Chapter 331: The Skies of Qi
Meanwhile, the instigators of this phenomenon were struggling against the will of the world\'s intended subjugation. Holes appeared in the sky, and the lifeforce of all the greenery and beasts in the area was quickly being sucked away.
The six members of Team Zenith quickly got into formation. As they linked arms, a black half-moon rose into the air. The black moon gave off dazzling rays of darkness, devouring everything in sight, including the rainbow-colored genetic energy formed from the will of the world.
At the same time, the six hunters again willed that they be transported to Qi in the second realm.
Rather than acquiesce, however, the will of the world only kept increasing the force being applied on the hunters.
While the will of the world was strong, the hunters of Team Zenith weren\'t weak, and the will of the world had just received two major setbacks: the incursion of the disaster-grade lifeform, along with Zhang Lie\'s ascension. The amount of energy that the will of the world was able to spend on the hunters was limited, so the hunters of Team Zenith were able to handle what limited energy the will of the world sent their way.
Over the next two hours, the six members of Team Zenith managed to defend against ten waves of attacks from the will of the world, turning the forest where they were situated into a barren wasteland.
After the tenth wave, the will of the world finally seemed to give up, and the notifications that the members of Team Zenith received grew visibly different.
[Your genetic energy has surpassed the threshold of the first realm. You will be transported to Qi in the second realm.]
[Your genetic energy has surpassed the threshold of the first realm. You will be transported to Qi in the second realm.]
[Your genetic energy...]
A rainbow-colored teleportation array was inscribing itself by their feet.
"Our captain was right—our plan really did succeed. Everyone, we\'ve successfully overcome the will of the world!"
"Honestly, I still can\'t believe it—to think we were able to grow so strong as to be able to counteract the will of the world itself!"
"Can you imagine how strong our captain must be, to have gone against the will of the world alone? In the end, the will of the world hadn\'t been able to do anything against him—he moved on so as to prevent the first realm from being destroyed!"
The teleportation array, which had just been completed, suddenly flashed. Their vision turned black, and they suddenly found themselves in mid-air, about a thousand meters above the city of Qi.
Was the will of the world trying to send them to their deaths?
They doubted it—the members of Team Zenith all possessed some form of aerial maneuverability or another, and any decent first-realm hunter would be able to survive such a fall.
In fact, the will of the world had simply constructed the teleportation array in a hurry, and the coordinates of the teleportation weren\'t as precise as they usually were.
Wind and storm circulated around Fang Yi\'s body. He quickly regained control of himself, then morphed into a bolt of lightning as he descended to the ground. Beside him, a pair of fiery wings sprouted from Sun Mengmeng\'s back, and she too dove toward the ground.

Li Feng blinked from spot to spot like a ray of light, following Fang Yi and Sun Mengmeng. Meanwhile, Yang Ze floated to the ground on a bed of clouds, and Sun Xiaowu hunkered down into the shape of a cannonball as he allowed gravity to propel him downwards. Much like Sun Mengmeng, Zhou Ying sprouted a pair of leafy wings from her back.
The six hunters descended toward Qi.
Almost immediately as they appeared, the guards of Qi noticed them. They each possessed immense genetic energy, none of which was familiar to the guards. The fact that they had somehow managed to enter Qi airspace and were now descending to ground level caused the guards to sound a raid alert immediately.
The city of Qi frothed.
The last time this alert had sounded was when the sura invaded the human cities—the reason the guards had thought the hunters of Team Zenith to be such a strong enemy was because of the remnant traces of the will of the world\'s energy that still surrounded their bodies. After all, that energy was easily purer than anything the monarchs of the sura could produce.
The strongest hunters of Qi swarmed out of homes and buildings.
"Invaders, desist at once!"
In just ten seconds, Fang Yi, Sun Menngmeng, and the others found themselves surrounded by bands of Qi elites.
Invaders?! What was going on? They had just ascended to the second realm!
Fang Yi stepped forward. "Excuse me, I think there\'s been a misunderstanding. We\'re humans, not invaders."
"Oh? In that case, who\'s your superior? Why aren\'t there records of your genetic energy in Qi? You aren\'t recognized by the artificial intelligence of Qi!"
Fang Yi continued introducing himself. "I\'m Fang Yi of Team Zenith, and behind me are my teammates Sun Mengmeng, Sun Xiaowu, Yang Ze, Li Feng, and Zhou Ying."
"Team Zenith? The same Team Zenith as from the Void Cup? Did you all just ascend?"
Fang Yi nodded. "Yes, that\'s right."
"Do you really think that I\'m a fool? How can newcomers to the second realm possess this level of genetic energy? Guards, seize these disguised invaders!"
