It was like a hundred billion suns were exploding in the narrow vertical pathway at the same time, congregating into a storm of light that could pierce through the entire universe and rushing toward the depths of the pathway unstoppably.
Below the vertical pathway, a lot of Immortal Cultivators were still fleeing with their hands covering their heads. They were so scared by Li Yao's unparalleled might that they did not have the courage to confront Li Yao head-on. They were trying to escape to "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" to ask for help.
However, the shrieking alarms from the crystal processors and the burning pain at their nerve endings made their bodies completely freeze. Driven by their natural instincts, they turned around in fear.
"Ahhh …"
They saw an ocean of light, heat, blast, and super-powerful radiation and high-energy particles crashing at them overwhelmingly, enshrouding them in the blink of an eye.
The Crystal Suit was melted, their skin and flesh were burnt, their blood was boiling, their bones were burnt into ash, and their souls were ripped apart into tiny bubbles in the ocean of light.
The Immortal Cultivators who had committed countless crimes did not even have the chance to scream before they were obliterated, never to be reincarnated again!
All the prisoners in the cells nearby were too dazzled by the dazzling brilliance to open their eyes.
Some of the flames and blasts even flooded into the cells through the cracks on the transparent glass wall, rushing past their heads and savaging them crazily.
It was like an infuriated river of magma that was flowing incessantly above their heads, raising surging tides.
They could only stick their heads to the ground, open their mouths, and scratch the floor hard with their fingers while they roared hysterically, melting their fury, hatred, and even their entire soul into the overwhelming tides of flames and blasts!
The roaring flames that were like the eruption of a solar storm lasted more than half a minute.
There was nothing but absolute whiteness in front of the prisoners' eyes. They could not see anything at all. Their ears were filled with the noises of the air burning and the high-speed friction of flames, too, just like what they heard when they broke into the atmosphere at a super high speed on a landing capsule.
Suddenly, everybody sensed a dull explosion from the depths of "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" below their feet. Then, the tremors that felt like mountains were collapsing echoed, as if … as if something had been completely destroyed.
The flaming storm finally stopped.
The whiteness in front of their eyes gradually faded and was replaced by traces of blood — the capillaries on their eyelids, which they could see clearly.
Before the prisoners could breathe a sigh of relief, a series of earth-shattering explosions came from the depths of their feet.
As if they were responding to the storm of light and flames just now, infinite mystic rays, blasts, and high-energy particles were spurting up along the vertical pathways in the form of a volcanic eruption, all the way to the outside of the beehive prison through the gate!
The prisoners groaned in pain again, burying their heads between their arms. Their messy minds were thinking about two questions.
First of all, with such a violent blast of spiritual energy, would that … incomparably powerful freak outside be able to withstand it?
Secondly, eh? Their arms could actually move? He could actually protect his head!
Was, was the Inescapable Net Formation gradually losing its effectiveness? ,
The second round of spiritual energy spurting from the bottom to the top lasted for more than a minute intermittently. In the end, it was the end of its flight, too.
There seemed to be something wrong with the energy system of the beehive prison. Even the illumination rune arrays and the defense shield had stopped functioning, not to mention the Inescapable Net, the super magnetic shackle that bound the prisoners tightly!
The prisoners staggered to their feet, wiping the blood flowing out of their eyes, nostrils, ears, and mouths. Shaking their dizzy heads hard, they looked at the shackles on their wrists and ankles that were gradually dimming, not having the slightest clue what had happened.
They only knew that …
Firstly, the shackles had lost their effect, and they were now able to perform the lightest and fastest movement techniques at will!
Secondly, after so many rounds of repetitive savagery, the transparent glass wall in front of them was riddled with holes. Even if it had not completely collapsed yet, it was very easy for them to leave a moderately large hole on it.
Thirdly, all the jailers in the beehive prison had died without a burial. Right now, the prison belonged to them!
Fourthly —
All the prisoners looked at Li Yao, who was still floating in the vertical pathway at the center of the thousands of prison cells in shock, astonishment, confusion, and admiration!
At first, he had burnt a lot of cells and mitochondria, turning them into the purest energy to bombard the energy relay station of the beehive prison. Then, he had resisted the recoil caused by the explosion of the energy relay station and even absorbed part of the spiritual energy that had escaped for his own use. Protected by the flames of spiritual energy in the Divinity Transformation Stage, Li Yao's' Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit's wings did not seem to be damaged at all. The Blood Wings did not show the slightest sign of damage. Instead, under the wide wings, there was a layer of flickering flames, making it seem even more arrogant, domineering, and powerful.
Such a powerful form simply made the hearts and minds of all the prisoners agitated, giving birth to the urge to prostrate themselves in worship.
"Who is he exactly?"
"Why is he so strong?"
Ten thousand question marks popped up in the prisoners' heads.
They might not have been Immortal Cultivators, but having grown up in the Imperium of True Human Beings where the strong preyed on the weak, they were naturally awed by the strong. Li Yao's mysteriousness and magnificence pierced into their hearts like burning nails!
Hiu! Hiu! Hiu! Hiu!
Hiu! Hiu! On Li Yao's back, the wings almost forty meters long were retracted, rolled, and snapped. Thousands of feathers darted out like a storm. Every feather pierced into the transparent glass walls of the thousands of prison cells like a tiny flying sword.
In the next moment, Li Yao made a gesture with his hands and changed into almost ten thousand gestures. Thousands of spiritual threads vaguely extended out of his fingers and pulled the thousands of feathers.
The thousands of feathers turned from red to gold, from gold to dazzling white, and finally into furiously burning flames, burning a hole more than two meters in diameter on the transparent glass walls of all the prison cells!
As a result, even the prisoners who could not escape from the prison cells with their own strength were able to breathe the freshest air!
"Hooray!"
"Hooooooo!"
"Aooooo!"
Many prisoners jumped out of the holes in a hurry before the orange substances at the edge of the holes cooled down.
They stared at Li Yao thoughtfully at first before they looked down curiously, trying to see what damage Li Yao's attack had caused.
After a glance, everybody was completely dumbfounded.
Far below the beehive prison, the pathways and the metal structures had been completely melted into a cluster of boiling magma. As far as their eyes could reach, they could see nothing but redness and orange.
It could vaguely be seen that the shell of the energy relay station had been blown up, and a series of small-scale explosions were still taking place inside. It seemed that not only had the beehive prison completely lost the energy supply, but the main power source of "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" might also be affected.
If the main power source of "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" was interfered with or even completely destroyed, it would mean that the space fortress had lost the ability to drive the spiritual shield and the anti-gravity rune arrays. Then … it would certainly be a big trouble!
"Was … Was it really done by one person?"
"It's even more unbelievable than the damage caused by an entire army!"
"Who is he exactly? What does he want?"
Witnessing the damage that Li Yao had caused on his own, all the prisoners shuddered hard. Their every nerve ending was shaking under the pressure of Li Yao's dominance.
More and more prisoners broke out of the cages, but they did not know what to do next. They were all in the dark, boundless sea of stars. There was nowhere to run at all!
The prisoners, the monsters that were neither human nor ghost, the poor people who had been tortured, the common miners, the farmers, and even the hapless bottom-level Immortal Cultivators in the past, all looked at Li Yao at a loss.
The hellish march that had been bombarding the beehive prison all the time did not stop. Even though the energy supply of the entire prison had run dry and the broadcast rune arrays had all been blown up, the provocative and explosive music was more and more passionate and resonant. This time, it was directly bursting out of Li Yao's body!
"Don't look at me like that. I'm not here to save you!"
Li Yao's first words completely dumbfounded all the prisoners.
What did he mean? After killing so many jailors, destroying the great array of the 'Dragnet', and setting them all free, he claimed that he was not here to save them?
"I am a Cultivator. I am a resister who does not want to be enslaved, tortured, and tortured forever and live a dark, miserable life that is worse than death!"
Li Yao glanced around coldly. His voice spread out like thunder through the waves of spiritual energy. "The army of the Cultivators is attacking 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky'. We will destroy this place even at the cost of our lives. It's as simple as that!"
"Cultivators!"
The prisoners were all shocked.
In the propaganda of the Imperium of True Human Beings, the 'Cultivators' were not a formidable enemy. In many cases, they only appeared as a foil for the people of the Holy League and the extraterrestrial devils.
However, the enormous damage that Li Yao demonstrated just now was enough to overturn all the prisoners' fixed impressions about the 'Cultivators'.
Li Yao's explanation about the Cultivators also raised strong echoes in the hearts of the prisoners.
"Forever enslaved, forever tortured, forever living a life worse than death, a life of darkness and bleakness!"
Was it not a description of their lives?
The prisoners struggled to swallow their bloody saliva. Looking at Li Yao's awe-inspiring appearance, many of them were breathing fast, and their hands with sharp claws clenched into fists without them knowing it.
"No one can save you, only you can save yourselves!"
Li Yao continued bellowing, "Right now, the fleet of the Cultivators is fighting the fleet of the Immortal Cultivators in space. We are willing to sacrifice ourselves here and blow up 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky'!
