Chapter 3144: Forced Link
“Li Yao, kill him!”
“Li Yao, hang in there!”
“Li Yao, I have pinned all my hopes on you. You are… a distraction!”
All the experts clenched their fists and bulged their eyes, as if they were trying to pull their soul out of their body and throw it into the light ball to help Li Yao.
Although they were divided into different sides and had different opinions about Li Yao, they had to admit that Li Yao was the last defense line for the self-proclaimed experts such as themselves. If one of their enemies could not defeat Li Yao even after Li Yao tried his best, n.o.body would be able to.
In the past, Li Yao had defeated enemies ten times stronger than himself in his… creative ways and his own style. It should be the same this time.
The core of the super body was inside Gu Wuxin’s body. As long as Gu Wuxin was destroyed, the overwhelming foam—the ocean of cells—would be frozen and withered, too. That was what was happening right now.
They could only wait, helplessly, uneasily, and almost desperately.
It was a pity that the enemy they were faced with this time was fundamentally different from all the previous ones.
The black spots were about to join together and wither the ocean of cells. Even the tentacles that extended to the sky were all broken and vaporized like broken gene strands. However, when the area of the black spots was about to break the threshold, they gradually slowed down and finally stopped.
The giant light ball that Li Yao had ignited with his life and soul was emitting weird blue colors. It gradually formed a transparent sh.e.l.l and was even shrinking slightly.
Experienced Cultivators all knew that it was the sign of the collapse and contraction of a large-scale magnetic field with high-energy reactions, which meant that Li Yao was already on the brink of death.
“Li Yao!”
Ding Lingdang screamed desperately. She was planning to charge at Gu Wuxin without caring about anything else with a mere crystal suit, only to be pushed down by several Cultivators from the federation and held back by them.
Riding the broken ‘crystal core’, Long Yangjun was on one of his knees, trying to raise his broken arms and condense new blast waves. But after multiple attempts, the Giant G.o.d Soldier’s elbows, shoulders, and waist exploded into enormous fireb.a.l.l.s, which eventually paralyzed him.
Boss Bai, Yan Liren, the boxing champion, Li Jialing, Li Linghai… Everyone’s attempts had all failed. They could only watch the ‘sh.e.l.l’ covering the light ball peel off and shatter.
Inside the magnetic field of annihilation, Li Yao’s burning soul fire was almost nonexistent.
The only proof that he had just released terrifying damage was the round crater on the ground that was as smooth as a mirror. Colorful stripes were blossoming on the surface of the crater, indicating that it had been glazed and crystallized.
And above the crater…
Gu Wuxin was indeed heavily wounded.
His skin and the flesh on the surface of his body had been burnt to the ground. His body was not entirely blackened. Instead, it was as colorful and translucent as the crater. He seemed to have been sent into a furnace and burnt for forty-nine days in a temperature of almost ten thousand degrees.
Even the lacerations caused by Li Yao from top to bottom could not be fully recovered. From the top of his head to the tip of his nose, from the tip of his nose to his chest, and from his chest to his waist, there was a shocking scar. The scar was deeply dented, as if his body was still divided into two halves and was merely connected by hundreds of granules.
In this form, Gu Wuxin had completely shed the features of ‘Nuwa Clan’ or ‘Human Beings’. He was more like a deity from a different universe.
Although Gu Wuxin did not release his apocalyptic aura on purpose, the hearts of the human experts were still heavy.
It was because the sharp claws on the end of Gu Wuxin’s right arm, which was dozens of meters long, were grabbing Li Yao and his Giant G.o.d Soldier, ‘Solar Calamity’!
Gu Wuxin was so strong that his five claws pierced into the head of the ‘sun catastrophe’ and crushed most of the sensors.
The head of the Giant G.o.d Soldier was the focus of 50% of the sensory magical equipment on its body. Although the head explosion was not fatal, its combat ability had dropped by at least 30%. Many operators of the Giant G.o.d Soldier would rather sacrifice an arm than expose their head to the enemy’s firepower.
However, right now, the ‘sun catastrophe’ seemed to be paralyzed. Its limbs and loins were dangling loosely. Suspicious liquids were flowing out of the joints and the super-compressed crystal reactor. It did not respond to the savaging of the enemy at all.
“Li Yao!”
Ding Lingdang, Boss Bai, Long Yangjun, Li Jialing… All the experts felt that their hearts were being torn apart by Gu Wuxin’s sharp claws, too.
There was nothing but dead silence in the communication channel. There was no sign of Li Yao at all. There was no telling whether it was because he was caught in the enemy’s mental bombardment or because the communication of the Giant G.o.d Soldier was seriously jammed and suppressed.
“Do you feel it? This is the power of the super bodies.”
Gu Wuxin continued savaging the head of the ‘sun catastrophe’ unscrupulously and sent a telepathic thought that sounded like a broadcast to the human experts. “In only thousands of years, thousands of researchers and experts in the Heavenly Palace have gathered together and boasted such strength. Can you imagine how strong the real super bodies are outside of the Pangu Universe? Can you resist them?
“Give it up. If I’m no match for you, you are not qualified to be the enemy of the super body civilization at all. I don’t understand what you are still persisting for. It is meaningless, utterly meaningless!
“Come on. Join us. Let’s share all the strength, wisdom, and memories inside our super bodies. All the strength that I demonstrated just now can be shared with you. We will be one. I will be you, and you will be me. We will create a new world without any conflicts, deception, or contradictions together!
“Shut up, you monster!”
Ding Lingdang took off the facial cover of her crystal suit, revealing an infuriated face. She spat a mouthful of blood at Gu Wuxin and said, “We will not join your d.a.m.n super body even if we die!”
“Then, as you wish.”
Gu Wuxin smiled. The smile on his colorful face, which seemed to be made of ceramic and crystal, was extremely weird. “However, it was not death but rebirth.
His arms, which were dozens of meters long, waved quickly in midair and threw Li Yao and his ‘sun catastrophe’ away. They crashed into more than ten bizarre-shaped piles of wasted iron and copper with earsplitting noises.
In the meantime, the withering and collapsing ocean of cells was ten times more vigorous than before. Hundreds of glittering tentacles extended out of the black spots and stabbed at almost a hundred Giant G.o.d Soldiers.
Most of the soldiers had lost part of their mobility in the previous battle.
The framework and transmission structure of many Giant G.o.d Soldiers suffered from different degrees of explosion. Even the connection between the upper body and the lower body was out of control. They were essentially ‘paralyzed’ or ‘body paralyzed’. There was no way that they could avoid the sudden tentacles.
The tentacles were not so much the tentacles of super-large octopuses as the nerve endings that were billions of times larger. Once they tied up a Giant G.o.d Soldier, they would immediately divide and proliferate crazily. Very soon, the complicated neural network covered every piece of plate armor of the Giant G.o.d Soldier. It even leaked into the internal organs of the Giant G.o.d Soldier through the gaps and the wounds, pa.s.sing through the crystal suit and the mustard suit without any trouble.
“Ah!”
Many experts lost their cool when they saw the vipers and nematodes crawling into their spiritual residences.
The colorful, unusually bright ‘neurons’, while releasing paralyzing and hallucinogenic bioelectricity, slithered toward the nostrils, ears, and mouth of the user and crawled into the body of the expert like lightning.
Many experts were struggling hard, trying to drag the hateful bugs out of their bodies.
But with the a.s.sault of the ‘neurons’, an astronomical amount of information flooded into their brain like a tsunami. Everything that Li Yao had experienced just now was replayed in the minds of many experts.
Besides, because of the ‘wireless transmission’ just now and the ‘wired transmission’ now, the intensity of the bombardment was ten times higher!
Even Long Yangjun, whose body was the most special among all the experts, did not have an ‘Earth’ deep inside his brain, nor did he have mental power and mental defense like Li Yao did.
Faced with Gu Wuxin’s ‘invitation’, they had no strength to refuse.
All the experts were roaring in excruciating pain. Their roars gradually turned dull and feeble, as if they had fallen into a nightmare that they could never escape from. The fall in the endless abyss had just begun.
Whether they were willing or not, almost all the human experts and the surviving researchers of the Heavenly Palace were tied up, covered, and corrupted by the weird nerves that crawled out of the ocean of cells and connected to a super-large neural network.
More and more gray-brown cells crawled up the legs of the giant soldier like a carpet of fungi that could split and proliferate infinitely and gradually swallowed one giant soldier after another.
BOOM! CRACK!
As if echoing with Gu Wuxin’s strength, thunder was echoing in the sky of the primeval relics, which had remained unchanged for billions of years. Colorful clouds were gathering, and dazzling lightning was chasing and entangling each other like a neural network in the form of energy. When the neural network of the universe was gradually torn apart, a giant gap was torn open in the sky of the primeval relics, through which the brightness of the ‘Rainbow Bridge’ was projected into the distance.
“Finally—”
Gu Wuxin looked at the sky and said solemnly, “It’s time.”
