I Have A Martial Dao World-Chapter 716 - Heaven never seals off all exits

Chapter 716: Heaven never seals off all exits. Chapter 716: Heaven never seals off all exits. “`

The attacking Zhuge Fu duo were awkwardly frozen in midair, like insects caught by an invisible hand, struggling in vain to break free.

With this move, Lu Yao instantly became the center of attention.

Facing a crowd of astonished gazes, he spoke with a tone of contempt, “Little bugs, end your pointless act.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than he was targeted simultaneously by both factions!

Long Ji reached a consensus with Zhang Yizhi immediately:

[Chairman, there’s something off about this man! Even telekinesis shouldn’t be this terrifyingly powerful! Let’s take him down together and share the stocks equally!]

[Agreed, let’s strike now!]

Following this, the Power Armor squad of the conglomerate and the particle weaponry of the Hover Combat Vehicles began to charge, ready to fire.

But Lu Yao’s eyes suddenly gleamed bright, a “Divine Thought” infused with True Intent of Martial Path surged forth!

Someone immediately cried out in shock, “My Lord! His brainwave frequency has reached 30 gigahertz! That’s a million times that of an ordinary person!”

...

The formidable psychic force overwhelmed the conglomerate’s guards, and the instantaneous surge to tens of thousands of volts caused the internal electronics of the Power Armor to smoke and break down.

The indestructible armor turned into a metallic prison heavy enough to crush those within, leaving the guards paralyzed on the spot.

The Hover Combat Vehicles fared even worse, their engines suddenly extinguished, plummeting towards the ground!

At altitudes of four to five thousand meters, the consequences were all too clear… Explosions echoed from the ground far below.

A few vehicles crashed into the immobile guards of the conglomerate, causing even more casualties and chaos.

Meanwhile, the forces of Long Ji and Zhang Yizhi seized the opportunity to attack mercilessly, colorful particle cannons firing straight at him, reminiscent of a Star Wars battle.

The sublight-speed rays, capable of annihilating any material on a molecular level, only had the effect of a “water gun” when they hit Lu Yao.

The particle cannon blasts scattered upon contact with his body, and one would almost think they were toy guns if not for the bubbling pits of molten lava they created when hitting the ground.

Amidst the splendid display of lights, Lu Yao’s eyes shone even more brilliantly, his vast psychic power enveloping all those who were still resisting.

In that moment, they all experienced what the Zhuge Fu duo had felt earlier.

First, their bodies were immobilized by a terrifying telekinetic grip, leaving them unable to move.

Following this, the psychic force, as though alive, became countless steel needles that pierced through Force Field Shields and layers of high-tech protection.

Interfering with the body’s electrical signals to induce paralysis, it also swiftly destroyed the internal structure of their cybernetic bodies!

Sparks flew from both sides; whether flesh and blood or mechanical, all became paralyzed.

In the blink of an eye, the entire upper echelon of the conglomerate was subdued. Thirty figures awkwardly floated in midair, lined up as neatly as ducks in a butcher’s shop.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

At that moment, people like Long Ji were filled with horror! The brain of Zhang Yizhi, floating in a tank, bubbled with fine bubbles, clearly agitated.

Their adversary had not moved from the start, merely using his formidable and mysterious psychic power to subdue them!

What an immense cultivation of psychic power it was, the gap between them was akin to heaven and earth!

“When the power isn’t your own, in the end, it still can’t be relied upon.”

Lu Yao shook his head contemptuously, “Your overreliance on external aids is precisely your downfall, you disciples are far inferior to Merlin.”

Outmatched, Zhang Yizhi had no choice but to say, “Mr. Lu, we admit defeat, state your demands!”

Long Ji also tried to maintain her composure, “There may be a misunderstanding between us, please quell your anger!”

Both held onto a sliver of hope, figuring that since Lu Yao hadn’t killed them, he must want something, giving them an opportunity to negotiate.

“`

Lu Yao didn’t rush to speak but instead looked towards the two Zhuge Fu who attacked him first.

These two hastily cried out for mercy, “Spare our lives! We were blind and offended you…”

Before they could finish their sentences, Lu Yao lightly waved his hand, and a terrifying Divine Thought crushed over them like a millstone.

Amid the piercing sound of compression, the two were squashed like insects under a fingertip, instantly turning into a bloody pulp! Their flesh spattered all over the crowd, covering their faces and heads.

Seeing their comrades, who were nearly as strong as themselves, dying so indiscriminately, everyone fell silent as if stricken by the chill of death.

Only then did Lu Yao say, “This act is to remind everyone to cherish life. Now… tell me, where are the higher echelons of the School of Life?”

The group in front of him were all corporate executives, presumably with connections to the School of Life.

Surprisingly, after exchanging glances, Long Ji spoke up:

“Mr. Lu, we are the higher echelons of the School of Life. The school and the corporation are one and the same, with Chairman Zhang Yizhi as the chief of the school.”

Zhang Yizhi also candidly admitted, “I am the school’s chief, doubling as the chairman of the corporation and the head of R&D.”

Lu Yao was somewhat surprised, having thought that these people were just “external elders” responsible for managing the industry, but they turned out to be the “core inheritors.”

If this was the case, the School of Life really seemed to be in decline.

But just then, Lu Yao suddenly thought of something:

“Wait a minute! You’re the head of R&D?”

It was like going to a hospital for hair loss treatment only to find the doctor was also “bald.”

With a “brain in a vat” look, if Zhang Yizhi had the ability, why hadn’t he made a better body for himself?

Lu Yao quickly asked, “Given a soul and spine, can you reverse engineer a perfect body?”

Zhang Yizhi’s brain produced several huge bubbles as he said, “That’s impossible! Crafting a body perfectly fitting a particular soul is within the jurisdiction of a True God!”

Lu Yao, not giving up hope, took out Merlin’s Crystal Card and said to the others:

“If anyone can do it, I will transfer all of Merlin’s privileges to them.”

The people present showed their greed. Even without a 5% share in the corporation, the various privileges and research data alone were a tremendous fortune!

But the two who had exploded were still wet with their bodily fluids, a vivid reminder of the consequences of offending Lu Yao.

For a moment, despite the promise of a substantial reward, there were no takers, and silence reigned.

Lu Yao sighed. Fran was also downhearted, disappointment filling her turquoise eyes.

Zhang Yizhi proposed, “Mr. Lu, if you do not mind, I could help with a consciousness transfer or possession…”

Both options, one leading to a “Consciousness Paradox” and the other not truly counting as living, were perverse and unnatural paths.

Lu Yao irritably said, “Shut up!”

Alongside his words, terrifying mental forces began to press in both the physical and mental realms!

As a “brain in a vat,” Zhang Yizhi seemed especially unable to bear it and couldn’t help but wail in pain.

His Virtual Lover, the blue-haired girl An Ji, suddenly appeared, crying and begging for mercy: “Please stop, Yizhi will die…”

Only then did Lu Yao relax his suppression, allowing Zhang Yizhi to catch his breath.

The feeling of casually controlling the life and death of others made Lu Yao reflect on how the methods of Spirit Refinement were indeed mysterious and domineering. Having broken through the “Law Elemental Spirit,” he could subdue his opponents without moving.

Unfortunately, with Fran’s matter not going as hoped, Lu Yao had no other choice but to set it aside for now and focus his attention on the Dao Lord.

With an indifferent tone, Lu Yao asked a shocking question, “Tell me about the Dao Lord, how can I meet him?”
