Forty Millenniums of Cultivation Chapter 2646 - A Competition of Willpower!

Chapter 2646: A Compet.i.tion of Willpower!

In the underground Gold Crystal Pyramid on the capital planet…

“Hehe! Hehehehe!”

Intimidating laughter burst out from the depths of Wuying Qi’s throat. Brilliant red streaks were popping up on his bulging if not swollen body. He seemed to be soaked in fire and blood.

His red long hair was like strings that controlled puppets when they stabbed into the bald experts, making the bald experts three times faster and more agile.

A hundred bald experts fought Long Yangjun in turns, and there were more that were showing up in the black fog with their rigid limbs after they were possessed.

Though Long Yangjun was not affected by tenebrum energy, her wounds still significantly weakened her, making it barely possible for her to defend herself.

“Are you done or not?”

While vomiting blood and brandis.h.i.+ng her whips that might break at any moment, Long Yangjun roared at Li Yao, “How much longer do you need?”

“Right away! Right away!”

Li Yao’s finger bones were almost fracturing when he finally bypa.s.sed the traps that Wuying Qi set up. He took a long breath and cried, “Half a minute. Just another—”

Hardly had he concluded when Wuying Qi waved his head, and a thousand hairs darted at Li Yao’s eyes like crimson snakes!

Li Yao sensed that his eyes were hit by dozens of lightning bolts. He subconsciously tilted his head and blinked his eyes.

Exactly when he blinked his eyes, Wuying Qi’s b.l.o.o.d.y hair stabbed his hands, and he dropped the Cosmos Rings.

Secretly cursing, Li Yao hurried to reach for the Cosmos Rings. He finally caught the two Cosmos Rings, although Wuying Qi left dozens of deep wounds on his arms.

However, all the maintenance tools had been shattered and scattered by Wuying Qi’s long hair.

“That is…”

Li Yao was dumbfounded. Greatly disturbed, he couldn’t resist Wuying Qi’s b.l.o.o.d.y tides anymore and was. .h.i.t in the chest more than thirty times in a row. He flew back like a kite whose string was broken, before he smashed into the wall.

The remaining power of Wuying Qi’s attack slithered into Li Yao’s body like venomous scorpions, nibbling his flesh and even his soul.

Li Yao felt that his every pore had turned into a widely-opened mouth that was vomiting blood. Half of the blood in his body was emptied within half a second.

More dreadfully, Wuying Qi dashed to Li Yao’s front right after the blood tides like a shooting star chasing the moon.

With a creepy smile on his face, Wuying Qi raised his right arm high. The red streaks on his arm left the skin and entangled with each other into a complicated and luxurious blade.

Zhi! Zhi! Zhi! Zhi! Zhi! Zhi!

The b.l.o.o.d.y blade seemed to be alive. It seemed to be mocking, or maybe it was singing, when it dug out the last drop of blood in Li Yao’s heart.

“I’m screwed!”

Li Yao’s brain went blank. He could not come up with any solution.

The Gold Crystal Pyramid could not be stopped. The solar storm was escalating. Boss Bai and Lei Chenghu’s fleets were jumping over ignorantly. They were as doomed as the residents in the capital.

The only way out was to kill Wuying Qi and stop the Gold Crystal Pyramid!

However…

Li Yao glanced at Long Yangjun, who was still haunted by dozens of bald experts. The enemies were fearlessly exhausting her with their own lives. It was impossible for her to finish them instantly and reinforce him.

On Li Yao’s side, he only had one last step to repair the Cosmos Rings, but his tools had been blown away by Wuying Qi. Li Yao had been whacked as well. It was impossible for him to finish the procedure when Wuying Qi was gazing at him.

This time, there was really nothing Li Yao could do when the weird b.l.o.o.d.y saber cut him.

“Die now!”

Watching Li Yao’s eyes that were still rolling quickly, like a rat that was looking for a hole when it was cornered, Wuying Qi did not waste time talking to him at all, even though he might have more secrets or enticing offers. Wuying Qi focused all his power on the blade, and then—

The most unbelievable thing happened!

The rigidity that happened to Li Yao just now happened to Wuying Qi again!

He had summoned all his tenebrum energy when he cut Li Yao’s neck with the saber, but the saber was frozen in midair. The noises from his shoulders and his bones indicated that they were broken, but he still could not move, as if he were a statue.

“What’s going on now?”

Li Yao gazed at Wuying Qi, too stunned to wipe the cold sweat on his nose.

Wuying Qi did not sense the pain from his broken arm at all. His face was full of hesitation and struggle, as if an iced lake were unfreezing and the water below the ice was springing vigorously.

His solid legs quivered, suggesting that Wuying Qi had lost some of the control over his body. His eyes were rolling toward different directions at the same time. It was rather appalling.

It felt like there were two powers in his body. One of them wanted to kill Li Yao as soon as possible, and the other was trying to save him no matter the cost!

The end of his raging hair became clear again, like a frozen waterfall. The astonis.h.i.+ng white was spreading out to his head too!

“No…”

Another angry and regretful howl burst out from Wuying Qi’s throat.

“No!”

The second howl, however, turned into a familiar yet strange voice, which stabbed out of his chest, heart, and throat like a white sword!

“This is…”

Li Yao’s eyes constricted quickly. He immediately realized it and said, “It’s the queen. It’s Li Linghai, queen of the Imperium!”

Huala!

A thunder rumbled in Li Yao’s head, breaking all his confusion.

He understood why Wuying Qi dared not to use the magnificent power of the Mad Armageddon!

His speculation was correct. Wuying Qi, as an Immortal Cultivator, and the Blood G.o.d, as a Demonic Cultivator, had irreconcilable conflicts although they had something in common.

When he talked to Wuying Qi at the beginning, Li Yao asked Wuying Qi if he killed his teacher, the Mad Armageddon. Wuying Qi did not deny it back then.

However, a.s.suming that Wuying Qi did kill the Mad Armageddon, he must’ve paid a price. Perhaps something from the Mad Armageddon lingered in Wuying Qi’s soul and always threatened him.

At that time, Li Yao had miscalculated one factor—Li Linghai!

Wuying Qi was not controlling his own body right now; he was residing in Li Linghai’s body, which was incompletely possessed.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, he could hypnotize and even suppress Li Linghai’s soul so that Li Linghai would be his puppet.

However, Li Linghai was a super expert close to the peak of the Divinity Transformation Stage herself. When Wuying Qi had to tame the threat left by the Blood G.o.d with most of his power, would Li Linghai be given a window to regather her free will?

That was the greatest obstacle for Wuying Qi to make use of the Blood G.o.d’s heritage!

It was also why Wuying Qi, or Li Linghai, looked so weird right now!

“No… No… No!”

Wuying Qi, or Li Linghai, was like conjoined twins. Each of them was controlling half of their face, making it half angry and half regretful.

The left hand was clutching the uncontrollable right hand so hard that it was almost tearing the right hand off.

The left leg was also blocking the right leg, preventing the body from approaching Li Yao. As a result, Wuying Qi, or Li Linghai, hopped weirdly with the half red and half white hair.

“Your Highness, is that really you?”

Li Yao was touched by Li Linghai’s courage and determination. He clenched his fists, but he did not know how to give Li Linghai a hand. He could only shout, “I know that this is not your intention. You were fooled and threatened by Wuying Qi. I don’t believe that you’re crazy enough to destroy the capital!

“I believe that you really meant to renew the Imperium, and I speculate that you’re only working with Wuying Qi because he threatens you with your children.

“But look around and see what Wuying Qi has done! He’s not a real reformist. He’s only trying to turn the Imperium from a country of Immortal Cultivators into his own country, which will be worse than right now!

“If he’s threatening you with your children, you don’t need to fear him. Li Jialing is confined in the tank behind us, and your other children must be in the royal palace. If the solar storm escalates infinitely, all your children will die!

“To save your children, there’s only one thing you can do; kick him out from your head as best as you can!

“Wake up, Your Highness, wake up! The fate of all your children and the Imperium is really up to you now! I still remember how confident you were when you described the New Imperium to me when we just met. I was fascinated by your ideology even though I was a Cultivator. It is your belief, isn’t it? You didn’t lie to me, did you? You are still the Li Linghai one year ago, as well as the Li Linghai from a hundred years ago, aren’t you?

“If you are, it’s time to wake up now!”
