Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

BOOM!

When Lu Qingchen declared that he was a ‘god’ in the highest and most twisted tone, Li Yao manipulated the ‘Arsonist’ to pull the giant iron foot out of the ‘savior’s’ chest. Then he aimed his right arm, which had been disassembled and unfolded into the ‘Obliteration’ state, at the broken hole inside and blew the ‘savior’s’ chest into pieces without any hesitation.

Naturally, Lu Qingchen’s enchantment was blown away, too. “What are you doing?” Lu Qingchen’s weird laughter finally turned into an earsplitting shriek. “You need me! Nobody can run away without my cooperation, much less discover the mysteries behind the primeval relics! “Is that so?”

Li Yao smiled. Earsplitting explosions burst out from the waist of the ‘Arsonist’. The forty or so auxiliary power units on his back spurted out the most intimidating flames at the same time, helping the ‘Arsonist’ turn around at a lightning-like speed and turn the aura of the saber into a perfect arc.

Shua!

Hardly had the lightning boa lunged at them from above when it was hit seven inches away by the earthshaking aura of the saber. After a delay of 0.01 seconds, it went deeper, destroyed everything in its way, and destroyed everything in its way. The head of the ferocious beast more than fifty meters in diameter was chopped off by Li Yao. It rolled among the broken walls like a round stone. Corrosive blood spurted out and blackened the silver streets and buildings.

Li Yao’s attack was not over yet.

After cutting off the head of the lightning boa, the aura of the saber suddenly accelerated and slashed into the right leg of the ‘rescuer’.

Crack! Crack!

Manipulating the ‘Arsonist’, Li Yao stomped on the right knee of the ‘Rescuer’. Then he twisted the saber and cut off the entire right leg of the ‘Rescuer’.

“AHHHHHHHHH!”

Lu Qingchen cried in pain, “Are you crazy? What are you doing exactly? There are endless ferocious beasts, extremely dangerous traps, and incredible ancient existences here! We should cooperate. We can rescue,”

Li Yao heard none of it. He drove the ‘Arsonist’ to drag the twitching body of the lightning boa over and aimed the bleeding wound at the shocking hole on the abdomen of the ‘rescuer’. A lot of corrosive blood immediately filled the ‘rescuer’s’ chest and soaked all the precise units.

The glittering, yellow units immediately turned black and ugly like the buildings on the two sides of the street, emitting a pungent, corrosive smell.

The information stream that Lu Qingchen released was immediately disordered and twisted, as if his body was soaked in a rain of acid.

“Weren’t you the one who said that we are both out-and-out lunatics and that we don’t need to talk about rules and reason at all? And now you are blaming me for my madness?”

While he was talking, Li Yao waved his saber again and took off the left arm of the ‘rescuer’ along with his right leg into his Cosmos Ring. “Also, you said that the first thing to do in the exploration of such ancient relics was to eliminate all the uncontrollable factors in the team. I agree with you. Isn’t that what you are doing right now?”

Despite his craziness and cunningness, Lu Qingchen was rendered speechless for a long time. His soul shrank into a cluster. “It’s all your own fault. You’ve lied to everybody too many times. In my estimation, you are an even more formidable enemy than all the other ferocious beasts combined.

Li Yao took off the left leg of the ‘rescuer’ unhurriedly and tossed it into his Cosmos Ring, too. He said casually, “I believe that you know a lot of secrets, and I also believe that the secrets will be of great help to me when I finish the mission, rescue all the members of the exploration team, and escape with my life. But no amount of secrets can offset your danger and unpredictability. Therefore, after thorough consideration, I don’t mind executing you on the spot at all.

“Right now, you are only left with one arm, and the jet power unit of the Giant God Soldier is still intact. It still boasts the most basic mobility and combat ability. There is still a gap between it and a piece of scrap metal, but the distance is not very far. “If you don’t want to be torn apart by me and thrown to the ferocious beasts, then hurry up and tell me everything. How can I rescue Ding Lingdang and the rest?” “… I don’t know.”

Lu Qingchen was silent for a moment. Then he said honestly, “The entire ‘Ancient Tomb of the Supreme Emperor-Divine Tomb-Black Tomb’ is built in an extremely unstable zone. Maybe it is controlled by traps, or maybe the space has completely collapsed. In short, we are now in a different space from Ding Lingdang and the rest of them.

“It seems that we are all in the same city, but the scale and complexity of the city are far beyond our imagination. Not only are there six directions, including north, south, east, and west, there are also countless hidden spaces as complicated as ant nests and honeycombs. It is an out-and-out maze. The people you think are so close to you might have been brought hundreds of lightyears away by the broken space, and the super ferocious beasts on another planet might have been attracted by the space ripples and appeared above our heads.

“I-I’m not lying to you. If you don’t believe me, you can search the communication network. There’s no response, is there? Ding Lingdang, Long Yangjun, Li Linghai, and everyone else you brought with you can’t be reached, can they? Logically speaking, it’s impossible. In the range of the same city, with the information transmission ability of the Giant God Soldier, it should have been possible to find traces of the enemy. But the weird thing happened. Just like I said, space was twisted, torn apart, and scattered. We were all trapped.

“Oh, if you know Ding Lingdang’s precise coordinates and have the ability to jump through the sea of stars, you might be able to jump to Ding Lingdang’s side. However, don’t say that I didn’t warn you. The space here is so twisted and chaotic. Be careful not to get stuck in the middle of the jump. What if half of you jumps over and the other half is frozen in the ‘space wall’? That would be very awkward, right?” “Hehe!”

Li Yao sniffed and picked up the broken ‘savior’. “Why?”

“How would I know?”

Lu Qingchen said innocently, “Alright. It was wrong of me to slander your wife just now. It’s true that the beasts were not released by her, but the chaos was indeed caused by her and me. If she hadn’t shot me at the most crucial moment, I would’ve controlled the place and stabilized the chaotic space!” “Of course!”

Li Yao said, “Tell me everything you know from the beginning to the end. Why did you go through so much trouble to come to this place? Just to swallow the other half of the Fuxi? How much do you know about this place? What is the Pangu civilization doing here with the other half of the Fuxi? What forces are attacking them?”

“Don’t be smart and make things worse. I know that, in the battle of ‘Ultimate Rescue’, you swallowed a lot of data pieces of the Fuxis at first, and when you couldn’t bear it any longer, you threw some of them away. But the information that you threw out was screened by you, and the most critical information is all in your stomach. “Tell me what you know!”

“I’ll talk. I’ll talk. Cough cough cough cough. Don’t be so fierce. It’s really not appropriate for you to put on such a serious look. I prefer to see your mischievous face.”

Lu Qingchen smiled miserably. “I was speaking the truth from the beginning to the end. If you are willing to believe me, of course, I’m willing to tell you the truth. There are many purposes for the Pangu Civilization to build the laboratory. For example, the exploration of the ‘black wall’ or the research on the captives of the Flood Tide Legion. But the most important purpose is to create a ‘god’.

“What?!

Li Yao’s heart skipped a beat. “God Creation?”

“More precisely speaking, it is to replicate and revive a god.

Lu Qingchen’s laughter turned weird and eccentric again. “The ‘Black Wall Makers’, the first generation of carbon-based intelligent creatures in the Pangu Universe, the oldest ancestors of all civilizations in the Pangu Universe, are naturally the ancestors of the Pangu Civilization itself. “Well—”

Li Yao mumbled, “What is it exactly? What is the ‘black wall maker’? What is the ‘god’?”

“The so-called ‘god’…”

Lu Qingchen paused for a moment and decided to keep Li Yao in suspense. Soon, he burst into laughter. “That’s us. We are gods. I’m not lying to you. This is true. We are gods. We are the makers of the black wall. We are the first generation of carbon-based intelligent life in the Pangu Universe. We are also the strongest carbon-based intelligent life in the Pangu Universe and even the multiverse!”

“Enough.” Li Yao said coldly, “Are you done being crazy?”

“It’s true. I don’t believe that you didn’t notice it. The deeper we go into the primeval relics, the more likely it is that this place is prepared for us. The gravity, temperature, humidity, and crops of the clusters of countless planets outside, the weird black stele, and the black gaps that are bursting out. Everything is perfect for the middle-sized, carbon-based intelligent creatures such as us. We are not the giant creatures such as the Pangu Clan or the Nuwa Clan, nor are we intelligent, plant-like creatures such as the Houyi Clan or the Kuafu Clan. The answer is obvious. We are the real masters of the Pangu Universe. We are the true masters of the world. We are the gods who created everything!

Lu Qingchen continued shouting, “I appreciate your ‘father-son civilization’ theory very much, but you’ve got the father-son relationship completely wrong. From the very beginning, the Pangu civilization was never the ‘father civilization’ of the civilization of mankind. On the contrary, we are the fathers who have long perished and fallen into hibernation. The Pangu civilization, on the other hand, is trying its best to wake us up and seek wisdom and protection from us, but they are also the children who harbor fear and the urge to kill their fathers!
