He’s gonna turn the tide and take down that Zombie King for sure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The morale in Heartland, which had been dragging in the dirt, suddenly surged back to life. Many of the zombies had followed Endless for a long time. They knew his legend—since the day he emerged, he’d carved a path through every battlefield, undefeated and unstoppable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They believed this time would be no different. He would pull them back from the brink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Raaaargh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartland’s elite zombies roared in unison, their battle cries shaking the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would fight at the side of their Deathless Sovereign—no matter what.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Meteorfall, Bloodveil, and the other Zombie Kings, along with their underlings, wore grim expressions. The battle had raged for a while now, but everyone knew—the real fight was just beginning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pressure from the three Deathless Sovereigns was like a mountain pressing down on their chests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was suffocating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless stood at the peak, his black robes billowing in the wind, radiating pure killing intent. He took a single step forward—and then leapt from the mountaintop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s coming!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s really coming!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tension gripped the battlefield. The strongest Deathless Sovereign on the entire Necroterra continent was about to enter the fray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Claire’s eyes widened, her breath catching in her throat. To humans, Endless was a nightmare made flesh—an unstoppable force, like a mountain crashing down on them. Just standing in his presence made it hard to breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t weak by any means, but facing Endless... she couldn’t even summon the courage to resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was despair incarnate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You finally couldn’t sit still, huh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a calm, magnetic voice cut through the chaos—not loud, but it silenced everything around it, striking straight into the soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone turned toward the sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There stood Ethan, poised atop a massive boulder. His white shirt was crisp and spotless, his face as handsome and composed as ever, eyes cool and unreadable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re in such a rush to jump in... guess you’re rattled,\" Ethan said, his voice low and steady. \"If that’s the case, how do you expect to beat me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless didn’t even flinch. A faint smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. \"At this point, trying to mess with my head is pointless. That’s kid stuff.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want to stand at the top, you’d better bring real power. We’ve got three Deathless Sovereigns now. Let’s see how you plan to win.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, two figures appeared behind him—Lilith and Nightwraith—one on each side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three Deathless Sovereigns stood together, their combined presence surging like a storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flicker of seriousness passed through Ethan’s usually indifferent gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice dropped, taking on a weight it hadn’t carried before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowly raised his hands to the buttons of his white shirt, unfastening them one by one, from top to bottom. His movements were calm, deliberate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s doing it again!!!\" Bloodveil’s eyes bulged, his voice tinged with excitement. He’d seen Ethan fight before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Claire narrowed her eyes. She’d seen this moment once, in the footage from the Battle of the Skywall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But seeing it in person—it was something else entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That white shirt—it was like a seal on Ethan’s power. With each button undone, his aura surged higher and higher. The force of the Domain of the Dead pulsed outward, rolling across the battlefield like a tidal wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless let out a cold snort. The power of his own Temporal Domain flared in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Absolute Domains collided in midair, shaking the sky itself. The surrounding mountains trembled, and entire cliff faces began to crumble. Massive landslides thundered down, turning the landscape into a scene straight out of the apocalypse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that was just the warm-up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan shrugged off the white shirt completely, revealing a body carved like a statue—muscles lean and powerful, every line honed to perfection, like he’d been sculpted by the gods themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"RRAAAHHH—!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zombie Horde roared behind them, their cries echoing through the crumbling mountains like a tidal wave crashing down. The sheer force of it shook the earth, their momentum unstoppable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is Ethan really gonna take on all three of them by himself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bloodveil looked up, eyes wide with disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Claire, however, never took her eyes off Ethan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...He’s kinda hot, actually.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bloodveil blinked, caught off guard, then quickly shook it off. \"Let’s just finish off Nerissa and get over there to help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes were locked on the battlefield as the clash of the Deathless Sovereigns finally erupted in full force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Absolute Domains collided, their energies intertwining in the air. Endless moved like a meteor, his body a blur of motion, crashing toward Ethan with overwhelming pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wherever he passed, the mountains shattered, stone exploding into dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ethan didn’t flinch. He clenched his fist, raised his arm, and met the attack head-on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A surge of crimson energy burst from his body, laced with the power of the Domain of the Dead—raw, destructive force that could tear the world apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Deathless Sovereigns collided in a brutal, direct strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time and space twisted and unraveled around them, the impact sending shockwaves across the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Origin Mountain trembled violently. Massive boulders broke loose and thundered down the slopes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their power was evenly matched. It was just a test of strength, but neither gained the upper hand. The balance between them was razor-thin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’re... they’re both monsters!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding zombies gasped in awe. Just one punch had looked like the end of the world. The sheer scale of destruction was beyond anything they’d imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless didn’t let up. He launched another flurry of punches, each one heavier than the last, his momentum building like a storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan dodged and blocked with fluid precision. He looked like he was under pressure, but there was no panic in his movements—he was in control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every clash between them sent out shockwaves that rippled through the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their Absolute Domains twisted together, splitting the world in two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless’s expression remained calm, his battle instincts razor-sharp. \"You’re strong. I’ll give you that. A worthy opponent. But you’re too impatient. Give it another two years, and maybe—just maybe—you could’ve beaten me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? That so...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan’s voice dripped with disdain. This guy was way too full of himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, suddenly, a massive wave of psychic energy surged into the battlefield, wrapping around Ethan’s space. Even the Domain of the Dead was compressed under the pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Nightwraith—ranked third among the Deathless Sovereigns—finally making his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t hold back. His psychic force poured out like a dam breaking, flooding the area. Even though he’d already burned through a ton of energy trying to take down the Dreadnought-class Starcruiser earlier, his power was still terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the might of a true Deathless Sovereign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wraithbind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lilith’s voice rang out from the side, laced with eerie energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind Ethan, two wraiths silently materialized, cloaked in black smoke. They slithered toward his arms, wrapping around them like ghostly chains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the same move she’d used to bind the Leviathan of the North. That deep-sea behemoth had a body tougher than anything, but even it had been paralyzed by this technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan felt his arms tighten, a cold numbness creeping in. It was like being grabbed by the hands of the dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t fully bound, but his movements were sluggish, stiff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The raging power of the Domain of the Dead was being held back by Nightwraith’s psychic assault, and Ethan’s physical strength was being suppressed by Lilith’s curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now you see... the gap between us,\" Endless said, the only one left unrestrained—his role clear: the finisher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t waste a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Ethan pinned down, this was the perfect chance. If he couldn’t land a hit now, he didn’t deserve the title of strongest Deathless Sovereign.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He poured everything into his next strike—his full strength, his Temporal Domain, all of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ethan’s stiffened body was instantly swallowed by the Temporal Domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time accelerated a thousandfold. Everything within it was meant to be reduced to dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless’s eyes burned with intensity as he closed in at blinding speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nothing... escapes time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>",1429,"2026-06-02T09:29:29.224Z",1,"novelbin.me","d21386ae25febf7276776fb4dd0a54249145442db690df9547da89dd4c1b2e5a","apocalypse-king-of-zombies-chapter-890","apocalypse-king-of-zombies-chapter-888",1329,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-king-of-zombies-cover.jpg"]
