Forced to become a top influencer, I rely on my tu cao to ruin the cultivation world.

Above the ruins of Sunset Peak, the wind swirled black ash like snowflakes falling from the sky.

Jia Zhuang stood in front of the huge metal loudspeaker, behind him were tens of thousands of emaciated workers with vacant eyes. They had no hoes, no throwing swords, only wrenches, iron bars, and pairs of gloves soaked in machine oil that they had salvaged from the factory ruins.

In the sky, the crimson countdown continued its relentless ticking.

Formatting time: 04:59:23

Four hours.

Four hours later, this plane will return to chaos, and everything will be erased.

"Chairman Jia..." Elder Wang Teng sat on the ground, clutching a family photo tightly in his hand, his voice trembling, "It's no use. If the Heavenly Court wants to destroy us, it's like crushing an ant. We can't resist."

Suppressed sobs rose from the surrounding crowd; despair spread like a plague.

Jia Zang didn't turn around. He looked at the line of scarlet characters in the sky and suddenly laughed.

"Elder Wang, you are right."

Jia Zang turned around, and in his bloodshot eyes burned an almost insane flame.

"With these broken copper and scrap iron, with the flesh and blood of these mortals, we really can't reach the South Heavenly Gate. Even if we squeeze all the spiritual energy out of us, we still can't break through the skin of the Heavenly Court."

He pointed to the mountain of scrap metal behind him.

"But who said we have to rely on physical attacks?"

Jia Zang suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the sky.

"System! All remaining energy! Activate 'Project Yu Gong'!"

[System Notification: Warning! The "Foolish Old Man's Plan" will consume the last bit of primordial energy of this plane. If it fails, the formatting process will be accelerated.]

[Confirm execution?]

"Execute it!" Jia Zang roared, "Since we're going to die anyway, let's take a big gamble!"

[Command confirmed. Recombining matter... Injecting "Cyber ​​Aura"... Connecting to Earth's live stream...]

"Buzz—!!!"

A piercing buzzing sound echoed through the sky.

In the ruins of Luoxia Peak, the tens of thousands of tractors that had been rusted and scrapped suddenly began to tremble violently.

The rust on their bodies peeled off like snakeskin, revealing brand-new armor gleaming with metallic luster. The once dilapidated headlights had been replaced by crimson electronic eyes, and the exhaust pipes no longer spewed black smoke, but rather a stream of blazing blue plasma.

Even more frightening, these tractors began to deform.

The tracks were lengthened, transforming into an anti-gravity suspension chassis; the driver's cab folded up, becoming a fully enclosed tactical cockpit; and the ore originally loaded in the truck bed was transformed into "industrial bombs" flashing with lightning under the system's high-dimensional reorganization.

This is not a tractor.

These are 10,000 "interstellar warships" disguised as agricultural machinery!

"Holy crap..." Elder Wang Teng was dumbfounded. "Chairman Jia, what... what kind of magic weapon is this?"

"This is faith." Jia Zhuang's lips curled into a proud smile. "Family, the broadcast has begun!"

Jia Zang grabbed the huge metal microphone and, facing the sky and into that unseen dimension, let out his final cry.

"Brothers and sisters in the live stream! The Heavenly Court is going to format us! We're doomed! Can you bear to watch us be wiped out? Can you bear to see this world of cultivation, so full of life and fighting spirit, disappear?"

In the sky, the previously indifferent barrage of comments suddenly paused for a second.

Immediately afterwards, an unprecedented frenzy erupted.

What?! Formatting?!

[The Heavenly Court can't accept defeat!]

[Don't be afraid, Mr. Jia! We're here!]

[Everyone stand up! Let's crowdfund!]

[Donate 999 rockets! Blow up the Southern Heavenly Gate for me!]

[Donate an aircraft carrier! Send Chairman Jia to the heavens!]

Countless golden specks of light fell from the void; they were donations from Earth's netizens, the "emotional value" of billions of living beings.

These points of light converged into a river, surging wildly into the thousands of tractors.

"Listen to my command!"

Jia Zang leaped up and jumped onto the specially modified "flagship" at the very front—a super tractor that was ten meters tall and painted in red and black.

He sat in the driver's seat, gripping the control stick, feeling the surging, almost explosive power within him.

"Target--"

Jia Zhuang took a deep breath and suddenly pushed down the throttle valve.

"South Heavenly Gate!!!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Ten thousand tractors started up at the same time, and the huge roar converged into a torrent of steel.

The earth trembled, and the mountains collapsed.

Those ten thousand steel behemoths, radiating a ghostly blue light and spewing scorching flames, resembled a giant steel dragon, tearing through the earth and soaring into the sky.

……

Heavenly Court, South Heavenly Gate.

This is the entrance to the Three Realms, shrouded in mist and clouds year-round, where cranes soar.

The four Heavenly Kings guarding the gate were yawning listlessly.

"I heard that the lower realm is going to be formatted?" The Heavenly King of Growth idly fiddled with the sword in his hand. "What a pity, I was planning to go down and capture a few young boys and girls."

"Forget about it," said Guangmu Tianwang lazily. "Who dares to disobey the Heavenly Dao System's orders? Those mortals are probably begging for mercy on their knees by now."

Just then.

"boom--!!!"

A loud bang caused the glazed tiles on the South Heavenly Gate to fall down in a flurry.

"What happened? Was it an earthquake?"

The Four Heavenly Kings looked up in alarm.

Suddenly, the once calm sea of ​​clouds was torn apart by a violent gust of air.

Then, they witnessed a scene they would never forget.

That's neither a magic weapon nor a divine beast.

That was a... tractor?

A gigantic tractor, glowing blue and sporting a "Mount Akina Speed ​​King" sticker on its front, burst forth from the clouds with a destructive force!

Behind it, however, was a dense, overwhelming torrent of steel!

"What...what is that?!" The Heavenly King of Growth was so frightened that he dropped his sword.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"

The alarm at Nantianmen sounded shrilly.

"Activate the shield! Activate the shield now!"

A golden curtain of light rose in front of the South Heavenly Gate.

However, faced with this torrent of steel, a mixture of "Earth's flow" and "industrial waste gas," the supposedly indestructible Heavenly Shield was like a thin soap bubble.

"For survival! To avoid being formatted!"

Jia Zang sat in the cockpit, his eyes bloodshot, and roared as he pressed the launch button.

"Get the hell in here!!!"

"boom!!!"

The first tractor crashed hard into the protective cover.

There was no explosion, only pure kinetic energy.

Then came the second, the third... and the ten thousandth!

Ten thousand tractors, like nails, were firmly pressed against the protective cover, their engines roaring to their maximum, the blue flames spewing from their exhaust pipes turning the sky red.

"Click..."

A crack appeared on the protective shield.

"Keep it up! They're trembling!" Jia Zhuang laughed wildly. "Family, send some gifts! We're about to break down!"

In the sky, the barrage of comments was going crazy.

[The defense has been breached! The defense has been breached!]

Is this the romance of the industrialist party? I love it!

[Jade Emperor, open the door and I'm delivering a package!]

"Snap, snap, snap—!!!"

Under the combined impact of ten thousand tractors, the protective cover of Nantianmen finally succumbed to the pressure and shattered!

The massive shockwave sent the Four Heavenly Kings flying, crashing heavily onto the city wall.

"Charge! Charge!"

Jia Zang, driving the flagship, took the lead, crushed the plaque of the South Heavenly Gate, and rushed directly into the territory of the Heavenly Court.

Tires rolled over auspicious clouds, tracks crushed cranes.

This steel monster from Earth, covered in oil and exhaust fumes, barged into this sacred and inviolable celestial realm.

Jia Zang stood atop the cockpit, facing the howling wind, looking at the magnificent yet fragile Lingxiao Palace in the distance.

He raised his fist, and facing the entire Heavenly Court, facing the supreme Heavenly Dao System, he let out a final roar:

"You old Jade Emperor! Your package has arrived! This time, we're not going to complain; we're going straight to your door for a physical exorcism!"

At that moment, the entire cultivation world and the entire Earth's live broadcast room heard this deafening roar.
