Living in the Doomsday and Becoming an Immortal Alone

The Blade Beasts over there believed they had won, accomplishing their predetermined goal;

The humans here didn't feel disadvantaged either.

Only Master Wang;

After finishing his teaching, his mind had to shift back to Galino to prepare for gathering intelligence, a truly laborious fate.

The Daoist specially summoned Gao Huating to play music nearby, focusing on observing the actual situation of the Blade Beast Civilization.

Galino was taken underground, heading downward through subterranean passages.

Blade Beasts typically operate within a depth of two to three thousand meters underground, which is also the effective detection depth of human satellites.

But Wang Jixuan quickly made new discoveries.

Below the layered, ant-like underground passages, some intermittent routes leading downwards are hidden.

The Earth's crust thickness is unevenly distributed, with many areas high in temperature and pressure, often accompanied by magma. Even if Blade Beasts can survive in such environments, they need to consume their own Spiritual Energy, unable to endure long.

But this time, Wang Jixuan's Second Battle Puppet was relayed underground for most of the night, arriving at the destination.

Wang Jixuan used his Spiritual Sense to search the surface, quickly determining that this should be near the Third Pillar, the core area occupied by Blade Beasts.

'I have truly delved deep into enemy territory.'

The Daoist didn't come in vain. His Spiritual Sense expanded like flowing water, inspecting conditions that human satellites usually cannot detect.

The Third Pillar sleeps within the earth.

Nearby, there are large amounts of glowing stone slabs, half of them immersed in the Magma Lake beneath, appearing to provide comfort.

But the secret here is not a 'Pillar Blade Beast Bathing Diagram.'

Wang Jixuan quickly discovered a massive cave system with his Spiritual Sense.

The caves seem to serve as 'Nurseries,' home to dozens of bloated Blade Beasts [Mother Insects], tools for the Blade Beast Group's reproduction.

Every few minutes, they produce eggs the size of a person, which are moved by waiting special Blade Beasts to hang at various cave locations.

The caves are filled with dense [Insect Eggs].

Occasionally, an egg cracks, and within it crawls out a humanoid Fake Spirit Slave.

With closer inspection, Wang Jixuan finds humans in comas constantly being sent near those Mother Insects, which swallow a human every few minutes with their mouthparts.

These Mother Insects resemble a human industrial assembly line?

And those eggs...

Wang Jixuan suppresses disgust as he probes further and soon witnesses the entire process of Fake Spirit Slave conception.

These humans are all living; after being swallowed by [Mother Insects], special Blade Beast eggs are implanted in their abdomen, gradually eroding the human soul, secreting peculiar Spiritual Energy materials that envelop the human organs, enhancing and altering them.

The Crystal Core within Fake Spirit Slaves is actually the product of the Blade Beast Eggs merging with human bodies.

Post-merge is absorption and a progression, ensuring Fake Spirit Slaves have decent Spiritual Energy prowess upon 'factory release.'

'These creatures are truly nauseating to the core.'

Wang Jixuan cursed inwardly.

He moves his Spiritual Sense from the cave system producing Fake Spirit Slaves, continues to search, and quickly glimpses a series of orderly underground structures.

The Blade Beast's regular Nursery Caves;

Clusters of Glowing Stone deliberately cultivated by Blade Beasts;

High-level Blade Beast's Interactive Exchange Plaza.

Blade Beasts seem to have a complete social network; this society is distinctly hierarchical, with the lowest level Blade Beasts deprived of activity rights, typically only sleeping or becoming cannon fodder or material for comrades' upgrades during warfare.

Basic Blade Beasts hardly possess any self-awareness.

The more Wang Jixuan observes, the more profound his understanding of the theory that 'Galino is the individual entity' within the Blade Beast Civilization becomes.

Besides the Pillar Blade Beasts, Galino, King-level Blade Beasts, and Sub-King Level Blade Beasts, most other Blade Beasts lack thinking capacity.

General Level Blade Beasts mostly execute commands or instinctively wreak havoc.

Meanwhile, Wang Jixuan discovered a Galino rushing toward him.

Exposed?

Then eliminate this Galino directly, unleash the Alien Soul's killing spree, and seize pure Demonic Qi to infuse the Heavenly Demon Soldiers!

Wang Jixuan was instantly filled with battle spirit.

His Spiritual Sense expanded outward, already devising subsequent killing plans.

Suddenly;

Wang Jixuan's main body displayed an expression of shock like seeing a ghost, and the Second Battle Puppet controlled by the Alien Soul twitched several times. En*j%o@y#in#g the st%or@y%?$ D$i%s-co!v*e@r. m^or+e. on M+|+V|L*EM*6%PYR.

The Great Demon Moluo of Wuliang.

His Spiritual Sense spotted something at a farther location!

An experiment lab!

A lab surrounded by Blade Beasts, appearing like a small underground city, inhabited by thousands of humans!

The lab seems to be conducting some project, observed visible... cloning experiments?

Apparently, this lab has been operational for decades; Wang Jixuan can see extensive rust, and many old researchers have shackles grown into their flesh.

What are the Blade Beasts up to?!

The Blade Beasts raised a group of human scientists?

Master Wang felt absurd, and his Spiritual Sense suddenly detected more.

He saw a beautiful palace embedded underground, its decor exceedingly luxurious, with a group of beautiful, perfectly-proportioned, unclothed Female Fake Spirit Slaves kneeling in the corners.

Wang Jixuan's Spiritual Sense slightly probed, quickly forming several black lines across his forehead.

A square pool, supposedly a bathing pool;

Within, a seated naked stone sculpture soaked, possessing distinct facial features, deft carving detail, the likeness and proportions surprisingly...

Himself!

If he weren't aware this was false, Wang Jixuan might believe he was inflicted with petrification magic!

No, wrong, this sculpture is him yet not him.

Wang Jixuan examined closely with his Spiritual Sense, discovering the sculpture's eyebrows resemble those of his early rebirth period, mainly reflecting Mu Liang's original appearance.

The face mirrors the heart, as his current visage gradually shifts toward his previous life.

What's happening?

What's going on?

It's outrageous enough that Blade Beasts maintain a human science lab, but why is there a palace with his statue in it...

Wang Jixuan was experiencing a brain storm just as the Galino reached near.

Wang Jixuan, previously eager to strike, now urgently wished to conceal his identity, see if he could blend past this Galino unnoticed.

Then investigate;

What secrets are hidden here?

Gugugu——

Galino issued a command.

Wang Jixuan quickly calmed his Mental State, allowing the Alien Soul to perfectly integrate with the Battle Puppet, simulating the weakened soul sensation in Galino form.

Several High-level Preachers stepped forward, cautiously lifting the Second Battle Puppet with Spiritual Energy.

The Galino delicately maneuvered with its forked blade limbs, causing the glass enclosure around the Second Battle Puppet to shatter by itself, and the Second Battle Puppet began to 'regain consciousness' slowly.

Much like a human awakening from a coma;

The Second Battle Puppet activated several Spiritual Energy Circuits within.

Gugugugu——

[Child, you are quite special.]

This Galino seemed to have discovered something, its thin wings unfurled, displaying the glow of Spiritual Energy Circuits, expanding light rings onto Wang Jixuan's Second Battle Puppet.

The Second Battle Puppet gently trembled.

[You appear to be a new consciousness birthed from our reclaimed human bodies.]

[This discovery excites me.]

[Maybe, we can proliferate in this way, individual proliferation, without relying on High-level Preachers consuming each other for the slim chance of mutation.]

Wang Jixuan felt enlightened.

The initial birth of Galino possibly stemmed from High-level Preachers mutating.

[This discovery needs to be shared with them.]

[Child, take a good rest first.]

Wang Jixuan: Guーー

Then he was carefully lifted by Preachers using Spiritual Energy and placed in a spacious cave not far away, lying on a flat stone platform.

The stone walls around were engraved with numerous Spiritual Energy Circuits, Wang Jixuan sensed abundant Spiritual Energy.

The Second Battle Puppet feigned unconsciousness;

While Wang Jixuan's Spiritual Sense fixated on the distant underground palace.

Great, mingled through.

Next step, how to lure out the owner of this palace.
