Li Yao felt that a dark gold bubble deep inside his brain had been pierced through. Infinite information was spurting out, only to turn into bright gold ash in the blink of an eye and vanish like a burning butterfly.
It was as if he was in a hazy fog. Occasionally, he would touch some vague things, but they all slipped through his fingers like quicksand.
His desperate roars turned into murmurs in the wind. The unforgettable memories turned into pieces of a dream. In a trance, Li Yao seemed to see himself floating in front of a blue planet and roaring in an inaudible voice, "I am not dead yet. The Vulture Plan has not failed yet! Even if I drift to the end of the universe, I will carry out the Vulture Plan to the end! "
His declaration was like a spell, a bolt of lightning, and a saber that tore apart the darkness and blood that were suppressing his head.
BOOM!
The garbage mountains exploded abruptly. The remnants of the magical equipment were burning furiously and smashed into the ground. The scavengers who had been ferocious a moment ago were all shrieking miserably.
Li Yao slowly floated up and stood in midair. He observed everything coldly, with a scornful smile on his lips.
Although he did not know what the Vulture Plan meant exactly, the words had completely activated his soul and made him realize that this was an illusionary world.
Fake. Everything is fake. This is not the real world but a maze of my memories!
My soul has been blasted by the star child's soul and mired in this maze of chaos!
"Break for me!"
Li Yao bellowed and waved his right hand. The thousands of garbage mountains around all slowly floated up under the control of a weird force. They flew to a height of thousands of meters before they exploded like thousands of bombs!
The debris that looked like shooting stars riddled the gray dome of the world with holes, revealing the vague brightness beyond the sky.
The entire world was shaking violently. The sky was like a broken Coloured Glaze that was falling apart. The earth was collapsing, and black smoke was surging out. Countless people turned into streaks of blood-red light and disappeared without a trace!
When the sky completely collapsed, Li Yao turned into a golden ray of light and soared into the sky, breaking out of the cocoon!
"Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz!"
It was as if there was a huge golden bell ringing in the depths of his brain. Li Yao felt that he had passed through a very, very long milky white corridor and then fallen into a bottomless abyss. Finally, after a burst of uncontrollable trembling, his soul floated out of his sea of consciousness and returned to his body!
"This is …"
Li Yao found himself immersed in a warm medicinal liquid, surrounded by countless doctors in white robes.
Behind the crowd, Wu Mayan and Xie Anan were standing on their tiptoes and looking at him anxiously.
Li Yao smiled. A large amount of bubbles emerged from the medical potion as he thought of something. He sent a message to Wu Mayan and Xie Anan.
"I'm back!"
…
An hour later, after a series of physical examinations, Li Yao chatted with his two disciples in the recovery room while warming up in twenty times the normal gravity.
"Master, that's unbelievable. I thought that you were awesome enough to beat up Yan Xibei and Xiao Xuance in one go. Who knew that you had slain an unparalleled deadly demon from forty thousand years ago when you were still in the Building Foundation Stage?"
Wu Mayan grimaced and exclaimed in an exaggerated manner. "You're a legend among legends!"
Li Yao chuckled and blushed.
When he released his memory pieces in the star brain, he had foreseen that such a day would come.
Right now, although the star child and Xiao Xuance had been destroyed, the shadow of the Imperium of True Human Beings was still looming over the Cultivators' heads. The Flying Star Sector and the Tian Yuan Realm should cooperate fully. Naturally, he had to be frank. There was no need for him to hide his identity anymore.
Wu Mayan continued. "Master, you've been in a coma for an entire year. But in the past three days, your brain waves have been particularly strong. Everybody had a feeling that you would wake up soon. However, the big shots such as Mo Xuan, Si Koulie, and Luoxingzi were all gathered on Spider Den to discuss a very important issue. They had no time to spare. So, they asked me to wait for you first.
"They also asked me to ask you to go to Spider Den immediately after you woke up and discuss the issue that concerns the fate of the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Flying Star Sector!"
Li Yao was refreshed. An issue that concerns the fate of the Flying Star Sector and the Heaven's Origin Sector?
It was needless to say that they must have confirmed the coordinates of the Tian Yuan Realm. Communication between the two Sectors was now possible!
Pondering for a moment, Li Yao said, "There's no need to hurry. I've been asleep for a year. Tell me what happened in the Flying Star Sector during the year first!"
Wu Mayan nodded and activated the light beam of his crystal processor.
Professor Mo Xuan and the rest of them had foreseen that Li Yao was about to wake up. They had prepared a telepathic thought that contained tremendous information and poured it into Li Yao's brain through light, shadow, and sound, allowing him to basically understand the changes in the Flying Star Sector over the past year.
First of all, after the battle of Heavenly Saints City, all the Grand Illusionary Soldiers had returned to the Cultivators. Naturally, the rebellion of the Immortal Cultivators had been dissolved.
In most of the space zones, the Cultivators had completely taken control of the situation. Only in the Spider Den Space Zone was the Immortal Cultivators and the space pirates still struggling.
The Cultivators uprooted the spies of the Imperium of True Human Beings and the Temple of Immortals in three months. Then, they marched toward the Spider Den Space Zone.
But the final battle went much smoother than anybody had expected.
Without Xiao Xuance and the star brain, the remaining Immortal Cultivators were leaderless and disorganized.
At the last moment, the Black King and Fengyu Zhong had a serious disagreement again.
Most importantly of all, the Immortal Cultivators had been fooled by the star child in the past and thought that they were the founders of the Imperium of True Human Beings. It was only because of such a belief that they were bold enough to fight the Cultivators head-on.
But right now, knowing that they were just chess pieces, many Immortal Cultivators' belief was shaken.
Before the Cultivators arrived on Spider Den, serious internal strife had already broken out between the Immortal Cultivators and the space pirates.
As a result, the Cultivators completely suppressed Spider Den in less than a month. The Black King was killed in the battle, and Fengyu Zhong was captured alive. Later, he was sentenced to death by the war tribunal made of all the victims and executed immediately.
The rebellion that had greatly damaged the Flying Star Sector affected the social structure of the Flying Star Sector deeply, too.
Since the spies of the Immortal Cultivators might be lurking in the six sects of Heavenly Saints City and the major sects, a temporary committee had been established after the battle of Heavenly Saints City. It was led by Si Koulie, Luoxingzi, and Mo Xuan and represented the interests of the six sects of Heavenly Saints City, the smaller sects, and Iron Plateau.
Of course, Professor Mo Xuan had two identities. After Li Yao fell into hibernation, he also represented the Cultivators from the Tian Yuan Realm.
Therefore, the temporary committee became the de facto highest decision-making body of the Flying Star Sector.
Their mission was, on one hand, to hunt down all the Immortal Cultivators who were on the run and restore order in the Flying Star Sector.
On the other hand, their mission was to collect all the intelligence about the Imperium of True Human Beings.
After Professor Mo Xuan and the other four star spirits completely took control of the star brain, they retrieved a lot of precious information from the data left by the star child, including part of the techniques from the Imperium of True Human Beings.
After breaking into the secret nests of the Immortal Cultivators one after another, a lot of techniques and magical equipment that did not belong to the Flying Star Sector or the Tian Yuan Realm were discovered, too. By preliminary estimation, the star child had manipulated the Immortal Cultivators to build them in secret for his future reign.
The magical equipment and techniques were of great benefit to the improvement of the Cultivation level of the Flying Star Sector and the Heaven's Origin Sector. Their value was immeasurable.
After further analysis of the star child's remaining data, the Cultivators received a lot of information about the social form of the Imperium of True Human Beings and the fate of the ordinary people in the Imperium, too.
They were sent to the harsh resource planets for mining, the experiment subjects for the new Cultivation arts of the Immortal Cultivators, or the slaves of the experts … The shocking pictures shocked all the Cultivators and raised the wrath of the entire Flying Star Sector.
"The Flying Star Sector cannot accept such a future. We will not become part of the Imperium of True Human Beings even if we are destroyed!"
"Fight the Immortal Cultivators to the end!"
After a lot of files were made public, the belief became the consensus of the entire society.
The communication between the Flying Star Sector and the Heaven's Origin Sector, which concerned Li Yao the most, made significant progress, too.
After gaining control of Spider Den, the Cultivators began a large-scale excavation of the underground fortress. Under the guidance of Lei Dalu and Bai Kaixin, they soon found the 'Star Prier's House', an ancient observatory from ten thousand years ago.
Professor Mo Xuan and the other star spirits were significantly improved after absorbing part of the computational ability of the star child. They repaired the super crystal processors in the Star Prier's House very soon and explored the space with the super crystal processors.
Before Wu Mayan returned to Heavenly Saints City, it was said that they had made significant discoveries.
On the six sects of Heavenly Saints City and the Star Fighters' Alliance's side, an enormous coalition fleet was being established, too. Many starships were being specially modified in order to perform super long-distance space jumps across Sectors.
Everything was being prepared in an orderly manner!
Li Yao saw the situation of Heavenly Saints City in the pictures.
The central area and the first space ring were the most seriously damaged areas in the great rebellion. A lot of buildings had collapsed. Several blocks had even been razed to the ground.
However, above the debris, a splendid, brand-new city was rising from the ground under the united efforts of the Cultivators and the ordinary people!
Li Yao noticed that everybody looked completely different from before. He could not tell what exactly had changed, but he felt that everybody was in high spirits. Even the eyes of the most common construction workers were filled with fire!
"The rebellion changed the Flying Star Sector completely," Wu Mayan said solemnly.
Wu Mayan said solemnly, "Although Xiao Xuance was unpardonable, he was right about one thing. In the past, the Flying Star Sector was indeed a mess. Most of the sects only wanted to live their own lives behind closed doors. They had lost the courage to explore the outside world and make great strides forward!
