In the No. 1 spaceport of "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" …
A black starship that looked like three sharp swords slowly slid out of the orbit. The power rune arrays on its back that looked like plum blossoms spurted out dazzling exhaust flames, boosting its speed to the highest instantly. It almost tore apart the entire universe and rushed toward the sea of stars that had already begun to boil.
It was "Hurricane", Li Lingfeng's flagship!
Li Lingfeng was standing on the bridge, and Li Jialing was pacing back and forth anxiously. They were surrounded by light beams that were flashing rapidly.
Every scene that happened in space and below the ground, including Wuying Lan's desperate words just now, had been captured by them.
"Wuying Lan is wrong about that. How can he say that there are no miracles in this world? How inappropriate and discordant would it be if the farmers, miners, and assembly line workers whose lives are desperate heard such words? "
Playing with a colorful Cosmos Ring that seemed to be condensed of rainbows, Li Lingfeng smiled. "Of course, there are miracles in this world, but all the miracles are created by us, the Immortal Cultivators! We can 'create' whatever miracles we want, and we can make the miracles happen to whoever we want them to happen to! "
It was true that miracles were all created and controlled by the Immortal Cultivators.
At this moment, in "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky", the Heavenly Eye Group had a professional team of more than fifty thousand people who were responsible for "creating miracles".
They were the most brilliant script architects, picture editors, and special effects engineers, as well as specialists in journalism, directing, and psychology.
The pictures that were captured by all kinds of crystal cameras in the war in space and the siege below the ground were only the most primitive materials.
If they were directly sent out for the people of the Imperium to see, on one hand, it would not be as impactful and educational as it would be, and on the other hand, it would be difficult to grasp the occurrence of unexpected factors.
Therefore, although it was "real-time transmission" on the surface, there would actually be a delay of one to five minutes depending on the situation.
In the meantime, the professional team of fifty thousand people would be responsible for a series of filtering, editing, and splicing in the five minutes that were of paramount importance. Only in such a way could a "flawless, impactful" picture be output and the will of the Immortal Cultivators, or more precisely, Li Lingfeng and Wuying Lan, be carried out to the greatest extent.
…
At this moment, in the entire Imperium, including Gao Xiaojian below the ground of Gao Kangda, millions of ordinary people had received the picture carefully compiled by the Immortal Cultivators.
The underground Cultivators in the picture were overjoyed at first, but then they lost their wits and became desperate. Their twisted faces were so pitiful, disgusting, and hilarious.
Gao Xiaojian and his workmates who had been mechanized all burst into laughter. They were amused by the dumbfounded expressions of the Cultivators.
The ragged starships of the coalition fleet of Starlight, in contrast to the magnificence of the main-force fleet of the Imperium, were so shabby and thin that they could collapse at any moment.
Coupled with all kinds of post-production sound effects such as screams, wails, and "we're doomed", it really vividly portrayed the words "an ant trying to shake a big tree, laughably overconfident".
"If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"
Gao Xiaojian shook his head, not thinking that it was a big deal. He thought in the way that his superiors inculcated into him skillfully. "What's better than working hard and being an honest man? It was their own laziness that led to the tragedy, but they had to blame the society, the system, and the government. Together with the infiltration and instigation of the Holy League, the extraterrestrial devils, and other hostile forces in the extraterrestrial domain, they eventually committed all kinds of crimes in desperation. The only outcome is that they will hurt themselves and other people! "
"The Imperium has secured a decisive and glorious victory in the frontline, but our enemy is certainly not willing to be defeated without a sound. Even though they know that their doom is inevitable, they will still struggle and conspire with the ambitious forces inside the Imperium to raise the last bit of trouble."
In the picture, an officer of the Imperium, who was tall and strong and wearing a neat uniform, declared aloud, "However, the Imperium is invincible, and the enemy is destined to perish. For the Imperium, for the millions of people of the Imperium, and for the rise of the civilization of mankind, we will not let any enemy succeed!
"Move forward, army of the Imperium. Annihilate the lackeys of the Holy League — the Cultivators!"
"Move forward, Imperium!"
"Long live the Imperium!"
"Annihilate the Cultivators! Annihilate the Holy League! Long live the Imperium! Long live the Immortal Cultivators! Long live the civilization of mankind!"
For a moment, Gao Xiaojian was in a trance, as if he had turned into the tall, handsome officer of the Imperium who was galloping in the sea of stars on a magnificent super starship.
The artificial blood flowing around his body all flowed into his brain. He felt that he was on fire all of a sudden.
Thunderous roars echoed in the broadcast rune arrays. Gao Xiaojian's roars and the roars of his co-workers were mixed together and almost broke through the dome of the entire "Loyalty Room" …
…
"Are you ready?"
On "Hurricane", Li Lingfeng looked at Li Jialing with a smile. "You are the greatest 'miracle' that we are going to create in this war. From this moment on, you are a soaring eagle. Unleash your potential to your heart's content and seize the entire universe!"
"I'm ready."
Li Jialing stopped pacing. Taking a deep breath, he clenched his fists and said, "I can't wait any longer."
"That's good. Get ready for the battle. I will ask my most elite 'Strong Wind Squad' to follow you," Li Lingfeng said.
"Remember, there is no need to deal with the enemy's minions. Your target is the enemy's starship. If you can blow up a starship with a Crystal Suit, it will be worth a lot of publicity."
Li Lingfeng did not bring too many main-force warships for Wuying Lan on his trip.
The war between the frontline and the Holy League was not over yet after all. Now that the Imperium had swallowed a large area of space zones, the defense lines and the supply lines were greatly extended. Fleets had to be stationed everywhere in case of the counterattack of the Holy League.
Besides, the army of the Imperium itself was not an iron plate. The fleets belonged to the supreme emperor in name, but they actually belonged to the major nobles and the Sector Masters of various Sectors. The sources of soldiers, the finances, and the commanders of all levels were all under the control of the nobles and the Sector Masters. They were all doing whatever they wanted.
The vast space zone that they had just acquired was a giant cake. In order to divide the cake, the fleets of the Imperium that represented the interests of the major nobles and the experts might be fighting each other hard.
At such a moment, who would be willing to abandon the benefits of an entire planet or even a Sector and summon a fleet back to fight the Cultivators with Li Lingfeng stupidly?
The Cultivators were just cockroaches and mice. It did not matter whether they were beaten or not. Even if they were all killed, so what? What were the benefits? Could the Cultivators conjure a few resource planets and offer them to the Immortal Cultivators?
As for Li Lingfeng himself, although he was one of the best members of the middle-aged generation of the Li family and was known as the "future Kurfürst", it was an unpredictable future after all.
At the very least, he was not the leader of the Li family right now, and he was not one of the "four Kurfürst". A lot of his peers and even his uncles in the family were coveting his position, too. It would already be good enough if they did not stab him in the back. How could they possibly offer their private troops to help him?
If they were really going to summon a few fleets with their connections, it was not impossible for him to do so.
The problem was that they were not idiots, either. If they were to summon a large batch of troops, they would certainly extend their hands to the "Heavenly Eye Group" and the platform of "slaughter stream" to share his core interests.
The "Heavenly Eye Group" was nominally controlled by Wuying Lan, but in fact, it was entirely supported by him, the "future Kurfürst". The construction of the "Land of Sins", "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky", and the epic quest right now had only one purpose, which was to pave the way for him to be the leader of the Li family and one of the four Kurfürst. They would provide incessant support in terms of capital, connections, fame, control of the media, and even military credits.
Li Lingfeng could not tolerate anybody interfering with his core interests in any form.
Therefore, after much deliberation, he and Wuying Lan ran the most accurate estimation on the comprehensive capability of Starlight. Eventually, they decided to settle the problem with the armed forces of the Heavenly Eye Group, Li Lingfeng's own private troops, and a few fleets of mercenaries who were purely involved in money transactions.
The Cultivators were all mobsters. With the forces in their hands, it would be more than easy for them to crush the Cultivators.
However, the universe was too vast after all. If the Cultivators truly fled crazily without caring about anything else, it would require a lot of careful planning in order to annihilate all the cockroaches.
Therefore, even Li Lingfeng had taken action with his flagship in person, in order to achieve the most perfect outcome and consolidate the military credits to the point that nobody could say anything about it.
"At this moment, everything is under our control. The cockroaches that have haunted us for a thousand years are finally going to be stomped to death by us!"
Li Lingfeng patted Li Jialing's shoulder heavily. "Go now. The 'miracle moment' that belongs to us has begun. Go and create your own miracle!"
"Alright."
Li Jialing smiled and looked at Li Lingfeng thoughtfully. He bowed at him respectfully and took the opportunity to hide his eyes in the shadow. "I will show you a world-shaking miracle!"
