Chapter 2867: Fighting Together

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Li Yao might have expected that Lu Qingchen would not hesitate to attack.

However, he did not expect that Lu Qingchen’s soul would still have such a high speed and mysterious ripples after the suffering of the Fuxi Clan.

Or rather, Lu Qingchen was not as weak as he appeared to be when he was savaged by the Fuxi Clan.

It was not necessarily because he had discovered Li Yao in advance, but more like a cunning instinct.

Li Yao was caught unprepared. His soul was fully revealed, and he did not have the time to release his telepathic thoughts to deal with Lu Qingchen’s escaping soul. He sensed that the light spots that looked like fireflies in the sky congregated into an overwhelming claw of light and snatched at him.
Hiu! Hiu! Hiu! Hiu! Hiu!

The claw of light grabbed Li Yao’s soul. Endless information flooded into Li Yao’s soul like a flood.

When one’s Cultivation and life form reached the level of Li Yao and Fuxi, the confrontation between them was no longer a simple clash of brute force. Instead, countless data or logic bombs were bombarding the enemy’s head and destroying their beliefs and logic.

In the blink of an eye, the Fuxi injected a flood-like data package into Li Yao’s soul, which was the most miserable, painful, and desperate memories of human beings that it had extracted from the human beings’ laboratories.

Li Yao’s soul was immediately drowned by countless memory pieces and twisted illusions.

10,000 extremely painful memories piled up like a hill in his consciousness, almost crushing his soul.

The pain of separation, the pain of losing one’s home, the pain of falling from the peak of one’s career, the pain of one’s body being tortured, the pain of being betrayed by one’s beloved, the pain of one’s ambition being unfulfilled, the pain of one’s death before one’s success, the pain of extreme joy
tuning into sorrow… Countless pains were like countless pythons condensed from black venom that tightly bound Li Yao’s soul.

For a moment, he completely lost himself, as if he had really become the master of the memories and lived countless miserable lives.
He had suddenly tured into a general whose million soldiers had perished because of a wrong judgement.

suddenly, she became a mother who killed all her children because of negligence.

Suddenly, he turned into a “former magnate” who had built up his family’s wealth from scratch and worked hard for dozens of years, only to lose everything in the end and become a beggar.

Of course, there were also countless prisoners who were thrown into prison and tortured for no reason.

Bitterness. The sea of desire. Alll living creatures were suffering. Countless memory pieces were interconnecting in his soul and locking his brain like burning chains.

Thankfully, Li Yao had the experience of absorbing Ou Yezi’s memory pieces before and possessed an extremely strong immunity. Otherwise, it was very likely that he would have sunk into thousands upon thousands of painful memories, unable to extricate himself and would have completely fallen.

However, when the countless painful memory pieces were gone, his consciousness did not return to the real world. Instead, he was teleported to a space where his senses were deprived and there was absolute darkness. He could not see or hear anything, including the existence of space and the passage of
time, as well as his breathing, heartbeat, and brainwaves.

Li Yao thought of what Fuxi had just said.

It was going to deprive Lu Qingchen of all his senses and lock him in a world of absolute darkness and dead silence for ten thousand years!

It was perhaps the most terrible punishment in the entire universe, far more painful than his life in the memory pieces just now. Even Li Yao felt creeped out when he heard it, not to mention that he was experiencing it right now.

Although he knew that it was a big data attack from the Fuxis and that it did not really absorb or suppress his soul, Li Yao still felt suffocated, insignificant, and terrified.

In the desperation, thoughts that had never appeared before were growing in the wrinkles of his soul like a carpet.

“The computational ability of the Fuxis is too high. Everything is under their control. We are walking right into their trap.

“The Heavenly Dao or destiny does exist. Something must have created the universe and us. Then, it will certainly be able to interfere and control us. It will be irresistible, impossible to get rid of, and impossible to destroy!

“Even if we can get rid of the mental attack of the Fuxis and return to the real universe, who knows whether or not the so-called ‘real’ is actually a ‘false’ on a different level? Who knows whether or not the ‘real universe’ is a small glass ball or a toy in the hands of the deities and devils?
“Hehe. Cultivators. I’ve been cultivating Truth for more than a hundred years. I don’t even know what ‘True’ and ‘False’ are. How can I cultivate Truth?

“It’s meaningless. Everything is meaningless. Maybe I can only throw myself into the embrace of the Fuxi and let it lead me to the ultimate answer…”
“Li Yao! Li Yao!”

Right then, Li Yao suddenly heard the earsplitting screams of the mental devil.

As if his soul had been stabbed, Li Yao suddenly shivered and woke up.

It was then that he discovered that he seemed to have been in a trance for hundreds of years, if not thousands of years, and only a few seconds had passed in reality.
‘The claw of light had just been retracted. While it was blinking, it seemed to be surprised that Li Yao had woken up so quickly.

‘That was close!

Li Yao thought quickly and figured out the situation he was in. He was so shocked that his soul almost froze.

The data bombardment of the Fuxis was indeed impressive. They had thrown almost a hundred super crystal processors into Li Yao’s soul at the same time for days, which almost filled up every ripple of Li Yao’s soul and took up 99% of Li Yao’s computational ability. They even tried to analyze and corrupt
Li Yao’s belief so that it collapsed from the logical level.

Once Li Yao had doubts about his belief, his soul would be like a glass tower that would be crushed by his own weight.
Thankfully, Li Yao had absorbed a lot of memory pieces and could distinguish the difference between ‘other people’s memories’ and ‘his own’.

Thankfully, Li Yao’s soul came from the mysterious Earth, which boasted amazing anti-interference and anti-corrosion abilities.

Thankfully, Li Yao had split into a second personality, the ‘Bloody Demon’, which was essentially a special copy of his soul. The two personalities were like two horns. When one of the personalities was confused, the other could remind the other in time. That was why he was invincible!

It was not until now that Li Yao realized what it meant to be caught between a rock and a hard place.

‘The battle was far more dangerous than the one against Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi not long ago.

Even if he failed in the final battle against Wu Yingqi, he could always die.

In the battle against the Fuxis, if they failed, it was very likely that they would not even be killed. Instead, they would be captured and modified into special test subjects so that they could be tortured for ten thousand years.

“Damn. This is its home field. Its computational ability is dozens of times higher than ours. Computing by brute force is definitely not a solution!”

Li Yao’s principle was never to fight head-on when he could run away.

But right then, Lu Qingchen, who was preparing to break out of the siege from the back of the starship, was bounced back to Li Yao by an unknown force.

With a telepathic thought, Li Yao immediately sent out his telepathic thoughts. “Nephew Lu, now that things have come to this, let’s not be too distant with our compatriots and close comrades from the Star Glory Federation. Only by fighting side by side can we hope to eliminate this monster!”
“Let me go!”

Lu Qingchen was both shocked and angry. He did not expect that Li Yao’s telepathic thoughts would be so weird that the soul that tied him up would haunt him and make him unable to move at all. He was so angry that he shouted, “Who are your ‘close comrades’? We are clearly mortal enemies. If you
hadn’t been merciful that day, how could I have turned into a remnant soul and fled to the sea of stars, only to be captured by the monster in the end?”

“That is not the case. Our disagreement is not personal, but a conflict of the great Dao. Our purpose is the Star Glory Federation!
Li Yao hurried to say, “You’ve heard what the monster is going to do to the federation. If you leave now, how are you going to go back to the devastated federation and meet your compatriots who are suffering?”
“Hehe!”

Lu Qingchen sneered and said in desperation, “Can I go back to the federation?”

“Yes, yes!”

Li Yao hurried to make a promise. “Although you’ve made a terrible mistake, the people of the federation will definitely give you a way to tum over a new leaf. Really. As long as you’re willing to go back with me obediently and accept a just trial, I guarantee that I will help you move up and down with the
overwhelming power of the father of the federation. I estimate that you won’t be sentenced to death immediately. At most, you will be given a suspended death sentence, and then you will be sentenced to life imprisonment. You will be locked up for 180 years. Then, if you make any major contributions,
you will find a way to be pardoned, and you should be able to be reborn. This is the path that Jin Tuyi took later. If the federation can accommodate one Jin Tuyi, naturally, it can accommodate a second Jin Tuyi. How about it? Isn’t this plan very attractive? Be the ‘second Jin Tuyi’!”

Lu Qingchen was rendered speechless, but he struggled harder and harder, as if he were trying to get rid of Li Yao and join the embrace of the Fuxis.

“You!”

The mental devil was about to be driven mad by Li Yao, too. “At this moment, you are still talking about ‘execution time’ and ‘life imprisonment’ and ‘Jin Tuyi is the second best’. Do you think Jin Tuyi has a good ending? Lu Qingchen must be crazy to agree to such conditions and join the federation again!”
“Then, then what should I say?”

Li Yao hurried to ask, “Did you lie to Lu Qingchen and say that he would return to the federation safe and sound and not only would he not be punished, he would also have the opportunity to run for the position of the next Speaker of Parliament and promote the ‘Void Spirit Project’ in broad daylight?
Please, he must believe me even if Iam willing to tell him!”

‘While Li Yao, the mental devil, and Lu Qingchen were in a mess, Fuxi had swallowed the information pieces that he had just torn off from Li Yao’s soul. Like a shark that had tasted sweet blood, every light spot was glittering, and the brightness congregated into sharp ripples that looked like the sharp
teeth of a shark.

“There’s no need to argue.. None of you are getting away today!”
