Chapter 772 - 534: In a Single Thought, Billions of Lives Perish

Upon hearing this, the Eternal King was suddenly jolted awake. He looked up with an extremely unpleasant expression and gritted his teeth, saying, "Lu Li, don’t you think this is too cruel? If you want to destroy my entire Eternal Motion Race and the Small Magellanic Cloud, then just do it. The end result is merely death. Why torment me like this?"

Lu Li retorted, "When your Eternal Motion Race invaded the Milky Way Galaxy and committed atrocities, even conducting genetic experiments, did you ever consider how others felt? On Earth, we have an old saying: ’Do unto others as they have done unto you.’ Since you could do that back then, today I can let you feel that same sorrow and despair!"

This is to be expected.

The Eternal King was not surprised to hear such a response.

It let out a cold laugh, "Just because you want me to see, does that mean I must see? What if I close my eyes?"

Lu Li said, "Do as you please. The slaughter is about to begin, and I hope you will be satisfied with what you see."

With that, he no longer paid attention to the Eternal King but instead wielded the "death law" power.

A circle of black ripples suddenly appeared, resembling water waves. Starting from a small point, they spread out in all directions.

The Eternal King kept his word; he cast a quick glance at the unknown black ripples before decisively closing his eyes, not wanting to see the extermination of his race and the destruction of the Small Magellanic Cloud. He was prepared to fight to the end against Lu Li!

Then...

Well, the Eternal King discovered that even with his eyes closed, he could still clearly see the entire panorama of the Small Magellanic Cloud.

Lu Li had transcended the cosmic laws and naturally made the Eternal King see whatever he wanted him to see. Simply closing his eyes would not make it invisible!

The Eternal King suddenly opened his eyes wide in fury at Lu Li, so angry that the sulfuric liquid flowing throughout his body trembled violently, "You... you are going too far!"

Lu Li wore a half-smile, "There are even more oppressive things to come; please enjoy."

His words fell, and the black ripples suddenly sped up, in an instant spanning dozens of light years to envelop over two thousand star systems.

A terrifying scene suddenly came into the Eternal King’s view.

He saw that wherever the black ripples spread, the people of the Eternal Motion Race fell one by one as if they were drunken.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The sound of his people collapsing was clearly audible even across dozens of light years!

Millions of people!

Tens of millions of people!

Tens of billions, hundreds of billions, even trillions of Eternal Motion Race people fell to the ground and died in an instant!

The Eternal King already knew that when Lu Li transformed into the Heaven-Shocking Demon God, fifteen hundred light years in size, he had the power to destroy the Small Magellanic Cloud, and he also knew that it wouldn’t take much effort for him to exterminate all of his people. Yet, he really didn’t expect that Lu Li could simply hover in space and release a circle of black ripples, immediately causing over two thousand star systems and trillions of his people to lose their lives!

At this moment, the Eternal King was shocked and furious to the point where his eyes nearly burst!

He panicked and roared, "Stop! Lu Li! Stop it now!"

Lu Li didn’t even look at him, only softly saying, "They are just ordinary people of the Eternal Motion Race; I wasn’t too cruel, allowing them to die peacefully. You should be grateful to me."

Within just a sentence or two of dialogue, the black ripples spread several hundred light years further.

In the Eternal King’s view, his people continued to fall.

Those people seemingly unaware of what happened, indeed died quite peacefully.

In just a brief moment, trillions of Eternal Motion Race people had already died!

These Eternal Motion Race people did indeed die peacefully, but the Eternal King, who was alive to witness this, was already burning with anger.

Of course, aside from anger, his heart was also filled with dread, genuinely terrified by the bizarre method Lu Li used to wipe out billions of his people, filled with fear and trepidation!

A sense of powerlessness rippled through his heart, and the Eternal King felt incredibly desolate and utterly hopeless. Several times, he wanted to unleash a tirade, but he was afraid of angering Lu Li and causing his people to die more tragically. Yet, not venting made his heart tremble wildly.

As a result, the Eternal King’s lips continuously quivered, and his whole body shook violently, as if suffering from Parkinson’s disease.

The black ripples spread at an increasingly fast pace, swiftly sweeping across one or two thousand light years.

And within this one or two thousand light year range were the most densely populated areas of the Eternal Motion Race.

Over a billion star systems, although not all suitable for the Eternal Motion Race, would have at least 80 trillion people.

And such a large number of lives were gone in just a few seconds, like leaves scattered in the wind.

If someone were rapidly traversing every planet across these two thousand light years right now, they would surely discover that all life had ceased, whether members of the Eternal Motion Race, flora, fauna, or microorganisms—all eradicated.

With "shared vision" from Lu Li, the Eternal King could witness all this without rushing through the expanse.

He was exceedingly angry at first, yet seeing the utter deathly stillness, his hands and feet turned cold.

The Eternal King truly couldn’t believe the divine could be so powerful.

To exterminate 80 trillion members of the Eternal Motion Race, only needed a few seconds!

If those black ripples were allowed to continue spreading, the Eternal Motion Race would truly become extinct!

The Eternal King could no longer sit still; he hurriedly knelt with a thud and begged humbly, "Land God! I was wrong! I know I was wrong for colluding with the Prophet. If you want to kill, just kill me! Please, spare the rest of my people! I beg you!"

"As king of the Eternal Motion Race, having such awareness means you haven’t dishonored your identity."

Lu Li’s tone was filled with admiration, "But since we are enemies, if our roles were reversed, ask yourself, would you spare the beings of the Milky Way Galaxy?"

These words caused the Eternal King to fall silent, finally shutting his mouth.

What Lu Li said was true.

If the roles were reversed, it would certainly not spare any intelligent life from the Milky Way Galaxy.

One could say that Lu Li allowing the ordinary members of the Eternal Motion Race to die without pain was already quite merciful.

Silence enveloped the destruction of the Eternal Motion Race across one planet after another.

In less than a minute, the black ripples had swept through the entire 7,000 light-years of the Small Magellanic Cloud, exterminating every Eternal Motion Race member in every star system.

Or perhaps, it wiped out all life within the entire Small Magellanic Cloud.

The Eternal King, who had watched this unfold, appeared utterly despairing, his heart filled with immense grief.

When the ordinary members were snuffed out by the black ripples, it likely felt more anger than sorrow. But then seeing his children hiding on border planets also vanish under the black ripples, a profound sadness akin to the elderly burying their young engulfed him.

That deep-seated helplessness.

That soul-penetrating desolation.

Made the Eternal King wish for death!

Regrettably, even wanting to die was impossible now, for he had no tools at hand.

And even if he had a weapon to take his life, controlled by Lu Li, he could not end this terrifying nightmare through suicide.

He knew beyond a doubt that Lu Li would keep his word, allowing him to witness the extermination of all his people and the devastation of the Small Magellanic Cloud, and only then permit him to die.

Why?

Why had the glorious Eternal Motion Race occupying a Dwarf Star System come to such an end?

The Eternal King truly couldn’t comprehend it, having currenctly flattered the "God of Technology," yet suddenly a true deity appeared, reversing the situation in the Milky Way Galaxy and ultimately bringing disaster upon itself, leading to the annihilation of hundreds of trillions of its people.

Just when he felt utterly drained and powerless.

Lu Li’s emotionless voice sounded once more, "Since all the Eternal Motion Race people are now extinct, I shall end this swiftly by destroying the Small Magellanic Cloud as well!"
