Naturally, not all the space pirates were so "sensible". Some of them were fearless or brainless and rose up to resist.
However, under the suppression of Boss Bai's thunderous might in the Divinity Transformation Stage, their resistance was shattered and obliterated without a sound before it raised any waves.
Half an hour later, all the space pirates were disarmed, and the critical locations in the Blue Sky Market fell into the hands of the Big Bai Pirate Gang.
Only the regular army was still resisting with the secret fortresses and the firepower points.
Their combat ability and fighting will were much higher than that of the space pirates who were always on the fence. If they were to be annihilated, the Big Bai Pirate Gang would certainly be greatly outnumbered, which would only make things worse for the Big Bai Pirate Gang.
Boss Bai did not intend to completely annihilate those people, either. The experienced, well-trained veterans in the regular army were more disciplined and honorable than the space pirates anyway. They were the greatest wealth. He was reluctant to kill them all, either.
"Then …"
Shaking away the hot blood on his saber, Boss Bai stared at the flickering stars in the burning sky. "The next battlefield will be space!"
Tides surged out of the power rune arrays of the Crystal Suit. Boss Bai turned into a streak of brilliance and charged at the battlefield in space!
…
In the space battlefield, a fierce battle was going on.
"Eternal Spring", the flagship of Li Wuji's fleet, was being attacked by more than ten rapid warships of the Cultivators. Like a buffalo surrounded by hyenas, the enormous body of the Cultivators dashed left and right, but it could not break out of the enemy's fire net at all. Instead, the enemy's fierce firepower was pouring in through the wounds on its body.
The spiritual shield and the defense rune arrays of Eternal Spring were completely out of control. Every round of firepower raised an earthshaking explosion. Tremendous broken materials and even the broken limbs of the Immortal Cultivators were absorbed into the vacuum, spurting out like the blood of a behemoth.
Suddenly, dazzling brilliance burst out of the head of Eternal Spring, and a Colossus that was as white as jade leaped out of the brilliance. The honeycomb-type magazines on the shoulder blossomed like lotuses, and hundreds of streaks of brilliance burst out dazzlingly, taking down dozens of space shuttles of the Cultivators and blowing up a rapid warship by brute force. The pressure that Eternal Spring was faced with was greatly reduced.
The Colossus was exactly the "Lotus Buddha" that Li Wuji was piloting in person!
When the Colossus showed up, the heated battlefield froze for a moment. Everybody was deeply awed by the flames of spiritual energy that he released.
Li Wuji's mood, however, did not improve at all because of the stagnation.
As far as the eye could see, the chaos and horror of the battlefield of the stars caused him to be unable to refrain from feeling dizzy, and he simply wanted to spit out three liters of blood and cry loudly.
The fleet that he had painstakingly built for decades and exhausted all the resources of himself and his allies was finished.
Most of the starships had been crushed or ejected the moment they entered the four-dimensional space. They were either turned into cold iron coffins, in which all the crew members inside were killed by the flying blades made of space ripples, or twisted into enormous iron pretzels with serial explosions. The crew members turned into gory sparks that burst out from the wounds that were riddled with holes.
A main-force starship such as Eternal Spring, which had a sturdy structure and a high defense ability, might've been lucky enough to escape the scourge of the four-dimensional storm. However, the consequence of running the defense rune arrays and the damage control system crazily at the cost of the maximal computational ability was that the "backdoor" was wide open, and the virus of the Cultivators' crystal processors marched in.
The wretched "A Boxing Champion" Lei Zonglie hacked their war network through the "backdoors" that had been planted in advance, tearing apart their command, cooperation, defense, and combat systems. They were all jammed and completely paralyzed.
A modern war was a war of systems. A single starship or a single Colossus was not enough to decide the outcome of a war.
Command and communication were the most important things!
In terms of comprehensive capability, the fleet that the Cultivators had just looted in the recent half a year and was as ragged as a beggar was far from a match for Li Wuji's fleet.
However, they had chosen the perfect timing of their attack, and they had sabotaged the command and communication systems of Li Wuji's fleet, isolating every starship of the Immortal Cultivators that was still capable of fighting. With the absolute advantage in number, firepower, and mobility in the local battlefield, the situation was reversed miraculously.
Of course, what was a miracle for the Cultivators was no less than the most absurd nightmare for the Immortal Cultivators.
Li Wuji watched as his starships were blown up one after another by the Cultivators, losing all their impetus, and could only drift in the current and crash into the debris. Perhaps, a series of explosions would've been triggered. He felt that his heart was about to explode.
"* sshole, I will not spare any of you! None of you!"
His eyes bloodshot and his hair messy, Li Wuji screamed inside the spiritual residence of the Lotus Buddha, his Colossus. Very soon, he locked onto a warship of the Cultivators that was the largest in size and had the most intense spiritual waves. Driving his Colossus, he charged at it.
It should be the flagship of the Cultivators.
Blowing up the flagship of the Cultivators with the unparalleled combat ability of the Colossi was perhaps the only chance to turn the tables around in such a clean decapitation strategy.
The Lotus Buddha accelerated to the highest speed, covering thousands of kilometers in the blink of an eye. It was already possible to see the emblem of the Iron A Boxing Champion painted on the two sides of the enemy's flagship.
Suddenly, the gate below the flagship of the Cultivators was slowly opened. Something that looked like an iron shooting star was released, with dazzling helical exhaust flames spurting out of it, charging at Li Wuji precisely.
"How bold of you, scoundrel!"
The invisible mystic rays that the Lotus Buddha unleashed penetrated the iron shooting star like a tide, but it did not detect any intense spiritual waves.
Knowing that the enemy was not a Colossus, Li Wuji couldn't help but sneer nonstop. "You are just a cluster of garbage, and you are bold enough to stand in front of my Colossus? How long can such a thing stop me? Ten seconds? Twenty seconds? Half a minute? "
While he was talking, the iron shooting star had already lunged at Li Wuji, but it slowly unfolded in the sea of stars and turned into an iron giant hundreds of meters tall!
Although it was a giant hundreds of meters tall, it was exactly as Li Wuji said. All kinds of cables, gears, and tubes were exposed to the vacuum, as if they were jumbled up by garbage. It was almost a human-shaped mountain of garbage that did not have any combat ability at all.
"Are you 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie?"
Li Wuji sneered. Ripples of spiritual energy in the shape of lotuses spread out of the arms of the Colossus and blew at the chest of the iron giant hundreds of meters tall. "Big but useless. Too weak to withstand a single blow!"
BOOM!
The tides of spiritual energy raised by the Lotus Buddha raised ripples in the shape of lotuses on the chest of the iron giant, piercing through the chest of the iron giant by brute force. Even the limbs that were barely connected to each other were showing signs of breaking and collapsing.
It seemed to be exactly as Li Wuji said. "Too weak to withstand a single blow".
However, before Li Wuji let out a sneer of mockery, the iron giant almost a hundred meters tall had exploded on its own!
The tremendous crystal bombs buried deep inside the chest were detonated consecutively, blowing out a highly unstable magnetic field that swallowed Li Wuji's Lotus Buddha like a bloody mouth. It seriously interfered with the scanning of the Colossus and Li Wuji's senses, turning him into a deaf and blind man for one second.
One second later, the vipers made of the broken remains of the iron giant tied up the limbs of the Lotus Buddha tightly.
Dozens of small spiritual puppets less than two meters tall, which had been lurking inside the body of the iron giant sordidly in the first place, all exploded at this moment. While the Lotus Buddha was at a loss, they crawled to the body of the Colossus and searched for the tiniest gap. Zi! Zi!
"Zi, zi, zi, zi, zi!"
Zi! Zi! The fingers of those small spiritual puppets could be transformed into all kinds of delicate tools. Once they found a gap on the body of the Colossus, they immediately began to cut and dig crazily, trying to invade the Colossus, cut off the tubes of spiritual energy and fuel, and even enter the spiritual residence to seize Li Wuji directly.
Li Wuji intended to perform the decapitation strategy on the Cultivators, but he did not expect that "A Boxing Champion" Lei Zonglie, who had an amazing life form, would also crawl into his spiritual residence and perform the decapitation strategy on him!
Having just woken up from the serial explosions, he immediately discovered that dozens of annoying bugs had crawled to his Colossus. Both exasperated and panicked, Li Wuji finally realized that he had been tricked by "A Boxing Champion" Lei Zonglie. The iron giant hundreds of meters tall was not the original body of A Boxing Champion at all but an exaggerated disguise. One of the small spiritual puppets was his real self!
"Damn it. You are truly a shameless Cultivator!"
Li Wuji bellowed. Flames of spiritual energy surged out of the Lotus Buddha's body like surging tides, trying to blow away or burn the spiritual puppets that had crawled onto him.
He was partly successful. Almost ten spiritual puppets were indeed burnt into garbage by his flames of spiritual energy and blown far away.
However, some of the spiritual puppets were made of unknown materials. Even the temperature of thousands of degrees was not enough to destroy their internal functions. After tearing tiny cracks on the body of the Colossus, they even extended sharp thorns from their "mouths" and stabbed in brutally.
Astronomical information immediately flooded into the mainframe crystal processor of the Lotus Buddha, attacking the firewall and competing with Li Wuji for the control of the Colossus.
It was almost like A Boxing Champion was trying to occupy Li Wuji's Colossus as his newest body!
Li Wuji was stunned by the enemy's uncanny tactics. For a moment, he was somewhat at a loss.
However, he realized what was going on after only half a second. After a shriek, he controlled the crystal processor crazily and established brand-new dynamic firewalls temporarily, blocking A Boxing Champion's "consciousness", "soul", or "aggressive database" from the outside.
Li Wuji's resistance was successful — for now.
The mainframe crystal processor of the Colossus was too advanced after all. It was not something that the Fist King could hack quickly.
However, such resistance almost drained all the computational ability of the Colossus, too. Li Wuji did not even detect … another Colossus that had appeared behind him without a sound.
It was a bright gray, inconspicuous, if not sordid, Colossus.
It was like a super-enormous iron rat more than twenty meters tall.
No. Compared to a rat, the Colossus, whose elbows and toes were embedded with curved blades, was even more ferocious and hideous. It was more like … more like a velociraptor from the primeval age who was agile, fast, and highly aggressive.
