BOOM!
Together with Li Yao's bellow, the output of Arsonist was increased again, far beyond its load. Dozens of flames that looked like wings spurted out of its back. The crimson flames were raging, as if they were declaring war on the behemoth right next to them.
The falling momentum of Iron Fist had indeed been stopped by Li Yao on his own. Furthermore, the cutting-edge arsenal warship was still rising under the push of Arsonist, trying to get rid of the terrifying gravity trap!
Pu!
Such an unbelievable technique naturally came with a gory price. Li Yao felt that countless high-energy particles and invisible electric arcs were darting close from the atmosphere of the ancient giant, penetrating through the Colossus and his chest, making his internal organs feel like they were on fire. He could not help but vomit a mouthful of black blood.
But he still persisted and raised Iron Fist one inch, one inch, and another inch against the gravity of the giant planet!
"Li Yao …"
"Vulture …"
"Black Wind King …"
Everybody on Iron Fist learned that Li Yao had come to the rescue on his own. They even saw the intimidating shadow of Arsonist clearly through the surveillance cameras. They were all dazed for a moment.
It was especially so for the researchers of fundamental disciplines from the Imperium of True Human Beings, such as the astronomers and the scientists of spiritual energy.
In the Imperium where the strong were respected, the non-battle-type Immortal Cultivators such as them, even though they had advanced into the Yuanying level and boasted a certain social position and reputation, never dared to expect that a battle-type Immortal Cultivator would come to their rescue at the risk of his own life at the critical moment.
"Why?"
Many Immortal Cultivators were confused. "Why would he abandon his life, which is so 'important', to save the insignificant people like them?"
In any case, before they could solve this mystery, there were already waves of heat surging out from the deepest part of their hearts and flowing through their entire body, activating every cell in their body. Steam was released from their 108,000 pores.
"Even Li Yao has devoted himself to the battle. We must not admit defeat, either! So what if Gu Juxing is strong? At the very least, we are still alive. To live is to fight non-stop. Fellow Daoists, let us stay at our posts and fight to the very end! "
A Boxing Champion's steel-like roar also sounded the bugle horn in the depths of Iron Fist Club to charge.
A shocking scene unfolded.
Faced with the enormous planets that were about to rip them apart and squash them, nobody was scared at all. After taking a deep breath, the most dazzling brilliance beamed out of their hearts, granting them infinite courage and strength.
Dragging their wounded bodies, the astronomers lunged to the front of the crystal processors and released probe balls into the methane atmosphere of the ancient giant, seizing the last moment to collect and analyze the data inside the gaseous planet, inferring whether or not it had a liquid layer or even a dense solid core.
Psionicists, on the other hand, captured the powerful radiation and high-energy particle streams released from the ancient giant planet. They analyzed the lightning and thunder in the methane atmosphere in an attempt to find the law of the violent magnetic field and use this method to "conquer" the ancient giant planet.
The best medical specialists of mankind, on the other hand, were treating the patients attentively. They were even inserting the sharp examination chips directly into their own bodies.
As the radiation and gravity grew stronger and stronger, they recorded detailed data about their gradual exhaustion and death. The data would certainly be of great help for the survival and battles in the high-gravity and super-powerful environment in the future.
The warriors, in the meantime, put on the Crystal Suit, picked up the materials for repair and reinforcement, and lunged out of the cabin to reinforce the broken shell of Iron Fist Club. They were trying to buy more time in front of the chainsabers that the Grim Reaper was waving, and they were ready to be connected to more 'external auxiliary power units' later.
"Li Yao, we're here to help you!"
Many warriors lunged to Li Yao's side. Like him, they opened their arms and deeply embedded themselves into the shell of Iron Fist Club, boosting the power output of the Crystal Suit to the maximum and providing a tiny, feeble, upward, bright force for Iron Fist Club.
"Li Yao, we've done everything we can. Now, let's see … if more people will come to help us!"
A Boxing Champion mumbled.
"They will. They will. Trust me. Trust mankind. Trust the future. Trust hope!"
Li Yao gritted his teeth again, but the smile on his face was so brilliant that it was almost burning. "Our — our duty is to fight until the moment when hope arrives!"
Boom!
Such a crazy output finally led to a bad outcome. A power unit on the back of the Arsonist suddenly exploded, turning into a huge fireball that was surrounded by electric arcs. One of the wings that was condensed from flames was immediately broken.
The imbalance of the propulsion made Iron Fist tilt to the right. The squeaking noises of the metal due to fatigue suddenly became the sharpest. Visible gaps appeared on the shell of the starship. Squeezed by the unbalanced pressure inside and outside, a lot of materials and fuel spurted out like a storm of blood.
If such gaps were not taken care of in time, they would likely expand until the entire starship was cut in half.
"Repair them now!"
Desperate roars burst out from inside the Crystal Suit. All the crew members rushed toward the gaps in a hurry, as if they were going to block the gaps with their own flesh and blood.
"They will come … They will come … They will come … They will come!"
Li Yao's eyes were bloodshot, and tears of blood were almost flowing out. His lips were torn apart by his teeth, and blood flowed to his chest that was heaving rapidly. His brain cells were almost exploding as he recalculated the brand-new dynamic equilibrium posture after the loss of a power output point, trying to continue to resist Iron Fist.
However, the gravitational force of the ancient superstar was too strong. He felt that Iron Fist on his shoulder was getting heavier and heavier, as if a real planet was pressing on his shoulder.
"Even if — even if a real planet falls, I will push you back!"
Li Yao roared and exerted his strength again to compete with the planet, the sky, the earth, and the universe!
At this moment, the entire universe seemed to be collapsing and obliterating, turning into a battlefield of nothingness. The only thing left was the tug-of-war between him and the ancient superstar.
Just as his consciousness was becoming more and more blurred and his entire body was gradually sinking, a sharp and angry roar pierced through his brain.
"Li Yao, what are you doing exactly? Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were going to take the risk?"
It … It was not A Boxing Champion's voice. It seemed to be Ding Ling Dong's voice?
Was it an illusion?
"You dare to joke about your life without my permission? You are getting more and more unbelievable!"
No, it was not an illusion. It was really the voice from the communication channel. The communication distance of the Colossi was limited. Since he could hear Ding Ling Dong's voice so clearly, it meant that she must be very close to him!
Li Yao was so overjoyed that he was almost dancing in joy. He roared at the top of his voice without caring about anything.
"Honey, help!
"Honey, help!
"Honey, help! Ahhhhhhh!"
Ding Ling Dong showed up in "Blazing Tyrannosaur".
Boss Bai showed up in "Kleptomaniac".
Long Yangjun showed up in "Heavenly Crystal".
Yan Liren and many experts of the Ancient Sages Sector, as well as Li Yao's senior brother "Peng Hai", as well as the spectral Cultivators in the Divinity Transformation Stage, Meng Chixin, and Wu Suiyun, all showed up in the sky above the violent atmosphere of the ancient giant. Their sharp eyes were all staring at the raging lightning and red spots deep inside the enormous planet.
"What a violent magnetic field and ionosphere. It seems that quite a few radiative crystals must've been among the main elements that made up the ancient giant. That's why the atmosphere of the planet turned into such a violent and chaotic swirl."
Boss Bai said.
"Iron Fist has already fallen into the depths of the atmosphere and could be entangled by lightning at any time. Under such circumstances, to push it out again, we have to go through extremely precise calculations and everyone has to work together."
Meng Chixin said.
"We don't seem to be enough. If the Immortal Cultivators of the Imperium stand by and watch us get killed so that they can take advantage of us, it will be terrible."
Peng Hai pondered for a moment and said, "Therefore, we have to consider the matter carefully …"
Before they had the time to consider the matter carefully, Ding Ling Dong had already charged down with "Blazing Tyrannosaur". "Li Yao, don't run. I'm coming!"
Boss Bai: "…"
Meng Chixin: "…"
Peng Hai: "…"
Both the father of the nation and the former Speaker of the Federation had gone down to save him. Did they have a second choice?
"Ancient giant star? Interesting. "
Yan Liren smiled. Looking at the lightning and thunder on the surface of the planet, intense excitement beamed out of his eyes. Licking his lips, he said, "I would like to know, when a sword is fast enough, can it slash apart even the gravitational force?"
He charged down.
"Amitabha. Impulsive. That was too impulsive!"
Master Bitter Cicada sighed and shook his head while he charged down, too.
"Li Yao, you are truly the best clown in the history of the Federation!"
'Fiend Blade' Peng Hai, Li Yao's senior brother, chuckled bitterly and charged down, too.
Meng Chixin and Wu Suiyun, the two spectral Cultivators in the Divinity Transformation Stage, looked at each other and saw the tacit understanding in each other's eyes. Then, they charged down together.
With them taking the lead, the other Colossi pilots were too embarrassed to stand there and watch. They also dived down one after another.
Very soon, only Boss Bai and Long Yangjun, the two ultimate experts who were subtly neutral, were left.
Boss Bai looked at Long Yangjun.
"Why are you looking at me?"
