Chapter 230: Executing the Supreme Command, Wan Moxiao's spiritual power swiftly...
The spiritual power in Wan Moxiao's body quickly dissipated, and his realm also declined rapidly. No matter how the Life Flower produced spiritual power, it could not make up for the rapid loss.
Not long after, it became an ordinary person with no cultivation, but the Soul-Eating Insect did not stop. Its body trembled slightly, and instantly turned into a stream of light, piercing straight into Wan Moxiao's body, and appeared in a mysterious place.
The spiritual roots there were now like a severely damaged ancient tree, cracked and fragile. One section emanated deep malevolence and evil thoughts, continuously generating black evil energy that infected the surrounding spiritual roots.
Wei Mubai immediately locked onto the spiritual root with the evil seed attached through the eyes of the Soul-Eating Insect, and without hesitation, commanded the Soul-Eating Insect to charge forward.
Everything went smoothly!
The evil seed attached to the spiritual root was also swallowed by the soul-eating insect.
But in the next second, another smaller seed suddenly appeared on another broken spiritual root.
It dodged and flew out before the Soul Devouring Insect could pounce on it, heading straight towards Lei Xiao who had sensed something was wrong and pounced on him.
Lei Xiao alertly dodged to the side and released his thunder spiritual power to attack the evil thought seed.
But the seed disappeared for a moment, and when it reappeared, it suddenly appeared beside Xu Hui.
Wei Mubai's face changed drastically. While controlling the soul-eating insect to leave Wan Moxiao's body, he released his spiritual power to protect Xu Hui.
But the seed was too fast, it instantly penetrated Xu Hui's body and rushed straight into the depths of her sea of consciousness.
There, the Qilin's soul bead was being stripped off.
[Peeling countdown... 67, 66, 65...]
This speed was already very fast, but it could not match the speed of the seed. After approaching the soul orb, it immediately transformed into a human face, opened its big mouth, and tried to swallow the soul orb directly.
This is not a seed at all, it is clearly the remnant of the evil god.
I didn't expect his plan to be so detailed. Not only did he plant the seeds of evil thoughts in Wan Moxiao in advance, but he also attached residual thoughts to the seeds.
While everyone's attention was drawn to the seeds, he released the regretful thoughts directly.
Regret is just a thought after all. No wonder it was so fast that Wei Mubai and Lei Xiao were completely unable to stop it.
And it didn't hesitate at all and rushed straight towards the soul orb.
But at this moment, the dangerous peeling was in progress, and neither Xu Hui nor the system could spare the attention to stop it.
The big mouth was getting closer and closer, just a little bit away from wrapping up the soul bead.
At this moment, the soul bead was wrapped with the soul of another person!
It’s Wei Mubai!
When he realized something was wrong, his soul immediately rushed into Xu Hui's sea of consciousness.
Because Xu Hui was not on guard against her, Wei Mubai's speed even surpassed Can Nian. Almost in the blink of an eye, he reached the most secret part of the sea of consciousness. He gave up the effort of exploration and was one step faster than Can Nian.
But even so, there was no time to make any defense, and he could only use his own soul to block the resentment.
"Hmm--" accompanied by a muffled groan, the remnant thought bit Wei Mubai's consciousness like a ferocious beast, and instantly tore a shocking hole in his soul.
The sudden severe pain caused Wei Mubai's soul to tremble violently, as if it was torn apart.
Realizing that he had bitten the wrong target, Can Nian did not stop. Instead, he opened his mouth again as if he had tasted a rare delicacy, and took another fierce bite with endless malice.
Wei Mubai's soul was torn apart in agony, his spirit was shaky and his mind was in a trance.
But he relied on his amazing willpower to quickly wake up from the severe pain.
This is a pity, there is definitely something wrong!
It wasn't the remnant of an evil god, for the bite wound wasn't tainted with even a trace of dark evil energy. Yet, even a mere remnant of that remnant displayed unimaginably powerful strength.
He immediately realized that this was the regret of the ancient god!
It is the remnant that was cut out before the ancient god fell into the evil god!
In other words, it is the true divine thought, not the polluted remnant of an evil god, and does not have the slightest evil aura.
Wei Mubai's eyes instantly lit up, and he didn't care about the severe pain coming from his soul. He rushed forward without hesitation and began to bite the remnant fiercely.
Since it wasn't that evil thing, he had no more concerns.
You can bite me, why can't I bite back?
Just like that, Wei Mubai's consciousness and regret bit each other, regardless of everything, biting each other viciously, with a posture of fighting until death!
After all, the regret is the divine thought of the ancient god, and it is naturally powerful, but Wei Mubai is not a pushover either.
He was born with a soul stronger than that of ordinary people, and later he practiced the "Yuan Shen Jue". If it were not for the limitation of his realm, his soul would be even stronger.
In addition, in Xu Hui's sea of consciousness, the regrets are restricted everywhere. Even if Xu Hui does not have much consciousness to restrict it, it is still not as comfortable as Wei Mubai's.
Here, Wei Mubai felt like he was strolling in his own back garden, and he could control everything at will.
His eyes were bloodshot and his gaze was firm. His determination to protect Xu Hui overcame everything. He desperately bit the remnant of the ancient god, leaving deep marks on the face visible to the naked eye, which was shocking.
It was a pity that it had not expected that it would actually encounter an opponent. It was simply furious. Coupled with the disbelief brought by the severe pain, it became more and more ruthless and tore at Wei Mubai's consciousness with even greater mercy.
The two sides fought back and forth, tearing each other into pieces at a very fast speed.
And the countdown continues.
【......45, 44, 43......】
Wei Mubai didn't know all this. Seeing that there was still a large part of the soul bead, he thought that Xu Hui's transformation was still continuing. In order to protect her, he planned to try his best and swallow all the remaining thoughts even if he died, so as not to affect Xu Hui.
He bit harder and harder, as if he had turned into a ferocious tiger, biting the remnant of the ancient god desperately with reckless determination and ruthlessness.
He seemed tireless and insensitive to pain. There was only one thought in his eyes and mind: protect Xu Hui and fight to the last moment!
As the battle intensified, the remnant of the ancient god gradually lost the upper hand and shrank in size. Its originally huge face became shattered under the fierce attack.
In order to prevent the bitten pieces from affecting Xu Hui, Wei Mubai swallowed them directly.
How could an ordinary cultivator withstand the power of God's thoughts?
Even though Wei Mubai's soul was extremely powerful, he could not withstand the impact of the mental power released by the remnant thoughts of the ancient gods. Every collision was like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, causing his soul to suffer extreme pain and his spirit to become depressed.
Those marks caused by the bites of divine thoughts left shocking wounds on his consciousness, as if they were precisely cut by the sharpest blade in the world. Every wound made him feel so painful that he wanted to die.
But he did not hesitate at all. Like a mad hungry wolf, he ignored the pain and injury and pounced on his prey regardless of the consequences, vowing to swallow it into his stomach.
This crazy move gave him the upper hand in the fierce fight.
Slowly, the remnant of the ancient god became smaller and smaller, and gradually turned into a small ball, which was swallowed by Wei Mubai without hesitation.
However, he is now as broken as a piece of paper about to be torn by the wind, and will fall to pieces with just the slightest pull.
His soul became extremely unstable, and his spiritual light continued to dissipate, as if it would be completely annihilated at any time.
However, he still managed not to collapse, and tried his best to digest the last bit of remnant in his body.
The remnant ran rampant in his body, trying to find a chance to escape, but Wei Mubai suppressed it tightly, not allowing it to rush out again.
In this final fight, Wei Mubai held on and finally digested the regret.
At the same time, Wei Mubai's consciousness finally reached its limit and scattered into pieces, like broken lenses, and could no longer condense into a complete form.
He is about to disappear, the kind of thing that will make his soul fly away!
Xu Hui's heart, which had been numbed by the severe pain, felt unprecedented panic at this moment.
She was in so much pain that she almost lost all emotions, but the intense fear surged over her like a tide, making it impossible for her to ignore it.
She opened her mouth, but could only utter a broken, trembling sound, "System... System... System..."
In an instant, the entire sea of consciousness seemed to feel Xu Hui's huge emotional fluctuations, and became turbulent, like a raging sea.
Lightning and thunder intertwined in it, and the terrifying scene seemed as if the end of the world had come.
The alarm sounded suddenly, sharp and piercing, breaking the tranquility of the sea of consciousness.
[Ding, the soul bead stripping process is blocked! Emergency Notice! Emergency Notice! Abnormal crisis emerges! Host, please remain calm and silent!]
The system prompt sound is urgent!
[Ding, the peeling process has gone off track, and the host's soul has suffered severe damage...]
[Ding, the sea of consciousness is becoming increasingly turbulent, the stripping operation is forced to be terminated, and the host's soul is showing signs of collapse...]
[Ding, the host is facing a desperate situation, the system activates the emergency self-rescue plan]
[Option 1: The host will be forced into a coma, and the system will take over completely... Feasibility 20%... Aftereffects 100%...]
[Option 2: Forcibly interrupt the stripping. The host may become incapacitated... The risk is too high, so this option is rejected!]
[Option 3: ...]
[Option 4: ...]
Final Verdict: After careful calculation, all alternative plans have significant flaws. We have decided to proceed with Plan One: Force the host into a coma to complete the exfoliation mission. Countdown begins. Three, two, one, execute!
"No... please..." Xu Hui struggled in the severe pain, using her last bit of willpower, "First... save Wei Mubai..."
Before she could finish her words, she was unable to resist and was forced into a coma by the system.
【......】
[Ding, received the order, rescue Wei Mubai... Order executing...]
[Plan 1: Gather scattered soul fragments and use the power of the soul beads to repair them... This would potentially cause extremely high damage to the host, and violates the system's primary principle of protecting the host...]
[Ding, the host's command conflicts with system regulations. According to the system's first law - host safety first, execute the highest level instruction: abandon the order and protect the host!]
