30 Planet ExE

Planet ExE. One of the first planets to have gain conscience and that was growing into a deity.

ExE was a micro planet made from flesh and blood that was able to gain its strength from spilled blood within a hundred-million miles. After years of exploring, it came in contact with a solar system that had fresh blood in one of its planets. It was a light blue planet far bigger than itself.

The planet was a good source of food for ExE, because millions of creatures were slaughtered each day. The more ownerless blood there were, the stronger ExE became.

One day, a group of people slaughtered a huge of number to sacrifice it to him. It was surprised, because they never thought there would be creatures who would offer it food on the day it came close to the planet to feed again.

ExE took the opportunity to take the group to his surface with the help of his nascent power that was able to control space to a certain degree. He helped the group with tools that had his powers in order to gain more power indirectly. With the addition of the group, he would be able to gain extra food whenever he came back from digesting previous food.

The amount of food was random every time he came close to the planet after all. With the group sacrificing and spilling blood for him whenever he wanted, he was guaranteed a certain amount. A hidden scheme of him that no one on the planet knew, because they all thought that he was nothing but a second moon that would appear randomly.

ExE was able to talk through cultists through emotions. They didn't hear what he said, but they could feel what he meant to say whenever they came close to the blood rivers.

After many centuries had passed, ExE was already able to understand their language and he was strong enough to be able to create blood creatures which were parasites in the form of red spirit stones that lusted over Qi. They were creatures that would appeal to the ideas of his loyal group of people and a calamity that would cause a mass slaughter at the same time.

A few months after he had sent his loyal followers to plant his creatures, he was welcomed with an unexpected situation. Someone was able to figure out his plans, and was able to eliminate it before it even bloomed. When he felt all of his creations and followers on the planet die rapidly, he was beyond rage. He immediately gave command to all of his followers to drown themselves in the river, before choosing the most compatible one as his avatar.

The followers who knew they wouldn't die from dying, followed his command faithfully, and drowned themselves to death. What they didn't know, was that they would forever lose their live and be taken over by ExE as his children.

After their rebirth, all of them were teleported in the empty sky of the planet, as they silently floated while awaiting the next command of their master. Their body were larger and maroon, and their eyes had a bloody red glow with cracks that spread the light further over their face.

ExE was the biggest of them all who had a visible flaming red aura burning on his body. He was able to sense where the strong cultivators were gathered, before commanding his children to follow him.

...

Up in the sky they stood waiting for the cultivators to notice them. ExE wanted to give them a horrifying memory to remember before he slowly slaughtered them all to bathe in their blood. When all the strong cultivators were out of their shelter, he spoke an entire speech about himself and the world's end. When he was finished with his speech, he showed a large grin with his pointy teeth. His grinning face was projected on the red moon, and none of them below him could resist the temptation to look at the moon.

"I didn't want to use all of my powers, but you've forced me to…" He giggled, before he and his followers turned into short beams of light that disappeared upwards.

While the people on the sect were looking at the moon, they couldn't help grinning along with the projection. As they grinned, their eyes began to change to a similar glowing red-eyes from the followers of ExE. Xin Feng was the only one who wasn't affected at all. He was confused at first why ExE even did that, but when he saw how every person near him was charmed, he knew that the worst was still going to happen.

"Argh!" Hua Mei who was right beside Xin Feng, stopped grinning and began struggling on her knees in annoyance instead.

"Get! Out! Of…! My head!"

Fighting the mental attack of ExE took a toll on her. She was gasping for breath, as she leaned at Xin Feng for support. Her howl had woken up the others, but not from their charm. It woke them up from their admiration of ExE, which meant that they were about to follow their next instinct. To wreck a havoc and spill blood.

In front of the two, stood the sect masters and a few leaders of the sword sect, ready to pounce.

"Get behind me!" The second Great elder was suddenly heard. He called out to the three that were able to resist the charm.
