The Three Demons were destroyed, but the entire Solar System was reduced to ruins.
Almost all the cultivators who frequented the planets were killed or wounded; only those who eked out a living on the edge of the star system or in some asteroid belts survived.
The entire galaxy was bathed in red light, a price that was considerable.
But in the end, their revenge plan succeeded, perhaps because of the love of the Solar System for the Divine Land people, or perhaps because the divine mandate flowing in the hearts of the people exerted its power.
Although Li Xingkong had prepared the Thousand Mountains Method, it was of no use at this moment.
With the accumulation of good fortune over many years, their plan succeeded in one fell swoop.
Rest, and more rest.
This great battle was extremely costly for them.
Magic Power, mental strength, and even the soul were all deeply weary.
Even cultivators get tired. Although when their Magic Power is abundant, each cultivator seems like a perpetual motion machine, they are still just stronger individuals.
After resting for nearly half a month, Li Xingkong successfully obtained the documents of the Convention during this period.
Because the Kilometer Arc and the Holy Church of Truth were already somewhat at odds, and Li Xingkong also had some goodwill towards the Kingdom of Fixed Light, this document granted Li Xingkong considerable authority.
He was directly assigned to manage the surrounding star regions, while the three members of the Holy Church of Truth were transferred to his subordinates with a single order.
Originally, this might have been a plan devised by the Holy Church of Truth to annoy the Axiom Arc, but now it seems that this arrangement has clearly saved Li Xingkong a lot of trouble.
Three Heavenly Demons?
Li Xingkong glanced at them again; weren't those his three good buddies?
He was still thinking about how to cover it up after the three of them successfully possessed his body, but now it seems that he doesn't need to worry about that for the time being.
As long as I have the transfer order, I can keep the three of them here in Divine Land.
Cover up? What's there to cover up? I can't be bothered to cover it up at all.
Having obtained the documents, Li Xingkong reviewed the planets of the entire Solar System again, ensuring that, at least, the planets wouldn't be littered with corpses like before.
While Li Xingkong was tidying up, the rogue cultivators who had been wandering in space began to probe, exploring the interiors of various planets.
Wow, what a good night's sleep!
The first to wake up was Ge Baoqi. Now, he occupied the body of the Envy Demon, and was obviously much better off than his previous ball-shaped body.
"I almost died, how could I not be exhausted?"
Li Xingkong's voice came over, and following the sound, Li Xingkong himself appeared.
"Frog Fun, Brother Li, you have no idea how much meat I've eaten to get to this size..."
Ge Baoqi was about to complain, but the Demon of Envy Demon's current physical condition was clearly much better than before.
He lightly got up from the ground, still a little disoriented.
It feels like my key bindings have been tampered with; it just doesn't look right.
"Oh dear, I'd completely forgotten. They've changed bodies now."
Ge Baoqi and laughed.
"How is this new body?"
Taking advantage of Ge Baoqi's familiarization with the body, Li Xingkong also used his Divine Sense to examine the body of this so-called Holy Church of Truth.
Perhaps due to its constant interaction with Axiom Arc, the body of this Holy Church of Truth also bears very obvious traces of artificial modification.
However, compared to the standard body with its Kilometer Arc, the transformation by the Holy Church of Truth is even more unrestrained.
Each person's body was as if it had been stitched together, with various organs performing strange functions forcibly inserted into their bodies. This resulted in the three Heavenly Demons being different and having different forms.
"My body is still the best; whoever wants this damn body can have it."
Ge Baoqi frantically waved his hands and feet, becoming increasingly agitated the more he tried to control himself.
"I think Brother Ji and the others are in better physical condition. If I could switch places with them..."
"Smack!"
As he spoke, Ge Baoqi slapped himself.
Clearly, these weren't the words he intended to say, but for some reason, they just slipped out naturally.
"What's wrong with this mouth? Can't it be disciplined?"
"Perhaps the fusion of soul and body will take some time."
Although Li Xingkong knew about the concept of possession, he had never actually tried it, and could only speculate about it.
"Cough, cough."
"You seemed so calm and collected, but you were the first to finish."
After a few coughs, Ji Nanzhi also woke up. He looked like he was seriously ill, and with the Demon of Hatred Demon's slender body, he actually looked somewhat pitiful.
"Ji, Brother Ji, it's all luck, it's all luck."
Ge Baoqi chuckled dryly a few times.
He would never say that it was because the Envy Demon also had grievances against the other two demons in private, which led Ge Baoqi to use many backstabbing tactics. It was precisely because of this that his familiarity with the Demon of Envy Demon was much greater than that of the others.
Whether it's luck or skill, success is what matters.
Ji Nanzhi coughed a few more times, then sat down quietly and began to sense his body.
"These Three Demons have been in the world for so many years, and finally, their existence has come to a reasonably amicable end. Now, it's time to revive the Solar System."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Nanzhi felt a tightness in his heart.
"No, we've only wiped out the enemy, how can we just let it go? Our revenge isn't over yet, we must fight our way back."
For a moment, Li Xingkong felt that there was even a hint of red flame flickering in his eyes.
"You also..."
Li Xingkong sensed something was wrong; this wasn't the kind of emotion Ji Nanzhi.
"So... it seems we've all been influenced by this demonic force."
Ge Baoqi pondered for a moment and came up with a plan.
"Perhaps it was the soul-devouring during the possession that caused the souls of us to merge with those of the Three Demons, and their greatest powers—charm, jealousy, and hatred—are also inadvertently influencing us."
Following this line of thought, Ji Nanzhi quickly came up with a conjecture.
"The impact seems weak at the moment, but we are currently undergoing a rebirth. If we don't find a way to address this, these emotions may gradually dominate our thinking."
"No way, we've taken down the Three Demons, and now we're becoming the new Three Demons? The dragon slayer becomes the dragon? This kind of plot isn't funny."
"It's too early to draw conclusions. Let's see how Old Ox. If he's also affected, then things will get complicated."
Wake up!
At this point, Ge Baoqi didn't hold back and stepped forward to kick the Old Ox, sending it tumbling over.
"Stop fooling around~"
Mumbled Huhu in his sleep, the Old Ox groggily woke up.
"What are you doing? My beloved concubine and I are having a great time. We're not going to court, we're not going to..."
The sleepy Old Ox woke up, shook its head, and scrambled to its feet.
"I think this guy has been influenced too, what do you think?"
Ge Baoqi pursed his lips.
"I don't think so. Didn't it do this before?"
Ji Nanzhi's smile was enigmatic.
"Wait a minute, where's my little brother? Wait a minute, has anyone seen my little brother?"
Once fully awake, Old Ox suddenly seemed to have caught a severe illness and began frantically searching around.
"Hmm, the impact is quite serious. Perhaps we should kill him first?"
