Star Train: Start with the Skyfire Sage

Chapter 502 [Pioneering] Brings the Only Glimmer of Hope; Yao Luo Faces a Desperate Situation

“Absolutely not. The current Onfaros is filled with chaotic data streams from the Great Lord Iron Curtain, and Lady Black Tower and Lord Screw Gumu are using most of their energy to protect Yaoluo. Anyone who enters Onfaros right now is just throwing their life away.”

Himeko was somewhat agitated. This kind of emotion would never normally affect her, but now it was different. If she wasn't careful, she might lose more than one person.

Yao Luo is trapped in Onpharos, his life hanging in the balance. Xiao Sanyue felt unwell after entering Onpharos and was led back to her room by the Black Swan just now. If Xing were to enter Onpharos again for some reason and be unable to come out, Ji Zi could not imagine how heartbroken she would feel.

"Himeko, this isn't like you at all. Think about it carefully. Since Lady Black Tower proposed this plan, there must be a chance of it succeeding, right?" Although Walter was equally anxious, he still maintained basic composure and sought Black Tower's opinion.

The black tower projection fell silent. Indeed, before entering Onfaros, Yao Luo had also considered the possibility that this was a trap aimed at him, and he had already made preparations for the protection of the train crew.

"In fact, Yao Luo had already left a certain contingency plan on your tickets. The light cones contained in the tickets are enough to allow you to maintain yourselves in Onfaros. Of course, this is on the premise that Yao Luo takes on most of the attacks from Onfaros, and given the special nature of the Starry Sky Train, there is only a slight possibility of sending people in."

"The hidden energy source on the back of the train is what we've been saving for this moment, Pam! Passenger Yaoluo, no matter what, you must bring him back!" Pam was also very emotional. As the train conductor of the Starry Sky Train, everyone on the train was extremely important to him.

"I will put all my pioneering spirit into one carriage, and then the train will be able to [pioneering] into any place."

Pam's face showed a determined expression. As someone who had been on the Star Train since the time of Archivist, it knew perfectly well that the miracle called "Pioneering" would definitely be able to break the current situation.

“Okay, it’s settled then. I can go in right away.” Xing immediately took action. All along, she was the one troubling Yao Luo. Now, it was her turn to save Yao Luo.

"Count me in." Behind Xing, Dan Heng followed closely. Although he wasn't good at expressing himself, his concern for his fellow passengers on the train was no less than anyone else's.

"It wouldn't be a perfect expansion without any one of the people missing, right?"

At this moment, everyone on the train was of one mind: to bring Yao Luo out intact!

"Sigh, I hope the worst never happens..." In a corner where no one could see her, Black Tower's expression grew increasingly serious. As she battled the Onfaros firewall, she felt more and more that this being named Laigus was no ordinary person.

It should be noted that because of Yao Luo's infinite space, the computing power of the simulated universe has reached more than seven times the peak computing power of the scepter during the Emperor's War, yet it still cannot completely suppress this Emperor's Scepter.

Moreover, as time went by, the data attacks from the Laigushi side were gradually intensifying, and were already on the verge of breaking through the limits of the simulated universe.

"This is absolutely not normal. This AI called Legus has an extremely profound understanding of the [Scepter], or rather, the computational mode of this simulated Erudite Neural Algorithm. It is not only stronger than me and Screw, but even stronger than Emperor II and Emperor I at the time. The only one who can do this is probably..."

“If Yao Luo still had a messenger-level clone within him, things wouldn’t be so difficult. His control over memory essence is no weaker than anyone else’s. Even Fu Li wouldn’t easily give up on Yao Luo. The place where three destinies intersect, intersect, intersect… Could it be…”

Black Tower's expression immediately turned to shock. She thought of a terrible possibility, and only that could have led Yao Luo into his current predicament.

Looking out the train window at Nanook's magnificent figure, Black Tower sighed:
“Yao Luo, Nanuk might not be the only Star God targeting you…”

Inside Onpharos
Yao Luo stood atop a mountain of corpses, surrounded by a dense pool of golden blood that seemed to transform into a golden river flowing across the earth.

Yao Luo's eyes were cold and ruthless, like a tinderbox that had burned out but still had a few embers. A giant sword resembling the Heavenly Fire Judgment burned in his hand, the black flames incinerating all the gold and blood. A black engraving on the sword, like a wound, gradually engulfed the blade.

Looking up at the sky, the figure of Kefaller was magnificent and awe-inspiring, larger than any mountain. The sphere he carried on his shoulders seemed to represent the entire world. Under normal circumstances, it would surely be an immortal sight, but now…

A giant sword, even larger than Kefal, pierced through Kefal's chest, almost cutting him in half. Upon closer inspection, the design of the giant sword was almost identical to that of the one in Yao Luo's hand.

Around Yaoluo, many warriors charged towards him with complex expressions of fear, anger, and hatred. Among them were enormous giants, warriors clad in Spartan armor, and even some graceful sea monsters.

But no one could get within a hundred meters of Yao Luo. Whether it was the martial arts honed by a warrior throughout his life, the song of a sea monster imbued with the power of the ocean, or even the army of 100,000 soldiers painstakingly assembled by a wise monarch, they were all burned to ashes before they could even reach Yao Luo.

Black flames ignited crimson firewood within. Yao Luo held his sword, but his gaze was fixed on the sky, his eyes filled with a deathly stillness that no one could understand.

That kind of deathly silence, just a glance from it, would send chills down the spine of even the bravest warrior; the more one looked, the more one's mind would descend into madness, unable to extricate oneself.

Rocks hurled by catapults, mixed with kerosene, rained down on Yao Luo. The largest earth beast, clad in massive amounts of explosives, charged toward Yao Luo. The earth, manipulated by members of the Earth Clan, opened a giant maw, attempting to devour Yao Luo. Countless arrows rained down on Yao Luo.

However, all the attacks vanished within a few breaths after entering within a hundred meters of Yaoluo. The nearly thousand-meter-tall earth beast instantly turned into a skeleton, unable to even take a step closer. The explosives on its body also extinguished silently, and the boulder disappeared completely in mid-air like a meteorite.

Only when a figure stood in front of Yao Luo did Yao Luo's gaze, which had been fixed on the sky, finally fall, and the greatsword in his hand finally began to move.

Yao Luo's figure seemed to teleport, and in just a moment, the giant sword pierced into the chest of the person in front of him, and the golden blood turned into flames and began to burn.

Golden flames ignited Yao Luo's entire body, slightly reducing the deathly stillness in his eyes.

The figure, pierced through the chest, pressed its head against Yao Luo's ear, whispering its last words with resentment.

"Yao, Luo, why did you..."

"Destroy this world?"

The white hair gradually disappeared with the flames, and the gold color lasted only a few breaths before turning black. The white-haired swordsman fell to the ground, his eyes wide open in death...

It is indeed the White Calamity.

Just as the golden flames were about to burn out, a murmur that was hardly an answer drifted from Yao Luo's lips.

"【███】must never...be born."
