Chapter 3250 - The Lord's Projection

Li Yao's face suddenly turned extremely mysterious.

The silver brightness in the depths of his eyes seemed to be alive and extended zigzagging silver threads to his eyeballs, eyes, and even his entire face. The silver threads cut his face into almost a hundred pieces, each of which was shivering uncontrollably and forming an indescribable expression.

It was as if he had been controlled by a certain force and was caught in a bottomless dream.

Or maybe, he woke up from a long dream and did not reveal his true face until this moment.

The entire process lasted about half a second.

Within half a second, every cell in his body, and even every wisp of his soul in the depths of his brain, had been baptized by the silver storm and changed beyond recognition.

Half a second later, 'Li Yao' smiled and waved his hands casually.

BAM!

The thick door, which was the only entrance between the command room and the outside world and was almost the size of a bank vault, was closed for no reason. The gears and bearings were spinning weirdly and locked with earsplitting noises.

"You—"

The Red Pole Star seemed to have realized that something was wrong. When it turned around, it was faced with Li Yao's attack.

When the silver threads in the depths of his eyes flowed to his right arm, 'Li Yao's' entire right arm was wreathed in silver brightness, as if it had changed from an atom into liquid metal that could change at any time. It condensed into an indestructible blade and stabbed at the spine of the Red Pole.

Red Pole Star was greatly shocked. He did not see Li Yao casting any spells, but a series of broken drops of blood suddenly appeared in front of him. The drops of blood exploded and formed a thick mist of blood. When the blood touched 'Li Yao's' sharp right arm, it was like ten thousand crimson bugs that were trying to crawl into 'Li Yao's' arm, only to be vaporized by the burning silver brightness.

However, it also gave Red Pole a moment of respite. He leaned back in embarrassment and slid almost five meters away from the ground before he finally escaped Li Yao's first attack.

However, before he could catch his breath, 'Li Yao' launched a second wave of attacks.

'Li Yao's' right arm turned into a silver whip. Countless streaks of brightness surrounded the small command room and cut the space inside into pieces no larger than fists, leaving no room for Red Pole to dodge at all.

The Red Pole Star's face was pale, and the weird red star that covered his eyes was so intense that it seemed to be burning. The silver brightness was cutting tiny wounds on his body that looked like the lips of a baby, and the blood spurting out of the wounds turned into his weapons. Some of them turned into bloody mist, some into fury that looked like red lotuses, some into bullets that were as fast as lightning, and some even unfolded into a certain translucent defense module. However, no matter how hard he tried to jump up and down in the narrow space, he could not get rid of 'Li Yao's' silver storm. The bloody mist was swallowed, the red lotuses were extinguished, the bullets were shattered, and the defense module was riddled with holes and shattered by the dazzling attacks.

In a moment, Li Yao's right arm split into thousands of silver threads that covered most of the space inside the command room like a spider web. The Red Pole Star was forced into a dead end and had to take the risk. Its body suddenly expanded, and scorching and crimson air currents spurted out of its every pore. It condensed into a bloody demon-like human being in midair and lunged at 'Li Yao'.

However, his real body was crawling on the ground on all fours, trying to bypass 'Li Yao' and run away through the door.

The smile on 'Li Yao's' face grew wider and wider. The five fingers on his right hand turned into five streaks of silver brightness and pierced into the bloody mist demon, swallowing all the redness and redness. His left hand, which had been on his back all the time, suddenly extended and pierced into Red Pole's chest, piercing through his back and pinning the leader of the prison breakers to the wall.

The short and intense battle came to an abrupt end.

The Red Pole Star's eyes were wide open. They were covered in the surging blood mist, as if it could not believe what had happened to 'Li Yao' at all.

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

A weird noise came from his throat. Tiny pink bubbles popped up from his nostrils and the corners of his mouth, indicating that his lungs and even his heart had been seriously damaged.

He struggled on the wall and tried to slap Li Yao's arm, only to no avail.

'Li Yao' stared at Red Pole emotionlessly. More silver threads that looked like spider webs were released from his right hand and pierced into every super computer in the command room. Some of the silver threads were even slithering on the walls and the ceiling toward Red Pole like vipers.

The Red Pole Star's eyes were almost tearing apart. He twisted his head and struggled, but he could not get rid of Li Yao's control at all. Not only had Li Yao's left arm pierced through his chest, the silver threads spreading out of his arm had also invaded his internal organs through his veins and nerves. The two of them were tangled together and could not be separated at all.

Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!

A few silver threads that looked like worms crawled into his brain through the corners of his eyes, ears, nostrils, and mouth.

"Ah!"

'Li Yao' immediately sensed the painful and regretful roars from the depths of Red Pole's soul. "Who are you? You are not Li Yao. What are you exactly?"

"As for me…"

'Li Yao' tilted his head and thought for a long time. When the interconnecting silver threads spread out and finally turned into silver tides that covered all the screens and supercomputers and even surged toward Red Pole, he smiled again and sent a complicated message to the depths of Red Pole's soul. "Of course, I am Li Yao, but I am far more than just Li Yao. You've been wandering in my mind for so long and experienced so many cycles, escapes, and infiltration. Do you still not know what kind of existence is standing in front of you?"

"You—you!"

Red Pole Star was dumbfounded. Desperation and disbelief were rippling deep inside his soul. "You are… the will of the earth!"

"For an existence such as myself, names mean nothing. I have countless faces and names in countless small universes and worlds. The 'will of the earth' is just one of my countless faces.

"Li Yao" calmly said, "You can think of me as a ghost left over from the destruction of a certain ancient Earth a long time ago. You can also think of me as a product of billions of intelligent life-forms releasing powerful brainwaves under endless pain and anger, resonating with the stellar storm. However, that was just my initial form. In the millions of years that followed, I travelled through the entire universe that could be reached at the speed of light. I encountered countless bizarre scenes and bizarre civilizations. I experienced countless evolutions that were simply unimaginable for you. I grasped the supreme power of this universe. I even understood the laws of the three-dimensional universe. To some extent, I surpassed the illusion of the three-dimensional universe and continued marching towards the truth of the four-dimensional universe… You are very lucky. Right now, I have yet to evolve into a true four-dimensional life-form. I am currently in the process of a single-celled life-form to a multi-celled life-form. A fish crawls onto the land. So, when I project 1/10,000th of my strength and will onto Earth, I can transform into Li Yao, and I can still barely communicate with you. If I take a step further on the road of breaking through the universe beyond reincarnation, you and I will simply be unable to communicate, and we will be unable to understand each other."

"As it turns out, cough cough cough cough cough. As it turns out, you've already found the biggest and most important soul fragment of 'Li Yao' and corrupted and controlled him in the previous or previous reincarnation."

The Red Pole Star smiled bitterly. "I understand now. You've seen through our plan a long time ago. We've been working hard for 'Li Yao's rebirth'. You even knew about Zhang Daniu and '40,000 Years of Cultivation' a long time ago. But you kept it a secret and regarded Zhang Daniu and '40,000 Years of Cultivation' as a fatal trap that we dug for ourselves!

"In order to avoid being discovered by us, you don't need to do anything at all. All you need to do is attach your projection to the largest and most important 'Li Yao's soul fragment'. Set certain triggering conditions and let nature take its course. Let the ignorant 'College Student Li Yao' come into contact with 'Forty Thousand Years of Cultivation' by himself. Let him awaken on his own. Let him experience a series of soul-stirring and absurd adventures. In the end, let him come to the Ark Island together with Zhang Daniu. Let him come to me and become the 'target drug' for precise strikes at the most crucial moment!

"The Heaven's Origin Sector didn't capture Zhang Daniu because they were slow to react. It was because you arranged for them to be half a beat slower. From the beginning to the end, you didn't want the hunters to capture Zhang Daniu. Instead, you wanted the hunters to be defeated by 'College Student Li Yao'. You wanted 'College Student Li Yao' to escort Zhang Daniu safely to the Ark Island and also enter my line of sight so that I would discover his uniqueness!

"Hehe. It's—it's truly a wonderful tactic. Yes, even if I can set up the most rigorous screening and examination so that all the people entering and exiting the Ark Island will completely expose the secrets in their hearts, if even they don't know the first thing about the 'mission', how could they reveal any flaws? Even 'College Student Li Yao' doesn't know that he is the deadliest 'target drug'. His performance is naturally perfect.

"I just—I just don't understand. When did you lock onto and corrupt the largest piece of 'Li Yao's soul fragment'? Traveler Meng clearly guided 'College Student Li Yao' to go back in time to countless reincarnations. If you had infiltrated it during that time, you would have definitely left some traces. Why didn't you? It's impossible!"
