Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1116: Night Devourers

Ghroth again shot out a scorching-hot laser beam from his eye, one filled with the energy of annihilation.

Fang Yi's saw-like spear clashed against that laser beam once more in a massive explosion of light.

The next moment, Sun Xiaowu generated a thousand clones of himself.

"[Golden Divide]!" The thousand clones all used [Golden Divide] simultaneously, coloring the sky in gold.

Ghroth's purple windstorm blocked the effects of [Golden Divide]. As silvery-white and pitch-black lightning scintillated in the void, Sun Xiaowu's thousands of clones were instantly annihilated.

"[Born of Lightning, Swallowed by the Wind]!" As Fang Yi shouted, his spear traced a half-moon in the air, surrounded by an aura of time. Light and shadow flashed by its tip, just like the wind and lightning that made up the core of Fang Yi's techniques.

Temporal energy surged toward the tip of his spear.

Fang Yi's spear thrust forward, penetrating the void and leaving a black hole behind.

Everything froze and turned gray: the wind, the scintillating lightning, Sun Xiaowu, golden radiance, purple windstorm, and even Ghroth's fiery-red laser.

The only color in the space came from Fang Yi and his crackling spear.

On the rust-red planet that formed Ghroth's body, a swarm of bugs flew out, jade-green all over, with green ears resembling ghostly flames, and a gray gleam emanating from their eyes.

Despite their rapid speed, Fang Yi's highly sensitive eyes were able to capture their movements. They had huge eyeballs without eyelids, and segmented antennae on their head that wriggled and twisted. Their ten legs were covered in shiny black tentacles folded upon their pale bellies. They had hard, semicircular wings made out of triangular scales, and their three mouths squirmed wetly.

These unusual bugs flew out of the rust-red planet, entirely ignoring the temporal stasis as they fed on the temporal energy around.

As they did so, their bodies grew larger and larger, and the frozen time returned to normal.

Wilbow glanced at the bugs. "Night devourers, one of the two types of frightful bugs that live on Ghroth's body! No—more accurately, the most frightening type of bug. Just a few dozen of these bugs can kill a combatant on the level of a superior king."

Yang Ze was shocked. "Live on... as parasites?"

Wilbow shook his head. "More symbiotism, but I suppose parasitism does work. These night devourers are frightening indeed. Allegedly, their race has consumed more than one superior world."

The night devourers flew toward Fang Yi.

"[Stormwind Kick]!" His leg surging with wind and storm, Fang Yi sent a night devourer flying. The remaining night devourers competed to consume the wind and storm energy in the aftermath of the attack.

After doing so, the remaining devourers then turned to Yang Ze.

It was shocking that these night devourers could absorb energy directly.

"[Adamantine Aegis: Martial God]!" Golden runes emerged from Sun Xiaowu's body and revolved around him as his aura grew stronger and stronger.

As the golden runes merged with his genetic energy, Sun Xiaowu transformed into a mecha over ten meters tall. Runes decorated his body, glowing behind his back like a burning sun.

The mecha even looked a bit like Zhang Lie.

As Sun Xiaowu attacked, so too did the golden mecha. The punch was so strong that, before the night devourers could absorb the attack's energy, their bodies exploded.

Yang Ze's eyes lit up as he realized how to deal with the night devourers.

"[Wheel of Time]!" Fang Yi's spear took on the aspects of time and age. Temporal winds buffeted the spear, and a mysterious light began to circle the spear like lightning.

A wheel of light appeared behind Fang Yi, taking on the form of a clock.

Fang Yi thrust his spear forward so quickly it left dozens of afterimages in all directions, piercing through the night devourers' bodies. Although the night devourers could absorb energy and even mass, they weren't particularly fast or strong.

Even in those areas, they were on par with an average superior king—but as long as one could attack with stronger, faster attacks, the night devourers wouldn't be able to counter them. In other words, they simply had to surpass their opponent in terms of physical attributes.

This might have been difficult for others, but for Sun Xiaowu and Fang Yi, it was a trivial enough problem.

Both of them had techniques that could boost their own attributes to some extent, and it wasn't particularly difficult for either to exceed that threshold.

"[Golden Divide]!"

Sun Xiaowu used his hand as a blade to execute [Golden Divide]. The night devourers tried to absorb the energy he was giving off, only to be slaughtered en masse by the technique instead.

After killing three night devourers in a row, a second wheel of time appeared behind Fang Yi as his speed and reflexes grew even faster. Boosted by the wheels of time, Fang Yi's speed rose by a factor of four.

Ghroth had no intention of sitting still and doing nothing. He sent out his black-and-white lightning, circled by a nebulous purple cloud.

Meanwhile, Fang Yi launched his spear, crackling with wind and lightning, with incredible force. It sent wind howling and lightning flashing through the sky.

It left thousands of artificial images behind as a third wheel of time appeared. Fang Yi's dense but wide-range attack cleanly defended against and countered Ghroth's attack.

"[Goldenscale Palm: Split]!" Layers of dense golden scales appeared on Sun Xiaowu's arms, and his right arm glowed with resplendent light.

As Sun Xiaowu attacked, so too did the golden giant, bringing the strength of his attack to a new level entirely. The golden light was like a blazing sun. A huge wave of gold shot toward Ghroth.

Following Ghroth's command, the worlds he controlled shot toward the golden sun and exploded in the void. Unable to fully block the sun's strength, lava rose up on each planet.

Even so, the golden sun caused the lava to dissipate by momentum alone. The golden light seemed unstoppable. Ghroth was forced to shoot out another blood-red laser from his eyes to halt the advance of the attack.contemporary romance
