Inner Strife
Lu Li's statue is a standing figure, holding the Kunlun Mirror in his right hand and a yin-yang symbol in his left, representing the power of a black hole.
Every single hair and every piece of clothing has been meticulously polished, making it incredibly exquisite and magnificent!
Its altitude reaches 12,742 kilometers, which is exactly equal to the diameter of Blue Star.
Standing majestically in space at this moment, it is truly a cosmic "spectacle"!
Priest Wujin was very satisfied and immediately led his people to kneel and pray before the statue of the god.
Pilgrims of other races followed suit, kneeling down in droves.
They kowtowed frantically before Lu Li's statue, shouting prayers as if possessed.
Meanwhile, those on Blue Star were completely dumbfounded... An alien fleet came all the way to the Solar System just to do this?
Erect a statue of Lu Li, then kneel and worship him?
Could an intelligent race with interstellar travel capabilities, a highly advanced civilization, really be so barbaric and ignorant?
If it were only one or two, it could be explained by ignorance.
But at this moment, a full billion extraterrestrial pilgrims used the most primitive methods to create a cosmic spectacle.
Furthermore, through manual calculations, the spectacle achieved gravitational equilibrium with the Solar System, standing steadily on the outer edge of the Heliosphere, moving along with the galaxy.
How could such a large number of extraterrestrial intelligent species, with such capabilities, be fools?
They were not ignorant, but rather filled with heartfelt worship and reverence.
At this moment, all aspects of Blue Star suddenly realized that their previous understanding of Lu Li was too superficial, especially on a cosmic level.
His power, the significance of his existence, and his importance to civilization seem to be far greater than imagined...
Regardless, the people of Xia Country were quite at ease, since Lu Shen was on their side.
However, the atmosphere was a bit tense on the "Free Human Alliance" side.
The alien army, which we saw as a beacon of hope, turned out to be there specifically to fawn over Lu Li...
The foreign executives suddenly felt like clowns, both ridiculous and desperate.
The towering statue further signifies an incomparably magnificent new era.
The opportunities and benefits involved are so exciting that just thinking about them is thrilling!
But in reality, they were completely excluded, and many people's mental state collapsed.
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, Speaker Nasuk coughed and said:
"It seems we need to change our strategy... Seek effective communication with Miss Teresa and get her to influence Lu Li."
Teresa was also white, so it was best for her to step forward.
But by now, all these countries had tried everything, and Teresa had never paid any attention.
Nasuk essentially spouted a bunch of nonsense, and he kept rambling on and on:
"Do everything possible to show Lu Li our best side, such as our children, our teenage years, our love..."
"Enough, Nasuk, stop talking!"
Portuguese Prime Minister Sanchez, looking visibly annoyed, shouted:
"Stop with your outdated tricks, we need truly useful strategies."
"Sanchez, watch your words! We're getting through this together!"
"Fuck you for getting through this together!"
Sanchez slammed his tablet on the table, pointed at the Alien Pilgrims performing a ritual on it, and shouted:
"We should have been ushering in a new era of civilization, but it's all ruined! Ruined by your despicable arrogance and biological weapons! You have incurred God's wrath; you are the root of all disasters!"
These words immediately caused an uproar in the room.
"Silence! Silence!"
Nasuk was trying to restore order to the meeting when another political figure suddenly launched an attack.
"I agree with Sanchez."
The president of Sicily, also a Latin American country, shouted:
"You are the root of all disasters. Instead of pushing all this nonsense, you should educate Lu Li about the huge differences between white ethnic groups."
This is a blatant breakdown in relations. Nasuk stared at the two of them and said coldly:
Do you know what you're doing?! You're destroying humanity's last hope!
"On the contrary, Mr. Speaker. We are preserving the flame of civilization, and that is the very meaning of the alliance."
"How can we preserve ourselves, or resort to begging and groveling?"
You'll see soon enough.
The meeting ended in discord, and the internal conflicts within the Free Human Alliance were brought to the forefront.
However, in this situation, it seems that all they can do is engage in verbal sparring.
Unexpectedly, the three countries that had been arguing went to war the very next day.
Panic and despair are the best catalysts for war.
The war rapidly expanded, engulfing the entire continent, and its intensity was considerable.
The foreigners finally managed to acquire some technology from the Fierce Crazy Star, and now they're putting it all to use.
The shells exploded in blue flames, and a single shell could incinerate an entire block—they were clearly plasma bombs.
If things continue like this, they'll probably be digging their own grave.
Lu Li was on Blue Star, so he naturally saw everything, but he was too lazy to care.
The gains from the Spiritual Travel haven't been fully processed yet, and the stability of the "Divine Sense Channel" needs to be monitored. There's no time to worry about the foreigners' lives or deaths.
Even if he had the energy, it would be more sensible to use it on his two beautiful wives.
Wan Qing and Xiao Cha returned together, and at this moment they were fighting with three flying swords and the White Dragon Whip.
Intense friction and collisions accelerate their ascent.
Wan Qing then asked Lu Li, "My lord, do you think I can break through to the Martial Saint?"
Lu Li glanced at it and shook his head, saying:
"In terms of physical strength alone, it's about the same as when Su Qing broke through. It would be better to strengthen it further and strive for a perfect breakthrough."
Wan Qing also followed the path of Spirit Refinement, so she naturally knew what to do; she just wanted to confirm with Lu Li.
At this moment, she obediently replied, "I'll do whatever you say, my lord~"
The girl's charm lay in her obedience, which made Lu Li feel affection for her, and he pulled her into his arms.
Wan Qing proactively placed the pomelo in Lu Li's hand, smiling as she said:
"It's so peaceful here, and it's in my husband's hometown, who knows, maybe I'll even be able to conceive a baby~"
"Then let's give it a try."
Lu Li withdrew his extraordinary power and used his purest flesh and blood to lift Wan Qing up.
"Hey, hey, hey, are you two pretending I don't exist?!"
Xiao Cha exclaimed from the side, "Can we not be so open-minded!"
Wan Qing stuck out her tongue, made a face at Xiao Cha, and then closed her eyes to enjoy herself.
After a long day of stirring up trouble, when it was Xiao Cha's turn to take over, the Alien Pilgrims finished their ritual.
Each of them picked up a rock from the asteroid belt as a souvenir before returning to their warship.
It was clearly time to leave, and the return journey didn't require arduous pilgrimage.
One after another, the warships initiated warp drives and vanished from their original positions in an instant.
Millions of ships vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving only a majestic statue standing tall in the universe.
Wan Qing chuckled, "This statue doesn't capture the most magnificent aspect of my lord. Xiao Cha, don't you think?"
Xiao Cha covered her face and ignored her, but in her heart she completely agreed.
That big pig's trotter is exceptionally talented; he's probably unmatched in the entire universe.
This pilgrimage left behind more than just a cosmic wonder.
Within the spiritual realm, the Kunlun Mirror temporarily ceased its actions, absorbing and storing the golden light of merit amounting to 20 billion units.
