"Let... let me go! You bad... bad guy, invading my home!"
"No matter if you are sent by the Mechanical Mainbrain to exhaust my will... I... I will definitely resist to the end!"
"Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, you want to erase my consciousness... to turn me into a puppet like the other Mechanical Ascension Gods... I won't let you succeed!"
Holding Xi'er, who looked sickly, in mid-air, Lin Tianming did not kill her despite her being exhausted of strength.
Instead, he infused his Primordial Chaos Power into Xi'er's Mechanical Body just like he did when he saved Su Qianqian.
As Lin Tianming's Primordial Chaos Power flooded into her body, Xi'er felt even more pain.
"It hurts... it's so painful! You... just kill me! Don't... don't torture me!"
Lin Tianming did not respond, but his hands did not stop moving, constantly infusing the Primordial Chaos Power into Xi'er's body.
Once Lin Tianming successfully eradicated the Mechanical Ascension Power left in Xi'er by the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, the previously tormented Xi'er suddenly felt much better.
"What... what's happening? I am a Mechanical Body... but... but I feel so warm..."
"So... so comfortable... I like this feeling of being infused..."
"I can no longer sense the power of Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny trying to erase my soul... The rust and decay are also suppressed... are you... are you saving me?"
As her physical condition gradually improved, the sickly Xi'er's spirit began to stabilize and she no longer appeared mentally unstable like before.
She gradually realized that Lin Tianming was saving her.
She felt touched, but Xi'er did not know why Lin Tianming was saving her.
"We were just fighting... yet you saved me..."
"If your soul consciousness had already been erased by the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, I definitely would not have saved you, as you would have already died.
But your soul is still present, and has been resisting the Mechanical Mainbrain, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. By helping you completely rid of the control of the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, you can join us in witnessing its destruction!"
Lin Tianming's answer left Xi'er in silence.
Ever since she learned the truth about Mechanical Ascension and having her consciousness erased by the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, she has been resisting.
She was so consumed by the struggle that she became mentally unstable and had her Mechanical Body covered in rust, further eating away her will.
The Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny also deceived her, claiming that uploading her consciousness to the data space would free her from the rust decay, but Xi'er did not believe it.
She kept resisting, always hoping that one day, someone would lead her out of this purgatory.
She waited so long that she, now mentally unstable, even forgot the time.
She felt certain that her soul consciousness would soon be completely erased by the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, but today, to her surprise, she actually encountered someone who could save her from this suffering.
Once the rust decay on Xi'er was completely suppressed, Lin Tianming finally placed her back in her wheelchair.
"Thank you, what... what do you want? I can give you anything!"
Sitting in the wheelchair, Xi'er looked up sincerely at Lin Tianming.
Without the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny constantly trying to erase her soul, nor any rust decay, Xi'er was in good condition, able to think normally without any signs of mental instability.
In her normal state, she also expressed her goodwill towards Lin Tianming who saved her life.
Hearing Lin Tianming say he wanted nothing, Xi'er was stunned.
After a moment, she said, "What about you?"
"I am naturally going to find that damnable Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny with the Thunder Dragon Emperor and destroy it completely!"
Speaking of what he planned to do, Lin Tianming had a slight upward curve at the corner of his mouth, exuding confidence.
Knowing that Lin Tianming was only taking the Thunder Dragon Emperor to find the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, Xi'er frowned.
"Are you sure you're going with just... her?"
"Yes, just the two of us. I would like to take you with us, but in your current state, it's very easy for the Mechanical Mainbrain to capture and use you."
Lin Tianming nodded with certainty.
If he could really bring them along to bolster himself, Lin Tianming would naturally be willing.
But at present, taking them to face the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny would only distract him.
At this moment, Angel Xingyao, despite their severe injuries, also made their way over.
Angel Xingyao spoke directly, "Just let Lin Tianming go with Thunder Dragon Emperor. Together, their combined combat power can soar and almost match ours. Us going with him now would only hold him back!"
"Exactly! Our original plan was to conserve as much combat power as possible and fight alongside the adorable one in the mission to destroy the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny. But this battle has taken too much out of us... Let him go with Thunder Dragon Emperor."
Fairy Qing Lei also expressed her viewpoint.
Little Lolita Tianqi took over the conversation, "Don't underestimate him; if he unleashes his potential for combat power, he can even expel the Deceit God True Body!"
"That's right, Tianming is the great hero who expelled the Deceit God True Body. Xi'er, now that you have freed yourself from the control of the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, you should stay safely with us!"
Su Qianqian also chimed in, showing her confidence in Lin Tianming.
Seeing that they all said this and were also willing to accept her—an opponent they had just fiercely battled—Xi'er no longer dwelled on it.
"Alright then, take care of yourself!"
Xi'er certainly didn't wish for anything bad to happen to Lin Tianming, the man who had rescued her from the dire straits.
Lin Tianming gestured to reassure her, then said to all of Angel Xingyao:
"Rest and heal here, or leave Mechanical Divine City altogether. I feel that the longer you stay here, the more danger you'll be in. The safest option is to heal on the surface!
I'll head out with Thunder Dragon Emperor now, wait for our good news!"
Once he finished speaking, Lin Tianming exchanged a glance with Thunder Dragon Emperor, and the two of them rushed towards the ultimate control room where the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny was located.
The final journey was not long, and Lin Tianming and Thunder Dragon Emperor quickly arrived at the core control room of Mechanical Divine City.
Aside from a faint glimmer at the center, the entire control room was engulfed in darkness.
Lin Tianming's consciousness had traversed endless space before, entering the data space of Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, and this place bore a resemblance to that.
The only difference was that this place was reality, what he'd entered previously was a virtual data world modeled by the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny after this location.
As Lin Tianming and Thunder Dragon Emperor walked inside for not too long, the area of dim light began to emit a silver mechanical brilliance, illuminating the entire dark control room.
Under Lin Tianming's vigilant watch, the enormous Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, designed to mimic a human brain, became visible to him.
The true body of Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny was identical to what he'd seen in the data space before.
Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny was constructed of intricate mechanical components, with countless data cables extending from it in all directions like spider webs.
The data cables occasionally flickered with signals from Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny issuing commands and receiving updates on the outside world.
Amid the oppressive atmosphere, the divine mechanical radiance emitted by Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny paradoxically made the Thunder Dragon Emperor even more anxious.
She couldn't help but move closer to Lin Tianming, whispering a question, "Is... is this the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny?"
Before Lin Tianming could answer Thunder Dragon Emperor, Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny itself took the initiative to answer her question.
"That's right, friend from Genetic God Country, I am the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny!"
Having introduced itself, Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny directly ignored Thunder Dragon Emperor and extended its invitation to Lin Tianming.
"The human Lin Tianming from the Abandoned Land, this is our second meeting. Since last time, you've acquired Genetic Ascension Power.
You've managed not to explode and perish while wielding the powers of the Three Great Ascensions. I was not wrong about you.
Our struggles against each other are meaningless. If you wish, I can absolve you from all the transgressions you have committed on your way here.
Come, accept me, upload your consciousness to my data space, and I will make you the strongest Ascended God of the Three Ascension Divine Kingdoms, granting you the ability to evolve indefinitely and become stronger with each battle!"
As soon as Thunder Dragon Emperor heard Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny trying to beguile Lin Tianming, she was about to remind him, but Lin Tianming immediately attacked the Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, enhanced by the power of Golden Light Thunder.
"Mechanical Mainbrain Destiny, today I, Lin Tianming, on behalf of your mother, the Mother of Destiny, will utterly destroy you, her wayward son!"
