Eight of the regions within the trapezohedron had been shattered, and were no longer able to be used.

Zhang Lie\'s [Blades, Extinguish] was a powerful attack, but unlike Fang Yi, he wasn\'t panting or visibly tired after executing it.

The domain of Eclipse spread to Nightdemon, who had already grown heavily injured. Upon being struck by the effects of the domain, he visibly sagged.

"[Shadow and Light]!"

Zhang Lie whirled around. Time suddenly sped up in the vicinity of Zhang Lie, and shining light arced across the hall. Nightdemon hurriedly activated the Shining Trapezohedron.

Before the Shining Trapezohedron could capture that light, Zhang Lie\'s sword struck Nightdemon and chopped off his claw holding onto the relic.

Only then did the relic activate its ability, forming six dimensional barriers around Zhang Lie.

Nightdemon immediately summoned the relic back—only to have the attack launched from Zhang Lie\'s other hand strike it and send it flying away.

Nightdemon flapped his wings in a forced retreat as his three red eyes shot out beams of light.

Zhang Lie formed a screen with his sword, blocking the beam.

"[Blade of the Heavens: the Sea Swells]!"

Energy poured out of Zhang Lie in waves, honing the edge of his blade. The pulses of energy struck the sea like a tsunami, devouring everything within.

Nightdemon summoned the relic back once again, but it was too late. Just as he was about to hide in extradimensional space once more, Zhang Lie\'s attack struck him.

The Shining Trapezohedron began to emit light, forming a dimensional barrier around Nightdemon, but the sword strike smashed through it and cleaved Nightdemon\'s body in two horizontally.

The halls of chaos fell silent as the king of chaos cleared away the barrier. "You\'ve won."

The members of Team Zenith broke the pregnant silence with a cheer as the king of chaos reversed time and restored Nightdemon\'s body.

Nightdemon turned to Zhang Lie. "You\'ve grown even stronger than when you were facing the king of keys."

Zhang Lie smiled without saying a word.

After the battle against the king of keys, Zhang Lie had absorbed more monarch gene fragments, so it was only natural that he would grow stronger.

More importantly, the fight against the king of keys had provided important experience.

The king of chaos retrieved the Shining Trapezohedron and began to play with it.

"My clones haven\'t returned yet. Would you like to have some fun with me for now, Zhang Lie?"

Everyone in the halls of chaos sucked in a breath. Was the king of chaos preparing to fight Zhang Lie himself? Had he still not given up on recruiting Zhang Lie?

The king of chaos then laughed. "I\'m half-joking, but only half. They\'re on their way back now."

Darkness spread through the hall, and shadows morphed into a humanoid.

A thin humanoid male, whose body was uniformly ink-black, appeared before their eyes. This was none other than the clone whom they had seen by the world of black rain.

The dark man walked up to the king of chaos and presented him with the collected fragments.

Subsequently, a walking pile of tumors and tentacles, with a fan covering its chest, slowly walked into the hall. She held a huge scythe in her hands. To the members of Team Zenith, she looked like a ravishing young woman wearing a blood-red dress, with a fan covering her face.

She stepped daintily into the hall in high heels, making her way toward the king of chaos.

However, after having seen the witch of dreams and Nightdemon before, none of them were so naive as to believe that her appearance was as it seemed.

This was the clone that they had seen around the Zongming world.

Despite knowing this rationally, however, their minds kept suggesting that the young woman really was just a young woman.

The fan in her hands had the ability to influence thought in the form of mental suggestions, which would cause others to view the bulbous monster like a young woman of their race.

If not for the fact that Zhang Lie had witnessed the young woman\'s true form via his draconic pupils, he would have been misled by the fan\'s power as well.

A gust of strange black current and flame silently appeared in the hall as the king of chaos\' third clone returned, a double-headed bat formed from live, icy darkness. The bat\'s heads were filled with venomous fangs, and countless starry eyes sparkled and shifted between its two heads.

The hall was blanketed by darkness, and a new moon hung in the air. Moonlight reflected off the various guests\' faces, their shadows mingling, as a figure wearing pitch-black armor arose from the intersection of those shadows with the air of a tyrant.

The fifth clone returned, a bulbous mass with golden tentacles.

A shrill wail echoed through the hall as the sixth clone returned, a faceless mass that continuously produced and absorbed subsidiary limbs.

The seventh clone was a black-skinned man with a strange skeleton tattoo on his face, wearing a formal top hat and a long swallowtail coat, who walked slowly into the hall.

The eighth clone was a lion with the face of a human.

The floor quaked as the ninth clone, a black ox bearing a world on its back, stomped into the hall.

One by one, the clones of the king of chaos returned to the hall and handed him the map fragments they had gathered.

Zhang Lie, the members of Team Zenith, and even the other guests were all astounded. They knew that the king of chaos had many clones, but not this many.

The king of chaos\' clones might well be a larger group than the guests of the banquet.

The king of chaos sighed. "What a pity that you all returned so quickly..."

The king of chaos was clearly very disappointed to not have been able to recruit Zhang Lie to his group.

The clones all handed the map fragments they had obtained to the king of chaos, and the result was a mind-boggling number of fragments. There were fifty thousand in all, all of which had been scattered across the three thousand worlds, and Zhang Lie didn\'t want to think how long it would have taken him to claim them all by himself.

The king of chaos proffered the fragments to Zhang Lie, who hastily accepted them.

The king of chaos continued, "These are all the fragments that my clones have collected among the three thousand worlds. Zhang Lie, your wish has been fulfilled."

The tentacular woman grumbled, "We had to run across the realm to get all these fragments!"
