Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 2130 Arrival of More Dreadful Enemies!

Burned by the young man’s firm eyes, and sensing the strength that bellowed out of his soul, Li Yao couldn’t help but smile, “Alright, let’s figure out what we can do to get away from Li Lingfeng’s hunting again!”

Li Jialing said, “There is no way to escape at all here. On an abandoned planet of such a harsh environment, where we do not even have a starship, how exactly can we get away from Li Lingfeng’s hunting?”

“It is exactly because of the harsh environment that we have a chance of survival!”

Narrowing his eyes, Li Yao scanned the environment and the speed and direction of the wind. “Trust me. The large starships brought by Li Lingfeng are not suitable for the battles in the standard gravity within the atmosphere, even less so on a planet where the magnetic field and the spiritual energy are so disordered and the weather is so extreme. They are like whales that are stranded, and they are much more unused to the environment here than we are.

“As for starships, hehe, who says we don’t have any? Aren’t there plenty right there?”

Li Yao pointed at the sky.

In the sky were the Immortal Cultivators’ starships brought by Li Lingfeng!

“Even if we are left with no choice and Li Lingfeng pushes us into desperation—”

Li Yao sniffed. “I will still have an ultimate method to reverse failure into victory, and he will definitely be caught unprepared!”

Li Jialing grew very curious, unable to come up with any ultimate countermeasure now that they were already stuck in such a dangerous environment. He couldn’t help but stutter, “What… What can that be?”

“Very simple. Since you are Li Lingfeng’s most important leverage—”

Grinning hideously, Li Yao opened his fingers and attracted the young man to him. Shaking a sharp dagger out of his Cosmos Ring, he stuck it to the young man’s carotid artery and declared gravely, “If Li Lingfeng really goes too far, I will simply kill you and destroy his only leverage. He and I will die with each other. Let’s see who’s more scared!”

Li Jialing was covered in cold sweat. “What kind of Cultivator are you?”

“The kind of Cultivator that can survive.”

Li Yao retreated his dagger, licked his lips, and observed the sky for a while. Then, the color of his face suddenly changed. “Not good. Li Lingfeng has discovered us. How is it possible? It’s such a large planet… Right, we caused tremendous spiritual waves and infrared radiations during the crash. It is only reasonable that he can track us down. Let’s go now!”

Their crystal suits were undamaged in the crash, and there was sufficient fuel in the reactors. Therefore, with dazzling light spurting out of the power rune arrays, they turned into two streaks of brilliance and charged at the mountains where the terrain was most unfavorable and the thunderstorms were most intense.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Li Lingfeng’s starships opened fire nonstop, building highly-rising volcanoes around the two of them. The magma and the metal shrapnel smashed at them overwhelmingly, only to be blocked by Li Yao’s volatile and ever-moving tentacles of spiritual energy.

Before Li Lingfeng’s Colossus approached, Li Yao and Li Jialing already marched into the forest of lightning that was enshrouded in black fogs and the cries of gloomy winds one step in advance!

BOOM! CRACK!

The environment within the thunderstorm was even tougher than they imagined.

Under the blowing wind, the raindrops that were surrounded by electric arcs seemed to be on parallel to the ground and shooting at them vehemently like bullets, raising colorful ripples on their spiritual shields.

The bolts of lightning as thick as boas and as hideous as dragons struck the ground straightly, spraying countless balls of lightning on the surface of the planet, which did not disperse until more than ten minutes later.

The highly-rising folds on the ground were all shattered by the lightning strikes. The smaller rocks had all been blown away by the furious wind, colliding with each other at a high speed in midair into a weird belt of floating stones. They were like the sharpest teeth of the monsters!

The magnificent power of the great nature was something that even the starships of the Immortal Cultivators did not dare to mess around with easily.

Even Li Yao and Li Jialing had to slow down in the thunderstorm despite their monstrousness. Increasing the intensity of the spiritual shields, they tried hard to resist the scourge of the wind, the lightning, and the broken stones.

With the help of the pale light when lightning illuminated the sky, Li Yao vaguely saw a collapsed building standing deep within the folds and mountains not far away.

When they drew near to observe more carefully, they discovered that it was a religious building that looked like a temple.

Perhaps it was high, magnificent, and awe-inspiring hundreds of years ago, which could be seen from the dark, gargantuan statues that were still standing inside the temple…

But right now, after hundreds of years of scourges from the lightning, corrosions from the wind, and blows of stones, the splendid temple in the past had only the shivering, dilapidated walls left. The iron-made, impressive statues had also been split apart by the bolts of lightning. They were more or less melted and inclined to two sides.

“This should be a ‘Chiyou Temple’.”

Observing the building carefully for a while, Li Jialing said in a low voice, “People of the Sand Primitive Sector worshipped the ‘Chiyou Cult’ in the past. The Chiyou Temples were the most important buildings in their civilization. They were mostly the hearts of the towns or the tribes.”

Looking at the collapsed temple before his eyes, Li Yao had a lot of mixed feelings.

It had been more than a hundred years since Su Changfa told him the stories about the Martial Meritocrats Sector and the Sand Primitive Sector for the first time in Kunlun.

No matter what a barbaric, zealous, and bloodthirsty role the people of the Sand Primitive Sector played in the destruction of the Martial Meritocrats Sector, it was already no longer important, because their civilization embraced its doom almost immediately after the civilization of the Martial Meritocrats Sector did.

Ashes to ashes, and dust to dust. The Martial Meritocrats Sector in the past turned into the Land of Sins, and the only things left by the Sand Primitive Sector were probably the collapsed Chiyou Temples.

The civilizations of mankind were sometimes extremely tensile and powerful, and yet, they sometimes could also be as vulnerable as the candles in a storm that might completely die out at any moment!

While Li Yao was pondering, creepy noises suddenly echoed from the collapsed temple. Then, hundreds of half-transparent energy entities crawled out!

The spiritual energy around was highly disordered, but the energy entities did not seem affected at all. They simply hissed at Li Yao and Li Jialing aloud before they lunged at the strangers aggressively!

“Apparitions!”

Li Jialing exclaimed in shock, “The apparitions that evolved based on the negative feelings such as hatred, regrets, and violence of the people of the Sand Primitive Sector in the old days after their destruction?”

“They are apparitions? They don’t seem very different from regular devils to me.”

Li Yao smiled and moved his hands quickly to cast his spell. Crimson flames of spiritual energy soon condensed into the image of a giant almost five meters tall. With dazzling brilliance beaming out, it extended its arms agilely and grabbed a few apparitions without any trouble. After crumbling them into the purest negative emotions, it devoured the prey.

Naturally, it was the skill of the mental devil.

In the first place, the mental devil and the extraterrestrial devils came from the same origin. One might even say that it was a very special extraterrestrial devil in a unique form.

In the ultimate battle in the Star Glory Federation, it also absorbed all the tenebrum energy of the “Internet devil” and gained a deeper understanding of the structure of the tenebrum energy.

The so-called apparitions were not even real extraterrestrial devils but only slightly more advanced than the pure negative emotions. However many of them there were, they were like lambs sent to a tiger when they approached the mental devil.

The mental devil gulped in the apparitions that were lunging over and soon swallowed all of them without leaving out any. Still unsatisfied, it uttered the weird noises of hunger and ravenousness.

The remaining apparitions wasted no time running back into the wind and lightning, not having the courage to mess around with the “unparalleled devil”.

Li Jialing, on the other hand, was truly dumbfounded. He did not expect that everything his “Brother Yao” spoke was true. When the man said that he was going to eat the apparitions alive, he was indeed swallowing all of them without any concession.

He couldn’t help but have even more complicated remarks on “Brother Yao”.

“What is going on?”

Li Yao cleaned up all the apparitions in the Chiyou Temple quickly. But there was confusion all over his face. Narrowing his eyes, he looked back beyond the thunderstorm. “Li Lingfeng and his lot did not chase after us, did they?”

“It seems they didn’t.”

Li Jialing was slightly dazed. “Is it because the lightning, thunders, tornadoes, and stones here are too violent for their starships to break in?”

“Even so, they should have small assault warships, all-terrain armed shuttles, and crystal suits, right? Shouldn’t they send a large batch of warriors to invade the place and surround us?”

Li Yao’s nose flipped fast, as if he smelled danger from the air that still carried the scent of electric currents. “Not right. Something’s seriously not right. Li Lingfeng… seems to have run into some trouble?”

Outside of the thunderstorm, very feeble explosions that sounded like broken bubbles were vaguely coming over from the obscure horizon.

Li Yao’s expression changed quickly. He was even more anxious than when he discovered that Li Lingfeng had followed him here.

“The eight starships that Li Lingfeng brought seem to have been assaulted, and it was quite an unexpected attack?”

Li Yao mumbled, “Who is insane enough to attack an expert of the prime generation of the Li family, one of the four Kurfürst families, at the heartland of the Imperium of True Human Beings?”

Li Jialing observed, “Well, isn’t it you, Brother You?”

“No, that’s not the same.”

Li Yao’s eyelids twitched, and his expression was more and more grave. “I only played a trick on Li Lingfeng and went on a rampage while the place was out of his reach. It is impossible for me to have a head-on clash with Li Lingfeng.

“But right now… Somebody seems to be annihilating both Li Lingfeng and his eight starships!

“Who can possibly have such capabilities, such boldness, and such precise control over the timing?

“Is it an accident, or has somebody been observing Li Lingfeng from the dark the whole time, waiting for the opportunity to cut his throat?

“Let’s go to the Chiyou Temple!”

Li Yao circled around the Chiyou Temple with Li Jialing for a few rounds, but instead of hiding inside the Chiyou Temple, they found a natural underground fissure behind the temple. The result of Li Yao’s scanning suggested that the fissure was connected to a complicated cave with many branches, which led to the surface of the planet through another fissure five kilometers away. Since there were exits on both ends, it was the best shelter for them.

Inside the underground fissure, the roars of the thunders were finally less disturbing.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Li Yao closed his right fingers and touched the center of his eyebrow where the spiritual root was located. Spreading out his senses to the maximum, which passed through the chaotic thunderstorm, he “watched” where Li Lingfeng was at.
