Wo Chi Xi Hong Shi
Chapter 15 Primal Lifeform of the Prison Clan
Xu Jingming mobilized the cosmic source power with the Primordial Battle Armor. He felt an endless supply of it. He extended a finger of his right hand, and at the fingertip, an incredibly hot and dazzling ball of light condensed. The cosmic source power it contained was already the limit that Xu Jingming's mind power could constrain. "Go."
With a thought, the ball of light condensed at the fingertip immediately shot out a dazzling beam of light. The beam of light pierced through the starry sky, and only after flying a distance of more than seven million kilometers did it dim and dissipate. "Little Jiu, what do you think of this move?" Xu Jingming asked.
"Master," the No. 9 Primordial Battle Armor AI responded, "Although the battle armor allows you to mobilize a sufficiently vast amount of cosmic source power, your control is too rough and inefficient. The pure power of this move only barely reaches the threshold of the tenth order. In actual combat, any ninth-order source life with a little experience can easily dodge it." Xu Jingming nodded slightly.
With a step, Xu Jingming arrived half a light-year away. Looking at an asteroid in front of him that was five kilometers in diameter, he reached out his hand. Suddenly, strands of multicolored light extended from his hand, and dozens of strands extended thousands of kilometers, completely wrapping the entire asteroid, like a net bag wrapping an apple. *Puchi!*
Dozens of strands instantly sliced through the asteroid. With a large number of spatial cuts intertwined, a small area of space collapsed, causing the entire asteroid to be annihilated and transformed into the purest cosmic source power. The asteroid simply disappeared, leaving not a single speck of dust.
Xu Jingming withdrew the dozens of strands with his left hand and said, "This move should have practical value."
"The weapons condensed by the No. 9 Primordial Battle Armor naturally possess spatial cutting properties. Master can make this move more concealed," Little Jiu suggested.
After all, this set of Primordial Battle Armor had high value even for cosmic legend powerhouses and possessed too many functions. Xu Jingming could only search for the most suitable combat plan for the short term among the dazzling array of functions.
Time passed day by day.
Xu Jingming spent most of his time every day immersed in studying knowledge. The deeper his knowledge accumulation, the more efficiently he could drive the Primordial Battle Armor. He also set aside one or two hours each day to conduct move experiments in a desolate starry sky.
Occasionally, he would also look for some delicacies and fine wines on Jiushui Star, which was his rare enjoyment.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Jingming had been living in seclusion on Jiushui Star for more than half a year. He had not received any news of an attack by the Prison Clan and could only wait patiently.
*****
A flat, dark red cosmic spaceship flew out from a space rippling with waves. "Wormhole traversal completed, target space-time region reached," a gentle voice sounded.
Inside the spaceship's hall.
Stood as many as nineteen figures. They were all tall and burly, with curved horns on their heads and bodies like metal castings. Their eyes were cold as they looked at a distant starry sky outside the spaceship. In the distance was an incredibly brilliant galaxy.
"Ahead is the Ansu Star Alliance of the Tianmang Cosmic Sector." The Prison Clan leader, wearing dark red armor, who was at the head of the nineteen figures, said, "The mission of our detachment is to plunder the Ansu Star Alliance."
The Prison Clan detachment leader turned his head and looked at the eighteen companions: "Same as the old rules, all members act freely! But the time for attacking and plundering must be unified."
"Don't worry."
"We're already familiar with it."
"There are no rookies here; everyone knows the rules." Each of the Prison Clan source lifeforms was very confident.
The Prison Clan leader nodded slightly. "Now, disperse and act!"
Immediately, the many members began to disperse in a very familiar manner. Some acted alone, some acted with five members, and some acted with three members. Everything was entirely voluntary.
The Prison Clan didn't care how these source lifeforms combined into squads; they only cared about the final results!
*Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!*
The nineteen figures were like illusions as they flew out of the spaceship's hull, each standing in the dark void. Among them, the Prison Clan leader waved his hand and put away the dark red spaceship. Immediately afterward, they released a total of nine small spaceships.
"Let's go."
"Let's see who has the bigger spoils when the plundering period ends!"
"Don't die in the hands of weak human source lifeforms."
"Haha, kill, kill, kill!"
The nine Prison Clan spaceships simultaneously initiated wormhole traversal. *Buzz!*
They had all entered the territory of the Ansu Star Alliance.
…
Ansu Star Alliance, Kongyu Star.
Kongyu Star was a very ordinary life planet with a population of more than two billion. Its interstellar trade was also relatively developed, and old cosmic spaceships were parked in the starport. People were working busily as usual.
They didn't know that a small black spaceship had appeared in the solar system. It was a small spaceship only thirty meters long, but Kongyu Star's security system couldn't detect it at all. There was no way; this was a spaceship used by the Prison Clan source lifeforms for plundering and assassination, and it was best at concealing itself.
For these Prison Clan source lifeforms who had infiltrated the human territory, a top-notch small spaceship was the most important thing.
"The spaceship has been completely cooled for a long time, but it's not time to attack yet. This attack time is set a bit late!"
"Don't be anxious!"
"Valuna, you're always so impatient."
Inside the black spaceship were three Prison Clan source lifeforms. They had been plundering human territories together many times and cooperated extremely well. They chatted casually, coldly looking at the distant Kongyu Star, as if looking at prey to be slaughtered.
"Valuna is just saying it; do you think he would dare to disobey the clan's orders?" A slightly short and fat Prison Clan source lifeform laughed, looked at the time, and said, "Almost there, 30, 29, 28, 27…" He was counting down the time. "Exit the spaceship."
The three Prison Clan source lifeforms went outside, and one of them put away the spaceship.
"10, 9, 8, 7…" As the action time approached, the eyes of these three Prison Clan source lifeforms became more excited and expectant. "Go."
The slightly short and fat Prison Clan source lifeform simultaneously grabbed his two companions.
*Buzz!*
The three of them disappeared simultaneously. Almost instantly, they had arrived in the outer space near Kongyu Star. "Weak humans." The tallest Prison Clan source lifeform grinned, smiling happily, and gently flicked his finger!
The more than two billion humans on Kongyu Star, whether they were planetary lifeforms or cosmic lifeforms, had the most fundamental life structures of their bodies flicked. The life structure was very complex to construct, but very simple to destroy.
With this flick!
The more than two billion humans, whether they were working diligently, playing entertainment games, or sleeping soundly, silently and quietly had their bodies completely disintegrated and turned into nothingness. Only countless clothes, decorations, communication tools, etc., fell.
All human life had disappeared, completely wiped out!
Everything else on the entire Kongyu Star was normal, except that the humans were gone.
The three Prison Clan source lifeforms looked down on everything. They were long used to all of this; it was really just a flick of a finger.
"Thirty seconds, we must finish plundering!" the short and fat Prison Clan source lifeform said. "Let's do it."
"Hurry up."
The three Prison Clan source lifeforms acted simultaneously. They had to plunder the spoils as quickly as possible.
"It has been more than 13,000 years since the last attack on Kongyu Star. The wealth of this planet has accumulated again." With a thought, the Prison Clan source lifeforms enveloped the entire life planet. Everything of value on Kongyu Star couldn't escape their detection.
…
At the same time Kongyu Star was attacked, the other eight life planets in the entire Ansu Star Alliance were also attacked simultaneously. The moment they were attacked, these nine areas synchronously transmitted the information about the attack through the 'virtual world network'.
"Nine life planets in the Ansu Star Alliance are simultaneously under attack by Prison Clan source lifeforms." After receiving the information, the Universe Human Alliance's virtual world network immediately issued a mission according to the program. From the attack to the issuance of the mission, the time spent didn't exceed one second.
This was the reaction speed of the virtual world network.
Xu Jingming was sitting in a restaurant, eating mixed noodles and drinking a beverage. His eyes pierced through the obstruction of the walls, watching a group of young men and women inside the Four Seasons Sword Hall practice their swordsmanship seriously. "Young people are really full of vigor," Xu Jingming thought.
In young people, one could see a kind of longing and expectation for the future. Xu Jingming enjoyed eating his noodles.
"Alas, with my ability to travel long distances, I can return to the Milky Way in ten minutes. But I can't go back. This guarding mission has been uneventful for more than half a year, but I can't leave my post for a moment." Xu Jingming was very clear about this.
Why did they let him guard? Wasn't it because the No. 9 Primordial Battle Armor could intercept the Prison Clan source lifeforms faster? What they were contending for was that extremely short time!
"Xu Jingming, please proceed to Kongyu Star immediately and kill the plundering Prison Clan source lifeforms!" An order was instantly sent to Xu Jingming through the virtual world network. 100%
There were still noodles in the bowl, and he still had a drink in his hand, but Xu Jingming's eyes instantly changed. He had been waiting for more than half a year, just waiting for the order to arrive! "Hoo."
Xu Jingming disappeared out of thin air.
"Where is he? Where is he? He hasn't paid yet." A waiter ran over and looked in shock at the spot where Xu Jingming had been sitting in the corner, only to find that he had disappeared. Only the tableware was still there. "Don't worry; Mr. Ming lives in the mansion next door." Another waiter didn't care. The entire Jiushui Star remained as peaceful as ever.
Xu Jingming used the No. 9 Primordial Battle Armor to instantly travel a full 300 million light-years. This was the result of his increasingly familiarizing himself with the Primordial Battle Armor over the past six months, and he had also slightly increased the limit of his long-distance spatial crossings. "Fast, fast." Xu Jingming didn't care about the huge star nearby; he tried his best to stabilize the spatial ripples caused by the 'wormhole traversal'.
After only three seconds, Xu Jingming performed another spatial traversal. *Hua!*
This time, when Xu Jingming descended, he immediately saw the incredibly tiny life planet in the distance. There was an error of about one-third of a light-year.
At such a short distance, there was no need to wait for the space-time to stabilize too much. Xu Jingming waited for only one second before directly arriving within Kongyu Star's atmosphere with a step. "Hmm?"
The three Prison Clan source lifeforms, scattered in different locations on Kongyu Star, simultaneously turned their heads and looked in one direction. There!
Stood a man wearing black robes. He looked like a scholar.
The moment Xu Jingming arrived on Kongyu Star, as a source lifeform, he had sensed every place on the entire planet and understood everything, which also made his face turn slightly pale. "All dead." It was the first time Xu Jingming had experienced such a shock in reality.
He could clearly see that in many families on Kongyu Star, the food was still warm, and next to it were only fallen clothes and socks. He could see that the light screens of many academies were still playing teaching videos, but only clothes and other objects were left in the classrooms. The entire planet was very clean!
The city was well-maintained and had a very strong atmosphere of human life. After all, just over ten seconds ago, more than two billion people were living here. The air still had some of the perfume that people had sprayed. But the people… were all gone.
"Is this the calamity of the Prison Clan source lifeforms descending?" At this moment, Xu Jingming felt anger, heartache, and discomfort… All kinds of feelings welled up in his heart. He really felt heartache, heartache for the countless people, these people also had their own relatives, had their own dreams. But Xu Jingming also knew that the descent of alien source lifeforms was like this; in an instant, it could cause all life on a life planet to be extinguished. This was too common in racial wars. Since he had participated in it, Xu Jingming knew that he would see a lot more in the future, and he had to adapt. He had to harden his heart, calmly face everything, and make the wisest choices. "It's really uncomfortable," Xu Jingming felt very frustrated. This feeling of powerlessness was too uncomfortable!
If the war could be ended and people could all enjoy the sunshine and time to fight for their dreams, how wonderful would that be? But Xu Jingming was very clear!
Even the three Supreme Realm experts couldn't do it! "The human race has experienced several historical discontinuities. The darkness and the massacres at that time were a billion times more terrifying and dark than what's happening on Kongyu Star right now." No matter how powerless, no matter how uncomfortable, no matter how unwilling, he had to face it, face this reality. "Xu Jingming understood at this moment. Sometimes, being able to face reality is a kind of courage."
"Do my best to improve it."
"If I can intercept and kill a Prison Clan source lifeform, I can save ten or a hundred life planets." At this moment, Xu Jingming understood the significance of what he was shouldering even more!
Although Xu Jingming had many thoughts in his mind, only two or three seconds had passed.
*Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!*
The three Prison Clan source lifeforms surrounded Xu Jingming as if they had teleported. "This human came very fast."
"We chose a remote enough location; it was a life planet in the corner of the entire Ansu Star Alliance. He still rushed over so quickly. Could it be that he lives in the surrounding star system?" The three Prison Clan source lifeforms were all staring at Xu Jingming.
"I feel that he should be a ninth-order source lifeform."
"Kill him together within ten seconds."
The three Prison Clan source lifeforms communicated instantly.
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*
The three of them disappeared instantly, and at the same time, three terrifying forces instantly descended within a range of thousands of kilometers around them, naturally enveloping Xu Jingming as well. A life-and-death fight broke out instantly!
