The words' destroy Earth 'exploded inside Li Yao's soul brutally like four earth-shattering super bombs.
Are you kidding me? So, my destiny is to destroy Earth? To hell with your bullsh * t!
Li Yao really didn't want to be "dumbfounded" anymore, because that would make him look very stupid. However, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, because the explosive truth was simply too unbelievable!
Earth, the solar system, and even the entire universe before his eyes were shaking, as if a splendid palace of stars was about to collapse.
Not good. My mind is shaken!
Li Yao secretly cried that it was not good.
He had indeed grasped the mysteries of the Divinity Transformation Stage, but he was more shocked than ever by the message of 'destroy Earth' at the last moment. How could he maintain the balance of the 'ecological system of his soul'?
Li Yao was very clear that if the 'palace of stars' completely collapsed and buried his consciousness inside, he would be mentally deranged, his soul would disperse, and his body would be obliterated. He would be killed in the so-called 'apocalypse'.
In the worst case, he would be twisted beyond recognition. There was no telling what kind of things would crawl out of the debris of his soul, and what kind of terrible things they would do for the mission of 'destroy Earth'!
No. He could not allow such a thing to happen!
Run!
Li Yao's consciousness shrieked and ran away. He was running away as fast as he had fallen into the deepest part of his soul at the beginning.
The illusions of Earth, the solar system, the stars, and the entire universe were collapsing and exploding nonstop behind him. He was like a dry leaf in the middle of a wild wind that could be caught by the wind at any moment and torn into shreds.
But he had no time to consider what he would look like if he were truly mentally deranged. All he could think about was running, running, and running!
Hiu!
Li Yao's consciousness dashed out of the deepest crack deep inside his soul. Deafening screams were still echoing from the crack, and black pillars of smoke were rising from the crack like thousands of weird tentacles, trying to drag him back. They almost caught the ends of his consciousness many times.
But in the end, when his consciousness was about to be torn apart, he struggled hard and jumped out of the surface of his sea of consciousness. He returned to reality from the state of introspection!
"Not good! Fellow Daoist Li's soul is in chaos. He's in great danger!"
"Fellow Daoists, quickly protect him and help him stabilize his soul!"
"How is this possible? How could the depths of his Divine Soul contain such a powerful force? What is this —"
Li Yao immediately heard the surprised exclamations of Meng Chixin, Wu Suiyun, Yan Liren, and Master Bitter Cicada. He sensed that four surging forces were flooding into his body, trying to close the crack in the deepest part of his sea of consciousness, only to trigger the counterattack of even more powerful forces deep inside his soul. He also heard bubbling sounds as if the high-energy nutrition liquids made of infinite Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were all boiling. Even the high-pressure cabin of the ancillary fuel, which was made of seven alloys and as tough as the shell of a starship, was squeaking because of fatigue!
"Fellow Daoists, make way!"
Li Yao's soul trembled madly. "It's going to explode!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Before the trembling of the soul subsided, the high-pressure cabin that had a shell half a meter thick took place. The overwhelming nutrition liquids and spiritual energy were spreading out at the same time. The four unparalleled experts, two in the Divinity Transformation Stage and two at the peak of the Yuanying Stage, were all blown away like kites whose strings had been cut!
Li Yao was of a mind to apologize to the four fellow Cultivators.
But he could barely protect himself right now. While undercurrents were surging deep inside his sea of consciousness, surging tides were surging on the surface of his sea of consciousness, too.
His consciousness was like a small boat that was riddled with holes, struggling in the wind, rain, and waves. The only thing he could do was to clench his teeth and maintain a faint trace of clarity.
There was no telling how long it took, but the storm gradually stopped, and the surging tides gradually subsided, too.
Under the suppression of Li Yao himself and the four experts, the black pillars of smoke condensed by the information in the past all retreated. The gap deep inside his sea of consciousness was temporarily controlled.
Li Yao sensed that his surroundings were a mess. The high-pressure cabin had been torn apart into sharp shards that deeply embedded into the walls of the cabin.
Some of them were even melted into liquids at a high speed, only to be solidified again after they hit the walls, turning into lackluster pearls.
It was truly a gory scene.
Thankfully, Li Yao had long known the perils of the Divinity Transformation Stage. He had deployed defense rune arrays of the highest level outside of the cabin. Except for the four unparalleled experts, there was not a single worker in the cabin. Finally, the loss was kept to a minimum.
Li Yao sensed that a large batch of doctors had rushed in. They hurried to carry him into the medical cabin and soaked him in the cold, moist medicinal liquids.
In the meantime, he examined his brain slowly again, paying special attention to the situation inside and outside his soul.
Thankfully, he reacted in time and did not get lost in the collapsed palace of his soul. He was not caught in the worst situation of mental derangement.
On the contrary, the violent strength that popped up from the deep gaps inside his soul collided brutally with the suppression of the four unparalleled experts, raising the most powerful blasts and expanding his brain significantly.
The Divinity Transformation Stage this time was not a complete failure, but it was not a complete success yet.
After the examination, he found that he was not wounded, and there were not too many hidden problems. Li Yao was finally able to take a long breath in relief.
As long as he was willing, he could wake up on his own at any time.
But he would rather soak in the medical cabin for a while longer so that he could consider certain … minor issues while he was floating.
"Wow! Wow! Wow! "
The mental devil crawled out of a certain corner and pretended to be shocked in front of him. It bit its fingers and shrieked, "I didn't know that this was the truth. So, our 'Monster Li' is the ultimate supervillain who is going to destroy Earth!"
At this moment, its appearance had undergone drastic changes, too. Not only was a layer of delicate and hideous bloody armor automatically secreted and condensed on the surface of its body, six pairs of bloody wings that were wreathed in black gas had also grown out of its back. Even two thick and long horns of devils had grown out of its head. It looked ten times more evil than before!
Li Yao frowned. "How did you end up like this?"
The mental devil grinned hideously. "This is all thanks to you. Although your attempt to break into the Divinity Transformation Stage was not a complete success, it was not exactly a failure. As a result, your brain has been further expanded, and your level has been slightly improved. Also, overwhelming negative feelings have popped up in your head, which are even darker than those of Extraterrestrial Devil Mo Xuan and Extraterrestrial Devil Lu Qingchen. After swallowing all of that, I am naturally stronger than before!"
"I know that," Li Yao said. "But you can obviously change your appearance freely, right? So, even if you are stronger than before, why did you have to show up with six wings and a pair of horns?"
"Well, to match the theme of 'Destroy Earth', I changed my appearance to create a better atmosphere!"
Sniffing its lips, it retreated the horns, the wings, and the bloody armor. Sitting in midair, it stared at Li Yao solemnly and continued comforting him. "I know that your mind is in a mess right now, and you don't want to accept everything. But brother, on second thought, although it is unexpected, it is also reasonable. It is very reasonable!"
Li Yao frowned even harder. "Hey, hey, hey. Please explain. What do you mean by 'unexpected, reasonable'? What do you mean by 'reasonable'?"
"You see, most of the crises that we have encountered have one thing in common. The people who seem righteous, bright, and kind on the surface are actually the great devils in the darkness!"
The mental devil analyzed carefully. "Also, the more righteous, bright, and kind they appear to be, and the more power they have, the higher the level of the 'devil' will be!
"Yan Xibei, Xiao Xuance, Zhou Hengdao, Lu Zui, Extraterrestrial Devil Mo Xuan … They are all the same!
"Then, here comes the question. After shattering the schemes of Extraterrestrial Devil Mo Xuan and Lu Qingchen, unifying the edge of the cosmos, and even your wife is elected as the Speaker of the Federation, who in the thousands of lightyears nearby can be more powerful and more honorable than Vulture Li Yao, dominator of three Sectors and master of Black Wind?
"When I first entered the Pangu laboratory, I thought that there was something wrong with Long Yangjun and that she might have turned into the role of a great devil. But on second thought, she did not meet either of the two criteria.
"In terms of image, she was not honorable at all. She seemed to be neither good nor evil since the very beginning.
"In terms of power, she, who was only 'Lead Eunuch Wang Xi' on the surface, was even more incomparable to you. She could not even compare to one of your little fingers.
"That's why I said, how could she be the Great Demon King? Sure enough, after she told you her true feelings, she ran away."
"Wait."
Li Yao raised his hands in protest. "What do you mean by 'telling me her secret'? She and I are pure friends. Besides, she is not necessarily 'she'. Chances are that a tail similar to the Nuwa Clan is hidden below her crotch, which can be inserted into the operation holes of all kinds of primeval magical equipment and perform thousands of techniques. What if it is specifically designed to do so? "
"Those are just details that do not matter," the mental devil said. "The most important thing is that, with your identity and position today, few people are qualified to call themselves' great devils' in front of you. Therefore, it is not strange at all that you have discovered that you are the real unparalleled devil!"
"Not strange, my ass!"
Li Yao sniffed and slowly recovered from the initial shock. Holding his arms, he said, "Why would I destroy Earth for no reason, just because there is such a voice inside my head? Long Yangjun is right. Am I going to eat sh * t if the voice asks me to?
