Chapter 2109 - Shocking the Universe!
The Land of Sins, or the Martial Meritocrats Sector, was the first world to have received the astonishing pictures and roars from “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”.
Almost at the same time, the data transmission bases that had been hacked, corrupted, and hijacked by the mental devil sent out countless data packages along the high-speed information transmission routes that had been long planned to the hundreds of Sectors and thousands of planets of the entire Imperium of True Human Beings, including the groundbreaking pictures and the roars from the Cultivators.
In the Unsettled Space Zone, on the mining starship of the model mining base of the Imperium, Gao Xiaojian, as a representative of the distinguished miners who had received mechanical modifications all over the body, was appreciating the special show with his workmates in the “Loyalty Room” together.
The Cultivators’ hilariousness made them burst into laughter. The explosions of the starships made their blood boil too. When the lightning trident, the national flag of the Imperium of True Human Beings, was flapping on the light beam, every miner was cheering for it from the bottom of their heart, feeling proud for the Immortal Cultivators and the Imperium.
Suddenly, the picture changed!
The dominating fleet of the Imperium, the invincible Immortal Cultivators, and the Cultivators who were fighting like caged beasts were all gone, replaced by the picture where Li Yao was running amok on a killing spree inside “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”.
The dark and mysterious crystal suit, the blood wings that were spluttering like flags, and the light cannons that were bursting consecutively made him look like a reincarnation of the God of Death, leaving an ineffaceable mark on the heart of Gao Xiaojian and his workmates!
It was impossible even for them to imagine the picture to be one where the Immortal Cultivators were massacring the Cultivators because Li Yao was reciting “Cultivator” after every blow, every kick, and every slash.
“This is what Cultivators do!”
“This is what Cultivators f*cking do!”
“After a thousand years, the Cultivators are back again!”
Li Yao was almost painting a caption of “Cultivator” right on his forehead.
Of the guys who were crying and escaping in panic, with their broken limbs flying everywhere, some were obviously wearing the military uniforms and the standard crystal suits of the Imperium of True Human Beings. There was the lighting trident emblem, the symbol of the Imperium, on the chest and the arms of the armor. It was impossible to erase them at all!
Bam!
On the picture, one of the Immortal Cultivators was tossed to the ground heavily. While struggling to crawl, he shrieked in the most earsplitting way.
He happened to reveal the emblem of the trident lightning and the logo of the Heavenly Eye Group on one side of his helmet to the camera. His shrieks that were filled with fear and desperation were blood-freezing enough for Gao Xiaojian and his workmates despite the long distance they had traveled in space.
BOOM!
Gao Xiaojian and his workmates were completely shocked into bewilderment, as if ten thousand crystal bombs had exploded in their heads at the same time.
They found it impossible to accept such an appalling picture, nor could they change their mindset so drastically in a hurry. Why on earth were the Immortal Cultivators butchering the Cultivators as if they were chicken, easily and confident of the victory, a few seconds ago, only to be butchered by the Cultivators as pitiful prey only a few seconds later?
It was too bloodthirsty, too violent, and too thrilling!
The Loyalty Room was caught in the chaos.
On the entire mining starship, all the cabins that were watching the special show of the slaughter stream were in chaos.
Gao Xiaojian felt that all the lubricants over his body were boiling. His head was bombarded by crystal bombs first, and a volcano was erupting fiercely at this moment.
He stood to his feet, lightheaded, waving his mechanical arms, but not knowing what to do exactly, he could only continue watching the 3D light beam in trauma.
On the 3D light beam, Li Yao’s slaughter and sabotage were still going on. After emptying all the ammunition of the storm bolters and the crystal cannons, he began to sweep across the place with the “Cell Obliteration Cannon” blatantly.
Most of the Immortal Cultivators in the control center were admin-type or research-type. None of them could sustain for a few seconds in front of the battle-type Cultivator in the Divinity Transformation Stage. They all turned into smoke and broken, burnt bodies in screams and moans.
The Immortal Cultivators who were lucky to survive to this moment were almost shitting their pants in fear.
Gao Xiaojian had never seen the Immortal Cultivators as devastated before.
In his impression, the Immortal Cultivators were always high and mighty, taciturn, fearless, and full of righteousness.
Wasn’t—Wasn’t such a devastated and hilarious demeanor more fit to be a standard pose for the Cultivators?
Or rather, even the desperate Cultivators just now did not look as panicked as them!
Deep down in Gao Xiaojian’s heart, something very feeble collapsed. The world before his eyes became fuzzy and unreal.
Earsplitting buzzes echoed inside the Loyalty Room.
Countless Immortal Cultivators charged into the room with their electromagnetic whips.
Before, Gao Xiaojian had the deepest fear for the electromagnetic whips of the Immortal Cultivators, which could cause the most excruciating pain to both a body of flesh and blood and a body of metals and gears.
However, the Immortal Cultivators were in obvious confusion too. They waved their electromagnetic whips for a long time, but they failed to find a target to land them on.
The massacre on the light beam was still going on, unstoppable and full of the gratification of resistance and revenge.
After a long daze, a few Immortal Cultivators jumped to the crystal processors, ripping apart the crystal processors as well as the light beams.
The Loyalty Room was immediately caught in darkness, with nothing but the heavy and disordered panting of the Immortal Cultivators left.
“Some-some sordid and cunning enemy disrupted our signals and displayed tremendous false videos that were made up!”
The Immortal Cultivators shouted drily, “The loyalty education is now suspended. Everyone… Everyone shall return to your respective chamber immediately. No talking, no moving!”
Gao Xiaojian and his workmates were silent under the waving, spluttering electromagnetic whips, as if they had become the most docile machines as they had always been. They lined up orderly.
However, when Gao Xiaojian peeped at his workmates next to him, he discovered that his workmates were also looking at him with weird faces.
Their man-made eyes were flashing nonstop, and they could both tell each other’s astonishment and confusion.
Are the Lord Immortal Cultivators… scared?
They were eager to ask each other the question, but eventually, they simply swallowed their confusion deeply and buried it together with other questions.
However many of their organs had been replaced by the crystals and cold machines, the numb miners had their own brains and their souls.
Deep inside their brains, countless questions were bubbling up like the leakage of the high-pressure gas deep inside the mines beyond their control.
Were the pictures real?
Was… Was the expert who looked like a God of War really a Cultivator?
Who is he exactly? What is this all about?
The thousands of questions congregated into Li Yao’s roar again—
“THIS IS WHAT CULTIVATORS DO!”
The same picture was displayed in the many planets in the many worlds of the many space zones in the entire Imperium at the same time.
Wuying Lan and Li Lingfeng went through all the trouble to establish the slaughter stream platform and to build up the information channels leading to the billions of terminals in different worlds for the purpose of etching their image deeply into the eyes, the brains, and the hearts of the billions of people of the Imperium.
However, it was now the shiniest state for Cultivators and for Li Yao.
While the Immortal Cultivators were in a flurry to cut off the Spiritual Nexus, to block the picture, to disrupt the signals, to smash the crystal processors, and to let out the roars of embarrassment and fury, hundreds of thousands of workers, farmers, and even bottom-level Immortal Cultivators had already seen the picture of Li Yao’s invincibility. They saw how “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky” was riddled with holes under his attack, and how countless Immortal Cultivators were shuddering in fear under his feet, only to be blown into nothingness in screams!
“What… What is this about?”
Countless people took off their virtualization helmet and screamed desperately.
“What… What kind of monster is this? Such a tough Cultivator!”
Buildings that were similar to the “Loyalty Room” were mired in chaos, with exclamations of disbelief echoing nonstop.
“False! False! Everything is false!”
Some of the Immortal Cultivators were so shocked that their hearts were almost exploding. They kicked their crystal processors to the ground and blew it apart brutally. But a moment later, they immediately regretted their action and searched everywhere for new terminals that had access to the “slaughter stream”.
“Accident! A super stream accident!”
The governors of countless planets gnashed their teeth in utmost fury.
Wuying Lan and Li Lingfeng had always wanted to impress them with the power of the Spiritual Nexus and the media. Now, they couldn’t have learned it better, in such a ridiculous, weird, and unimaginable way!
In about ten seconds to half a minute, all the information transmission channels of the slaughter stream platform were shut down.
Some resource planets even resorted to extreme measures including “global blackout” to completely eliminate the import of the “poisonous information”.
But it was too late.
The shocking performance no longer than half a minute was enough to implant something into the hearts of countless people of the Imperium and to awaken something else, making them realize that the Immortal Cultivators were not invincible and that they totally had a different choice other than doing obediently what they were asked to do!
The power of the Spiritual Nexus couldn’t have been better shown at such a moment.
The pictures of a few seconds long disseminated quickly among the various nodes of the Spiritual Nexus of the Imperium virally.
The nobles, the Sectors Masters, and the sect leaders could stop slaves and part of the hominoids from bulls*iting in cyberspace.
However, a lot of middle-level and low-level Immortal Cultivators also saw the pictures and were deeply interested in the mysterious Cultivator.
A mysterious and formidable enemy was always particularly eye-catching. It was impossible for the Imperium to deprive all the Immortal Cultivators of their right to surf on the Spiritual Nexus, right?
In less than five minutes, Li Yao had become the star on the Spiritual Nexus that had the highest attention and became the topic of discussion for everyone. Nobody could’ve been more popular than him.
His declaration had shocked the entire universe!
