After Li Linghai's words, the black fog around was a hundred times more intense than before. Like swamps of ink, it enshrouded all the Crystal Suit and the Colossi.
Beep! Beep!
Beep! Beep! The navigation systems of all the Crystal Suit and the Colossi were shrieking. The data was bouncing crazily, and the pointers were spinning crazily. It was impossible to tell up, down, left, right, east, west, north, and south at all, as if they were in the vacuum of space.
The black fog even blocked the communication between each other. Scratching sounds were echoing in the communication channel, and there was not the slightest call from their companions anymore.
In the jargon of the ancient Cultivators, it was an enormous "magic gate" that could perform the technique of "ghost hitting the wall".
In the jargon of the modern Immortal Cultivators, Li Linghai had activated the interferential array hidden in the underground palace and implemented the interference battle of the highest intensity on all the Crystal Suit and the Colossi, sabotaging the navigation systems of the Crystal Suit and the localization abilities of the human brain. He even created illusions deep inside everybody's brain with mental attacks. In the meantime, multiple world fragments were opened at the same time, dragging everybody into the most mysterious and weird twisted space!
In this place, nobody could find any trace of their companions. They seemed to be faced with the boundless darkness and the most powerful Colossus, "Hellstar", all by themselves!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Including the three experts at the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage, everybody felt that their blood was freezing. They accelerated the speed of the Crystal Suit and the Colossi to the highest, hoping to escape from the "underground palace" and break through the overwhelming darkness.
However, under the full operation of the interferential array that Blackstar the Great had been working on for a thousand years, the navigation abilities of both the crystal processors and the human brain were twisted to the maximum.
They thought that they were rushing upward in a straight line, but in fact, they were dancing in the shape of "8" as if they were drunk. After a while, they returned to the original place, only to be further away from their companions.
Li Linghai's laughter was still echoing in the darkness from every direction and crawling into their Colossi, Crystal Suit, and mustard-seed combat suits. It crawled into their ears and invaded their brains like venomous bugs!
"Acyclic Earth" Yun Kuohai's face couldn't have been more twisted. He roared in fury and drove away the panic in his heart. He accelerated again and again, not knowing that he was getting further and further away from his companions, until "Hellstar" slowly surfaced from the darkness and shot a hundred tentacles at him!
Boom!
"Earth Shocker", Yun Kuohai's Colossus, unleashed a dazzling spiritual shield that set the hundred tentacles on fire.
However, Li Linghai did not notice it at all. He was still tying the thick arms of the "Earth Shocker" with his burning tentacles, drawing the distance between the two Colossi closer.
The giant face of "Hellstar" that was facing "Earth Shocker" put on a hideous smile. His eyes were glittering, and two extremely powerful and fatal mystic rays were condensing.
Kacha!
Sensing the high-energy reactions of "Hellstar", Yun Kuohai roared and tore apart a few tentacles without caring about the fatigue of the Colossus' shoulders and elbows. He managed to tilt his head to the left.
Hardly had he tilted the head of "Hellstar" when two crimson mystic rays darted out of the enormous face of "Hellstar" and brushed past the shoulders of "Earth Shocker" narrowly, leaving a deep ravine on the shoulder of the Colossus where the bones could be seen. The plate armor around was all melted.
Had he not dodged in time, the attack would've seriously damaged the detection and information processing units on the head!
At the moment of life and death, Yun Kuohai finally fully carried out the peak of the battle-type Divinity Transformation Stage. Ignoring the damage on the shoulders and the arms of the Colossus, he blinked to the back of "Hellstar" with an agility that did not match his enormous body size. On the shoulder armor, the chest, the abdomen, and the arms, all the honeycomb magazines, crystal cannons, and mystic ray cannons were activated. Hundreds of torrents of fury were launched at "Hellstar" overwhelmingly!
However, "Hellstar" was not a Colossus in the shape of a human being or a ferocious beast but a round iron ball. Naturally, there was no distinction between front and back.
The black fog around that was as intense as venom seriously weakened the power of his attack, too.
The hundreds of torrents of fury were all blocked by the spiritual shield of "Hellstar". Although "Hellstar" seemed to be retreating nonstop under the bombardment, it failed to break through Li Linghai's last defense.
Li Linghai did not dodge his attack at all. Instead, dozens of fatal mystic rays darted out of the enormous face that was right in front of him, and a hundred tentacles that were still burning were whipped at him, as if he were going to die together with Li Linghai!
Under the bombardment, the two Colossi were both enshrouded in colorful, expanding fireballs. The spiritual shields of both parties were quickly consumed. The units were seriously damaged and shrieking on the mainframe crystal processors.
In the earsplitting noises of metal fatigue, the arms of "Earth Shocker" that were as thick as the main cannons of a starship finally had shocking rips.
The tentacles of "Hellstar" were broken one after another, too. But the broken tentacles all seemed to boast independent combat abilities. They continued wandering around "Earth Shocker" like metal vipers.
In a one-on-one battle, in terms of absolute capability, Li Linghai, who was piloting "Hellstar", was still better than Yun Kuohai, who was piloting "Earth Shocker".
Of course, the gap between the two parties was not so huge that they could not compete at all.
Such a head-on, close-range battle was purely a waste of energy and soul power. It all depended on whose fighting will was stronger.
If Yun Kuohai was truly determined to fight Li Linghai to the end at the cost of his own life, he would certainly be able to make Li Linghai pay a heavy price even if his soul was obliterated, and the performance parameters of "Hellstar" would be reduced by at least half.
In such a case, "Devilish Abyss" Li Jianyi and "Star Breaker" Song Huanzhen would be able to take advantage of the situation and suppress Li Linghai, whose soul was exhausted and whose Colossus was seriously damaged, without the slightest effort.
But … how was it possible?
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The left arm of "Earth Shocker" could not withstand such a cruel attack anymore. It was entirely torn apart and exploded.
The heavy blow finally broke Yun Kuohai's limits. He bellowed and blew out the last barrage in a seemingly daunting manner. Then, he poured all his spiritual energy into the power rune arrays and turned around to run.
Li Linghai chuckled and did not continue the remote bombardment. He simply followed Yun Kuohai's back at a distance neither too far nor too close.
Yun Kuohai's "Earth Shocker" was not a speed-type Colossus with high mobility in the first place. In the environment where the black fog and the magnetic field were highly disordered, it was naturally impossible for him to get rid of Li Linghai's pursuit. Locking waves bombarded the shell of the "Earth Shocker" nonstop, making him even more upset.
He accelerated and changed directions several times in a row, only to fail to get rid of "Hellstar" behind him. In both shock and fury, he threw out a telepathic thought behind him. "Why are you only chasing after me?"
"Because you are the dumbest of all!"
Li Linghai sneered. "Other people have all guessed who I am and are hiding in the deepest part of the world fragments, waiting to take advantage of the situation after they figure out the situation. You, 'Acyclic Earth' Yun Kuohai, are the most 'fearless' of death. How can I awe the heroes of the world if I do not mince you into pieces?"
"I didn't!"
Yun Kuohai felt greatly wronged. Who was "fearless of death" and "fearless of death" and "stupid" when you were the one who had been harassing me the whole time!
However, the reconfirmation in Li Linghai's words made Yun Kuohai even more surprised and suspicious. He couldn't help but say, "You … You … You are really —"
"How bold of you!"
Li Linghai suddenly bellowed, "Now that you have guessed who I am, why are you still not submitting to me? Are you really going to be a traitor and have your entire family annihilated?"
Yun Kuohai grunted and accelerated again, but he was not faster than "Hellstar" at all. He could even vaguely hear the metal tentacles of "Hellstar" scratching his iron back softly from behind!
"Yun Kuohai, other people have all fled in fear after guessing that I am here in person. None of them have the courage to attack me. But you, on the other hand, are trying to stop me and challenge me?
"Yun Kuohai, you are only the third elder in the Yun family because you are not good at management and governance despite your unparalleled physical strength. Your offspring are all brawny but simple-minded warriors, too. Your branch is only supported by your unparalleled physical strength! If I kill you today without caring about the cost, the family that you have worked hard for hundreds of years will be gone tomorrow, and all your offspring will be annihilated!
"Yun Kuohai, do you really think that the battle today was a surprise attack on me and that I did not have any spies among you? Do you really think that General Dongfang Sheng would betray me? Haha. Hahahaha. The whole plan and all the arrangements were to lure you to the battlefield where my full strength could be carried out most so that I could fish up all of you!
"Yun Kuohai, 'Devilish Abyss' Li Jianyi and 'Star Breaker' Song Huanzhen have already wavered. Together with Dongfang Sheng, the three spies that I want to keep alive will be gathered soon. Make up your mind quickly. Don't cry in your arms with the broken souls of your family in hell!
"Yun Kuohai, don't you crave more strength? Don't you want to unlock energy forms that are more advanced than spiritual energy? Don't you plan to break into the Divinity Branching Stage or even higher levels while you are alive?
"Yun Kuohai! Yun Kuohai! Yun Kuohai! "
Thousands of thoughts crawled into Yun Kuohai's brain through the gaps of the Colossus like invisible vipers.
Yun Kuohai's soul immediately became unstable, and his spiritual energy was disrupted. Even the Colossus was shivering violently.
Suddenly, the black fog in front of him dispersed for some reason, and a new Colossus popped up.
It was a medium-sized Colossus with bronze paint. It was in a primitive and conservative style. The biggest feature of the Colossus was the tiger-striped plate armor on the chest and the protruding shoulder pads on the two sides that looked like two enormous tusks.
Yun Kuohai recognized that it was "Saber-Toothed Tiger", Dongfang Sheng's Colossus!
"General Dongfang —"
