Chapter 371

How can a practitioner with only Sequence Four control an interstellar empire that possesses a large number of legendary-tier and even demigod-tier powerhouses?

This is almost impossible to achieve; even if a group of Sequence Fours went together, it would be a destined ending of defeat.

The results of the previous large group of Command Lords taking action also verified this point. It should be known that each of them was at the level of a heaven-favored one, and their methods and backing were top-notch, yet it was still useless.

But Li Yu believed he had a good chance.

The reason lies in the fact that he possesses methods that other Command Lords do not!

Not in fighting and combat, but in other things.

For example, what he was doing at this time.

Using Bait Silk to control tens of thousands of believers, refining them into eyes and ears, spreading like a virus, easily filling every corner of the Long Chao Empire.

This ability is something only "Xu Xuan's" ability to sow seeds across the world could surpass, and even in fine control, he is far inferior to Li Yu.

And what follows!

Selecting a large number of suitable "seeds," spreading secret medicine formulas to them on a large scale, and teaching and letting them embark on the path to godhood.

Such things are also something other Command Lords simply cannot do.

First, ordinary Command Lords, and even some large forces, cannot master such a large number of formulas. Li Yu can possess them because he has experienced the Immortal Qin Shattered Realm Mystic Domain and other encounters.

Second, selecting the most suitable practitioners is an extremely large engineering project. Except for Li Yu, who is the "Bait True Lord," others simply cannot do it.

Of course, it is also because they have no such motivation.

The only goal of practitioners on the path to godhood is to climb upward.

What they pursue is personal greatness.

Although they will also establish some sects, most of them tend to be gangs or clans, rather than true religions.

Under Li Yu's incredibly careful and exquisite operation.

A great miracle of "surrounding the top from the bottom" is gradually becoming reality.

A large number of poor people who were originally struggling to survive, with an average life expectancy of no more than thirty, became transcendents while chanting Li Yu's false honorific name.

At the same time, many people also became Li Yu's fanatics.

Completely abandoning the chaotic gods and the faith of the Long Huang Sect, etc., and turning to follow Li Yu, the number of believers rose crazily.

During the spread, because of conflicts with the local "Long Huang Sect" in many aspects, the Hundred-Armed Long Huang Sect also underwent some slight changes.

For example, the two words "Long Huang" were gone.

Replacing them was "God Emperor."

The reason lies in the fact that believing in Li Yu can obtain paths leading to gods.

A great existence capable of possessing so many paths to godhood, besides using 【God Emperor】 to address Him, there is no other choice.

This detail stems from the underlying logic, and Li Yu found it hard to change. After all, he needed to use "religion" as a medium to push the plan forward, so he had to follow the crowd.

Silently and soundlessly!

Li Yu already possessed an incredibly vast, terrifying, and secret power.

However, it also took a lot of time.

One month!

The Long Chao Interstellar Empire is too big.

Even with a missionary speed that was almost like cheating, and a virus-splitting corruption process, it still took a full month to master this part of the power.

If he chose to collude with races like the "Chaotic Zerg," "Green-skinned Orcs," "Ratmen," "Mechanical Necromancers," etc., at this time, he could directly send the Long Chao Empire to its funeral in a very short time.

To some extent, this is also changing the world, and it could completely count as the mission being completed.

But Li Yu could foresee that this method would not receive a very high rating, and naturally, the rewards would not be very good.

Of course, the main thing is that he himself is unwilling.

The human race in the chaotic universe is already in a miserable enough situation; how can he add fuel to the fire?

He wants to overthrow the ruling class here!

He wants to change the operating rules!

But he must also ensure that the ruler of this star system afterward will still be the human race. Even if he returns to the real world and this place later becomes a large-sized Wanfu City, it is still better than the current high-pressure exploitation, which has no way to live and no hope to speak of.

When the number of transcendent practitioners at the bottom reached a critical point, Li Yu still did not summon the "Lord of Judgment."

Instead, to avoid exposure, he stopped in time.

The bottom is enough; he still needs a portion of the middle and high levels to act as commanders.

Otherwise, when the time comes to launch, it can't be Li Yu alone doing the micro-management.

He is not the Lord of the Veil and does not have that ability.

Although he did steal part of the narrative authority from 【Zuo Cikui】, it is too far from controlling so many people at the same time to launch a revolutionary uprising that sweeps through the interstellar empire with such tacit understanding.

Therefore, Li Yu will personally take action next to "corrupt" a portion of the empire's middle and high levels.

As for the targets?

One month was enough to select them.

At this moment, right in front of Li Yu, Serafina, who had taken on a new look and whose temperament had changed greatly, was reporting on the relevant matters.

She is a natural psionic, and she was not weak to begin with.

After being "transformed" by Li Yu, the majority of the Zerg bloodline that would have caused her to suffer control by the 【Hive Mind】 was removed, but the powerful psionic power she possessed was retained.

So-called psionic power!

It is equivalent to a universal power with many forms of expression.

Even without any cultivation, Serafina possesses the performance equivalent to a middle-sequence practitioner.

If she trains for a while, she will be close to the Sequence Five level.

To go further, she needs to continue to transform.

From this perspective, if Serafina were in the real world, she would be a heaven-favored one that all forces would fight for regardless of the cost.

Of course, it is the same here.

Otherwise, how could she, a daughter of a commoner, become the saintess of the Insect Thief Sect from the start... even if the Chaotic Zerg conquered this planet, almost all humans would be eaten, but she had some hope of surviving, though she would be completely integrated into the Zerg.

Now that she is a saintess who worships him immensely, Li Yu led her onto an incomplete but very hopeful path to godhood.

The Vortex God path!

That's right, it is this path that can now be completely considered as one of his own.

And Serafina and the Vortex God are unexpectedly very compatible.

She actually achieved jumps of several sequences, such as Leech, Witch, Undead Woman... in a short time.

Coupled with the talent of psionic power, she can be considered reborn.

It's just that I don't know if it's because she secretly hung out with "Vortex God's Daughter Yi Ge" for a month, but she also picked up a bad habit.

The relationship between Yi Ge and Li Yu is very complex.

In terms of bloodline, they can be considered sister and brother.

She is indeed Li Yu's top donor sister.

But she is extremely infatuated with Li Yu, and her expressions are also very bold, having some taboo implications.

Serafina doesn't dare to "profane" her great God Emperor.

But that doesn't prevent her from intentionally or unintentionally revealing herself to Li Yu without reservation.

Just like this moment!

She was dressed very coolly, reporting to Li Yu the middle and high-level targets to be corrupted before the start of the rebellion plan.

Her expression was solemn and holy, and her movements were impeccable.

But she herself was wearing extremely tight silver-white armor, and that incredibly perfect, white-to-the-extreme body was right before Li Yu's eyes, and the trace of Zerg bloodline remaining in her body, after being refined by the Vortex God's power, actually manifested as three pairs of incredibly gorgeous, iridescent insect wings.

Coupled with other insect-like features, it made her full of special charm.

Insect girl?

No, more like a Zerg goddess.

Coupled with her being a practitioner of the Vortex God path, the power of charm goes without saying.

With her current image, if she were willing to defect to the "Evil God," I'm afraid she would be a God-Chosen from the start.

Even Li Yu couldn't help but glance a few times while listening to the report.

"Great My Lord!"

"We are promoting the education of other middle-level bishops, generals, or high officials in the Viceroy's Mansion, and the progress is very smooth."

"But among the targets, there are three high imperial officials who have all reached the legendary level and need the Great My Lord to personally descend a miracle before they can convert to my great God Emperor Sect."

"These three are One-Star Bishop Ahriman, Long Huang Army General Kant, and Shennong Star Viceroy Luo Jia."

"The first one, Ahriman, comes from the bottom slums of Long Huang Star. Although he is already a long-lived species, he is one of the few bishops who has compassion for the vast poor. The cruel rules of the Long Huang Sect are frustrated every time they are promoted to the diocese where he is... This is also the reason why he has the strength of at least a Five-Star Archbishop but has never been able to advance."

"Kant is a legendary limit warrior who killed his way out of a colony planet that produced soldiers. Coupled with his generosity in selflessly teaching all the combat skills he possesses, he is worshipped by many battle groups... Only a few people know that Kant extremely loathes war. He is powerful and good at fighting, but he is an anomaly who longs for peace, which makes him repeatedly refuse the favor and gift of the 【Blood God】."

"Luo Jia is also a natural psionic, but his talent lies in 【Precognition】. He has foreseen the destruction of the Long Chao Empire many times in his dreams and believes in it firmly, suffering from torture. For this reason, he has tried to self-destruct many times... Now it seems that he probably also predicted his own betrayal, and My Lord can perhaps help him realize this prophecy."

"Except for these three, the huge ruling class of the Long Chao Empire has been corrupted and polluted by the chaotic gods and is beyond saving."

After listening to Serafina's report, Li Yu was both surprised and not surprised.

Not surprised in that for an empire that has been under high-pressure exploitation for many years, plus the existence of chaotic gods, it is a very normal phenomenon that all its high-ups are fallen and beyond saving.

Surprised in that there were actually three high-ups who could be saved.

This made Li Yu somewhat pleasantly surprised.

Although he planned for the rebellion to be launched, if no high-ups responded, it would likely still succeed in the end.

But if there were high-level insiders, the progress would naturally be faster, and the chance of success would be higher.

Li Yu did not have any hesitation.

That day, he took action against the three of them.

They were all legendary-tier powerhouses!

One-on-one fighting, plus it was a sneak attack, and the weaknesses were known to Li Yu in advance.

Naturally, Li Yu's chance of winning would be one hundred percent.

The most troublesome for others would be Viceroy Luo Jia, who possessed the ability of prophecy.

But for Li Yu, he was the easiest to deal with.

Prophecy is ineffective against Li Yu.

So the first one to be "corrupted" by Li Yu was Viceroy Luo Jia, who came from a colonial planet called "Shennong Star."

He first heard that a divine artifact related to the evil god Yiwang had appeared somewhere, which could help any existence end their life without pain.

When Luo Jia went through all kinds of hardships to find the divine artifact and put it around his neck.

He saw the great God Emperor.

In his dream, the prophecy that had tortured him for many years underwent some very obvious changes.

He both betrayed the empire and didn't betray it, because the Long Chao Third Interstellar Empire he foresaw would be destroyed, and on its corpse, a brand new empire that was far better than the previous one would quickly be born.

He was immediately freed from the pain and chose to convert.

And on Li Yu's fishhook, there was another big fish.

The next two big fish.

Ahriman!

Kant!

Li Yu did the same.

Targeting weaknesses, offering bait, and then corrupting them.

The reason it went so smoothly was also because these three were already anomalies of the empire.

Even if Li Yu hadn't appeared, as long as any inconspicuous "opportunity" appeared later, these three would have chosen to revolt.

And the bait Li Yu handed over was simply fragrant to the extreme; they simply couldn't refuse.

Only three days.

The God Emperor Sect, which was already popular among the bottom of the Long Chao Interstellar Empire, added three more heavyweight believers with legendary-tier combat power.

Only one miracle away!

These three would become Li Yu's fanatics, just like Serafina.

And this miracle came very quickly.

"Almost there!"

"Alarm Clock, it's time to come."

As Li Yu thought, his whole body transformed, directly turning into Lady Ba.

Before, when he stole the law and deceived the god, he was still a bit raw.

Now, it was simply flawless.

He began to communicate with the Lord of Judgment and unceremoniously added fuel to the fire, describing the Long Chao Interstellar Empire as a place where a large number of evil gods and their offspring were sleeping.

The devout follower requested the great Star Lord to send an avatar that didn't have much intelligence but could follow the follower's command to implement punishment on these disgusting existences.

Normally, most True Gods would not agree to such an unreasonable request.

You, a follower, actually want to command the Lord's avatar?

Li Yu's idea was this:

"First propose this unreasonable request. If it succeeds, then I don't even need to invite the Lord of the Furnace."

"If it doesn't work, then take a step back and directly invite a normal avatar."

"Then invite the 【Furnace】 over to expel Him."

But I don't know if it's because Lady Ba's performance has been extremely outstanding recently, so that she has full credibility with the Judgment Star Lord.

Or perhaps this star god is just easy to fool.

Or perhaps, as long as it is to punish and judge a sufficient number of evil gods at once, He will come.

Li Yu's request!

Actually received a response very quickly.

And in the spiritual response attached to it, Li Yu knew the answer.

It was the first option!

Lady Ba, this Judgment God-Chosen, recently transformed into a "grave-digging maniac," going to various god graveyards, regardless of danger, digging out those divine entities that were sleeping very soundly one by one, and then calling the Star Lord to come and judge them.

Working so diligently, the benefits are naturally many.

Lady Ba is already a very favored follower with the Lord of Judgment.

Therefore, when Li Yu disguised himself as her and made this request that looked unreasonable at first glance but was very reasonable upon careful thought, it was directly satisfied.

"Hmm?"

"Wait until I return to Wanfu City, I must find Lady Ba to match the confession as soon as possible and persuade her to cooperate, so as not to reveal the truth."

When this thought appeared in Li Yu's mind.

Outside the incredibly vast Long Chao star system, a terrifying meteor directly crossed multiple universes and surged over at an incredible speed.

At the same time!

On every planet in the star system, and even on Long Huang Star.

The corruption spread of the God Emperor Sect finally broke through a certain critical point and quickly fissioned, the number of believers exploded once again, stepping onto a new level.

This directly led to the damage of the chaotic gods' faith.

The gods all reacted in unison.

When dealing with other things, the huge ruling class reacted very slowly, dragging things out if they could.

But facing the anger of the gods!

Their reaction was extremely sensitive.
