A few hours later, Shen Lang flew above the North Pole.
After more than 30 years, he was finally here again. This place had changed drastically. Even though it was Eternal Night, Shen Lang could still see it clearly.
First of all, the beautiful aurora was gone.
Basically, if a planet lost its aurora, it represented the death of its vitality. Of course, strictly speaking, this planet wasn't completely dead. It should still be filled with aurora, but the Hell Crystals were too terrifying. They even devoured the solar storm.
Now, there were no glaciers or snow in the North Pole. There were only endless Hell Crystals.
Of course, it was still very cold, but it wasn't like 30 years ago, where it was negative 200 degrees Celsius. Instead, it was less than negative 100 degrees Celsius.
Jiang Li had transformed this place into an alien planet. Everything had changed.
How many Hell Crystals were there? It was an astronomical number. More than a few million square kilometers of land was covered in it, and it extended endlessly deep underground.
Not only was there no ice and snow in the North Pole, but there was also no underground movement or magma. It was all strange Hell Crystals.
This reminded Shen Lang of a magical planet that was completely made of diamonds. The entire planet was an incomparably huge diamond.
A few million square kilometers of the North Pole was completely flat like the surface of the sea. There weren't even any ups and downs.
This astronomical number of Hell Crystals was Jiang Li's energy source. It was the result of him devouring for countless years. In this place, he was like a god. He could move mountains and fill seas. He could turn the world upside down. He was extremely powerful.
Then, how many Hell Crystals could Shen Lang's 500 hydrogen bombs melt?
About one in a million or one in ten million.
Shen Lang had long since calculated that it was impossible to rely on hydrogen bombs to completely destroy Jiang Li's Hell Crystal and achieve his goal of killing him.
Even if the Great Qian Empire produced 100 or 1,000 hydrogen bombs a day, it wouldn't be enough.
However, it was enough to create an energy vacuum.
"Your Majesty Shen Lang, my palace is in the center of the North Pole," Jiang Li said slowly.
Shen Lang continued to head north.
He saw Jiang Li's North Pole Saint Capital.
The so-called Saint Capital only had one main hall.
But just one hall was bigger than the entire city.
Shen Lang didn't expect that a simple size could produce such a shocking impact.
How big was Jiang Li's Arctic Holy Temple?
This was something that could not be seen in any movies. The height of the Holy Temple was higher than any mountain in the world, and its area was larger than a city.
Of course, this had nothing to do with the building, because it was completely made of Hell Crystals.
Not to mention the fact that humans were smaller than ants after entering the temple, Shen Yilong was already big enough. He could cover the sky above the city, and his stomach had swallowed 500 hydrogen bombs.
But after flying into this hall, even the giant dragon seemed insignificant.
There was only one door in this magnificent hall. When Shen Yilong flew in, he was slightly shocked.
It had never seen such a huge door before. It was as if it was about to enter another world.
After flying into the North Pole Temple.
Anyone who looked down at it would feel their blood run cold and suffer from trypophobia.
This was because the hall was densely packed with Ancient Puppet Warriors.
This group of people had originally been turned into fossils, and now they looked like crystals. In short, they were no longer made of flesh and blood.
Everyone's body was almost transparent, and it looked very strange.
How many ancient puppet warriors were there in the hall?
He didn't know, and it was almost impossible to calculate.
Because thousands of square kilometers of land were filled with secret manuals, just like ants.
After coming to this world, Shen Lang had definitely seen a lot of things, but he had never seen so many armies. It made his scalp go numb. It was much more than the total number of armies that Shen Lang had seen.
Just how many ancient humans had the deranged Jiang Xie turned into fossils? The hundreds of thousands of people that Shen Lang had seen in the Primordial Square were like a drop in the ocean.
Seeing Shen Lang appear on the dragon, the astronomical number of ancient puppet warriors raised their heads in unison and stared at Shen Lang. It felt too strange to be stared at by the eyes of tens of millions of dead people.
And the Darkness Emperor, Jiang Li, was right in the middle of the hall. He sat on the Throne of Darkness, his whole body covered in dark armor. His body was as huge as a mountain.
This was not an adjective, nor was it a metaphor. His body was really like a mountain, not any smaller than the size of a giant dragon.
This North Pole Temple was too huge for others, but for Jiang Li, it was just right.
And his Throne of Darkness was just right for him.
Was this how he had spent the past 30 years? Sitting quietly on the Throne of Darkness, surrounded by tens of millions of ancient puppet warriors? Not moving at all?
"Yes, he sat like this for more than 30 years," Jiang Li said slowly. Jiang Li slowly said, "Also, when you saw how big I became, like a mountain, it wasn't because I wanted to show off, but because it was necessary."
Jiang Li was very busy, and he couldn't stop for a second. This was because the Queen of Darkness had smashed a small hole in the center of the North Pole's hell crystal, and it had to be plugged at all times.
More importantly, the Jiang Empire had created 200 domed cities, and countless hell needles pierced into the Earth's core to devour life energy. This was not only to maintain the survival of these domed cities, but also to provide energy to the North Pole.
Jiang Li had to calculate how much energy to distribute to these domed cities and how much energy to devour in the North Pole.
He also had to upgrade the hell crystal, conduct the Ultimate Dragon Enlightenment test, and build an unprecedented spaceship to fly to Earth.
Jiang Li had to complete all these things alone, so he naturally couldn't leave the North Pole.
Although he was the true Darkness Emperor of this world and controlled the power of the entire planet, he didn't have any power to speak of.
Moreover, to him, power was just a low-level emotion.
Shen Lang rode the giant dragon and slowly flew in front of Jiang Li.
Jiang Li's body was simply too huge. Shen Lang couldn't even see Jiang Li's feet clearly from where he stood, let alone his face.
"You actually didn't bring my body with you?" Jiang Li said. "Don't you think that's your trump card to defeat me? Is that my weakness? "
Shen Lang shrugged and didn't say anything.
"Fortunately, you didn't bring it. Otherwise, there would be no suspense in this battle." Jiang Li slowly said, "You brought my weakness, which proves that you want to take advantage of the situation, which proves that you have placed yourself on the weak side. In this battle, the mentality of the weak is absolutely not good. "
Shen Lang still didn't say anything.
After a while, Shen Lang said, "Your Majesty Jiang Li, where is your spaceship? Where is the unprecedented spaceship you want to build? "
Jiang Li replied, "It's underground."
Then, the two of them fell into silence.
"Shen Lang, you have contributed," Jiang Li said. Jiang Li said, "Your Furious Capital is not bad. Although I'm not interested in the artistic atmosphere of that city, the nuclear energy core is not bad, and the energy distribution system is especially good. Your son, Gregory, is very outstanding."
Shen Lang said, "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."
Jiang Li said, "Therefore, if you die after this battle, your family and children will all live on. Your family and children will survive. In the future, there will be a place for every one of them on my spaceship. Even those who are related to you will have a place. "
"Thank you." Shen Lang said, "I have already said that if I lose, this world will have nothing to do with me. Everything will be handled by Your Majesty Jiang Li."
"It's good that you have this mentality." Jiang Li said, "You should now truly understand the truth that only one of us can live. This is fate that was decided a long time ago … "
"I hate this word." Shen Lang said, "Should I say, my fate is decided by me and not by the heavens?"
Jiang Li was silent and didn't respond to this sentence.
After a while, he slowly said, "Shen Lang, many times, you think that you have fought against fate and even changed fate. However, you don't know that this is a part of fate."
This time, it was Shen Lang's turn to be silent. Was this the word 'sad'?
"Then shall we start the battle now?" Jiang Li said.
"Alright!"
What would the final battle between Shen Lang and Jiang Li be like?
It was like playing chess because every step was clear. What should be done in the first step and what should be done in the second step.
Regarding this battle, Shen Lang had simulated it a million times in his soul. He lost every single time. He didn't win even once.
Of course, the only time he could win, Shen Lang didn't go through the simulation.
Because it couldn't be simulated or replicated.
It was as if this was a gift from fate and there was only one chance.
This was the only real battle that would decide life and death.
Of course, Shen Lang originally thought that Jiang Li's energy was ten thousand times or even a million times more than his. However, from the looks of it, the difference was much greater.
The first step was to release 500 hydrogen bombs and melt all the Hell Crystals within a few thousand square kilometers. This would create an energy vacuum so that Jiang Li wouldn't be able to devour energy and use his divine power.
The second step was to fight Jiang Li in a life and death battle with Shen Lang and the giant dragon.
The third step was unknown!
It was this unknown third step that would truly determine the life and death of Shen Lang and Jiang Li.
Next, as long as Shen Yilong said "Start", he would start detonating the hydrogen bombs. 500 hydrogen bombs. He would create an energy vacuum in the north pole for 0.5 seconds.
As long as Shen Lang said "Start" in his heart!
"Your Majesty Shen Lang," Jiang Li said. Jiang Li said, "A few years ago, you detonated a hydrogen bomb. Its power was so great that it shocked me. Now, you actually brought 500 hydrogen bombs and want to create an energy vacuum so that I won't be able to devour the energy of this planet and the countless Hell Crystals. You want me to lose my inexhaustible divine power, right? "
Uh! Yes.
This move was too obvious.
Before Shen Lang could make a move, Jiang Li had already seen through him.
Was this the so-called 'know thyself, know thy enemy, and win every battle'?
What should he do? Since he had been seen through, shouldn't he detonate the 500 hydrogen bombs?
Jiang Li said, "Your Majesty Shen Lang, once you detonate the 500 hydrogen bombs, you can indeed create an energy vacuum. This will cause me to lose my connection with the Hell Crystals for 0.3 seconds and lose my divine power. I will then have to rely on my own strength to fight you."
Shen Lang said, "So?"
Jiang Li said, "So, let's assume that the first step is successful! Let's assume that you have detonated 500 hydrogen bombs to isolate my energy. Originally, your 500 hydrogen bombs can create an energy vacuum for 0.3 seconds. But now, let's assume that your energy vacuum is permanent. So, let's skip the first step and move on to the second step. "
Huh?!
Shen Lang was shocked once again.
Was … was this a true gentleman's battle?
There wasn't even a need for actual combat? Just a simulation?
"So, don't detonate your 500 hydrogen bombs. I will cut off my connection with the Hell Crystals and take the initiative to cut off all my divine power. I will only rely on my own strength. Is this fair?" Jiang Li said, "This way, your 500 hydrogen bombs won't be wasted. My Hell Crystals won't be wasted either."
Fair? It wasn't just fair. It was the most advantageous situation for Shen Lang.
Shen Lang detonated the hydrogen bombs in order to cut off the energy connection between Jiang Li and the Hell Crystals, causing him to lose his endless divine power. It had only been less than half a second.
Now, he had taken the initiative to cut it off.
"Is this okay?" Jiang Li asked.
"Yes!" Shen Lang said.
Jiang Li's body left the Throne of Darkness, completely cutting off the energy connection between this planet and the Hell Crystals.
Then, Shen Lang saw that there was a tiny hole in the Throne of Darkness that was continuously leaking energy.
Jiang Li shrugged helplessly at Shen Lang and said, "This is also the reason why I can't move a single step for 30 years. It's also the reason why my body is getting bigger and bigger. I can't just waste this energy."
For a completely cold and emotionless person to say this, it was really dark humor.
"Alright, then let's move on to the second step of the battle." Jiang Li said, "After cutting off the energy connection between me and the Hell Crystals, you should merge with your dragon and attack me, right?"
Shen Lang nodded and said, "Yes!"
Jiang Li said, "Your Majesty Shen Lang, you should be able to figure it out. You have a dragon, and I have a dragon. It's the descendant of the Jiang and Ji dragons. It completely combines the strengths of the two dragons. Not only does it have the ability to control nuclear fission, but it also controls the energy of the Hell Crystals. "
Shen Lang was stunned. Nuclear fission and the Hell Crystals were two energies that completely countered each other.
Grigory used this principle to create an extremely stable nuclear power device.
Now, Jiang Li's dragon had actually merged these two energies into one. What kind of energy was this?
Jiang Li said, "You're right. Nuclear fission and the Hell Crystals countered each other. Therefore, when this dragon hatched, it was in a state of zero. It was so weak that it was almost non-existent. Then, you should be able to guess what I did to it. "
Shen Lang said, "In the Advanced Realm of Dragon Comprehension, I carried out Nirvana Rebirth on your new dragon's soul."
Jiang Li said, "Yes, this is my path of upgrading the Hell Crystals. In fact, even if you had come a few months later, your hydrogen bomb wouldn't have been able to melt my Hell Crystals. Instead, all the energy from the hydrogen bomb's explosion would have been devoured by the Hell Crystals after Nirvana Rebirth. At that time, the Hell Crystals would be almost indestructible. “
After saying that, Jiang Li waved his hand lightly.
Then, a huge dragon appeared in the air above the hall.
It didn't suddenly appear. It had always been there. It was just that Shen Lang hadn't noticed its existence.
This … was just too awesome.
Shen Lang was really shocked!
Not only did Jiang Li's new dragon turn invisible, but it also turned invisible with energy. Shen Lang and Shen Yilong actually didn't notice its existence.
Then, the dragon's gaze focused and swept toward Shen Lang and Shen Yilong.
Its body began to change color, from gold to blue, and finally completely colorless. Finally, it completely disappeared from sight. Not only did it disappear from sight, but it also disappeared from energy vision.
Shen Lang only needed one look to know that Jiang Li's new dragon was much stronger than Shen Yilong. Even though it was Shen Yilong's child.
Jiang Li's new dragon had devoured the entire Primordial Dragon Pool and countless Hell Crystals.
Jiang Li said, "Although there are rich uranium ores, most of the uranium is evenly distributed on this planet. Over the years, my new dragon has probably devoured millions of tons of uranium and an equivalent amount of Hell Crystals. Therefore, this dragon of mine should be much, much stronger than yours. "
Shen Yilong didn't say anything. He only looked in the direction of the new dragon. That was his son.
Jiang Li said, "Your Majesty Shen Lang, my dragon is far stronger than your dragon. Furthermore, it has also undergone a Nirvana Rebirth within the Dragon's Comprehension. Its loyalty to me is exactly the same as your dragon's loyalty to you, right?"
Shen Lang said, "Yes."
Jiang Li said, "The strength of these two dragons is hard to come by. We shouldn't waste it. Therefore, why don't we skip the second step of the decisive battle? "
Huh?!
Shen Lang knew that this battle would be very, very different.
But it was also very different.
This wasn't just a battle between gentlemen. It was practically a real battle on paper.
It was like a game of chess or a tabletop game.
There wasn't even a need for a real battle.
"Okay." Shen Lang said, "Let's skip the second step as well."
He sighed in his heart. It was enough for him and Jiang Li to put on a show of father and son. He didn't want Shen Yilong and his child to do the same.
Jiang Li said, "Then let's go straight to the third step. The pure you and the pure me will have the ultimate battle?"
Shen Lang: "Okay!"
Jiang Li said, "Of course, this is still not fair. This is the North Pole, my home field. Therefore, we need to find a true neutral land. "
Shen Lang asked, "Where to?"
Jiang Li pointed at the sky. "How about there?"
Shen Lang looked over.
The moon? It was actually the moon?
That place was completely far away from Earth and the Hell Crystals. It was indeed fair enough.
Moreover, the battle on the moon was also very epic, wasn't it?
"Okay, this place is not bad!" Shen Lang said, "Your Majesty Jiang Li, please!"
Jiang Li said, "Your Majesty Shen Lang, please!"
Then, the two of them rode the giant dragons and flew out of the North Pole Temple. Their speed became faster and faster.
Finally, they completely broke away from the planet's gravity and flew towards the moon.
Of course, could it be that Jiang Li couldn't fly to the moon with his own strength? Of course not. Both of them were emperors. Of course, they had to fly on their dragons.
The distance between this world and the moon was more than 500,000 kilometers.
A few days and nights later!
The two of them rode two dragons and approached the moon.
At this time, Yaoyao was originally painting. It was still an ordinary family dinner.
This was a painting that couldn't be finished.
Because Yaoyao was painting in the painting. There was a painting in the painting. It was endless.
Yaoyao would continue painting until her father came back.
In the end, she was already painting on a piece of paper that wasn't even a square centimeter in size. Moreover, it was still an ordinary family dinner.
While she was painting, she suddenly ran out of the room and came to the balcony, looking at the moon.
Yaoyao and her father had a spiritual resonance.
Then, she kept standing on the balcony and looked up at the moon.
Shen Mi also ran out and said, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Yaoyao pointed at the moon in the sky and said, "Father."
… …
The moon in this world was very similar to the moon on Earth.
One side was full of craters and craters, while the other side was very flat. However, the flat side was completely facing away from the world and couldn't be seen.
The two of them landed on the surface of the moon. There were craters and craters everywhere.
"You can go back!" Jiang Li waved his hand at his new dragon and said, "Come back in half a month. At that time, only one of us can live. Between me and His Majesty Shen Lang, only one can live. No matter who survives, he will be your master. "
Jiang Li's new dragon revealed its body again. It shone with golden light and wailed at Jiang Li.
"Go back." Shen Lang said to Shen Yilong, "Come back in half a month. At that time, between me and His Majesty Jiang Li, only one of us can survive. No matter who the one who survives is, he will still be your master."
Shen Yilong rubbed his huge head against Shen Lang's palm.
"Let's go, let's go!"
The two giant dragons reluctantly left the moon and flew towards the world.
Not long after, the two dragons disappeared from Shen Lang and Jiang Li's vision. On the lonely moon, only Shen Lang and Jiang Li were left.
The two of them stood there quietly. One was like a mountain, and the other was normal.
Shen Lang looked at this planet. This was the first time he saw the world. This was considered the treatment of an astronaut. On Earth, only Armstrong and a few other people had seen Earth from the moon.
Although this world wasn't Earth, it was very similar to Earth. It was just that it was much bigger.
The diameter of this planet was about 30% bigger than Earth.
However, the size of the moon was about the same as Earth's moon.
"So beautiful …" Shen Lang said, "The blue planet is so beautiful. It's filled with endless vitality."
Jiang Li said, "It's just a cradle. Most of the planets in the universe aren't like this. Choosing such a rare planet represents the fragility of life and the fragility of civilization. The planet we are standing on is the normal state of the universe. "
Alright, you're right.
99.9999% of the planets in the universe are lifeless. If it's rocks, gas, strange metals, or even diamonds.
However, there are countless planets like Earth that are filled with life and liquid water.
"How to survive on the planet we are standing on is the attitude a civilization needs." Jiang Li said, "Everything we see is a gift from the sun. It can give us, but it can also take it back. Only by defeating the sun can we stand at the peak of civilization. "
Shen Lang didn't refute.
What he wanted to say, Jiang Li already knew clearly.
In order to defeat the sun, one must first understand the sun, imitate the sun, and finally defeat it.
There was no longer any meaning in saying all this now.
Between Shen Lang and Jiang Li, only one of them could live. This was fate.
Jiang Li said, "Your Majesty Shen Lang, you can watch as long as you want within half a month. When you think you're done, we'll start. "
Shen Lang said, "I'm done."
"We'll go to the dark side of the moon?" Jiang Li said, "It's best not to let anyone see our final battle."
"Alright!" Shen Lang said.
A few hours later, Shen Lang and Jiang Li arrived at the dark side of the moon. In a place where no one could see, they would have their final battle.
Jiang Li said, "Your Majesty Shen Lang, let's begin. You first!"
… …
