Ultragenic Warlord

Chapter 1164: Qilin of Gold

The golden qilin smashed into the metallic hurricane. The metal sparked as it struck the golden qilin's body, sending sparks all over as the qilin cried out.

The metallic hurricane was like a hurricane that had picked up all the scrap metal in a junkyard. All the metal was endowed with high-dimensional spatial authority, which went beyond even that forbidden by the eighteenth layer of space.

The hurricane was composed of a combination of metal and spatial force. As it repeatedly smashed into the golden qilin, the qilin's scales began to crack, and the hurricane grew fiercer and fiercer.

The metal shards began to resonate as their spatial authority tore apart the qilin's scales, causing it to explode.

The entire hall shook with the force of the explosion, as though a nuclear warhead had detonated. Golden light flared so brightly that it felt as though the sun was exploding.

The golden qilin burst apart amidst the metal hurricane, sending the remnant shards of metal flying.

"[Blinding Flash: Thousandfold Echo]!" As the hurricane was momentarily disrupted, Sun Xiaowu divided into another thousand clones.

Before the metal shards could gather once again, Sun Xiaowu made his move. "[Golden Divide]!"

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

Golden radiance filled the air, so concentrated that much of the shining blades struck the eyes hidden behind the metal cylinders and caused them to tremble. They haphazardly danced through the air, scoring lines into the cylinders' bodies. A few even struck Sun Xiaowu's own clones and pierced through them.

"[Goldenscale Palm]!" The remaining clones all clenched their fists. Their arms glowed with resplendent light, and a layer of dense golden scales emerged over their skin.

The golden radiance lit up the battlefield, as though a golden sun was rising out of its midst.

An aura of intense strength emanated from Sun Xiaowu's body.

Frightening shockwaves of energy radiated through the battlefield as Sun Xiaowu punched forward.

Sun Xiaowu's remaining clones struck in all directions. The power of his golden punch sent gusts of golden radiance blowing across the hall, scattering the metal.

"[Golden Divide: Soar]!" Sun Xiaowu's clones raised their hands as one. Golden radiance lit up the hall.

The clones all struck with [Golden Divide], forming a sea of resplendent gold. The tides surged, swallowing up all the metal, which cracked in the air.

Rather than dividing like cells, the metallic cylinders seemed to unfold like kaleidoscopes, forming a turbulent mass.

The replicating cylinders clashed with Sun Xiaowu's clones' attacks again and again, shattering the golden light and sending sparks flying. Some of the cylinders ended up slashed into pieces by the golden light.

"[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 a hundred meters tall. The golden runes surrounded Sun Xiaowu, turning him into a burning sun.

The mecha even looked a bit like Zhang Lie.

As Sun Xiaowu attacked, so too did the golden mecha.

The golden radiance burst apart and struck everything in sight, piercing through the floor of the hall. The golden light stormed through the hall, sending the metallic cylinders flying and thudding into the walls. Nevertheless, the cylinders continued to replicate, quickly repairing the damage that Sun Xiaowu had wrought.

"[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 metallic cylinders formed a latticework shield to block the radiant light, but to no avail. The golden light struck the cylinders and exploded the shield into smithereens.

"[Blinding Flash: Thousandfold Echo]!" Sun Xiaowu split into a thousand clones, each of which summoned a golden mecha.

The metallic cylinders which had spread throughout the hall as a result of the fighting now floated up and joined the mass in the center of the arena. They revolved in mid-air at high speed. Spatial authority flickered from the cylinders, transforming them into a metallic hurricane anew.

"[Golden Divide]!" Thousands of golden mechas simultaneously used Golden Divide, and the entire sky turned glittering gold. Each golden blade was five meters wide and thousands of meters long, and there were so many of them they filled the sky.

Golden fragments filled the air, some forged of Sun Xiaowu's genetic energy, others pieces of the metallic cylinders that had been chipped or sliced off.

However, the self-replicating metallic cylinders were able to absorb such losses readily.

"[Goldenscale Palm: Qilin]!" The golden mechas exploded with golden radiance. Their forms dissipated into motes of golden light, which shot toward Sun Xiaowu's own mecha and augmented it.

It was as large as the falling sun.

It bent its arms as golden energy shone from its body and illuminated the heavens. Tens of thousands of clones merged into Sun Xiaowu's main body, and the countless activated copies of the technique merged into one.

Golden scales covered up Sun Xiaowu's arm as it grew thicker and thicker, and the image of a golden qilin appeared behind him. In his mecha form, augmented by his thousand clones all stacked atop each other, the might of his golden qilin grew by at least fifty times, if not a hundred.

As Sun Xiaowu swung his fists forward, the golden qilin soared into the air.
