Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 632: Chapter 631: The Lie of the Qian Desolate Lord

“A pop star is a profession that involves being good at singing and having a lot of people listen to your music…” Qiu Langsha tried his best to explain his past.

“There’s no need to explain that, we understand.”

“Oh, then I’ll continue. Back then, I was giving a concert. It was my tenth-anniversary performance. It was grand and had seen a lot of investments and preparations.”

“I’ll forever remember that night.”

“The whole world was shaking, the ground was cracking open, houses collapsed, the crowd was wailing. It felt like the end of the world.”

The three exchanged glances. It seems there had been a collision between the Eight Desolate World and Qiu Langsha’s world.

The master had indeed deceived them, hiding many things from them.

Claiming they had only bumped into three worlds in six thousand years when in reality, Qiu Langsha’s world was hit a decade ago and now it collided with Jiuzhou.

The frequency of collisions between the Eight Desolate World and other worlds was too high.

Considering the eight masters and a hundred individuals at the Body Integration Realm that they’d encountered on the borders of Jiuzhou.

Qian, the territory master, claimed to have come for aid. But given the ways of the Eight Desolate World, how could they possibly be selfless?

There was a question though, if the Eight Desolate World frequently collided with other worlds, and integrated with them, it should have been much larger by now.

Having surveyed the size of the Eight Desolate World in the Void, it indeed seemed to be the size of three to four combined worlds.

“Several silhouettes appeared in the sky above our planet that were breath-taking. Ideally, with that distance, we shouldn’t have been able to see human figures clearly, yet we could see these figures quite clearly.”

“It felt as though the moment they appeared, they captivated our vision.”

“I saw fighter jets launched into the sky, challenging the silhouettes above. One of them waved their arm and from their sleeve shot a beam, swiping at the jets, blasting them apart.”

“The nation deployed military forces to combat these figures while we were all herded into air-raid shelters.”

“Through the news within the shelter, we learned that the battle situation was not in our favor.”

“These figures were incredibly eerie. None of our attacks had any effect on them. Nuclear weapons, infrasonic weapons… all to no avail.”

“In merely three days, our national defense forces, which we had established to combat potential extraterrestrial enemies, were exhausted entirely, yet the enemy did not suffer the slightest injury.”

“Our armies were completely annihilated. The figures scattered across the world. Those who resisted were killed instantly while those who surrendered were thrown into spherical objects and transported to the Eight Desolate World.”

“On the route, I saw other spherical objects. When these spheres collided and merged, they were filled with people from other planets.”

“I never thought that the first time I would meet extraterrestrials would be inside a cage.”

“Those of us prisoners were randomly scattered across different planets. I was lucky because I had spiritual roots of four types and was chosen by the Black Dragon Territory Master to become a laborer.”

“At first, when I came here, I thought about using my singing to appeal to the sympathies of the sect members until I found out that this was the star domain of the Black Dragon Territory Master, one of the figures.”

“Since then, I completely gave up hope, planning to just live out my life here in drudgery. However, I later discovered that in this sect, from time to time, they would find things from our world. After asking around, I found out that these things were brought back by the sect master.”

He knew he shouldn’t be saying these things to outsiders. This was equivalent to saying that he had a grudge against the Black Dragon Territory Master. Such a reason was enough for him to be executed thousands of times.

And his snooping around the sect master’ comings and goings were also a taboo.

However, as Qiu Langsha spoke more, he became more and more enthusiastic, his voice getting louder, finally breaking down as he ended his explanation.

He felt that these three people were different from other cultivators and could be trusted.

This was an inexplicable kind of trust and Qiu Langsha chose to follow his intuition.

Jiang Li sighed, patted Qiu Langsha on the shoulder and softly said, “We arrived too late.”

Qiu Langsha was so distraught that he could not speak.

Bai Hongtu stood up, “You share a karmic bond with your planet. Let me try and find your world.”

Bai Hongtu wasn’t originally well-versed in the Way of Cause and Effect. He learned it from the Yin Yang Heaven Seal after it had gained spiritual wisdom.

Bai Hongtu recited an obscure spell and manipulated the Way of Cause and Effect to pull out a white thread from within Qiu Langsha, and walked out of the thatched hut and stretched a hand towards the sky, shouting loudly.

“Come!”

A strange thing occurred. The celestial body that appeared like the moon above them stretched out a thread that reached Bai Hongtu’s hand, connecting it with the thread from within Qiu Langsha.

Qiu Langsha couldn’t see the thread in Bai Hongtu’s hands, but when he connected with his home planet, he felt a sense of warmth.

Bai Hongtu pointed towards the celestial body in the sky and said, “Your home planet is approximately seven hundred thousand kilometers from here.”

Qiu Langsha was dumbfounded.

Yu Yin said, “We are not from the Eight Desolate World. We are from another world, the Jiuzhou world.”

“Bai Hongtu and I are at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage while Jiang Li is at the Mahayana Realm.”

“We want to visit your planet. If you’d like, we can take you along.”

“Would you like to go?”

It took a moment for Qiu Langsha to understand the implications of the few sentences that Yu Yin spoke. Then, he promptly nodded his head, “Yes!” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

To the three of them, seven hundred thousand kilometers was but a small leap away. They cloaked Qiu Langsha in a protective shield, took a gentle jump, and landed on Qiu Langsha’s home planet.

“But why is your home planet so close?” Bai Hongtu couldn’t understand.

Neither could Qiu Langsha.

“I have a theory,” said Jiang Li.

“The Territory Master of Qian said that the Eight Desolate World only collided with three worlds, right?”

“Yes.”

“Suppose the Eight Desolate World collided with a world multiples times and integrated with it, would it only be as large as it is now?”

“No.”

“Then is there a possibility that after the Eight Desolate World collides with a world, it could separate the worlds?”

Bai Hongtu opened his eyes wide, “You mean the Eight Desolate World collides with other worlds, moves their planets to its domain, and then separates the worlds?”

“Yes, that’s what I mean.”

Yu Yin was also nodding. Jiang Li’s hypothesis had resolved a doubt in her mind.

“What the Eight Desolate World benefits from other worlds should include not only their planets and people, but also their spiritual energy.”

“Don’t you find it odd that the spiritual energy in the Eight Desolate World is so abundant? According to our records, while there is indeed a lot of spiritual energy in the Eight Desolate World, it is still not equal to that of Jiuzhou.”

“But now, the Eight Desolate World has expanded four times its size, and its spiritual energy concentration did not decrease but instead increased to match that of Jiuzhou.”

“The Eight Desolate World plunders spiritual energy from other worlds and then separates from them, resulting in an increase in its spiritual energy concentration.”

Bai Hongtu nodded, thinking what Yu Yin said was very reasonable.

Jiang Li, however, looked puzzled, “Isn’t energy created from nothing? Why would they need to steal from other worlds?”

Yu Yin rolled her eyes at Jiang Li, “Alright, we know you advanced to the Mahayana stage through the creation of energy from nothing. You don’t need to keep highlighting it.”

Jiang Li wanted to say something more, but then Bai Hongtu said, “Let’s explore this planet. It seems there might still be survivors here.”

Jiang Li was helpless and finally stopped talking.
