Chapter 482 Destroy First, Rebuild Later
When Su Hao returned to the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, he found that Yashan had already cleared out the riffraff. He said, “Next, clean up the factories outside the city. You take the east, I’ll take the south.”
Yashan nodded and immediately flew into the sky, turning into a streak of light and disappearing. With his speed, he would have arrived long ago.
After this incident, he was determined to practice the ability of ‘Precise Flash’ well, otherwise, like today, trying to show off with a new ability would waste ten seconds! What’s the point?
Su Hao then flashed to the factory area outside the city. This place was mostly built with wooden boards and looked very sturdy and durable. Although the metallurgical industry had flourished in recent years, various metal productions were very limited due to the constraints of raw materials, and iron objects were still very rare.
The factories were still running day and night, and the roar of various machines filled the air, echoing from afar.
Although the major sects had taken over these factories and killed most of the management staff, they only remained quiet for a day before arranging workers and restarting the machines, while also arranging various master craftsmen and array masters to analyze the mechanical operation principles, focusing on the hydraulic spiritualization station.
Obviously, they had already regarded these factories as the industries of their own sects.
However, the analysis work encountered a major problem from the beginning. They couldn’t understand why spiritual power naturally generated after the rotor rotated?
Without understanding, they always felt very mysterious, but they couldn’t swallow their pride and ask those mortals. After enduring their doubts, they found that those craftsmen only knew how to do it, but didn’t know why.
They suddenly regretted killing everyone as soon as they came in. If they had known, they would have kept a few alive to extract information.
Su Hao waved his hand, and hundreds of flying knives flew out from the storage space one after another, then shot into various factories, accurately killing the cultivators inside.
In a blink of an eye, the dozens of cultivators in this factory area were alarmed and flew up into the air to check the situation, but before they could understand what was happening, their heads were separated from their bodies, falling to the ground.
In just a moment, all the cultivators were cleaned up.
After waiting for a while, Yashan flew over and stopped beside Su Hao, saying, “Boss Wei, it’s all cleaned up! Shall we go to the next city?”
Su Hao said, “Those stationed at the factories are just small fries, kill them all! Do you know where the main headquarters of each sect is?”
Yashan nodded, “Yes!”
Su Hao said directly, “Then let’s go.”
Is Boss Wei planning to directly attack the sects?
Although he didn’t understand, Yashan didn’t ask much, just nodded and closed his eyes to connect the space. A few seconds later, they disappeared through teleportation.
He had already planted his own positioning stones outside the major sects, ready to teleport there at any time.
Soon, Su Hao received a message from Yashan: “Boss Wei, I’ve arrived!”
He flashed and appeared next to Yashan, turning his head to look around, couldn’t help but be surprised, “Huh, isn’t this outside the Sanhe Peaks?”
Yashan nodded, “That’s right!”
“Then let’s start from the Sanhe Peaks!”
After saying that, Su Hao’s feet surged with Diamond Armor, and layers of ‘Explosion’ runes were gradually constructed, densely packed, forming a huge sphere, dazzling Yashan, who couldn’t help but lose color and said, “Boss Wei, do you want to flatten the Sanhe Peaks?”
Su Hao calmly said, “Not just the Sanhe Peaks, but all the sects involved in the plunder.”
The purpose is not just killing, but deterrence. While the industry is still in its infancy, it’s the perfect time to be ruthless. It’s time to remind everyone and completely suppress their ‘superiority’ and crush their dignity.
If we wait until the industry has fully developed and these sects come out to cause trouble again, the losses will be too great.
Don’t underestimate the destructive power of these Unity Realm cultivators. This fragile industry can’t resist at all.
Su Hao’s strategy is to destroy first, then rebuild.
It’s like building roads. When encountering mountains, we open up the mountains, and when encountering rivers, we build bridges. What does it have to do with me if I build roads and you have deep valleys?
After about ten minutes, a ‘Twelve Hundred Explosions’ with a diameter of six or seven meters was formed. Su Hao slowly inputted highly concentrated spiritual power into it.
The reason for generating only ‘Twelve Hundred Explosions’ instead of more is because Su Hao needs to conserve his spiritual power, lest other sects be neglected.
But don’t underestimate this ‘Twelve Hundred Explosions’. Under Su Hao’s high-level spiritual power amplification, its power is nearly a hundred times stronger than the ‘Two Thousand Explosions’ from a dozen years ago!
This ‘Twelve Hundred Explosions’ bomb exploded at low altitude, more than enough to destroy the Sanhe Peaks!
Even if it can’t kill Nascent Soul cultivators and Unity Realm cultivators, after the explosion, Su Hao and Yashan can finish them off separately.
Soon, this bomb was filled with spiritual power, shining with golden light, and its specific appearance couldn’t be seen anymore. Su Hao reached out and placed his hand on the bomb. Radar perception swept through, and the structure inside the Sanhe Peaks was quickly locked onto a good position, right in the mid-air in front of the main peak of the Sanhe Peaks.
Space module successfully deployed!
Then with a gentle push, the entire bomb disappeared and appeared inside the Sanhe Peaks.
Su Hao’s thoughts moved, detonating the bomb.
“Boom!”
The sky and earth brightened, like the sun falling to the ground. Those who witnessed it had a layer of white marks in their eyes. Then the earth trembled, hearts skipped a beat, and a tingling sensation shook their souls.
A powerful shockwave swept through, instantly shattering the nearest main peak. The upper part almost turned into powder, and the large amount of rubble below was scattered backward by the shock force, becoming deadly projectiles.
The more distant peaks followed suit, swallowed by the expanding light sphere, and all the cultivators meditating within them disappeared.
One after another towering peaks collapsed and fell, everything appearing powerless against this devastating energy.
Many cultivators still didn’t know what had happened, their thoughts forever trapped in the moment of questioning.
The soil beneath the Sanhe Peaks rolled outward, layer by layer, destroying all the arrays built on it, and finally reached the protective mist array of the Sanhe Peaks, flipping it all mercilessly.
The next moment, the mist that had pervaded the mountains for years dissipated!
“Phew—”
A circular shockwave quickly reached Su Hao and Yashan, with a huge force accompanied by many sand and gravel hitting them, making a clinking sound.
However, the two stood still, unmoved.
“Boom—”
At this moment, the deafening sound continued incessantly, even though they had sealed their ears with double vacuum, the sound still penetrated into their brains from various parts of their bodies, roaring incessantly.
Yashan was stunned, murmuring, “Too powerful… I feel like I can…”
After the explosion completely subsided, Su Hao said, “For the next sect, you can give it a try! Go in first and see what’s going on.”
The two transformed into streaks of light and flew to the sky above the Sanhe Peaks. From above, the Sanhe Peaks was completely visible.
The originally ethereal sect was gone, as if struck by a huge meteorite falling from the sky, with a large amount of soil scattered outward, forming a huge crater.
Yashan looked at the new landscape below, once again refreshing his perception of Boss Wei.
Is this the extent that life can reach? The key is, it seems that he, Yashan, can also do it! He felt like he was in a dream, feeling unreal about his own strength.
Su Hao’s radar sensed that there were still some stragglers. His indifferent voice awakened Yashan, “There are still some stragglers, let’s clean them up quickly. There are many sects left, let’s try to resolve them all within three days.”
After saying that, he disappeared in a flash, wielding the long knife in his hand like cutting roadside weeds casually and naturally.
Yashan took a deep breath and also wielded his long knife to join in the cleanup. Every stroke drew blood, every stroke was fatal. The bewildered cultivators, who were stunned by the explosion, had no resistance at all and were chopped down to the ground, perishing forever.
Life!
It’s like this, sometimes incredibly tenacious, sometimes incredibly fragile.
You really die when you’re killed!
Killed by illness, killed by accident, killed by enemies, killed by nature, killed by time…
How can one escape this fate of being killed? How can one avoid death?
As Yashan mercilessly slaughtered, he pondered the philosophical question about life.
After it was all over, Su Hao saw him distracted and casually asked, “What are you thinking, Yashan?”
Yashan pointed to the corpses on the ground and said, “Boss Wei, I’m thinking, since life is so fragile, how can we not die?”
Su Hao chuckled, “I also want to know the answer to that question.”
Su Hao flew up again, looking at the destruction, without much emotion in his heart. What looks destroyed now might become a picturesque heavenly lake in the future as time passes. Human fragility does not mean nature’s fragility.
“Let’s go, Yashan, to the next sect! Since you want to try, then go ahead and try. The structure of the bomb has been uploaded, you can familiarize yourself with it first.”
