Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

Chapter 500: Chapter 499 “Hong

When Jiang Li left, Old Dragon King felt humiliated and dared not to watch him go.

“Was this kid so annoying when he was young?”

“Seems like he was.”

…

[Congratulations, host, for completing the task. Would you like to settle the rewards?]

“Settle.”

[A set of Dragon Scale Armor]

The Dragon Scale Armor is soft and flexible, its irregular shape can absorb up to forty percent of attacks, which could be considered top-tier equipment for the Divinity Transformation Stage.

“If I could have obtained this armor back then… though perhaps it wouldn’t have made any difference. I was already invincible at my tier, no one in the Divinity Transformation Stage could defeat me.”

The system’s rewards were now so useless that even Jiang Li from five hundred years ago wouldn’t have needed them.

[One set of “Heavenly Shaman Body”]

“As I suspected, it’s not a duplicate. This is the body cultivation technique of the Shaman Clan, an ancestral treasure that is never shared. Zhang Konghu practiced this technique.”

The Shaman clan is known for their invincible bodies, their fame spreading across the nine provinces. Much of this is due to the “Heavenly Shaman Body”. Once the “Heavenly Shaman body” is fully cultivated, twelve ancestral shamans appear behind the cultivator, creating a terrifying scene.

Zhang Konghu is a perfect example of someone who has mastered the “Heavenly Shaman Body”.

“One hundred and fifty years ago, Zhang Konghu asked for my help in modifying this cultivation technique. The original creator of this technique was truly a genius. It was almost perfect when it was first created. After my modification, I was only able to enhance Zhang Konghu’s physical strength by twenty-five percent.”

[One unit of Soul Severing Water]

“Finally, to you, the alchemical ingredient that doesn’t exist in the Nine Provinces.”

Jiang Li took the precious Soul Severing Water to Su Wei.

“This is the Soul Severing Water recorded in the ancient books. Su Wei, why don’t you taste this and see if it’s real?” Jiang Li was stopped by the Red Crow Furnace at the entrance of Alchemy Peak.

“Taste this my ass.” Hearing this, Su Wei swiftly arrived and kicked the Red Crow Furnace over.

The young disciple who used to fan the flames has grown into a beautiful young woman, famous throughout the Dao Sect.

She has become both the closed-door disciple of Su Wei and the Red Crow Furnace.

Both Su Wei and the Red Crow Furnace intended to groom her as their successor.

She lowered her head, feeling that her master Su Wei’s temper has been growing more volatile recently.

“The Human Emperor wants me to refine the Sun Yang Plague Poison Pill? Easy, leave it to me. I guarantee that whoever takes this pill will surely die and can’t be any more dead!” Su Wei sneered, very confident in his alchemy skills.

Anyone who could take another breath after taking his pills would only be a blasphemy to his alchemy skills.

“…Perhaps it doesn’t need to be that effective.” Jiang Li felt that Su Wei was a little too enthusiastic.

“Give me half a day. Just half a day!”

Jiang Li was about to say something when he raised his eyebrows.

Someone was summoning him.

…

“Ladies and gentlemen, please hear me out. The current state of chaos and warfare has arisen entirely due to the plots of the Heavenly Demon from other realms. If we continue this way, it will only lead the World of Brahma Hear to destruction.”

In a certain space, dozens of illusions stood quietly to the side, eager to hear what this supposed cultivator from the Nine Provinces world had to say.

The World of Brahma Hear was a world that Mount Heshan had visited. This world was filled with planets, each having its unique civilization. Distances between planets were calculated in lightyears, and they knew nothing of each other until recent times.

Later, one civilization managed a major technological breakthrough in space travel, enabling sub-light speed travel.

This planet’s civilization was warm and hospitable, eager to discover if there were other civilizations in the universe.

They dispatched several fleets, one of which, after decades of exploration, was about to discover another civilization when it suddenly lost contact with its home planet, making them suspicious.

They were worried about what to do if the civilizations they discovered were malicious.

If that civilization was more advanced, it would likely annihilate them.

If its technological level was similar to theirs, their few hundred warships would not be an adequate defense.

If that civilization was technologically inferior, they might quickly copy and surpass their technology within a short time.

The only option was to strike first, asserting control of the situation.

This planet’s civilization launched the first attack, only to discover that the other side was not weak, just hadn’t developed sub-light speed technology. However, their weaponry was terrifyingly powerful.

Due to the sudden attack, millions of civilians on the other side were killed. Enraged, their ruling class destroyed the few hundred warships of the attack force and quickly copied the sub-light speed travel technology, launching their counterattack for revenge.

Ironically, the other fleets that this civilization had dispatched also lost contact and then became suspicious, attacking other unknown civilizations, only to be counter-attacked.

The other civilizations learned from sub-light speed technology and sought revenge.

For a time, the first civilization to figure out the sub-light speed travel technology became the common target, subjected to assaults from several others.

This civilization too felt wronged. They assumed their fleet’s loss of contact was due to these civilizations playing tricks, and yet, they were being accused of being the aggressor.

Such logic was beyond comprehension.

Counterattack!

This civilization and the surrounding star systems became the battleground, with endless warfare.

During the conflict, several more planets in the midst of their third technological revolution rapidly advanced. When they first made contact with the outside world, they found that the most advanced civilizations were in a state of chaos. Thus, they concluded that these advanced civilizations were extremely barbaric, harboring ambitions to assimilate other civilizations.

The relationships between civilizations were far from harmonious.

To protect themselves, they focused on developing weapon technology, and themselves joined in the war.

Dozens of civilizations were involved in the conflict.

At this level of chaos, the initial cause of the conflict no longer mattered.

When Mount Heshan first visited the World of Brahma Hear, he noticed the complex relationships between the planets and felt that he needed the Heavenly Machine Tower and Tian Sha Pavilion, both adept at gathering information, to understand the dynamics.

Hence, the master and disciples from the Heavenly Machine Tower and the original Pavilion Master of the Tian Sha Pavilion were invited over.

They each used their strengths to explore the ancient histories of the planets, deduced the cause behind the current situation, and gradually discovered the root of the problem.

There was a man named “Hong”. He took on a million forms, as a scientist leading the original civilization to achieve sub-light speed travel technology.

He took the form of a spaceship captain, cut off contact with the home civilization, and ordered the attack on unknown civilizations.

He took the form of intelligence agency officials from various civilizations, providing false intelligence, guiding these civilizations to eye each other with suspicion.

…

Hong had taken on too many forms, so many that even Destiny Taoist had lost count.

This person named “Hong” was definitely a great cultivator.

Destiny Taoist stepped forward, revealing his identity, expressing the greatest goodwill, hoping to stop the fighting.

All the civilizations were on their last leg, continuing this way would only lead the world to destruction.

“There’s a world beyond this world? You come from the Nine Provinces world?” Seeing Destiny Taoist’s actions, the various civilizations lowered their guard, feeling that it wouldn’t hurt to have a talk.

Just as they were about to respond in kind, the confidants of the rulers, after a series of analyses, suggested that the Nine Provinces world might have questionable intent and they should always remain vigilant.

“Found you! Mount Heshan, attack!” Destiny Taoist sneered. Hong’s multiple personas had been idle for the past few decades and Destiny Taoist could not find any clues to his whereabouts. He decided to reveal his identity and draw the snake from the pit, hoping to provoke Hong’s alter ego to show himself again.

With the Immortal Artifact, Mount Heshan, at his disposal, Destiny Taoist was not worried about any major trouble that the other party could cause.
