Chapter 2335 Critical Moment!

“It is absolutely going to work out!”

Li Yao shouted, “Think about it. Did we not crush the most ferocious enemies in the past with exactly the same move, including your antecedent ‘Blood Stripe Virus’? It’s all about dragging the enemy into the area that we are most familiar with before beating them with our abundant experience!”

Pondering for a long time, the mental devil said, “But why do I still feel ill at ease?”

“There is no time to feel ill at ease!”

Li Yao struggled to sustain the fire of his soul from dying out as he grimaced. “We can’t defeat him, and we can’t run away. What other solutions do you have except this? There’s no time to hesitate. Just listen to me. Let’s do it!”

While talking, he simply pressed the mental devil’s head down, stopping it from further swallowing the dark forces released by Blackstar the Great.

The terrifying illusions were immediately more vivid and hideous. Li Yao’s brain was almost riddled with holes.

Li Yao grunted, pretending that he was too seriously wounded to use the Colossus anymore. The flames of spiritual energy around the “Gold Vulture” dimmed to the minimum, and it could not resist the attacks of “h.e.l.lstar” at all. The plate armor made of superalloys all fell apart, revealing the broken framework.

In secret, however, Li Yao focused all his mental power and bombarded the gate at the deepest part of his brain, which seemed to be leading to the mysterious world “Earth”, forcing the gate to open again.

Come on, Wuying Qi. I am already so “weak” now. It’s time to possess me!

Li Yao licked the blood at the corners of his lips while he smiled intimidatingly with soundless roars, As long as most of your soul enters my brain, I will immediately show you how powerful “Earth” is!

His remarkable acting skills seemed to be really working.

The hundred crazily waving metal tentacles around “h.e.l.lstar” gradually slowed down. The water that was extremely thick just now became much thinner. It was almost like Blackstar the Great was not in a hurry to destroy Li Yao but was evaluating his status right now—especially his mental status.

Come on, come on, just crawl into daddy’s brain!

With a telepathic thought, Li Yao intentionally inputted excessive spiritual energy to the head of the “Gold Vulture”, resulting in the explosion of a piece of magical equipment that was about to be destroyed earlier. Then, the head of the Colossus tilted backward.

It was a “weakness” that he intentionally exposed to Wuying Qi!

Wuying Qi was indeed intrigued. “h.e.l.lstar” revealed its true self in the swirl condensed by the dark water. The six enormous faces on it were particularly thoughtful and hideous, and the six b.l.o.o.d.y mouths opened at the same time, spitting out shapeless black forces that interweaved into an enormous helical sting stabbing at Li Yao.

He’s coming!

Closing his eyes, Li Yao could clearly sense the enormity, dominance, and cruelty of Wuying Qi’s mental world. The invisible helical sting seemed to be made of infinite blood and unrested souls who had dispersed in the universe. When it was still a distance away from the “Gold Vulture”, the cries and screams were already delivered into Li Yao’s brain clearly.

Li Yao couldn’t be more familiar with such a technique.

Blackstar the Great was about to establish a “mental bridge” between their brains before he launched the soul invasion.

It was like when two stars.h.i.+ps were engaged in a “boarding battle”, the attacker would have to pierce the invasion channel deep in the defender so that the troops could be deployed incessantly.

Li Yao was overjoyed, but he knew that he must not expose himself right now. Should there be any anomaly in his soul, all his endeavors would be for nothing.

The invisible helical sting finally touched the breastplate of the Gold Vulture softly.

From “h.e.l.lstar”, black ripples flooded into the Gold Vulture quickly along the helical sting.

However—

Li Yao was still dwelling in the fantasy of a final battle with Wuying Qi’s soul when he suddenly had a sense of wariness. What took Wuying Qi’s soul so long? And why were the sharp ends of the hundred metal tentacles of “h.e.l.lstar” all opening like blossoming flowers?

“Not good!”

Li Yao shrieked. The fire of his soul was suddenly burning more furiously than ever, and the gold flames of spiritual energy on the “Gold Vulture” that just dimmed became dazzling gold b.a.l.l.s again!

The moment he reestablished his defense, the rapidly-revolving spiral sting already pierced at the spiritual residence of the “Gold Vulture”. A mental attack that was devoid of any feeling of “occupation” but filled with pure destruction exploded inside the spiritual residence right around Li Yao!

BOOM!

The whole world seemed to be gone, as if Li Yao’s soul had been moved from reality to a mental world that Wuying Qi had carefully constructed.

Billions of people who were once ma.s.sacred by Wuying Qi turned into hideous ghosts and lunged at Li Yao with hollow, bleeding eyes, trying to rip apart his soul and make him one of them.

By the time Li Yao’s self-consciousness finally struggled to get away from the terrible quake of the soul, the limbs of the Gold Vulture had already been tied up by the metal tentacles of “h.e.l.lstar”.

The sharp ends of a few tentacles had even drilled into the plate armor of the Gold Vulture, fixating the two Colossi tightly.

His domain was suppressed, his Colossus was locked, and he had failed the mental compet.i.tion!

Then, “h.e.l.lstar” split apart.

The round structure that looked like a sea urchin separated into two hemispheres, revealing a circle of cannons below the sh.e.l.l that could cover 360 degrees. On the circular rail that surrounded the torso of the Colossus, a thousand ultimate marrow crystals of the highest purity had been embedded. The energy contained inside each marrow crystal could be drained in half a second’s shooting, but the next marrow crystal would immediately replace it in the next 0.1 seconds so that the most destructive firepower could be output incessantly!

The four limbs of the Gold Vulture had been tethered by the metal tentacles, and it was impossible to break so many tentacles in only one second. In the meantime, the cannons on “h.e.l.lstar” shot out hundreds of purple flames without any mercy, drowning the Gold Vulture completely!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The dull soundwaves, mixed with the destructive blasts, swept across the torso and the limbs of the Gold Vulture. Under the “help” of the intense blast, the Gold Vulture finally broke free from the bondage of “h.e.l.lstar”, at the price of losing two arms and one left leg.

Even so, it failed to escape from the continuous tracing and bombardment of the cannons and was blown all the way to the bottom of the ocean again. Then, it was even blown into the undersea plateau for almost a hundred meters. For a moment, the sand and mud at the bottom of the ocean were all surging, further adding to the chaos and darkness of the undersea world!

Violent flames were flowing all over Li Yao’s body and even in his brain. He did not even have the strength to vomit blood now.

The Colossus was nervily connected to the user. The pain of two arms on the brink of destruction and the left leg being completely minced and ripped off was delivered to Li Yao’s central nerves without any reserve, giving him the illusion that he had truly lost three limbs.

“How is it possible?!”

What suffered the greater strike was his mind. His head in a mess, he could not believe what had just happened at all. He had clearly taken every factor into calculation, and Blackstar the Great was supposed to regard him as a backup choice of possession. Why else would he have offered Li Yao the precious Imperial Fire Pearl for training?

It was such a great opportunity. The fat meat had cooked itself and sent itself to his mouth, but why did Blackstar the Great not take the bait? It… did not make any sense!

Little Black flowed forward in time and extinguished the fire on his body, but the trauma in his heart could not be healed.

The devastating damage on the Gold Vulture could not be repaired for the time being either. The Colossus had only 30% combat ability left at best. Did it stand any chance of winning at all when faced with such a ferocious opponent as “h.e.l.lstar”?

“I know what you are up to exactly, but you seem to misunderstand my purpose.”

Wuying Qi’s gloomy voice came from the darkness with faint mockery. “For me, you do have some value to be recycled, but that’s in somewhere else and not here. You will know it very soon!”

The cannons at the center of “h.e.l.lstar” radiated the most dazzling brilliance again. This time, dozens of mystic rays congregated into the sharpest scythe of energy, which was about to be launched out and chop off the remaining three limbs of the Gold Vulture.

But it all happened too fast. In the deeper darkness, three rhombus crystals slid over without a sound and accelerated abruptly when it was only a hundred meters away. Piercing through the spiritual s.h.i.+eld of “h.e.l.lstar”, they exploded brutally on the sh.e.l.l of the Colossus that was full of thorns, pus.h.i.+ng it away for a few meters. The rus.h.i.+ng scythe of spiritual energy naturally deviated from the original course and brushed past the Gold Vulture’s head, leaving a crack dozens of meters long on the bottom of the ocean not far away!

“Who is it?”

Wuying Qi was both surprised and infuriated. The two hemispheres of “h.e.l.lstar” that split apart before were closed seamlessly again, and the whole Colossus began to roll nonstop, increasing the defense to the highest.

“You may find it hard to believe.”

Long Yangjun’s sharp telepathic thoughts came from the depths of the water. “But I’m your ancestor!”

The Colossus “Heavenly Crystal” leaped out of the ocean and fought Wuying Qi’s “h.e.l.lstar” in Li Yao’s place just now!

“Long Yangjun!”

Li Yao, who thought that he was dead for sure, was almost cheering, dancing, and offering flowers to Long Yangjun.

He knew that he was a charismatic man. As he expected, even Long Yangjun, a eunuch from a corrupted, obsolete society who did nothing but to cause trouble, had been edified by him into a selfless good guy in the new society!

“You are… Dongfang Mingyue!”

Wuying Qi was keen enough to recognize her ident.i.ty from her spiritual waves that were spreading out. “How interesting. You are perhaps the only person in the entire Imperium that I cannot completely see through. I did not know that you were complicit with ‘Vulture Li Yao’. This is really interesting!”
