What kind of speed was that? What kind of leg strength was that?
There was nothing but silence in the highest command center of the Defense Counsel of the Federation.
All the Cultivators, especially the new representatives who had just emerged in the past hundred years and hadn't experienced the integration of the three Sectors that Li Yao had facilitated a hundred years ago, were mired in a black hole of shock.
Was this really the guy with messy hair who looked like he hadn't woken up at all? Sometimes, he would wear slippers on the streets and wear sunglasses and a mask to buy stinky tofu?
Was it the man who visited the kindergarten and was pissed on by the kids, but he was still smiling as if it was not a big deal and did not have the self-awareness of Yuanying at all?
He was — he was — he was so brutal!
Many new representatives did not understand the meaning of 'Vulture Li Yao, dominator of three Sectors' in the beginning. They thought that Li Yao was just lucky enough to be in the middle of the integration of the three Sectors, and that he was Ding Ling Dong's husband and Jin Xinyue's master. Therefore, he had been elevated to the altar by all kinds of exaggerations.
Even though he had returned glamorously in the space battle, many people had secretly thought that it was thanks to the 'Tartarean Skeleton'. Any Yuanying Cultivator would be able to wield almost the same strength as the Tartarean Skeleton as long as they were equipped with it.
But at this moment, Li Yao's astonishing kick, when he was wearing two plain Mystic Skeleton Battlesuits and not wearing the Crystal Suit, shattered everyone's doubts and illusions!
BAM …
The kick in the picture seemed to have hit the defense shield and the super alloy gate at the periphery of the highest command center directly. The air in the entire command center was shaking violently, with ripples that seemed to be real. Every representative's eardrums were humming.
After a long time, someone finally managed to catch his breath and said with a bitter smile, "Thankfully, he is on our side. Otherwise …"
This was probably what all the members of the Federation were thinking.
Even the federal councilors, who were allies, were shocked to this extent. The bridge of Black Ray was deathly silent, like a grave. After a long time, the sound of teeth clattering could be heard.
Faced with Vulture Li Yao, the ultimate expert of the barbarians at the edge of the cosmos, the Immortal Cultivators had long been mentally prepared for failure.
However, no one had expected that Fiery Eye Wan Xiu, Heavy Cannon Lei Long, and Death Shadow Murong Wei would actually be defeated so miserably, without the slightest ability to fight back.
"Twenty-two seconds! Wan Xiu, Lei Long, and Murong Wei together only lasted for twenty-two seconds!"
"That's excluding the six seconds he took to slowly walk toward Murong Wei. In fact, it only took him fifteen seconds to finish off three powerful enemies who were at the peak of the Yuanying Stage!"
"Who, who is this person? What kind of magic treasure is he using?"
"Vulture Li Yao? Vulture Li Yao! "
All the Immortal Cultivators were shocked and bewildered. Their facial organs all collapsed, as if Li Yao's kick had just hit the tip of their nose. Even the calmest and most dominating experts in the past were now like roosters whose feathers had been plucked. There was panic and confusion on their faces.
Di Feiwen, the No. 2 person of the Black Wind Fleet and the Black Wind Cultivator, was still in the mood to laugh, as if he had foreseen that Li Yao would bring such a shocking performance.
"How about it, captains, chiefs, leaders," he said slowly. "You should completely believe me now, shouldn't you? I said a long time ago that we are absolutely no match for Vulture Li Yao, just like we were absolutely no match for Heiye Ming a hundred years ago."
He climbed down from the commander's chair unhurriedly and warmed up his wrists and ankles softly. Without looking at the experts around him, he stared at Li Yao on the picture and said, "Now, it's time to fulfill our bet. Bring out all your stuff. It's my turn now."
In the picture, Li Yao did not show any excitement or delight after taking down three Immortal Cultivators in a row, as if he had just done something insignificant like stomping on three cockroaches.
His eyebrows were furrowed, and his face was indifferent. His eyes were hollow, as if he were considering the most mysterious truth of the universe, making it impossible for anyone to pry into what was going on inside his head at all.
In a negotiation, such an opponent was the most troublesome one.
"The best dominator at the edge of the cosmos is indeed not easy to deal with!"
Before the negotiation officially began, Di Feiwen, who was also an expert in negotiation, already sighed when he saw Li Yao's unpredictable face.
He was very suspicious that he would be crushed and shattered by Li Yao after the first encounter, just like the three Immortal Cultivators.
After all, in the past, he had been able to figure out what was on Heiye Ming's mind after a quick glance.
But he couldn't figure out what was on Li Yao's mind at all. He couldn't figure it out at all.
Such cunningness, such shrewdness, and such calmness. Dreadful. Truly dreadful!
Shaking his head and sighing, Di Feiwen put on the Crystal Suit and flew to the space station.
Inside the broken space station …
Chi! Chi! Chi!
All kinds of automatic maintenance magical equipment spurted out foam that was solidifying at a high speed crazily. The holes and cracks were finally blocked for now, allowing the air pressure and the temperature to return to normal.
Li Yao was still expressionless. He lowered his head and pondered carefully.
Neltharion entered the stealth state again and returned to his Dry Kun Ring. As for the mental devil, it dashed back to his brain.
The two parties were the two sides of the same soul after all. They could not be completely separated. After staying outside for a while, they had to return to the brain for nurturing and training.
"More haste, less speed," Li Yao said. "We were too hasty after all. We were too hasty to absorb the enormous energy, and we failed to control it perfectly. Look. I failed to control my strength at the last moment, and tremendous flames of spiritual energy leaked out of my pores. Also, my pants were torn apart because of the high-speed collision with the enemy's Crystal Suit."
"It's inevitable in a fierce battle," the mental devil said. "What's the problem?"
"It's not a big deal if the pants were torn apart," Li Yao said. "But look. My thighs are clean. Even the hair on my legs has been burnt away. Don't you feel that it's unsightly? It's as if I'm a pervert who shaved my legs on purpose. "
The mental devil: "Well …"
"Speaking of which," Li Yao said, "I'm suddenly very curious. How do other Cultivators deal with such problems? After all, it is impossible for them to control their spiritual energy to the most delicate level in a fierce battle all the time. A lot of flames of spiritual energy will leak out sooner or later, and they will be bombarded by the enemy's magical equipment that can cut iron like mud due to high-speed friction. Wouldn't their clothes be torn apart and their hair be burnt away all the time?
"Originally, they were two sage-like and domineering experts. But now, they're completely naked. Wouldn't it be very awkward if they're entangled with each other?
"It's already so awkward when two male experts are fighting. What if it's a group of men, women, and dozens of experts fighting together, and one of them suddenly unleashes a big move that can destroy the heavens and earth, blowing up the other's clothes in an instant? What should we do next? Should we continue fighting?"
"Hey, hey, hey. This is not the time to consider such questions, is it?"
"Perhaps," Li Yao said, "the armor was invented at the beginning to avoid the awkward situation when one's clothes are torn apart and one's body is naked?"
"It's true, brother. You've absorbed too many distracting thoughts in the past half year. Why don't we take a break before we proceed to the next phase of training?"
"… Let's talk about it later," Li Yao said. "Somebody's coming!"
Shua!
A brand-new Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit flowed around his body like black mercury and enshrouded him immediately. Li Yao stared at the No. 9 airtight gate. Other than a large team of medics, it was Di Feiwen, the de facto commander of the remaining soldiers of the Black Wind Fleet, who had the emblem of a general of the Imperium of True Human Beings carved on the breastplate of the Crystal Suit.
Unlike Li Yao, who was fully-armed and on high alert, Di Feiwen took off the Crystal Suit the moment he entered the space station and made sure that the air pressure and the temperature were stable.
Perhaps it was because the Immortal Cultivator, who was good at management and research, knew very well that, regardless of whether his level was higher than that of Li Yao's, his combat ability was no match for Li Yao's. It would be the same whether or not he was wearing the Crystal Suit and no matter how many layers of the Crystal Suit he was wearing.
Holding a vintage bronze box carved with the emblems of the Imperium and the Black Wind Fleet, Di Feiwen walked to Li Yao unhurriedly and bowed deeply at him. Introducing himself in a warm and gentle voice, he said, "Greetings, President Li. I am Di Feiwen. Nice to meet you."
If a person's identity and character could be determined by their voice alone, then Di Feiwen did not look like a ferocious invader at all. He did not look like a deputy commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army at all. Instead, he was more like an honest businessman who made money through amiability.
It was a pity that, according to the intelligence that Li Yao had collected, the countless enemies who had been killed by him miserably would not see him in such a way.
After obtaining Li Yao's permission, Di Feiwen opened the bronze box in the softest and slowest movements. He took out an enormous emblem of the Black Wind Fleet, a mottled flag, a sculpture or specimen of a crimson spider, a ball that contained bouncing purple flames, a black stone that did not seem to be anything special, and a bracelet made of wolf fangs.
"The Black Wind Sector, the Purple Fire Sector, the Fiery Spider Sector, the Hard Rock Sector, and the Wild Wolf Sector are the five Sectors that have attacked the Xing Yao Federation this time. The tokens that symbolize the highest power are all here. In the past, when the five Sectors were at their peak, a storm of blood would be raised if any of the tokens were lost. Countless lives and blood would be sacrificed in order to summon them again."
Di Feiwen opened the tokens of power of the five Sectors in front of Li Yao and explained unhurriedly.
