Chapter 802 - 796: Solar System Public Trial!
"In my name, I command all living beings within the Solar System to witness these events," is actually a more literary version of the statement. In real life, no normal Earthling would speak like Ma Ran just did.
However...
If the same content were transformed into a more down-to-earth version, it would become "I’m going live now, everyone still alive in the Solar System, come be the audience!"
Hmm...
The persona of someone with a strong vanity, who loves to show off in front of others, still needs to be maintained.
Taking this opportunity to perform is not out of the question.
After all, the ability to play is Ma Ran’s bread-and-butter skill.
He couldn’t possibly put it aside and let it gather dust.
If he performs well, who knows, he might even gain feedback from the ability to play, further enhancing his own foundation!
If not for the abrupt outbreak of the All Heavens battle, giving Ma Ran enough development time, maybe within a few years, Earth, the Milky Way Galaxy, and even the entire Main Universe would stride into the "Era of Live Streaming."
Such things that rationalize one’s behavior and provide convenience...
When one has the ability to do them, Ma Ran of course wouldn’t hesitate in the least bit.
Sadly...
The Final Battle is about to erupt, and those ideas can only remain at the blueprint assumption stage.
Returning to the point, Ma Ran’s fingers were like a knife, gently slicing the space in front, tearing the void apart.
In an instant, a faint scholarly ink fragrance enveloped the globe, and gradually began dispersing throughout the Solar System.
Once this faint fragrance wrapped around both Earth and Cangming Star, it abruptly vanished without a trace.
At the same time, within the void fissure, two distinct beams of light radiated.
One was as red as blood, while the other was clear and blue like the sky.
The two beams of light intertwined and fused, floating in the air, converging into a mirror seemingly carved naturally from sapphire and red diamond jade.
Within this mirror played scenes from Prajna and Lin Ke’s meeting in "All Heavens OL," even thoughtfully providing dubbing and subtitles, supporting both Cangming’s common language and Earth’s various languages.
All Earth, Cangming people, whether willing or resistant, whether eyes open or closed, whether vision sharp as a hawk or blind, at this moment, their vision synchronized with the mirror.
"..."
Prajna squinted slightly, veins bulging on his temples, striving to focus his gaze on the red and blue mirror, avoiding Ma Ran: "Trying to undermine my confidence with oratory skill and time reversal techniques?"
"When I met with the Supreme of Light, you couldn’t possibly have known our whereabouts!"
"Otherwise, with your aggressiveness like fire, you definitely wouldn’t be passively waiting on Earth for our arrival!"
Ma Ran didn’t pay attention to him, seemingly concentrating on the "live streaming grand project."
Just one glance at the red and blue mirror, Prajna immediately realized that soon, everyone on Cangming Star and Earth humans would know the cause and partial methods of their invasion into the Main Universe with Lin Ke.
Of course, to the Supreme of No Position in front, perhaps this isn’t the most crucial point.
In a blink, Prajna interwove Buddha’s Light with the Light controlled by Lin Ke, sharing each other’s questions, answers, and ideas.
There’s a saying in the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, "One person’s wisdom is short, a group’s planning is long." In Prajna’s view, no matter how worthless Lin Ke may be, he is ultimately a Supreme Ruler, possessing combat power and mindset within the same realm, his ideas hold some significance.
Why did Ma Ran do this?
It couldn’t possibly be a meaningless action, right?
Lin Ke’s answer was: "What he’s doing, on one hand, is heightening the sense of ritual; on the other, he’s showcasing his achievements to his compatriots and allies."
"Ultimately, it’s for better display in front of others!"
"Spending power like this, just to argue for a moment’s supremacy and satisfy vanity, is indeed indulgent..."
When saying "display in front of others," Lin Ke was actually thinking of the term "showing off."
But when communicating with Prajna, he chose his words carefully, fearing that Ma Ran might kill his temporary teammate and search his soul, finding evidence of disrespect and find an excuse to destroy him completely.
Prajna unhesitatingly dismissed Lin Ke’s idea: "You underestimate Ma Ran too much."
"Perhaps before he ascended to Supreme, that was indeed his disposition, but once he achieved Supreme, he cannot be seen with previous eyes; no matter how much you overestimate or focus, it’s never overdone!"
Lin Ke curled his lip, disdainful of arguing with Prajna.
Does he underestimate Ma Ran?
This is called staying true to one’s original intentions, maintaining a human nature and healthy mindset!
"Ma Ran must have prepared a fallback, likely close to completely falling out."
"Pay attention to my actions in a moment, be ready to strike anytime!"
Prajna silently transmitted tactics to Lin Ke using his thoughts, habitually made a gesture of joining hands, yet found his body only had one arm left, the severed arm’s section covered by a mass of alien Supreme Origin like a maggot gnawing at a bone.
Under the erosion of this power, Prajna’s body could only remain in a mutilated state; unless he squandered Supreme Origin to wear it down little by little, otherwise no method could reshape the arm.
Immortal Technique, Buddhist Teachings, Magic Power, Divine Techniques, Super Martial Arts...
All these Extraordinary Powers, under the suppression of Supreme Origin, lost their effectiveness completely, becoming utterly meaningless!
Prajna swiftly realized that, for a while, he could only maintain his current state.
Upon realizing this, a shade of ferocity appeared in his eyes, even if enveloped by the Buddha’s Light seemingly nurturing grandeur, greatness, justice, compassion, and many positive qualities around him, it could not entirely cover this ferocious glint.
In summary...
Extremely dissatisfied!
Prajna hasn’t been at a disadvantage, just hadn’t encountered a guy like Ma Ran who plays cards out of expectation for a long time.
Forcibly initiating during the verbal phase...
A bit lacking in martial ethics.
However, when Prajna realized Ma Ran wasted effort on non-critical points, the gravity on his face lightened a bit.
Prajna noticed that the scenes in the red and blue mirror gradually "caught up" with reality, becoming truly live, and only then refocused his gaze on Ma Ran, speaking softly: "I roughly understand your purpose in this move."
"Originally, those two Earthlings who actively made deals with the Supreme of Light and me, I planned to make them key promotional figures, showcasing their ’beautiful new life’ segments on Earth and Cangming Star."
"With the help of the bloodline, background, and identity I provided, they would live well, becoming benchmarks of ’traitors,’ exhibiting the effect of ’spending a fortune to buy skeletons’ to create chaos on Earth and Cangming, if it could cause a mental blow to you, making your Spiritual Will slump and agitated, that would be the best outcome."
"Unfortunately..."
"Ma Ran, Honorably of Supreme of No Position, truly lived up to the name. In silence, he had already comprehended my intention."
"Now, you intend to conduct ’live judgment,’ punishing those two traitors in front of all Solar System beings to use as deterrence, right!"
Hearing this, Ma Ran quietly sped up his thinking by billions of times, naturally turning around.
He slightly angled his face, raised his eyes, his gaze landed on Prajna, with an indifferent tone said: "You guessed right."
After his words, Ma Ran lightly snapped his fingers.
Snap!
The scenes within the red and blue mirror suddenly transformed.
