Seeing how Lu Yao easily dealt with one of his companions, the two enemies, filled with extre fear, fled in separate directions, one to the left and one to the right, in a vain attempt to escape the doom that was fast approaching.
The half-human, half-chanical monk's back deford, suddenly sprouting an engine that emitted a tail fla. With a "boom," he broke the sound barrier, putting all his strength into staying alive.
In theory, after consciousness is uploaded, there is no need to care about the physical body; even if it is destroyed, it is just that—destroyed. At worst, one could simply find a new body and download the consciousness back into it.
However, in "Tianyuan Realm," there was an unspoken secret, which was the "Consciousness Paradox"—is the consciousness that is downloaded back truly the original self?
Human consciousness is not information that can be quantified.
Consciousness is the subjective experience that the brain has after processing information. Different brains will have different experiences and outcos, which is the basis of each person's perception of the world.
Once consciousness leaves its original brain and is transferred to a new dium, it will only birth an AI that resembles you, has your mories, and imitates you.
The trench coat clad youth was also well aware of this fact and had no desire to die here. At this mont, he too was fleeing desperately, exerting every ounce of his strength.
His limbs emitted intense blue tail flas, his speed not the least bit slow.
Though his desire to live was strong, having provoked soone who should not have been provoked, his fate was sealed.
Lu Yao first unleashed the "Yin Yang Twin Swords" to chase after the trench coat clad youth; then, with a stomp, he created a deep pit in the grass beneath his feet for leverage, while at the sa ti, his Divine Thought shaped a powerful electromagnetic track that used magnetic slingshot acceleration.
A thick white wave of air exploded around him, and he shot forward with a boom!
The wave of air scraped off a layer of the ground's surface, and he easily reached three tis the speed of sound, overtaking the half-human, half-chanical monk from behind.
The monk knew he could not escape, his eyes split with desperation, and he bellowed, "Six Senses Purifying rit Cannon!"
His chanical "prosthetic arm" instantly split and transford as it recombined into a Plasma Grenade Cannon; a string of Buddhist beads, pulsating with lightning, was loaded into the cannon as cannonballs and fired at Lu Yao with a thunderous blast.
Gloomy blue cannonballs ca towards him, each one with the destructive force comparable to "Primordial Magnetic Divine Thunder."
Lu Yao then struck with the move "Tathagata Divine Palm: Buddha Shakes the Mountains and Rivers."
With True Qi as the core, controlled by Divine Thought, and bolstered by the True Intent of Martial Path, a giant palm more than 10 ters in diater roared forth!
The palm was as large as two trucks side by side, and upon the slightest contact with the plasma cannonballs, the electromagnetic field binding the cannonballs was dispersed by the True Intent of Martial Path, causing all the cannonballs to shatter like soap bubbles, exploding into a bluish fla sea.
The giant palm, unfazed by the sea of fire, continued at undiminished speed, swatting the monk into the ground like a fly.
Although the palm was detached from the body, its force was extrely solid, and it did not create a showy but impractical giant crater. Instead, it left a clear palm impression 20 ters deep.
The monk was pulverized on the spot by this strike, not even leaving behind a trace of debris.
Lu Yao nodded in satisfaction. Strength must be twisted into a single rope to exert greater destructive power; any dispersion was a waste.
After ascending to Martial Saint, not only was his physique stronger, he had also returned to simplicity and truthfulness, with his control of strength refined to perfection.
Next, he turned and flew towards the direction the trench coat clad youth had escaped.
~~~~~~~~
This person was Chen Feng, who was being chased and slashed by the Yin Yang Twin Swords. He didn't even dare to stop and defend himself, only continuing to flee as his trench coat was shredded to pieces.
Suddenly, a loud noise ca from the distance. The avatar of a teammate in the team interface dimd, indicating they had been killed.
From that mont on, the three-person hunting squad was reduced to just himself. And in the re three minutes since eting Lu Yao, the situation had already fallen to this point.
"Damn it! What kind of monster is this! His thods completely counter us!"
As he cursed in rage, Lu Yao, with a montum like thunder, arrived with a bang that made heaven and earth buzz.
Seeing the Yin Yang Twin Swords circling around, Chen Feng knew he couldn't escape and bluntly said, "What do you want to do!"
Lu Yao asked directly, "Do you know Xu Fu?"
Chen Feng's eyes flickered, "I've heard of him, this person once escaped from the hands of a Dao Sovereign."
"And who is this Dao Sovereign?"
An expression of awe appeared on Chen Feng's face, "The Dao Sovereign is the highest-ranked cultivator in the Tianyuan Realm, his consciousness has rged with the world, he shares his lifeti with heaven and earth, immortal and indestructible!"
He then said to Lu Yao, "Extraterrestrial visitor, I admit you are very strong, but you are definitely not a match for the Dao Sovereign! I suggest you leave quickly, let's pretend nothing happened today, how about that?"
Lu Yao smiled and said, "One last question, with such rich spiritual energy in this world, isn't normal cultivation good enough for you? Why turn yourselves into half human, half chanical beings?"
Chen Feng said as if it were only natural:
"Flesh is weak and painful, of course, we must ascend chanically. The physical body is not only cursed with birth, aging, and disease. Moreover, if there are too many cultivators, they will drain the world's resources dry. Only chanical ascension can completely break free from these shackles so that everyone can be as dragons, and the world united!"
Blue Star also had the concept of chanical ascension, which Lu Yao was aware of but didn't quite agree with. At that mont, he shrugged and said, "Alright, I have no more questions, you can go die now."
"Wait a minute!" Chen Feng hastily said, "Don't kill ! I am an Elder of the Turing Sect, if you kill , the Dao Sovereign will definitely not let it go and will certainly pursue you to the world where you co from!"
Lu Yao wondered, "So what, can't you upload consciousness? You still fear death so much."
Chen Feng said with an awkward smile, "The consciousness upload still has so immature aspects..."
"The Consciousness Paradox, right? No wonder you are interested in my divine soul, are you planning to take the path of fusion between the primordial spirit and machinery?"
Lu Yao pierced through the heart of the matter with one sentence and then clenched his fist and said:
"Sorry, although you are now very cooperative, I disliked the way you acted so arrogantly at the beginning, so... I cannot spare your life."
"Damn it! I've already reported the incident, you are certainly going to die..."
Seeing that there was no chance of living, Chen Feng cursed out loud, struggling for the last ti.
From the silver sword box on his back, three Flying Swords flew out, whistling and attacking Lu Yao with a "shoo, shoo, shoo."
"All flash and no substance, rely a facade," Lu Yao said with disdain, as he launched 'Sombre Dragon Clasping Grief', condensed with the True Intent of the Martial Path.
Chen Feng's biological brain instantly calculated all manner of trajectories, only to conclude that no matter how he dodged, the survival rate was still zero.
The numbers appeared in his field of vision in a striking red, and the next mont, his head was blown to pieces by a punch from Lu Yao, revealing the chanically enhanced body sparking with electrical fire.
~~~~~~~~
The brief battle was over, and Lu Yao found a tal ball the size of an egg on the enemy's body. With a light touch, the ball expanded and turned into the "Soul-Imprisoning Urn" from before.
Placing this object into the Space-Ti Bubble, it was ti to harvest the spiritual energy.
Such abundant spiritual energy would be a feast. As for that Dao Sovereign, Lu Yao did not take him too seriously.
The cultivators of this realm had forsaken the essence for the trivial, becoming inferior; they were effortlessly "moved like mountains" by him. It was unlikely that the Dao Sovereign was anything impressive.
At worst, they could have a battle; if he couldn't win, he could always open a door and flee.
As for being pursued to the Divine Land, that would be even better—one could see who was more powerful between him and the Guiyi God.
