Chapter 3006 Splitting Waves
“We sensed it, too.”
Li Linghai said solemnly, “It is indeed weird. Generally speaking, even if a planet has an atmosphere and an ionosphere, the structure of its magnetic field should not be so unstable. Even though it was affected by the supernova outbreak, the shape of the magnetic field is still too weird. When the furious spiritual waves below the planet are displayed in the form of soundwaves, they are like the screams of ghosts in the deepest level of hell.
“However, even if there are ghosts in the Nether Spring, we will seal them and make sure that they do not touch Iron Fist at all!
“Excellent. Then take your places. Keep the Spiritual Nexus open at all times. I will send a lot of data about Iron Fist to you.”
The Fist King said, “When the power output of Iron Fist is maximized, you will activate it together. Fellow Cultivators, I’m counting on you!”
The hundreds of experts and the warriors who were slightly weaker but equally determined all agreed.
OI
At this moment, even the Immortal Cultivators who were hesitating a moment ago abandoned their distracting thoughts and focused their attention on their fists, weapons, and power units.
On the ancient giants, electromagnetism was surging, and planetary rings and meteoroids were roaring. But the anomalies of the universe could not affect them at all. Their attention was focused on the data and countdown that the boxing champion sent over.
“Three, two, one, activate!”
The Fist King, Li Yao, Ding Lingdang, Li Jialing, and almost a hundred other experts roared at the same time.
Led by Li Yao, dozens of Giant Soldiers shouldered Iron Fist. Colorful, thunderous flames spurted out of their backs and melded with the flames on Iron Fist. They stomped on the ancient star and jumped up!
The maximum output of the Giant God Soldier was naturally no match for the enormous starship that was several kilometers long. But the advantage of the Giant God Soldier was that the steering of the power unit and the adjustment of the output power were much more flexible. The direction and intensity of the impetus could be adjusted according to the structural changes of the starship at any time, in order to ensure that the structure of Iron Fist, which had been seriously damaged in the super high-intensity ‘gravity confrontation’, could be kept intact.
One inch, two inches, three inches, one foot, two feet, three feet, one meter, two meters, three meters!
Under the persistence of Li Yao and the dozens of experts, Iron Fist slowly and steadily ascended.
The movements of the experts were so gentle that the arms of the giant soldier seemed to have turned into soft feathers, which carried the life and hope of everyone on board.
Sensing that they were slowly but surely getting rid of the gravity of the ancient planet, everybody on board cheered. But the cheers only lasted several seconds before they resumed their work, no, their mission, in every second.
Above Iron Fist, Ding Lingdang, Yan Liren, and dozens of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators and Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators formed a solid shield.
It was true that the aura did not cover the entire planet. If they had enough time, fuel, and starships, they could’ve bypassed it from above.
But right now, many cabins of Iron Fist were on the verge of destruction. A lot of fuel was escaping and spurting out. Their structure was quite unstable, too, and they could fall apart at any moment. There was no way that they could resist the tearing force when they changed their route. Therefore, they had to force their way into the ring, which was the stone belt. Ding Lingdang, Yan Liren, and the rest of them had to keep their eyes wide open and focus on blocking all the meteoroids and stardust that might hit Iron Fist.
Standing in the furious stone belts was like being caught in the fiercest storm of bullets.
For ‘madmen’ such as Ding Lingdang and Yan Liren, it was not torture but excitement.
Controlling the Giant Soldier, Ding Lingdang punched Yan Liren.
Yan Liren smiled. He crushed the giant soldier into a ball and hid the sword on his back. Then
The dozens of Giant God Soldiers behind them opened fire at the same time. The dense barrage blew almost all the meteorites into powder, but a lot of the powder was still rushing close at a high speed in dazzling lasers.
Ding Lingdang’s fist and Yan Liren’s long sword were launched at the same time, forming three splendid mists of light that attracted all the cosmic dust nearby. Two colorful swirls seemed to have appeared in front of them and connected them to another space. All the meteoroids, debris, and dust were absorbed.
“The escape channel has been cleared. Now is the time. Fist King, Li Yao, come on!”
Below Iron Fist, the ancient giant seemed to have realized that its prey was about to run away. It was even more furious. Balls of plasma and thunderstorms were thrown out of the raging atmosphere and charged at Iron Fist precisely. Both Li Yao and his teammates and the boxing champion had poured all their spiritual energy and computational ability into the power unit and the control system. They could neither open the spiritual shield nor adjust the route in time. Therefore, they could only place all their hopes on Li Jialing and Li Linghai.
Li Jialing did not disappoint them. He was the first to rush down. The golden aura around him suddenly exploded and turned into thousands of streaks of brightness that darted at the incoming plasma and thunderstorms, triggering and neutralizing the powerful energy reactions in advance so that the enemy would be annihilated after the brilliant light balls expanded.
He was rushing so fast and so deep that he was almost swallowed by the giant light ball.
“Your Majesty!”
The Immortal Cultivators were both shocked and awed to see that the emperor himself was so tough that almost a hundred clusters of lightning were slashed apart by him. They gritted their teeth and rushed down.
As valiant as the emperor was, they could only be even more fearless than the emperor. One by one, they rushed to the front of Li Jialing and unleashed the thunderstorms that belonged to human beings on the ancient giants. More or less, they were restored to the demeanor of the desperadoes in the early years of the imperium. Thousands of light balls exploded simultaneously in the halo above his head, below his feet, and in the atmosphere, illuminating the dark vacuum as if it were daylight. No, it was an aurora night that was thousands of times more magnificent than daylight.
When Li Yao and the Fist King were discussing the team list, they had intentionally separated the Cultivators and the Immortal Cultivators. Some of the Cultivators and the Immortal Cultivators went to block the meteoroids, some carried Iron Fist, and some faced the furious ancient giants.
Although many Cultivators and Immortal Cultivators were still suspicious and wary of each other, they were still insignificant ants in front of the cosmic torrents and the might of the universe. They could only work together and grit their teeth to save other people while they were rescued by other people. Many Immortal Cultivators felt a strange yet familiar feeling when they were faced with the rapid meteoroid showers and the furious ocean of lightning. Memories of the past that had been buried for a long time were triggered.
Those who could reach the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage or even the Divinity Transformation Stage were all one-in-ten-thousand geniuses. They were the cream of the crop. Besides, they had been determined and ambitious since they were young. At that time, which of the ‘genius teenagers’ had not waved their swords at the sun, slashed at the sky, trained in the most dangerous stone belts, looked at the brilliant stars in the distance, and vowed to conquer the entire universe?
Since when had they gradually forgotten their ‘childish dreams’? They had learned how to scheme and haggle over every detail. They had learned how to calculate the gains and losses of everything before they attacked. They had learned how to grow eyes behind their heads. They had learned how to hide their true strength by taking a few steps back or even taking a few steps back. They had learned how to be like light and dust. They had even been complacent and thought that this was a sign of ‘maturity’?
Since when did they change their dream from conquering the sun, the moon, and the stars to conquering their own kind, and from becoming the dominator of the universe to being the head of a family, the chief of a family, the leader of a kingdom, the marquis, the duke, and the heir apparent?
Since when had they climbed to an unreachable position and sealed all their dreams, believing that it was impossible for them to climb any higher, only to spend all their time calculating how to eliminate the dissidents and kill the newcomers who were threatening them so that they could maintain their current position at any cost?
Election of the imperium… Hehe. Election of the imperium. What was the selection of the imperium compared to the endless power of a planet or even a supernova? When did they become so timid and gutless?
“Ah!”
Faced with the magnificence and brutality of the ancient star, the absurd and meaningless years in the minds of most of the Immortal Cultivators dimmed, but their primitive instincts gradually surfaced. They didn’t think or want anything right now. Instead, they punched and slashed in their hysterical roars, focusing their spirit and will on the burning bullets, shells, and bombs and shooting them out. They were going to defeat the ancient star and conquer the entire universe like the vows they made when they were young!
BOOM!
An earsplitting explosion burst out inside every expert’s brain and chest. Almost all their brain cells and internal organs had been blown to pieces.
A cluster of visible high-intensity plasma rushed out of the methane atmosphere toward Iron Fist and the experts like a tsunami made of billions of thunderbolts.
“Well
“
The phenomenon that apparently violated the common sense of astronomy made all the experts hold their breath.
“Good. Kill them!”
Li Jialing roared so hard that his throat was about to be torn apart. Faced with the overwhelming lightning and plasma, he unleashed a dominating aura that even Wu Yingqi, the Black Star Emperor, had never seen before. The aura of his gold saber rushed dozens of kilometers away and split into hundreds of dragons and griffins, attacking the lightning tide.
“Yes. Whatever it is, we are the Immortal Cultivators, the invincible Immortal Cultivators, the strongest Immortal Cultivators in the universe. Kill them all!”
Led by the emperor, all the Immortal Cultivators burnt their life, soul, and blood without caring about anything else. They turned every drop of blood into immense steam and spurted out of their pores, driving the Giant God Soldiers to perform their ultimate moves!
