The mental devil sniffed and raised its chin.
Li Yao asked in a hurry, "Then, what are you trying to do right now?"
"Nothing," the mental devil said lazily.
The mental devil said lazily, "However, after the discussion with you just now, I suddenly feel that you are very correct and reasonable. You have cleared my head and enlightened me! It's true that killing cannot solve any problem. Human beings and demons are perhaps brothers of the same origin. They should live in peace. How can they attack each other?
"Therefore, now that so many 'brothers' are running to you enthusiastically, why don't you explain the truth of 'peaceful coexistence' to them with your silver tongue?"
Before Li Yao had the chance to curse, he heard a swooshing sound. A scorching ray of light brushed past his head and broke a tree in front of him that was as thick as a couple of people hugging it into pieces, burning it into ashes.
The stink of burnt flesh immediately spread out from the top of Li Yao's head.
More than ten Eight-Armed Demonic Apes were grinning hideously. They were only dozens of meters away from him.
Every Eight-Armed Demonic Ape, other than the four extremely long arms extending below their shoulder blades, also had two slightly short, deformed arms on their back. Their joints could turn freely, making them extremely agile.
Most of the time, they were moving among the branches at a high speed with their feet, the short limbs on their back, and their long tails.
The four arms that were free carried a lot of heavy magical equipment. One Eight-Armed Demonic Ape could unleash unparalleled firepower. When more than ten Eight-Armed Demonic Apes opened fire at the same time, an impenetrable net of fire swept across the forest and burnt the land.
If there were only the Eight-Armed Demonic Apes, it would not have been difficult to deal with them. But behind the Eight-Armed Demonic Apes were the Blood Moon Wolf Raiders. Besides, humming noises and the cracking noises of the Mirage Falcons were echoing in the sky.
Thousands of demons were more than enough to kill Li Yao if they dragged on.
Li Yao spat and turned around to run.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Crimson feathers enshrouded in demonic energy exploded below his feet one after another. The soil immediately turned into magma. The magma splashed on his body and burned bloody holes. He grimaced in pain, his veins bulging out.
"Therefore …"
The mental devil said with a smile. "Occasionally, killing is still necessary. It can solve some small problems, right? And I was mean and evil. The brutal Blood Devil has a little bit of use, right? "
Li Yao: "…"
The mental devil said, "I'll take your silence as a yes."
Li Yao: "…"
The mental devil chuckled and stretched itself. "Very good. We've finally reached the most basic consensus. Then, what's next?"
Deep inside Li Yao's brain, the mental devil suddenly expanded. The bloody aura turned his brain into an ocean of blood. Even his left eye twitched abruptly. His pupil was like a chrysanthemum that bloomed in all directions. Strands of blood rippled out from the depths of his eye and revolved ceaselessly, causing his left eye to transform into a blood red vortex!
Li Yao's fleeing body came to an abrupt stop. His left arm was straightened, and cracking noises echoed deep inside his bones. Scarlet air that seemed to be tangible spurted out of his every pore, as if weird incense were dancing around him!
Under the cover of the bloody air, his skin was in a primitive, bright gold color. A layer of bright silver liquids was secreted from his pores, which soon solidified into a glamorous armor. The cells on his elbow proliferated and ossified crazily, turning into a bone blade that rose high like a shark's fin. His five fingers were also covered in the delicate, bright silver bone armor. Their hardness and defense ability were significantly improved, but their agility was not reduced at all. Sharp claws and teeth grew out of the front end of his fingers like those of a dinosaur or a lion. A moment later, an ear-splitting sound echoed.
A tingling sensation came from the center of his palm. Then, a semicircular crystal that looked like a red crystal protruded from the center of his palm. Strands of crimson blood patterns swam merrily inside the crystal like fish.
"Huh?"
Li Yao could not help but shudder and moan in pleasure, as if a volcano that had hibernated for billions of years inside his body had just woken up and unleashed the most violent magma!
The strengthening of his body was already so satisfying. The enhancement of his senses and his brain made him feel that he had been reborn!
Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!
In a moment, his visual, auditory, and olfactory senses were refreshed a thousand times. All kinds of spectra, soundwaves, and particles were mixed together.
Through the rustling of the leaves, the faintly discernible aura coming from the other party, and the changes of light and shadow in the depths of the forest, countless pieces of information collided fiercely in his brain, shattering into fine golden scales and reconstructing a virtual battlefield.
Everything in the virtual battlefield was under Li Yao's control. He knew the position and attack routes of every enemy clearly. He even analyzed the enemy's capability by observing their movement and breathing frequency.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
The virtual battlefield was divided from one to two, from two to four, eight, sixteen, thirty-two, sixty-four.
Sixty-four virtual battlefields were running at the same time, simulating the changes of the battle after he adopted sixty-four different tactics precisely and selecting the best one from them.
"My computational ability has been significantly improved again!"
Holding back the excruciating pain in his brain, Li Yao was both surprised and delighted.
After reaching the superlative height of Jin Dan, his computational ability had not improved for a long time. He had thought that it was the limit of the Core Formation Stage. He did not expect that he would break through the barrier at this moment!
After using one second to sense his brain cells, he immediately understood that the reason why his computing power had soared was because his brain cells had undergone earth-shattering changes!
Brain cells were one of the most mysterious cells in the human body. The biggest feature of them was that they could not be divided or duplicated.
Most of the cells in the human body, such as the bones, the liver, and the muscle cells, could divide and multiply nonstop. The so-called training was to stimulate the cells with spiritual energy so that they could divide and multiply nonstop. The weak old cells would wither, and the strong new cells would be born. The cycle would gradually grow stronger!
But the brain cells could not be divided or multiplied!
When an ordinary person was born, the number of brain cells was determined. It was around 1.4 billion, and it would continue to decrease after that.
From the age of twenty, an adult's brain cells would decrease by a hundred thousand every day until they died!
If their parents were both Cultivators with powerful bloodlines, they might have more brain cells when they were born. But correspondingly, after their spiritual root was awakened and they embarked on the path of Cultivation, they would burn their soul easily. The consumption of their brain cells would be multiple times higher than that of ordinary people, too.
It was also the biggest factor that limited the lifespan of a Cultivator.
It was true that a Cultivator could train their body to be as tough as iron, immune to fire and water, and resistant to most diseases.
Some of the stronger Cultivators were even able to suppress the cancer cells with their own strength!
However, even if a Cultivator never fought and paid special attention to their health and lived to three hundred years old, their body would be as strong as a young man's, but the withering of their brain cells was irreversible.
In the end, their brain cells would be exhausted, and they would enter the state of 'brain death' with an immaculate body!
But right now, Li Yao discovered that, after part of his brain cells activated the 'primeval form' through the 'atavism', they boasted a weak ability to divide and multiply.
While the original brain cells were withering, new brain cells were being generated incessantly, too!
Li Yao was overjoyed by the discovery!
"This is the strongest form that I can produce right now!"
The mental devil's voice was full of pride and expectation. "The Blood Stripe Virus' enhancement of living creatures is just an ignorant instinct. There is no theory or system at all. Therefore, the training arts of the demon race are indeed of great help to us!
"With some of the powerful gene maps provided by Jin Xinyue, I have activated 1,354 dormant gene segments, allowing you to display the features of seventeen primeval beasts!
"Right now, you are ten times stronger than Yan Xibei was years ago!
"Only a few elementary gene maps are enough to activate such terrifying combat ability. If we get the more mysterious gene maps from the Pantheon of Demons, we will certainly be able to produce the strongest apocalyptic body in history. Haha. Hahahahaha!"
"Can you not laugh so brutally?" Li Yao asked.
"Not a problem."
The mental devil regained its gentleness immediately. "I can even retract such a 'brutal' and 'evil' force so that your body will not be 'corrupted' so that you can talk to your demon brothers about the noble principles of 'peaceful coexistence'. What do you think?"
"Just pretend that I didn't say anything," Li Yao said.
"Shua!"
His legs paused on the branch neither too lightly nor too heavily. The thick, tensile branch threw Li Yao at the Eight Arms Demon Ape like a spring.
The Eight Arms Demon Ape did not expect that Li Yao would charge at him. It was slightly dazed. Then, waving its bone blades and chainswords, it roared and lunged at Li Yao.
After his computational ability reached a new limit, Li Yao felt that he was in a pool of thick glue. Time went by very slowly. The ferocious, roaring Eight Arms Demon Ape had all turned into extremely slow sloths.
Li Yao dashed among the bullets, rays, acids, and venoms that he shot out unhurriedly. The edges of the blades and the tips of the swords seemed to have become his springboards and stairs. He danced on the tips of the blades and the bullets as fast as lightning. The blades and the barrels that were touched by his toes slightly changed their direction.
Therefore, a moment later, the blades of the Eight Arms Demon Ape slashed into the bodies of its companions, and the bullets and venoms blew up the heads of its companions one after another. Blood splashed everywhere, as if a bloody miasma was rising in the forest!
"Awoo!"
Before the body of the Eight Arms Demon Ape hit the ground, dozens of streaks of brightness dashed out. While it was still in midair, its body expanded nonstop. The white hair all over its body was torn apart, revealing stripes that looked like bloody crescent moons!
The Bloody Moon Wolf Knight in the strongest form was more like a hybrid of a wolf and a bear than a wolf. It was almost four meters tall when it stood upright, and its eyes were like two orange lanterns as it stared at Li Yao! (To be continued.)
