“Even though this ash land has no spiritual energy, it has a very advanced technological civilization. Mortals can create ‘Divine Fire Source Cores’—which is what nuclear bombs are called.”
Haoyang continued, his tone containing a hint of disdain for humans, but also a hint of worry for this world, “We divine cultivators cannot directly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cultivate in this spiritless land, but we have discovered that the extreme energy produced by nuclear explosions can be converted into the divine power we need through special techniques.”
So, I was assigned here to enslave the people of the Ashlands, forcing them to work day and night to create divine fire cores, and then periodically blow up sacrificial towers to collect nuclear energy and convert it into agricultural resources.”
Hearing that, David’s purple eyes lit up in understanding, followed by a hint of coldness.
He had experienced the ferocity and horror of nuclear power in the ruins of the Seven Star Continent in Twenty-first Heaven, but he had never expected that this power would be targeted by the divine cultivators of Twenty-second Heaven, who used it to enslave humans and seek personal gain.
He asked in a deep voice, “I have also seen traces of nuclear power in the ruins of the Seven Star Continent in the Twenty-first Heaven. How did your divine race control the nuclear power conversion technique? This technique is definitely not something that appeared out of thin air.”
Hearing that, Hao Yang’s expression changed drastically. His previously relaxed attitude instantly stiffened, his lips pressed tightly, and he remained silent.
The technique of converting nuclear energy is the core secret of the Haotian God Clan, which concerns the survival of the entire Twenty-Two Heavens. Even on the verge of death, he would never dare reveal it easily.
If the technique was leaked, not only would he be severely punished by the clan, but the entire Haotian God Clan would probably be in danger.
“What? You won’t tell me?”
David slightly raised his eyebrows, and with a slight movement of his fingertips, the chaotic power locked on Haoyang’s Divine Foundation surged once again, and a faint pain instantly spread, even stronger than before.
Hao Yang trembled, cold sweat rolled down his forehead again, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted. His voice was a little trembling, but extraordinarily firm: “I won’t say a word! This is the most important secret of my Haotian God Clan. Even if you kill me, I will never say a word!”
He paused, as if remembering something, a cruel and threatening glint flashed in his eyes, “Don’t think you can control everything by killing me!”
Tomorrow, the divine envoy sent by the clan will arrive in Ashes to extract the nuclear energy from this sacrifice. If I die, the messenger will sense something is wrong and act. At that time, the entire world of Ashes will be reduced to ashes, and you will not escape death either!
He stared at David sharply, trying to force him to compromise by threatening a life and death situation: “You are just a cultivator who accidentally strayed into this world, why should you become an enemy of my Haotian God Clan?”
“Why don’t we just end it? I can report to the clan and they will provide you with nuclear energy resources, so you can cultivate peacefully in this realm. What do you think?”
Seeing his arrogant yet cowardly appearance, David’s purple eyes remained unmoved, but instead slowly curved into a cold smile.
Having experienced so many trials and hardships, he had seen countless threats and intrigues. How could he possibly be intimidated by such trivial threats?
Moreover, Haoyang had enslaved humans for a thousand years, his hands stained with the blood and tears of many people in Jintu. He deserved to die. The so-called divine envoy was nothing more than another pawn of the Haotian God Clan.
“No need.”
David spoke calmly, his tone firm and unwavering, “Since you refuse to speak, I will not force you. But remember, tomorrow I will let you see for yourself how I destroy the divine envoy you speak of.”
As soon as he finished speaking, David raised his hand and waved it. A purplish-gray chaotic force instantly surged out, turning into invisible chains that tightly bound Hao Yang’s limbs and bones.
These chains were not formed from spiritual power, but rather contained the power of primordial chaos, specifically designed to counter the laws of the gods.
