At this moment, in the cave that Luo Xiu had broken through, Luo Xiu stared dumbfoundedly at the scene in front of him. He originally thought that the amount of energy extracted was too little and that there was no way to stop the monster's revival. However, when he saw the scene in front of him, Luo Xiu began to feel a little speechless. He never would have thought that the system's plan to extract energy bit by bit would be this way. The Nine Transformations Soul Return Array's energy supply was originally normal, but under the system's adjustment, the energy supply was clearly leaning towards the array that Luo Xiu had set up before.
At this moment, waves of blood-colored energy swarmed over like a tide, causing Luo Xiu's face to twitch from time to time. He felt as if ten thousand mud horses were galloping through his heart. He felt that he would never believe the system's nonsense again. Looking at the array's controller not far away, who was already in a state of panic, Luo Xiu hurriedly held his breath and cast an isolation array on himself at the same time.
"System, what the hell are you doing?
Didn't you say that we would do it slowly? Then what's the situation now? "Luo Xiu couldn't help but curse in his heart.
"This system has miscalculated the power of this array. Other than the tens of thousands of cultivators, this array also has another source of energy. In order to prevent the monster from reviving, this system can only increase the rate of extraction of energy. However, this is also good. Look at how panicked they are right now. You can tell that they don't suspect us of causing trouble here." The system's words clearly didn't seem to care.
It was indeed as the system had said. At this moment, the single-horned men maintaining the array were all hastily cutting their wrists with pale faces and taking out pills that could replenish blood from their rings.
The five elders who were originally chatting together also began to panic.
After all, the reason why they had the confidence to provoke the human sects was because what they were about to do this time concerned the premise of cooperation between the two races.
However, the upper echelons of both races were on the verge of tears. Even if a hundred Horned Demon experts were to bleed at the same time, they would not be able to satisfy the needs of the Great Demon King at the center of the formation. At this moment, they could see that the blood energy that was rapidly surging towards the formation was slowly decreasing. Furthermore, they could clearly sense the rate of decrease with their cultivation.
"Quick, we have to think of a way immediately. Otherwise, we won't be able to atone for our sins even if we die a hundred times. This time, we can't make any mistakes in our plan."
The two old men with dark golden horns on their heads shouted anxiously. At the same time, the two of them began to use summoning techniques, hoping to summon some of their people to help stabilize the formation.
"You guys go and help too!"
At that moment, Elder Shera, who was standing by the side, was also rather anxious. He hurriedly ordered the Skywing Clan guards who were standing guard behind them to go and help.
The people behind them also hurriedly stepped forward and began to bleed. However, at this moment, the suction force of the Nine Transformations Resurrection Formation increased once again. Seeing that the situation had become even more dangerous, Luo Xiu was also sweating profusely for them.
"System, isn't it a little bad for us to do this? If they know that we're the ones behind this, I think they won't even have the heart to kill us." Luo Xiu couldn't help but crack a joke.
"Host, you have to be careful. The situation isn't right. That Demon King level creature seems to have changed a little. Although his spirit hasn't started to recover, his physical body has already begun to recover its vitality." The System poured a bucket of cold water on Luo Xiu.
"System, if I find a spirit now, do you think I can directly take over his body?" Luo Xiu suddenly remembered that Ji Xuewu's spirit was still in his ring.
"Of course you can. It's just that I can personally decide who the host wants to do this. However, it'll be inconvenient for the host to communicate with this System in the future."
The System joked. This was because when the System recognized the host as its master, it could no longer leave Luo Xiu's control.
"System, do you still remember Ji Xuewu who signed a symbiotic contract with me? I have an idea. If I let her take over a body, I'll be able to control the future of the Horned Demon Race through her."
Luo Xiu's flash of inspiration left the System speechless. This was the rhythm of playing with the Horned Demon Race to the brink of destruction.
"Of course we can. If our plan really succeeds, our path of retreat will definitely be extremely safe. For example, we can join forces to destroy the Skywing Clan." Luo Xiu didn't wait for the System to reply. Luo Xiu continued to fantasize.
The more he felt that his idea was feasible, the better Luo Xiu's mood became.
When he thought of this, Luo Xiu immediately prepared to take action, even though he wasn't far from the center of the formation.
However, if he wanted to silently send Ji Xuewu's spirit in, Luo Xiu had to come up with a good plan.
"Host, your top priority now is to refine your weapon. If you stop refining now, this opportunity will be wasted."
"I've decided to stop immediately. Since I've decided to carry out my plan, it doesn't make much of a difference whether I give this energy to my artifact or to the strange creature in the formation. Moreover, the higher the cultivation of Ji Xuewu after taking over a body, the better she'll be able to help me." Luo Xiu made up his mind and began to think about how to safely send Ji Xuewu's spirit in.
"Then the host has to take action immediately because there isn't much essence blood left from the dead cultivators outside. Once the essence blood outside disappears, it will be very difficult to send her spirit in. Moreover, the host has to think about how to control Ji Xuewu, so that she won't relapse after taking over a body. Of course, if a human's spirit controls the body of a demon, Ji Xuewu's spirit will definitely be affected. If she can safely pass through, then the host's future plans can be immediately put in motion."
The System was also happy with Luo Xiu's idea because in Luo Xiu's plan, if this plane battle didn't happen, then Luo Xiu would have time to develop.
At the very least, they had to wait until Luo Xiu turned the Cultivation World into a technological network era. Then, even if a war broke out, these habits that had gradually formed in the human world wouldn't be erased because of the war.
"Then let's start right away. I have to communicate with Ji Xuewu first."
After saying that, Luo Xiu took out the jade tablet that sealed Ji Xuewu from his ring. After thinking for a while, he moved away from the hole he made and then unlocked the seal bit by bit. Of course, in the current situation, Luo Xiu only dared to unseal a little bit. It was just a gap that allowed him and Ji Xuewu to communicate with each other through their spirits. "Princess, let's not waste any more time.
"Princess, I won't beat around the bush. Now, there is an opportunity for you to safely possess my body and also gain control of a powerful force. However, I'm not very assured that once you gain control of this force, you won't seek revenge. Although there is a symbiotic contract between you and me, I believe that if you want to remove it, there will be a way to remove it. Now, the opportunity is right in front of you. As long as you show enough sincerity and promise that you won't cause trouble for me and my sect in the future, I still want you to reincarnate."
Luo Xiu spoke the truth. After all, he couldn't hide anything at this time. After all, it was his decision to let Ji Xuewu possess the body of the leader of the Devil Race. Maybe Ji Xuewu wouldn't agree.
"What kind of opportunity is there for me to possess someone's spirit?
Let's make things clear first. If your physical strength isn't strong enough, then don't say anything. Boy, I know what you're worried about. As long as I can reincarnate, I promise that as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke me, I won't make trouble for you. At that time, I was also forced to do so. Otherwise, I wouldn't have signed a soul contract with you, a little Yuanying stage cultivator. "
Ji Xuewu's answer was out of Luo Xiu's expectations. Originally, he planned to use some methods to control Ji Xuewu's spirit. However, after hearing how straightforward Ji Xuewu was, Luo Xiu didn't think too much about it. After all, Ji Xuewu still didn't know that the person she was going to possess was from the Devil Race.
"The person I chose for you to possess is the King of the Devil Race. The previous King of the Horned Demon Race was dismembered by our human ancestor, the Reincarnation Venerable. This time, the Horned Demon Race joined forces with the Heavenly Wings Clan and killed tens of thousands of human cultivators. After that, they wanted to revive him with the help of the human's spirit and blood essence. However, there was an accident. His physical body was revived, but his spirit was delayed because there weren't enough human cultivators sacrificed. If the Princess can successfully possess his body, then to the human world of cultivation, it would be equivalent to planting a high-ranking person in the Horned Demon Race. It would be very useful for the easing of the relationship between the two races in the future."
Luo Xiu roughly explained what he knew. However, he concealed the fact that he was the one who destroyed the operation of the formation. At the same time, he also pointed out the importance of this matter.
"What!
Possessing a Devil Race? No way!
How can I possess a Devil Race's body? Wouldn't I be letting down the Great Zhou Dynasty! "
After hearing Luo Xiu's words, Ji Xuewu immediately objected. After all, she was a woman. Wouldn't it be more unbearable for her to walk around the world with the ugly body of a Devil Race than to kill her?
"The Princess has been missing for so many years. You probably don't know what the world of cultivation is facing right now!
Now, humans are being attacked from both sides. The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Heaven Sealing Formation that seals the Heavenly Wings Clan will collapse in a few years. The Horned Demon Race that was exiled by our human ancestors is already looking for a way to return. I can't hide the location token on me for much longer. In addition, the number of experts in the world of cultivation is dwindling. There's no way to deal with the impending war between the races. Once the war breaks out, the Great Zhou Dynasty's royal family will definitely bear the brunt of it. Everything will be a disaster for the royal family.
At most, our sects can just hide in their own secret realms or small worlds created by Loose Immortals. However, the royal family is the actual ruler of the human world. I think the first thing the two armies will do is to mess up the entire human society. Then, eliminating the royal family is a very good method. "
Luo Xiu blabbered on about the seriousness of the matter to Ji Xuewu. Most of the information was true. Of course, Luo Xiu was just exaggerating a little. However, Luo Xiu wasn't worried about being exposed in the future. After all, Luo Xiu was telling the truth and only exaggerating a little.
"Brat, are you sure you're not lying to me?"
Ji Xuewu sized up Luo Xiu suspiciously. At the same time, she thought about it and continued, "Then what should I do to make you feel at ease and allow me to possess your body? You also know who I'm possessing this time.
If this news leaks out, I won't have a good time. As the other half of my contract, you won't have a good ending either! "
"It's very simple. Princess, you just have to swear on your royal ancestors that you will never be enemies with my Heavenly Heavenly Palace. Of course, the prerequisite is that your subordinates, as well as any experts you can influence."
Luo Xiu could only do this. Because of the symbiotic contract, Luo Xiu originally planned to seal Ji Xuewu forever. However, at this moment, Luo Xiu clearly wanted to play big this time.
"I need to take a look first. My soul isn't very stable right now. Last time, I was injured by your master and my injuries haven't recovered much." Luo Xiu could clearly sense Ji Xuewu's hesitation from her words.
"Wait a moment!"
While speaking, Luo Xiu had already returned to the simple array formation that he had set up. Luo Xiu once again released the array formation that sealed Ji Xuewu, only to see a shadow floating in the air. After that, the two of them no longer communicated.
