Forty Millenniums of Cultivation - Chapter 2253
Chapter 2253: Gold Death!
The heavy Colossus named “Nebula Tiger” was also driven by an expert of the Li family at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. When it came at the enemy aggressively, it also boosted tremendous impurities floating in the vacuum, which formed a glittering belt several kilometers long around. It truly looked like a cluster of raging nebulae in the shape of a tiger.
However, Li Yao was one major level higher than the opponent in the first place. He had also been swallowing the purest strength of the “Supreme Emperor” from deep inside the Imperial Fire Pearl.
The “Tartarean Skeleton”, the antecedent of the “Gold Vulture”, was an original product dug out from the Nuwa warship, which was 100% intact and undamaged. It had also been strengthened by tremendous secret treasures of the Supreme Emperor.
There was a major gap between the two parties in terms of both the user’s combat ability and the level of the Colossus.
So, the result of such a shocking collision was inevitable.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
When the gold brilliance and the tiger nebula collided brutally, hundreds of overwhelming waves of spiritual energy that were visible for the naked eye were spreading out to all directions like the blasts in the atmosphere. Even the crystal suits several kilometers away were affected. Their spiritual shields were torn apart into pieces immediately, and their power rune arrays exploded one after another, turning into cold iron coffins. Before that, the internal organs and even brains of the Exos inside had already been blown up, granting them an instant and painless death.
The Colossus “Nebula Tiger”, which took most of the hit, was knocked out by the “Gold Vulture” before it had an opportunity to wave the saber. The world was swirling, and all the magical equipment was malfunctioning. Then, its arms were tied and strangled hard, mincing the joints on the wrists, the elbows, and the shoulder blades into pieces.
Within a breath, Li Yao had grasped the tiniest structure of the enemy’s Colossus. His attacks were as smooth and oriented as a dissection.
His spiritual energy burst into the cockpit of the “Nebula Tiger” like a volcano eruption, dealing heavy wounds on the user before running amok on the entire Colossus along with the spiritual energy circuits. Almost all the sensors and power units on every limb were destroyed. As a result, the Nebula Tiger was cramping violently like a crippled cat. The orange lubricants and cooling liquids darted out brutally, turning into a round mist in the vacuum.
At this moment, the second barrage of the Divine Rain Fleet arrived as quickly as a bolt of lightning.
Under the accurate control of the group fire control system, the attacks that were supposed to be at different speeds almost hit Li Yao at exactly the same time.
Li Yao sniffed. The two shining gold rings on his red and black eyes were even more scorching than before. The hands of the Gold Vulture stabbed into the breastplate of the Nebula Tiger unstoppably like blades, completely paralyzing the opponent. Then, the Gold Vulture shrank into a cluster and covered the body with the enormous gold wings like a giant gold egg.
The Nebula Tiger became a shield for the Gold Vulture. The stormy, destructive attacks hit the back of the Nebula Tiger precisely.
Li Yao’s speed was so high that not a single piece of the probe magical equipment could capture his movement. Most of the starships, Colossi, and crystal suits only detected that a series of light balls were expanding crazily like abnormal cancers, swallowing the two Colossi completely.
Although one of their own Colossus had been trapped inside, the commanders of the Divine Rain Fleet were so flabbergasted that they did not stop the incessant, flood-like remote attacks until three minutes later.
However, the moment before the light balls that looked like grapes collapsed and perished, the Gold Vulture leaped out in a way a hundred times more dazzling than the light balls and snatched one of the legs of the second Colossus.
Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!
Thousands of gold electric arcs dashed out of the palms of the Gold Vulture, electrifying the second Colossus into shock and stiffness. Then, it was rolled into a circle by the Gold Vulture, before it was thrown at the third Colossus!
The third Colossus was several kilometers away from them. Naturally, it was not hit by the second Colossus. But it was too busy dodging the attack, so it was unable to keep 100% wary of Li Yao.
Then, it proved that, faced with such a brutal man like “Vulture Li Yao”, even 99.99% of wariness was not enough!
Shua!
Everybody on the battlefield saw perhaps the most dazzling gold light of their entire life.
The light not only ripped apart the dim universe but also their retinas brutally, making them hurt from the eyes to the hearts as if they had been burnt.
It was the rushing aura of a saber that lasted ten kilometers in total and did not perish after a long time under the boost of spiritual energy. Perhaps it would never perish!
At the end of the aura, the Gold Vulture was still holding the saber in the most majestic way, neither sheathing the saber nor turning back to look at the opponents.
On the path where the aura of the blade zigzagged through, the two Colossi were in the weirdest postures, spasming like zombies.
Eventually, two dazzling lights emanated from the joints between the chest and the abdomen, revealing two devastating fractures at the same time. Most of the mobility of the two Colossi seemed to be lost.
One attack to paralyze two Colossi!
All the soldiers of the Divine Rain Fleet, especially the Exos around the four Colossi, felt that they had been caught in the worst nightmare, so shocked that their souls were almost falling apart.
The soldiers of the Astounding Thunder Fleet, including the team of Colossi that were charging at the enemy’s flanks under the lead of Lei Wuya and Shen Tumeng, were astonished by Li Yao’s astounding performance and unable to calm down for a long time.
They were all impressed by the heritage of the royal family that had been passed on for a thousand years. This Vulture Li Yao, as an envoy of His Majesty, was truly extraordinary!
With everything coming to this point, aside from Lei Chenghu and Li Jialing, nobody in the entire battlefield was suspicious of Li Yao’s identity as the emperor’s envoy anymore.
The best evidence was right before their eyes. Had it not been for the legacy of the royal family, how could the Gold Vulture have unleashed such intense, majestic dominance?
Watched by thousands of complicated eyes, some in devastation and some in admiration, the Gold Vulture turned into an aggressive and unstoppable streak of gold brilliance again and rushed forward for a thousand meters in the blink of an eye, cutting into the crystal suit groups that followed the enemy’s three Colossi.
In the competition between a Colossus and another Colossus, crystal suits were there as support.
Right now, the three Colossi of the Divine Rain Fleet had almost lost their entire combat abilities. The remaining crystal suits were naturally no match for Li Yao at all.
Wherever the Gold Vulture blinked by, fireballs were expanding crazily and spreading into overwhelming flames very soon. Hundreds of most advanced crystal suits were all destroyed by the Gold Vulture.
If it were a fleet and a crystal suit legion with abundant experience and determination after fighting in the frontline for a hundred years, they would have known that “even the most terrifying Colossus has its limits”. At a battle of such a high intensity, both the duration of the armor and the storage of ammunition and fuel were plummeting.
For the Gold Vulture, such a cruel truth was also inviolable.
Therefore, the more aggressive the Colossus was, the more important it would be to fight relentlessly in a war of attrition by the advantage in number. It was even an option to heavily damage the spiritual shield and the armor of the Gold Vulture with dozens of crystal suits, tie the limbs and the power units of the Gold Vulture with another dozens of crystal suits, and then ask the hundred starships in the rear to barrage the enemy together. Then, there would be a slight chance that the enemy’s super Colossus would be taken down.
However, such experience, determination, and fearlessness were not something that the Divine Rain Fleet, which had been enjoying all the benefits in the rear, could boast.
At the center of the battlefield, Li Yao’s crazy performance greatly shocked the flagship of the Divine Rain Fleet as well as the starships in the middle.
On the flanks, the Colossus team led by Lei Wuya and Shen Tumeng respectively were also imposing a heavy blow on the arsenal warships and interferential warships that the Divine Rain Fleet deployed there. Two Colossi of the two parties were engaged in a fierce battle, and it was barely possible for the Divine Rain Fleet to regroup.
Not far away from the No. 3 space gate, while the Colossi were fighting, most of the main-force warships of the Astounding Thunder Fleet had leaped out of the void, got rid of the space ripples on them, and joined the battle formation that was more and more grave and overwhelming unhurriedly.
They were not in a hurry to attack, as if the enemy before them was nothing but fish in a water tank!
Faced with such a situation, the Divine Rain Fleet was showing the sign of total collapse.
The fact was obvious. The only hope of their victory was to crush the vanguard of the Astounding Thunder Fleet that was purely made of Colossi before the Astounding Thunder Fleet was completely teleported over. That way, they would be able to hit the Astounding Thunder Fleet while it was not prepared yet.
The Astounding Thunder Fleet had focused the elite forces of dozens of Sectors from the Third Battle Area. Once it finished the jump and regrouped, it was certainly not something that the regional defense force, which was also incomplete now, could resist.
The barrage of the Divine Rain Fleet was disordered.
The previously perfect arc-shaped formation became uneven too. Many starships were hesitating whether to press forward or to flee in a hurry.
Li Yao sensed the enemy’s panic keenly.
Those idiotic guys shouldn’t have given him so much time to rest and prepare.
The Gold Vulture stood in the middle of the void flames, opening the wings and the arms at the same time. His spiritual energy turned into hundreds of visible rays of light that extended to all directions and enveloped the remains of the crystal suits that he had just destroyed.
The remains that were burning in the dual reactions of spiritual energy and fuel were dismantled into the most fundamental pieces. All the pieces were condensed and regrouped into giant swords that were different in length and shape but equally glamorous, aggressive, and sharp.
Vintage primeval patterns appeared in the void nonstop, only to be absorbed by the giant swords and turned into the inscriptions on the bodies of the swords like living creatures.
Very soon, a hundred giant swords enshrouded in gold light hovered around the Gold Vulture and shivered along with Li Yao’s breath while they emitted heart-hurting brilliance.
As the Gold Vulture slowly raised its right hand high, the tips of the hundred giant swords began to tremble crazily, like vipers that had discovered the prey.
Li Yao’s black and red eyes were constricted into two gold points the size of needle tips in an instant as he controlled the Gold Vulture to slash his right arm. The gold brilliance around the hundred giant swords immediately turned into a hundred electromagnetic channels that shot the giant swords out after spinning them for a while. In shrieks that were enough to tear apart the vacuum, the giant swords lunged at the remaining groups of crystal suits!
