Chapter 750: A Massive Explosion
A fish? No, that was no mere fish—it was the size of a whale, one that could swallow up sun and moon alike!
Howling winds began to rage over the battlefield, sending everyone stumbling.
The whale that had suddenly appeared above their heads shocked all the fighters. The pressure it gave off was so immense that no one dared to breathe.
"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!" Zhang Lie punched forward with a roar. Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him.
The giant fish hovering in the sky crashed down toward the ground. With a gigantic quake, the Mengtai walls cracked and crumbled, unable to withstand the onslaught of waves that were thousands of meters high. All the Mengtai were stupefied.
The walls that they had erected had withstood their fair share of assaults from the humans and the draconians, and generations of warriors had shed blood on the wall.
How many enemies had the wall stopped? How much invaders' blood had the wall absorbed? For all that it represented, the wall crumbled to just one punch from Zhang Lie.
Everything happened so quickly that even Behemoth couldn't react in time. One moment, everything was fine; the next, the wall had been entirely destroyed. Rubble flew like meteors and landed on the battlefield.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBecause the Mengtai and the other aliens were standing close to the Mengtai side of the battlefield, they found themselves under heavy bombardment. Quite a few warriors lost their lives to the rubble from their very own wall, and the Mengtai catapults were smashed to pieces.
The draconians and humans, who were quite far away, suffered no such injuries.
After the flood of water, the water-attuned genetic energy exploded through the air, and the aftershock caused all manner of spatial rifts to disrupt the battlefield. The Mengtai and the other aliens weren't fast enough to escape the devastation, and they were crushed to pieces.
The only survivors were those that were far from the wall to begin with.
The surge of energy shook heaven and earth, causing an even larger spatial rift to spawn from the entrance to the wormhole on the Mengtai world, wreaking further devastation.
Behemoth stared at Zhang Lie in shock. What was going on? This was far too frightening! He had never expected that there would be a human who could grow so strong as to command heaven and earth. This was no power a living creature should be able to possess—even he, the Mengtai champion, would have died to the attack if he were standing in its vicinity.
This wasn't on the level of a simple 'attack' anymore—it was 'annihilation'.
A group of people appeared where the wall had once stood. Despite the spatial rifts rampaging around them, the group of people seemed not to care. They strode forward directly, an action the aliens all thought to be suicidal. The spatial rifts ahead were so strong that they could rip even a fourth-level beast to pieces; who would try to brave its might?
The group of people walked out through the spatial rift completely unharmed, as though the spatial rift were only a gentle breeze to them. Who were these people who could brave the might of a spatial rift with nothing but their bodies?
The Mengtai warriors widened their eyes, disbelieving what they were seeing. Such ferocious spatial rifts—were these even living beings?!
Although the Mengtai couldn't claim to have the strongest physical constitution among the inhabitants of the three thousand worlds, they were surely among the strongest in that regard. Even the Mengtai didn't dare to brave these spatial rifts with their bare bodies—but these people seemed entirely immune!
Only the strongest of the Mengtai, the champion Behemoth, as well as the draconian sage understood what they were seeing. These people weren't braving the rifts with their bare bodies, but rather shielding themselves from the spatial rifts with their own strength and their own authority over space.
Their leader was the most amazing of them all. Behemoth simply couldn't comprehend what he was doing—despite walking at the very front and hence having to deal with the majority of the force of the spatial rift, he sauntered as though he were simply strolling through his backyard.
Light refracted around his body, and the force of the spatial rifts gradually grew weaker the closer they got, until they barely had the strength of a weak breeze.
Behemoth was certain that he would never be able to master spatial force and his own energy to this extent, not now, and not in a hundred years.
It was only because of the team's leader that the rest of the team was able to stride through the spatial rift safely.
As they drew closer, Behemoth was able to identify them clearly. Their party was unusual in that it wasn't composed of just one race. There were all sorts of strange races in that one group, some of whom even Behemoth hadn't seen before, along with two fifth-level beasts: a blood-red mantis and a giant covered with shining scales, with a palace on its back.
Behemoth would have a hard time against just the two fifth-level beasts together, let alone the members of the party. He didn't even dare look directly at the party's leader. Was that sort of strength, that sort of aura, really something a living being could possess?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBehemoth didn't understand how the Mengtai had roused that man's ire.
Suddenly, among the humans came excited cries. "Ah, it's Zhang Lie, the champion of mankind Zhang Lie!"
"Zhang Lie's here to save us!"
"He's here with the other aliens of the Milky Way, too!"
Indeed, the party was composed of Zhang Lie and the aliens accompanying him.
Because they would have to march through spatial rifts, Zhang Lie didn't bring too large a group with him. Only warlord-level hunters were eligible to join him, along with the two disaster-grade lifeforms.
Although Zhang Lie was able to counter much of the spatial rifts' strength with his own abilities, the members of the group still had to be individually strong in order to resist the rifts' assault on their bodies.
The cheers of the humans behind him meant that the arrival of this party would be a nightmare for the Mengtai. Clearly, the humans recognized this party, which had to have mobilized for them.
Behemoth scrutinized the party's leader even more closely. Although he looked like a human, Behemoth didn't dare think of him as one. Firstly, he could hardly believe that humans could become so strong, and secondly, if the leader of that party were truly a human, he and the other Mengtai were all dead meat.
Unfortunately, it seemed they were all about to die.
Behemoth finally understood how his brother, the Mengtai chieftain, had fallen. The man in front of him would have dealt with his brother in no time at all. Behemoth didn't dare think further about what might happen, and he had no time to do so. He had to give his last command now, before he lost the nerves to do so entirely.
"Rush over to the humans and draconians! Only by doing so can we live!"
