"Although the performance of the air cavalry is eye-catching, the main reason for them to further change their attitude should be the deterrence brought by Hei Xuan's Heavenly Rank Beast Kings. Even if it is the two powerhouses of the Yuan Kingdom or the Yan Kingdom, there are only two or three Heaven Rank powerhouses that each side has now. ”

Skipping this aside, Jiang Yan is more concerned about another issue.

"Zhi Brain, the remaining four Heavenly Rank Beast Kings that we captured that were imprisoned in the sealing room of the stronghold, have they changed their minds now?"

"Not really. 』

"What about mental condition? You should have a constant offensive stimulus that keeps them awake, right?"

"Yes, according to your orders, it has been carried out for four days and four nights, and at present, all four of them have fallen into a state of mental exhaustion. 』

At the beginning, before the Red Jade Building attacked the Barbarian Bone Beast Group, with the cooperation of Hei Xuan, he used his own various heavy rune weapons, including the electromagnetic giant cannon, to surround and kill all the Heavenly Rank Beast Kings in the core area of the Barbarian Bone Mountain Range.

Some of these beastmasters were captured and sealed after being seriously injured, and some of them were unable to control the strength of their attacks and were killed on the spot.

There were a total of eight Heavenly Rank Beast Kings captured alive.

Ziqu, Huang Ming, King Kong Storm Ape, and the three-headed monitor lizard were the first to recognize the form and accept the network agreement contract given by Jiang Yan after being defeated, and joined the command of Hongyu Tower.

In addition, there were four other Heavenly Rank Beast Kings, but they had always refused to give in, even if they knew that the Red Jade Tower had completely conquered the entire Beast Circle of the Barbarian Bone Mountain Range, they were unwilling to let go of their dignity.

For these four diehards, Jiang Yan does not intend to wait forever.

He called up the vision of the slave machine guarding the scene, observed the state of the four beastmasters again, and even cautiously scanned it with his ability.

"Hmm...... It's good, it's all to the point where it can be forcibly subdued, so ......"

A cold glint flashed in Jiang Yan's eyes, and he issued a summoning order to all the Heavenly Rank Beast Kings under his command.

[Hei Xuan, Huang Ming, Zi Qu, King Kong (King Kong Storm Ape), Green Luo (Three-headed Monitor Lizard), I'm sorry, I have to disturb your cultivation a little. 】

Several Beastmasters quickly responded one by one.

Hei Xuan said in a troublesome tone: [Ah, what's the matter, boy?]

[What's the matter?]

"My lord, please command. Huang Ming and Ziqu are more straightforward.

This is King Kong's reply, and there is obviously a bit of roughness in his voice. Its character is indeed a reckless man, and his favorite way of fighting is to fight the enemy recklessly.

[I'm sorry, my lord, my injuries haven't healed yet, I'm afraid I won't be able to play for the time being......] Lu Luo replied apologetically.

This three-headed monitor lizard was knocked off two heads and half of its body by the Brute Bone Emperor Dragon last time, and it was the most seriously injured in that battle, and now that a few days have passed, its injuries have only healed most of it, and its state is not suitable for fighting with a strong man of the same level.

[Don't worry, Lu Luo, this time the opponent is those four stubborn prisoners, you don't need to move, just lend me the power of will! ] Jiang Yan explained with a smile, and by the way, he secretly made another note to Hei Xuan in his heart.

He decided that as long as he waited until his strength was enough, he would immediately revise the terms of the network agreement of this product and change it to the level of the lowest level of hard labor!

[Then I will feel much more at ease.] Hearing Jiang Yan's explanation, Lu Luo was obviously relieved, if it was just a clash of wills, it would not cause any hindrance to its recuperation.

Now after the conquest of the core area of the Barbarian Bone Mountain Range, at the location of the Yuan Qi nodes where more than ten Heavenly Order Beast Kings originally lived, the Red Jade Building has built a new stronghold and a cultivation room with the Juyuan Great Array, with the increase of the Juyuan Formation, and the concentration of Yuan Qi at the node position is more than ten times higher than when these Beast Kings occupy it, and the Black Xuan Beast Kings are currently occupying a cultivation room to their heart's content, swallowing the Yuan Qi provided by the Juyuan Array, and subtly improving their strength.

Although it is not an overnight effort for cultivators to improve after the Heavenly Rank, these cultivation rooms can also greatly accelerate the progress of their cultivation, so that several beast kings almost don't want to come out after entering.

The offering of the rich Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in the cultivation room could also double the recovery speed of Lu Luo and King Kong's injuries, which was much more effective than the treatment of the Red Jade Tower's medical team for them, who were already extremely self-healing.

[Okay, I'll use the network permission to induce your will now, and you all cooperate.] 】

Jiang Yan announced, and then used his ability to link the soul IP of one of the four beast kings that were sealed in the forbidden room, and connected the will of the five beast kings of Hei Xuan and the other five through the network, and threw them into the target's soul consciousness sea together.

'Roar—you, traitor!!'

As soon as he entered the other party's sea of knowledge space, Jiang Yan and the five great beast kings were greeted by a brown giant beetle that was shaped like a unicorn fairy and roared with a mind full of anger and hatred.

[Does it still make sense to say these now?] Jiang Yan pursed his lips and asked: [Let's ask again, do you have any plans to surrender?]

'Don't think ——! die!!'

Looking at the soul body of the giant beetle that roared up on the opposite side, Jiang Yan shrugged his shoulders and began to assign tasks.

[All people, come on, suppress this guy for me!Don't stop until I subdue it!]

[Tsk, ——!!]

[Chirp-]

[Roar——]

The beast kings around Jiang Yan all swarmed up and began an extremely unkind siege.

Five-to-one, and the other party's spirit is still in an extremely weakened state that has been tortured for several days in a row, although its soul itself is fine, but it's just like ordinary humans who almost 'died of immortals' after staying up all night for a long time, with a weak buff, and the real sense of physical and mental exhaustion, the power that can be exerted has been greatly reduced.

So very smoothly, the other party's soul was suppressed, and Jiang Yan then stepped forward and started the invasion and cracking operation very calmly.

Even if he doesn't have much ability to resist, but he is worthy of being the soul of the Heavenly Rank Beast King, Jiang Yan is still very difficult to crack, and Jiang Yan must continue to borrow the support of the network handsets to supplement the consumption halfway.

After half an hour passed, Jiang Yan relaxed: [Huh...... Get. Alright, you can stop it. 】

————

Handset Name: None

Race: Alien Beast (Land King Giant Worm)

Level: Level 3 and Order 6

Program Software: Egg Laying, Will of the Insect King......

————

Although he had subdued another Heaven-level Beast King, Jiang Yan was not in a good mood now.

Because in the process of subjugating this time, he realized that he was most concerned about one of the problems recently, that is, after the previous battle in Iron Tooth City, he suddenly discovered the reason why his heart had changed inexplicably.

The original Jiang Yan was an ordinary ordinary person in a generally peaceful modern society in his previous life, and his temperament tended to be that of ordinary people. After crossing over to this realm of transcendents with great power to himself, he also gradually changed due to the changes in the environment.

But no matter what, from the original strong humanity to the current almost ruthless view of the human life of the same race, the time of change in the middle is only a few months, which is really a bit abrupt. Especially when Jiang Yan hadn't noticed the cause of change before.

Jiang Yan didn't realize the reason for the change in his mind, which means that this change was carried out imperceptibly, and the cause was very easy for him to ignore in the past.

After perceiving this problem, in order to find out the inducement, Jiang Yan deliberately divided a small part of his mind into a small part of his mind with the method of 'distraction and multi-use', and completely isolated it from the ontology, turning it into a small consciousness clone, and then asked it to conduct a 'comparative detection of self-state' on the ontology every short period of time.

As a result, in just one day, the trigger was found, and it was found in the half hour just now.

- The trigger for Jiang Yan's own change in his own mind was his own ability, more precisely, due to the change that occurred after he used the ability of "data invasion" on the souls of other living beings.

When Jiang Yan invaded the souls of other creatures, he needed to crack their psychic consciousness, and in this process, he inevitably had to contact the target's psyche and analyze it in depth. It's the same as 'if a student wants to solve a math problem, he must first understand the meaning of the problem'.

However, whether it is Jiang Yan's previous life or the current Canglan Domain, there is a famous saying, called 'Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black'.

Put a young wolf into a group of dogs, and over time, the wolf will also think of itself as a dog when it grows up.

After too much contact with the spiritual consciousness of other living beings and even in-depth analysis and understanding, Jiang Yan himself will inevitably be affected by some 'infection', if it is only a few, the impact is not great, Jiang Yan can resist it.

The bad thing was that he used the "data intrusion" ability too much.

From the beginning of the first group of Blade Feather Birds, Jiang Yan had been continuously using abilities to subdue hundreds of alien beasts on a scale of hundreds or thousands, and he had deeply contacted and analyzed the mental will of these alien beasts every time.

The impact of the analysis of the mental will of a single alien beast is very small, but the number of them is too much.

This phenomenon of abusing abilities continued until the power of the alien beasts under Jiang Yan's command reached a certain level, and he figured out the use of the 'network protocol' to make the new target voluntarily submit, so that Jiang Yan no longer needed to use the ability of 'data invasion' to collect new sub-machines in person.

However, the impact caused by the fledgling stage of the forces under his command has become an established fact, and some of Jiang Yan's mental nature has subtly shifted towards the ideology of the alien beast.

'Ignoring human beings and taking the killing of human life for granted' is the most striking feature of this change of mind, in the values of the beast of the jungle, whether it is a "beast" or a "human", except for the same race, the rest are either prey or enemies.

That's a ...... I didn't expect my ability to have such a hidden danger. ’

After figuring out the trigger, Jiang Yan couldn't help but feel distressed.

The ability of "Data Intrusion" was very helpful to him, and now that the power of the Red Jade Tower in the Canglan Domain has developed, he doesn't use it much. But in the future, he will definitely leave the Canglan Domain, and if he wants to develop his power in a new environment, the large-scale use of "data intrusion" is the fastest and most convenient way to achieve results in the initial stage.

But considering this hidden danger that will cause changes in his heart, Jiang Yan can only try to avoid the overuse of this ability.

He also had to be glad that he had discovered it early this time, and the vast majority of the targets of the data invasion had so far been relatively simple alien beasts, and only a few humans with complex and changeable minds. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for Jiang Yan to say what his character would become if he would be infected.

'In the final analysis, it's still my own state of mind cultivation that is not stable enough, if the spiritual will reaches the eternal realm of eternal indelibleness, what is this side effect!...... but Jiang Yan pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought of another meaning of the side effects of this ability:

If I consciously take the initiative to undergo this kind of spiritual infection, and keep my own mind, and use it as a whetstone to hone my state of mind, it would be a good way to cultivate my mind. ’

As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Yan's mind became active again.

[My lord, what's wrong with you?]

At this time, Ziqu's puzzled voice woke Jiang Yan up from his thoughts.

[uh...... It's okay, just a little distracted. Jiang Yan remembered that he still had three Heavenly Rank Beast Kings left to subdue, and the five Great Beast Kings such as Ziqu were still waiting for his instructions.

[Alright, let's go ahead and get rid of these stubborn guys as soon as possible!]

Jiang Yan took back the trumpet consciousness clone that was responsible for self-monitoring, and then took the five major beast kings to subdue the remaining three beast kings using the ability of "data invasion".

This time, Jiang Yan always paid attention to keeping his heart, and used all the side effects that came with the data invasion as a whetstone to temper his own mind, because he had to be distracted to resist the reverse infection of the other party's mind, so although the strength of the remaining three beast kings was one or two orders lower than that of the land king giant worm, Jiang Yan took more time to subdue them, and each one took him more than two hours.

The mental consciousness of these Heavenly Order Beast Kings is far beyond those second-level beasts when they are analyzed.

Thanks to these 'whetstones', Jiang Yan actually felt that his bottleneck to the third-level realm had actually loosened a lot, which was an unexpected joy.

"It seems that maybe I've been too 'behind closed doors' in the past few months, cultivating in the stronghold of the Barbarian Bone Mountain Range all day long, and even if there is something, I only go out to deal with it through the network projection consciousness, and it is not surprising that there will be bottlenecks when cultivating like this. ”

As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Yan smiled bitterly at himself: "If you think about it carefully, how long has it been since I fought the enemy in person?"

He realized another mistake of his own.

——It is common sense for people to preserve themselves, but in the way of cultivation, we must be brave and diligent!

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan felt a sense of pride in his heart, and his fighting spirit was ignited: "Then it's decided, next time, I'll personally go and fight against those lucky hidden dragons!"

At this moment, Jiang Yan felt that the bottleneck of the realm leading to the third level had loosened a lot again, and the qi on his body suddenly changed, and in the sea of knowledge, the cocoon of the ninefold Dao Fu Zhen Seed clicked, and it seemed that a certain channel inside that had been in poor contact was finally perfectly connected at this moment, and the trace of incongruity that the entire rune cocoon vaguely emanated finally disappeared, and then suddenly radiated the Dao spiritual light to reflect the sea of knowledge brightly,

In the next moment, these spiritual lights quickly converged and retracted back into the cocoon.

'Is this ......?!'

Knock——!knock –

Bursts of heartbeat-like pulsations came out of the cocoon of Guanghua's restrained talismans, with an indescribable mystical charm, which made Jiang Yan's consciousness sink involuntarily.

Woohoo......

Outside, Jiang Yan's body trembled suddenly, and then suddenly erupted with a huge suction, devouring the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi in this stronghold at an extremely fast speed, and then swept the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi outside the stronghold as well.

Gradually, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi within a radius of a hundred miles were all affected, forming a tornado-like Yuan Qi storm that quickly converged towards this stronghold.

In the very center of the Vitality Storm, an indescribable coercion gradually rose, as if the vast and boundless power of heaven made all the living beings in the vicinity feel a palpitation and heaviness.

Hei Xuan, Zi Qu, Huang Ming, and other Heavenly Rank Beast Kings who were in the core strongholds of the Barbarian Bone Mountain Range were all sensed at this moment.

[Hmm!?]

[Convergence of vitality, but this scale ......]

They immediately flew out of the cultivation room, and quickly determined the place where the vision occurred according to the point of their senses.

Even if they didn't induce it, the Yuan Qi storm that spread over a radius of hundreds of miles clearly pointed out the direction for them.

[That location is...... Lord, a breakthrough?!]
