Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

‘Black Dream’ Yun Haixin glanced at Li Yao.

Li Yao was still shivering.

This was also the usual reaction of the Spider Tank’s ‘Red Pig’. Although Yun Haixin did not like to set cold machines to be so humane, he could still turn a blind eye to it since it was the Major’s pet.

“More importantly, I can’t find out anything about him.

Yun Haixin continued her analysis. “As early as twenty years ago, when I left the imperium, not only did such a person not exist, he didn’t even have the resources to raise such a monster. Judging from his amazing performance over the past year, he must’ve been in the middle level of the Divinity

Transformation Stage or even higher. Such a shocking expert could not have lurked in the darkness for decades without anybody knowing, much less jumping out of a rock!

“According to the public files of the Star Ocean Imperium, he returned to the imperium as the commander-in-chief of the Black Wind Fleet. However, there was not such a cruel, shameless guy in the fleet of the Black Wind Fleet that had to flee to the edge of the sea of stars after being crushed by the

Sanctuary Alliance a hundred years ago. Otherwise, the Black Wind Fleet wouldn’t have been defeated so miserably. In other words, he probably joined the Black Wind Fleet during the expedition of the Black Wind Fleet to the edge of the sea of stars and took the title of ‘Black Wind King’ and the right to

command.

“Is it possible?

“An unknown man at the edge of the sea of stars snuck into the intimidating, unstoppable fleet of the black wind and stole the supreme command of the fleet. He even snuck into the imperium and turned it upside down, turning it into a powerful minister and even influencing the choice of the emperor of

the imperium? Can such an unbelievable thing be done in only several years?”

“Impossible.”

Li Yao shook his head and replied, “Absolutely not!”

“But the fact is that the Black Wind King does exist.

Chu Zhixiao said, “Besides, he rose up at the same time as the puppet king. The Black Wind King and the puppet king are like a mirror image of the Holy Alliance and the imperium.

“Yes. If they do exist, there is only one answer.

Yun Haixin thought to himself, There is also an extremely powerful organization, organization, or organization hiding in the periphery of the sea of stars. It is not as large as the Imperium of True Human Beings, but it is at least as large as twenty Sectors and boasts technology that is even more advanced

than that of the imperium or even the Holy Alliance in certain fields. Maybe, that is the nest of the extraterrestrial devils, and only then can the real ‘emissaries’ be produced!

Li Yao sighed.

“Then, in your opinion, are they one or two people?”

Chu Zhixiao continued.

Before Yun Haixin could reply, Yuan Kuo interrupted her. “It must be two people. The riot on Black Castle and the latest ‘zombie incident’ broke out at the same time. How could one person manipulate two plots at the same time?”

“That is not a problem.”

Yun Hai thought to himself, If the guy is really in the middle level of the Divinity Transformation Stage, he might split his soul into multiple parts and act at the same time. Or, is the form of ‘seven-star’ one or two people? Of course, the puppet king and the Black Wind King might be from the same

mysterious and enormous organization. Names are just their code names. They are not important.

“More importantly, their techniques are all unpredictable, unpredictable, and unpredictable. If we are not careful, our brains will be invaded, jammed, or even swallowed by them!

“This is a big problem.

“If we don’t take care of the brain virus that they spread out, it is very likely that they will run away even if we get close to them again. Seven Star, have you figured out anything from the methodology of brain invasion targeting the puppet king?”

“Yes.”

Every crystal camera on Guan Qixing’s face was glittering, He said in a low voice, “Ever since I was in close contact with the puppet king and had his brain and soul invaded so that he could control our retina and auditory nerves, I’ve captured his invasion mode and retrieved some interesting data.

“Tcan write a new set of ‘Antivirus Mental Defense Wall’ according to his invasion mode and inject it into the crystal processor of the ‘Red Pig’. It will be equipped with defense and tracking functions. In such a way, if I run into the puppet king again and he does the same thing again, the ‘Red Pig’ will be

able to interfere with his invasion and even inject a certain ‘tracking factor’ into his soul to locate his true self.

“However, in order for the mental defense wall to be 100% effective, we still need to have a perfect mind. There is not the slightest gap in our souls, and we cannot have any weaknesses.

“The brain virus works based on the weakness of human beings. Therefore, the mental defense wall must protect the weakness deep inside our soul, too. I know that everybody was occupied by the puppet king and did not know that they were in an illusion. Then, did the puppet king say anything to

disturb you in the illusion?”

Guan Qixing’s words raised a weird atmosphere in the meeting room.

Li Yao looked to his left and to his right. He found that both the brutal Yuan Kou and the mysterious Yun Haixin were in a trance, as if they were unwilling to expose their ‘weaknesses of human nature’.

Even if ‘everyone’ was their fellow sufferer and their closest comrade, it was still unacceptable.

After a long silence, Guan Qixing said, “Since it was me who raised the question, let me be the first to answer it. Although I was in the safe zone outside of the engine compartment at that time, the puppet king still found me and invaded me. The puppet king did not attack my soul. He simply asked me a

question. He asked me, since I am a new life made of seven remnant souls, which of the seven remnant souls is the master and which is the second? Which of the seven life segments do I prefer?”

The tricky question seemed to have drained all of Guan Qixing’s computational ability. The colorful brilliance on his face dimmed as soon as he finished his sentence.

“T fell into the illusion of the puppet king, too. After smashing thousands of virtual ghouls that he created, he said something to me, too.

“He asked me—What are you scared of exactly?”

Yuankou took a long breath after he finished his speech. His enormous body collapsed.

Yun Haixin continued. “Like you, the puppet king sent me a message through the illusions, too. He said that I knew why you stayed in the Sanctuary.

Emotionlessly, Chu Zhixiao listened and concluded, “I’m afraid you’ve all heard what the puppet king said to me. I asked the priest whether or not he knew that he was being controlled, and the puppet king asked me whether or not I knew that I was being controlled, nothing more.

The four members of the yaksha squad fell into silence.

Even in such a notorious ‘heretical squad’, some taboos had never been broken.

No one had ever asked who Guan Qixing was, whether he was the amalgamation of seven remnant souls, whether he was made up of seven different people, whether one of his personalities had swallowed the other six personalities, or whether he was a spiritual puppet that had only inherited the

memories of seven people.

No one had ever asked why a ferocious beast in the form of a human being such as ‘Titan’ Yuankou would often shiver and sob in his nightmares, as if he were terrified of something.

No one had ever asked why an Immortal Cultivator with a high Cultivation such as ‘Black Dream’ Yun Haixin, who had a deep understanding of the brain and a clear memory and self-awareness, would ‘degrade herself and stay in the Sanctuary Alliance to help the villains.

Of course, it also included the fact that no one had ever asked their captain, ‘Major’ Chu Zhixiao, whether or not he knew about their past, what was going on with their damn ‘Yaksha Squad’, and whether or not they were part of an enormous experiment.

At the very least, with the wisdom of ‘Black Dream’ Yun Haixin, he should have thought of it and indeed did. Now and then, he would mock himself.

But he never asked Chu Zhixiao, as if she had never asked him.

But right now, the puppet king had grasped alll their secrets and dissected their twisted humanity layer by layer with sharp scalpels, toying with their fatal weaknesses.

The meeting was temporarily suspended.

The four core members of the yaksha squad were all in a trance. They had to meditate and train to stabilize their belief.

“Thave a feeling.

At the end of the meeting, ‘Black Dream’ Yun Haixin said gloomily, “It won’t be long before the four of us ‘clean up’ each other. Maybe this is the fate of the cleaners.

Li Yao and Chu Zhixiao returned to her lounge again.

Chu Zhixiao was curled up in a corner again. He lit a cigarette and hid himself in the rising smoke. Confusion and vulnerability were beaming out of his frozen eyes.

She smoked one cigarette after another in silence.

But Li Yao wanted to break the silence—not by dancing, of course.

This might be a good opportunity for him to get closer to Chu Zhixiao’s heart and let him know what was on Chu Zhixiao’s mind. The captain of the yaksha squad, the woman who carried the destiny of slaughtering fairies, did not know her past or her destiny at all.

Of course, it was not as simple as that.

There were no detectaphones or monitoring crystal cameras in the room, nor was there any need for them.

It was because a lot of data-collecting magical equipment was stored inside Li Yao’s Spider Tank, which could transmit endless sounds and pictures to the mainframe crystal processor of the Heresy Interrogation Bureau. It was even possible that it could be transmitted to a higher level and reach the ears

of Master Zhi Shan.

Therefore, Li Yao had to slightly interfere with the data collection mode of the spider tank and send out fake sounds and pictures to cover up the real conversation between him and Chu Zhixiao.

The work took the mental devil ten minutes.

Then, he would finally be able to have a mental clash with Chu Zhixiao without anybody knowing.

“Major…”

Li Yao stuck to her..
