"Pu!"
When the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber was absorbed into the Cosmos Ring, Li Yao couldn't help but vomit a mouthful of black blood. After a cracking sound, his knees hit the ground. He fell on one of his knees and breathed heavily.
The excruciating pain was crushing his nerve endings. His strength seemed to have been drained out of his body along with his cold sweat.
From the moment Wang Ji appeared above his head to the moment he turned into a cluster of blood mist and fled away, it had been no more than twenty seconds.
But it had been the most dangerous battle Li Yao had ever fought since his spiritual root was awakened.
Wang Ji had been one of the strongest high-level demon generals, even if he hadn't reached the level of a demon king yet, which equaled to the peak of the Building Foundation Stage.
Even though Li Yao had blown up the teleportation array in time and wounded him heavily, Li Yao wouldn't have been able to resist the overwhelming demonic energy of the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber, enhanced by the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber.
Take the bloody aura at the beginning for example. Had it not been for the fact that Li Yao's body was much tougher than that of common Cultivators and that the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit had been significantly strengthened, he would've been corroded into a pool of blood by the bloody aura.
Li Yao had been gritting his teeth and suppressing his wounds just now.
Now that he had the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber in his hand, he was relaxed and his internal wounds finally broke out.
The cold sweat on his skin was mixed with streaks of blood at first, which then turned into translucent blood pearls.
The weird Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber seemed to be able to attack one's cells and hematopoietic system directly, which would make the human body reject its own blood and push it out of the body, resulting in tremendous blood loss.
"If this goes on, it won't be long before I die from excessive blood loss!"
Li Yao's eyes were filled with gold and black brilliance. The sky and the earth were swirling at a high speed. It was a sign that his brain was lacking oxygen due to excessive blood loss.
Li Yao gritted his teeth and summoned his spiritual energy to block his veins and stop his blood from leaking out. At the same time, he turned on the war mission system and asked for help from the command center and the Cultivators nearby.
But out of his expectation, before he sent out his situation and location, the light beam was shattered after a weird wave.
"The Spiritual Nexus is jammed?"
"And the intensity of the jamming is very high. It's like a solar storm breaking out at a short distance and blocking the Spiritual Nexus! "
"What happened?"
Li Yao was greatly alarmed. He vaguely sensed that two unparalleled forces were rising from the two sides of the horizon. The overwhelming pressure was pressing toward him inch by inch.
At this moment. The bloody dusk was about to pass, and the deep night gradually enveloped the sky.
It was a dark and starless night ….
However, on the diagonal of the sky, there were two huge vortexes that looked like nebula storms facing each other.
It was as if two gargantuan giants in the sea of stars had slowly opened their only eyes.
The two vortexes rotated slowly. The colorful flames that were spurting out were like thousands of fiery tentacles that dyed half of the sky, making the night sky appear crazy, twisted, and colorful.
Even through the thick fog, Li Yao could see every detail of the two swirls clearly.
It was not because he had amazing eyesight, but because the two swirls were spurting out energy, information, and pressure like suns. Thoughts were even exploding deep inside his brain.
Li Yao seemed to see the figure standing at the center of the two swirls.
The figure in the south gave him a feeling of dominance, arrogance, firmness, and fanaticism.
The figure in the north. It was a bizarre-shaped black silhouette, but the feeling it gave him when it pierced into his brain was cruelty, bloodthirstiness, brutality, and destruction!
"What powerful telepathic thoughts!
"He shot out over a hundred miles, yet his thoughts and information are still so clear. What a tremendous amount of spiritual energy!"
"This is …
"Yuanying and the demon emperor!"
Li Yao's every nerve ending was dancing crazily, not out of fear, but out of excitement.
Even experts such as Jin Dan and demon kings could not release such powerful telepathic thoughts. They must be Yuanying and the demon emperor, the best warriors of the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Blood Demon Sector!
In the sky, the battle between Yuanying and the demon emperor had already begun!
From the two enormous swirls … Hundreds of colorful trajectories were shot out, splitting the sky into pieces as they blasted toward each other.
Soundless and unhurried. They were like thousands of colorful caterpillars wriggling slowly in the sky.
But Li Yao knew that the Yuanying and the demon emperor were at the opposite end of the sky. They were hundreds of kilometers away from each other.
The 'caterpillars' that seemed to be wriggling slowly were actually the violent waves caused by their hundreds of attacks breaking the speed of sound and tearing the air apart.
Several seconds later … Almost a thousand 'caterpillars' collided brutally with the sky as a curtain, bursting out dazzling light balls one after another.
After every light ball perished, a giant hole seemed to have been poked in the sky, revealing the brilliant stars.
It was not until the thousands of holes congregated the stars that Li Yao heard the sound of the air being torn apart.
The sound of the light balls exploding came one after another.
The whole world was shaking.
Bullet shells, fragments of flying swords, remains of demon beasts, bricks, rubble, rebars … Everything was bouncing up and dancing crazily in the sky along with the continuous explosions.
Li Yao opened his mouth wide to avoid the sonic booms from hurting his internal organs.
His eyes were filled with passion as he looked at the sky. The flames in his eyes seemed to be burning a hole in the sky.
"Is this the strength of the Yuanying? So powerful!
"When will I be able to reach the Nascent Soul stage and possess such power?"
Li Yao gritted his teeth. Behind the flames in his eyes, there was a hint of confusion.
Yuanying and the demon emperor were like two mad elephants crashing into each other.
And he was just a mouse under the feet of the elephants.
Such a feeling made him unwilling and impulsive.
Encouraged by the appearance of the Yuanying and the demon emperor, all the demons and human beings on the battlefield went crazy.
Explosions, screams, and roars of demon beasts were ten times louder than before. The entire Red Lotus City was blooming in the flames of death.
An endless tide of beasts appeared in Li Yao's sight.
Stimulated by the demonic aura of the demon emperor, the mediocre demon beasts became extremely crazy. Their eyes were bloodshot, and their skin was cracking, revealing their expanding flesh. Many of the insect-type demon beasts even had dense thorns growing out of their shells.
If Li Yao were not injured, he wouldn't care about these mediocre demon beasts at all.
But right now, he was heavily wounded. He had lost almost half of his blood. Faced with the overwhelming tide of beasts, his eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
He was about to drive the Black Wing Sword away, when a cloud of silver mist covered the sky above his head. A palm more than ten meters long extended out of the silver mist and grabbed at him.
"Ghost Face Silver Mosquito!"
Li Yao's face changed greatly.
He had encountered such a demon beast on the crystal train heading north to the Grand Desolate Plateau. Seven Cultivators had been sacrificed to deal with it.
A Ghost Face Silver Mosquito. It was just a mediocre, weak demon beast.
But when thousands of Ghost Face Silver Mosquito gathered together, it could develop a certain level of intelligence through telepathy and become a great demon beast!
"Kill!"
Li Yao's eyes bulged. The moment the giant palm pressed down, a dazzling saber aura flashed and chopped the giant palm into halves. Then, the crystal railguns on his shoulder exploded nonstop, blowing the Ghost Face Silver Mosquitoes that made up the giant palm into smithereens.
But the Ghost Face Silver Mosquito was endless. It condensed into eight gloomy, ferocious ghost claws in the sky. They blocked all of Li Yao's escape routes.
The overwhelming tide of beasts also arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.
"Come on!"
The Wind Slasher Battle Saber crackled. Dozens of blue electric arcs were shot seven to eight meters away before they entangled with each other and formed a seven to eight meter long lightning saber. Electric arcs flickered and tornadoes swirled around it.
For a moment, Li Yao experienced the pleasure that Guan Xiong had felt when he was facing the endless beast tide and charged forward in a one-man army.
It was indeed... exhilarating!
"Even if I don't have the capability of Yuanying, I can still do it. I will unleash the most dazzling brilliance, too!
"You want to kill me? Then let's see how many lives you have! "
Li Yao burst into laughter. He clenched his battle saber so hard that the handle was almost crushed. Every rune array on the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit was activated to the maximum.
He raised his battle saber high. He was about to fight to the death.
But a deafening explosion burst out behind him. The beast tide in front of him seemed to have been swallowed by an invisible giant beast. Almost ten gaps appeared in the beast tide, making it full of holes.
In the sky, the ghost claw made of the Ghost Face Silver Mosquito began to burn furiously, too. With a squeaking sound, it then exploded with a crackling sound.
Li Yao blinked. He didn't need to look back. His crystal camera had captured the picture behind him clearly.
The first thing that caught his eyes was a Rising Dragon of the Nine Stars flag. Although it had been riddled with holes due to the corrosion of acid and venomous fog, it was still flying high in the wind like an inextinguishable flame.
Then, countless soldiers of the Union Army, wearing black combat suits and holding chainswords and storm bolters, surged close like a black tide under the cover of crystal tanks.
The veteran who was responsible for the Taiyi Lightning Railgun was grinning at Li Yao from a crystal tank, holding two storm bolters in his hands. His white teeth were shining in the smoke.
Mediocre demon beasts could form an overwhelming beast tide and swallow Cultivators such as Li Yao.
Ordinary human beings who didn't know what spiritual roots were could also form an invincible iron tide with their passion, courage, and powerful weapons!
The picture struck Li Yao's heart like a lightning.
The black tide made of thousands of ordinary people seemed to be bursting out a strength that was even more shocking than the Yuanying in the sky.
Li Yao suddenly had a lightning-like epiphany.
He was a Cultivator with immense spiritual energy under his control. But he needed the help of thousands of ordinary people in order to compete with the endless beast tide.
However strong the Yuanying Cultivators in the sky were, without the help of thousands of ordinary Cultivators such as himself, they wouldn't be able to change the outcome of the battle on their own, would they?
Ordinary people, ordinary Cultivators such as himself, Yuanying experts … Only when everybody burned themselves to their limits and gathered together could the brilliance of the civilization of mankind be triggered.
"Countless compatriots who are stronger and weaker than me are fighting side by side with me.
"I need them, and they need me, too.
"We … are not alone!"
The epiphany made scorching strength surge out of Li Yao's veins that were almost dry again.
Golden brilliance mixed with blood flowed out of the gaps of his armor and interweaved into sharp wings. Li Yao led the charge into the beast tide and slaughtered everything in his way.
Behind him, the black wave covered the sky and the earth. It roared and crushed the beast tide that was beginning to collapse! (To be continued.)
