Chapter 756: Chapter 234: The Terror of the Mechanical Race! Machine Soul Core, Huge Enhancement
Just as Qin Feng cleared the mechanical army from orbit for the third time, the Mechanical Race life form, which had been holed up deep within the planet’s core frantically spawning troops, finally made a new move.
It seemed to realize that manufacturing any more conventional troops would be a futile waste of energy.
So, it made an extremely decisive and ruthless decision!
It began frantically injecting all its remaining energy into the planet’s core, creating an extremely unstable, high-yield Spiritual Explosion Device!
Then... it detonated the core!
BOOM—!!!
A terrifying boom that no words could describe erupted in Qin Feng’s Sea of Consciousness!
The massive Life Planet began to crumble and disintegrate from its core!
An endless torrent of light and heat erupted in an instant, forming a miniature supernova that bathed the entire star system in a deathly white glow.
A terrifying shockwave, carrying an energy torrent powerful enough to rip anything apart, swept out in all directions.
The Spiritual Field and Spiritual Energy Field of the entire area descended into unprecedented chaos and violence amidst the massive explosion.
If Qin Feng’s Mental Power hadn’t been so formidable, his foundation so stable, he would have instantly lost all perception of his surroundings, rendered blind and deaf.
Yet, within Qin Feng’s still-clear spiritual perception, the cunning Mechanical Race life form was using the perfect Smoke Bomb it had personally engineered as cover, frantically fleeing away from the battlefield at incredible speed.
It clearly knew that Qin Feng was a terrifying powerhouse it stood no chance against. To remain meant certain death.
"Trying to run?"
A cold smile touched the corners of Qin Feng’s lips.
WHOOSH—
His figure flashed. He completely ignored the chaotic Spiritual Energy field—a storm that would have stopped an ordinary Constant Star-level Powerhouse in their tracks. Like an arrow loosed from a bow, he shot forward in precise pursuit of the fleeing Mechanical Race life form.
In the void, Qin Feng wielded his jet-black "Star-Swallower" Long Spear, locking onto a bizarrely shaped silver vessel escaping at high speed up ahead.
Without hesitation, he unleashed the spear Intent of a level-seven killing art, the Heaven-swallowing Fist Technique, striking out across the void.
In that instant, a terrifying gravitational field that seemed capable of devouring all creation condensed on the spear’s tip. It formed a miniature psychic black hole that latched onto the vessel, pulling it back with vicious force.
Qin Feng had assumed this special vessel was simply a getaway vehicle built by the Mechanical Race life form.
But in the next moment, something happened that took even him by surprise.
The moment the Heaven-Swallowing spear Intent locked onto the massive, fleeing vessel, countless complex mechanical structures suddenly extended from its smooth hull, beginning a dazzling transformation.
"KCHK! K-CHK-CHK-CHK—"
With a series of loud grinding and interlocking metallic sounds, the massive vessel transformed in a single second. Through a series of astounding combinations and reconfigurations, the starship became a ferocious, several-thousand-meter-tall Mechanical Giant, wielding a massive spear and shouldering a Heavy Cannon.
Within the Mechanical Giant’s head, its two massive electronic eyes blazed with a tangible fire of Mental Power.
"Oh?"
Qin Feng was momentarily taken aback.
"Human!"
The Mechanical Giant actually spoke, transmitting a series of harsh, grating, electronically synthesized words via Mental Power fluctuations.
"Spare me this once!
I can serve you!
With my manufacturing capabilities, I can help you conquer more star systems! I will build you a vast steel Empire!"
An imperceptible frown creased Qin Feng’s brow.
Within his perception, he noticed something odd. All around the shattered remains of the planet, amidst the countless pieces of mechanical wreckage sent flying by the shockwave, were a large number of units—seemingly deactivated mechanical infantry, small vessels, self-propelled artillery, and more—using the chaos as cover to flee in all directions.
This discovery immediately raised his suspicions.
"No need!"
He didn’t hesitate for a second. His killing intent surging, he attacked with explosive force.
Killing Art: Boundless Mountains!
An even more solid phantom of an Ancient Divine Mountain instantly formed above the Mechanical Giant’s head, bringing an irresistible Will down upon it in an act of Suppression.
A Spiritual Field and pure physical force pressed down on the massive Mechanical Giant simultaneously.
Under Qin Feng’s terrifying Energy Fluctuation, which was powerful enough to crush anything, the numerous ordinary steel components on the advanced-alloy Mechanical Giant were instantly vaporized by the intense heat and pressure, not even getting a chance to resist.
Only the highest-grade, unknown rare alloys barely managed to hold their shape.
Meanwhile, under the crushing force of this Will, the blazing fire of Mental Power in its eyes flickered like a candle in the wind before rapidly dimming and extinguishing.
Finally, the soul fluctuations of the Mechanical Race life form vanished completely.
’Hm? Where’s the Machine Soul Core?’
With a wave of his hand, Qin Feng pulled the shattered wreckage of the Mechanical Giant to him. His Mental Power swept through it, only to find it completely empty. The core that should have contained immense Spiritual Energy was not there.
’Something’s wrong!’
In a flash, a terrible thought struck Qin Feng.
He shot forward in an instant, his body a blur, streaking in another direction—toward the field of "mechanical wreckage" that was scattering and fleeing.
’The golden cicada sheds its shell!
The soul of this Mechanical Race entity can transfer to any of the mechanical constructs it has personally created at any time!’
’How terrifying!’
In that moment, Qin Feng finally understood why the Mechanical Race was considered one of the Cosmic Peak Races.
Their bodies are merely temporary shells, constructs that can be discarded at any moment.
Only their immortal souls are the true proof of their existence!
Realizing this, Qin Feng held nothing back.
His immense Mental Power, which spanned an incredible seventy thousand light-years, instantly formed a Heaven and Earth Net that completely enveloped millions of square kilometers of space.
Nothing could hide from this massive net; no mechanical construct could hope to escape.
"Perish!"
With a single thought, his Mental Power manifested as the Ancient Divine Mountain and began an indiscriminate, devastating purge of every mechanical construct in the area.
Whether they were small mechanical infantry, damaged vessels, or seemingly insignificant self-propelled artillery units...
Everything was crushed and disintegrated one by one by this overwhelming Mental Power.
At last, after utterly crushing a final small scout ship that had tried to slip through, a rhomboid Crystal Stone appeared before Qin Feng, floating silently in the void and emitting a faint, shimmering light.
’The Machine Soul Core!’
