Inside a warship, Lang Xiao suddenly felt a chill down his back. He looked around, slightly puzzled, and said, "How strange, why do I suddenly feel a chill down my back? Is it just my imagination?"
"It's not an illusion."
Chapter 162 Snow, Dead!
Just then, a calm voice suddenly rang out, and then the metal door opened and Li Dao walked in with his hands behind his back.
"It's you, Earth God Li Dao. What brings you here to see me?" Lang Xiao was startled, but he asked calmly on the surface.
"It's nothing serious. I just learned a new supernatural power and wanted to test its effects on you," Li Dao said calmly as he walked to the middle and sat down where the wolf had been sitting.
"Supernatural powers?!" Wolf Xiao exclaimed in surprise.
The Taotie warriors in the control room dared not move. The person in front of them was too powerful. If they really fought, even if all of them combined, they wouldn't be enough to be crushed by a single punch from him.
“That’s right, don’t worry, it won’t kill you,” Li Dao said.
It won't kill you, but it will erode your spirituality, leaving you with an empty shell of spirit, because if you really want to categorize the Reincarnation Technique, it belongs to the category of spiritual supernatural powers.
The loss of one's spirituality is almost as serious as death, but it leaves behind a vegetative state.
The wolf hesitated.
"The decision is yours, and I will not force you to do anything against your will." Li Dao flicked his fingernails, producing a sound like metal clashing. Clearly, his body was harder than steel, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to produce such a crisp, striking sound from flicking his fingernails.
"Okay, but may I ask why you chose me? After all, the closest ship to Earth is the one Tiger Soars is on." Wolf Xiao nodded, but asked inwardly, puzzled.
“It’s very simple.” Li Dao smiled. “Because you are the commander of the Taotie army responsible for invading China, and I believe in cause and effect, you are naturally the best choice. Are you satisfied with this answer?”
Beneath the wolf-headed hood, his eyes narrowed, and he finally let out a long sigh: "The king has wronged me!"
Li Dao slowly stood up, walked to Lang Xiao, and used the Samsara Technique to touch Lang Xiao's brow. Lang Xiao's body instantly collapsed powerless.
Without Li Dao's permission, the Taotie beasts dared not step forward to help him up, letting him fall onto the cold metal floor like a puddle of mud.
After bringing the wolf-like beasts into the cycle of reincarnation, Li Dao returned to his seat and sat down, watching quietly. He glanced at the gluttons and then crushed them all with a single hand.
"I'll collect some interest on the sins your race has committed on Earth. Once I have Karl's resources, I'll send you to meet your so-called gods," Li Dao's gentle voice rang out softly.
Just as Li Daon was attempting the reincarnation technique with the wolf cub, Snow arrived on Earth with the resources and technology promised by Death God Karl.
"Li Dao is not on Earth?" Snow was reading Earth's dark data information through the engine when he suddenly discovered that Li Dao was not currently on Earth.
Furthermore, he discovered that Li Dao's villa contained two undetectable secrets. If even a third-generation divine body couldn't detect them, then it must be a fourth-generation divine body!
“One is definitely He Xi’s clone, but who is the other? According to my god’s information, Angel Yan is heading to Frazier, which means this person is not an angel…”
Snow's eyes, hidden behind his mask, flickered with emotion as he pondered the identity of the other person inside the villa.
It is known that all beings in the universe who possess the fourth generation of divine bodies have names and surnames, and their fame resounds throughout the universe; it is impossible for them to be unknown.
Because every god-level civilization is built up step by step; it's impossible to create four generations of divine bodies overnight.
However, Snow was unaware that his whereabouts had already been exposed, and that all of his dark data, whether encrypted or unencrypted, had been completely extracted.
"Snow, that freakish lackey of Death God Karl, he's probably here to deliver resources to the little Taoist priest, really..."
And then there's Death Knight, who likes to play the field behind the scenes. He's one way in public and another in private. He's good at being humble and patient, even more so than King Goujian of Yue in ancient China.
The young girl, Keisha, drank a cup of tea brewed from tea leaves produced in the Angelic Civilization, and spoke in a calm and unhurried voice.
Although she granted Yan access to her sacred treasure trove of knowledge, she reserved some access for supplementing her computing power.
After all, a fourth-generation divine body without the support of a celestial computer is not a fourth-generation body, but a pseudo-fourth-generation body. Its computing power and physical strength are slightly stronger than the third generation, but they will not be able to overwhelm it.
He Xi sipped her tea. She had suspected something before, and now that Queen Keisha had said it, her guess was confirmed.
"Aren't you angry?" He Xi asked.
The young girl Keisha shook her head: "Why are you angry? Li Dao said that my justice and order, my existence, have suppressed the development of the civilization of the gods."
"So, they want me to fall no matter what. It has nothing to do with right or wrong, nothing to do with stance, it's all about the so-called conflict of interests."
“I suppressed them, and they turned around and destroyed me. I think this is normal because I blocked the path of the gods, so it doesn’t matter whether Li Dao intervenes or not.”
"Besides, the young Taoist priest at that time did not have the strength or means to contend with Karl. At most, he could only play some tricks under Karl's nose."
He Xi nodded, then slowly stood up: "Since Queen Keisha cannot take action, then I will do it myself. It just so happens that your fall is related to Karl, so it is reasonable for me to take action. Otherwise, it would arouse suspicion."
“Alright.” The girl, Keisha, nodded.
With a whoosh, He Xi drew a royal sword from the spatial wormhole, instantly donned the royal armor, and strode out in her high-heeled combat boots, her silver hair fluttering in the wind.
“He Xi!” Snow looked at the beautiful woman in the villa, and she was looking at him in return.
"Immediately connect to the space-based system and seal off the area within one kilometer of me." He Xi withdrew her gaze, her voice calm.
[Link successful. Blocking the area within one kilometer of you. 1%...50%...100% Blocking successful]
"Oh no!" Snow exclaimed in alarm. He was about to use the wormhole to jump and escape when he found that the surrounding space was like a solid wall with no signs of being breached.
Then a voice suddenly rang out: "The field space is sealed, and the space cannot be activated."
"I should have run immediately." Snow regretted, but no matter how much he regretted, it was no use. He looked back at Tianji King Hexi, who was walking towards him with a silver sword in his hand.
"The field space is now sealed off. Unless you defeat me, you will never be able to leave here. This place is supported by the space-based system, and your computing power cannot break through it."
“Karl wouldn’t travel thousands of miles to come here for you. After all, he’s used to hiding, so it’s basically impossible for him to come to Earth to save you.”
He Xi stopped when she was less than five meters away from Snow, and said softly with her red lips parted.
Clearly, she wanted to leave Snow here, even though there was a high probability that Karl had left Snow with spare dark pheromones.
But so what? Doesn't Karl need to consume resources to resurrect people?
"Your Majesty the Heavenly King has impressive skills." Snow praised without changing his expression, then drew a long, narrow scimitar, about five feet long, its blade gleaming coldly. At the same time, he assumed a dueling stance from ancient Rome.
He Xi's eyes narrowed, and he stepped forward with the King's Sword in hand, swinging it to thrust, stab, parry, chop, and hack... His movements were swift, agile, and powerful.
Snow defended, his blade flashing, struggling to withstand He Xi's fierce and cunning attacks.
The generation gap between the third and fourth generations is too large. Even without using computing power, the fourth generation can still overpower the third generation. Otherwise, why would He Xi waste resources to upgrade this clone to the fourth generation divine body?
Swoosh! A flash of sword light, and in an instant, Snow and his long, narrow scimitar were cut in two.
The battle lasted only a few moments.
Chapter 163 You killed Snow?!
Inside a Taotie warship, Li Dao silently gazed at the wolf-like creature lying on the cold metal floor, unaware of what was happening on Earth.
Otherwise, I would definitely curse her as a spendthrift woman. Someone gave me resources and technology, but before they could even deliver them, she killed them.
Looking at the wolf-like creature's expression, which alternated between excitement, fear, murderous intent, and contortion, it was clear that it was experiencing a rich and varied life.
Li Dao sat in the cold, high-tech seat, gazing quietly, unaware of how much time had passed.
Until, at a certain moment, Lang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the long-lost and familiar warship ceiling, his eyes revealing a sense of vicissitude, bewilderment, helplessness and relief.
Was it a dream?
He experienced so much in that dream that those experiences formed a torrent of memories flooding his mind, intertwining with his present memories, like a dream, a mix of truth and illusion.
"Ouch~ My head hurts!" Lang Xiao sat up, took off his helmet, rubbed his throbbing temples, and gasped for breath, seemingly forgetting that Li Dao was sitting in his seat.
“Indeed, you are the first person to be able to survive ninety-nine lifetimes and still regain consciousness.” Just then, a calm and serene voice rang out.
Wolf Xiao was startled and quickly looked in the direction of the sound, his voice ringing out, "Who is it?!"
Boom!dong dong!
Then, Lang Xiao saw the Taoist sitting in front of him, his dark and deep eyes staring at him, and his slender, fair fingers gently tapping the armrest, producing a dull, metallic sound.
Each gentle tap felt as if someone were pounding his heart with a drumstick, causing a violent throbbing and a sensation of his heartstrings snapping.
"You are... Li Dao?!" At this moment, the wolf cub finally remembered who the Taoist was the instant it saw him, and the memories in its mind gradually distinguished between reality and illusion.
He was Lang Xiao, the commander of the Taotie, and was used by Li Dao as a test subject to experiment with supernatural powers. He remembered everything.
But what's the use of remembering it?
“Not bad. I didn’t expect that after ninety-nine lifetimes, you could still see me and remember the whole story instantly. You are a person with a strong will.” Li Dao looked down at the wolf, slowly stood up, his Taoist robe hanging down, and walked slowly with his hands behind his back, speaking in a calm voice.
Wolf Xiao staggered to his feet, looked at Li Dao who was walking towards him, and then glanced around. There was no one there, and on the ground was a pool of solidified green liquid and scattered fragments of broken armor.
He knew that the other Taotie had probably already been killed by the other party, so he calmly questioned, "You never intended to let me go from the beginning, did you?"
Having experienced ninety-nine lifetimes, his mindset has changed drastically. He is almost no longer afraid of death, after all, he has already died ninety-nine times in the cycle of reincarnation.
However, the previous ninety-nine deaths were all fake deaths, but this time he was really going to die, so he chose to face it.
Li Dao paused, looked at the wolf-like creature whose demeanor had changed, and nodded gently with a smile: "Yes, just as you have done to the Earthlings, I will naturally return everything to you."
"Of course, it is possible that one day in the future, someone will personally go to the River Styx to destroy your civilization and your home planet."
His voice was calm, yet resolute, echoing throughout the control room.
"A plan meticulously crafted over a thousand years, with countless schemes and calculations, yet we never expected to overlook a monster like you who has emerged out of nowhere in just two short years." Wolf Xiao looked dejectedly at the Taoist priest before him, his voice filled with regret and resentment.
"I accept your last words." Li Dao stepped forward and extended his large hand.
However, the next second, a "whoosh" sound rang out, and a beam of laser light suddenly shot towards Li Dao's chest, abruptly and rapidly.
Clearly, Lang Xiao didn't want to end his life like this, so he wanted to fight for one last chance at survival.
Bang! However, Li Dao did not intend to dodge. His large hand continued to reach forward, letting the laser beam come towards his chest. Immediately afterwards, a clear sizzling sound and a dull collision sound rang out.
Just a second before the wolf was enveloped by the large hand, it saw a small hole in the other's chest, revealing skin as perfect as fine jade, white as jade, crystal clear, and untouched by dirt.
How can it be? !
Wolf Xiao looked incredulous, but quickly came to his senses. He was immediately grabbed by Li Dao's large hand, but his voice still blared hysterically: "Li Dao, you'll only ever be fit to smell my God Karl's farts!!"
Li Dao ignored them and forcibly searched the soul using divine soul techniques, reading memory fragments and absorbing a massive amount of images from the cycle of reincarnation.
"Ahhh!!!" Soul searching is an unnecessary method with significant side effects on the person being searched, so Lang Xiao is enduring the pain caused by it.
This kind of pain is a thousand times, ten thousand times more painful than physical pain, and even more painful than the so-called slow slicing or being cut into a thousand pieces!
"Hmm, it seems quite perfect now, which saves me the trouble of catching lab rats again."
In just a few seconds, Li Dao read through the memories in Lang Xiao's mind. After confirming that the reincarnation world was roughly complete, he crushed the now-dumb Lang Xiao to death and then casually threw it away like a dead dog.
"It's time... Hmm? Since we're here, why not borrow some of the Taotie civilization's books first? A civilization centered on war must have left behind quite a few things from Karl, right?"
