Ultragenic Warlord

Chapter 1117: A Walking Disaster

"[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.

A windstorm raged and thunder crackled.

There were now five wheels of time to Fang Yi's back. The boost afforded by five wheels of time caused Fang Yi's attacks to grow even stronger. Wind and storm wrapped around his body as he rushed forward like a penetrating spear that broke through the silvery-white and pitch-black lightning and the violet storm as he shot toward Ghroth.

Attempting to halt Fang Yi's charge, Ghroth sent a tsunami of steel toward him—but, bolstered by five wheels of time, Fang Yi's skills were incomparable to before.

The spear forged of wind and storm pierced the tsunami of steel and folded it within its charge, converting its mass to its momentum. The spear corkscrewed through the air.

Suddenly, Ghroth's body began to vibrate as holy hymns burst into sound around him like air sirens. Wilbow's eyes widened. "Ghroth's using his full power! He's restoring his body comprehensively!"

The holy hymns caused the void to vibrate. The void surrounding Ghroth began to shatter, and the cracks, like those on a windowpane, began to propagate across the void. A spatial rift spawned into existence, dissipating the golden flood.

Even Sun Xiaowu, in his warlord form, was forced to retreat to avoid the worst of the storm. Fang Yi, however, didn't do so. He tried to break through the spatial rift with his spear.

Upon witnessing Fang Yi's steadfast will, Sun Xiaowu joined in.

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

Glancing at the two combatants, Wilbow shook his head, disdainful. "It's futile. Ghroth's nickname is the star of judgment. He's a mobile disaster, and this is one of the reasons why the other subordinates of the king of chaos don't like him."

Yang Ze asked, "Is this something innate?"

Wilbow replied, "The reason that Ghroth is termed a mobile disaster isn't only because he's so strong that he can spawn disasters easily—rather, he's so strong he can't help but spawn disasters no matter what he does."

"[Golden Divide]!"

Sun Xiaowu's thousand mechas all used [Golden Divide] simultaneously. Each strike was like a miniature sun, 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. The golden blades formed a river, a waterfall, that tore apart the sky and clashed against the spatial rift.

The storm of blades didn't quell the spatial rift. Instead, both suppressed each other amidst the void.

With Sun Xiaowu's technique disrupting the spatial rift, the surrounding space grew notably calmer. After Fang Yi pierced through the rift, he faced the manifold disasters that Ghroth had caused—a tsunami of steel, an eruption of lava, silvery-white and pitch-black lightning, and a purple storm. The four elemental forces merged together and exploded in a manner that shocked even Yang Ze.

Wilbow continued, "Not only can Ghroth create these disasters, he can even incite them. This is the primary reason he was ostracized by the king of chaos' other followers."

"What do you mean?"

"Put simply, not only can Ghroth create and control these disasters, he can even awaken them. For instance, if Ghroth draws near a world with seas or oceans, tsunamis will instantly form. If he draws near a world with volcanoes, they'll erupt, simultaneously causing earthquakes and cyclones."

If Ghroth were to approach the world of blazing sun, the hundred suns in the sky would fall down to the world like meteors. Even with the golden mulberry tree stabilizing the lava veins underground, the lava would erupt.

Yang Ze understood. "Ghroth is, by nature, a walking disaster and disaster accelerant."

The spatial rift that had just appeared was clearly caused by Ghroth.

Wilbow shrugged. "It's a particularly troublesome power, one that even Ghroth himself can't control fully."

A moving disaster—it was clear why no one would like him.

.

Wilbow continued, "That's why Ghroth's been in a hibernating state all this time to avoid destroying the three thousand worlds unconsciously. So far, Ghroth's only been defending passively—but now that he's choosing to awaken actively, this fight will become completely different."

Yang Ze asked, "Is the reason Ghroth's been sealed away within your father's body to prevent his latent talent from causing the destruction of this realm?"

Wilbow nodded. "To some extent. Father also needs Ghroth's destructive abilities to keep the worlds he controls in check. You should know that Father's only able to maintain his rationality and will by continuously birthing and annihilating these worlds."

"[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, its scales radiant and shining with golden light. As it basked in the golden skies, its aura grew so bright that it seemed as though a qilin god had descended on the world.

Its long whiskers floated in the air as golden clouds wrapped around his body. The qilin shone like a sun in its own right.

The golden qilin would originally be around a thousand meters tall, but in his mecha form, it grew to a staggering fifty thousand meters in height.

The golden qilin radiated light, illuminating the void. Even Ghroth didn't seem quite as large in comparison to the qilin. Although Ghroth was larger than the qilin, it wasn't by too much. The qilin's large body broke through the spatial rifts...
