Chapter 963: Wings of the Sky
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The several-thousand-meter water pillar surged into the sky, and the spectacle looked magnificent!
Fang Yuan spotted the blue radiance and became excited. “What… is that?”
“Blue light? It should be the psionic crystal in the mecha’s core reactor,” Huang Tianba said uncertainty. “I’ve watched the senior’s mecha piloting class… it should be this!”
“Wu Wudi said earlier that the star beast king had hidden a top-class mecha. It should be true…” Li He sighed. “He’s already a Nascent Soul cultivator. If he obtains that mecha too, he’ll be even more powerful!”
“Psionic crystal?” Fang Yuan ignored everything else completely as he felt every cell in his body come alive at once. “So, that’s it!”
His goal for dream-traversing this time was to find the material needed for the Heaven Devouring Mystic Technique to break through its bottleneck.
Now, he was reasonably sure that what he needed was the psionic crystal!
“You guys wait here. I’ll be back!”
After saying that, he flew into the sky and rushed toward the water pillar.
In front of the material that could help him break through, the star beast and Wu Wudi meant absolutely nothing! He could kill them with a slap.
“On the surface, I may be at the Golden Core stage, but if I use the full extent of my Demon God power, even half is enough to kill Wu Wudi. After I get what I need, I’ll leave this world. It’ll be worth it if I can do that!”
His eyes sparkled. The closer he got, the more suspicious he was. “There’s something wrong. This aura is far too weak…”
After obtaining the stats window, it had already become one with him over the years. Naturally, his sensitivity with it was very high.
As he approached it, he could see a human-shaped mecha inside the water pillar.
This mecha was about a hundred meters tall. Even after all this time, its armor remained bright. It had a pair of giant wings on its back, and its chest was ripped open, revealing a reactor within. The blue radiance that caught Fang Yuan’s attention emanated from this spot.
“I’ve found the right thing, but the quantity isn’t right. It seems like it’s a thousandth of what I need!”
The stats window’s response left Fang Yuan feeling slightly perplexed.
The psionic crystal within the mecha was only enough for him to increase his progress by 0.0001%!
“This means… I have to obtain a thousand mechas like this one before I can make it to the third level of the Heaven Devouring Mystic Technique?
“In a short amount of time, I don’t think that’s possible! It seems like I’ll have to continue using this identity!”
He gradually retracted his thoughts and began surveying the battlefield.
The current battlefield had split into two sides.
On one side, there was a completely blue star beast with wings and a dragon-like neck. On its back, there was a deep, long wound.
The other side was obviously Wu Wudi.
He stood high in the sky, free and unconstrained. His magical powers and techniques were so astonishing that he was easily suppressing the star beast king.
The star beast king roared ferociously. There was a mysterious white thread that connected it to the wings of the mecha, increasing its strength further.
Without this, Wu Wudi would have taken it down long ago.
“Actually, you’re pretty good. With your star beast body, you managed to obtain some power from the mecha. But that’s all…” Wu Wudi said confidently before suddenly extending his right hand. “Xiantian Qi Capturing Technique!”
A large palm emerged and covered the sky. It grabbed the flying dragon’s neck and twisted it viciously.
Crack! Crack!
Numerous threads broke, and the star beast king’s aura weakened further. The wound on its back ripped open, causing a large amount of blood to flow out.
The two of them did not seem to notice the slowly approaching Fang Yuan.
“Since I’m using Lin Meng’s identity, I have to turn things around reasonably! If I expose my Demon God power and kill everyone, I’ll have a bunch of Undead Immortals coming after me tomorrow. And the day after, the Abominable Lord will receive the news… I should try to avoid this!”
In fact, Fang Yuan had some doubts. He had secretly taken note of the news within the entire Human Alliance, particularly that of on Planet East Dragon, but he had not found any trace of the Abominable Lord.
“From his personality… this is impossible!”
A Demon God’s personality was always ruthless and overbearing, and the Abominable Lord was someone who stole Dao paths and destroyed worlds on a whim.
Furthermore, Fang Yuan guessed that the Abominable Lord had already recovered most of his strength. Even so, he had not made a move yet, which was simply unfathomable.
“However… since he’s not in humanity’s territory, did he arrive at another place in the universe?”
Fang Yuan thought about it and felt that this was a high possibility.
After all, this universe was far too vast.
While deep in thought, he arrived at the bottom of the lake and followed the water pillar’s current up.
“Elemental Magnetism Divine Lightblade!”
All of a sudden, Wu Wudi used yet another magical power. Channeling the power of elemental magnetism, he created a large saber and slashed!
“Roar!” The star beast king cried out loudly, and the remaining threads broke.
The wings on the mecha dimmed, and the faint blue radiance began to fade. A hatch opened.
“Is this… the cockpit?” Fang Yuan’s eyes glowed. “Did this star beast king form a neural connection with the cockpit to obtain a part of its power? Chance!”
He lunged forward without hesitation, turning into a streak of light and bursting into the cockpit.
“Hmm?” Wu Wudi was dumbfounded. “Golden Core cultivator… is it the great commander… No, he’s… Lin Meng!!!”
“Wu Wudi, you couldn’t have imagined this at all, could you? You’re not a true genius!” Fang Yuan’s voice came from the mecha. “Furthermore, I’ve dealt with your subordinates, and the rest will testify against you!”
“In this world… there’s a cultivator who’s more talented than me?”
Wu Wudi’s expression turned serious for the first time. “Lin Meng! Very good. I’ll remember you! Unfortunately, no matter how gifted you are, you’re only at the Golden Core stage. I admit that I misjudged you. You’re much more valuable than Ling Fei’er. How about it? What do you think about joining me? You’ll obtain things you’ve never imagined!”
“Haha, you’re insane! You sent someone to kill me earlier!” Fang Yuan transmitted while starting the mecha.
‘Ding! Pilot detected!’
‘Activating neural connection synchronization!’
‘Beginning self-diagnosis!’
…
After sitting on the reclining chair, Fang Yuan detected a spiritual will connecting with his sea of consciousness, and a mechanical voice appeared.
“As expected of a top-class mecha. It’s operated using a cultivator’s spiritual will, and it’s not complicated at all since the mecha is like another body. Fortunately, it’s like this. Otherwise, if it was like the low-level Gundam series, I wouldn’t be able to operate it!”
“You want to buy time? It’s useless!”
Wu Wudi flicked out Sword Qi, which penetrated the star beast king. “This mecha is almost half-destroyed. Without repairs, how much power do you think you can utilize? That’s why I’m giving you an opportunity. For cultivators at my level, a misunderstanding like this means nothing. As long as you surrender, even this Wings of the Sky can be yours in the future!”
Wu Wudi seemed confident as he maintained his assured tone.
‘Beep, self-diagnosis complete. Primary weapon missing. Secondary weapon damaged: 66%. Armor damaged in twenty-seven places!’
‘Warning! Warning! Core reactor is damaged! Unable to operate normally!’
…
As expected, this mecha was already close to being scrapped. Without a pilot in the mecha, it would be in a horrible state.
However, if its reactor was working and the psionic crystal’s energy had not leaked, there was no way Fang Yuan would have found it.
Furthermore, the star beast king would not have had such a hard time against Wu Wudi.
It was precisely because of this reason that Wu Wudi was so confident.
Fang Yuan commanded directly, “Activate backup energy mode. Main source of energy is me!”
Generally, a mecha pilot was a cultivator. When the situation was urgent, they could use their own spiritual power as energy.
Of course, for a top-class mecha like this, even an Undead Immortal would only be able to hold on for a few minutes. As for Nascent Soul or Soul Transformation cultivators, it could only be used as a last resort.
However, this was entirely effortless for Fang Yuan!
Even if he had only recovered twenty to thirty percent of his Demon God power, it would be enough for the Wings of the Sky for a long time.
‘Ding! Beginning energy absorption!’
‘Wings of the Sky! Activating!!’
The mecha’s feedback came. It vibrated within the water pillar, and its eyes lit up with the blue glow. Its hands extended forth!
Splash!
The water pillar burst open as the Wings of the Sky extended its wings. The moonlight illuminated its body.
“Impossible!” Wu Wudi was thoroughly shocked. “How can it fully activate? Was there a backup energy source?”
After losing his calm, he felt extreme humiliation.
Under the Wings of the Sky’s glow, his display made him look like a clown!
‘Activating holographic environment!’
‘Environmental data feedback… detectors damaged. Feedback rate: 66%!’
‘Expanding psychic shield. Activating energy defense!’
…
All kinds of information constantly came, enough to collapse the sea of consciousness of ordinary low-level cultivators.
Fang Yuan was finally experiencing a top-class mecha, the crystallization of this world’s science and technology, a power comparable to an Undead Immortal!
“With the physical armor and the psychic defense, it can resist immortal techniques and legendary arcane spells, completely protecting the safety of the pilot. Moreover, its weapons can greatly enhance its power further. The Wings of the Sky itself has the power of an Undead Immortal!”
Fang Yuan extended his arm.
Splash!
The giant flying mecha mirrored his movement and grabbed at Wu Wudi.
“Ah! Elemental Magnetism Divine Lightblade!”
Wu Wudi roared, and a magical power flew out, landing on the mecha’s arm. However, it did not even leave a scratch.
“Activate energy cannon!”
Within the mecha’s palm, a cannon appeared and emitted terrifying red energy. It went straight for Wu Wudi at high speed.
Even though the mecha was a hundred meters tall, it was more agile than a cultivator. Every movement gave off an inexplicable thrill.
“Ah! Magical powers accumulate!”
Wu Wudi quickly retreated and used various magical powers together.
He was indeed a peerless genius. In an instant, numerous magical powers unleashed and turned into a magical power beam to intercept the red energy.
Kaboom!
