Chapter 754: Team Zenith Reunites

Moments before the attack hit home, a shadow suddenly appeared behind Sun Mengmeng. The appearance of the shadow caused Behemoth to feel a bone-chilling cold. His bestial instincts caused him to freeze for a moment.

Sun Mengmeng smiled brightly at the appearance of the shadow—whose identity was none other than Zhang Lie.

No one saw how Zhang Lie struck. One moment, Behemoth was about to strike; the next, he had been kicked flying like a rubber ball.

With a smile, Sun Mengmeng followed up on Zhang Lie\'s attack. She nocked her bow, and the image of a garuda appeared behind her. Black flame revolved around her and scorched the air.

"[Lunarflame Shot: Extirpation of the Garuda]!" Sun Mengmeng released her arrow, which morphed into a human-faced, golden-winged bird in mid-air, radiating red light as it arced through the skies. It began to pulse with red fire, brimming with such energy that it seemed as though it would set the world aflame.

Sun Mengmeng\'s attack scorched the heavens and the earth, dyeing black everything in sight. The black flame devoured Behemoth whole. He was already critically injured, and he couldn\'t muster up any further resistance against this attack. His body scattered to the winds as ash.

Zhang Lie ignored Behemoth and turned to Sun Mengmeng. "You\'ve grown stronger, but also more careless. If I weren\'t here, you would be dead now because of your carelessness!"

Sun Mengmeng laughed. "I intentionally revealed an opening because you were here, Captain. I wanted to see if you would come rescue me!"

Sun Mengmeng\'s dominance in the second realm didn\'t cause her to become big-headed, but Zhang Lie thought it prudent to remind her to be cautious given how long it had been since their last meeting.

Zhang Lie narrowed his eyes. "I\'ll teach you a lesson later! Now, tell me, how is it that you chose such an opportune time to ascend to the third realm?"

Sun Mengmeng replied, "Captain, let me be clear on one thing: we all only ascended after maxing out our disaster gene fragments. We had intended on preparing further and finding successors for our positions in the kingdom of Limit, but we received urgent news about the aliens\' invasion of the human homeworld in the third realm. After talking with Fang Yi and the others, we decided to advance prematurely."

Time passed even more quickly in the third realm than in the second. Zhang Lie had spent a year in the third realm, but that had only been three or four months in the second. It had only been a month since Sun Mengmeng and the others began working on their plans to ascend.

The difference between the rate at which time passed in the second and third realms was massive, but even that paled in comparison to that between Earth and the third realm. A year in the third realm corresponded only to roughly a dozen days on Earth.

Sun Mengmeng had intended on ascending a few days later, but the urgent news she received caused her to revise her plans.

The human homeworld was being attacked. If it were destroyed, hunters ascending from the second realm to the third would be sent to a randomized location, which would greatly increase the difficulty of ascension for humanity at large, not to mention the cost of building a new teleportation apparatus back to Earth.

As a result, in order to protect humanity, the members of Team Zenith chose to ascend.

Zhang Lie clarified, "Everyone\'s in the third realm, then?"

"Right, Captain, everyone\'s advanced!"

Zhang Lie was overjoyed—coincidentally, he was in need of helpers. He glanced all around him. "Where are the others?"

"They\'re still dealing with the invading aliens in the wormholes all around."

"[Heaven\'s Judgment]! [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.

Wind and storm combined and crackled at the tip of Fang Yi\'s spear, and a dragon\'s howl echoed resoundingly in the air. As he manipulated his spear, a fusillade of lightning shot through the battlefield.

With his brilliant spear, Fang Yi dominated the battlefield.

"[Shadow and Light]!" At that very moment, Fang Yi morphed into countless clones, each of which moved independently through the battlefield. Flowers of blood bloomed where his clones passed by, in such great numbers that the tide of the battle turned toward the humans and draconians.

The invading aliens were particularly shocked. Why weren\'t such powerful humans at the main battlefield with the Mengtai? What were they doing guarding the other wormholes to the human homeworld?

Mist spread through the air. Hundreds of sharks formed a horde within that mist and roamed the battlefield, tearing at whatever alien they encountered. When any of the sharks were defeated, more spawned from the mist, an endless army.

Yang Ze stood atop a wall overlooking the battlefield. Lotus flowers made of pure water blossomed from the buds with which he had seeded the battlefield, each an intricate construct of genetic energy. "Looks like I have enough prepared now."

There were over a hundred lotus flowers blooming.

Yang Ze snapped his fingers.

Ripple after ripple of water-attuned genetic energy emanated from each flower, bursting apart in the air and forming huge waves that swallowed up all the aliens trapped within the cloud of mist. The mist dissipated, leaving no trace of any of the aliens behind.

One of the human hunters rushed forward. "Thank you for your assistance. Aren\'t you from Team Zenith?"

Most of the human hunters had tuned in to the Void Cup, and they had at least some impression of Yang Ze.

The strength he showed would have been absolutely incredible for a seasoned third-realm hunter, let alone one who had just ascended.

Yang Ze replied, "I\'m Yang Ze, from Team Zenith."

Curious though the hunters might be about the source of his strength, there were more pressing matters. "The Mengtai are leading the charge against the human homeworld. The draconian sage, king of the realm, has headed to the Mengtai battlefield himself, but I\'m afraid—"

Yang Ze held up a hand. "Don\'t worry. The strongest ranged attacker in Team Zenith was assigned to that battlefield. With her around, no Mengtai will ever claim the human lands."

"[Blinding Flash: Hundredfold Echo]!" Sun Xiaowu\'s body split into over a thousand clones, so many they seemed to fill the sky.

"[Golden Divide]!" The hundred clones all used [Golden Divide] simultaneously, coloring the sky in gold and raining down golden feathers in such numbers that they pinned down all the invaders on the ground. To them, Sun Xiaowu was a walking calamity.
