Chapter 703: Another Farm

Such an embarrassing event made the king of the realm promise himself that, once his control over the realm were solidified, he would devote himself to cultivation so that nothing like what happened that day could happen again.

Cultivation was strength; cultivation was might—he had to stop relying on his master too much. Because he had been accompanied by Zhang Lie, the king of the realm lacked a driving force for improving his strength. After all, anyone he couldn't defeat, Zhang Lie could.

But what if Zhang Lie himself were the problem, just like what happened today?

Just the excess energy that Zhang Lie gave off was enough to level the entire city. If Zhang Lie hadn't reined in that energy in time, even the king would have been swallowed up whole.

Zhang Lie didn't care about what the king of the realm, who stood outside his chambers, thought. He was deep in thought as he scrolled through his data.

Zhang Lie: a disaster-grade lifeform

As Zhang Lie stepped outside his chambers, the ninth prince bowed. "Congratulations on your success, Master."

The king of the realm's hands were still trembling. He hadn't yet fully recovered from the shock of venting all that excess energy that Zhang Lie was giving off.

Zhang Lie asked curiously, "What are you doing here? Is court over?"

The king of the realm rolled his eyes at him.?It's all your fault!

"Well, it's rather convenient. Send me to the fourth-level beast that's about to evolve, will you?"

"Now?"

"Is there a problem?"

The king coughed. "Naturally not, Master, but please stay far away from the capital when you absorb these cores. I'm very worried that the energy you give off will be enough to destroy the capital."

"Ah, I overlooked this issue. That's not a problem."

The king of the realm nodded. "In that case, let me send you to where the evolving fourth-level beast is located."

Spatial energy locked in on Zhang Lie and whisked him away, sending him to the depths of the deep sea.

As he felt the pressure bearing down on him, Zhang Lie experienced a momentary sensation of discomfort.

A weaker hunter might have been unable to bear with the sudden change in pressure, and would explode on the spot. However, Zhang Lie was hardly weak. Just one or two breaths was all it took him to acclimatize himself to this new biome. Such was the strength of a disaster-grade lifeform, after all.

Zhang Lie could sense a potent lifeform around him, but he didn't know where that lifeform was located. He looked all around, but he wasn't in much of a hurry. Instead, he released rainbow fog around himself and instructed the lifeforms that fell prey to gather around him.

Subsequently, he began rearing lifeforms in the deep sea, just as he had done in the second realm.

For two whole months, Zhang Lie let them roam freely around him while he solidified his foundation after his recent advancement.

One day, the king of the realm whispered telepathically in his head, "Master, that fourth-level beast has finally evolved!"

Only then did Zhang Lie find the disaster-grade lifeform that he had spent two months feeding. It was so big it looked like an underwater mountain. In comparison, Zhang Lie was far smaller a figure.

Just one eye of the lifeform was as large as a gymnasium. The moment Zhang Lie appeared in front of it, the disaster-grade lifeform mired in darkness sensed the strength in Zhang Lie's body. It had lived for countless years in the depths of the sea, and it had never encountered anything as mysterious as Zhang Lie.

Just then, Zhang Lie's eyes shone with a rainbow gleam, causing the disaster-grade lifeform's mind to go blank.

The illumination from his gaze allowed Zhang Lie to identify the lifeform's true identity: a gigantic sea turtle larger than even the whirlpool tyrant he had encountered way back when.

Zhang Lie reached a hand out to the disaster-grade lifeform's brain, trying to extract its core directly. As he applied pressure with his palm, the disaster-grade lifeform's skull began to crack. The crack quickly propagated through the lifeform's body, causing it to writhe in pain. As it did so, the rainbow gleam in its eyes began to recede. It opened its mouth wide, like a gigantic black hole. Zhang Lie felt a tremendous suction take over his body.

Currents of seawater converged around the sea turtle's mouth, as if trying to push Zhang Lie within the turtle's belly. Zhang Lie felt as though he were fighting against the entire sea.

As expected, it was easy for a disaster-grade lifeform to break through his compulsion. Nevertheless, Zhang Lie could defeat it on the basis of brute strength alone.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Quake]!" Zhang Lie's fists rippled with water-attuned genetic energy imbued with spatial force.

The entire sea seemed to swirl around him and his arms, revolving at faster and faster speeds.

It was as though Zhang Lie were battling for control over the seawater with the disaster-grade lifeform. As both of them used their techniques, a whirlpool formed between them, one with such strength that it sucked in all manner of aquatic lifeforms nearby.

As Zhang Lie punched forward, the oceans trembled. Half the ocean seemed to have been struck by that blow, and the seawater began to froth.

The force was so huge that it spread even to the surface of the sea, forming a gigantic wave that seemed as though it would swallow up the shore.

The king's face fell. "Master, just what are you doing?"

He immediately teleported to the scene and suppressed the roiling oceans.

Even the gigantic disaster-grade lifeform was unable to hold out against the effect of this punch. Its mountainous body was forced back time and again.

Zhang Lie's genetic energy exploded, shaking the entire ocean and forming a huge geyser of water over its surface, hundreds of meters tall. The seabed cracked; the seafloor crumbled. Ocean debris and dead lifeforms were sucked into the current.

Zhang Lie's punch had rocked the entire sea.

The king of the realm stared open-mouthed as he sensed what was going on underwater. He knew that Zhang Lie was strong; he had broken the walls of the capital, which had withstood over a millennium of invasions.

Even so, he thought that that was the extent of Zhang Lie's power—but the destruction that Zhang Lie was wreaking on the seafloor now made him rethink that notion. If this punch had landed on the capital's walls, half the capital would have been demolished in an instant.

To be frank, though Zhang Lie had held back then, it would have been impossible for him to wreak such havoc. The most important factor augmenting his strength was the fact that he was now fighting underwater, and his genetic energy was water-attuned.
