You Have Science, I Have Martial Arts

Chapter 860 - 388: Celestial Sword Unleashed, Doomsday Insect Swarm_2

Livia’s pupils suddenly contracted: "How is this possible..."

Ye Qingzhou didn’t give her time to think.

"Sword Feather Celestial Wings, Wind Rolls up the Clouds."

The light wings behind him suddenly disassembled into three separate combat units.

The first unit dove down like meteors, with a hundred and eighty thousand miniature light sabers precisely piercing through the armor seams of each Blood-Colored Warrior!

The second unit formed a ring defense matrix, blocking the main cannon barrage of six combat vehicles completely!

The third unit directly infiltrated the enemy’s electronic system, altering combat commands!

Boom~

A "Crimson Female Tiger" combat vehicle suddenly turned its cannon around, blasting a nearby friendly vehicle into scrap metal! The internal driver discovered with horror that the control system had been completely hijacked.

"Damn it! It’s a hacker invasion!"

A Blood-Colored Commander roared: "Cut all electronic links, switch to manual operation!"

But it was already too late.

Ye Qingzhou’s silhouette flickered like a phantom through the battlefield, each punch and kick accurately destroying an armored core. The mobility that the Exoskeleton Warriors were proud of appeared like slow-motion replay before him.

Livia could no longer hold back, she leaped off the combat vehicle, and Thorny Whip struck towards Ye Qingzhou like a viper!

Snap~

The whip coiled around Ye Qingzhou’s ankle, and blood energy frantically eroded, attempting to corrupt his flesh.

"Void Melting Furnace, energy reversal."

The chaos core on his chest suddenly lit up, and the blood energy on the Thorny Whip was drawn back in reverse!

Livia let out a muffled groan, her tiger’s mouth cracked, and blood dripped down her wrist.

"You... you possess the Quantum Prediction System of the Celestial Secret Research Institute?!"

She finally realized something, her voice filled with disbelief.

Ye Qingzhou didn’t answer, he merely reached up and grasped her face mask.

"Crack!"

The face mask of the Holy Mark Armor shattered, revealing Livia’s shocked face.

"A descendant of the Seventh Saint King?"

Ye Qingzhou sneered, "That’s all."

When the last combat vehicle turned into a fireball under its self-destruct program, the whole wasteland fell into silence.

The Golden Dragon limped over, looking at the debris scattered all over the ground, muttering: "These armaments... are enough to arm a small country..."

Ye Qingzhou kicked aside an exoskeleton armor that was still twitching, revealing the emblem of the Golden Council engraved inside.

"Military technology from the Western Pole Kingdom, biological enhancements from the Blood Race, and..."

Ye Qingzhou crushed a piece of Blood Crystal underfoot, his eyes flashing coldly, "Blood Golden Talisman Secret Text from the Blood-Colored Sanctuary."

From afar, a barely functional communicator emitted vague orders:

"Saint Ancestor Order... initiate immediately... Doomsday... horn..."

The gunpowder smoke slowly dissipated on the border of Canaan, and remnants of exoskeleton armor lay scattered on the scorched earth. Debris from six "Crimson Bride" combat vehicles continued to burn, as black smoke twisted upward into the blood-colored sky.

The Golden Dragon held a wound on his shoulder, limping to Ye Qingzhou’s side, his eyes still full of lingering fright.

"Brother Ye, these equipment..."

With a cautious gaze, the Golden Dragon kicked a piece of Gauss Rifle wreckage underfoot, his tone mixed with some uncertainty: "Not something ordinary Blood Race could get their hands on."

Ye Qingzhou didn’t answer, his gaze fell on Livia’s shattered combat armor. Among the dark red metal fragments, a faint stream of data still flickered — encrypted communication records.

"Celestial Secret System, decipher."

The gray and white Chaos Dao Pattern flowed from his fingertips into the metal, forcibly decrypting the information within. A few seconds later, a holographic projection appeared:

The Western Pole Kingdom’s arms transaction records...

Golden Council’s fund flows...

And... a three-dimensional blueprint of the Inverted Pyramid

"As expected..." Ye Qingzhou narrowed his eyes, "The Blood Race, Golden Council, Western Pole Military, they’ve long been collaborating in secret."

Just then, the already unconscious Livia suddenly opened her eyes! Her body began to twitch unnaturally, with eerie blood-colored runes appearing under her skin.

"Watch out!" The Golden Dragon shouted, his expression panicked: "It’s the Blood Race Forbidden Technique— ’Blood Source Burst’!"

Ye Qingzhou reacted swiftly, the Sword Scale Emperor Armor instantly covering his body, while he forcefully tugged Golden Dragon backward!

Boom~~

Livia’s body exploded like a bomb, flesh turning into countless tiny blood needles, shooting in all directions!

The ground within a hundred meters was corroded with innumerable holes, even the air was filled with a stench of poisonous mist.

When the smoke cleared, Ye Qingzhou’s Sword Scale Emperor Armor was covered with tiny dents, while Golden Dragon’s face was turning blue, clearly having inhaled a small amount of poisonous mist.

"Cough... this woman... truly insane..."

Golden Dragon coughed up a mouthful of black blood, "She would rather self-destruct than be captured..."

Ye Qingzhou stared at the center of the explosion, where only a crystalline blood-red crystal was left floating mid-air.

He reached out to grab it, the crystal was ice-cold to the touch, with a faint fluid movement inside.

"Blood God Seed..."

His pupils slightly contracted, immediately realizing this wasn’t an ordinary self-destruction, but rather a method for a high-tier Blood Race member to condense their essence into a "seed" at the brink of death, waiting for resurrection.

In the distance, on a sand dune, a shadow quietly retreated. It was a mysterious figure clad in a gray cloak, holding a crystal ball, within which was reflecting the figure of Ye Qingzhou.

"Target confirmed... Celestial Sword Armor’s performance data has been recorded..."

He muttered in a low voice, then crushed the crystal ball, his figure dissipating like smoke.

Golden Dragon swallowed an antitoxic pill, his complexion slightly improving: "Brother Ye, what do we do next?"

Ye Qingzhou put away the blood-colored crystal, his gaze fixed into the depths of Canaan: "To catch the thief, first capture the king; I want to go to the Inverted Pyramid."

"What?"

Golden Dragon was taken aback: "Isn’t that a forbidden area of the Blood Race?"

"Livia’s memory fragments show that it’s the key to the Blood God’s resurrection."

Ye Qingzhou’s voice was icy: "Moreover..."

He raised his hand, a holographic image unfolding in his palm – within the image, the figure of the Emperor Slayer stood atop the Inverted Pyramid, holding a blood-red long sword entwined with black mist.

"There might be clues related to the Emperor Slayer there."

The night wind suddenly rose, lifting sand to veil the moonlight. On the horizon, scarlet gleams were faintly flickering – more Blood-Colored Guards gathering.

Golden Dragon swallowed hard: "How about you go alone? Someone as weak as me, going along would just be a hindrance, dragging you down..."

"I calculated, going with me is nine chances of death, going alone is certain death..."

"Brother Ye, don’t joke like this, I’m scared..."

"I’m not joking, that’s how Heaven’s Will has returned its feedback to me..."

"..."

Golden Dragon was instantly on the verge of crying, feeling utterly unlucky for eight generations, promising himself to check the almanac before going out in the future!

Ye Qingzhou activated the flight module of the Celestial Sword Armor, gray and white light wings unfolding at his back.

"Stay close to me."

"Brother Ye, wait for me!"

The two figures soared into the sky, flying toward the darkest depths of Canaan.

Land of Canaan, Blood God Sanctuary.

This was an inverted pyramid, its internal space defying the laws of physics, countless steps hanging from the dome, blood-colored rivers reversing upwards, converging into the black coffin at the apex.

Tianci knelt on one knee before the altar, his crimson cloak trailing on the ground, voice heavy: "Saint Ancestor, Livia... has fallen."

The figure of the Seventh Saint King Salmas hovered above the coffin, the curse chains entwining him rustling.

Hearing the death of his most cherished descendant, he slowly opened his eyes, his gaze devoid of sorrow or joy: "So?"

Tianci clenched his fist: "After all, she was your direct bloodline, should we perhaps..."

"How is the transformation ritual of the Insect Nest being prepared?"

Salmas interrupted directly, his voice like an icy blade scraping bones.

Tianci’s Adam’s apple moved, speaking with difficulty: "We have captured nine hundred and thirty thousand low-level Blood Race members, but only managed to gather seventy thousand Pure Blood Nobles... do we really need to sacrifice a million of our kin?"

The murals on the pyramid’s walls suddenly came to life, showcasing ancient scenes – the Blood God wielding a sword to sever the Dragon Emperor’s head, countless swarms pouring from the dragon’s corpse, the sky obscured by a crimson insect tide.

"Do you see that?"

Salmas pointed to the murals: "Back then, our lord used the Dragon Emperor’s Blood to create the first generation of insect swarms, nearly destroying the entire world."

His skeletal fingers suddenly clenched tight: "Now we have a more perfect vessel – the Profound Gu!"
