It had not been useful.
But the cause existed.

So if Noah opened his mouth and asked for help, the rogue cultivator would naturally pull him once within the range of his ability.
Compared with those people…
Harper Sloane’s life and death were not important to Julian.
That was why, compared with spending a large amount of his own blood essence, merging in part of his soul, and wasting enormous time refining Harper into an intelligent personal Ghost King…
he would rather save her alive.
“A Ghost King does not awaken intelligence easily. Of course, if you think an unintelligent Admiral Sloane s fine, then we do not have to speed up. I can pull out her soul right now.”
Orion went silent.
His aurora-like eyes fixed deeply on Julian.
Without realizing it, his breathing lightened.
He almost could not breathe.
He had always thought Julian’s ghost refining sounded easy.
He had thought the Orion ghost held a special first-place spot because the Orion ghost was Julian’s family
property.
Only now did he understand.
Julian had been so stubborn about saving the Ghost King slot for him because awakening intelligence was
hard.
Keeping a ghost was easy.
But if the Orion ghost had no intelligence…
would that still be him?
Julian, you cannot refine multiple Ghost Kings in a short time, can you? Or rather, you cannot preserve several Ghost Kings’ intelligence at the same time.”
Julian pressed his lips together.
But Julian never lied.
“One to three years. With the spiritual energy concentration in this world, if I refine Admiral Sloane into a

Ghost King, then refining the next Ghost King will require at least one to three years of recovery.”
Orion did not wait any longer.
He lifted the vial, poured the potion into his mouth, and swallowed without hesitation.
Atlas sighed beside him and drank his own immediately too.
The grandfather and grandson were both smart.
Naturally, they had heard what Julian had not said outright.
Julian only wanted to keep the soul-refining method for Orion.

Perhaps that thought had existed from the very beginning because Orion kept taking risks and nearly dying.
Ghost refining was no joke.
A ghost that awakened intelligence consumed Julian himself.
That kind of consumption required time to recover from.
If something happened to Orion during that period, matters might head in an uncertain direction.
Julian was used to planning.
Or rather, he had his own rhythm.
And he valued Orion greatly.
So he resisted that uncertainty.
That was why he kept repeating “Orion ghost.”
It was subconscious behavior.
Perhaps Julian himself had not noticed.
But what it represented was obvious.
The potion flowed into Orion and Atlas like a marrow-deep ice spring.
The moment it entered, it stabilized their psychic seas, which had been boiling and shaking after the forced dispersal of their spirit forms.
Limitless cold spread through the psychic sea and rushed toward the psychic sea core at the fastest speed.
The comfort made them want to sigh.
It was relief.
More than that, it was deep healing.

Compared with Orion, who was considered young among imperial generals, Atlas had countless injuries inside his psychic sea.
His response to that healing was even more obvious.
Atlas was sleepy.
That was his psychic sea trying to repair itself after rain, forcing its owner into dormancy.
Seeing Atlas try to hold on, Julian said at once, “It is only half a day. You can afford to sleep.”
That sentence was like pressing a shutdown button.
The old man immediately collapsed onto the sofa.
Julian did not even need to speak.
Alkaid had already turned into a stream of light and rushed into Orion’s psychic sea with practiced case, circling the wolf cub that was gradually condensing.
With Alkaid’s healing psychic power helping, Ruin’s recovery speed became visible to the naked eye.
Half an hour later…
Ruin, which had not been injured to begin with and had only suffered energy disorder from being forcibly recalled, appeared again beside Julian’s feet.
Plump.
Round.
Fluffy.
It rubbed its furry head against Julian’s calf.
It was a wolf.
But truly, it looked very much like a puppy.
Then again, in front of the person one loved…
who was not a cute puppy?
Julian patted his own spirit form’s doglike head and said seriously, “With this much energy, you must be very strong. I knew it. You are perfect for pulling a cart.”
Ruin: “?”
Wolf
It was a wolf!
Wolves did not pull carts.
Chapter 364 The Price of Saving Her
Dogs pulled carts.
Ten minutes later, Julian and Orion returned to Ninefold.
Using the core command room on Elysian Peak as the array eye and a massive quantity of high-level insectoid cores as fuel, Julian laid a towing grand array across the entire fleet.
Orion was ordered to sit at the center of the array.
The next second, starlight condensed into nine chains and bound him without reason or mercy.
Orion: “…”
It was over.
This time, he truly had become the dog.
On the far side of deep space, the boundless insectoid tide was wriggling madly.
Finished
Three giant shadows led the way, covering the stars and commanding the swarm to march at full speed. They wanted to seal the entire bottleneck as quickly as possible.
They would block the human legions here.
Then, together with the giant scorpion swarm behind them, they would annihilate humanity’s living military force and avenge the Calamity Ant Queen.
For that purpose, the three insectoids advanced at full speed, leaving the swarm three hours behind as they tried to reach the edge of the dead zone early.
