Chapter 233 The Mainframe, at this moment, had not yet discovered...
The Otherworld Where the Invading Beings Occur—
Some of the life forms on the spaceship still retained parts of human appearance, but... there were dog heads pieced together, cat heads, and other combinations where the upper body was human and the lower body was horse-like. There were even insects sitting like humans, and so on.
These forms resembled the monsters she had seen in the celestial realm.
The spaceship landed at a designated landing area, and the people inside disembarked.
I didn't see them doing anything like securing tickets, and they were able to get on and off the spaceship.
Xia Mo noticed that there was something like a scan at the spaceship exit. She decisively sent her divine sense into the cat-headed man's body, drilling under his skin.
The moment Xia Mo crawled into the cat-headed man's body, she was disgusted by the cat-headed man's physical condition.
The cat-headed man is not only different in appearance, but also in internal structure. It is half human and half cat, as if it was forcibly spliced together. There are twisted marks at the joints, like centipedes attached to it.
She was 100% certain that the life form to which her consciousness was currently attached had been modified.
Could it be that the life forms in this world have gone mad?!
After disembarking from the spaceship, the cat-like creature's keen intuition made it constantly look around, always feeling like it was being watched.
The cat-headed man and the dog-eared man reunited and walked out of the spaceship.
"The mainframe has issued a new mission: if we complete it, we can undergo the sixth transformation, and my head will become a cat's head, just like yours," the dog-eared man said.
The cat-headed man glanced at the dog-eared man with his cat eyes, opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately said nothing.
The mastermind...
Xia Mo caught the key words, the "mastermind" that the dog-eared man mentioned, could it be the master of the live streaming system?
"Don't rush to do the script missions yet. I finally got to switch to the cat head, so come and experience it with me," the cat head said.
"I'd rather have my brain replaced with a system than a dog's head, so I can live forever," the dog-eared man muttered to himself.
Summer's End: "..."
This world is crazy enough.
Xia Mo was curious about the script mission mentioned by the dog-eared man, so she left the cat-headed man and entered the dog-eared man's body.
The dog-eared man has slightly fewer hairs and fewer stitches inside his body, making him look relatively better compared to the cat-headed man.
As summer drew to a close, she saw the cat-headed man and the dog-eared man playing. Her instincts told her that she couldn't stay connected with the divine consciousness of the other world forever; it was almost the limit of her original body.
Xia Mo simply left his divine consciousness, which had entered the other world, inside the dog-eared man's body, attaching itself to the dog-eared man's soul, and entered a dormant state.
At this moment, the mainframe was unaware that a crack had appeared in the world it completely controlled, and that it had been invaded by a force that did not belong to its world.

In this world——
In the late summer room, Xia Mo, lying on the bed, had already covered her forehead in cold sweat, and her body was trembling as if she were wearing only a thin layer of clothing in the cold weather.
She didn't faint because her formation was providing energy to her tired, even somewhat weak, body, nourishing it.
"call……"
Outside the door, Xia's mother was filled with worry.
“Your little sister said she was going into seclusion for three days to rest… but there’s been no word from her,” Xia’s mother said, looking at her eldest brother with unconcealed worry.
“My little sister is an extraordinary person, so I don’t think she’ll be in any trouble,” Brother Xia said, his face showing undisguised worry.
Xia Mo overheard her mother and older brother's conversation, but going out now, looking so weak and pale as if she might collapse at any moment, would only make her family more worried.
She needed to make some adjustments within the formation.
Another half day has passed—
Xia Mo used up all the earth energy in the jade stones used to set up the formation!
The earth vein energy in her spirit-storing pearl, which contained earth vein energy, was also completely consumed by her.
At this moment, her appearance was no longer deathly pale, but...
Her body was still trembling, a result of the hunger that came from exhausting her physical strength!
"Food, Mother, I'm hungry," Xia Mo struggled to stand up, holding onto the bed, and called out to her mother outside the door.
Hearing Xia Mo's weak voice from hunger, Xia's mother's breath caught in her throat. She quickly replied "Okay" and rushed to the kitchen, bringing back a pile of food on a wooden tray.
Xia's mother and older brother opened the door and entered Xia Mo's room. Xia Mo was already sitting at the table waiting to be fed.
"eat fast!"
Xia's mother placed the food in front of Xia Mo and urged him to hurry.
In late summer, she would grab food with her hands and put it in her mouth.
After finishing all the food prepared by Xia's mother, the feeling of hunger was still there, but she was no longer sweating profusely from exhaustion.
Brother Xia took out a fine cotton handkerchief and carefully wiped the oil stains off Xia Mo's fingers.
Even though Xia Mo ate ravenously, she didn't get her mouth all greasy, but her lips, moistened by the oil, looked particularly full and beautiful.
"Even if you're cultivating, you're still a human being. How can a human not eat? If you don't eat for three days, see how you'll starve yourself," Xia's mother couldn't suppress her worry and turned it into nagging.
As the hunger pangs subsided in late summer, she smiled at her mother and listened obediently to her mother's instruction.
Xia's mother stopped talking because her throat was dry, and Xia's eldest brother immediately brought her water to drink.
Brother Xia also felt that Xia Mo's behavior of seclusion for three days without eating or drinking was truly despicable!
"Hehe, I wanted to experience what Master said about not eating grains, but... I don't think I can do it," Xia Mo laughed shyly.
Fortunately, body cultivators don't care about the impurities they absorb into their bodies and have a strong ability to eliminate impurities on their own. Otherwise, with her way of eating, her meridians would probably be filled with impurities.
"You," Xia's mother said helplessly, reaching out to tap Xia Mo's forehead.
My mood was great as summer drew to a close.
What she sensed from Xia's mother's nagging was her mother's concern and pure affection. Because of this purity, her mood improved.
Even if Xia's mother said the same thing a hundred times, she would never get tired of it.
"Alright, I won't scold you anymore. After you've finished eating, go for a walk in the yard. Your father and second brother are busy in the fields. This is the first time they've fertilized the rice this year," said Xia's mother.
Despite all the talk and nagging, Xia's mother knew very well that her youngest daughter had her own ideas, and no matter how much she said or nagged, it was useless.
"I'll go take a look," Xia Mo jumped up, by which time she no longer felt hungry.
Right now, the divine power usable in this world has returned to its previous state.
But it's alright. Once she gathers the energy from the two ley lines and strengthens her body, she'll be able to unleash even more cultivation power.
* * *
Xia's father and second brother were fertilizing their eight mu of land.
The villagers of Anjia Village were curious and gathered around the edge of the field to watch.
The villagers of Anjia Village also warmly asked Xia's father if he needed their help.
Xia's father smiled and refused.
“It’s our first time, and we don’t have any experience either, so just watch and see,” Xia’s father said.
In late summer, he jumped into the field wearing only his shoes.
Seeing this, Xia's mother hurriedly called out, "Nannan, let your father and two brothers go down to the fields. What are you doing down there?! You'll get your feet dirty. Come back up quickly."
Xia Mo smiled and, taking advantage of everyone's inattention, used her divine sense to take out several pieces of jade from her soul space and bury them in the field, setting up a small array.
