Upon hearing True Monarch Fuguang's inquiry, Ji Haoyuan pondered for just a moment and then said:

"How many cultivators of our Demonstration Sect are currently in the hands of the True Words Sect?"

"Hmm, Junior Brother Nanhua, what do you mean by this?"

As soon as True Monarch Fuguang heard Ji Haoyuan's words, he immediately understood his intention.

"Indeed, let us first exchange prisoners with them.

Once all our Demonstration Sect cultivators have been exchanged back, the remaining ones will be sent to mine various resources for us."

Returning the remaining True Words Sect cultivators to them is absolutely impossible.

Even if they want to trade resources, it won't be allowed.

After all, being dispatched to this battlefield and surviving until now, there is hardly anyone among them who would be weak.

If we were to exchange prisoners with each other, that would be reasonable.

But to return these True Words Sect captives back, who can ensure that none among them will become a Golden Core True Man in the future?

Wouldn't that be indirectly increasing the enemy's strength?

However, killing them all would inevitably be somewhat wasteful.

We only need to plant a restriction on each of them, and then arrange for them to work in various mining sites.

In doing so, we can utilize them to their fullest potential.

"Alright, let's do as Junior Brother Nanhua suggests."

True Monarch Fuguang nodded.

After a moment.

Batches of True Words Sect prisoners were taken away.

Ji Haoyuan looked at True Monarch Fuguang and Master Lei Xia, thought for a moment, and said:

"Senior Brother Fuguang, and Senior Sister.

Next, I plan to visit some other battlefields."

"Visiting other battlefields?"

Suddenly hearing Ji Haoyuan's words, both True Monarch Fuguang and Master Lei Xia were stunned.

"Indeed."

Ji Haoyuan nodded.

"Currently, that old ghost Bihai has just perished not long ago.

If I appear in other battlefields now, it will surely catch them off guard.

If we can take advantage of this to eliminate another of their Nascent Souls, then our Demonstration Sect will truly be in an invincible position in this war."

"What you say is true, but would this not be a bit too risky?"

True Monarch Fuguang spoke with caution.

Indeed.

As the saying goes, speed is of the essence in warfare.

If Ji Haoyuan is sent to other battlefields at this time.

There might really be a great chance of achieving some unforeseen results.

Even if he can't, as before, kill one of their Nascent Soul True Monarchs,

Merely dealing a severe blow to them is still very likely.

But at the same time,

The confrontation between Nascent Soul cultivators is not like a turn-based game.

You strike once, I strike once.

Any unforeseen possibility can happen in between.

Moreover, anyone who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul Realm will undoubtedly have a few trump cards.

If they are truly cornered and the opponent uses their trump card,

Then no one can guarantee that they won't experience any mishaps.

Ji Haoyuan was obviously aware of True Monarch Fuguang's concerns.

So he nodded.

"Don't worry, I will be vigilant and cautious in my actions.

If I am not absolutely confident, I will not act rashly."

Having heard Ji Haoyuan say this, True Monarch Fuguang no longer tried to persuade him.

Firstly, having reached this level, they have their own principles in whatever they do, rarely influenced by outsiders.

Secondly, and most importantly, True Monarch Fuguang also believed that Ji Haoyuan's plan indeed had some room for maneuver.

At the very least, it might make the True Words Sect cautious.

They might even voluntarily make concessions, or even surrender.

After all, with one more Nascent Soul on their side and one less on the opposing side,

With both sides having Nascent Soul True Monarchs present, the True Words Sect no longer has any advantage.

"Junior Brother, be careful."

Finally, Master Lei Xia reminded.

Ji Haoyuan smiled and nodded at her, then greeted True Monarch Fuguang, and turned to leave Battle Zone Number Six A.

At the same time.

Endless Sea.

The former location of Fuya Secret Realm.

On that peak which had already regained its tranquility, suddenly waves of blood-colored mist surged out.

These blood-colored mists were identical to those emitted during the incident at the Fuya Secret Realm.

However, unlike the last time, within these blood-colored mists, shadows of blood-colored tentacles bristling with barbs swayed and fluttered.

Crack—Crack Crack Crack—

As time passed, cracking sounds, like glass shattering, suddenly echoed through the skies of this Endless Sea.

Immediately, a terrifying scene unfolded.

Wherever the shadows of the blood-colored tentacles swept by, the space showed clear cracks.

And from those spatial cracks, objects resembling blood-colored flesh lumps leaped out.

They twisted and struggled frantically in the air, emitting weird "gurgling" noises.

Finally.

Each blood-colored flesh lump opened numerous eyes, densely packed, like insect compound eyes.

Greedy, ferocious, bloodthirsty, filled with a kind of unusual madness.

Swish swish swish!

Suddenly.

These blood-colored flesh lumps, studded with innumerable eyes, shot off toward the surroundings of the Endless Sea.

About seven to eight hundred miles away from here, over a stretch of the sea.

Dozens of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators were locked in a standoff.

These people all hailed from a nearby island named Bamboo Moon Island.

The reason for their current standoff was because they had just left a small relic site.

Resentments from the relic site, or perhaps someone leaked the news of their enormous spoils, led to this tense standoff.

Just when a great battle seemed ready to erupt, several dots of red unexpectedly flew over from the distant sky.

The speed of those red dots was incredibly fast.

In just a moment, they closed in to within dozens of miles of these people.

"What are those things?"

Someone exclaimed in shock unconsciously.

But the next moment, someone shouted loudly.

"Not good!

Dodge quickly!"

Pfft!

Unexpectedly, just as the person's words fell, several red dots pierced through the brows of a few individuals among them.

And this was not even the most terrifying part.

The truly horrifying part was that, upon entering those people's brows, red veins resembling human meridians emerged on the surface of their skin.

These red veins wriggled, twisted, and expanded continuously on the surface of their skin.

In the end, they completely occupied that person's body.

Their eyes transformed into compound eyes.

Swish!

In just an instant, a parasitized Qi Refining cultivator approached a Foundation Establishment early-stage cultivator from behind.

Whoosh—

The parasitized Qi Refining cultivator reached out with one hand.

Layers of blood-colored ripples immediately spread out around.

The early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator had no time to react.

He immediately felt a pain in his chest.

Looking up.

A bloody heart had already been ripped out by that parasitized Qi Refining cultivator!

"Ugh..."

This early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator didn't even know what happened, as his life swiftly faded.

Boom!

Simultaneously.

Intense magical power fluctuations erupted in the sky.

Some who reacted began to attack.

Some of the blood-colored flesh lumps were reduced to ashes by the crowd's attacks.

But in comparison, more people were parasitized, turning to attack their comrades.

After a while.

Everything quieted down.

On the sea, there were now twenty cultivators whose bodies were covered with numerous red veins, their eyes transformed into compound eyes.

All of them wore a trace of ruthless and sinister smiles.

They then exchanged glances with each other.

Suddenly, these cultivators darted in different directions around them, vanishing into the sky above the sea in the blink of an eye.
