"Colossus!"
Li Yao repeated in a low voice. These three words were like an electric current flowing through his body, causing his blood to boil involuntarily.
Even Little Black, which was hanging in front of his chest and in the Cosmos Ring, was eager to do something. It sent an idea to the depths of his brain.
"The Colossi were the marvelous weapons that human beings dominated the universe in the primeval era. They could trigger the potential of human beings to the maximum! It was with the unparalleled power of the Colossi that we were able to compete with the legendary deities and devils and dominate the entire universe! "
Kou Ruhuo's voice was filled with infinite excitement and longing. "Such ultimate treasures of the primeval era were made with countless techniques that we are not familiar with yet. Many of the units can't even be replicated!
"In the sea of stars today, every Colossus is a unique, unparalleled existence. If they are damaged in a battle, it is barely possible to completely repair them. Some of the units on other Colossi will even have to be replaced by dismantling them!
"Therefore, even if we cannot excavate a complete Colossus in this place, as long as we can find the debris of a few Colossi that are relatively well-preserved and can dismantle some of the useful units and components, they will all be invaluable items that can be exchanged for a few powerful Cultivation arts or even a few heavy-firepower starships!"
Li Yao swallowed. His eyes that were hidden deep inside the Crystal Suit were glittering gloomily. "Are there still people who use Colossi in the sea of stars today?"
"Of course, but few of them," Kou Ruhuo said.
Kou Ruhuo said, "On one hand, the Colossi that have been perfectly preserved from the primeval era to this day are few and far between. Most of our Colossi are often jumbled by the remains of different Colossi and the modern technology of large-scale magical equipment.
"As long as there is the slightest possibility of repair, we will try to repair the debris no matter how ragged it is. In any case, it is much more powerful than the general Crystal Suit.
"On the other hand, it is extremely difficult to pilot a Colossus. It is a huge blow to the soul. Even Yuanying has only just stepped into the threshold of piloting a Colossus!
"In the sea of stars today, everybody who is qualified to pilot a Colossus is a famous big shot or even a history-making legend. They will be recorded in history together with their Colossus!"
"For example, the emperor of the Star Ocean Imperium and his Colossus Gold Sun, the Blood God and his Colossus Apocalypse, and Blackstar the Great and his Blackhole's Heart, the founding emperor of the Imperium of True Human Beings. They are all very famous Colossi!
"Golden Sun, Apocalypse, Blackhole Core."
Li Yao's lips kept trembling.
Just by hearing the names, and considering the debris of the Colossi that he saw on the ground, it was not hard for him to imagine how terrifying such a marvelous weapon would be when its strength was maximized!
"I must pilot the Colossus. I must!"
Li Yao swore in his heart.
Fearing that his overly excited behavior would be seen through, he deliberately asked, "That's right, what about the God-Sealing Heavenly Scripture? If one volume can be unearthed, it will be more valuable than a Colossus, won't it? "
His greed and childishness made the three Immortal Cultivators all laugh.
"How can the God-Sealing Heavenly Scripture be discovered so easily?"
Su Changfa smiled. "You must've seen the debris of hundreds of Colossi on the ground and on the primeval battlefield here, haven't you? Although most of the debris has been completely broken, it is not entirely impossible to excavate one or two usable units from them if you are lucky enough.
"In this primeval battlefield alone, there may be more than a thousand Colossi debris.
"But there are only eight volumes of the God-Sealing Heavenly Scripture. Right now, no more than three volumes are scattered outside. The universe is too vast a place for us to discover them so easily.
"Besides, the Colossi are too large to be seen easily. The God-Sealing Heavenly Scripture, on the other hand, is ever-changing. Nobody knows exactly what form it will be preserved in. I'm afraid that you won't be able to recognize it even if it is right in front of you!
"Therefore, you'd better forget about it. Our main targets for exploration are the Pangu dead bodies, the units of the Colossi, and the core facilities deep inside the planetary warship!"
Very soon, Kou Ruhuo finished scanning the details of the battlefield.
The Immortal Cultivators had a high understanding of the habits of the Blood Tides. They had long known that the debris on the ground had lost the value of exploration after hundreds of thousands of years of sucking and swallowing.
However, they still had to clear a large area of the Blood Tides for the purpose of observing the battle of the debris down below so that they could determine the direction of their attack and defense!
"It's here!"
After studying the detailed map of the battlefield for a long time, Kou Ruhuo pointed at a certain direction in the darkness and said, "Most of the troops of human beings are attacking this way, and the Pangu are defending against this place. Therefore, what they are going to attack and defend must be in this direction!"
Tang Qianhe launched a localization and scanning soundwave in the direction that Kou Ruhuo pointed at.
The feedback of the soundwave was that there was a giant hole that sloped downward thirty-four kilometers away from them.
The edges of the hole were highly irregular. There was a circle of metal residue rising high, which should've been the mark of an explosion or a drill.
"Where exactly are the troops of human beings in the primeval war going?"
The four of them carefully avoided the Blood Tides on the ground and the Hellish Light Butterflies below the dome. Very soon, they discovered the hole and the corpses that were piled up around the hole.
The place was obviously the focus of the two parties' competition. Although hundreds of thousands of years had passed, the brutality of the fierce battle on that day could still be sensed from the chaotic spiritual waves.
Following the hole, they continued moving downward for more than five kilometers before their eyes suddenly widened!
They seemed to have 'fallen' back to the ground again.
No. It was because the underground space was too vast. It was at least a thousand kilometers both in length and width. At first glance, it looked like a boundless continent!
On the 'continent', a splendid primitive forest was standing.
Li Yao and the three Immortal Cultivators all held their breath.
They had flown down from the dome through the channel that had been blown open by force. Therefore, they had reached the center of the primitive forest the moment they landed.
Activating the crystal cameras with a super high resolution, they captured and analyzed the scene from various angles. After inputting all the data into the crystal processors for careful calculation and reassembly, they finally realized that what they were seeing should've been a splendid city.
This was a city that the Pangu people had built deep inside Kunlun!
The average height of the Pangu people was almost seven times taller than that of human beings. Therefore, their buildings were as high and solemn as the temples of human beings.
Li Yao discovered that the Pangu civilization seemed to be a civilization that worshipped rules, if not monotonous.
All their buildings were the most standard geometrical objects. They preferred straight lines and did not even bother to use arcs or cones.
Basically, the entire city was a collection of geometrical objects large and small. Every corner was exactly ninety degrees, and the edges of the buildings were as sharp as razors.
Cubes, cubes, and prisms were duplicated ten thousand times before they were separated by interconnecting, straight roads, which constituted the general picture of the city.
It was indeed a great city that would've shocked anyone who saw it the first time.
But it was also a city that no one would be interested in living in at all.
Li Yao felt that it was more like a factory, a barracks, and a prison than a city.
However, that was a long, long time ago.
After the Pangu people completely abandoned the city, the low-level lives that they left behind gradually took over the place. The vines spread upward along the monotonous buildings and entangled with each other. Nurtured by the abundant spiritual energy, they gradually developed into a messy primitive forest that was disordered yet thriving without any pattern, completely covering the traces of the past.
"Look. There."
Tang Qianhe pointed at an enormous building at the center of the city and shouted softly.
Rather than calling it a building, it would be more accurate to call it a black cube that supported the heavens and the earth.
Judging from the ratio of the cube to the buildings next to it, it was at least ten kilometers in length, width, and height. The surface of the cube was pure black and natural. There was not a single window or gap!
The black cube gave a feeling of solemnity and magnificence, reminding Li Yao of the altars and temples for rituals.
When they scanned the cube with mystic rays and inputted the length, width, and height of the black cube into their crystal processors for calculation, they discovered that all the values were the same.
Ten kilometers.
Or rather, ten thousand meters with the highest precision!
It was in line with the customs and customs of the Pangu civilization.
They also discovered that the location of the black cube was precisely in the center of the entire city, the intersection of all the roads.
It was almost as if the entire city had been born for the enormous black cube.
Even the primitive plants that wrapped around all the buildings did not dare to encroach on the area where the black cube was located. They made it stand very abruptly, using this method to quietly show off their power.
"It appears that this is the most important facility in the city of the Pangu people," Kou Ruhuo said solemnly. "It is also the place that the human army is trying to occupy at any cost.
Kou Ruhuo said solemnly, "Assume battle formation and advance!"
The roars of hundreds of power rune arrays at the same time tore apart the silence of the forest. Countless shadows were craning their heads from the vines and the branches.
Li Yao scanned them with his mystic rays and discovered that they were all bizarre-looking animals. Many of them looked similar to the primeval beasts described in the ancient biology textbooks. They seemed to be 'living fossils' that had survived the primeval era to this day.
