Chapter 3046 Skysplit Tower
Li Yao took a deep breath and licked the blood flowing out of his throat.
The continuous fierce battles had pushed the vitality of every cell to the limit. He felt that his internal organs were burning and his stomach was rumbling
The feeling made the blood that he swallowed back to his throat sweeter than ever. It stimulated his every nerve like fireworks. Li Yao controlled the ‘Arsonist’ to squat down.
The deep black shell turned orange due to the high-speed friction between the spiritual flames and the air. All the spurts on the back of the crystal suit were ripped apart, as if countless bright eyes had opened at the same time. The earth below their feet was cracking, and the spider-net-like cracks even extended to hundreds of meters away!
“You’re not thinking of escaping through the air, are you? Absolutely not. There’s no cover in the air. You will be shot down!”
Lu Qingchen sensed Li Yao’s determination and shouted.
However, it was too late.
When more than ten ferocious beasts lunged at Li Yao at the same time, the dozens of power units around the ‘Arsonist’ spurted out torrents that looked like volcanic eruptions at the same time. The blast was so powerful that the ground within a hundred square meters was blown away. It was like a messy crater after a meteor shower.
And with the counterforce, the arsonist leapt high into the sky!
The earsplitting sonic boom shattered the strengthened glass windows of all the skyscrapers dozens of kilometers nearby. It even stimulated the brains of many ferocious beasts and made them scream.
Many ferocious beasts were quick to react. They followed the footsteps of the arsonist and jumped high into the air. Some of them even extended their membranes and wings from their arms, trying to fly above the arsonist.
Little did he know that everything had been within Li Yao’s calculations.
In the seemingly miserable escape just now, Li Yao had scanned the physiological structure and methods of attack of every kind of ferocious beast clearly. He had even deduced hundreds of times in his mind in order to come up with an adventure that seemed crazy but was at least fifty percent certain.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The arsonist suddenly moved sideways and fell down abruptly.
As it turned out, he had appeared right above the few ferocious beasts. The iron feet that were wreathed in spiritual flames and electric arcs smashed down heavily. The few ferocious beasts were blown into smithereens instantly, like crimson fireworks blossoming in midair. The ‘incendiary’ took the opportunity to accelerate and shoot to a higher altitude.
At this moment, several ferocious beasts were still flapping their membranes and wings and biting Li Yao’s back.
Hiu! Hiu! Hiu!
The steel tentacles that were dancing crazily like vipers suddenly darted out and pierced through several ferocious beasts, before they were pulled to his side brutally.
At this moment, the arsonist was already two to three hundred meters in the air.
It was the height that was most likely to be discovered by the firepower on the ground.
As far as one’s eyes could reach, a large area of fireballs, electric arcs, and colorful mist suddenly appeared among the broken walls and attacked Li Yao in midair like a raging storm.
The few ferocious beasts that had been captured by the arsonists, on the other hand, had been stomped on by Li Yao and served as the best meat shields. Before they had the chance to scream, they were already riddled with holes by the fireballs, electric arcs, and acids. Then, they were burnt into ash and blown to smithereens.
In the blink of an eye, with the help of the few ‘shields’, not only did Li Yao get a precious distance to run away, he also saw through the dense distribution of firepower between the ground and the high buildings and the seemingly impenetrable web of fire. The gaps were as thin as gossamer. Under his perfect manipulation, the giant soldier was as agile as a flying sword made of lightning, leaving dazzling blurred shadows behind it. It was about to dash out of the last few gaps of the dense web of fire.
Right then, Li Yao crashed into the ‘wall’.
There was nothing above Li Yao’s head except for all kinds of eyes, mystic rays, and fog that neither visible nor invisible light could penetrate. But he felt that he had entered a deep ocean before he even entered the fog.
Pushed by billions of tons of force from all directions, his every cell was bursting. It was the feeling when he first arrived in the City of Silver through the black gaps!
The Giant God Soldier was also sending out all kinds of blood-freezing alarms, sounds of metal fracturing, and explosions of magical equipment. On the light beam that was twisted to the extreme, all the performance parameters were dropping crazily like falling off a cliff.
Li Yao, Lu Qingchen, and the ‘arsonist’ were all blown back.
Then, it was wreathed in hundreds of wires, acids, and electric arcs.
Even the best super giant soldier in the Pangu Universe had been riddled with holes and shattered. All the strengthened plate armor on its body had almost exploded.
Li Yao, on the other hand, felt that he had been soaked in magma after being cut into pieces.
He could not help but feel light-headed and fell from the sky. The entire world was overturned.
Right then, he saw the tower.
The magnificent, magnificent, magnificent, sacred, ancient, and primitive tower that could not be described in any language in the human world.
The high tower rose up from the ground like a silver tree. Its high and interconnected roots were like continuous mountains that occupied more than ten blocks. Hundreds of skyscrapers and bizarre-shaped buildings had been built based on it. They were connected to each other through thousands of pathways, like soldiers guarding it.
It was glittering and emitting flawless silver brightness. Li Yao maximized his vision and failed to find any window or gap on its surface.
It seemed to be made of the stars of the entire universe.
Around it, three hundred meters away from the ground, there were three enormous silver balls that looked like floating fortresses. However, even the most magnificent fortress paled in comparison to the high tower.
The skyscrapers of Silver City, in order to accommodate the size of the Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan, were much taller than the buildings of ordinary human beings and could easily reach thousands of meters high.
However, in front of the high tower, the skyscrapers that were unreachable a moment ago were as low and insignificant as the weeds below the trees.
The tower was growing upwards. It even broke through the mist that blocked the sky and created a giant swirl that was swirling slowly. Looking through the swirl, Li Yao saw… the universe.
At first, Li Yao thought that he was hallucinating
However, no matter how deeply he breathed and how much he soothed his nerves with his spiritual energy, he could see a splendid universe where endless stars were blossoming and floating in the clouds above the high tower.
It was as if the high tower was some sort of… bridge, some sort of cross-border bridge from the Pangu Universe to the even more brilliant and resplendent multiverse!
“Supreme Tower!”
Lu Qingchen released extremely excited soul waves.
“What did you say?” Li Yao snapped. “The Skysplit Tower is the name of the pivot of the City of Silver and the location of the other half of the ‘Fuxi’.
Lu Qingchen continued quickly. “However, although the City of Silver was built by the Pangu Civilization, the ‘Pantheon Tower’ was not built by them. It must’ve been hundreds of millions of years old and was most likely built by the ‘Black Wall Maker’. All the secrets about the primeval era are stored at the top of the ‘Pantheon Tower’!
“Is that so?”
Li Yao’s mind was deeply attracted by the ‘heavenly tower’. He felt that he had seen similar facilities a long, long time ago.
Moreover, his soul had been launched into the ‘Pangu Universe’ at the edge of the multiverse through similar facilities!
“How is that possible?”
Li Yao mumbled to himself. He felt that he was a moth that was about to break out of the cocoon and see the last ray of light. However, there was an insurmountable barrier between him and the final answer. A beast tide. An overwhelming beast tide. It was surging from all directions of the City of Silver, surrounding the ‘heavenly tower’ and launching the fiercest attack.
There were so many ferocious beasts that there was not the slightest gap from the ground to the skyscrapers. Even the weakest silver-white color had been swallowed, to the point that Li Yao had mistaken them for a black carpet of fungi or endless ants.
However, if one were to observe carefully, they would discover that they were the main force of the ferocious beasts. There were already more than ten giant beasts that were almost a hundred meters tall such as the ‘Armadillo Dragon’ in the army that was attacking the ‘Tower Tower’. There were also countless hideous and bizarre-shaped ferocious beasts.
It was a soul-stirring epic battle. Although it was just a confrontation on the ground inside the atmosphere, it gave the feeling that thousands of starships in the vacuum of the universe were colliding with each other. With the stimulation of the soundwaves, the blood-boiling and shocking effect was hundreds of times more intense.
The surface of the ‘heavenly tower’ was as smooth and flawless as jade. There were no gaps at all. Naturally, there were no facilities such as firing points, hangars, crystal suits, or ports for the Giant Soldiers.
However, the architects of the Pangu Civilization had built fortresses and heavy turrets that were as complicated as mazes around the lower half of the tower, as if a hundred thousand volcanoes were erupting at the same time. The destructive magma could swallow the lives of hundreds of ferocious beasts every second.
Although he was dozens of kilometers away, Li Yao could almost hear the crazy and desperate roars of the guards inside the fortress.
Just as Li Yao had said, they were engaged in an impossible war.
Their crazy firepower could temporarily resist the Vicious Beast Tide, but it could not resist the invasion of the virus.
As more and more guardians of the fortress were infected by the virus and turned into ferocious beasts, the small fortress seemed to be unable to accommodate his deformed and swollen body. Bloody tentacles extended out of the holes and declared a ‘mute fire’.
The Vicious Beast Tide moved forward slowly but firmly.
The army of viruses that looked like black spots was about to corrupt the ‘heavenly towers!!
