Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 3103 Retribution

Along with the description of the voice, a ‘saint’ in a white uniform appeared in Li Yao’s mind. He had a kind smile and a pure aura around him. Looking at his pure and innocent eyes and compassionate expression, Li Yao felt that he was the kind of person who would cut off his own flesh to help the desperate victims.

However, black devils were hiding behind the wings that were as white as angels.

He assassinated the upright politicians and soldiers who were truly determined, participated in the power struggles of the rich and powerful, imprisoned and corrupted the reporters who dared to speak the truth, and coerced the well-respected and renowned scholars into lying openly about their plans to march into the universe by threatening them with various methods, including kidnapping their family members. He also conducted unpardonable, inhuman experiments on human beings and condensed countless powerful training techniques with the blood of countless innocent people into countless loyal monster warriors... ‘Wan Zanghai’, the Chairman of the Earth Council, was simply a replica of Xiao Xuance, Lu Zui, Wu Yingqi, and the rest of them. No. He was the ‘ancestor’ of the schemers and schemers. The meticulousness and the brutality of his methods dumbfounded Li Yao.

“What-what have I done exactly?”

Li Yao regretted his choice the moment he made it.

Although everything had happened billions of years ago and was an unchangeable history, Li Yao still felt that he was the one who had released the ferocious beast named ‘Thousand Treasures Sea’ and allowed it to trample on his mind and soul and corrupt his belief.

Then again, Wan Canghai was the same as Xiao Xuance, Lu Zui, Wu Yingqi, and the other schemers and schemers. Other than his evil nature, he also boasted tenacity and leadership.

With his strategical planning and tireless endeavors, the plan to march into the universe was carried out at a lightning fast speed. Five hundred immigration starships, each of which could accommodate a million hibernators and allow fifty thousand of them to live and study in a clear state, were finally produced.

The hibernation technology and the space navigation technology were getting more and more mature, too. There were a lot of follow-up technologies that could be explored and developed after they escaped from Earth.

Everything was ready except for one thing.

At this moment, Wan Zanghai told a big lie to all the citizens.

There were only five hundred immigration starships, which could only carry five hundred million people. However, the Thousand Treasures Sea had bribed and threatened all the experts and participants of the project. It had even faked 2,500 non-existent immigration starships with shabby shells and sets, bringing the total number of the immigration fleet to three thousand.

Three thousand starships were enough to carry everyone to safety. When the news came out of ‘Saint’ Wan Canghai’s mouth, the entire Earth was drowned in a sea of joy.

As for Wan Canghai, he was promoted from a ‘saint’ to a ‘savior’. Everybody believed that he could save the civilization and everyone.

Naturally, it was a complicated and protracted task to move everyone to the starship. The authorities of the Earth Council under the leadership of Wan Canghai asked all the citizens to be patient and wait patiently at home. As long as social order was maintained, it would be their turn to board the starship very soon.

“All the earthlings are inseparable. I will never abandon anybody, just like I will never abandon my heart!

Wan Zanghai’s words were powerful and resonating

He had fooled everyone into trusting him with such a sordid trick.

Most of the civilians had been drained of their last drop of sweat after a hundred years of hard work. They were waiting patiently in the slums with hope.

In the meantime, a lot of ‘space training camps’ had been established in the Thousand Treasures Sea, which claimed that they would provide adaptive training for the ordinary people and pull them away one by one. Such methods further divided the public and calmed them down. Everybody believed that ‘I will be next’.

In the meantime, the nobles, the rich, the soldiers, the elites, and the demons boarded five hundred real immigration starships quietly and took away most of the valuable facilities and resources on Earth.

Of course, a lot of soul-stirring, twisted, and bizarre stories happened during the process. Some righteous journalists and scientists who had found their conscience tried to tell the truth, only to be captured and murdered by the subordinates of Wan Zanghai.

Finally,

When the five hundred real immigration starships spurted crimson exhaust flames into the sky and tore apart the atmosphere, only to leave the intense black smoke for Earth, the ordinary people finally discovered the scheme of the rich and the powerful.

But it was too late. Before Wan Canghai left, he had destroyed all the surface-to-air missiles in the military bases. The immigration starships were so fast that they soon got rid of the gravity of Earth. No matter how desperate and desperate the people on the ground were, they could not affect the refugees in the sea of stars at all.

“T-this!”

Although Li Yao could not feel his real body, he still found it hard to breathe.

He knew that the ‘no other choice’ was sordid and cruel, but he did not know that it was so sordid and cruel.

There was no picture of the fury, desperation, and sorrow of the people who stayed on Earth in his brain, but he could totally imagine that the Earth at this moment was a hundred times more dreadful and miserable than hell.

The picture inside the immigration starship, the nobles, magnates, and elites of all walks of life were dancing and celebrating with champagne in their hands, while they were singing and dancing—was still vivid in Li Yao’s mind. He couldn’t be more ashamed.

Then, Li Yao saw an unforgettable scene.

The migration fleet did not leave the solar system directly. Instead, they stayed outside of the orbit of Jupiter and tried to build a ‘gravity slingshot’ with the enormous gravity of the planet. They also opened enormous golden membranes toward the sun, which looked like an overwhelming sail.

They were waiting for the destruction of Earth.

Here it comes. The meteoroid shower.

Judging from the scale of the universe, the meteoroid showers were as insignificant as dust. Even the naked eye could not distinguish them.

It was not until the meteoroid shower carrying tremendous crystals and spiritual energy crashed into the sun and swallowed Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars that Li Yao had to admit that it was a real catastrophe.

The Earth had been destroyed.

The blue planet, which was the origin of the ancient human beings and one of the earliest sources of life in the sea of the universe, turned dry, black, and deformed under the coverage of the destructive flames, like a rotten apple.

Li Yao felt that his soul was going to be burnt to ash like the core of a burning apple.

The picture. The picture that he would never forget even if he was burnt to ashes. He had seen it before. He had seen it somewhere before. Yes. It was the ‘Earth in the Face’ in the uncanny dream!

At this moment, Li Yao could not tell which was the real Earth or the ‘original Earth’, and which was the illusionary Earth or the ‘derived Earth’.

The destructive solar storm swept over everything, but it also provided tremendous impetus for the migration fleet. The golden sails of the immigration fleet, having absorbed enough energy from the sun and accelerated by the gravity slingshots, marched out of the solar system like an arrow released from a bow, leaving their destroyed homes and countless innocent souls behind.

“Goodbye, Earth.”

“Here we come, the universe!”

Li Yao saw that, on many immigration starships, the fat heads of the rich and powerful were smoking cigars, sipping red wine, laughing, patting their bellies, and declaring their ambitions.

Then, he saw Wan Zanghai standing on the bridge of a starship, with most of his face hidden in darkness, looking lonely and depressed What happened next was beyond Li Yao’s wildest dreams.

Seeing that the five hundred immigration starships had escaped the range of the solar storm and were even accelerated by the solar storm and the gravity slingshot, the speed of the five hundred immigration starships was about to soar to the maximum, and they entered the stable and safe cruising state.

Most of the starships, more than four hundred of them, had exploded!

The scale of the explosion was not large enough to damage the overall structure and propulsion system of the starship, but it was enough to destroy all the life-support systems inside the starship and burn out the oxygen so that the passengers, be they hibernating or celebrating, would be killed instantly.

The picture switched to the inside of the starships that had exploded. The ‘escape party’ that had been singing and dancing a moment ago was now a burning hell. The rich and powerful who had survived the disaster were either riddled with holes, with broken limbs flying everywhere, turned into dancing candles by the unstoppable flames, or held their throats so hard that the corners of their mouths were almost torn apart, only to find that they could not breathe any precious oxygen.

Very soon, the artificial gravity field was gone. The bodies of the nobles and the rich were floating in the cold and silent space. They did not know what had happened even until their death. Their bulging eyes were full of confusion and fear, as if their starship had been assaulted by the ghosts from Earth. Of course, some of the rich and powerful had already considered the possibility of being hit by meteoroids or other natural disasters during their voyages. They had specially installed ‘safety rooms’ for their starships and put on their spacesuits in time.

However, it was useless.

When the flames and the fog gradually dispersed, what appeared in front of them were the hideous-looking Radiators, the mutants, and the sharpest blades made of minerals from Earth.
