Chapter 496 Coincidence or Inevitability
Soon, Su Hao calmed down and asked the most crucial question: “Yashan, why was this meteorite discovered so close, only now?”
Yashan said: “This meteorite was actually discovered a long time ago, but after calculations, it was determined that it would not collide with the immortal cultivation planet in any way, but would pass by from a very distant place. So, we didn’t pay attention to it anymore. Unexpectedly, after many years, its orbit was mysteriously affected by gravitational forces, deviating from its original path and directly collided.”
Su Hao understood and stopped asking.
It couldn’t be wrong; it must be coming for him!
After obtaining enough powerful strength, various inexplicable disasters always lagged behind him, unable to harm him. However, unexpectedly, after a hundred years, a more ruthless disaster arrived!
It aimed to annihilate the entire planet and cut off his roots!
To be honest, if Su Hao hadn’t rapidly developed spiritual power technology and observed this asteroid in advance, the result would have been the complete destruction of the planet and Su Hao having nowhere to settle, his body unable to replenish energy, ultimately starving to death.
Fortunately, Su Hao was one step ahead and discovered the asteroid three years in advance. With the existing technology, there was a great chance of successfully diverting its flight path.
Su Hao secretly thought: “Reincarnation occurs once every one to three years, the second time between sixteen and twenty years, and then the third time after a hundred years. Will there be a fourth time hundreds of years later? Will it come even more fiercely and suddenly?”
Regarding this, Su Hao would have to wait until he lived for hundreds of years to find out.
Su Hao murmured, “What exactly is the reason? Coincidence, or inevitability.”
…
Yashan explained the plan to divert the asteroid to Su Hao. It basically involved using a spaceship to carry high-explosive psychic bombs, installing them on the asteroid, and continuously bombarding it with large spacecraft to create an angled diversion, causing it to fly past the planet.
Su Hao frowned as he looked at it. He always felt it wouldn’t be that simple.
The calculations from the astronomical center were precise, and Su Hao wouldn’t doubt them. However, precisely because they were accurate, if there were any small deviations during the process, the problem would be serious. He didn’t want the world to suddenly be destroyed when he was about to reap the fruits of spiritual power technology, turning into nothingness.
But this asteroid had a diameter of two hundred kilometers, far beyond Su Hao’s limit of power. Even if Su Hao infused all his spiritual power into the ‘burst’ rune, he could probably only create a big pit on it, which would be meaningless, as he couldn’t even disrupt its overall structure.
Therefore, to solve this asteroid, the power of the entire civilization must be utilized.
Su Hao sighed deeply, “I thought I was so powerful… I’m helpless against a random asteroid! One finger can explode a star! What level do I need to reach to do this? Can my future self achieve it?”
No one could answer Su Hao’s question for now, and as for himself, he didn’t know the answer either.
Maybe he could!
Three days later, after recording all the data into the pinball space to ensure Su Hao’s safety, following Yashan to the astronomical center, after understanding the situation, he immediately overturned all their plans: “From now on, all departments will follow my arrangements until the asteroid crisis is resolved.”
No one objected to this. The name of the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Immortals had already become deeply ingrained in people’s hearts.
Su Hao’s method was simple. He dispatched the fastest spaceship carrying the materials for the teleportation array. After setting up the teleportation array on the asteroid, he continuously transported a large amount of materials through the teleportation array, constantly duplicating the teleportation array until the asteroid was filled. At the same time, he vigorously manufactured a large number of ‘Ten Thousand Explosions’ bombs, completed their charging, and then transported them to the asteroid through the teleportation array, burying them in specific locations without interference.
Because the asteroid was constantly rotating, when it rotated to the corresponding angle, the bombs in specific locations were detonated to guide its trajectory.
In this way, the bombs were continuously detonated until the asteroid’s orbit completely deviated from the immortal cultivation planet.
The most crucial aspect was that during this process, bombs could also be continuously transported to the asteroid through specially protected teleportation arrays.
It sounded simple, but to achieve this level, it required mobilizing the entire society’s productive forces to serve this purpose.
The appeal of the ancestor of the Ten Thousand Immortals surpassed everyone’s imagination. After a single sentence, everyone obediently waited for Su Hao’s next instructions.
In just three days, the detailed preliminary plan was finalized, specifying the responsible individuals for each task, the latest completion times, delivery locations, coordination between departments, reporting channels, etc. Within two days, this huge task plan was further divided into the hands of each responsible person.
The colossal machine of the human collective began to operate in full swing!
Many factories reduced production and energy consumption, maintaining the minimum industrial output while diverting energy to charge the bombs. Many large factories were also transformed into ‘Ten Thousand Explosions’ production workshops. The spaceflight manufacturing bases worked tirelessly, mobilizing manpower and resources to produce large quantities of spacecraft. The requirements were not high; they just needed to be able to fly into space. Various material lists were posted online, and soon received a large number of donations…
Everything proceeded as expected. The fastest spaceship had already taken off into space on the second day after confirming the plan, carrying a large amount of materials for setting up the teleportation array, heading straight for the asteroid, and was expected to arrive and complete installation in one year.
The person who received the task of going to the asteroid was Feng Cheng.
When Su Hao said he needed someone to lead as a vanguard, Feng Cheng immediately stood up to receive this extremely risky task.
Su Hao agreed and handed a positioning stone to Feng Cheng, instructing him to keep it with him at all times. His impression of Feng Cheng was even better now.
He had taken care of Su Hao’s daily life for nearly a hundred years!
But Feng Cheng was now a Nascent Soul cultivator, possessing various powerful spells and artifacts, with considerable self-protection ability. It wouldn’t be easy to take him down.
One year later, Feng Cheng’s spaceship successfully landed on the asteroid and established the first teleportation array.
The entire process was broadcasted live online, and the whole nation cheered!
Then, a large amount of materials were transported to the asteroid through the teleportation array. Subsequently, numerous workers proficient in the ‘Space Balancer’ spell, wearing various thick shields, were transported to the asteroid and, at predetermined locations, established teleportation arrays one after another, while also arranging formations to protect the teleportation arrays.
As they laid down the teleportation arrays, a large number of shining ‘Ten Thousand Explosions’ bombs were transported to the asteroid, moved to specific locations, and buried.
Everything went smoothly as expected, so smoothly that Su Hao dared not imagine it.
At the same time, Su Hao gained a new insight: under equal knowledge conditions, the power of civilization surpasses that of individuals.
A month later, tens of thousands of ‘Ten Thousand Explosions’ bombs were successfully deployed, and all workers were safely withdrawn.
“Bomb 00001 is set to detonate in one minute. Signal delay, countdown in advance!”
“Ten, nine… two, one, detonate!”
Yashan pressed the detonation button.
Moments later, the display screen on the monitoring spacecraft showed that the bomb at the specific location had detonated successfully.
A huge flash of light illuminated the sky, and a large number of fragments were propelled into the cosmic void by the tremendous impact force.
The astronomical center immediately reported progress: “The first phase goal has been successfully achieved. Two hours later, detonate bomb 00002.”
“Phew!”
A heavy weight was lifted off everyone’s hearts.
The crisis was successfully resolved.
At this moment, everyone’s gaze at Su Hao changed once again!
Feng Tang, also known as Feng Wei, self-proclaimed Jia Wei, known as the Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Immortals, this person was the savior of this world!
If it weren’t for this calm-faced man single-handedly promoting the development of society, the technology of this world would never have reached this level. According to historical development, the destruction of this world would have been the eventual outcome of this asteroid impact event.
Because when the people of this world noticed this asteroid, two seconds later, it had already collided with the earth.
The consequences of such a disaster were unimaginable.
Now, this man known as the Ancestor of the Ten Thousand Immortals had broken all these predetermined outcomes, which was unbelievable to think about.
Of course, why this asteroid inexplicably deviated and collided with this planet, no one knew.
Everything turned out to be the best outcome!
