Chapter 1231: 1231
Despite Li Yao, the Fire Ant King, and Professor Mo Xuan's experiences in life-and-death struggles, they were still a bit anxious .
This was the first time that they had ever met the real Immortal Cultivators . Not the counterfeits such as Xiao Xuance and Lu Zui, not the remaining soul such as the star child, but authentic goods from the Imperium of True Human Beings!
"Their spiritual pressure is quite high . Judging from the twisted air around them, they must be very strong . "
"It's hard to say how advanced their crystal suits are, but based on their fabulous and delicate spiritual shields, their control technology of the spiritual force field is definitely more developed than ours . Chances are that any bullets we shoot at them will be blown away or even sent back to us!"
"Li Yao was quite right . Three Immortal Cultivators, with so many Grand Illusionary Soldiers, are too much for the three of us . Even if they cannot defeat us, they will at least have time to retreat into the turtle shell!"
While Li Yao and his companions were whispering to each other, the three Immortal Cultivators in the distance took off their facial covers one after another and revealed their real faces, perhaps because they were confident about their own capability and believed that nothing on the planet, which had been dormant for so long, was a threat to them .
The three Immortal Cultivators were made of two males and a female . The shortest of them was an old man with a wrinkled face, a long hawk nose, and a pair of gloomy eyes . The brawniest of them was a bald, middle-aged man with scars on his face and a mustache that looked like black caterpillars . The youngest of them was a female with a pretty face . She was also the least calm of the three . Looking at the primeval relics around, she was almost bouncing in delight .
The three of them seemed to have just woken up from a prolonged hibernation . Their faces were all a bit pale, but they were reddening at a visible speed .
All the three of them took a deep breath . With fascinated expressions, they floated in midair and patrolled in their new 'territory' while they chatted with each other at ease .
Li Yao and his companions were too far away from them . Not having the courage to eavesdrop on the conversation with their techniques, they could only try to observe the Immortal Cultivators' lips and guessed what they were saying . Because of the angle, they could not see very clearly, and they could only basically get what the strangers were saying after observing intermittently for about twenty minutes .
The female Immortal Cultivator took a long breath at first and said, "It's been a long time since I last breathed such natural air!"
Then, her eyes glowed as she looked at the surroundings . "Exactly like I told you . There's truly something here . A relic of the Pangu civilization! Such a great contribution would even be enough to expiate our past crimes if they were ten times more serious! As long as we deliver the message back to the Imperium, our titles, manors, and slaves will all be given back . We will even get ten times, or even a hundred times, more as reward!"
Of the two male Immortal Cultivators, the scar-faced, bald man who looked like a black tower appeared to be a taciturn one . He often replied with silence when the female companion quacked ten sentences . He was simply scratching his moustache, observing the relic, and nodding in satisfaction . The old man with a wrinkled face, on the other hand, was rolling his cunning eyes all the time . There was no telling what was on his mind, but he was echoing the female Immortal Cultivator .
Their accent was slightly different from the accent of the Heaven's Origin Sector, the Flying Star Sector, or the Blood Demon Sector . It was impossible for Li Yao and his companions to grasp every word .
After observing for a long time, they finally got a general idea from the Immortal Cultivators' conversation . The Immortal Cultivators had committed a certain unpardonable crime in the Imperium of True Human Beings, so they were exiled there to expand the territory for the Imperium as punishment .
They were the only three inside the war base, and they had been hibernating all the time until the mainframe crystal processor of the war base detected the feeble signals from Kunlun and woke them up .
The female Immortal Cultivator seemed to be some sort of 'navigator' . It was at her insistence that they jumped to this place and discovered Kunlun at the cost of their remaining fuel!
"As we expected, the Imperium of True Human Beings has long learned the existence of the relics of the Pangu civilization . After finding this place, they are more excited than surprised!"
"Also, the Imperium of True Human Beings indeed has a slavery system . All three Immortal Cultivators owned a lot of slaves in the past, but the slaves have been divested because of a certain crime they committed . However, if they make great contributions again, the slaves will be given back to them!"
"Super large star beacons must be being built inside their war base . As soon as the star beacons are completed and activated, they will be able to reach out to the expedition army of the Imperium and even allow the expedition army to jump over directly!"
Li Yao and his companions were discussing the solution to the crisis when they sensed sharp pain simultaneously, and their pupils constricted to the minimum!
A shocking scene appeared on the picture sent back by the crystal camera .
The three Immortal Cultivators stopped talking at some point and stared at them warily .
"We've been caught!"
All the three of them were grasped by anxiety . They did not expect the Immortal Cultivators' senses to be so keen . They were not even looking directly at the newcomers and simply observing them through the crystal camera, but they were still noticed!
Shua! Shua! Shua!
The facial covers of the three Immortal Cultivators closed again . The flames of light around them expanded and turned brighter and brighter .
Dozens of Grand Illusionary Soldiers flew toward Li Yao and his companions' shelter in a battle formation .
