Ugly and deformed!
Jin Bao'er frowned as she watched the scene.
The next second...
A strong and familiar aura suddenly descended from the swirling air above. She clearly saw two intense red threads of resentment, accompanied by a supremely evil power. One of them tightly bound Linlang Liuli, forcibly pulling out her soul…
The other entangled the puppet, causing it to falter and miss its target!
At this moment, Linlang Liuli's spiritual body had been largely extracted, writhing in pain and excitement! Completely unaware that she was facing an empty shell.
She stood within the domain, watching silently, her expressionless, cold face unmoving! The only thing that surprised her was that despite the tugging of the red threads, Linlang Liuli's karma remained within the body, and only the soul was being pulled out…
As she pondered the reason…
Suddenly!
A surge of intense malice came crashing in, locking onto her almost instantaneously!
Jin Bao'er's heart skipped a beat. She looked up sharply, meeting the enormous, blood-red eyeball filled with intense resentment and demonic energy in the vortex of air… Her pupils contracted!
She saw the red pupils in the center of the eyeball sliding rapidly, then settling on her, scrutinizing her intently!
It could see her?
At that moment, she suddenly realized she might have been exposed! Just as she was about to retreat, the eyeball moved again, scanning back and forth between the empty puppet and Jin Bao'er. Finally, it fixed its gaze on Jin Bao'er, as if it had found a soul to exchange with…
A red thread extended from behind the eyeball. Jin Bao'er finally saw the source of all that bizarre power: a small, dark, round bead with a tiny crack connecting to the giant eyeball.
Her expression sharpened! She immediately had an idea!
As the red thread flew towards her, she immediately mobilized her divine sense, covered it with the power of the Great Dao, and forcefully manipulated it!
Around the altar, several people sensed the fluctuation of the Great Dao's power at almost the same time and looked up. Everything seemed normal.
Apart from Jin Bao'er, who was enveloped in black mist and showed no movement, and Linlang Liuli, whose face was contorted in pain, there was no other anomaly!
The Linlang clan leader frowned and looked up! Then he sneered at the black mist!
"Not giving up yet? Heh!"
He thought Jin Bao'er refused to accept her fate and was still struggling. The others, hearing this, didn't think much of it and continued to activate the altar for the conversion!
At this time, Jin Bao'er stood in the domain space, her expression cold. She thrust out her right hand in the empty air! A long red thread appeared in her hand, still struggling.
She lowered her eyes, looking at the object in her hand, her eyes flashing. She had an idea!
A few minutes later…
A burst of power suddenly vanished. The people around them simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the altar. The Linlang clan leader withdrew the black mist, staring intently at the two figures lying on the ground… his expression becoming tense.
This soul-replacing process was too arduous! And it had taken longer than usual…
A moment later, the exquisitely beautiful white figure slowly opened her eyes. Perhaps due to the body's weakness and discomfort, she frowned, a touch of pain appearing on her cold, delicate face!
Seeing this, the people around them fell silent. For the first time, none of them could be sure if the soul replacement had succeeded, and whether the person before them was Jin Bao'er or Linlang Liuli.
It wasn't until the woman raised her hand to her forehead, feeling the smooth and delicate touch, that she was stunned. Immediately, she looked at her hands with joy, they were as white and lustrous as jade, slender and long. Her white robe was different from the previous dull brown tunic. She quickly touched her face, couldn't help but laugh out loud, trembling with excitement!
This series of actions made the few people present heave a huge sigh of relief!
The soul replacement… had succeeded!
Linlang Liuli was ecstatic! She hadn't been this happy in hundreds of years! What woman didn't love beauty?
But as she excitedly prepared to get up, her body felt incredibly heavy! Every movement was an effort! She could only sense a trace of spiritual energy within her, and none of the powerful fluctuations that Jin Bao'er had exhibited.
"Father! I…"
The Linlang clan leader frowned upon seeing this and said.
"Don't worry, it's likely because the soul and body are not yet compatible. It will improve over time."
This had happened before. After a soul swap, some people were unable to control the power held by the body! It took a long time to integrate and adapt. Linlang Liuli found it normal to have difficulty using Jin Bao'er's incredibly powerful body.
Hearing this, Linlang Liuli breathed a huge sigh of relief! She quickly became happy again… The thought of possessing that kind of world-ending power against heavenly emperors soon made her so excited she wanted to shout out loud!
A young body, exquisite beauty, formidable talent, absolute power… She had it all in an instant!
Looking at the withered, broken body lying motionless on the ground, with a faint breath, Linlang Liuli's eyes were filled with disgust and disdain… and then she kicked it!
"Jin Bao'er, weren't you very powerful? Get up! Hahaha! Idiot! Waste!"
However, seeing this, the Linlang clan leader's heart sank. He felt something was wrong! Was it that easy?
Let alone him, even the seven elders found it a bit strange…
Everything had gone too smoothly, so smoothly that they couldn't quite believe it!
Within the domain space…
Jin Bao'er watched their perplexed expressions and Linlang Liuli's unrestrained excitement with cold eyes! She snorted sarcastically in her heart.
A puppet body was destined to be unable to cultivate, unable to gather spiritual energy, unable to possess any cultivation! Didn't Linlang Liuli want to live forever? Didn't she want to be beautiful? Today, she would grant her wish!
During the four hours of rest during the day, she had made several puppet talismans. The sealing formation she had made in the room upstairs earlier was not meant to seal the underground…
It was for sealing the soul within the puppet body. As long as someone forced their soul into the puppet under the formation, the soul would be unable to escape the puppet for life! Forever trapped in that shell, becoming a cripple!
The karma on those eight people was extremely dense. Without looking, one knew they had borne countless lives. Destroying them directly would be too easy. Sometimes, living a life worse than death was the true punishment.
Soon, when Linlang Liuli walked out with Jin Bao'er's face, everyone immediately became tense. Some worried, some curious, some expectant, some disgusted…
Linlang Liuli slightly curved her lips. Her exquisite face displayed an extremely charming smile! Stunning, yet incredibly strange!
The faces of several noble families instantly turned cold…
Because they knew that Jin Bao'er would not smile like that! She was such a proud and aloof woman. When happy, she would only offer a slight smile, and the coldness in her eyes would never diminish! She would never be as alluring and enchanting as she was now… because she disdained it!
