Chapter 488: Demon-slaying Allied Forces, Close In, Fire!
Time quietly passed, and Su Hao had been staying in his laboratory all along. Except for once a year when he would appear during the enrollment of the Starry Sky Academy, he was nowhere to be seen at other times.
The only two people who could freely enter and exit his laboratory and meditation room were Yashan and Feng Cheng. Others were not explicitly forbidden but dared not disturb the immortal; they didn’t know how they would die if they accidentally disturbed him.
Yashan was familiar with the way and knew how not to disturb the great elder. Feng Cheng was appointed by Yashan to assist Su Hao in managing his life and could enter and exit at will.
Su Hao was immersed in his research, day and night, naturally unaware of the passage of time. When awake, he would think and experiment; when tired, he would lie down on the bed to sleep. When his mind was stuck and couldn’t figure things out, he would turn to the library for books. When lacking experimental materials, he would send a message to Yashan…
He had become a typical otaku! Not fat.
He himself did not want to interrupt this research rhythm because he always felt that the answer was ‘just a little bit away, just a little bit!’
Not only Su Hao became an otaku, but almost all the researchers who joined the scientific research team developed similar living habits, relying entirely on intuition and completely ignoring so-called ‘reasonable rest’!
It was fortunate that even the worst among these people were Golden Core cultivators; otherwise, they might have died suddenly at their workstations before long.
With the efforts of these people, this world underwent earth-shaking changes almost every day. The technological advancement path that took hundreds or thousands of years in other worlds was like fast-forwarding here, and the speed was so fast that it made the whole world numb.
Of course, besides the power of industry, the cultivators who wielded great power also played a crucial role.
Just in the construction of single roads, these cultivator workers made invaluable contributions.
Finally, they sighed, “The power of immortals can still be used like this!”
Of course, with change comes the fact that someone’s interests are harmed.
Although it was said in propaganda that it was ‘win-win cooperation,’ and it had been broadcasted worldwide for many years, when it came to real interests or ‘dominant status,’ the two words ‘win-win’ couldn’t explain clearly.
Change is a beautiful word, but it is also a cruel word, and not everyone can accept change smoothly.
Therefore, the advancement of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce always encountered various resistances. The reasons for resistance were not complicated: your things are good, but I don’t need them!
Fundamentally, they wanted to maintain the status quo and the lofty status they had. Anything that might disrupt their transcendent status had to be resisted.
Regarding this, Yashan’s attitude had never changed from beginning to end: “All those who hinder development and obstruct progress, send them into reincarnation! The premise of development has always been having a big enough and strong enough fist. Don’t be afraid of destruction, don’t be afraid of bloodshed, I will rebuild a new great civilization on a pile of ruins!”
If Su Hao was the spiritual leader of the Starry Sky Group, then Yashan was the iron-blooded executor. His will represented Su Hao’s will, and his course of action became the standard for all members of the Starry Sky Group.
…
Five years later, stimulated by the bloody and violent advancement of the Starry Sky Group, thousands of large and small immortal sects in the cultivation world formed a huge ‘Demon-slaying Allied Forces.’ With a team of tens of thousands of cultivators, they advanced towards the main city of the Starry Sky Group, Morling City. Wherever they went, all highway factories and other facilities were destroyed one by one.
The Demon-slaying Allied Forces marched in mighty force with high morale, intending to completely eradicate the evil demons and rescue the people of Huayang Beizhou from dire straits, bringing a bright future to the world.
This monumental feat, enough to be recorded in history, made every cultivator who participated in it feel immensely honored.
They were destined to become the heroes of legends who participated in a great battle.
In the eyes of everyone in the Demon-slaying Allied Forces, with such a large army, it was simply a piece of cake to wipe out the mere Morling City, just a formality!
The vast majority of the Starry Sky Group heard the news with panic, almost wanting to flee. In their view, the Starry Sky Group was finished this time and couldn’t resist the monstrous ‘Demon-slaying Allied Forces’ at all.
However, Yashan remained calm and composed, arranging various matters without even needing to alarm the great elder. He could handle them himself!
So, amidst everyone’s puzzled gazes, one after another large spherical objects with a diameter of over ten meters were pushed out from major factories, sent into the charging center, and then emitted dazzling golden light. They were pushed out from the charging center, sent to the temporary teleportation array transfer center, and then transported one by one to the frontline.
Two hundred bombs emitting dazzling golden light, neatly arranged, were placed on the path that the ‘Demon-slaying Allied Forces’ must pass through.
Then Yashan arrived through teleportation and waited among the two hundred ‘Two Thousand Blasts’ bombs.
The core high-level members of the Starry Sky Group also came to Yashan’s side through the teleportation array, expressing their willingness to advance and retreat with Yashan. Even the immortal lord stood beside Yashan.
When Yashan began to learn ‘teleportation,’ Su Hao modified the core runes for him, adding functions such as ‘perception,’ ‘space module generation,’ and ‘negative space module positioning.’ Now, Yashan’s perception range had reached Su Hao’s level, that is, a range of one hundred thousand meters, exceeding that of the average combined cultivator tenfold.
In other words, Yashan could take the initiative.
The speed of the allied forces was fast, coming in a mighty wave and entering Yashan’s one hundred thousand meters perception range.
The allied forces were not concentrated but scattered, forming one battle team after another. However, this level of dispersion, compared to being concentrated, didn’t make much difference, at most requiring a few more bombardments.
A perfect arc formed at the corner of Yashan’s mouth.
The next thing was simple: close in, and fire!
When the allied forces entered Yashan’s perception range of sixty to seventy thousand meters, Yashan activated, arrived between two bombs, placed his hands on them, prepared to lock onto the most densely populated areas of the allied forces in three seconds, and gently pushed.
Space teleportation!
The two bombs next to Yashan disappeared immediately.
The next moment, a strong light flashed in the distant sky, an invisible wave swept across, and the people of the Starry Sky Group felt their hearts clench suddenly, not understanding what had happened.
Immediately, the earth shook violently, causing everyone to sway suddenly.
Yashan didn’t stop; he took a few steps forward, arrived between two bombs, placed his hands on them, locked the position, and gently pushed.
Space teleportation!
A flash of light in the distance! An earthquake!
Space teleportation!
A flash of light in the distance! An earthquake!
…
Five sets were teleported consecutively, and the shock waves generated by the distant explosions finally reached this place. With a “whoosh,” it blew the clothes of the crowd into drum-like sounds, and their hair fluttered and scattered. Those who were unprepared were even pushed backward by the shock.
The shockwaves kept coming, one after another, heavily shaking upon the hearts of the people.
Just as they were about to ask…
“Boom—”
“Boom—”
…
The deafening sound spread, causing everyone covered by shields to hear buzzing in their ears, unable to resist covering them with their hands.
Had the members of the Starry Sky Group ever seen such a scene before? The same doubt arose in their minds: “What is this?”
On the other hand, the immortal master suddenly remembered the massive crater he had seen on the Sanhe Peaks more than ten years ago. His hairs stood on end, and he looked at the large sphere beside Yashan with a look of dread. “If it erupts here…”
Ignoring the intense shockwaves and booming sounds, Yashan continued to deploy bombs among the allied forces, maintaining a frequency of deploying a group every three seconds. Soon, over a hundred bombs were deployed.
Although the intense explosions caused Yashan’s perception to lose precision and he couldn’t even sense the whereabouts of the allied cultivators, it didn’t matter. As long as he knew the general location, he could plow through with bombs first.
After continuous deployment, Yashan’s mental strength became somewhat overwhelmed. He couldn’t help but take a rest for a while, waiting for the explosions to subside, and then continued to deploy after his perception returned. Anyway, within a radius of one hundred thousand meters, it was all within his range.
When his perception returned, Yashan found that the so-called ‘Demon-slaying Allied Forces’ had already dispersed, and the surviving cultivators were fleeing backward.
How could Yashan let the opponents escape so easily?
He placed his hand on two bombs and picked two places with the most people.
Space teleportation!
Picked the place where the combined cultivators gathered.
Teleport!
Picked the fastest fleeing cultivators.
Teleport!
…
When Yashan had thrown all the bombs, the world finally calmed down! The dust gradually dissipated.
Only a few thousand lucky fellows out of the hundreds of thousands of allied forces managed to escape, while the rest were wiped out in the dazzling light!
Yashan clapped his hands, took a few deep breaths heavily, and flew towards the battlefield direction of the allied forces first. The members of the Starry Sky Group followed closely behind. Soon, they witnessed an unforgettable scene!
The landscape where the allied forces were originally located had completely changed. Any mountain daring to stand out, no matter how beautiful and elegant, had disappeared without a trace. Instead, they turned into one huge crater after another. The entire land seemed to have been overturned, and all that was visible was the damp and fresh soil and rocks buried underground.
When the members of the Starry Sky Group looked at Yashan again, it was like looking at a prehistoric behemoth.
No! Even prehistoric behemoths weren’t as terrifying as the strong man in front of them!
This was someone they couldn’t afford to provoke!
Then they thought of the short-haired man standing behind Yashan, the dean who could only be seen once a year, the mysterious man known as the “Ancestor of Ten Thousand Immortals”!
Feng Wei!
At this moment, just thinking of his gentle smile made them feel tingling all over!
