Forty Millenniums of Cultivation Chapter 2112 - Our Colossus!

Chapter 2112 Our Colossus!

One starship, another starship, and then yet another.
At least dozens of starships of Starlight crashed or were even deeply embedded into “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”. The exhaust flames that they were spurting out were like the slanted pillars of a splendid palace after the collapse or the many pillars of light that pierced deeply into the space fortress and accelerated the dismemberment and fall of the fiends’ nest!
More starships were providing protection for their comrades and taking the blow of the Immortal Cultivators until they fell apart and perished into the darkness of the universe in light balls.
The Cultivators’ strategy where they regarded death as their homecoming greatly stunned Li Yao.
He recalled visiting the “War Museum” at the East Ocean of the federation in his younger days, where he saw Distant Expanse, known as “the eternal flagship of the federal army”.
In the final battle against the Far East Demon Kingdom, which decided the fate of the Star Glory Federation, Distant Expanse, which had run out of all the supplies and ammunitions, did exactly the same thing. It charged at the enemy’s battle formation with its iron body and burning determination, knocking down the formidable enemy’s flagship!
Maybe, on the two ends of the sea of stars, the Cultivators of the federation and the Cultivators of the Imperium had a lot of differences.
Maybe, under the suppression and annihilation of the Imperium of True Human Beings, the Cultivators here had lost too many things.
However…
In any case, some things could never be changed.
They were all Cultivators!
Li Yao’s nostrils were on fire, from which hot streams that felt like smoke spurted out.
At this moment, he sensed that Li Lingfeng’s fury that could destroy everything was shifted at the starships that were crashing at “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”.
Most of the starships were modified based on carriers and mining starships. They were much less sturdy in structure than the military starships. Having taken too much bombardment in the fierce battle just now, they were already riddled with holes and on the brink of collapse. It was impossible for them to bear Li Lingfeng’s hateful attacks at all at this moment. They were all dismembering, exploding, collapsing, turning into scattered moths!
“Not good. Li Lingfeng is now on a rampage in fury and embarrassment!”
Devastating pictures immediately flashed inside Li Yao’s head. “If I continue pretending to be a dead person and leave it alone, he will certainly blow up the starships of all the Cultivators!”
Li Yao’s fingers began to move uncontrollably again.
The smoke that was rolling inside his nostrils and throat was condensed into scorching magma.
His brain was simmering even harder, and his soul was bouncing up and down like a gorilla in estrus.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
Maneuvering Neltharion, the mental devil turned into a streak of redness and appeared before Li Yao again, triggering sharp ripples. “Don’t do anything stupid. Li Lingfeng is not Wuying Lan. He is not someone you can deal with right now. That is an expert in the Divinity Transformation Stage who has been famous for a long time!”
Li Yao rubbed his nose. “But I am an up-rising star of the Divinity Transformation Stage experts, like the sun at eight o’clock in the morning!”
The mental devil said in a hurry, “Sun my a*s! Don’t be rash, and don’t do anything stupid. You can’t win a head-on clash against Li Lingfeng! Even if the two of you are both in the Divinity Transformation Stage and have a Colossus, the combat ability of the Colossi depends on the sets of intact logistical, maintenance, and industrial systems! Without enough backup supplies and a maintenance workshop, our Colossus is nothing but a one-time weapon. If it is broken and runs out of supplies after the battle, what are you going to do in the next battle? Where are you going to maintain your Colossus, and where are you going to refill the fuel and ammunition?”
Li Yao hesitated. “Seems so. You do have a point!”
On the shell of “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”, the massacre was still going on.
The starships of Starlight were absolutely no match for “Tempest God”, Li Lingfeng’s Colossus. They were ripped apart and completely blown into cosmic dust one after another!
The mental devil: “Of course I have a point. There’s also yourself. If you and Li Lingfeng are equally heavily wounded by each other in the battle, he can recover himself by going to the most advanced medical facilities at any moment, but what can you do? Don’t forget that we are in the Imperium. Where can you find a hospital that can treat the patients in the Divinity Transformation Stage?”
Li Yao: “Huh. Well said!”
The mental devil: “If you know that I’m right, don’t be rash and don’t do anything silly. Calm down. You must calm down!”
Li Yao: “Understood. Calm down. I must calm down.”
The mental devil: “…What are your hands doing? Why are you taking out of the Cosmos Rings? Why are you summoning Little Black? Why is your hair standing up as if in electric shock? It is now even entangled in cracking electric arcs and shining in red and gold! Hey, hey, hey. Don’t think that you can defeat your enemy by a headful of cool hair. Let me tell you. The most sensible decision right now is to preserve our strength and escape at the first opportunity available. Are you listening to me at all, a*shole?”
“I am. Your words are so correct and make so much sense.”
Opening his fingers, Li Yao combed his hair that had erected and risen to the sky like a bunch of arrows. Narrowing his eyes, he remarked, “However, as you know, I have always been like this since the first day I embarked on the path of Cultivation. This is what Cultivators do. This is ‘Vulture Li Yao’!”
…
At the edge of “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”, on the bridge of “Great Mountain”, the armed mining starship, Gao Kangda, the captain, watched the starships of his comrades being blown up by Li Lingfeng’s Colossus one after another, yet he put on a smile of satisfaction with tears flowing on his face.
With everything coming to this point, the result of the battle had far exceeded everyone’s expectations.
They had truly shot down “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”. Nothing could possibly stop the fiends’ nest from falling, and all the evil Immortal Cultivators inside had been killed miserably. It was almost an accomplishment too good to be true.
Gao Kangda could totally imagine the furious and overwhelmed looks of the Immortal Cultivators.
The enemy had even deployed a Colossus to deal with the “mobsters” like them.
That was a Colossus, the ultimate weapon of the Imperium of True Human Beings and even the entire civilization of mankind, and the king of destruction that they had never dreamt of even in their nightmares!
Having shot down “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky” and been killed by the wrath of a legendary Colossus, Gao Kangda felt that his life was worth it!
“Forward! Forward! Forward!”
While laughing hard, he operated on the control panel quickly, trying to exploit the last bit of impetus out of “Great Mountain”, so that it could dig deeper into the shell of “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky” and make it fall even faster!
When Li Lingfeng’s Colossus “Tempest God” ripped apart a light warship and appeared right in front of Gao Kangda’s “Great Mountain”, the old miner and Cultivator who had already fulfilled his wishes did not have any fear. He simply appreciated the destructive, invincible, and unstoppable beauty of the Colossus through the light beam.
“How… majestic!”
Despite the blockage of dozens of layers of super-alloy armor, Gao Kangda could still sense the aggressive vibe of the war machine.
It was like the sun was falling and crashing at him straightforwardly. It was impossible for his crew and him to grow any will of resistance. They could only watch the storms raised by Li Lingfeng to swallow them.
Every unit on “Great Mountain” that could shriek was shrieking. Feeble, floating electric arcs filled up the air. Everybody’s hair had exploded into a fluff, and even their fingernails had split apart in cracking noises. The air of destruction permeated in every pathway and every cabin on the entire armed mining starship. Even the metals that constituted the wall and the floor were moaning in pain.
It was exactly the smell of death.
The Colossus, the ultimate weapon in the sea of stars, was exactly as dominating as that!
Most of the crew members closed their eyes and gritted their teeth, waiting for the arrival of their destruction.
Gao Kangda, however, was the only exception. He bulged his eyes, unwilling to let go of the opportunity of a close-distance contact with the Colossus. The unparalleled magnificence and the astonishing beauty deeply shocked and fascinated him.
Then, he saw the most incredible scene that he could not forget for the rest of his life.
The “Tempest God”, Li Lingfeng’s Colossus, had already raised a saber more than twenty meters long, and the light triggered from the enormous saber had extended to hundreds of meters away. It was more than easy to cut a medium-sized starship into halves.
However, when the smooth movements of the Tempest God were stretched out to the maximum, it was frozen briefly.
After a moment, red flames that looked like blossoming lotus flowers erupted out of the twisted gaps of “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky” behind it.
In the middle of the red flames, black spiritual energy spread out in ripples. At the center of the ripples, a black Colossus dashed out abruptly!
It was almost like the gate to the deepest level of hell was wide open, setting free billions of undying soldiers who carried the wrath of the unrested souls. A black saber mixed with crimson fire was slashed at Li Lingfeng’s “Tempest God” in a storm of overwhelming brilliance.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Caught unprepared, Li Lingfeng was hit right in the chest by the enemy. The two Colossi plowed a devastating ravine on the shell of “Manjusaka, the City in the Sky”, and deafening noises echoed like the explosion of crystal bombs when the ripples of their collision spread to Gao Kangda’s starship!
“Two—Two Colossi!”
Gao Kangda and his crew, the warriors of all the surviving starships of the Cultivators, and the soldiers in the Immortal Cultivators’ warships further away, were all astounded to see what was happening before them.
The two Colossi were like two deities that had arrived from the sky. One of them had crimson flames of spiritual energy dancing on the black shell, and the two overwhelming wings on the back extended to a thousand meters away. The other one’s blue body was forever enshrouded in the most violent tornadoes and had four interconnected wings made of storms on the back. There was also a saber that could slash a planet in his hands.
They passed by each other and collided brutally into hundreds of red and blue streaks, leaving dazzling blurred shadows and trajectories behind them. Having thousands of clashes in the moment, they were on par with each other!
The mysterious black Colossus had in fact blocked the fury of Li Lingfeng’s “Tempest God” and saved Gao Kangda and most of the Cultivators!
“Is this…”
Gao Kangda’s eyes were hot and wet again as he watched. He mumbled in disbelief, “… Our Colossus?”
