Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 1069 - 1067: Missiles
Zheng Wentian: "Targeted?"
Next, Zheng Wentian saw even more powerful weapons that combined multiple technologies, specifically targeting gods and immortals.
In the sky, dozens of missiles fell at several times the speed of sound and then scattered. Accompanying their explosions, countless starlights burst forth, spreading in all directions.
Where the starlights passed, distorted human shadows appeared in the air.
In an instant, an area of fifty miles became a dense gathering of ghostly figures, with twisted and distorted phenomena rising sharply, completely turning into a dead zone filled with distortion, driving any life that enters it to madness and mutation.
Even seeing this scene from afar made Zheng Wentian's scalp tingle instantly. An attack that could turn an area of fifty miles into a twisted zone in one strike would make even gods and immortals have to dodge. Otherwise, if they were contaminated a few more times, they might mutate on the spot.
Zheng Wentian hurriedly asked, "What kind of weapon is this?!"
Xia Li explained: "This is a nano bomb that combines nanotechnology with Zhou Bai's Nine Disasters of Heaven and Man ability, capable of turning an area of fifty miles into a distortion phenomenon in one deployment.
But what you see is the result of an on-site activation. The original design was to quickly spread followers, conduct blanket-style infiltration, hoping to find an opportunity to penetrate the Luotian Realm of the gods and immortals."
Before Zheng Wentian could figure out what Zhou Bai's Nine Disasters of Heaven and Man ability was, he saw the next weapon.
A round black sphere was being slowly deployed by a missile, and as the black sphere vibrated slightly, it suspended in the atmosphere, unleashing endless light. Under the illumination of the light, countless scriptures appeared in the atmosphere.
These scriptures floated in the air, each character releasing infinite brightness, like a blazing sun illuminating the earth, exuding an extremely majestic and sacred aura.
But under the illumination of these scriptures, heaven and earth changed color, and animals used to test the weapon's power let out pitiful cries, all starting to mutate directly.
The clouds, mountains, grasslands, and trees all twisted as if lightly brushed by a hand, experiencing varying degrees of distortion.
The clouds turned pink and then all ignited.
In the distance, mountains fluctuated violently, directly taking on human shapes, as if a giant was breaking out of the mountain.
The grass and trees on the ground transformed into snake-like forms, frantically writhing and hissing.
The trees became half withered and half green, then began to scream and bleed.
Everything seemed as if the entire world was about to start twisting and mutating.
However, as the light from the black sphere instantly disappeared and the scriptures dissipated, the heavens and earth returned to normal, with only the mutated experimental animals and the deformed natural environment telling of the recent abnormal phenomena.
What Zheng Wentian and his companions could see were the abnormal phenomena after it ended. When those scriptures were projected, even they could not look directly at them.
Looking at the strange changes broadcasted from the Heavenly Demon's cameras in the distance, Zheng Wentian frowned and said, "What is this?"
Xia Li replied: "The Daozang is an interpretation of the Heavenly Dao. Looking directly at the Heavenly Dao will drive one mad and cause mutations, so the Daozang serves as a protection, allowing people to indirectly comprehend the Heavenly Dao."
"Qian Wangsun suggested that Zhou Bai, guided by the Daozang, look directly at the Heavenly Dao content explained by the Daozang and transcribe it."
"Since Zhou Bai's Fool Diagram allows him to maintain normalcy for a while even after surpassing the limit of mutation within him, and as long as the mutated power is timely digested by the Longevity Dao Fruit, he can recover."
"The original intent of this project was to record the content of the Heavenly Dao, then try to analyze it, enhance the efficiency of immortal techniques, and hopefully further popularize immortal technology."
"However, after Zhou Bai transcribed it, no one could directly look at the content. Not to mention looking directly, just hearing a sentence or glancing at it would cause immediate mutation."
"With the failure to popularize, the scriptures were used as a weapon. The content was broken down and stored with the splicing method in a database."
"Then, by combining atmospheric projection technology with the content of the Heavenly Dao, we can use Heavenly Demons for remote deployment. Once the projection device is launched and reaches the target location, the split Heavenly Dao scriptures and the splicing method are transmitted."
"The scriptures are instantly spliced and projected onto the atmosphere, achieving the purpose of allowing a broad-range view of the Heavenly Dao, instantly increasing the area's degree of distortion."
"If ordinary cultivators were to do something like transcribe the content of the Heavenly Dao, it might take hundreds of lives to achieve it. But if it really came down to a critical moment, we might be forced to do it no matter how many people died."
"Fortunately, with Zhou Bai, we don't have to sacrifice so many people. And he said that in the future, if a group of people are selected to learn the 'Ignorance - Death Row' dao art, then there will be someone who can temporarily look at the Heavenly Dao, and by that time we can try to truly analyze the Heavenly Dao."
(Fool Diagram's fourth star point, Ignorance - Death Row: In a state of reaching the pollution limit and entering mutation, maintains rationality for a period of time)
"We call this the Heavenly Dao Bomb, because it only requires data transmission, splicing, and projection, making it particularly low cost, and the technology is very simple. We have already manufactured over a hundred thousand."
Listening to Xia Li's account, Zheng Wentian felt a chill in his heart. Such a nano bomb was already extremely dangerous, yet seemed somewhat controllable.
But in his eyes, this Heavenly Dao Bomb was extremely dangerous and terrifying. It was creating distortion zones on a large scale and truly possessed the power to threaten gods and immortals.
And to hear Xia Li say that it's particularly easy to manufacture, with over a hundred thousand already made? Doesn't that mean the world could be destroyed anytime and anywhere?
Moreover, such power...
Zheng Wentian turned his head, looking at the young person in front of the projection screen who had just launched the Heavenly Dao Bomb.
The other party looked only about fifteen or sixteen years old, with cultivation at a pitifully low first stage, and similarly had a hollow first stage with a superficial degree of Taoification.
Yet such a low-level cultivator had just manipulated power capable of destroying gods and immortals, transforming an area dozens of miles across into a region of distortion from afar.
Xia Li sighed: "We actually just simply pieced together existing technologies and capabilities of immortal techniques, Heavenly Demons, and the Nine Disasters of Heaven and Man. This can't even be considered our invention, merely our application."
Jing Xiu added: "The liberation of thought is an important driving force for social progress, the precursor to action. Every movement of thought liberation has been the source of strength for social advancement, the internal motivation for social change."
"Our technological reserves have long been sufficient, yet due to the interference of gods and immortals, due to their constant oppression, our society has not undergone reform."
Zheng Wentian sighed: "But such weapons are too terrifying."
"Yes, indeed very terrifying."
The crowd turned their heads to see that it was Zhou Bai who had spoken.
They heard Zhou Bai continue, "In the history of Homo sapiens, there is a weapon called the nuclear bomb. Not only powerful, but also causing severe environmental contamination, making the attacked area uninhabitable."
"If such weapons are used on a large scale, it might even make the entire Earth increasingly unfit for Homo sapiens to survive."
"The Heavenly Dao Bomb, created from piecing together the technologies of immortal techniques, Heavenly Demons, and the Nine Disasters of Heaven and Man, also resembles a nuclear bomb. Its residual distortions and mutations make the entire area dangerous, rendering it unfit for human habitation."
"But it's even cheaper and simpler. If used on a large scale, it could potentially make the entire planet unfit for human habitation."
Speaking here, Zhou Bai chuckled: "But this is humanity. We've always been creating weapons with destructive power far beyond our control, always attempting to master forces that could destroy us, recklessly harvesting the life of the entire planet to develop ourselves."
"It won't be long before the immortals also realize that mortals are far more dangerous and ruthless than those gods and immortals who cultivate their paths step by step."
Zheng Wentian looked at Zhou Bai, recalling all the scenes he'd witnessed since arriving at the base.
Mass-produced cultivators...
Weapons that could destroy heaven and earth from hundreds or thousands of miles away...
Just pressing a few buttons could threaten gods and immortals, create wide-scale distortions, and even endanger the safety of heaven and earth...
Mortals mastering weapons capable of world destruction made Zheng Wentian feel a hint of unease at the thought.
Having been educated in immortal techniques since childhood, and living in the Celestial Palace, at this moment, Zheng Wentian was uncertain whether what Zhou Bai and they were doing was right or wrong.
Originally, seeing Zhou Bai battle the gods and immortals made him feel that continued cultivation had no meaning.
But now it made him feel that his more than ten years of arduous cultivation had no meaning.
Zheng Wentian couldn't help but sigh: "You've released a monster."
"Indeed." Zhou Bai also nodded in agreement: "But it is worth it."
Zheng Wentian asked curiously, "Do you have any ideas on how to deal with the Luotian Realm? If the immortals keep hiding in the Luotian Realm, what will you do?"
Zhou Bai laughed, "No need to look at the remaining weapons, the Human Emperor's sword was just repaired recently. Let me take you to see it."

A little push for "I am the Supreme Demon" by Falcon Soaring Into the Sky, who promised to release a hundred chapters upon launching. Just for Falcon Soaring Into the Sky's attitude, it's worth a look.
