Departure

The three-headed Demon Dragon is enormous and extremely resilient; breaking it apart is no easy task.

As a Cultivator, even if it weren't for the tribulation of lightning, Lu Li needed to know, and even experience, the consequences of having his mental image shattered.

So he quickly made a decision to use the Star Alliance Country's nuclear missile to test it out.

Next, Lu Li flew confidently toward the USS Truman aircraft carrier.

He remained outwardly calm, but the Heavenly Eye was constantly monitoring the nuclear bomb.

President Deng Han, 2,000 kilometers away, already had his finger on the button.

He was waiting, waiting for the target to get as close as possible to the nuclear bomb so that it could unleash its full power.

Lu Li cooperated and went directly to the USS Truman aircraft carrier.

Just as his feet touched the splints, Deng Han pressed the nuclear detonation button.

Almost at the same moment, Lu Li suddenly pushed off the deck, causing the entire aircraft carrier to shake, and he flew backward at Mach.

The next second, a terrifying nuclear fireball suddenly erupted and expanded rapidly.

Its expansion speed is also the Mach, similar to Lu Li's, so it can only keep up with him.

Lu Li only stopped 5 kilometers away, at which distance the nuclear bomb posed no threat to him.

But the tests still need to be done. Lu Li raised his hand, manifesting a massive mental image that was 260 meters long and had a wingspan of nearly 600 meters, and said:

"Go ahead, push your limits."

The three annihilated heads roared simultaneously, then resolutely charged towards the nuclear explosion!

Faced with a nuclear bomb with a yield of tens of millions of tons, the entire naval port was almost instantly vaporized, and the buildings on the shore were torn to shreds like paper by the shockwave.

Even the earth seemed to have become made of water, shaking back and forth as it was stirred by the shockwave.

Such devastating power lasted only 5 seconds before the Dark Matter was completely pulverized and dissipated in the overwhelming shockwave.

But it did not die, or rather, the concept of "death" does not exist in the mind.

The mind is Lu Li's "true self," a part of consciousness.

As long as Lu Li lives, Xin Xiang will not perish.

However, since the two are one, if their hearts are broken, Lu Li will definitely suffer a backlash!

At that moment, he felt dizzy and had a sharp pain in his head, and blood trickled from his nostril.

"Minor injury."

Lu Li quickly assessed the injury and determined that it was not serious.

Unlike Shen Siyang and others, whose entire being was ruined when their mental energy exploded.

The Lightning Refinement made Lu Li's Divine Soul incredibly strong, even giving it a tangible form, and it was already able to withstand the shattering of his mental form!

At this point, they were truly qualified to undergo the tribulation of lightning.

Lu Li was completely at ease and prepared to return to the other world.

However, something needs to be finished before that can happen.

~~~~~~~~~~

The mushroom cloud that blotted out the sky slowly dissipated, marking the end of an epic nuclear explosion.

Lu Li stood still, closing his eyes to rest, wondering how long it would take for his heart image to regenerate.

But the peace was broken a few minutes later—his phone rang.

Lu Li blinked and connected mentally.

Immediately, a powerful-looking black man with clear eyes came into view; he was none other than the current president of the Star Alliance Country Deng Han.

After a few seconds of eye contact, Deng Han solemnly said:

[In the name of the President of the Star Alliance Country, I demand that you immediately cease all sabotage and hostile actions against our country. Otherwise, we will launch tens of thousands of nuclear warheads, plunging the entire planet into nuclear winter.]

It wasn't unexpected that the Star Alliance Country would use this to extort money.

Lu Li said calmly, "Are you threatening me with the survival of human civilization?"

A civilization without the Star Alliance Country isn't a civilization; its destruction is insignificant.

Deng Han said coldly:

[Furthermore, besides nuclear weapons, our country's controlled biological laboratories will also release viruses. At that time, this planet will die completely, and you will only be able to die alone on it.]

These words are not alarmist. The Star Alliance Country may not be good at much else, but it definitely has the ability to destroy the world.

This was also the last trump card of the Star Alliance Country's upper echelons. Deng Han and others stared intently at Lu Li through the camera, waiting for him to give an explanation.

Lu Li, who was supposed to return to the other world anyway, said:

"I agree to your terms; I will cease attacks on the Star Alliance Country..."

Upon hearing this, President Deng Han's eyes lit up, and the other high-ranking officials off-camera also looked excited!

The Evil Spirit clearly didn't want all of humanity to perish with them! This way, the empire could cling to life and search for a chance to turn things around!

Moreover, it might allow them to further test the limits of Evil Spirit and seek the greatest possible advantage...

President Deng Han forced himself to suppress his excitement and calmly said:

"Mr. Lu Li, you have made a wise choice. I think we still have a lot to discuss."

"There's no need; the ceasefire is only temporary."

Lu Li calmly uttered a shocking statement. "By the time we meet again, nuclear bombs and viruses will be useless."

Upon hearing this, Deng Han and the other high-ranking officials' expressions instantly changed!

This monster disappears and then reappears with greatly increased strength.

This time, they're openly pursuing dark clouds and thunder; who knows how powerful they'll become? They might even break through the limitations of nuclear bombs and viruses!

With his last trump card about to fail, Deng Han panicked and roared:

[Evil Spirit! I command you to commit suicide! Commit suicide immediately! Otherwise, I will launch nuclear missiles and viruses!]

This is crazy and childish. Human civilization is the last lifeline of the Star Alliance Country. Even if Deng Han wants to go crazy, others will not play along, and other countries will not stand idly by.

Lu Li sneered, "Foolish and arrogant, no wonder you lost."

[You son of a bitch! Listen up! I really am going to destroy the world!]

Deng Han's eyes were bloodshot as he growled a threat, like a wild dog cornered.

Lu Li said nonchalantly:

"As long as the planet doesn't explode, I can rebuild civilization. Your threats are useful, but not entirely. Cherish these last moments; we'll meet again soon."

What would happen when they met again was self-evident. Lu Li calmly took to the air and slowly disappeared into the horizon.

Despite successfully driving away the enemy, Deng Han and his high-ranking officials showed no joy, nor did they even breathe a sigh of relief.

Deng Han felt only a deep sense of powerlessness and weakly gave the order:

"Issue a ceasefire immediately, but all strategic Nuclear Submarine and biological laboratories around the world must be on standby 24 hours a day."

Several young staff members hurriedly made arrangements, while the senior officials exchanged glances, their faces revealing undisguised fear and exhaustion.

~~~~~~~~~

Because a nuclear bomb with a yield of ten million tons is no child's play, and everyone knows who it's meant to be used against.

As soon as the Star Alliance Country issued its ceasefire statement, the public immediately guessed the reason behind it.

[The high-yield nuclear weapons didn't work, but Superman still stopped... Did the Star Alliance Country threaten him with the entire Blue Star?]

[That should be the case, otherwise it doesn't make sense.]

[They're just barely clinging to life, about to undergo their tribulation and ascend to immortality. Whether the Star Alliance Country's nuclear weapons will even be of any use then is still uncertain.]

[But what if the Star Alliance Country really do drag Blue Star down with them?]

I still believe more in the power of the gods; the Star Alliance Country has no hope left.

[And then what? What will Lu Li bring to Blue Star?]

No one knows the answer to this question; nobody knows where a god on earth will lead the world.

At this time, Lu Li had already returned to the northern part of the otherworldly Divine Continent.

The wives had already returned to the south, while Lu Li rushed to Tianchi to bring Lingji to Xiao Yu.
