Forty Millenniums of Cultivation-Novel2

Chapter 2714 - Ancestors And Descendants

From the master brain, the information on plenty of brand-new structures was delivered to Li Yao as well as countless other big groups. Those structures could instantly unleash the solar energy and the energy in crystals. They were no longer tools but would transform them into the sharpest weapons!

Honeycombs, factories, and other buildings that represented civilization collapsed. Like unfrozen rivers, they flowed toward all directions, partly to avoid the meteorite strike from the Kuafu Clan and partly to assemble weapons.

The civilization of the Houyi Clan on this planet immediately transformed from peacetime to wartime.

The black rivers gathered in the areas far away from the Kuafu Clan’s meteorites and reorganized with the gene designs. Now, they did not care about energy consumption or the longevity of their new structure anymore. They simply turned themselves into tanks, warships, and shrieking bombs.

The troops of the Houyi Clan were mobilized quickly.

Their scouts had already assembled into swift birds that flew to the Kuafu Clan’s landing point and observed the enemy’s progress..

To some extent, the Houyi Clan and the Kuafu Clan were polar opposites of each other although they both worshiped the sun.

The civilization of the Houyi Clan was a bottom-top one, made of countless insignificant beetles.

The Kuafu Clan, in comparison, was top-bottom. It was made of countless enormous plants that were as huge as mountains. Those plants gave birth to different kinds of fruits, and the fruits could be developed into individuals of different functions.

They even changed other lives on their mother planet with their sap and modified the inferior lives into their slaves. When they sailed across the universe, they carried the seeds of those slaves and unfroze those seeds when they arrived at a suitable planet.

It was safe to say that every member of the Kuafu Clan was a complete ecological system as well as all the lives in it.

When the first batch of scouts reached the landing site, the Kuafu Clan had already grown at an astonishing speed.

Trees hundreds of meters tall were rising; their roots stretched for thousands of meters, and their branches waved crazily like tentacles. Like a natural shed, they blocked all the sunlight and swallowed everything within dozens of kilometers.

Not just that, those members of the Kuafu Clan also had fluctuating burls on them that were spurting out smelly dust. The dust blocked the sky higher above like a mist and was fatal and contagious. For the Houyi Clan, it was a hundred times more dangerous than the fungi.

When the scouts of the Houyi Clan entered the range of the dust, the patterns on their shells would be corroded, and the runes would turn blurry. Furry fungi would be growing on their wings and their shells before they collapsed all of a sudden in the entanglement of fungus threads.

It would take more time for the army of the Houyi Clan to gather, and even more time for them to develop resistance against the venomous spores.

The members of the Kuafu Clan that invaded this planet developed crazily during the time. They established "sheds" one after another, absorbing warmth from the sun and nutrition from the soil. Of course, they devoured the residues of the Houyi Clan too, sending them to their thick and enormous bodies.

With sufficient nutrition, the slaves that had been hiding in them were woken up after adjusting their characteristics according to the features of this planet. They broke out of the burls on the surface of the trees, making up for the Kuafu Clan’s slow movement.

A brutal war began!

The newly-assembled tanks and warships of the Houyi Clan pressed forward at the areas occupied by the Kuafu Clan, trying to stop their enemy’s development.

Number was the Houyi Clan’s only advantage. They had to eliminate all the invaders as soon as possible, or when the invaders developed to a new phase, more advanced slaves would be released, and the trees would be able to move fast.

In the worst-case scenario, the Kuafu Clan would enshroud all the places on this planet that had sunlight and disrupt the Houyi Clan’s connection to the sun.

The Kuafu Clan, on the other hand, had prepared tremendous slaves and waited for the army of the Houyi Clan to arrive.

The war lasted a hundred days, until the Houyi Clan exhausted all their structures and troops. When they were closest to victory, they even destroyed seven trees of the Kuafu Clan consecutively. Countless beetles crawled into the trees through the burls and released special venom with their lives. The venom corrupted the Kuafu Clan’s gene strands and made them unable to take the sunlight anymore. The seven trees were set ablaze by the sun.

When the sky was illuminated by the seven enormous torches, the master brain of the Houyi Clan thanked the mother sun with all its people in delight. historical

Alas, the sun was not only their god but also the Kuafu Clan’s.

Too many. The enemy had too many slaves, and they were growing faster than the master brain of the Houyi Clan thought.

The Kuafu Clan soon conducted new modifications against the Houyi Clan’s venom, and the new-generation slaves were stronger, faster, and more pertinent.

After securing the initial landing site and making the place impenetrable, the individuals of the Kuafu Clan slowly moved to new areas under the protection of slaves and rooted as the centers of their new colonies.

Just like that, swallowing the land inch by inch, the Kuafu Clan took the initiative of the war patiently.

The mist of venomous spores in the sky was more and more intense and lethal. No matter how the Houyi Clan adjusted their structure, a lot of them were dying under the scourge of the spores.

Without sunlight and enough nutrition, the new generation of the Houyi Clan could hardly be born. Only several dozens of ten thousand eggs could mature in the end.

The roots of the Kuafu Clan even stretched by thousands of meters below the ground, competing with the Houyi Clan for the precious minerals.

When the Kuafu Clan occupied most of the mother lodes, they grew even faster. Many members of the Kuafu Clan even topped the atmosphere. They blocked the sunlight beyond the atmosphere and transformed it into energy in their bodies. All creatures dependent on sunlight on the ground had to obey the Kuafu Clan’s command.

Eventually, even the master brain of the Houyi Clan was located and destroyed by the Kuafu Clan. Only two pieces of it managed to flee with the survivors of the Houyi Clan.

However, with the branches and roots of the Kuafu Clan in every direction, they couldn’t escape at all.

"We’ve failed yet again. This planet has been conquered by the evil Kuafu Clan," said one of the master brain pieces to the survivors.

Li Yao could sense its grief and fury.

Tiny bugs might not have feelings, but the members of the Houyi Clan gathered by countless bugs had the strongest feelings.

They weren’t scared of death. They did not even know what death was.

However, the mother sun was about to be sullied by the Kuafu Clan, which was more painful than death for them.

"No, we haven’t failed yet."

The other master brain piece, which was smaller, said, "When the enemy tore us apart, I noticed the quakes of the sunlight. It was the mother sun’s enlightenment.

"Mother sun of this planet is about to enter her cyclical phase of unsteadiness. If we concentrate our remaining crystals and charge at the sun, we may be able to escalate the unsteadiness and increase the intensity of solar radiations and high-energy particles by ten times!

"Now, the whole planet, even beyond the atmosphere, has been occupied by the Kuafu Clan. If the sun is enraged, it will be the Kuafu Clan who takes the hit first, and the survivors of our people might be able to make it by hiding under the shadow of the Kuafu Clan."

"Praise mother sun!"

The first master brain piece said, "Even if we can’t survive, we will die with the enemy. We cannot let the bloody Kuafu Clan sully our mother!"

Then, the final strategy was settled.

In his trance, Li Yao saw that the bigger master brain piece led a batch of beetles to launch a suicide attack at the Kuafu Clan as a distraction.

The smaller master brain piece, on the other hand, led the remaining survivors and turned into an enormous starship covering all the crystals they had. Then, it took off, broke through the branches and leaves of the Kuafu Clan, and charged at the sun!

Shua!

All the crystals were activated, and their energy was unleashed. Overpowered by the energy, the Houyi Clan’s starship was torn apart, and hundreds of beetles were set on fire, making them look like the most splendid butterflies dancing in the vacuum.

In a minute, those butterflies would reach the end of their lives.

But it didn’t matter, because they had already released a super enormous egg that contained all their genetic information before they marched at the sun.

The egg would float in space for a long time, but one day, it would be found by other members of the Houyi Clan and teach them how to deal with the Kuafu Clan.

A long, long time later, the genetic information that was contained within would be implanted into the gene strands of human beings by the Nuwa Clan to tell human beings this story from the primeval age.

Even if human beings couldn’t understand it at the beginning, it would be fine, because the genetic information that contained the story would be passed on for generations, and someone would crack it someday.

Even if no human beings could decrypt it, it would still be fine, because human beings would definitely leave descendants, like Wisewares or information lives, before they perished.

Those descendants would scan human relics and decipher the stories of their ancestors from the genes of mankind. They would know that they were also the descendants of the Houyi Clan, or maybe they would be the Houyi Clan themselves.

Civilization never had a start or an end. Houyi, human beings, and crystal processor lives were all just tiny units of the big universe. Civilization was an incessant and inseparable river. The Houyi Clan was mankind, and mankind was crystal processors. They would live to all eternity as long as the universe existed...
