Chapter 3030 Self-destruction
Li Yao immediately felt that an invisible chisel had pierced through his brain and turned his neural network into a interweaving torrent of magma.
He had been discovered and locked onto by the Pangu Clan!
The indifference on the Pangu Clan member’s face immediately collapsed, replaced by wariness, excitement, and brutality, as if he were a human-shaped tyrannosaur. Li Yao thought of something and noticed subtle changes.
The Pangu Clan should not have such obvious and intense expressions on their faces. Were their emotions not sealed?
It was just like the Pangu Clan member who had fought against him in the Kunlun Mysterious Realm. Even at the most intense moment of the battle, the ‘anger’ on his face was only fleeting, as if he was scared that he might be triggered.
But the Pangu Clan member in front of him was completely unrestrained, releasing primitive, primitive, and animal-like emotions to his heart’s content.
Had his seal been broken? Had he regained his emotions? Before Li Yao figured out the question, he already felt that a brutal, stinky wind was blowing at him. Good heavens! The powerful Pangu Clan expert had grabbed the hind leg of the tyrannosaur, picked up the enormous beast that weighed dozens of tons, and smashed it at Li Yao!
Li Yao’s pupils constricted to the size of a needle tip. He turned into a streak of brightness and dashed almost a hundred meters away.
BOOM!
The body of the tyrannosaurus rex was smashed to the place where he had been standing a moment ago, resulting in a blast that seemed to be real. The mud that was splashing was more than ten meters high.
“Hooooo!”
The Pangu Clan roared in fury when their attack failed. They jumped up and down like gorillas and bashed their chests in fury.
“What—what the hell? So barbaric?”
Li Yao’s head was in a mess.
Since his opponent had apparently unlocked the shackles that bound his emotions and will, Li Yao did not want to kill him brutally.
He had no ill intentions toward the Pangu civilization as a whole. They were the continuity of a father-son civilization and even different stages of the same civilization. Was there no chance for them to work side by side in front of the desolate universe and the flood that could destroy everything? Couldn’t they at least sit down and talk peacefully?
“I don’t want to fight you!”
Li Yao gritted his teeth and opened his hands, gesturing to the Pangu Clan. “Can you understand me? At least look at my posture. I mean you no harm. Let’s talk. Talk!”
For a moment, there was confusion on the Pangu Clan’s face.
But his eyes were soon filled with the redness of killing. He picked up a giant rock and threw it at Li Yao.
“Idiot!”
Li Yao cursed in his heart. He did not know whether he was cursing the Pangu Clan that he could not communicate with or himself for his childishness, but he turned into a phantom and dodged the giant rock agilely. Thinking for a moment, he sealed a ‘brainwave’ with the new energy structure that the lightning creature had just taught him and sent it to the Pangu Clan.
“Let’s talk. If we really have to fight, it doesn’t stop us from talking in one minute. At least, we can talk while we fight!
Li Yao sealed such thoughts in his brainwaves.
The Pangu Clan was best at telepathy. If human beings were their creations and their slaves, they would certainly have the ability to command and receive feedback from human beings. The two parties would definitely be able to communicate.
But Li Yao’s brainwaves were completely unresponsive.
No. There was not no reaction. A moment later, an invisible lightning hit Li Yao’s head brutally like a burning giant axe, almost splitting his brain in half.
The Pangu Clan had launched a mental attack on Li Yao!
Li Yao was in so much pain that he could barely contain his fury. He was deeply confused.
Why was there such a deep hatred between the two parties that the Pangu Clan wanted him dead the moment they met?
Or rather…
The Pangu Clan member had been infected by the ‘virus’ that Long Yangjun described. The price to be paid for unsealing his emotions and will was to unleash his instincts of killing and destruction to his heart’s content. He was not targeting Li Yao, but all the creatures in his vision.
There was no time to think. The enemy attacked again like a tyrannosaur that was hundreds of times more agile.
If it were Li Yao in the Nascent Soul Stage in the Kunlun Mysterious Land, he would not have been able to resist such a dual attack without the help of the giant soldier gods.
But right now, Li Yao, who had reached the Soul Splitting Stage, could manipulate his body to dodge the attacks of the Pangu Clan while he established a ‘brainwave shield’ to resist the mental attacks with the energy structure that the lightning life-form had just taught him. He could even spare part of his computational ability to analyze everything in the battlefield calmly.
The combat ability of the Pangu Clan member was far weaker than that of the one in the Kunlun Mysterious Land.
It was not because of his Cultivation or his absolute strength, but because the Pangu Clan member in the Kunlun Mysterious Land was apparently a rational, civilized man who had grasped unbelievable techniques such as ‘Drawing Runes in the Void’ and ‘Dictation of Law’. He could perform powerful killing moves with his bare hands.
The Pangu Clan member in front of him, on the other hand, had been fighting recklessly with his amazing physical strength from the beginning to the end. Even the mental attacks that he performed were not organized at all. His brainwaves were triggered to the maximum and bombarded Li Yao brutally.
Barbarian. He was simply a barbarian wearing the skin of the Pangu Clan!
Besides…
Li Yao noticed that, less than three minutes into the fierce battle, the Pangu Clan member’s chest was already fluctuating violently. His skin turned from grey to deep purple, and steam was popping up from the wrinkles on his skin.
Several obvious red spots were floating on his bare head, as if countless scorching flames were about to burst out of his brain. The ‘magical axes’ that he was slashing at Li Yao with became disordered, too. Many of his attacks were not aimed at the target at all, and his precious mental power was wasted.
Li Yao thought quickly and immediately understood.
Although the conclusion was quite absurd, the reason should be the same as the cause of death of the previous dinosaur. The Pangu Clan member was not adapted to the environment. The gravity here was very comfortable for a human being around two meters tall, and the oxygen content in the air was just right. On the other hand, for a giant carbon-based life form more than ten meters tall, the gravity was too heavy, and the oxygen was too thin. Maybe the air even contained ingredients that were highly toxic to the Pangu Clan.
The Pangu Clan had always been picky about the living environment and was relatively ‘delicate’.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been a need to produce the “universal, all-terrain, versatile tools” in place of the three thousand Sectors. When the Pangu Clan member was chasing after the dinosaurs, he had crossed countless different ecological environments and absorbed a lot of ‘lethal impurities’. Like the dinosaurs, he was already exhausted and on the verge of collapse.
When he saw Li Yao, he launched a high-intensity mental attack without bothering about anything else. However, although he had brute force, he did not have the ability to control brainwaves and mental power. He was about to be burnt to death when his braincells were triggered!
“Hey hey hey hey, you—you must be joking!”
Li Yao didn’t know what to say. He jumped from branch to branch agilely, dodging the increasingly furious and chaotic attacks of his opponent, while he continuously released the brainwaves that he had sealed. “Are you really in a conscious state? Do you know what you are doing? This is not your battlefield. Moreover, your spiritual flames are not surging. You are not even wearing a strengthened exoskeleton to protect yourself. You are resisting the super high gravity with your flesh and blood! Stop it! Stop it now!”
“If it goes on like this, you will play yourself to death. Stop stimulating your brainwaves and mental power without restraint! You are completely overdrafting your life and burning your entire brain at the fastest speed. You are committing suicide. Do you understand or not?”
Obviously, the stranger did not understand at all.
The giant turned a deaf ear to Li Yao’s exhortations and continued attacking futilely. He knew that his skin had turned deep purple, and the white mist spurting out of his wrinkles was intermittent. His entire skull had been heated to the point that it was translucent, and he could vaguely see his brain-it was as if his skull had turned into a piece of transparent glass.
Li Yao had no idea what to do, but he understood the reason why the seemingly insignificant human beings were the ultimate winners in the primeval war.
In the competition of survival, the winners and the losers were never distinguished by their size and strength. Even though the Pangu Clan and the Nuwa Clan were both giants who could summon wind and rain, they still had to abide by the law of conservation of energy.
The larger the body size and the higher the mass, the more serious the gravity restriction would be. The metabolism and energy circulation system would be more precise, and the more likely it would be damaged. More energy would be consumed, and more waste would be excreted.
In order to release intense spiritual lightning, his brain had to be burnt. One moment of carelessness, and his entire brain would be burnt.
If he performed techniques that were too complicated in high-mass, high-gravity, low-oxygen, and relatively short of resources on a high-intensity battlefield, it was very likely that he would be crushed just like what was happening right now.
BOOM!
After unleashing an earthshaking mental attack that seemed to be real and brushed past Li Yao, the Pangu Clan member finally collapsed.
From beginning to end, Li Yao had never taken the initiative to attack him. It was purely because he had over-exhausted his brain and physical strength in the extremely harsh environment. He had drained himself, burned himself dry, and played himself to death.
“What the hell is this? This guy doesn’t even have the slightest bit of intelligence. He completely doesn’t know how to control his own enormous strength. He is literally an idiot and a barbarian.” Li Yao observed from afar and pondered calmly. But judging from the organs in his lower body, he is clearly from the later stages of the Pangu civilization. He should know the basic knowledge about how to control the body and the brain!
