Him and their stars.

Chapter 2142 I'm attacking you with everything you have
So, in the end, we still have to take action and see who's the real deal.

Without this development, everyone would be seen as a bunch of hypocritical talkers, which would only add a false ending to this magnificent expedition, and that would be quite unpleasant.

This is a chapter in history.

That being said, it is, after all, fighting against the most powerful psionicist in the known world and the strongest psionicist in the past two centuries. How easy is that?

Yu Lian could now sense that his spirit was gradually sinking deeper and deeper, but it was not dissolving; rather, it was reconnecting with a majestic and vast will.

He also vaguely saw a colossal statue that obscured the entire universe, raising its hand within his field of vision and pressing it down on him as if it were pressing down on a mosquito.

What Mosquito Emperor and Great Creation Palm?

In reality, I am even smaller than a mosquito.

He could not feel the fluctuations of energy, nor the turbulence of shock waves; the only thing he felt was the intense light that dominated his vision.

However, at that moment, Yu Lian felt his spirit was in dire straits. The fortress of will that constantly protected his soul and the source of his consciousness had already been activated, but it was like a castle under siege by a million-strong army, groaning under the unbearable pressure.

The strong barrier formed by that will only showed a tiny gap before Yu Lian felt pain.

He felt as if he had been thrown into the core of a star, enduring an indescribable pressure and burning sensation.

Even at this moment, he still had no subjective will to resist; his mind was as if it had been thrown into the void of absolute zero.

The emperor may have lost his physical body, but he can still use his boundless power to manipulate the spiritual realm and even the realm of rules to crush his prey.
Yu Lian had no doubt that if he wanted, he could even forcibly modify the physical constants within this small space!
...Hmm, am I giving my enemy a dramatic role?

My mind is still quite sharp, isn't it? How could anything be frozen?
Upon thinking about this, he felt as if he had grasped something, and the power that had long been imprinted in his mind began to boil and burn.

The true forms of the spiritual dragon, the psychological dragon, the fantasy dragon, and the imaginary dragon, rose in a sacred posture behind Yu Lian's spiritual fortress and roared towards the golden light that obscured the universe.

The colorless and formless radiance of psychic energy seemed to unleash an endless supernova explosion in the spiritual universe.

However, the dazzling power did not spread outwards, but instead began to converge around his body, then disappeared into the layers of light curtain, leaving a trace of its escape.

The giant seemed to sense anger. The Great Creation Palm, which was almost lowering itself to a lower dimension, transformed into claws and grabbed at the proud, imaginary dragon, as if it were grabbing a noisy goose.

Even the lofty, fantastical dragon appears so weak before the mighty power of the true God.

But has the idol that once ruled the universe been transformed into a giant who wrestles with dragons? Isn't that a decline in status?

In the brief moment between thoughts, the silver imaginary dragon spread its wings that covered the galaxy, let out a silent dragon roar once more, and then charged towards the towering giant.

Yu Lian's consciousness seemed to have crashed into a wall of sighs that appeared simultaneously in reality and illusion. All the exquisite, violent, and unpredictable changes, all the passionate, angry, and fervent wills, were blocked by a deeper force in the realm of reality and spirit.

But at this moment, Yu Lian felt the fragility of this wall.

This is the emperor of the Galactic Empire, but he is not an enemy that I cannot even challenge if I am above his level.

In an instant, his frozen thoughts began to stir again, and physical scenes flooded his vision. He licked his lips and quickly surveyed his surroundings.

The garden remained tranquil, the waterfall still flowed, and the flowers still swayed. However, a fleeting, extremely concentrated power flashed through the air, like the power of a black hole's origin capable of instantly annihilating a fleet, yet condensed to its absolute limit. If one were not a psionicist like Yu Lian, they wouldn't even sense it.

As Yu Lian took a step forward, the power shifted into an unpredictable dimension.

The garden dome located in the Dragon Palace remained completely undamaged.

The golden blades of light from the Earthlings illuminated the tranquil garden.

It was like the blazing sun, or like sunspots under its rays. As the energy blades swirled, the flow of time accelerated a thousandfold. The birth, growth, inheritance, decay, and demise of life all seemed to be contained within this great Dao. The radiant energy harmony scattered iridescent light and shadow throughout the entire space, until finally revealing the outline of the spirit.

"You actually used the weapon I gave you to attack me?" the emperor said, but his voice was devoid of any emotion. However, though his expression remained calm, a subtle surprise was hidden beneath the surface.

But who says that the most primal form of psychic combat doesn't exist?

Yu Lian said, "I am even using the Empire's martial arts to attack you."

The emperor's voice, however, was filled with admiration: "Very good! Lan Jiufeng made the same choice as you. If he had resorted to those fancy tricks, he wouldn't have had this successful sneak attack. I would also despise him."

"The disintegration field of the atomic light spear can only break down matter. Then let me ask you, young man, are the soul and information also matter?"

When did we start discussing physics? No, this isn't even physics anymore, it's become a philosophical question.

“But when the atomic light spear dances with the enhancement of psionic energy, it is enough to shatter the soul.” The emperor made such a comment, and then sighed with great emotion: “This is the ultimate waltz! This is the secret of the Dawn Royal Family! You are not only using our weapons, but also our techniques! I feel as if I am fighting against a junior member of the same race. Yes, a member of the same race who wants to kill me and take over the highest authority.”

The spirit's form swayed slightly, as if it were merely a reflection in the water being stirred by a gentle breeze. Yet, those attacks, powerful enough to shatter the armor of a warship, instantly disintegrated before even touching his body.

The disintegrating energy field wasn't even reduced to harmless elementary particles; it simply ceased to exist, as if it had been digested by space.

However, the dissipation continued to evolve; the psionic energy, wrapped around the spear of light, still circulated its most deadly energies. Within the dome, a faint rumbling sound of air collapsing could be heard, but it vanished just as quickly. Of course, there was also a strange smell, as if the air was being ignited, but that too dissipated in the shortest possible time.

Yu Lian knew that if he let any of his power spill out and harmed the surrounding flowers and plants, it would mean that he was at a disadvantage in this duel.

In the fleeting interplay of light and shadow, the light blade and the spirit body collided, yet there was no ripple whatsoever.

If an outsider were here, they might think that this challenger from Earth was staring blankly at the Emperor's spirit.

“Well done. Of course, I won’t ask how you mastered such a skill. I stored some data in the memory card of this light spear, but it’s far from enough to get you to this level.”

"Yes, I haven't thanked you yet. I compiled those materials into two sets, one for the Spirit Research Association to begin their training, and the other for the Azure Guard to train their troops."

"Since I've given it to you, it's yours. Why would I object? Is it still usable?"

"Everything that has been used is said to be good."

Who can doubt the Galactic Empire and the Dawn Royal Family's accumulation in this area? In any case, the Blue Star Community cannot escape the influence of imperial culture in any aspect, so just silently acknowledge that this is a form of appropriation, and you'll be at peace with it.

Very well, His Majesty the Emperor indeed did not leave any backdoors in the Light. Of course, a supreme ruler who has ruled the universe for two centuries would not resort to such underhanded tactics.

"But what about in a parallel information world? The more mysterious the information obtained from there, the more distorted it becomes. I learned this the hard way when I was young. Oh well, the most important thing is now."

Those eyes, composed of spiritual light, brightened slightly. In an instant, the rotation of all the spiritual light was finally suppressed by the most forceful means. After the light dissipated, Yu Lian, gripping the light spear, took a few steps back to create distance.

“It’s not very meaningful.” He put away the light blade with a regretful expression, stroked the spear shaft which looked like it was forged from fragments of rubies for a while, and then casually tossed it into the pool to the side.

But with a splash, "Lin Guang," who had fought alongside Yu Lian for many years and drunk the blood of countless enemies, fell into the clear water.

There were even a few precious ornamental fish that looked as if they were covered in jewels—it was actually difficult to determine their species—that swayed gracefully as they approached to sniff, and then shook their heads and left.

"You have learned to forget, which is excellent." The emperor's voice was still full of praise, and even had a hint of fervor: "Your understanding of mysteries and reincarnation has reached the deepest level of comprehension. Even the Sword Emperor Resnat at this age has only reached this level."

"What a pity," Yu Lian laughed. "I thought you were going to say that I have already surpassed the age of the previous emperors."

"In terms of military strategy, perseverance, imagination and insight, and the brilliance of idealism, you may have already surpassed all previous emperors," the emperor said.

To be honest, even someone as shameless as Yu Lian would feel a little embarrassed by such praise.

I don't want your praise, you jerk!
Yu Lian shrugged expressionlessly, barely managing to hold back from saying the sentence above.

"But why? Yu Lianqing, why wasn't someone like you born into the Empire?" The Emperor said, "Sixty years ago, I did make a disastrous decision. If I hadn't accepted Earth's independence, you would have been born as an Imperial citizen."
