Chapter 772: Chapter 350: Actively Becoming a Demon_2

A familiar Qi appeared within Wang Jixuan’s perception range.

Inexplicably, the Dao Heart of the Daoist became somewhat stable.

Lao Fu?

Outside the alloy door, Fu Jian lowered his head as he entered a room that should have been a resting place for high-ranking officers.

Mu Dan saluted, "Commander."

Shen Haiteng stood up, hurriedly shaking the sleeping Red Snake beside him awake. Red Snake kicked Shi Niang Lingtong in the calf.

Fu Jian nodded, not responding to them, frowning as he walked to the small window to look inside.

"How is Wang Zheng?"

"Still hasn’t improved," Mu Dan said softly, "I’ve gathered all the data on the officer’s body and spiritual energy. Among them, thirty sets of data showed anomalies, which haven’t disappeared but increased over the past three days."

Fu Jian sighed, "This should be the backlash from his previous excessive use of power beyond his level, something he vaguely mentioned to me before."

Mu Dan said, "The point that triggered the officer’s anomaly should be Amina."

"Amina?"

"The officer seemed to exhibit a desire for Amina’s power, anomalous movements of spiritual energy within, followed by endocrine disorders and abnormal brainwaves began to appear."

Fu Jian crossed his arms, quietly pondering.

Lingtong asked, "Commander, can modern medicine help him?"

Fu Jian replied, "I’ve already asked the supercomputing center to look for a solution, but we only have a superficial understanding of cultivation."

Mu Dan added, "Actually, we have another hidden concern now... Wu Man and the others are likely running out of stamina, these past three days they haven’t closed their eyes."

Fu Jian suddenly asked, "Where’s Gao Huating?"

"Should we call her over?"

"Try calling her over..."

Wang Jixuan’s voice suddenly sounded, "Don’t call her; she could also be one of my desired targets to devour."

Everyone’s spirits lifted.

Because Wang Jixuan’s voice still sounded clear, just as it was in the past.

Wang Jixuan simply explained:

"I am currently on the brink of becoming a demon. The backlash was about to explode when Huo Rong attacked Fortress 76 back then, but I suppressed it."

"Now, demonic thoughts surge in my heart. Relying on Wu Man and their Buddhist scripture, I can temporarily discern which are my original thoughts and which are the demonic thoughts."

"I currently have two methods in mind."

"One is to voluntarily destroy part of my cultivation, step back from my current level, which would lengthen my cultivation cycle."

"The other is riskier, but I am more inclined to it."

Fu Jian immediately said, "Use the safer one."

"I want to use the second one," Wang Jixuan stubbornly said, "I can’t afford to lose my spirit, or after self-cutting my cultivation this time, I’ll lose my drive, and there’s no hope for reaching the pinnacle I’ve dreamed of in the future."

Fu Jian asked, "What do you need me to do?"

"The second plan can only be executed with your help."

Wang Jixuan paused in his speech, organizing his thoughts, and continued to transmit:

"Better to channel than to block."

"I am fighting against demonic thoughts, but these demonic thoughts differ from my original heart demon, firstly stemming from my own discontent and resentment, and secondly from the killings I’ve committed in the mortal world."

"I want to actively become a demon, enter the Blade Beast out-of-control area, and go on a rampage."

"When the Blade Beast defeats me, try to save me... This operation is very difficult..."

"I’ll manage it," Fu Jian decisively said, "I need three days to prepare enough forces."

"There’s not that much time," Wang Jixuan responded solemnly, "Wu Man and the others can sustain it for at most half a day."

"Alright, then half a day. Stabilize yourself first."

"Mm." Wang Jixuan’s voice fell silent.

Fu Jian decisively turned around.

"Mu Dan, connect to the command channel for comprehensive dispatch, you are authorized to temporarily take over the autonomous mechanical network."

"Yes!"

"Lingtong Shenhai, convene four Half-human Mecha Sword Formation Groups, maintain constant vertical alignment with Wang Zheng from the air."

"Yes!"

"All Huan Ying Branch comprehensive combat zones, our side will be conducting a Blade Beast annihilation operation; all deployable mobile forces should stand by to the extent possible."

Fu Jian’s orders were issued one after another.

The various combat zones, which had just been relaxed for a few days, were suddenly shrouded again by the clouds of war.

In the room, the black Qi surrounding Wang Jixuan continued to be released incessantly.

The state of the eight figures around him was already extremely poor. Zheng Shiduo’s clothes were soaked with sweat, and the others were more or less pale. Even Wu Man, who was in the best condition and the strongest, had large beads of sweat on his forehead.

But they showed no signs of stopping;

As long as this young man in front of them needed it, they could drain the last drop of their spiritual energy.

Even the soul.

...

Gao Huating inexplicably felt a little restless.

As usual, she engaged at the ruins of Base 76, practiced singing in the morning, assisted in Uncle Tai’s studio work in the forenoon, learned various scientific knowledge in the afternoon, and recorded and wrote songs in the evening, daily filled with substantial and valuable activities.

Gao Huating could sense that her singing increasingly attracted more and more ’elves’.

Each time she sang with deep emotion, the light points in the air would swiftly gather towards her.

She knew this was spiritual energy and Qi.

Thus, whenever Gao Huating practiced singing, Tree Man Beta, along with the Spiritual Ability Users guarding this secret base, would come around.

Their power would slightly but clearly improve every time.

For several consecutive days, only Tree Man Beta remained to listen to her practice.

The atmosphere of the secret base suddenly turned rather heavy.

Just returned here, Amina also seemed weighed with worries.

In the afternoon, in the well-lit small ’study’, dressed in pajamas, black-framed glasses, and a simple braid, Gao Huating sat slightly entranced behind the desk.

’Did something happen?’

’Alas, I don’t know if Black Storm got hurt.’

She pursed her lips, shook her fair neck, and gently patted her cheeks a few times to focus her mind and then looked down at the book.

Hmm?

Gao Huating suddenly saw a faint halo appear on the booklet in front of her, the text below seemed like tadpoles starting to wiggle, forming line after line of small words.

[Now, you need to go to the Cultivator’s side.]

[He has entered a backlash phase.]

[Only you can save him, by merging your body and emotions, intertwining with him.]

[This will benefit you immensely and will help him regain clarity.]

[But before you go, you must learn this mantra and imprint it in your heart at all times, this is the only way to save him.]

[You can’t tell anyone, even him, because you’ll take away half of his cultivation, enabling you to step into the ranks of a Cultivator, also disrupting his current relationship.]

[But trust me, he will take responsibility for you, and his current partner can’t be with him for over a hundred years, you can totally wait for a hundred years.]

[Becoming a Cultivator is a better plan than inheriting my now lost civilization.]

Gao Huating felt invigorated.

She was no longer the timid songstress she once was.

This sudden message on the pages...

"Haven’t you already lost the ability to perceive things outside the ruins?"

Gao Huating’s voice slightly trembled, quickly questioning:

"Didn’t you say having Amina hold the key to the entrance and exit is enough?"

"Also, didn’t you mention my feelings for Black Storm are admiration from a fan to an idol, not supporting a romantic relationship?"

She suddenly took a deep breath.

"What did you do! Who exactly are you!"

Rustle rustle.

The book swiftly flipped open, slowly floated, each character flew off the pages, forming rows of text before Gao Huating.

[I am a piece of your obsession, I am already deceased.]

[Now only you can save him.]

[I’ve already created the conditions for you, now you just need to contact Mu Dan.]

[Remember this mantra, you must remember it, otherwise you’ll die, he’ll become a murderous mad demon, which would hurt him more than killing him.]

Gao Huating trembled all over, resisting, tightly closed her eyes to avoid seeing those words, yet those words directly imprinted on her heart.

Ring ring ring!

The communicator beside her suddenly rang.

It was the communicator Mu Dan had given her, and Mu Dan’s message displayed on the small screen.

[Xiao Huating, I’ve hesitated for a long time but still wish to ask for your aid. The officer needs help, but it might be life-threatening for you.]

How could...

Gao Huating suddenly felt as if she lost all strength, collapsing onto the ground.

Meanwhile.

In a magnificent hall as if accommodating the entire starry sky.

Wearing a golden gauze dress, the woman’s ethereal figure knelt quietly, her slender frame almost triggering the uncanny valley effect, with a crystal ball before her.

Inside the crystal ball, Wang Jixuan’s apparition was quietly sitting cross-legged;

And beneath the crystal ball, a group of faint black flames constantly burned.

Her expression was indifferent, waiting quietly for the plan’s smooth implementation.
