Li Yao gnashed his teeth and chuckled in disdain. "Got it. The Blood Stripe Virus is like a key that opened the area deep inside my brain where the negative feelings and dark thoughts are stored. It activated my mental devil and turned me into a scumbag like you."
Bloody Li Yao smiled casually and said calmly, "Mental devils are nothing. They are just useless thoughts that occur during your training. If they are too complicated and redundant, they will hinder the functioning of your telepathic thoughts. Not only will your computational ability plummet, your telepathic thoughts may even overflow, leading to mental derangement. Your soul will collapse, and you will turn into an idiot!"
"How can a mental devil be compared to me?"
"I'm just helping you to think from the other side of the issue."
"There is no need to be so resistant to the infection of the Blood Stripe Virus. The life form of the Blood Stripe Virus is entirely different from that of human beings. There is no conflict of interest between the two parties at all. You can imagine that it is a symbiotic relationship. Such a relationship is very common in the universe. There is no need to mention other species. Take the body of human beings for example.
"Even if you have reached the level of Jin Dan, you will have to live in peace with the lactic acid bacteria as long as you don't get rid of the fleshly body. If you do not reject the lactic acid bacteria, why do you reject the Blood Stripe Virus so much?"
Li Yao said coldly, "My lactic acid bacteria will not bewilder me with voices in my head all the time. They will not affect my will, either!"
"How do you know?"
Bloody Li Yao asked back. "How do you know that the lactic acid bacteria living inside your body are not influencing your brain in a certain mysterious way?
"Furthermore, the resistance you're showing right now, could it be that the lactic acid bacteria in your body is manipulating your thoughts? It doesn't want a new parasitic body to enter and compete with it for this body?"
Li Yao was rendered speechless.
Bloody Li Yao laughed and opened his hands. "Don't be nervous. I'm just talking nonsense. See? I'm always good at thinking from the other side of the issue. We will definitely be able to look at problems more comprehensively, and we will be able to clearly understand the essence of cultivation. Our calculation ability will also be stronger! "
Li Yao could not help but take a step back. "Whatever you say, I will never be controlled by the Blood Stripe Virus!"
"Merge with me. What's wrong with that? "
Bloody Li Yao opened his arms and said sincerely, "Don't you want to find out the truth of the Vulture Plan? Don't you want to know why you drifted to the Tian Yuan Realm? Don't you want to go back to Earth and decipher the secrets behind everything? "
"Don't lie to me. Ever since you could remember, ever since you started having those bizarre dreams about Earth, this question has been troubling you, pestering you, and tormenting you! "
"I am you. The questions I just asked are the same questions that have appeared in your mind countless times in the past. Do you dare say that you don't want to find the final answer?"
"But how difficult is it to find the answer?"
"If Earth does exist, it is very likely to be a Sector independent of the three thousand Sectors of Cultivators. Going to Earth is not as simple as returning to the Tian Yuan Realm from the Flying Star Sector. It is even a hundred times more difficult than jumping from the Tian Yuan Realm to the Empyrean Terminus Sector, the capital of the Imperium of True Human Beings!
"You can live for three hundred years, five hundred years, or even a thousand years right now. You will never go to Earth to find the answer!
"Right now, only the Blood Stripe Virus can help us!
"Do you remember Yan Xibei's' apocalyptic body '? Yan Xibei was a low-level qi-trainer who was heavily wounded and crippled before. He could boast strength close to that of the Yuanying Sector with the apocalyptic body!
"Right now, you have created an unprecedented path of training and advanced into the superlative Jin Dan level. Your personal combat ability is as good as that of the common Yuanying Sector experts!
"If you control the strength of the Blood Stripe Virus and build your own apocalyptic body, what do you think? Think about it. What a terrifying level it will be. Chances are that even the Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators of the Imperium of True Human Beings will be no match for you!
"Your path of training is unorthodox. It is already so difficult for you to form the Core Formation Stage. How many years will it take for you to develop Yuanying according to the regular path of training? You will never be able to enter the Yuanying Sector for the rest of your life!
"I might as well walk the path of the Blood Stripe Virus and practice the 'apocalyptic body' so that I can condense a unique 'Blood Infant'!
"With the apocalyptic body and the bloody Yuanying Sector, not just the threat of the Blood Demon Sector, even the attack of the Imperium of True Human Beings will not be a problem for us. By then, we will both protect the Tian Yuan Realm and boast the strength of a higher level. We will be able to break into the homeland of the Imperium of True Human Beings and even explore Earth beyond the three thousand Sectors!
"Isn't that the best choice?"
Bloody Li Yao's voice was now high, now low, now enchanting, now gentle.
As it was bewitched, its hands grew longer and longer as it extended them toward Li Yao's face. "Come on. Accept the strength of the Blood Stripe Virus. This is the only way …"
Li Yao was at a loss, as if he were caught in chaos. It was not until the bloody hands were about to touch his face that his eyelids twitched violently, and he roared resolutely, "No!
"I won't be fooled!
"Yan Xibei's failure is still fresh in my mind. You are only trying to make use of me to spread the Blood Stripe Virus and enslave all human beings!
"By then, human beings will become monsters that know nothing but slaughter and do not know how to build, just like the Titan Warriors that were enslaved by you!
"In your dreams. I will not allow such a monster like you to occupy my body!"
Li Yao waved his hands abruptly, raising a storm of spiritual energy that tore the bloody figure into thousands of tiny blood pearls. A weird face seemed to be popping up inside every blood pearl.
In twisted laughter, the blood pearls vanished into thin air like soap bubbles under the sunlight.
Then, a voice that was both familiar and strange popped up in Li Yao's head. "But I've already occupied your body!"
Li Yao was greatly alarmed, as if he had woken up from another weird dream.
The jump in the four-dimensional space was about to end. His infinitely unfolded body gradually returned to the three-dimensional state.
However, the left half of his body was twisted weirdly and completely out of control!
His left eye was like a burning coal ball, but it was also like a shining searchlight. Even without a mirror, he could sense that his eyeball had turned into the most dazzling blood red color.
Like a virus, the blood quickly spread to his limbs and bones along his eyeball. After controlling the left half of his body, it invaded the right half of his body!
"You've woken up too late!"
The voice deep inside his head sounded as if it had been sent by himself through a spiritual crane. "Why do you think your soul recovered so quickly after it was heavily wounded by the star child's explosion?
"Of course, it was because I helped you repair your soul in secret!
"However, when I was repairing your soul, I also 'weaved' some special stuff into it.
"When you entered the four-dimensional space, you poured your spiritual energy into Jin Dan without any restrictions, increasing the speed of Jin Dan's body to the highest so that you could break into the Yuanying level. Your soul was greatly affected, which gave me a perfect opportunity!
"Right now, there is nothing that can stop me from occupying the body!
"The Heaven's Origin Sector, which has a population of tens of billions!
"There are only tens of millions of people on the entire Iron Plateau. Even if the dozens of space zones of the Flying Star Sector are gathered, there will be no more than ten billion people. But on the Heaven's Origin Sector alone, there are tens of billions of people who can provide mental power for me incessantly!
"Ahhh!"
Li Yao screamed miserably. Streaks of blood gradually extended out of his left eyeball to his right eyeball.
Li Yao was in so much pain that he was rolling on the ground. He smashed his head with all his might, but his left hand was completely out of his control. Even when his right hand was about to attack his left eyeball, his left hand instead blocked the fierce attack.
"Stop the meaningless resistance. It will only add to your pain!
"What's wrong with being the host of the Blood Stripe Virus? The Blood Stripe Virus will not interfere with your war against the Blood Demon Sector and the Imperium of True Human Beings. Instead, it will give you a hand!
"After all, the source of the Blood Stripe Virus' strength is the killing of the host. The fiercer your fight is, the stronger the Blood Stripe Virus will be!"
Li Yao held his head hard and bellowed, "I will not let you succeed. I would rather die than let my body be occupied by killing!"
He used all the strength in his body to slam into the door of the training room and rushed into the cockpit.
Because of the short distance and the clear target, Firefly had adopted a fully automatic navigation system. There was barely any need for manual control.
In a few seconds, they would finish the jump and appear in the sky of the Tian Yuan Realm.
If they were lucky, they might even be able to jump into the gravity sphere of the Heaven's Origin Planet directly!
Tears of blood flowed out of Li Yao's eyes. Dragging the left half of his body, which was shivering crazily, he struggled to crawl to the control panel.
In a corner of the control panel, locked by three layers of barriers, was a self-destruction rune array!
"Do you want to die together with me? It's too late! "
The shrieking laughter in Li Yao's head was more and more ear-splitting, but his consciousness was more and more blurred, as if he had sunk into a bloody swamp and was drowning. Then, a stronger, colder, and crueler consciousness took over and gradually surfaced, controlling his entire brain.
"Right now, 95% of your brain is under my control.
"In a few seconds, we will arrive in the Tian Yuan Realm to meet our family and friends. Ding Ling Dong, Yuan Manqiu, Fiend Blade Peng Hai, Solar Eclipse Jiang Shaoyang …
"Rest assured. I won't miss any of them.
"Look. We're here. The Heaven's Origin Planet is right in front of us. The lovely Heaven's Origin Planet!"
The bloody Li Yao laughed crazily. Firefly shook violently. The light beam that was previously a mess became clear again, displaying everything captured by the crystal cameras.
An enormous planet was floating in front of them quietly.
Bloody Li Yao's laughter came to an abrupt halt. For the first time since he showed up, there was shock on his face. "It's impossible. This is …"
Almost at the same time, a high-frequency soundwave that was inaudible to human ears echoed deep inside the control panel of Firefly.
