Chapter 2060 Extreme Evolution!

Inside the hibernation capsule of Jingle Bell, the stealth exploration starship of the Star Glory Federation, on the ninth satellite of the fifth planet in the Martial Meritocrats Sector…

Hiss!

Li Yao leapt up from the hibernation capsule, breathing in the recycled air so deeply that Jingle Bell was almost absorbed into a vacuum.

Enjoying the both familiar and strange feeling when air entered the windpipe and expanded the lung lobes, Li Yao finally confirmed that his soul had returned to his body.

“It truly feels weird to look at my body again after my soul has been out of the body for such a long time.”

Half narrowing his eyes, Li Yao warmed up his fingers somewhat sluggishly and sensed the rhythm of his veins, muscle fibers, and nerve endings with a lot of mysterious and indescribable feelings.

After breaking into the Divinity Transformation Stage, the fleshly body would no longer be one’s sole reliance but only a rather important and unique ‘tool’. The path to a brand-new life form had been completely paved through!

“Above the Divinity Transformation Stage, it is the ‘Divinity Branching Stage’, where I can split the soul into thousands of parts and control all of them at the same time. One single person will be a whole army. What an amazing and enticing level it is!

“Before the ‘Divinity Branching Stage’, there are even more bizarre and incredible levels. Some can even travel in the four-dimensional space and swim across the sea of stars without any protection. It is almost like a myth. I wonder if it is true.

“Just let me keep on training until the end of my line. Let’s see what my limits are when I finally collapse in the end!”

Li Yao was more excited and enthusiastic than ever.

However, a burning feeling of drought came over from his brain.

Ugly spots were also appearing on his fingers, hands, and arms, and his body was withering and disintegrating at a visible rate.

Li Yao was alarmed, knowing that the body that had been well scourged by radiation would not last long.

In the meantime, if he could be refilled with abundant resources so that his collapsed body could be completely reconstructed and upgraded, it would be possible for him to enter the ultimate levels beyond the middle level of the Divinity Transformation Stage.

With a telepathic thought, thousands of spiritual threads spread out from his pores and retrieved all the broken Cosmos Rings, which revolved around him like shooting stars.

Inside the tiny storage cabin of Neltharion was a Cosmos Ring that he had looted from the Immortal Cultivator Wei Xiaotian. The Cosmos Ring stored the flaw detector from Xiahou Wuxin that boasted the function of high-molecular layer-by-layer scanning and a microscopic carver of mystic rays after his modification. After they were connected, the device more or less had the ability to repair the crystal chips on the molecular level.

Li Yao took out the ugly scanning and maintenance device that he had thrown together with all the parts exposed to the air. Calming himself down, he placed the first damaged Cosmos Ring on the octagonal platform at the center and inputted a stream of spiritual energy to activate the equipment.

Instantly, almost a hundred bright gold electric arcs thinner than a hair were triggered around the device, which lifted the Cosmos Rings like the hands of elves. Several of the electric arcs submerged into the complicated crystal chip groups on the surface of the Cosmos Ring.

Li Yao’s eyes were half closed, but his eyeballs were shaking. Sweat the size of beans was leaking out of his forehead, and the steam around his body seemed to be foretelling a volcanic eruption. That indicated that his brain was in the middle of the extreme functioning state.

Twenty minutes later, he released a mouthful of air with a confident smile on his face.

Picking up the Cosmos Ring with three fingers, he blew at it softly before activating the release rune array of the Cosmos Ring with a telepathic thought. Ripples spread out in midair, and high-energy nutrition drugs and medical drugs as high as a hill immediately appeared before him.

Li Yao whistled in a low voice. Baring his white teeth, he poured a can of high-energy nutrition drugs into his throat ravenously. Squeaky sounds as if ice had been poured into melted steel immediately echoed from his abdomen. Every muscle, every vein, every nerve, and every cell in his body was shrieking in hunger and thirst.

After chugging almost twenty cans of high-energy nutrition drugs, Li Yao finally felt that his starved body had been somewhat comforted.

The first Cosmos Ring was only meant to test the performance of the high-molecular layer-by-layer detector and maintainer. The job was much easier after that. Li Yao spent three hours fixing all the Cosmos Rings. Except for the Cosmos Rings that stored the crystal suits, the weapons and ammunition, and the Colossus, he took out all the Cosmos Rings and retrieved all the edible nutrition drugs, medical drugs, and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in them, which were piled up into an enormous mountain.

“Are you really going to swallow such a mountain?” The mental devil’s voice was rather shaky. “Isn’t this a bit too much?”

“Of course it is too much. How else can I show the demeanor of a Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator?”

Recalling the biting and mauling of the sinners in the Land of Sins in the oceans of blood like hungry dogs, the valiant sacrifices of the resistance warriors of Starlight, and how hilarious the Immortal Cultivators thought them to be, Li Yao felt that infinite fury was rolling up in his chest and turning into appetite. “I am going to blow up the heads of a lot of people in the next couple of days. How can I beat anybody up without a full belly?

“Han Te, Liu Li, Fist King, Xiahou Wuxin, Xin Xiaoqi, Zuo Jingyun, all the fellow Cultivators of Starlight who are fooled, and everybody in the Land of Sins… Just wait for me. I’ll be back soon!”

Clenching his fists, Li Yao bellowed and jumped at the mountain, with a beast-like hunger beaming out of his eyes!

An hour later, at the bottom of the deepest fold on the ninth satellite of the fifth planet of the Martial Meritocrats Sector, a very strange creature showed up.

His body size had expanded to almost five meters tall. His flesh had withered and ulcerated, but new bones, veins, nerves, and muscles were growing nonstop. Visible flames of spiritual energy were also flooding out of his veins and surrounded his body like wings, capes, and armor, fluctuating at the same pace as his breath with soul-stirring magic.

It almost felt like a supernova had been embedded into his chest, which was releasing the most violent forces that made him unable to control himself and roar like a primeval beast.

Even the vacuum of silence was almost shaken by his furious roars!

Boom!

Without a crystal suit, without power knuckles, just barehanded, he punched at the deepest part of the fold with his fist that was still growing and bleeding when the skin was torn apart, raising an appalling dust cloud that was similar to a meteor shower. The broken rocks and the dust were all blown away, revealing a crater almost five meters in diameter.

The ‘monster’ did not stop at all but punched as fast as lightning with both fists in turn. His fleshly body was like a super heavy penetrator or a pile hammer of the highest level as he pushed into the crater.

The crater that was almost five meters deep was blown into a vertical tunnel by him. Just like that, he blew all the way into the depths of the ninth satellite several hundred meters from the ground.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After he arrived at the place, the auras from his fists spread out like blossoming flowers, creating an underground space hundreds of meters in diameter in the rocks that were as hard as iron to be his temporary secret residence.

With his surging spiritual energy and the explosions of his soul, his wounds were gradually healed, and his body was constricted and condensed again into what appeared to be made of jade and bronze. The magnificent body was so perfect that even ‘Fist King’ Lei Zonglie’s iron body would have felt dwarfed in front of him.

“This is what a real Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivator should be like! It is much better than the state when my soul was out of my body!”

Li Yao looked at his plump palms in satisfaction and pressed the wall of the cave. After he exerted his strength casually, an enormous trace more than one meter in diameter immediately appeared on the wall without a sound.

“If such a trace is discovered by a civilization that has just sprouted, it will certainly be worshiped as the miracle of a god. No wonder this is called the Divinity Transformation Stage!”

With a telepathic thought, Li Yao’s body turned into a streak of brilliance that occupied the entire underground residence in a breath. A hundred and eighty vivid blurred shadows in different forms were condensed in a row in space. Each of the blurred shadows had its own spiritual energy and air and could last for more than three seconds. They were absolutely enough to trick the aiming system of most aggressive magical equipment.

Shua!

He retrieved a Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit from the Cosmos Ring. Instead of putting it on in a hurry, he dismantled the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit into tens of thousands of components by ways of remote manipulation and dissection-like skills. Attaching his telepathic thoughts into it and examining every stroke of the rune arrays on every component, he finally assembled the crystal suit unhurriedly and put it on.

The crystal suit was no longer cold metal but more like his second skin. He could not have felt more relaxed and comfortable.

Shua! Shua! Shua!

With the enhancement of the crystal suit, Li Yao’s speed was accelerated to higher than ever. This time, even the blurred shadows and the streaks of brightness were no longer visible. He seemed to have completely vanished from the cave, but the dents on the wall that were caused by his brute punches were disappearing and paved at a visible speed, until the wall became as smooth as a mirror as if it had been polished carefully with a quickly-rotating grinding wheel!

When Li Yao stopped at the center of the cave, it had already become a flawless, absolutely perfect sphere.

If other civilizations were to find the cave billions of years later, they would certainly be astounded and exclaim in disbelief.

Li Yao chuckled and touched the most important Cosmos Ring, which stored his old friend Little Black and the Tartarean Skeleton, a Colossus dating back to the primeval era!

“The lowest level to make use of a Colossus is the Nascent Soul Stage. The higher one’s level is, the more likely it will be to unlock the new techniques and moves of the Colossus. Now that I have ascended to the Divinity Transformation Stage from the Nascent Soul Stage, what kind of surprises can you bring to me, Little Black and Tartarean Skeleton?”

Li Yao licked his lips and raised his fist that was wearing the Cosmos Ring, clenching it hard!

At first, a stream of black mucus that was as thick as a swamp and as dark as night enshrouded him from head to toe. Then, ripples that ripped apart the three-dimensional space appeared. An enormous shadow more than thirty meters tall, like the most hideous devil in hell, crawled out of the ripples in the middle of the furiously burning flames of revenge!
