Chapter 3222: First Fusion
Li Yao and Teacher Zhang Jiashu once again stared at each other. The air was filled with a subtle and awkward atmosphere.
Thatâs right. Li Yao also didnât know how he had blurted out these words... What the hell is this âBlack Star Emperor Wu Yingqiâs Hairpieceâ? What the hell is this!?
Thatâs right. Of course, Li Yao knew of the character âBlack Star Emperor Wu Yingqiâ. He was a character in the and was the founder of the Imperium of True Human Beings. He should have died a thousand years ago in the timeline of the novel. When several Immortal Cultivators of the Kunlun Chapter had just appeared, it had been mentioned that the Immortal Cultivator Su Changfa had even let the protagonist âCultivator Li Yaoâ enter an illusion and watched the scenes of his rise and rise.
From the novelâs description, this was a sinister, cunning, and ambitious character. According to the authorâs writing style, it was very likely that he would be resurrected later and become the mortal enemy of the protagonist, âCultivator Li Yaoâ. Of course, he would be defeated by the protagonist using hot-bloodedness, seed explosion, breakthrough in battle, and so on. These were all conventional methods, so there was no need to elaborate.
However, what the hell was âBlack Star Emperor Wu Yingqiâs Hairpieceâ? How absurd, shameless, and sordid was the plot of a novel?
Li Yao felt that his outlook on life, his outlook on the world, and his values had collapsed for the second time after they were shattered by Zhang Daniu.
And in the powder, a series of unsightly scenes emerged from the depths of his soul. They were all scenes of Black Star Emperor fighting valiantly against a group of heroes and engaging in a war of attrition. It simply broke the bottom line of all ethics and ethics. It was outrageous to the extreme!
âWhatâwhat is this? Why is there such a thing hidden in the depths of my soul? Ah! Ah! My eyes! My eyes!â
Li Yao was about to go crazy.
He vaguely recalled that this was the price he had to pay in order to defeat a strong enemy in the past. It was a very serious mental trauma, a sequela that no secret technique could eradicate.
âI... No. It was not me. It was the sleazy Cultivator Li Yao. How did he defeat Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi? How sordid, how sordid, and how shameless!
Li Yaoâs face was pale as he clutched his chest. He felt that he was the same as Teacher Zhang Jiashu. His humanity was about to be twisted, and his morals were about to sink!
âWho are you? Who are you exactly? How do you know what I dreamed? Iâve never told anyone such a shameful dream. Never!â
Zhang Jiashu was in a trance again. He stared at Li Yao, with disgust and fear in his eyes. âYouâyou hypnotized me? Why do I find you familiar, and why do I hate you so much? Ah! Ahhhhh! You are not a human being! You are not a human being! You are not a human being!â
He seemed to have seen an incomparably strange scene. His entire body shrunk to a corner as he shivered.
âCalm down, Teacher Zhang. Calm down!â
Taking a deep breath, Li Yao tried to control the situation beyond his control and managed a smile. âWhat did you see exactly? Why did you say that I was not a human being?â
âYou are a bacterium. You are... a virus!â
Zhang Jiashu mumbled to himself, âI saw that your body was covered in... bright gold flagella, and you were waving your hands and waving your arms, ready to attack. What are you exactly? Theseâthese are all illusions, right? Help me get rid of these damn illusions!â
âBacteria, viruses, flagella?â
Li Yao found it harder and harder to understand what Zhang Jiashu was talking about, but in his heart, he didnât hate Zhang Jiashuâs explanation. He thought for a moment and tried to calm himself down. âMaster Zhang, it seems that weâve both encountered some problems. Why donât we work together and explore the mysteries behind the problems? Maybe a new, more beautiful, exciting, and promising world will be opened in front of you?â
âWho the hell wants to explore a new world with you? Itâs all an illusion. You canât fool me!â
Zhang Jiashu suddenly burst into fury. He waved his hands crazily in the air, as if he were trying to tear apart an illusion that did not exist. âWhat are you talking about? What new world? I donât understand and I donât want to understand. I just want to live my own life peacefully and peacefully. Donât bother me. Donât bother me. Get lost. Get lost now!â
âWhat if I told you that such a peaceful, happy life was fake and under someone elseâs control?
Li Yao said, âWhether you like it or not, the storm has arrived, and the gate to a new world has been opened.
While talking, Li Yao took out a pen from his pocket and put it in his palm.
He did not know why he was doing this. An inexplicable urge was controlling him.
Before this, other than his immense strength and soaring computational ability, he had never awakened the ability to manipulate objects remotely.
But when he saw Zhang Jiashu, especially when he shattered the layers of seals with the movie of Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi and blew countless interconnecting gaps on his soul that had been hibernating for a long time, through which the power that could shake the sea of stars surged out and circulated around his body, he suddenly felt that he was omnipotent and could do anything.
Li Yao focused his attention on his palm. From the back of his glabella, where his pineal gland was located, bright golden threads slithered out and wrapped around the pen.
The meditation was as natural as a heartbeat and as easy as breathing.
Pulled by the spiritual threads, the pen floated silently and stopped three inches away from his palm.
âLook.â
Li Yao smiled at Zhang Jiashu.
Zhang Jiashu was dumbfounded and became even more furious. He suddenly pounced over and slapped away the pen on Li Yaoâs palm. He shouted hysterically, âIllusion, magic tricks, magic tricks! Whatâwhat are you trying to do? Are you a counselor or not? I just want to solve the problem. Donât show me these weird things. I want to go back to my old life. I want to change back to myself. I am Zhang Jiashu, the dean of No. 12 High School!â
Li Yao stared at the pen on the ground and sighed. He finally understood what the grey mist lady meant.
It was true that he could not wake someone who was pretending to be asleep. Those who had been reincarnated in the labyrinth of time for too long could not tell who they really were.
Was it wrong that Zhang Jiashu was willing to live a peaceful and happy life?
However, it was unnecessary and unqualified for him to have such precious memories and strength.
Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum!
Li Yao seemed to hear feeble quakes coming from the top and bottom of the â decompression chamberâ. The brainwave interference equipment installed in the mezzanine, or âmagical equipmentâ, mustâve been activated.
In the meantime, Li Yao could clearly see through the âspiritual eyeâ in the middle of his eyebrow that there was indeed a tiny, hot, glittering shard sealed inside Zhang Jiashuâs brain.
The fragment sensed Li Yaoâs existence, too, and became more and more agitated. It was bouncing inside Zhang Jiashuâs brain, trying to crawl out of his glabella.
âAh!â
Zhang Jiashu held his head and cried in pain, âWhat are the pictures, the sounds, and the nonsense?â
Li Yao did not know what it was exactly, either. He felt that it was a small piece of a mirror in which a tiny person was reflecting him.
Just as magnets would attract each other and small magnets would be absorbed by large magnets, Li Yao naturally placed his burning palm on Zhang Jiashuâs forehead.
âAlright. Such strength and the pain and responsibility it brings are indeed too much for you. It was never yours in the first place. Now that you are unwilling to accept it, give it back and let me drive away your pain!â
Li Yao mumbled to himself. His eyes gradually turned transparent, but rainbow colors were blossoming deep inside his eyes.
Looking at his own arm and Zhang Jiashuâs brain with such colorful and splendid eyes, he seemed to be able to see that his countless nerves and veins were all emitting bright gold colors and extending to his palm and his fingertips. Then, he communicated with Zhang Jiashuâs brain and established a stable bridge between his soul and the fingertip buried deep inside Zhang Jiashuâs brain.
The piece that had been bothering Zhang Jiashu for a long time was attracted by the attraction force inside Li Yaoâs body. It entered Li Yaoâs body smoothly through the bridge of nerves and veins and melted into Li Yaoâs brain.
âAHHHHHHHHHHH!â
This time, it was Li Yaoâs turn to let out an unbearable scream. In the blink of an eye, an astronomical amount of information exploded in his soul. Countless near-death flashbacks fell down like a waterfall. He clearly saw many, many things. The Federation, the Imperium, the Sanctuary Alliance, Ding Lingdang, Long Yangjun, Li Jialing, Wu Yingqi, the furiously burning battlefield in the sea of stars, a world made entirely of lightning... Some of it had already been serialized in , and some of it had never been even mentioned!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Li Yao felt that billions of stars were exploding inside his brain. He and Zhang Jiashu were separated by a weird force and hit the wall hard.
...
When Li Yao woke up from his trance again, he found that he had become the protagonist of the â decompression roomâ. He was sitting cross-legged on the sofa in a very comfortable posture. The grey mist lady and a few other awakened Cultivators were looking at him nervously.
Li Yao forced a smile at the grey mist lady and asked, âHow is Teacher Zhang?â
âExcellent. The problems that have been bothering me for days are all gone now. Iâm only a little weak and nauseated right now. Iâll be fine after I refill my glucose and electrolytes.â
The grey mist lady said, âWe are more concerned about you. How do you feel?â
âI...â
Li Yao felt that he had pushed open a door in the depths of his brain. A new world was slowly opening to him. He didnât know how to describe this state, so he simply opened his palm and stared at it.
Hu!
In a moment, a cluster of red flames dashed out of his palm. The flames surged to the sky and condensed into a tiny butterfly, which flapped its wings and tried to fly away.
