Help?
To lock down the combat power of this clone, Wang Jixuan still couldn't let his consciousness leave the clone at this moment, opening his eyes to look at the stone slab in front.
Fifth wants to stir up trouble?
She's abandoning this puppet; could she be planning to show up with her main body...? Will a white-haired old granny pop out from inside?
Wang Jixuan imagined this scene, but something felt off.
He remembered that Fifth previously referred to other spirit practitioners as old geezers.
"How can you help me?" the Daoist Priest asked through the clone.
"Heh."
The stone slab wall carried by the maidservant emitted strands of white light, and the Fifth spirit practitioner inside used her original voice to transmit to everyone.
This voice was indeed young, clear and melodious, quite pleasant to hear.
She said, "I won't beat around the bush with you. You want the spiritual energy within Xing Dian's body, but now this spiritual energy is constantly dissipating. Presumably, it's caused by the incompatibility between the spiritual energy circuits in his body and the soul you dispatched. I can help you, making his spiritual energy circuits resonate with the soul you dispatched, but I also have some conditions."
Wang Jixuan said directly, "Speak, what technology do you want?"
"I want the route map you use to circulate spiritual energy within the clone's body. I just experimented with the spirit slaves sleeping in my spire, but I couldn't grasp the essentials."
Wang Jixuan secretly thought, 'Impressive.'
What the Fifth spirit practitioner wanted went straight to the root of a cultivator's practice.
Breathing and exhaling, the circulation of the Heavenly Circuit, this is the foundation for cultivators to resonate with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. The biggest difference between various cultivation methods lies in the different routes of circulating the Heavenly Circuit.
"That's impossible," Wang Jixuan said in a low voice, "If you can help me lock down the combat power of this clone, I will definitely repay you handsomely."
The black seashell shook its head while listening.
'Wang Zheng is still naive. These spirit practitioners and spirit energy users are birds of a feather, extremely cunning. Empty promises should have some substance. A sentence of 'I will definitely repay you handsomely'...'
"Alright then," the female voice from the stone slab became lazy, "Anyway, it's not a big deal for me. Remember you owe me a favor."
She agreed!
The black seashell instructor's expression was hard to describe.
The stone slab brewed a pale golden light, and two beams of golden light shone from within. One beam shone on the pale-faced young woman, and the other beam shone on Wang Jixuan's clone.
A phantom of a circle appeared on 'Xing Dian's' back.
The circle slowly expanded, flickering and surrounding, and thirty-six symbols appeared within it. Several of these symbols were erased by the golden light, and new symbols were generated on their own, falling back into 'Xing Dian's' body.
Wang Jixuan was always vigilant.
If the Fifth spirit practitioner took the opportunity to brand her own alien soul, he would immediately withdraw the alien soul or sever the connection between the primordial soul and the alien soul.
However, that didn't happen.
When the circle returned to Xing Dian's back, Wang Daochang quickly discovered that the Qi that was slowly collapsing within Xing Dian's body had returned to normal, and the demonic Qi that was originally impossible to suppress could now be directly suppressed with mana.
— When he fought Meng Jin, this phenomenon of collapse had already begun to show signs. The essence was the incompatibility of body, soul, and law. Using the Dragon Python Devouring Heaven Technique's soul-shifting大法 to forcibly suppress it could only be temporarily fierce.
It was still a bit of a pity.
Some mana had already been lost, reducing the upper limit of mana. Even if this clone could be successfully refined in the future, if he cast the demonization method again, it would only have six or seventy percent of its peak strength, equivalent to the early to mid-stage of the Golden Core Realm.
It would be enough for the time being.
'It can be used to engage in various demonic and evil methods.'
With a thought, Wang Daochang's dragon python alien soul fell asleep within Xing Dian's body, and his mind returned to his main body, opening his eyes from within the X-Armor.
Wang Jixuan struggled out of Mudan's embrace, quickly walked to 'Xing Dian's' side, pulled out and melted the silver needles one by one, took back the storage magic tool, and took out a large handful of new silver needles and inserted them into Xing Dian's major acupoints.
Rumble—
Vibrations continued to come from inside the mountain.
Battles broke out again near the Snow Mountain Base, as the allied semi-human mechs fought against the base's armored units.
Due to the impact of the great battle just now, even a slight vibration at this moment meant that the place was about to collapse.
Wang Jixuan urged, "Let's go first. They might come back."
The black seashell had already arranged for everyone to evacuate.
Wang Jixuan looked back at this place, feeling a bit emotional. There were still a group of wounded inside, people abandoned by the spirit energy users during the previous retreat.
'Forget it, there's no need to be overly compassionate. I can barely take care of myself.'
Wang Jixuan picked up 'Xing Dian' and carried him on his shoulder, leaping out of the collapsed underground area in one stride.
The stone slab carried by the mechanical maidservant let out a mumble, "Not even a thank you. That rude fellow is really rude."
Mudan turned her head to look at the stone slab and said with a bright smile, "Thank you."
"Tch, mechanical bodies don't deserve to thank me."
The young girl, the girl whose body was previously borrowed by the Fifth spirit practitioner, slowly opened her eyes at this time, with a dazed look in her eyes.
She felt like she had a dream.
In the dream, she had a serious illness and was sent to the Snow Mountain by her family, undergoing a very painful treatment, and then being sent to a stone slab, and the stone slab shot out a golden light.
Since then, she seemed to have become an outsider, always watching 'herself' do various things.
However, she was now healed, and... what was this power...
"Let's go," the voice from the stone slab urged, "What are you doing spacing out here? From now on, you will be my exclusive spirit slave. I've helped you heal your body, so serve this spirit practitioner well, and this spirit practitioner will naturally not mistreat you."
"Oh, yes, spirit practitioner, my lord."
The girl said weakly and quickly followed.
......
Half an hour later.
When Wang Jixuan and the others had already joined up with the D5 Emergency Mobile Force that had descended from the sky, they quickly evacuated from the D2 Comprehensive Combat Zone.
The D2 Comprehensive Combat Zone began to organize a press conference to launch the harshest protest against D5.
Inside the stealth transport plane returning near the Spirit Energy Capital, a group of spirit energy users who were usually high and mighty were now gloomy and silent.
'Once, I had a super luxurious team.'
Meng Jin was very regretful.
He didn't know why Xing Dian would suddenly defect. This old geezer, who should have been a staunch force of the Spirit Energy Capital, suddenly shouted "Sword ah" "Happy" "Evil is subjugated" "How happy" and rushed up.
Rushing up was one thing, but he was particularly fierce.
If he hadn't reacted in time and forcibly met him, desperately stopping this guy, at least half of the confidants he brought would have been lost.
Even so, the losses were extremely great.
And this black gas entwined in their bodies... this black gas was trying to devour their brains. Fortunately, they had a teammate in charge of logistics support who didn't go down, and this teammate had extremely special purification abilities, which barely suppressed the black gas.
In one battle, four trusted subordinates died, one of whom was an extremely precious awakened spirit energy user whom he had spent a lot of effort to cultivate and win over.
The opportunity to awaken was extremely rare.
Four others were severely disabled.
This also caused Meng Jin to have deep confusion.
What exactly was going on with Xing Dian?
His spirit energy didn't have a substantial transformation. Was it... was it the way he used his power...
Meng Jin suddenly thought of a possibility, and then his eyes became even more fiery, and his resolute face had a bit of ferocity.
Yes, the Black Storm.
The only variable was the Black Storm.
This method of using spirit energy, different from the spirit energy circuits of spirit practitioners, this brand-new combat method, sharp cold weapons, sword light that dragged for dozens of meters, black gas that could directly attack their souls, and those methods that he couldn't understand at all, must have originated from the Black Storm.
Although the Black Storm itself was still at the B+ spirit energy stage, the technology it had mastered could cause S-class spirit energy users to transform!
Xing Dian was the example!
So, it wouldn't be difficult to understand that Xing Dian betrayed the Spirit Energy Capital for this technology.
Xing Dian must have seen a new world and opened the door to a new world.
The Third Civilization!
A magical and powerful spirit energy civilization!
"Hahaha! Hahahaha!"
In the cabin, Meng Jin's laughter made the surviving people look at each other.
"Is the boss too sad and gone crazy?"
"Black Storm, we must get him! At all costs!"
Perhaps infected by Meng Jin's laughter, everyone in the cabin quickly cheered up.
They had also opened their eyes this time.
One person said, "Boss, should we kill our way back? The other party may have already evacuated. That's D2, they wouldn't dare to stay long, and the Sixth Elder has sent a large number of spirit energy troops to support."
"No need," Meng Jin said indifferently, "Xing Dian has already betrayed, they will quickly evacuate, and the Fifth Stone Slab has also fallen into their hands. Next, if the Sixth Elders don't fall out with Fu Jian, then they are almost equal to a slow death."
"Boss, what about the brothers who died?"
"Treat their families well."
Meng Jin said in a deep voice:
"The responsibility is on me this time. I didn't consider the variable of Xing Dian.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ post!
"He should have defected to the Black Storm because of his power... Everyone, if we can also get this power, human civilization will surely be glorious again in our hands!"
Everyone nodded.
"Heal up first. I'll go to the Silent Sphere. This time, I will exaggerate our casualties and put pressure on the Sixth Elders."
Meng Jin said in a deep voice:
"Even if they are as weak as them, they should be afraid when they see the images we recorded this time.
"This power just happened to fall into Fu Jian's hands..."
The transport plane flew steadily onward, slightly more energy-efficient now with fewer passengers on the return journey.
Meanwhile, within the squadron speeding towards the D5 Integrated War Zone, the scene was quite the opposite.
… …
"Crap! I forgot something important!"
Zheng Shiduo suddenly smacked his forehead, yelling and cursing:
"That material! The S-grade material! It's in Area Three. I found it back then, but I forgot to give it a shot!
This material has the potential to create an SS-level powerhouse!"
Wang Jixuan, who was meditating in his seat, smiled wryly upon hearing this.
He had forgotten about it too.
At the time, he was only thinking about how to confront the enemy. He had discovered that material before.
Although the clone inside was somewhat incomplete, if it could be rescued, it might be cultivated into talent like Wu Man.
However, what's done is done. Wang Jixuan didn't care too much.
He looked at the stone slab in front of him, and the young girl sitting beside the stone slab, looking uneasy.
It wasn't a body snatching?
This girl's soul had previously been collected into the stone slab by Spiritual Cultivator Number Five.
It seems that Spiritual Cultivator Number Five is not the extremely evil person that Number Four described… …
"Sir, would you like some fruit juice?"
"Mm," Wang Jixuan took the orange juice from Mudan, inwardly beginning to take stock of his gains this time.
It could be said that it far exceeded his previous expectations.
They came here originally to eliminate Xing Dian and prevent him from stepping into the SS-level spiritualist realm, but the result was that Xing Dian was refined by him, his body becoming a puppet controlled by a foreign soul.
There was one thing Wang Jixuan was actually embarrassed to say.
Because it was too demonic.
— Refining Xing Dian's soul also gave Wang Jixuan a little benefit. The Dragon Python Devouring Heaven Technique improved once again.
'If this continues, I'm really going to have to start a new sect, alas, a new demonic sect.'
Wang Daoshi thought with a bit of helplessness.
The unexpected gain this time was eliminating several of Meng Jin's subordinates, and incidentally gauging how much strength Meng Jin, the head of the Spiritual Management Council's Tribunal, had.
That guy is an awakened spiritualist who is extremely good at close combat.
From Meng Jin, Wang Jixuan also felt a powerful aura, which was not an aura generated by combat power.
'This is a somewhat tricky commander-type figure.'
In this battle, the two sides can be considered to have formed a deadly feud.
In the little notebook in Wang Jixuan's heart, one name was removed, and another name was added.
In fact, the Tribunal and he were already enemies. Fu Jian and the Six Old Ones were mortal enemies. He is now firmly on Fu Jian's side. In the future, he and Meng Jin will only target each other even more.
'Tsk, after going back, there's more work to do. Refine a battle puppet, and cultivation must also enter the Core Formation Realm as soon as possible.'
'It's still more enjoyable to fight head-on with immense magic power!'
'I tried it today. As long as I enter the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, I should be able to exert the combat power of Xing Dian's clone today. Relying on the methods of talismans, spells, formations, and artifacts, it is not difficult to deal with these spiritualists.'
'However, awakened S-level spiritualists and SS-level spiritualists are still too strong. I can only wait until the Nascent Soul Realm to be confident in fighting many enemies alone.'
Wang Jixuan's heart became more and more fiery when he thought of this.
As long as he cultivates diligently, he will have a bright future!
"Um, cough," Aunt Dragonfly strolled over from the side and sat in the chair in front of Wang Jixuan, "I think we should talk about salary and benefits, boss."
Wang Daoshi was stunned for a moment, then remembered something.
Aunt Dragonfly had been exposed.
She used to help him secretly, and he would give her talisman water and pills as a reward.
Aunt Dragonfly was captured back by Spiritual Cultivator Number Five, and Bristle Bear was previously hunted down by Xing Dian's subordinates, and now he can't go back to Spirit Capital at all.
Wang Jixuan remembered something and quickly asked, "Your family and teachers…"
"The teachers are fine, but my family may have some problems."
Aunt Dragonfly took out a cigarette and was about to light it when Mudan ruthlessly snatched it away.
"Smoking is not allowed in the cabin."
Aunt Dragonfly rolled her eyes and muttered, "But it's okay, my family broke contact with me a long time ago, also to protect them… The teachers will try their best to protect them. After all, the Natural Faction still has nearly 30% of the power."
Wang Jixuan nodded and said apologetically, "This time, I owe you a favor. Feel free to make any requests. I will help you get an identity in D5 later."
"Teach me that ability to move around in rocks."
"No problem."
The stone slab suddenly lit up, and that crisp, sweet voice appeared again: "You're discriminating against me!"
"Of course, she is my ally, and you were my enemy yesterday."
Wang Jixuan said calmly:
"Shouldn't you compensate her? She was exposed because of your actions."
"Hmph, I was your opposing force at the time."
"How about this, you give me a way to help Auntie step into the S-level, and I can help you repair Spiritual Cultivator Number Four, he said a lot of bad things about you."
"That's worth considering, do you really have a way to kill spiritual cultivators?"
"I should."
"Then…"
Mudan suddenly said, "Sir, Professor Shen has an urgent call. There is a problem with Number Four's stone slab!"
