Ultragene Warlord

Chapter 1426: From Whence

This fight would proceed to the end; it was unavoidable.

"Kill!" both combatants shouted.

The void cage trembled. Both combatants had grown enraged and were fighting with boiling blood.

Xing Yu was disadvantaged from the beginning. Fang Yi had speared him in the chest.

A domain of spacetime surrounded Fang Yi, allowing him a minute advantage and displacement forward in time: 0.1 seconds into the future.

The discrepancy was too small for Fang Yi to replicate Yang Ze's [Reflected Sight, Refracted Vision], projecting his future self into the present. His attacks were unable to strike the Xing Yu of the future, but they could, and did, grow that slightest bit faster.

Against an opponent of equal caliber, an advantage of 0.1 seconds could make all the difference.

For instance, despite the fact that Fang Yi's spear was just a tiny bit faster, Xing Yu, who had grown accustomed to Fang Yi's speed, was immediately disadvantaged and incurred a chest wound.

Xing Yu roared. His hair was in disarray; he seemed to be rampaging. He grabbed ahold of the spear that Fang Yi had thrust through his chest and used the strongest technique of the Stargod race: the Stargod Seal.

Xing Yu couldn't care less about the damage to his mind, at this point. He acknowledged Fang Yi as a true opponent and traded a wound for a wound. Fang Yi was sent flying along with his spear. He fell toward the audience stands like a meteor.

He scrambled up amidst a cloud of dust, fighting intent shining brightly through his eyes. As he took to the air, the fight resumed anew.

Fang Yi grew stronger and stronger as he fought. The wheels of time to his back continued stacking endlessly until his speed reached an apex. Twenty wheels of time had formed seemingly in no time at all, and his attacks were two seconds faster than Xing Yu. Not only that, his techniques began to stack on top of one another. As he rampaged, wind and storm surrounded him and exploded around his opponent.

Fang Yi had never fought to such an exhilarating extent before. His body wasn't able to support such strenuous fighting in the third realm, and he was only able to stack ten wheels of time at most. After that, while he was able to bear an increased burden,either he or his opponent would give out before he could stack them further. This was the first time that he had encountered an opponent like Xing Yu who was able to fight to this extent.

Fang Yi had never experienced the thrill that came with stacking twenty wheels of time. His mental and physical state was elevated to an extreme peak, and he felt comfortable all over.

As the battle progressed, the twenty-first wheel of time formed. Beyond twenty wheels of time, each additional wheel conferred a superlative increase.

The twenty-one wheels of time around Fang Yi's body began to glow with light and blistering radiance. Wind and storm melded into Fang Yi's spear, augmenting his strength further.

Within mere moments, Xing Yu felt the pressure from his opponent multiply.

On the other hand, he was growing more and more weary as the battle dragged on. Realizing that he would have to end it quickly, that Fang Yi would only grow stronger, he made his move.

"[All Bows Down to the Stellar Sea]!" Xing Yu roared. Resplendent starlight glowed all around him, as though he were shrouded in the cosmos itself. His strength grew to a frightening extent.

With a shout, the starlight burst forth into a stellar sea, quashing all resistance. The stars formed a meteor shower that penetrated heaven and earth, destroying everything in sight.

"[Heaven's Judgment]! [Tiger's Howl, Dragon's Bellow]!"

Fang Yi's spear took on the aspect of a dragon of the winds and a storm tiger as he charged forward. Wind and storm combined and crackled at the tip of Fang Yi's spear, and a dragon's howl echoed resoundingly in the air.

With twenty-one wheels of time, the combination of wind and lightning generated a frightening force that seemed to be able to penetrate space, as though the spear had transformed into an electric saw.

A chaotic storm filled the air. Lightning sparked as dragon and tiger interwove. With temporal power joining the mix, the fourfold energies formed a vortex around Fang Yi's spear and pierced through the stellar sea, disrupting space and the ordinary flow of time.

"[Trappings of Void]!" Xing Yu shouted, intending to bind his opponent with natural law. He clasped his hands together and executed the Stargod Seal in an attempt to block Fang Yi's spear and dissipate the power it had accumulated.

Unfortunately for him, Fang Yi had reached the pinnacle of strength. At this point, his frightening combat power, bolstered by his overwhelming techniques, was all but invincible.

Neither Xing Yu's [Trappings of Void] nor his Stargod Seal could save him now.

The spear shot through Xing Yu's body in a shower of blood.

Xing Yu roared as his body trembled. The energies of chaos, time, lightning, and wind ravaged his body.

Everyone was shocked by the sight. What had happened? Xing Yu's body was bloodied all over?

"What happened?"

"The hope of the Stargods, the star of his generation..."

The audience was completely taken aback.

Fang Yi strode out of the cage of void, invincible in his glory. He stared disdainfully at Xing Yu. "Is that all you've got?"

"Is Xing Yu going to be defeated?!"

The spectators' eyes opened wide. No one had expected such a development; defeat had come all too quickly.

The younger generation of Stargods was particularly astounded, as were their elders.

Xing Yu stumbled back and coughed out another mouthful of blood. His muscular body had been gored, and blood was leaking out of that wound and transforming into mental effluence as it hit the ground.

He had been stronger than any member of his generation that he had fought. No one had lasted dozens of blows against him; he was so strong that he caused all others of his generation to feel despair.

Today, however, he was to experience the other end of things.

The sudden end to the battle left the spectators breathless.

The Stargods all paled. How had this happened? To them, Xing Yu was an invincible existence, but that was at odds with the sight they saw before them. Was the Stargod race doomed? Their hope had been snuffed out before it could shine!

The Stargod elders' eyes glowed with killing intent. Were they not in a virtual space, they would already have struck him down. How could a nameless cultivator be so strong?

"He must be taken down!" A peerless elder of the Stargods sent a mental transmission to all members of his race.

This outcome was an unacceptable humiliation; none could be allowed to defeat the hope of the younger generation of Stargods!

"Who is he? What race is he from? Find out!"
