Chapter 905: Choices (6)
In Donghua City, Christina asked, "Zhou Bai, what do you plan to do next?"
Zhou Bai: "Just continue with the original plan, enhance my power, study the Nine Disasters of Heaven and Man. Change this world with power and knowledge."
"To sum it up, just lie on the bed every day to cultivate, and leave other things to my clone."
Christina sighed in relief, "Oh~~ that's good. Speaking of... are you a Homo sapiens?"
Although Christina had long suspected this, it was the first time she saw Zhou Bai completely admit this identity in front of her.
Zhou Bai nodded, "What's up?"
Christina hurriedly said, "Nothing, nothing, Homo sapiens are fine. About Ming Yue... don't think too much, I've already told you, women are unreliable, it's the cats and dogs at home that truly care about you..."
Zhou Bai: "You don't need to comfort me, I anticipated this situation long ago, that's why I don't like any woman, how to date someone from a different race?"
Christina wagged her tail and nodded, "That's good, well... but if you want to talk to me, you can always find me, I'm great at chatting..."
Zhou Bai impatiently said, "How many times do I have to say it? I'm a bit unhappy, but it doesn't affect my next actions."
"Why are you so harsh?" Christina said aggrievedly, "I'm just concerned about you. Ming Yue and Xuan Nu are both nice, but if it doesn't work out, it's okay, I can introduce you to better girls in the future..."
"You live in my head all day, who could you introduce that I don't know?" Zhou Bai said disdainfully, "As long as you quickly finish the cultivation of Primordial Dao Zang 07, I'll be satisfied."
Christina's head drooped over the cat scratcher, weakly saying, "It was all because I maintained the transformation too long last time, now everything I do feels a bit off."
Just as Zhou Bai was urging Christina, Xuan Nu suddenly hugged Zhou Bai tightly from behind, "Zhou Bai... are you unhappy?"
"A bit." Zhou Bai nodded, reaching out to stroke Xuan Nu's hair, kneading it in his hand like a toy.
Seeing Zhou Bai's unhappy expression, Xuan Nu also became downcast and asked, "What can I do? I want to help you."
Zhou Bai sighed, "I need more power, need more followers." As he spoke, a drop of black goo oozed from his hand, gathering together into another Seed of Madness.
This was Zhou Bai using pollution levels to make Seeds of Madness. He had been harvesting the pollution levels of followers in Donghua City to create Seeds of Madness, further expanding his group of followers.
But feeling the pressure from Heavenly Demon and Tianzun, Zhou Bai felt this speed wasn't fast enough.
He needed a more powerful army to provide him with more pollution levels and unleash an unprecedented Madness Disaster.
Hearing this, Xuan Nu nodded, took the sticky Seed of Madness from Zhou Bai's hand, and said earnestly, "I understand, I'll think of a way."
Zhou Bai added, "You can select more cultivators to train by your side as well."
Zhou Bai planned to cultivate more followers with high charisma, so his subordinates could have more high-end combat power.
He thought to himself: 'Keep cultivating followers, also strive to get the communication technology from the Heavenly Demon side as soon as possible, to have a truly mechanical troop of my own, and keep an eye on the mechanical followers I currently have.'
"Got it." Xuan Nu held onto Zhou Bai, thinking: 'To give Zhou Bai more followers, I need to make him able to extract more Power of Deformation, to create more Longevity Dao Fruits.'
While thinking, Xuan Nu suddenly had a new idea.
So that night, she called ten cultivators.
These ten cultivators were both followers deceived by Yuanshi Tianzun and foolish followers who were shared with charisma abilities.
They arrived in the basement, looking at the Saintess before them, not knowing what she called them for.
A transformed Xuan Nu had blood wings unfurling behind her, blood-colored halos at the back of her head, with dots of green light radiating out: "Yuanshi Tianzun has decreed, you will receive a new blessing and gain even more powerful strength."
Jiang Weishan and the others showed excited smiles, lying down together: "Thank you for the Tianzun's grace!"
Looking at the ten cultivators before her, Xuan Nu licked her lips with a scarlet tongue, "Then let's begin cultivation."
Jiang Weishan and the others started practicing various martial and Taoist arts. Under Xuan Nu's charisma boost, their thoughts were lively, Primordial Spirit efficiency extremely high, their understanding of various martial arts progressed tremendously.
And with Zhou Bai continually harvesting their Power of Deformation, they could train endlessly without burden, no longer worrying about being twisted by the Heavenly Dao, leading them to aberration.
Watching the group of cultivators diligently practicing, the blood ring behind Xuan Nu shimmered slightly, blood light mixed with green light radiated out.
An unbearable agitation swept through the entire underground space, causing the ground to ripple, as if each block of brick and stone had come to life.
Jiang Weishan and others bore the brunt, veins bulged on their faces instantly, experiencing a feeling of utter collapse in mind and body, a kind of internal madness gradually bred.
But the next moment, the Power of Deformation in them was drawn out, restoring them completely to normal.
Seeing their changes, Xuan Nu knew her thoughts were correct.
'These humans are like crops, where I provide the fertilizer, triggering the growth of Power of Deformation within them, then handing them over to Zhou Bai to harvest, so we can have more Power of Deformation, producing more Longevity Dao Fruits.'
Thinking of this, the blood light behind Xuan Nu, mixed with green light, swept out again, Jiang Weishan and others were immediately stimulated, and the madness surged within them.
Xuan Nu was like watering a field, continually stimulating Jiang Weishan and the others, observing as Zhou Bai persistently drew out their Power of Deformation, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
'Great, this efficiency is far higher than before.'
'Indeed, mortals are our best nutrients.'
Watching the humans before her tremble, deform, go mad and then return to normal under her and Zhou Bai's power, the blood light behind Xuan Nu's head flickered more intensely.
'Faster.'
'Faster... Zhou Bai needs more Power of Deformation, more followers...'
Watching the group nearing deformation repeatedly but being stopped each time, Xuan Nu subconsciously increased her strength.
With a surge of blood light sweeping over her from behind, Jiang Weishan suddenly roared, as blood vessels surged from under his flesh.
"Me!" Jiang Weishan's eyes showed despair and disbelief, continually reaching towards Xuan Nu's direction, only to see her coldly watching from afar.
The other nine cultivators screamed together, faces full of mania, then rapidly transformed, soon all becoming aberrant bodies.
Xuan Nu was slightly stunned, "Completely deformed? Trouble... was the last force too strong?"
She gestured with her finger, watching Jiang Weishan, now deformed, crawling obediently at her feet.
"What should I do with you?" Xuan Nu looked at the aberrant body before her, "Though it's inevitable that all humans should become aberrant bodies, now's not the time."
Xuan Nu stroked the blood vessels swaying outside the body, smiling, "But this actually looks much better than before."
