Gao Wu: After transforming into a soft girl, I became a calamity?

"Your Holiness!"

As soon as they stepped outside, a group of believers, led by Wu Lie, surrounded them.

"What's going on outside? Why are there so many [Chaos] level experts?"

"Yes, yes, and there's a giant warship that looks like it's alive!"

"They've completely surrounded this place, even the gate; we can't get out. Could it be they're planning to..."

The crowd was chattering away, giving Xu Xiaoan a headache.

"quiet!"

Everyone fell silent.

Xu Xiaoan coldly surveyed the crowd, and everyone lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.

Seeing this, Wu Lie stepped forward and asked:

"Young master, is it... friend or foe?"

"That person doesn't seem hostile for the time being."

Xu Xiaoan shook his head and walked out along the path cleared by the others.

"I'll go talk to it again, you all stay here and wait!"

"yes!"

……

On the terrace, Chu leaned against the railing, propping his chin up with one hand, gazing listlessly at the distant mist and warships.

As Xu Xiaoan walked out of the hall, she seemed to sense something, turned her head, and smiled:

"All packed up?"

"Um."

Xu Xiaoan walked to her side, expressionless, as if he had only done a trivial thing.

However, the smile on Chu's face suddenly faded, and she asked:

"Those two were probably the first humans here to convert to [Chaos], right? They were quite useful tools, so why kill them?"

Xu Xiaoan glanced at her, as if she had expected her to ask this question.

"They are loyal to the 'Father,' yet they only treat me as a vessel for His coming, as a prisoner under house arrest. Such a transgression—shouldn't they kill me?"

Upon hearing this, Chu slightly narrowed her eyes and nodded in deep agreement.

"If that's the case, then he deserves to die. But now that you've already met Him, why are you delaying in merging with His authority and limiting your own growth?"

"They're here!"

Xu Xiaoan's heart stirred.

The fact that he possessed the nascent form of authority yet preferred to remain stuck at the peak of the seventh rank rather than merge with it was a significant point of suspicion in Chu Yan's eyes.

If someone lies, it is very easy to detect initially through the resonance of the [Formless] Origin.

Then the only option is to tell the truth.

However, by deliberately concealing some information, one can mislead her in other directions.

"Alas, sister, you don't understand."

Xu Xiaoan sighed and began to recount her tragic past.

"Since my birth, I have been hunted down by both humans and calamities. They all want to devour me, especially [Apocalypse], whose first apex power was 'me'."

"Oh? [Doomsday]?"

The mention of Jiang Mian immediately piqued Chu's interest.

The "apocalypse" of this world is ridiculously powerful; under the nourishment of those old gods, it has even embarked on the path to godhood.

If one simply absorbs the power of other apex powers, the result will only be strengthening oneself, far from achieving this level.

However, mastering the power of [Formless] will truly unlock the upper limit!

"What does this have to do with your failure to merge with authority?"

Xu Xiaoan's expression darkened, and she said softly:

"Through numerous deaths, 'I' as a formless consciousness has perished, and the true self has been born..."

"What?"

Chu Zhi stood up and, without saying a word, took Xu Xiaoan's hand.

The power of shadow probed into her body like tentacles, tentatively touching her soul.

A moment later, Chu opened her eyes again and reluctantly accepted the fact.

it is true!

【Formless】is a special individual controlled by the collective will, but Xu Xiaoan's soul state is no different from those native creatures!

By fusing with chaos in this state, the result changes from certainty to uncertainty.

The worst-case scenario is that Xu Xiaoan's will gradually crumbles, eventually turning him into an empty shell.

No wonder those native creatures who transformed into Chaos Clan dared to treat her like that, even using her as a vessel—now that's how it is!

"Interesting... In that case, there's no rush. Let's wait until you reach the eighth rank and your soul strength improves further."

Chu gave a light snort and decided not to pursue the matter further.

She couldn't bear to lose the little toy she had finally gotten her hands on.

"Come on, get on the boat, your big sister will treat you to a 'feast'!"

As she spoke, she took Xu Xiaoan's hand, and the power of shadow instantly covered her entire body, teleporting the two of them into the warship.

The surrounding "swarms" of bees rushed forward, locked onto the anxious believers waiting inside the tower, dragged them away, and took them onto the ship.

……

Outside the dark sky, Jiang Mian sat cross-legged atop Xuanhuang's head, closing his eyes to sense the situation on Xu Xiaoan's side.

That so-called "Beginning" should be the formless entity from another world.

It actually disembarked directly because of Xu Xiaoan?

Unexpectedly, Xu Xiaoan accomplished with ease what they couldn't.

However, the resonance with the [Formless] origin was indeed troublesome, making it almost impossible for Xu Xiaoan to hide her true emotions.

Fortunately, [Annihilation] is powerful enough.

Not only did it conceal the traces left by "Domination," it also hid the existence of save points within Xu Xiaoan's body, thus preventing her from discovering anything amiss.

If it were the Jiang Mian of the past, he would never have been able to fool a peak ninth-tier expert.

But her [Annihilation] and [Catastrophe] are both semi-laws!

These two already have a very solid foundation, and their status is a level higher than that of the nascent stage of power.

Even if that otherworldly, formless [Chaos] authority were to advance to a semi-law, Jiang Mian was confident he could deceive her.

There is no immediate risk of being exposed, so Xu Xiaoan should be safe.

Through shared perception, Jiang Mian saw Chu leading Xu Xiaoan straight into a containment chamber.

Besides a large number of Chaos Cores, there were also many strangely shaped materials.

Among them, Jiang Mian even saw a pile of black bones!

Are all the materials produced using the process of separation?

Jiang Mian couldn't help but ponder.

Can one [Formless] absorb a counterfeit created by another [Formless] and achieve the same effect?

The answer is yes.

This thing is essentially a formless physical body with added material properties, and its quality is unquestionable.

It's the same principle as when Xu Xiaoan absorbed the remaining physical body of the first [Formless] in the Northern Brahma Realm.

It is perfectly compatible, can even inherit some of the characteristics, and is completely immune to the effects of mental pollution. It is definitely a top-notch "supplement".

After entering the containment room, Chu seemed to have switched to another personality and began to frantically "feed" Xu Xiaoan.

Her body began to rapidly process these materials, but it could never match the speed of the initial feeding.

Soon, Xu Xiaoan's endurance reached its limit. With a thud, she clutched her stomach and peacefully fell asleep.

Jiang Mian observed her for a while longer, and only opened her eyes after confirming that she was safe.

However, she still maintains the most basic sense-sharing to avoid unexpected events.

"I have to go back and take care of some things. I'll leave Xiao An to you two to keep an eye on things for a while longer."

Jiang Mian patted Xuanhuang's head, then looked up at the torrent in the sky and gave him instructions.

"yes!"

Jiang Mian nodded slightly, then transformed into a streak of black light and sped away.

Xuanhuang watched her disappear into the mist, then tilted his head slightly.

The surrounding light suddenly distorted, and the next second, it transformed into a human form and appeared beside Hongliu.

"Old mudfish, still agonizing over that matter?"

"snort!"

Hong Liu snorted coldly and said:

"A dragon should act like a dragon. No matter what you say, I won't change."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Xuanhuang stroked his chin, his face full of disbelief.

"So what if I caught you in that state? It's not a big deal."

After becoming demigods, their essence transforms from calamity into pure "spirits of heaven and earth," and they have no need to reproduce, so naturally they have no gender distinction.

Moreover, their auxiliary power for transformation is [Formless], which gives them even more freedom.

And Old Mudskipper, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually...

"Shut up!"

Purple arcs of electricity leaped from Hongliu's two horns, coldly staring at Xuanhuang.

"If you tell Fathead Fish about this, I'll never forgive you!"

"Okay, okay."

He nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would absolutely not leak any information to Jiangling.

The torrent then lifted the lightning's blockade, shrank in size, and disappeared into the mist.

Xuanhuang stood still, a mysterious smile playing on his lips, and sent a compressed memory file to Jiang Mian through mental connection.
