The fighting and killing were obviously a joke.
However, among the three of them, it was clear that Old Ox had to pay the highest price, because even his gender had changed.
All three of them woke up, and what they had previously doubted was now confirmed.
The Three Demons' original ability to control their emotions is influencing their souls, granting them immense power while simultaneously corrupting and assimilating their will.
Possession comes at a price.
This kind of emotional contagion is only in its early stages, but it is already a rather serious problem for cultivators.
You should know that since they started cultivating, their hormones and emotions should have been completely under control, but now they are at risk of losing control.
If this gets any more serious, it's not impossible that it could lead to inner demons.
Even more concerning, once the influence reaches a certain level, it becomes questionable whether they can maintain their true selves.
"Well, anyway, the problem with the Heavenly Demon is solved. At worst, the three of us can go back to our old ways and find a place to make a living."
Ge Baoqi was quite easygoing; after all, this wasn't the first time they'd run away.
"Running away again? Seventh Brother, can't you think of something else?"
Old Ox looked indignant. He'd had enough of this life of fleeing once; he was too lazy to go through it again.
"Hey, you know what, just look at what we've done—extracting people's life force from their souls, refining planets for blood sacrifices—no good person would do something like that."
"Never mind the reason, the moment the three of us step out here, if we show our faces in Divine Land, we'll be considered extremely threatening figures."
Ge Baoqi spat. Did he want to run away? No, he had no choice.
Although they killed the Heavenly Demon, the blood debts on their hands were still there. What the three brothers did was not much better than what the Heavenly Demon did.
"You know what, you really have to admit, most heretical cultivators don't have your skills."
Old Ox rolled his eyes at Ge Baoqi. If they weren't all in cahoots, Old Ox would have suspected that this guy had really betrayed them.
"Speaking of which, what about the souls afterward? Now that the Heavenly Demon has been eliminated, it's time for everyone to undergo Samsara..."
"But the problem is, there aren't many people left in the Solar System, so if everyone wants to Samsara, there aren't any newborns."
Speaking of this, Ge Baoqi's head was spinning. Without newborns, Samsara was like a skilled cook trying to make a meal without rice.
"Emm, there's another problem."
Tang Huhu voice came through; her physical body was inconvenient to move, so she could only communicate through the red thread.
"My brother refined their Fortune Golden Core; can they still Samsara now?"
The Ji Nanzhi and the others looked at Li Xingkong changed.
So this guy is really ruthless; he can refine pills whenever he wants.
"Hiss..."
"What are you thinking! If it weren't for the special circumstances, just the few of you would be enough to become the main soul of the Myriad Soul Banner."
Li Xingkong was speechless. If he hadn't received the news and rushed back, these guys might have really turned him into a once-in-a-lifetime demon.
The Fortune Golden Core only borrows Qi Luck and does not tear the soul apart, so it will not affect their entry into Samsara.
But given the current state of the Solar System, it's clear that one Samsara alone cannot save it.
Without saying a word, Li Xingkong reached forward, half of his hand disappearing into the space. When he withdrew it, the Fortune Golden Core was already in his hand.
"Since we are all comrades in the fight to eradicate the Heavenly Demons, there is no reason for us to simply Samsara like this."
With a swift movement, the Fortune Golden Core scattered like a honeycomb, releasing countless souls that lingered above the hall. The sheer number of souls was so great that the entire hall was enveloped in a thick fog.
Li Xingkong Divine Sense, covering the entire Venus and several nearby planets, and then his Divine Sense began to probe the randomly flying souls.
Each time Li Xingkong detected the appearance and memories of a soul on several planets, he would conjure a corresponding physical body with his Divine Sense, then shrink the soul into a ball and place it into the new body.
Since the body itself is read from the memories of the soul, it naturally fits the corresponding soul perfectly, just like being reborn.
The vast army of souls dwindled rapidly in number, while the number of newborns on several planets increased dramatically. It must be said that for Li Xingkong now, this was merely a basic move, and it didn't even take long for him to use his computing power and Magic Power.
The dense fog formed by souls gradually thinned, and in less than half an hour, not a single soul remained in the entire hall. All the cultivators who had provided the fortune were reborn through Li Xingkong's methods.
Because they still retained their memories of previous cultivation and had not forgotten their cultivation techniques, a huge network of red threads spread out with their resurrection.
"Alright, now that the souls have all dispersed, this Fortune Golden Core is nothing but an empty shell."
Li Xingkong weighed the bullet in his hand, as if it were just a toy.
With a flick of his wrist, he tossed the spent bullets back the way they came to Tang Huhu.
Since Tang Huhu has already refined the Record of All Living Beings Weeping Blood, even if the Golden Core is empty, let her keep it.
"Besides these people, what about the souls that participated in the possession?"
After all, besides these souls who were already prepared, they had sacrificed blood from several planets.
During the possession, a large number of souls participated in the battle. Although only a few survived, the matter of those souls still needed to be resolved.
The ability to take responsibility for one's actions and to find ways to make amends is already a key difference between good and bad people.
"Well, strictly speaking, their souls have merged with yours after this battle. Although your souls are still primarily dominated by you, there are quite a few other elements mixed in."
Li Xingkong enveloped Ge Baoqi with his Divine Sense and began to observe him closely.
His soul is now composed of a very complex structure, as if it has been divided into three parts.
His own soul occupied half of the body, while the Envy Demon's soul occupied the other half, and the last part was a mixture of souls obtained through blood sacrifice.
This composition was quite chaotic. When Li Xingkong observed its operation, he discovered that during its operation, other parts of the soul could control the body for one or two moments.
This is terrifying for cultivators.
Having two personalities in one body is tiring enough, but these people have more than two.
