Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 2642: Collapse of the Mental Battlefield

“Warriors of the Imperium, whether you belonged to the Astounding Thunder Fleet, or the four Kurfürst families, or the Business Alliance of Ten Thousand Sectors, or the local troop at the border, you should have all realized that our common home is at the most dangerous moment!”

Lei Chenghu’s voice echoed among thousands of starships and in the blood of every soldier. “The Imperium is now caught in unprecedented chaos and indescribable evil. Once the capital collapses, the Imperium will collapse, our home will collapse, and even mankind will collapse as a whole!

“Nobody except us can prevent our home from sinking into the abyss. For the honor of the Imperium, for our home, for our future and the future of our families, and for the future of the true path of immortality that we’ve sworn to protect, we have to fight until the end!

“The fate of the Imperium lies in our hands! Ours!

“Besides...

“The shameless scoundrel who has stolen the capital brazenly pretends to be Blackstar the Great. That is too outrageous!

“The real Blackstar the Great is the greatest, purest, and noblest Immortal Cultivator, who devoted everything for his beloved Imperium and mankind a thousand years ago and passed away! His impostor in the Imperium is nothing more than an evil and filthy extraterritorial devil. We will never admit that it is Blackstar the Great!

“Summon your courage, grab your saber, march into the capital, and cut the extraterritorial devil who dares to impersonate our great emperor into pieces so that they will know the consequences of messing with Immortal Cultivators!”

Emotionally, Lei Chenghu slashed his iron arm, as if he were slashing a gap in the vacuum that led to the capital.

Roars echoed on countless starships. Marching into the capital and defending the Imperium was the greatest dream of every soldier of the Imperium.

“The future of the Imperium lies in our hands.”

“We will be the master of the Imperium after we win this war!”

Such a realization was enough to motivate every ambitious Immortal Cultivator to fight anything in the whole universe!

Lei Chenghu finished the battle mobilization quickly. He looked back at Yun Xuefeng and Song Yushi, the commanders of the coalition fleet of the four families, who had complicated feelings.

In order to unite all the forces that could be united, Lei Chenghu and Boss Bai did not execute the two renowned persons of the four families after their fleets were crushed. Instead, he kept them alive.

After figuring out Wuying Qi’s scheme in the capital through the live stream, Yun Xuefeng and Song Yushi were dumbfounded and intimidated.

Wuying Qi’s primary target was the ace fleets of the four families. Naturally, they would do anything to stop that.

What choices did they have except to work with Lei Chenghu?

The havoc in the Seven Seas Space Zone was settled down so quickly exactly because the two commanders had surrendered.

Of course, Lei Chenghu did not really trust them. He did not let them go back to their fleets but kept them on Iron Torrent as hostages. They sent Lei Chenghu’s orders to their fleets from here.

“The true face of the extraterritorial devil who impersonates His Majesty has been exposed.”

Staring at Yun Xuefeng and Song Yushi, Lei Chenghu said coldly, “The evidence is right before our eyes. Do you have anything to say?”

Yun Xuefeng and Song Yushi looked at each other and shook their heads like roosters that had just lost a fight.

“Very good. Issue commands to your fleet!”

Lei Chenghu said, “Focus 70% of the spiritual energy on the shield and ask all the crew to stay in the protective gem and be prepared for the severest radiation and interference. The capital is probably still under the scourge of the solar storm. We need to pay more attention to the sun than to the enemy troops.”

Yun Xuefeng and Song Yushi left to give the orders under the watch of several soldiers.

After they left, Boss Bai’s unremarkable face appeared on the light beam.

“Navigation signals are being sent from the capital increasingly. The space gate is open. It’s possible for the starships to jump over in half an hour!”

Boss Bai grimaced and said, “My troop has made anti-radiation and anti-interference preparations and is ready to jump. What about you, General Lei?”

“Fantastic!”

Lei Chenghu said, “My troop will be ready for the space jump in twenty minutes!”

“That’s good.”

Boss Bai thought for a moment and coughed. “However, have you prepared your soldiers for brainwashing?”

Lei Chenghu asked, “How did you do that?”

Boss Bai replied, “By playing the movies for them, of course!”

Lei Chenghu was puzzled. “What movies?”

Boss Bai asked, “You really don’t know?”

Lei Chenghu: “...”

Boss Bai said, “General Lei, don’t burst into rage. Really, there’s no need to be so angry. It has nothing to do with me. I really did not know that Li Yao would adopt such an unscrupulous strategy. Of course, I knew that Li Yao was unscrupulous, but I did not know that he could be so unscrupulous.

“Actually, I’m not very familiar with Li Yao. We’re barely friends. Many people on our side despise him too, and we are only working with him under his threat. So, we wouldn’t care if you want to settle the score with him after the war is over. We might even cheer for you!

“However, the environment at the capital is still super complicated. Many places are still plagued by Wuying Qi’s brainwashing waves. So, for safety reasons, I suggest you play the movies that Li Yao sent to us for all your soldiers before we set off. It’s going to be a vaccine!

“My men have watched it anyway. It’s up to you whether or not to play it for your men. However, I need to remind you that the movies have also been boosted by the sun and are wandering in the Empyreal Terminus Sector as information streams. If your men receive the clips of the information streams when they are unprepared, it might be overwhelming and lead to dire consequences!

“This is really for your own sake. I’m not laughing at the Immortal Cultivators at all. Hahahahahahaha... Sorry. All in all, if you have better anti-brainwashing methods, that’s fine, but if you don’t have any for the time being, I think Li Yao’s shameless trick might be worth trying!”

Boss Bai’s shoulders moved up and down as he tried to hold back his laugh. He cut the communication in time before he laughed out aloud.

Lei Chenghu’s face that was about to burst into a rage was reflected on the light beam.

He clenched his fists and loosened them, before he clenched them again. He considered for a long time, and finally, when hundreds of his cerebral vessels were broken because he thought too deeply, he roared, “F*ck!”

In the end, he couldn’t help but turn on the communication channel again.

“All... All soldiers...”

Stammering, Lei Chenghu began the most difficult speech in his two hundred years of life as a general.

...

In the mental battlefield in the Gold Crystal Pyramid underneath the capital planet...

“You’re screwed! Wuying Qi, you’re doomed!”

Li Yao raged, “Your Next Sun Plan is now over! Too many people have been woken up from your brainwashing and realized your evil nature. Also, our fleet and Lei Chenghu’s are jumping over. We can clear the mess and change the fate of the New Imperium!”

His confident thoughts swept across the whole mental network like surging tides, trying to reach the depths of everyone’s head.

The first people to take the hit were the imperial soldiers and the Deep Sea Fleet that were right around the capital planet.

“Did you hear me? You idiots, why are you still not waking up? Are you really going to fight for this devil until you kill all your family members and destroy your home in person?”

Li Yao roared desperately, this time not to attack Wuying Qi’s soul but to awaken more Immortal Cultivators, “Just think about what you’ve been doing! You’re destroying the capital and killing billions of people including your family and yourself! Is this really your way to renew the Imperium?

“No, you’ve been fooled, hypnotized, and enchanted by this devil!

“He is not Wuying Qi. The real Blackstar the Great died a thousand years ago. This is a devil, one that has been contaminated by the Mad Armageddon. It has absorbed some of Wuying Qi’s memories and is tricking you under Wuying Qi’s appearance!

“If you remember that you’re Immortal Cultivators, soldiers of the Imperium, and reformists who are determined to renew the Immortal Cultivator, it’s time to wake up and resist this devil! You might not trust me, but you should at least trust the God of War! Lei Chenghu’s fleet has arrived at the capital. He’s the real pillar of the reformists. He’s the one who deserves your loyalty!”

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

Deafening thunders burst out across the mental battlefield, followed by the most dazzling bolts of lightning, which struck the dizzy souls and made them wake up faster in quivers.

As more and more puppets were shaken and grew suspicious of them, the black sun that represented Wuying Qi’s soul withered and declined, like a star that was at the end of its life.

At this moment, a brilliant streak of crystal light pierced into the black sun from its rear.

“Don’t think that I don’t exist just because I do not want to argue with you!”

Long Yangjun uttered the most earsplitting roar, “Nobody in the sea of stars can ever bend me. Go to hell!”
