Chapter 360: Unease
"Heavenly Demon..."
Fu Jian found this term quite unfamiliar.
He frowned as he looked at the person in front of him; Wang Jixuan felt somewhat unfamiliar today, especially with that new red mole on his forehead.
Fu Jian asked, "So, Wang Zheng, what's the price?"
"The price is, these Demon Soldiers might be despised and criticized for the rest of their lives."
Wang Jixuan calmly narrated:
"If you want quick success, there are actually only three approaches.
"The first is similar to the blessings given to Spirit Cultivators, the second is directly seizing others' power, and the third involves some unconventional Cultivation Techniques.
"My plan is to use all three approaches.
"In this battle, we captured enough Blade Beast Crystal Cores, so transforming one hundred thousand Demon Soldiers won't be a problem.
"The Crystal Cores can be used to create a Formation, which can bless them; after gaining basic mana, I will teach them Soul Binding and soul-breaking techniques, giving them a way to conquer Blade Beasts, and seize their souls and Crystal Cores to strengthen themselves.
"At the same time, this is the only method I could think of to deal with the Five Interstellar Gates a few months later."
Fu Jian pondered for a few seconds and asked, "A million, is it enough?"
"It's more than enough."
Wang Jixuan shrugged:
"Among this million soldiers, surely there is a suitable individual for this cultivation path; I will treat them fairly at first, but once I discover someone with good talent, I will give them more advanced Cultivation Techniques.
"By the way, we need to build a team of Buddha Soldiers to prevent the Demon Soldiers from losing control after I leave.
"As for your Mechanical Civilization, in the future, there will be enough time for it to grow sustainably, deeply integrating with human civilization, rather than being released like Gu Worms."
Fu Jian nodded: "Take three days first, using three hundred people as a trial."
"That's doable... In that case, I'll make some Magic Artifacts to test aptitude, and you send people to find those who can light up these artifacts, the brighter, the better."
Wang Jixuan laughed and said:
"In the third phase of my Little Electronic Sound Temple, I'll directly start teaching Demonic Skill.
"Why are you all standing? Sit down... Wife, come over here."
Lingtong was clearly taken aback.
She blinked repeatedly, first to confirm if Wang Jixuan was possessed, and second to confirm if he was calling her as 'wife.'
Lingtong was hesitating, only feeling a force pulling her in, she flew uncontrollably, gently landing in the arms of the man on the sofa.
Wang Jixuan smiled and embraced her, letting her lie on his lap; his fingers quickly tapped on Lingtong's forehead and the top of her head as strands of pure clean energy flowed into her body.
Lingtong whispered, "Everyone is still watching."
"Let them watch, we are a couple."
Wang Jixuan pinched her adorable, crystalline ear lobes:
"Take a break, I'm checking your injuries and helping you complete the Foundation Establishment.
"Your cultivation might be limited due to body modification and personal talent, but making you retain youth for two hundred years with a prolonged life expectancy is quite simple.
"We're a couple after all, I can't refrain from giving you some benefits." ReadersupportatM*VLEM*PYRmadethistranslationpossible.
Lingtong didn't know how to refute.
Strands of clean energy flowed into her body, and the comfort made her feel like she was soaring on clouds, while Wang Jixuan did not act inappropriately in front of others.
"Mm," Lingtong responded softly, closing her eyes to enjoy the experience.
Fu Jian watched Wang Jixuan for a few seconds and then turned to head towards the kitchen: "I'll start cooking."
Zhou Zhengde quickly said, "I'll help too."
"You stay, Zheng De," Wang Jixuan said, "I'll help improve your physique later and then have Amina test the Core Circuit on you."
Zhou Zhengde sheepishly scratched his head: "Haven't I already tried it? It doesn't fit."
Amina nearby nodded lightly.
Wang Jixuan laughed: "That's because I wasn't there."
"Uh, okay," Zhou Zhengde walked over to the side of the sofa beside Wang Jixuan and slumped down, "Why do you seem so much more assertive now?"
"Probably a change in mental state; who knows when I'll revert back."
Wang Jixuan clicked his tongue:
"Don't stress over this; I'm not some major villain.
"Line up first, Amina?"
Amina, who was holding a book and admiring the illustrations, looked up: "Can I also take advantage of your enhancement benefits?"
"No, but I can help you heal," Wang Jixuan laughed, "Tell us again about your experience in the Ancient Civilization ruins, and we'll analyze it together."
Lingtong, who was about to fall asleep, instantly perked up.
However, as Amina began recounting the situation in detail, Lingtong was peacefully curled up beside Wang Jixuan within two minutes, breathing evenly.
The Daoist toyed with her ponytail, the light in his eyes flickering.
Having just learned about this matter, Zhou Zhengde and Red Snake couldn't help but widen their eyes.
Previously, Wang Jixuan's demon thoughts lost control because of a trap set by the Residual Spirit from the Ancient Civilization... The latter even wanted Gao Huating to become a cultivator through dual cultivation...
Zhou Zhengde was speechless.
"If she wants to go this way, can't she just discuss it with you? Since it's for power and the bigger picture, Lingtong wouldn't be jealous, right?"
Wang Jixuan, Amina, and Red Snake simultaneously startled.
Zhou Zhengde shrugged: "Isn't that the logic? What's the big deal with a one-night stand? Come on, it's the Fortress Era."
Wang Jixuan changed the subject: "Have you had any other relationships since you started dating Xiang Tiantian?"
"Of course not," Zhou Zhengde said earnestly, "But when I was single, I did have casual encounters, that's not cheating, it's mutually beneficial."
Wang Jixuan:...
Wuliang, the Heavenly Venerable;
The Demon Lord is also limited.
