Chapter 626 Ethnic Cleansing
In the Dragon Nation’s highest command room, a huge holographic screen was suspended in mid-air, and battle scenes from all over the Blue Star were projected in real time. Every frame was breathtaking.
Representatives from various countries sat in a circle with serious expressions.
The remaining sense of luck was completely shattered as the battle scenes emerged one after another.
The mechanical giants and nano-insect swarms on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are just the beginning.
The Arctic, Antarctic, African jungle, South American rainforest...
Invaders from different cosmic civilizations are pouring into the Blue Planet through twelve cross-border channels, each representing a completely different technology or cultivation system.
Some of them control energy life forms, some control alien creatures, and some even directly use planetary-level weapons for long-range bombing!
“This is not a war.”
"This is ethnic cleansing," a European Union military observer whispered.
"What should we do?" someone asked.
No one answered.
Because everyone knows that there is only one answer.
Fight to the death!
Just then, an emergency communication request popped up in the lower right corner of the screen.
When the scene cuts in, the commander of the Nordic Alliance is roaring:
"They broke through the Scandinavian defenses! Those ghost octopuses can absorb glacial spiritual energy!"
Huo Qinghuang narrowed her eyes slightly and casually called up the satellite image of the Arctic Circle.
Dozens of ghost-like octopuses were seen tumbling in the ice sea. Wherever their tentacles reached, the thousand-year-old glaciers melted at a speed visible to the naked eye and were converted into energy to drive them.
These octopuses are transparent throughout, with light blue liquid energy flowing inside, as if they are something between biotechnology and psychic power.
"This is 'Tide Reaper'."
Huo Qinghuang's voice was as cold as the polar wind. "This creature specializes in absorbing water-based spiritual energy to survive."
She swiped her finger and the scene switched to the South Pacific.
An island is sinking in the picture.
The culprit is the metal ring hovering in the sky. The red beam it releases is like a greedy tongue, licking every inch of land on the island.
"Spiritual Vein Extractor."
Huo Qinghuang explained, "Three days ago, the spiritual vein nodes under Easter Island were completely drained, and all the Moai statues on the island were turned into powder."
Ivanov, the Russian representative, slammed the table and stood up: "What do these interstellar bandits want? If they want to occupy the earth, why do they specifically target the spiritual veins?"
The command room suddenly lit up red and the communicator was automatically connected.
Ao Jiu's projection appeared in mid-air. He had just returned from the lunar orbit, and there was still cosmic dust on his golden dragon robe.
The most striking thing was his eyes, with a strange blue light flickering in his pupils, which was a sign of close contact with high concentrations of cosmic radiation.
However, these are not worth mentioning to Ao Jiu and cannot cause any harm to him at all.
He blinked and his eyes returned to normal.
"Because they don't care about the Earth itself."
Ao Jiu's voice came through the holographic projection, with an unreal metallic texture.
He raised his hand and projected an image.
In the pitch-black space, the main ship of the Interstellar Alliance was like a dormant giant beast, with a strangely shaped cannon slowly extending from the bow.
"Earth-wave shock cannon," Ao Jiu pointed at the weapon, "Twelve hours ago, they conducted a test firing in the Mariana Trench."
The scene switched, and a scarlet beam of light pierced through the clouds and hit the sea.
Deep beneath the sea, the earth's crust cracked like fragile glass. Countless golden threads emerged from the cracks, weaving into a huge net in the darkness.
"The spirit vein has revealed itself..."
Huo Qinghuang murmured.
“That’s not all.”
Ao Jiu enlarged the image, "Look at these readings. They are measuring the energy dissipation rate when the spirit vein is broken."
French representative Claire suddenly covered her mouth: "Oh my God, they are calculating how much spiritual energy they can recover after completely destroying the earth!"
The command room fell into silence.
The ice cultivators of the Antarctic delegation unconsciously formed frost flowers all over their bodies, reflecting the shock in their hearts.
Golden flames ignited in Huo Qinghuang's phoenix eyes: "To be precise, they are testing how to efficiently extract the 'Earth Core Fire'."
"Earth Core Fire?"
Representatives from various countries spoke in unison.
Ao Jiu's projection walked to the holographic earth model and pointed his finger at the core of the earth.
"The core of the earth is not simply lava, but a ball of original true fire that has existed since the beginning of creation. We call it the core fire. All spirit veins are extensions of it."
He called up a set of data: "According to this prince's investigation, the Interstellar Alliance comes from the Andromeda Galaxy, and the spiritual energy of their mother star has been exhausted for ten thousand years.
Over the years, they have been plundering planets with cultivation civilizations and extracting "star cores" to continue their own civilization. "
"So, the Earth is just..."
Powell, the Eagle Country representative, said in a trembling voice, "Just another gas station for them?"
Huo Qinghuang suddenly turned around, and his cyan robe raised a sharp arc: "No, we are different."
According to the ancient stele found by Ao Jiu on the moon, the fire in the earth's core was left behind during the chaotic period when Pangu created the world, and it contains energy at the level of creation. "
She waved her hand and unfolded a star map with dozens of red dots marked on it: "These are the planets destroyed by them. But the Earth..."
Her finger stopped at the blue dot. "It is the only planet that has a complete ancient formation to protect it."
"The Great Zhou Tian Xing Dou Formation."
Ao Jiu took over the conversation and projected a photo of the back of the moon.
Ancient runes can be vaguely seen on the crater walls, forming a complex array.
The Indian representative suddenly stood up and said, "Could the 'divine weapon' mentioned in the Mahabharata be..."
"Ancient cultivation civilization's defense system against alien invaders."
Huo Qinghuang nodded, "But now the formation is incomplete, and it requires at least thirty-six Spiritualization Stage cultivators to activate the key nodes at the same time."
Representatives from various countries looked at each other in bewilderment.
There are no more than ten cultivators in the God Transformation Stage on Earth today.
The Nordic Alliance's emergency communication came on again, and the screen was full of explosions.
"The Tide Reapers are moving towards Greenland! Their target is the Polar Spiritual Vein Hub!"
Huo Qinghuang and Ao Jiu exchanged glances.
Ao Jiu's eyes glowed with gold: "It's too late. They have already started the prelude to the 'Earth Piercing' operation."
The holographic screen suddenly sounded an alarm, and seven red dots lit up in the deep Pacific Ocean, forming a regular hexagon.
"Six-in-one Soul Locking Formation!"
Huo Qinghuang's expression changed slightly, "They want to stabilize the earth's crust to facilitate the extraction of the core fire!"
"How much time do we have?"
Ivanov asked in a deep voice.
Ao Jiu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Seventy-two hours at most. But there is bad news."
He called up the latest scan map. "The main ship is charging and preparing to attack the main node of the spiritual vein under Yellowstone Park. It leads directly to the mantle. Once it is penetrated..."
"The Nordic continent will disintegrate within twelve hours."
Huo Qinghuang took over his words and turned to the representatives of various countries, "There are only two choices now: activate the Zhoutian Xingdou Great Array, or..."
"Or what?" Claire demanded.
Ao Jiu's projection suddenly flickered, and his body in the lunar orbit had obviously encountered interference.
Before the signal was cut off, his last words made everyone's blood freeze:
"Or find the legendary Heaven-Repairing Stone and restart the complete Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array. But according to records, the Heaven-Repairing Stone is in the center of the Earth's core fire."
