of lava, lightning, poison, mud... There were far too many to count. Zhang Lie's sword shattered each and every one, turning them into swamps that yet continued to coalesce into a huge sea formed from a medley of elements.
The sea of mishmash was unexpectedly strong. Waves surged one after another, accompanied by the sound of incredible howls.
Hanguang appeared in Zhang Lie's hands, parting a set of waves.
The waves grew larger and larger, rumbling like thunder, like an army fielded by Cthaat.
"[Syzygy]!"
A pitch-black sun appeared behind Zhang Lie, and a blood moon by his feet. His aura was magnified tenfold, and a halo of black sun appeared above his forehead. Natural law seemed to warp around him. Runes likewise appeared on the bloody moon by his feet, forming an intricate array.
The bloody moonlight illuminated the entire sea.
The energy of the sea was drained as Zhang Lie's aura rapidly grew stronger, as though he were consuming the sea's strength and transmuting it into his own.
"What have you done?!"
"What have you done?!"
"What have you done?!"
Dozens of Cthaats roared at Zhang Lie as one.
Zhang Lie crossed his twin blades. The blood moon resonated with the blade in his left hand, and the black sun with the blade in his right.
The black sun's flames strengthened Zhang Lie's attacks and burned away his opponent's. As the realms of reality and illusion inverted, Zhang Lie simultaneously slashed forward with both blades, destroying the waves before him.
"It's useless!"
"Don't waste your breath."
"You're far too puny against the likes of the sea."
"Even if you can weaken me, you can hardly compare to the vast sea itself."
Dozens of Cthaats spoke up simultaneously as the waves continued surging forward, so tall they dwarfed even the tallest of mountains. They were majestic beyond description.
Zhang Lie charged forward, slashing apart wave after wave, fighting against Cthaat for hundreds of rounds on end.
