Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

With the naked eye, the starship was surrounded by a dark ocean. Only the tusks of the starship were shining occasionally. The space ripples from different starships were colliding and interfering with each other, producing glittering illusions.

However, in the world of 'information' and 'data', in Li Yao's perception, the core of the fleet of the Fuxi Clan was a splendid, brilliant, and busy scene.

It was as if… every starship had tumed into a firefly. Billions of fireflies were dancing crazily like headless flies, and the information and data that they transmitted were like colorful halos. The halos, the rays of light, and the waves of light overlapped and swallowed each other, forming a hot porridge of

information.

It was also like… Li Yao had inadvertently entered a sparkling and translucent crystal cave. Every cluster of brilliantly growing crystals had thousands upon thousands of facets, and each section contained a beautiful pattern that had taken billions of years to form.

In the meantime, at the intersection of all the data and information, at the center of the billions of rivers, the amalgamation of information that stored the data of the entire Sanctuary was the 'Ultimate Rescue' in front of them.

The shuttle was getting closer and closer to Ultimate Rescue. The general outline of the flagship of the Fuxi fleet was already vaguely visible.

The super-large starship was even larger than 'Black Swir!', the flagship of the Black Wind Fleet, or the super arsenals of the four electors' families. It was almost as large as a star fortress, and the glamorous flames around it indicated that it boasted a hundred times more agility than a star fortress.

It was square, diamond-shaped, and even looked like a cube, as if the bottom of two pyramids were joined together.

There were not many facilities that looked like turrets on the surface of the shell. However, countless metal rods protruded out, extending countless branches and connecting them. A maze-like framework was established outside the shell.

It was not a warship with high firepower in the first place. Instead, it was a hybrid of a commander warship, a communication warship, and a warship that was engaged in a spiritual energy war. Li Yao estimated that the labyrinth-like framework was the antenna and the Spiritual Nexus enhancement

system that was designed to improve the output and reception efficiency of the warship.

The entire starship was filled with the cold, indifferent, and emotionless style of the Pangu Clan. There were no redundant decorations or patterns at all. It did not even have the battle emblem of the Star Glory Federation. On the contrary, it gave the feeling that it was a building of gods and devils. It was,

like a temple that was floating quietly in the sea of stars, an immortal celestial body made of the magnificent strength of the gods and devils. One could not help but have the urge to worship it.

It was just the feeling of observation.

In the world of information and data, Ultimate Rescue had changed its appearance.

It was the convergence point of countless glittering, surging streams of data. The thousands of starships nearby considered it the destination of all the information. Endless information was transmitted from the starships nearby and from the rear of the Sanctuary Alliance billions of lightyears away to its

depths every second.

The information collided, revolved, melded, split, screened, copied, and pasted, making it no longer look like cold steel and machinery but a living creature.

"Hey, do you have a weird feeling?"

The mental devil asked Li Yao in a low voice, "Do you feel that the entire fleet of the Fuxis, or at least the torrents of information and data released by so many starships, constitute the same thing?

Li Yao asked, "What is it?"

"Brain."

"Feel all the starships nearby," the mental devil said. "Don't you feel that every starship is like a cluster of shining synapses that are releasing electric currents that carry a lot of information? All the electric currents are gathered in the center of the nerves, which is 'Ultimate Rescue'. The entire system is a

super brain that is too enormous to be described in words.

"Now that you mention it…"

Li Yao thought for a moment and said, "The star child from the Imperium of True Human Beings once hijacked the flagship of the six major sects of the Flying Star Sector and modified the mainframe crystal processor of Prairie Fire into his virtual brain, known as the 'star brain'.

"Right now, the information and data exchange between the starships and the flagship of the fleet is indeed similar to the 'star brain'. It is a way to make the best use of bionics, which is more advanced and efficient than the Spiritual Nexus protocols of the Star Glory Federation and the Star Glory

Federation. It is indeed very similar to the thinking pattern of the human brain.

No wonder the five greatest masters of the Holy Alliance can govern the entire 'Swarm Civilization' with the advanced Spiritual Nexus mode. It must be one of the most important legacies of the Pangu Civilization Alliance, the mysteries of the 'Fuxi System'.

"Lwonder if we have the opportunity to hack the 'Fuxi System'.

The mental devil rubbed its hands and said, "If we can hack and control the 'Fuxi System' like 'Devil Mo Xuan' did to the super crystal processors and the war network of the federation, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to take down the Holy Alliance and end the war?"

"AR"

Li Yao asked, "Why do I always feel scared when I hear 'easily'?"

While the two of them were talking to themselves, the shuttle gradually drove into the labyrinth of antennas outside of Ultimate Rescue.

Zi! Zi! Zi! Zi!

The mainframe crystal processor of the shuttle and the units on board, including the crystal processors of all the crew members and even the spider tanks, were all scanned carefully.

Li Yao knew that it was the security monitoring before he entered Ultimate Rescue.

Naturally, he would not be so reckless as to challenge the firewall of the general flagship of the Fuxi fleet right now. Instead, he hid himself inside the crystal processor and compressed his computational ability and soul waves to the minimum, like a set of ordinary data.

Very soon, the scan was completed. A narrow and long gap appeared on the seemingly smooth, flawless shell of Ultimate Rescue. Then, an inexplicable attraction force pulled the shuttle in.

Right now, it was time to sneak into the enemy's heart and take every step carefully.

Li Yao did not dare to be careless. After the shuttle stopped, he followed Chu Zhixiao and pushed the medical cabin of the puppet king out.

The interior of Ultimate Rescue gave him the feeling that it was not a starship but an ancient tomb or a mysterious cave.

As far as their eyes could reach, they were surrounded by the wriggling grey mist. They could not see the dome or the cabin walls, but the blinking runes and marks in the grey mist were guiding them.

If Li Yao's senses were correct, the grey mist should be made of countless kinds of inert gases that could block the soul waves, prevent the enemy from spying, and prevent burning and explosions.

Of course, it also added to the mysteriousness.

'The warriors and priests who occasionally crawled out of the grey mist were all wearing mirrored helmets and seamless armor. Some of them were even wearing coarse grey robes over their armor, making them look like monks who had been training hard.

The four members of the yaksha squad, together with Li Yao, escorted the medical cabin of the puppet king through the grey mist for a long time under their guidance. It was so long that Li Yao even suspected that he had been hit by a mental attack. While he was wondering how such a long, straight

pathway could exist in a starship, vague shadows finally appeared in front of him. Countless priests and warriors whose faces could not be seen clearly gestured for him to stop.

"Major, your mission has been completed."

One of the thousand-people priests and warriors took half a step forward and said coldly, "Next, we will escort the puppet king to meet Master Zhi Shan, while you will undergo a full examination, treatment, and purification. When everything is done, you will meet Master Zhi Shan and claim the glory

that you deserve.

"Now, please follow them to receive treatment!"

A large batch of priests and warriors stabilized Chu Zhixiao and the rest of them. The atmosphere immediately turned sharp.

If it were in the federation or the imperium, such undisguised hostility might have triggered a rebellion.

But in the Sanctuary Alliance, both Chu Zhixiao, Yuan Kou, and Guan Qixing had been 'treated' and 'purified' countless times. The shackles that had been implanted into their souls and their habits made them unable to resist at all. Even Yuan Kou, the most irascible Titan, only shivered and mumbled

something without any sign of struggling.

In the meantime, 'Black Dream' Yun Haixin did not know whether her wife and children were dead or alive. She did not do anything, either. She was like a walking corpse at the mercy of her enemy.

Besides, it was a dark space zone without any resources or light. Where could they run to even if they resisted?

Chu Zhixiao only asked softly, "What about our Spider Tank?"

"The Spider Tank will be sent for full scanning and examination, too.

The priest replied, "If there are no problems, they will naturally be returned to the major."

It seemed to be the only solution.

Chu Zhixiao bent down and knocked on Li Yao's shell.

Her eyes were filled with thousands of words. She seemed to have a lot of questions to ask Li Yao.

But she did not ask the question in the end. Together with the other three members, she was led away by a team of priests and soldiers and soon disappeared in the grey mist.

The remaining priest quickly tapped on his crystal processor and sent a command to Li Yao, the spider tank.

Li Yao knew that it was a command to put the spider tank into the hibernation state. Therefore, he pretended that he was hibernating, too, and extinguished alll the indicator lights around him before he crouched his six limbs like a metal egg.

Of course, his telepathic thoughts were like hungry vipers that could jump up at any moment and invade the crystal suits and even the brains of the priests and soldiers nearby. Then, with their crystal suits and brains as a platform, he would jump into the vast information ocean, the Spiritual Nexus, and

even the depths of the 'Fuxi System'.

However, there was no need to take the risk yet.

"Puppet King—Lu Qingchen, are you really… asleep?"

Before he was carried away, Li Yao gazed at the medical cabin of the puppet king..
