BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1230: Must We Really?
"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!"
Pale blue genetic energy rippled about Zhang Lie\'s arms. He flicked his wrists, causing a frightening aura to descend on the world. The sky began to darken, and a fish the size of a whale materialized in the air.
A howling gale swept over the arena. As more and more genetic energy gathered around Zhang Lie\'s arms, it looked as though he were at the heart of a whirlpool.
A huge wave soared into the air. As Zhang Lie punched forward, the fish slammed its huge tail on the ground and sent a torrent of water surging.
Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him. The towering waves looked like enraged black dragons, flooding the hall.
The frightening aura that exuded from Zhang Lie vanquished all the clones and extinguished Sun Xiaowu\'s golden radiance.
"[Adamantine Aegis]!" A layer of golden runes covered Sun Xiaowu\'s skin,
A huge rumble shook the heavens, and the entire pocket dimension quaked.
As the waves burst apart, the air filled with echoes of Zhang Lie\'s signature genetic energy, shattering space and swallowing up all life in its vicinity.
The ground quaked; space shook. The tolling of a bell resounded. The members of Team Zenith and Zhang Hanxiang clutched their heads in pain as the runic script dissipated from Sun Xiaowu\'s body.
Sun Xiaowu stood in the midst of a pale-blue hurricane, besieged by wind and storm. The runes on his skin glowed brightly, and he stood stably as though his feet were rooted to the earth. Against the towering waves of pale-blue genetic energy, Sun Xiaowu stood firm and unyielding.
Zhang Lie whistled. "You really have grown far stronger compared to when you were in the second realm!"
"[Blinding Flash: Ten Thousandfold Echo]!"
The next moment, Sun Xiaowu\'s body divided into thousands of illusions as Zhang Lie watched on in pride.
"Hmm? Interesting." He smirked.
"I\'m behind you, Captain!" Sun Xiaowu called out smugly as he appeared behind Zhang Lie\'s back.
"[Goldenscale Palm: Split]!" Golden radiance struck the land. Sun Xiaowu\'s palms brimmed with golden light as a dense layer of golden scales covered his skin. His aura suddenly shifted, and his right arm glowed with resplendent light.
An aura of intense strength emanated from Sun Xiaowu\'s body.
Sun Xiaowu took a step forward, then punched with all his might, generating a dominating wave of genetic energy.
Zhang Lie met Sun Xiaowu\'s punch with one of his own in a direct strike, causing the golden energy to explode over the land. Sun Xiaowu\'s image cracked and fizzled away—that "Sun Xiaowu" had just been one of his clones.
Golden radiance covered the sky as his clones gathered together, each seeming simultaneously real and illusory.
"[Goldenscale Palm: Qilin]!"
Sun Xiaowu and all his clones leapt up into the air, performing exactly the same action. Golden light flashed from their arms and illuminated the sky. 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.
He rushed forward, golden scales appearing over his arm as he punched at Zhang Lie,who met him with nothing but his bare hands.
Zhang Lie\'s palm alone was sufficient to stop the golden qilin\'s might. His palm was far smaller than the massive qilin, but it boasted ridiculous strength.
"Captain, you\'re far too strong!" Sun Xiaowu gasped.
"Here!" Just then, Zhang Lie tossed the qilin back toward him. When the explosion cleared, Sun Xiaowu was left standing. His armor had transformed him into a ten-meter tall golden giant surrounded by runes.
"[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.
"Captain, I\'m coming!" As Sun Xiaowu punched forward, so too did the golden mecha. The clash between punch and punch caused a storm to form, and the ground cracked at the point of impact.
"[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 ground caved in; the sky shook.
Genetic energy gathered on Zhang Lie\'s fist, like the roaring of the sea.
[Goldenscale Palm: Split] transformed into blinding golden light, as though the sun were falling to the ground. Radiance struck Zhang Lie like a palpable force.
Simultaneously, Zhang Lie punched forward, bolstered by the weight of the entire ocean.
Radiant light smashed into the boundless ocean in a huge crash that left cracks in the pocket dimension.
"[Blinding Flash: Thousandfold Echo]!"
Sun Xiaowu split into a thousand clones, each of which summoned a golden mecha.
"[Golden Divide]!"
Thousands of golden mechas simultaneously used Golden Divide, and the entire sky turned glittering gold.
There were so many of them they filled the sky. The golden blades formed a golden flood.
"[The Boundless Blade: Yawning Wave]!"
Zhang Lie extended his pointer finger like a sword, and water-attuned genetic energy gathered around it. As he waved his finger, sword energy erupted like a wave, accompanied by a giant shark.
The shark rushed into the crowd of Sun Xiaowu\'s clones, tearing dozens apart within moments. The mechas immediately attacked it.
"[Goldenscale Palm]!"
Sun Xiaowu\'s arms glowed with resplendent light, and a layer of dense golden scales emerged over his skin. The thousand clones all used [Golden Divide] simultaneously, dyeing the heavens in resplendent gold and causing the shark to burst in an explosion of genetic energy.
