It was a war that human beings — and any carbon-based intelligent life — could not imagine.
On the cruel battlefield of the ancient giant planet with thousands of times the standard gravity, two Great Red Spots that were more than a thousand kilometers in diameter collided brutally with a super cyclone that was even more violent than a level-13 hurricane on an ordinary planet.
At the front where the two cyclones collided, billions of lightning pierced deeply into each other's bodies like spears, building a bridge of death that led to annihilation.
Countless plasma cells lunged at the enemy through the bridge of lightning. They burned their lives for only a few seconds, releasing the most intense electromagnetic radiation, "bombarding" their own atomic vibration frequency onto the enemy.
If the plasma cells on the opposite side could not withstand the "bombardment" of the attacker and unknowingly changed their atomic vibration frequency to be the same as the attacker, it would be equivalent to being "infected" and "transformed" into a member of the attacker.
The two clusters of plasma cells were "close to each other" just like that, swallowing and transforming each other. Perhaps they were evenly matched, and neither could transform the other, but after all the electromagnetic radiation was exhausted, they would be annihilated together in the form of an explosion.
This was a slaughterhouse of hand-to-hand combat.
In a battlefield of a higher scale and a larger range, a large number of plasma cells did not directly participate in the battle. Instead, they tried their best to increase the wind pressure and wind speed of the Great Red Spot where they were, releasing the cantilever of a storm, trying to directly shatter the enemy's Great Red Spot and swallow the enemy's super cyclone.
Such a "war" could often last for several days and nights. On the time scale of plasma cells, it was an epic battle that lasted hundreds or even thousands of years.
In such a protracted battle, the red phosphorus fire of both parties would burn fiercely, increasing the brightness of the two Great Red Spots by a level.
Perhaps, this was the poet, singer, and historian of the lightning civilization. They sang, lamented, and recorded the glorious, cruel, sad, moving, magnificent, and tragic, meaningless war!
In the end, one of the parties was defeated. All the lightning was annihilated, all the red phosphorus fire dimmed, and the atomic vibration frequency of all the plasma cells was forcibly changed into the appearance of the victor. Even the Great Red Spot where they lived was shattered and swallowed by the victor's Great Red Spot, turning into a super Great Red Spot that was more than three thousand kilometers in diameter.
The strong preyed on the weak, and the survival of the fittest. Even in the world of energy life forms, it was a natural principle.
The war between the Great Red Spot and the Great Red Spot lasted for a thousand years.
Countless Lightning civilizations in the Great Red Spot were wiped out, and even more civilizations were born in the new Great Red Spot. Of course, there were also Lightning Empires that had developed to the limit, but the Great Red Spot that they relied on for survival had reached the limit of life. It was fragmented and fell apart, causing the "tragedy" of a civilization that had lasted for hundreds of millions of generations to be destroyed overnight.
All in all, by the time Lu Qingchen, Li Yao, and the exploration fleet of human beings arrived at the periphery of the ancient giant planet, the Lightning Civilization had already developed to an unprecedented and brilliant level.
Basically, the lightning life was already capable of highly condensing and controlling plasma cells, constructing all kinds of delicate and complicated structures. They had also explored almost all the Great Red Spots in the atmosphere of the ancient giant planet, finding and occupying every fertile land that was suitable for the development of a civilization. They also boasted the elementary space cruising abilities and could build 'lightning warships' that were a thousand kilometers long to get rid of the gravity of the ancient giant planet and stay near the ancient giant planet briefly. That was their glorious and terrifying form that Li Yao saw.
However, that was the limit.
The world that they were born in had played a cruel joke on them. Their civilization had just been born. In the short two thousand years, which was not even a moment in the scale of the universe, they had already ushered in the end.
Or rather, when the first plasma cell was awakened from ignorance and struggled fiercely for survival, they had already been sealed by the desperate fate.
It was the sign of a supernova explosion, which brought a lot of rare elements and special radiation to the ancient giant planet. That was how such a miraculous life form was created and evolved into a unique civilization in a myriad of forms.
However, the complete explosion of the supernova would have a serious impact on the ancient giant planet and completely destroy the entire world that they depended on for survival.
They were lives that lived in lightning, and the birth of lightning was inseparable from energy, magnetic field, and atmosphere. Not to mention the complete collapse of the ancient giant planet, the loss of the atmosphere and magnetic field was already a catastrophe that they could not bear.
The lightning life had keenly sensed the changes in the magnetic field of the ancient giant planet decades ago.
A few months ago, the appearance of the Empyrean Transcendence Sector, which abruptly changed the gravitational and magnetic field of the ancient giant planet and its satellite system, further worsening the living environment of the lightning life form.
A few months was thousands of generations for the lightning life form. Of course, they tried everything to save themselves, to survive, to fight against the world, and to resist the catastrophe.
Unfortunately, no matter how they changed themselves and even the form of lightning and the Great Red Spot, they could not stop the collapse of the ancient giant planet and the annihilation of the magnetic field, let alone the explosion of the two supernovae.
In a sense, the lightning life form was a life form on the microscopic level. How could they stop the supernova explosion and the planetary destruction on the macroscopic level?
Then, there was only one way left.
Escape. Escape. Escape from the ancient giant planet at all costs. Escape from the ancient giant planet and turn from a "planetary life form" into a "cosmic life form", just like what human beings and other carbon-based intelligent life forms had once tried.
A planet was just the cradle of life, and the sea of stars was the home of life.
The lightning life form spent about a month experimenting with all kinds of plans to "save the ancient giant planet" and came to the conclusion that it could not be saved. Then, it spent another month and countless generations of "people" exploring all kinds of sailing methods in the sea of stars.
It was a pity that their lives were too short after all. Countless generations of "people" in the microscopic sense could not find the answer in the macroscopic sense.
It was almost impossible to cross the resource-deficient belt in the vast sea of stars with the structure of pure energy. They would be exhausted, dissipated, and annihilated before they could fly hundreds of millions of kilometers.
The ancient giant planet, on the other hand, was too massive, and its gravitational force was too strong, which prevented them from refining all kinds of materials into a solid and stable shell that could carry the extremely active energy life form.
It was an almost unsolvable problem.
However, the lightning life form had no choice but to try again and again in vain under the drive of survival instinct.
The appearance of Lu Qingchen, Li Yao, and the exploration fleet of human beings gave them a chance of survival.
It was somewhat out of Li Yao's expectations. His speculation at the beginning was wrong. The lightning life form's attack on the exploration fleet was not "hunting" or even a real attack but "exploration" on a different level.
It did make sense on second thought. Infinite energy was still stored on the ancient giant planet at this moment. If it were only for temporary survival, the lightning life form would not have gone through all the trouble to break away from the atmosphere and the gravitational sphere and fly to millions of kilometers away to swallow the exploration fleet at all.
If the ancient giant planet had always been in a stable state, however close the exploration fleet was to the ancient giant planet, the lightning life form probably would not have been interested in human beings at all, just like human beings would not have been interested in cold rocks at all.
But things were different right now. The ancient giant planet was about to be destroyed. The lightning life form, having nowhere else to go, was unwilling to miss the slightest possibility of escape.
The starships, the Crystal Suit, and the Colossi of human beings represented a brand-new, rather stable, special magnetic field and spiritual energy circulation structure that could allow them to cross the sea of stars in the eyes of the lightning life form.
The model of such a special magnetic field and the algorithm of the circulation of spiritual energy had never been seen before in the billions of generations of genetic mutations of the lightning life form.
Therefore, the lightning life form sent out their own "exploration fleet" to the exploration fleet of human beings, which were two super torrents of plasma one after another.
They were not malicious at all, and they did not feel that they were attacking and destroying, because they did not realize that the exploration fleet of human beings was a "life", too. Or rather, if they had a certain primitive and ignorant religion, they might have considered the exploration fleet of human beings to be the gospel that the "god" had given them, who had taught them a brand-new structure that could allow them to escape from their home and march into the sea of stars. It was the "ark" that would save them from the abyss of misery.
Therefore, after the super torrents of plasma shattered the two fortresses and passed dozens of starships, they showed the appearance of the fortresses and the starships. They were indeed learning and imitating it clumsily, trying to find a way to maintain or store the lightning for a longer period of time.
Li Yao and the exploration fleet, on the other hand, turned off the power source and the spiritual shield time and time again and activated the most powerful flames of spiritual energy. Such a clumsy tactic worked, too, because in the eyes of the lightning life form, it was perfectly justified and natural. The powerful energy would naturally perish after a brief outburst, which meant "death" and no longer worth exploring.
As for how the energy of "death" could be "resurrected", it was far beyond their understanding and understanding.
Even right now, when all the plasma cells inside the super torrent of lightning were about to dry up and perish, it was still carrying out its mission dutifully, exploring and learning the way in which the neurobiological electric currents inside Li Yao's body flowed and functioned, trying to condense into a "human figure".
It did not realize at all that magnetic fields and energy were not enough but that stable materials were required to restrain and support everything so that it could jump from the microscopic to the macroscopic level.
It was just like a stupid but stubborn student who had devoted a hundred times more diligence to the wrong direction, trying, struggling, and struggling nonstop.
That was the story of the lightning life form that was born in the ancient giant planet.
