418: Chapter 419 Tearing apart the quantum core cube, the starry blood egg beneath the mechanical subterranean!

The pure white laboratory emitted a piercing alarm. Red lights flashed frantically.

The white-haired youth lying in the hibernation pod opened his eyes. There were no whites in his eye sockets; they were entirely pitch black. Two streams of green data flashed rapidly within his pupils, pouring down like waterfalls.

"Unknown Divine Soul detected. Eradication program initiated."

The white-haired youth spoke, his voice devoid of any inflection, a completely cold, electronically synthesized sound.

As soon as the words fell, the surrounding pure white walls instantly disintegrated.

This was not a physical collapse. The walls turned into countless lines of green data code, surging toward Su Yang and his group like a tsunami.

The surrounding air turned into translucent green blocks. Reality and virtuality were thoroughly intertwined here.

Chu Ling stepped forward, a deep blue ice sword condensing in her hand. With one swing, cold air overflowed.

As soon as the blade touched the green blocks, the ice sword instantly crumbled into a pile of chaotic numbers and vanished into the air. Spell attacks were completely ineffective.

Mary refused to believe it and flapped her bat wings, rushing forward. Her blood-colored sharp claws lashed out fiercely.

As the tips of her fingers touched the green code, her nails actually began to turn into green pixels, as if they were about to be assimilated by the data. Mary was shocked and quickly pulled her hands back, shaking them desperately.

"Physical attacks can't hit them either! These things have no physical form!" Mary retreated to her original spot, her face full of wariness.

Bai Li quickly waved her round fan. Her purple eyes showed solemnity. Her nine fox tails intertwined in front of her, forming a thick, purple demon energy shield.

The green code struck the purple shield, making a hissing sound. Although the shield blocked the erosion of the code, its thickness was rapidly thinning, and it obviously wouldn't last long.

"The Law of Space here has been completely tampered with. The opponent has pulled us into a data force field. All conventional attacks will be converted into garbled code," Bai Li warned.

Qin Xueji clung tightly to Bai Li's side, her hands clasped, her face pale. Faced with such eerie methods combining high technology and cultivation, her Golden Core Stage cultivation seemed insignificant.

Su Yang stood with his hands in his casual pants pockets, his eyes as calm as water.

Watching the massive green data net closing in on all sides, Su Yang didn't even have the slightest emotional fluctuation.

"Playing with virtual data? Su Yang can even burn the Heavenly Dao, let alone a few lines of broken code."

Su Yang pulled out his right hand, his five fingers suddenly clenching into a fist.

Boom!

Brilliant gold and purple flames instantly enveloped his fist. The Mutated Pure Yang True Fire was mixed with the destructive thunder of the nine heavens thunder marrow.

Thunder was inherently the absolute nemesis of all electronic components. Pure Yang True Fire, moreover, burned away all falsehoods. Facing the massive green data net, Su Yang struck out with a fist.

"Shatter."

The golden fist radiance transformed into a wild dragon of thunder and fire, carrying supreme destructive power as it slammed heavily into the data force field.

A piercing sound of electrical short-circuiting exploded throughout the space.

Upon encountering the Mutated Pure Yang True Fire, the green code, like fine snow under the scorching sun, was instantly burned into clusters of dazzling sparks. The indomitable data force field was smashed open by a single punch, creating a huge vacuum hole.

Thunder arcs spread wildly along the breach, striking all the surrounding green blocks into nothingness. The data stream in the white-haired youth's eyes flowed rapidly, attempting to repair the damaged data force field.

"Still want to repair it? Today, I'll smash the mainframe along with it."

A silver light flashed across Su Yang's brow. The Law of Space of the world king bead descended with a boom.

A massive repulsive force directly tore the remaining data force field apart. The surrounding environment distorted for a moment, reverting back to the original pure white laboratory. The white-haired youth, having lost his force field cover, was exposed before Su Yang.

Su Yang flashed forward like a bolt of golden lightning, instantly crossing a distance of over ten meters. His right hand, like an iron pincer, clamped tightly around the white-haired youth's neck, lifting him into mid-air.

"No matter how massive the data, it ultimately needs a carrier."

The white-haired youth grabbed Su Yang's arm with both hands, attempting to break free. Sharp surgical blades popped out of his ten fingers, frantically cutting at the back of Su Yang's hand. The blades scraped against his skin, only sparking a trail of fire, without leaving even a white mark.

Su Yang's left hand, fingers formed into a blade, stabbed directly into the white-haired youth's chest cavity.

No blood flowed out. The chest cavity was filled with precise, transparent optical cables and a square magic cube flickering with dazzling blue light.

A massive amount of data flowed within the magic cube; it was the central core of the entire Mechanical Divine Kingdom.

Su Yang grabbed the blue magic cube, exerted force from his waist, and pulled hard.

Crack.

All the transparent optical cables were ripped apart. White coolant sprayed everywhere.

Having lost the core magic cube, the green code in the white-haired youth's eye sockets instantly extinguished. His mechanical arms hung down powerlessly, and he completely turned into a lifeless silicone shell. Su Yang casually threw the shell onto the metal floor.

Looking at the glowing blue magic cube in his hand, Su Yang nodded with satisfaction and stored it into the System space.

The piercing alarm in the laboratory stopped abruptly. The red lights extinguished, returning to a soft white light.

With the magic cube taken away, the metal wall at the back of the laboratory emitted a dull mechanical turning sound.

The wall slowly slid open to both sides.

A passage leading deeper underground was revealed. No lighting equipment was installed in the passage, which was pitch black and bottomless.

A strong, foul, fishy stench blew out from the depths of the passage. This smell was completely different from the previous smell of machine oil. It was the pure scent of rotting Yao Beast flesh.

Chu Ling re-condensed an ice-blue longsword, her delicate brows slightly furrowed.

"Beneath the high-tech mechanical base, there's actually the scent of living creatures. The smell of blood is very heavy."

Mary flapped her black bat wings, hovering in mid-air. Smelling the blood, a hint of excitement flashed in her scarlet eyes, but then she became very disgusted.

"Blood is smelly. The things down there must look very unappetizing." Mary curled her lips.

Su Yang put his hands in his casual pants pockets, strode forward with his long legs, and took the lead into the pitch-black passage.

"Whatever it looks like, if it blocks the way, I'll just crush them all." Su Yang's tone was flat.

The passage was very spacious. The walls on both sides were no longer smooth metal, but rough black rock. The surface of the rocks was covered with a layer of sticky, dark red liquid. Stepping on the ground produced a hair-raising squelching sound.

Su Yang flicked a ball of golden flame from his fingertips, which hovered in mid-air to provide light, thoroughly dispelling the surrounding gloom.

After walking down the passage for ten minutes, the view ahead suddenly opened up. A huge underground cavern appeared.

A few dim, old searchlights hung from the ceiling of the cavern. The light barely illuminated the central area.

Right in the center of the cavern, a huge blood-colored nutrient pool had been built. The pool was filled with viscous blood. The blood constantly bubbled. Every time a bubble burst, it released a pungent, foul stench.

At the very center of the blood pool floated a giant meat egg as tall as a three-story building. The surface of the meat egg was covered with thick black blood vessels. The blood vessels pulsed, as if they were living things, frantically absorbing the blood nutrients in the pool.

Thump. Thump.

A dull, powerful heartbeat came from inside the meat egg. Each beat carried a terrifying pressure that shook the Soul. This pressure far exceeded the Early Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage and even carried an aura of the Starry Sky Ancient Race that did not belong to Earth.

"So the Technology Alliance has been secretly incubating an embryo of the Starry Sky Ancient Race deep underground." Bai Li looked at the giant meat egg, her purple eyes showing a hint of surprise.

Qin Xueji clung tightly to Bai Li's side, looking at the constantly beating meat egg, her stomach churning.

Su Yang walked to the edge of the blood pool, his eyes cold.

"Incubating trash. Today, I'll boil this egg."

Su Yang clenched his right fist, and the Pure Yang True Fire instantly ignited. He was just about to strike the meat egg in the center of the blood pool with a punch.

Suddenly, the black blood vessels on the surface of the meat egg contracted violently.

Crack.

A crisp tearing sound rang out.

The top of the huge meat egg was forcibly torn open from the inside by a pair of claws covered in black scales. Viscous green amniotic fluid mixed with blood sprayed out.

A terrifying creature over ten meters tall slowly crawled out of the broken eggshell. The creature was covered in hard black scales. Its head resembled a crocodile, but it had four blood-red eyes. A thick tail covered in bone spurs trailed behind it.

The violent pressure of the Middle Stage of the Soul Transformation Stage swept through the entire underground cavern like a storm. The monster stood in the center of the blood pool, shaking off the mucus from its body. Its four blood eyes instantly locked onto the group on the shore.

"Hunger... need flesh and blood..."

The monster opened its bloody maw, filled with complex fangs, and let out a deafening roar. The sound was like two pieces of steel grinding violently against each other. Its massive body leapt up suddenly, bringing with it a foul-smelling gale, and pounced directly toward Su Yang and his group.
