"What's going on? Your weapon has this function?"
Looking at the situation on the monitor, Aozile was somewhat taken aback and contacted Lao Mu.
"What nonsense are you spouting? We've been to war before, when have you ever seen anything like this?"
Lao Mu also somewhat surprised, but he did not stop what he was doing. Instead, he immediately ordered the Star Destroyer's Intelligent Brain to continue firing.
Since this strange situation wasn't triggered by them, it can only mean that there's something on this planet that they haven't noticed.
However, Lao Mu believed that whatever it was, once it was under the cover of fire, it had no chance of struggling.
The giant warship gathered its energy once more, and another barrage of light blades swept across the sky, its target still the location of the first light blade.
Li Xingkong spread out his Divine Sense, and he had already sensed the second light blade coming towards him.
With a powerful slam, the first light blade he had been holding was sent flying straight back the way it came.
The two luminous blades collided in space, creating a golden line stretching for tens of kilometers between Venus and the Star Destroyer.
Li Xingkong looked at the enormous warship that had appeared before him. Its style was very peculiar; in Li Xingkong's memory, there was absolutely no such design on Earth Star.
Moreover, judging from the intensity and location of its attack, it is clear that it is currently clashing with the Earth Star People.
Being near Venus, Li Xingkong couldn't detect the current situation on Earth Star, but judging from the intensity of that attack, the other cultivators might not be able to withstand it.
Now that we've already pushed our way to Venus, then we must be thinking about Earth Star...
Li Xingkong's heart sank. The current situation gave him a very bad feeling.
He circulated his Divine Sense, scanning the surface of Venus.
The grand formation continued to operate, but the surface of Venus was already utterly destroyed.
Even the planet's ecosystem, which he had painstakingly restored, now appears to be a complete mess.
The invisible force of disintegration continues to ravage the surface of Venus, preventing the cultivators on Venus from beginning their normal resurrection even after a long time.
All of this, as Li Xingkong witnessed it, undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.
Just because they studied magic for a short while, all of human civilization was wiped out?
This is intolerable.
Li Xingkong clenched his fists, and dozens of magic arrays rapidly spread out from behind him.
Regardless of its origins, it's doomed.
The magic circle expanded rapidly; in just a few breaths, it had grown to the size of half a Venus.
It was none other than the prelude to this spell, which was none other than the Ten Thousand Swords Art that Li Xingkong had been researching for so long.
His long period of research was not without progress; he had essentially mastered the Ten Thousand Swords Art Technique. When he was interrupted, Li Xingkong was conducting further research.
Even basic spells are enough.
As the magic array expanded, Li Xingkong's gaze sharpened, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
Asteroids, space debris, and various pieces of space remnants from the recent battle that were floating around Venus were simultaneously enveloped in a blinding light.
Suddenly, thousands of points of light appeared around Li Xingkong, each one growing larger and longer until it transformed into the structure of a long sword.
Based on the original size of the matter, the transformed swords also varied in size, appearing somewhat uneven.
However, at this moment, Aozile and Lao Mu were clearly not in the mood to make any sarcastic remarks about this.
A large number of ultra-high energy nodes suddenly appeared near that planet, and each node was extremely powerful, so much so that the command center of the star destroyer was almost overwhelmed by the continuous warning sounds.
Red text, red text, and more red text!
Numerous red characters were marked on the warship model inside the command center.
It only issues such a warning when the Star Destroyer detects an attack powerful enough to damage the ship's armor.
Lao Mu hadn't seen these red characters appear since he boarded the ship, so seeing so many all at once left him somewhat bewildered.
"Warning, devastating attack detected. Defensive shields activated at full power."
Before Lao Mu could give the order, the spaceship's Intelligent Brain automatically activated all defenses, and a blue shield quickly covered the entire ship.
Then, all the internal hatches of the Star Destroyer were locked, and the power supply to all non-core compartments was cut off. Several layers of shields also appeared inside the Star Destroyer.
Layer upon layer of isolation effectively protected the core of the Intelligent Brain.
Even Lao Mu and Aozile's protection level is not as high as that of the Intelligent Brain core.
"Holy crap, what's wrong with this Star Destroyer?!"
This was the first time Aozile had ever seen such a scene. He looked at the Lao Mu, Lao Mu also looked stunned.
He'd never even seen Aozile.
No wonder the Intelligent Brain always wanted a share of the profits when he was making his own. Judging from the current situation, the Intelligent Brain is clearly a different kind of life form, and its intelligence is definitely not that simple.
When faced with its own crisis, it clearly prioritizes protecting its own life.
Once the myriad swords had gathered, Li Xingkong pointed, and like a tributary splitting off from the Milky Way, a band of light flowed out in the direction he pointed.
Like a stream, or a venomous snake, thousands of light swords flew out.
Along the way, under the attack of the Star Destroyer, the surviving escort ships were all wiped out by the countless lightsabers, leaving none behind.
Once within the range of Divine Sense, they had no Earthly Capital to hide.
With the aid of the Hexagram, every flying sword under Li Xingkong's command seemed to have a cheat code activated; no matter how the opponent maneuvered and dodged, they couldn't evade the aircraft's attack.
The Hexagram had already calculated their movements perfectly; all their evasions were as if the escort ships were courting death, crashing headlong into the flying sword.
After dealing with the insects, all the flying swords rushed towards the huge warship, crashing headlong into the shields deployed by the warship.
The shield's defensive capabilities were quite strong; when the flying sword collided with it, it only caused ripples in the shield and did not break through it directly.
Only larger lightsabers, upon impact, would dent the shield into the ship's interior, creating a crater on the massive warship's surface as they struck the hull through the shield.
The situation quickly devolved into a war of attrition.
It all comes down to whether Li Xingkong's Magic Power or the giant ship's shield energy can last longer.
"Our energy is being used up too quickly; we can't hold out much longer!"
Li Xingkong's attack caused turmoil throughout the giant ship. Lao Mu and Aozile could only fix themselves in their chairs, and even speaking was affected.
"Find a way to fight back. If we just keep dragging this out, aren't we just waiting to die?"
Lao Mu roared at the Intelligent Brain.
"Their attack will consume more energy than ours. If we hold out a little longer, we can get through this."
The Intelligent Brain's words seemed to be reassuring to the two, and in fact, it was true. It had detected the opponent multiple times, and apart from the visual imaging showing a vague figure, it couldn't detect the person who had made the move, whether through energy detection or other methods.
"Use the planet-destroying cannons! We absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait to die. Even if we have to go to court when we get back, at least we can live a few more days."
Lao Mu's eyes widened as he gave the order.
The Star Destroyer Cannon was too powerful and noisy. Once it was used, almost all the surrounding civilizations could detect it. At that time, whether due to diplomatic pressure or slander from other factions in the empire, he would inevitably have to bear the blame.
But with death looming, there was no time to worry about anything else.
