‘Destroy Earth’ was like an earthshaking super bomb that exploded in the deepest part of Li Yao’s soul.

You’ve got to me kidding me. My destiny was to destroy Earth? What the damn hell?

Li Yao did not want to be dumbfounded because it would make him look stupid, but he could not stop himself from being dumbfounded because the explosive truth was truly most staggering!

Earth, the solar system, and the entire universe before his eyes were shaking hard, like a splendid palace of stars that was going to collapse.

Not good. My mind is disturbed!


Li Yao secretly cried for help.

He had indeed gotten a glimpse at the Divinity Transformation Stage, but he was too stunned by the information about destroying Earth at the last moment to maintain the balance of the ecological system inside his soul.

Li Yao was very clear that if the ‘palace of stars’ completely collapsed and buried his self-awareness inside, he would become mentally deranged, his soul would disperse, and he would be killed in such an ‘apocalypse’, if he were fortunate enough.

If he was less fortunate, there was no telling what kind of creature would crawl out of the debris inside his soul and what terrible things it would do for the mission of destroying Earth!

No. He could not allow such a thing to happen!

Run!

Li Yao’s self-awareness shrieked and began to run away. He fled in panic as quickly as he sank into the deepest part of his soul at the beginning.

Earth, the solar system, the stars, and the entire universe were collapsing and exploding behind him nonstop, blowing him as if he were a dry leaf in a crazy wind that could be caught and ripped into shreds at any point.

Having no time to consider what he might turn into after he went mentally deranged, Li Yao focused his full attention on running, running, and running!

Hiu!


Li Yao’s self-awareness dashed out of the deep, dark crack at the bottom of his soul. Moans and explosions were still echoing from the crack. Black pillars of smoke rose from the crack, trying to snatch him back, and almost caught the tail of his self-awareness many times.

However, he jerked hard, almost ripping his self-awareness apart, and jumped out of the surface of the ocean of his soul, leaving the ‘internal vision state’ and returning to reality!


Not good. Fellow Cultivator Li’s soul is in disorder. He is in great danger!



Fellow Cultivators, let’s help him to stabilize his soul now!



How is it possible? Why is such a powerful force hidden deep inside his soul? What is it—


Li Yao immediately heard the most astonished exclamations from Meng Chixin, Wu Suiyun, Yan Liren, and Master Bitter Cicada. He sensed that four overwhelming forces surged into his body, trying to close the crack in the deepest part of his soul, only to trigger the counterattack of the force deep inside his soul that was even more overwhelming. He also heard the high-energy nutrition liquids extracted from infinite Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures uttering bubbling sounds as if they were boiling. Even the high-pressure cabin made of seven layers of alloys that was as hard as the shell of a starship was squeaking in metal fatigue!


Fellow Cultivators, stay away from me!
Li Yao’s soul trembled violently.
I’m going to explode!


Boom! Boom! Boom!

Before the shivering of the soul died down, the high-pressure cabin whose shell was half a meter thick already had a world-shaking explosion. The nutrition liquids and the spiritual energy spread out overwhelmingly, blowing away the four unparalleled experts, two in the Divinity Transformation Stage and the other two at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, as if they were kites whose strings were severed!

Li Yao was of a mind to express his apology to the four fellow Cultivators.


However, he could barely keep himself safe. While undercurrents were flowing deep inside his soul, the surface of his soul was rife with surging tides and crazy storms.

His self-awareness was like a boat riddled with holes that was struggling in the middle of the tides and the storms, shaking. All he could do was grit his teeth and keep his mind clear.

There was no telling how long passed before the tides and the storms finally died down.

Under the suppression of Li Yao himself and the four experts, the black pillars of smoke condensed by the information of the old days retreated, and the crack deep inside his soul was temporarily under control.

Li Yao could tell that his surroundings were an utter mess. The high-pressure cabin had fallen apart and turned into sharp fragments that stabbed into the walls of the room.

Some of them had even been melted into liquids and did not consolidate again into dim pearls until they were shot into the wall at a high speed.

It was truly an apocalyptic view.

Thankfully, Li Yao had known the danger of entering the Divinity Transformation Stage in the first place. He had deployed defense rune arrays of the highest level outside the cabin, and no staff other than the four unparalleled experts were inside the room offering help. Thus, the loss was kept to the minimum.

Li Yao sensed that tremendous doctors rushed into the room and carried him into the medical cabin, soaking him in cool, comforting medical liquids.

He then slowly examined his brain and the condition of his soul.


Fortunately, he had reacted in time and was not lost in the collapsed palace of his soul, avoiding the worst-case scenario where he was mentally deranged.

On the other hand, the massive blast raised by the collision of the violent force that popped out of the deep crack inside his soul and the suppressing forces from the four unparalleled experts expanded his brain a lot.

The attempt to enter the Divinity Transformation Stage was more of an incomplete success than a failure.

After the examination, Li Yao decided that he was not wounded or left with too many hidden problems. He was finally able to take a breath in relief.

As long as he wanted to, he could wake up by himself at any moment.

But he would rather stay in the medical cabin for a while long to consider some… minor issues while he was floating.


Haha! Hahaha!


The mental devil crawled out of a certain inconspicuous corner and pretended to be utterly shocked. Covering the mouth with its hands, it shrieked aloud,
I did not know that this would be the truth. We are actually the ultimate supervillains who will destroy Earth!


The form of the mental devil had greatly changed. It had secreted and condensed a delicate and hideous bloody armor on the surface of its body, with six pairs of bleeding wings that were enshrouded in black auras. Even two thick, long fiendish horns had protruded out of its head. It was raging and looked ten times eviler than in the past!


Li Yao frowned.
Why are you acting like this?



The mental devil grinned hideously.
This is all thanks to you. Although your attempt to enter the Divinity Transformation Stage was not a complete success, it was not a failure either. Your brain has been further expanded, and your level was slightly upgraded. In the meantime, an overwhelming amount of negative emotions popped up, which were even darker than those from Mo Xuan and Lu Qingchen. After swallowing them, I am naturally stronger than before!



I know that,
Li Yao said.
But you obviously can change your style however you want, can’t you? So, even if you are indeed stronger right now, why do you have to put on six pairs of chicken wings and a pair of bull horns?



Well,
the mental devil replied,
the change of style was mainly meant to build up the atmosphere with consideration to the revelation that we will destroy Earth.


It sniffed and retreated the horn, the wings, and the bloody armor. Sitting down in midair, it held its cheeks and looked at Li Yao solemnly before it went on to comfort him.
I know that you are in too bad a mood to accept everything. But brother, on second thought, this incident is actually quite reasonable although it is outside our expectations!


Li Yao’s eyebrows were furrowed even harder.
Hey, hey, hey. Would you care to explain why it is reasonable at all?



Look. Most of the crises that we have been involved in share something in common. The one who seems righteous, bright, and kind and serves as a representative of justice is always the supervillain in disguise!
the mental devil analyzed carefully.
Also, the brighter, kinder, and more justified they appear and the more enormous power they have, the greater supervillain they will be!


Yan Xibei, Xiao Xuance, Zhou Hengdao, Lu Zui, Extraterrestrial Devil Mo Xuan… Without any exception!


Then, here comes the question. After shattering the schemes of Mo Xuan, Lu Qingchen, and the extraterrestrial devils behind them, unifying the edge of the cosmos, and even having a wife who has been elected as the Speaker of the Federation, who else in the thousands of square lightyears around can possibly be more powerful and righteous than Vulture Li Yao, the dominator of three Sectors and the Black Wind King?


When we entered the Pangu laboratory just now, I thought that there was something wrong with Long Yangjun and that she could prove to be a supervillain later. But on second thought, she did not meet either of the previous two standards.


In terms of image, hers was not very bright in the beginning and had always been ambiguous.


In terms of power, as Lead Eunuch Wang Xi on the surface, she was incomparable to you. Even your little finger was more powerful than her.


Therefore, how could she have been the supervillain? As it turned out, after she confessed her feelings for you, she immediately ran away.



Wait.
Li Yao raised his hands to protest.
What do you mean by ‘confessed her feelings’? She and I are pure friends, nothing more. Besides, she might not be a ‘she’ at all. Chances are that an organ similar to the snake tail of the Nuwa Clan is hidden between her thighs that can be stabbed into the operation holes of the primeval magical equipment in order to activate the devices!



Such details are not important,
the mental devil declared.
What matters is that few people today are qualified to call themselves ‘supervillains’ in front of you, considering your identity and position. Therefore, it should come as no surprise at all that you are the real ultimate supervillain!



No surprise my ass!
Li Yao snorted. Gradually recovering from the initial shock, he crossed his arms and said,
Why do I need to destroy Earth for no good reason? Just because a voice in my head tells me to? Long Yangjun was quite right. Will I simply do as the voice commands like an idiot if the voice asks me to eat sht?


No. I am not going to destroy the funny Earth at all. Besides, I don’t even know where Earth is or if it exists at all!
