Chapter 799 - 799: The Descent of Heaven, The Time of Reincarnation_1
"A tower?"Dongfang Xiang's face wasn't looking very good.
Just yesterday, the world had undergone drastic upheaval. The entire continent had collapsed, and many cave entrances had been torn open.
Because it happened so quickly, the cause of the upheaval remained unclear. However, due to this impact, many things had gone wrong.
But according to scholars' speculation, this impact was not due to a physical structure but a sort of spatial shock. That meant the golden meteorites were not as simple as they seemed; otherwise, this kind of omen would not have appeared.
Today, they finally saw the true essence of the golden meteorites.
They were massive towers that left them speechless.
At this moment, Dongfang Xiang realized that this was not a meteor shower, but rather, a premeditated invasion.
The upheaval from yesterday was just the prelude to the invasion, striking them with the first wave of attacks.
"A giant micro-ecological consciousness? What did it say?" Dongfang Xiang asked.
"We lost contact with it. It was likely seriously damaged in the upheaval yesterday," the secretary immediately responded. "Although the cave world is in a Different Space, it is still within the scope of our world. The force formed by the invisible impact this time covers their space too."
"Get all Cultivator Soldiers to take action and try to stop these invaders," Dongfang Xiang decided, feeling somewhat helpless. They hadn't heard from the giant micro-ecological consciousness since yesterday.
Before he even finished speaking, another tremor rumbled through the ground.
Looking up, four gaping holes had burst open in the sky, and four enormous, bizarre objects were descending from the heavens as if they were a sort of liquid.
Dongfang Xiang wanted to say something, but discovered that the mobile phone in his hand had exploded into a shower of sparks, and other electronic devices were also malfunctioning.
"This... they can actually sever technology?" Dongfang Xiang was no fool. He immediately realized that it was the invaders' doing.
"No, the Energy and Blood Equipments are also showing problems," a bodyguard, who was a Cultivator Soldier, said at once. They could feel a deformity and mutation happening to their Equipments.
They seemed to come alive, constantly contracting or expanding.
"The Equipments are out of control, I can't breathe!"
"My Energy and Blood are seriously disordered, I can't control it!"
A Cultivator Soldier bodyguard said immediately.
As the Great Commander leading the Great Zhao Country, Dongfang Xiang naturally had numerous Cultivator Soldiers as his bodyguards, including ten at the Martial God Level.
But at this moment, they completely lost their combat power and collapsed on the ground.
Dongfang Xiang's face turned grim. The Cultivator Soldiers were the military might of the Great Zhao Country. Although they had other weapons besides the Energy and Blood Equipments, none could compare to the Cultivator Soldiers.
"Damn it, how is this possible..." Dongfang Xiang lost his calm demeanor at this moment.
BOOM!
Another loud noise resounded, and the sky completely ruptured.
Golden towers pierced the sky, falling towards the ground.
Meanwhile, the Energy and Blood Equipments on the Cultivator Soldiers started to go berserk. After this death struggle, all of them suddenly weakened and became feeble.
The Cultivator Soldiers, too, stopped moving without a struggle. Seeing this, Dongfang Xiang almost had a heart attack and vomited blood.
"Quick, get the twelve Martial Sovereigns!" Dongfang Xiang cried out.
"No need, I'm already here," He Bo replied, arriving first. Naturally, he was here to protect Dongfang Xiang.
"He Bo, are you okay?" Dongfang Xiang managed to ask.
"I am not. There's a big problem," He Bo's demeanor wasn't much better. Not only were the Energy and Blood Equipments not functioning properly, but the Martial Artists were also suffering. They were experiencing rampaging Energy and Blood, flesh mutation, and more. Fortunately, due to their years of immersion in Martial Arts, they managed to suppress these issues, even in retirement.
Furthermore, their malnutrition allowed them to suppress these issues immediately.
If not, He Bo wouldn't have survived till now.
The other eleven people did not come; instead, they went to preside over other places.
"COUGH. Let's go quickly. I'll take you away. The inevitable is coming..." He Bo's words were cut off abruptly when a golden light flashed.
"There's no need to leave, you can surrender. We do not kill, nor will we harm your world."
Everyone looked up, only to see a golden giant looming over them.
"Who exactly are you?" He Bo asked immediately, sheltering Dongfang Xiang behind him. It didn't matter if he died, but Dongfang Xiang must not.
"Asking such questions is pointless. This world already belongs to our master."
Upon saying this, the golden giant conjured a unique clock in the vast expanse of the sky, its hands inching towards twelve.
Once the time reached twelve, the concept of world reincarnation would come into play and the world would reset, forcing a complete reformation. Everything would be formatted and reborn.
As for them, they would be consigned to history and cleared away along with their civilization.
"Impossible!" Dongfang Xiang decisively rejected the offer to surrender.
His Human Clan had been unyielding for thousands of years. They had never surrendered, neither to the Alien Race nor the now giant micro-ecological consciousness. They would not start now.
He Bo said nothing; he agreed with Dongfang Xiang.
"We do not care whether you agree or not. Your destruction has nothing to do with you," the Merit Giant said calmly.
They were just a part of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. As long as the Six Paths of Reincarnation successfully loaded into the world, all tasks would be completed.
As for resistance, the world's fragility was comparable to the Chaotic God World. As soon as the Heaven and Man Five Decay enters, the original system and rules would instantly collapse, rendering resistance impossible.
"He Bo, do you think we stand a chance?" Dongfang Xiang quietly asked, his face ghastly pale.
He Bo, however, gave a small shake of his head. "Maybe a Martial God could challenge this giant."
But as for himself, although he remained a Martial Sovereign, he had weakened significantly over the years and was no match for the giant.
At his words, Dongfang Xiang didn't know how to respond.
The Merit Giant overheard their conversation but didn't react, instead opting to sit down in silence without causing any more destruction.
"Can you tell me why you're not acting?" He Bo asked, forcefully rousing his own Energy and Blood.
"I am acting. As long as you do not resist, we will not kill indiscriminately since excessive killing would affect the taste of the civilization our master feeds on," the Merit Giant responded earnestly.
"Feeding on civilization!!!" He Bo was horrified at the sound of these words. He had never even considered that this hidden entity would feed on civilization itself.
Even if in his eyes, civilization was an intangible entity, he feared that it might not be the same in the eyes of the entity.
"Yes, but don't worry. Your Human Clan civilization has a quality that attracts my master. Even if it becomes a forgotten piece of history, it won't need to worry about extinction.
"I will be looking forward to becoming your colleague." The Merit Giant did not attempt to deceive them.
However, his words suggested to He Bo and Dongfang Xiang that they were doomed to a fate worse than death, becoming eternal slaves to this hidden entity and assisting it in the hunting of other civilizations.
"This is impossible, we... we..." He Bo wanted to refute the giant, but he realized that he and his people were not a match for it.
"You might not be willing, but that's not a reason for you to resist. Without enough power, even your world will become part of my master's Six Paths of Reincarnation," the Merit Giant kindly reminded them. "The best thing to do is not resist. Take a good look at your homeland; you might not see it for a long time."
This was psychological murder. They not only wanted their civilization as food and their world as their domain, but also intended to turn all of them into slaves.
"I... wait, why is my Energy and Blood..." He Bo was about to act, but suddenly realized his Energy and Blood had disappeared as if they had never existed.
"As part of the Heaven and Man Five Decay, our ability is to shatter rules and destroy the Transcendental System," the Merit Giant warned once more. "You will probably be granted similar abilities."
At these words, He Bo was stunned. His ability to resist had vanished so easily and quietly. Barely ten minutes had passed since the enemy's arrival, and everything was over.
