Forty Millenniums of Cultivation-Novel2

Chapter 2414: The Last Hope!

Long Yangjun’s attack could’ve directly cut apart the crystalized spine of the Moon Devil, broke the wires and tubes that connected the upper and lower half bodies, depriving the Colossus of at least 70% of its combat ability.

However, the unexpected attack from the back made her only able to wave the sharp dagger sideways and leave shocking damage on the plate armor of the Moon Devil.

The damage seemed long and brutal, but it was immediately blocked by the sticky liquid metals secreted from the body. After meeting the air, the liquid metals quickly consolidated into a gray shell. The enemy did not suffer any fatal damage at all!

Before Long Yangjun realized what was going on, a cold and gloomy mental attack had crawled into her brain, displaying erratic, terrifying illusions. It was exactly performed by “Devilish Abyss” Li Jianyi, a top expert of the Meditation Healers!

Through the enhancement of the Colossus, Li Jianyi had boosted his brainwaves to the maximum and slapped them at the Heavenly Crystal like a ship!

It was a critical attack supported by his hundred years of Cultivation. If it had a regular expert in the Nascent Soul Stage, the victims could’ve been directly whipped into a retard.

Despite the toughness of Long Yangjun’s soul, she was still more or less slowed down. During the half second of delay, “Star Breaker” Song Huanzhen’s second wave of swords had already come. Long Yangjun was forced to cope with the attacks with the Heavenly Crystal, which only had one leg and one arm functioning right now.

After resisting Song Huanzhen’s stormy, continual attacks for almost ten thousand years, she failed to dodge Yue Wushuang’s ambush from the back. In an earsplitting noise, the heavy, powerful tail ripped apart the air and slapped the most vulnerable waist of the Heavenly Crystal in a streak of dazzling brilliance, blowing the Heavenly Crystal away into an iron forest. It could barely stand on its feet again.

“A*shole!”

Long Yangjun was in such excruciating pain that the ice spurting out of her eyes almost turned blood red. She felt that her body seemed to be minced apart, and her left arm and legs had been swallowed by numbness.

The sensors of the Colossus and the nervous system of the user were highly integrated. While the keenness of the Colossus could be improved, all the external wounds it suffered would be fed back to the user without any buffer. In the worst-case scenario, even the nerves and brain cells of the user would be burnt.

What Long Yangjun had been worried about most came true after all.

The traps that she improvised did not stall “Devilish Abyss” Li Jianyi and “Star Breaker” Song Huanzhen for long. They had even inferred her real plan and reinforced the Great Iron Plants without any delay, blocking her before she escaped again!

One ragged Colossus that had almost run out of supplies against three Colossi that were basically intact and supported by hundreds of elites and even more regular Immortal Cultivators and battle puppets. It was an impossible task!

Should I run?

Long Yangjun thought quickly and browsed through the maps of all the mines and tunnels in the hundred kilometers around.

However, the three Colossi did not give her any chance of running at all but surrounded her in a triangle. Hundreds of malicious eyes had also been focused on every gap around her like haunting ghosts.

“Monster Li, I’m really screwed up because of you this time!”

Long Yangjun vomited a mouthful of black blood and grinned miserably. Reviewing everything that had happened over the past half month, even she was extremely astonished at what she had done. What exactly had she been doing? Had she lost her mind? Was she still Lead Eunuch Wang Xi, one of the Four Rapscallions in the Ancient Sages Sector who brought disasters to the world and did not care about anybody?

When did she go through the changes that even she did not realize?

Was it the time when she got in touch with the secrets of the Nuwa warship and activated the primeval memories that had been sealed for hundreds of thousands of years?

Was it when she went to the Star Glory Federation together with Li Yao and witnessed a whole different lifestyle and social form, where human beings did not have to live like self-brutalizing swine in a pigsty or puppets at other people’s mercy?

Was it in the illusionary world created by Extraterrestrial Devil Mo Xuan, where she listened to countless people of the federation singing the national anthem together and breaking everything that restrained them with their unity, making her realize for the first time that such great power resided in the souls of human beings that nothing in the entire universe could be compared to?

Or was it in the fierce battle between the federal fleet and the Black Wind Fleet, when so many soldiers of the federation, including “Rabid Dog” Helian Lie, charged forward relentlessly, sacrificing themselves to illuminate the dark universe and the entire federation behind them?

Did she leave the federation for the Imperium so impatiently really because she couldn’t wait to unravel all the secrets? Or was it because subconsciously, she was scared that she would gradually be assimilated by Monster Li, by the Cultivators, and by the people of the federation, if she were to stay with them in the federation longer?

But she still did not expect that Monster Li would still catch up to her like a haunting ghost when she had run to somewhere so far away from the Star Glory Federation or that she would be infected with his characteristic idiocy!

“One wrong step leads to a thousand regrets!”

Long Yangjun couldn’t have regretted more.

However...

She could clearly sense the sincere gratitude and trust of the refugees of the Great Iron Plants when she led them to evacuate into the deeper parts below the ground.

Their expressions were something that she had never seen when she played “Lead Eunuch Wang Xi”. She had barely seen it when she played “Serenity Seraph” half for fun either. At that time, the Nepenthe believers who had been brainwashed by the Serenity Arts could only watch her with numb and indifferent eyes.

Theirs were not the real eyes, but only the blinking indicators on a spiritual puppet.

Human beings were a gregarious animal after all. They had to fight for something or someone, didn’t they?

Was she... a human being?

Long Yangjun shook her head, and the black hair that had been curled to the back of her head dispersed like crazy flames. Mixed with the eccentric brilliance in her eyes, she looked ten times more intimidating than before, like an ancient goddess that had time traveled from the primeval battlefields!

“Sister Long!”

Li Jialing was also trapped in the battle against a hundred elite Imperial guards and devil huntresses. Under the enemy’s stormy, consecutive attacks, the shortcoming that the three-phase transformative crystal suit was too vulnerable had been infinitely enlarged. His crystal suit had long been blown apart into pieces. In many parts, his golden skin had been directly exposed, only to be covered in red blood very soon. historical

To be honest, if Blackstar the Great hadn’t strictly ordered the hunting troops to keep Li Jialing alive in any case through the mouth of Queen Li Linghai, he would’ve been ripped into shreds by the Imperial Guards and the devil huntresses a long time ago.

Death might’ve been spared, but torture was unavoidable. The enemies’ every attack had been targeted at his limbs, almost tearing his arms and legs apart. Li Jialing was blown to his knees again and again, only to struggle to his feet every time and slash the dented vibration saber into the enemies’ chest brutally.

There was only one belief that supported him to continue fighting.

As long as he distracted enough firepower, Long Yangjun would certainly be able to kill Yue Wushuang!

But the arrival of “Devilish Abyss” Li Jianyi and “Star Breaker” Song Huanzhen cast his heart into the ice at the bottom of a ten-thousand-meter-high valley.

All the strength in his body was pumped away, and he could not feel a single drop of his blood or marrow in his body anymore. On one of his knees, Li Jialing supported his body with the saber that had been blunted, with the world swirling before his eyes. His ears were humming, and he could not get back to his feet again.

“Serenity Seraph!”

Xu Zhicheng and other Nepenthe believers were all rescued by the workers and hiding in the safe area at the edge of the Great Iron Plants.

It was a mess right now, and they were all “important assets” of the Great Iron Plants. The Immortal Cultivators did not want those skilled workers to be stomped on into pieces by the Colossi and therefore did not stop them from running.

They all knew Long Yangjun’s Colossus and that the “Serenity Seraph” had come back to rescue them without bothering anything.

Also, it did not require abundant battle experience for them to tell that Long Yangjun was in absolute disadvantage right now, and she had been heavily besieged and suppressed by the enemies.

All the workers, including Xu Zhicheng, were anxious with hot tears, but they did not know what else they could do except for clenching their fists and praying in silence.

Praying, on the other hand, had been proved to be the most useless thing they had done in the past ten thousand years.

The underground locals had prayed for ten thousand years in darkness, wishing vague brightness to appear in their worlds and change their lives.

But their prayer never worked, and all the changes only made their lives worse.

Right now, it was the darkest moment ever. Would new changes ever come again?

The underground locals were almost shedding tears of blood. They prayed in silence with their life. Once. Even if it is only once in ten thousand years, let the tiny hope arrive!

The Colossi of the three Immortal Cultivators gradually tightened the triangle of siege as they pressed near.

“A very brilliant trap.”

“Devilish Abyss” Li Jianyi’s faint chuckle echoed from the abnormally expanded head of his Colossus. “We were almost fooled!”

“One against three, and she is still capable of launching such a counterattack?”

“Star Breaker” Song Huanzhen also chuckled coldly. “I didn’t know that Dongfang Wang had been keeping such experts like you to his side. Is Dongfang Mingyue really your name?”

“She is not Dongfang Mingyue!”

Yue Wushuang shrieked, “When I fought her just now, I sensed very familiar but weird waves. It’s tenebrum energy! She is greatly related to the extraterrestrial devils. Perhaps she is a real devil. You must be careful, fellow Cultivators!”

“Extraterrestrial devils?”

Li Jianyi and Song Huanzhen looked at each other and grinned hideously. “It seems that we have caught a big fish by accident!”

Long Yangjun sniffed, and clusters of brilliant crystals grew all over her body again. Deep inside every cluster of crystals, objects that looked like gene helices were floating and breaking apart under the boost of her mind!
