Rise of The Anti God

Chapter 492 - A Pleasant Turn Of Events



Arthur's heart tensed up as he saw the Blood Array being activated by Azrael. This was the moment he had been waiting for, which would decide the fate of his mother's life.

Lina couldn't help but step forward and lightly clutch the ends of Arthur's robes and say, "Everything would be alright, Your Highness."

Arthur felt warm to see Lina reassuring him and gently placed his hand on hers as he said with a smile, "Thank you, Lina."

Lina was surprised by his touch and abashedly nodded as she let go of his robes and took a step back with a slightly flushed face.

Arthur was too distracted to notice these things as he was keenly observing his mother's condition, using his senses to monitor her.

Damien didn't have to focus much since this was basically an ethereal formation and all he had to do was trigger the formation and monitor if the ethereal flow was proceeding smoothly through the Blood Array.

Still, he was closely observing the flow of ethereal energy inside Maria's body by touching her wrist.

His brows slightly frowned when he noticed her ethereal core reacting wildly to the flow of ethereal energy from the formation that was infused with Valentina's blood.

"Unn…" Maria slightly let out an uncomfortable grunt, making Arthur immediately feel his nerves get taut in worry, wondering if she was feeling too much pain.

Her expression was increasingly twisting into an uncomfortable one, and Arthur felt like doing something but at the same time felt that his hands were tied since Alchemist Azrael was busy treating her and didn't dare to interrupt him lest he worsens the situation unknowingly.

Lina unconsciously began to bite her nails, feeling worried for her master and his mother. Both were very special people to her and cared for them like her own family, especially since she never had one.

Maria, despite having a high imperial status, always talked to Lina as if she was her daughter. This was why Lina was very attached to Maria and wanted her to come out of this alive and healthy. She just couldn't imagine something bad happening to her.

Damien was in a dilemma seeing how Maria's ethereal core seemed to be breaking down even faster. At this rate, her ethereal core would collapse, and she would inevitably die.

He realized that her body was too weak to handle the incoming ethereal energy.

'No..I have to do something!' Damien decided to take action as he let his wisp of ethereal energy enter her body while making sure it was mild enough to not cause any backlash in her body, especially since his cultivation had recently increased by a lot.

He controlled and used his ethereal energy in her body to slow down the flow of ethereal energy from the Blood Array and directed it gently towards her ethereal core, which was already absorbing her body's vital nutrients. 

So since her ethereal core seemed so greedy to devour everything, he purposefully let it absorb the Blood Array's ethereal energy as well.

The moment this ethereal energy began to get absorbed by her ethereal core, it suddenly stopped breaking down, making Damien let out a sigh of relief, seeing that his plan worked.

Arthur also slightly relaxed, seeing that his mother's expression relaxed as well, and some color was returning to her previously pale skin.

Damien could see that Valentina's blood was beginning to show its magic, especially because of its regenerative properties.

Within just seconds, her ethereal core had begun to repair itself while the Blood Array was nourishing her body as well, restoring the nutrients and proteins she had lost before.

However, he could see that Maria's cultivation wouldn't return to her original level, and right now, she was at the Late Levels of the Spirit Ethereal Realm. This was a cultivation that would be considered very weak and ordinary for someone of her status and prestige.

But this was the price for restoring her health, and she could anyway increase her cultivation later if she wanted to, even if that would mean she would have to work hard again.

Arthur's expression began to spirit up as he noticed the changes in his mother's appearance. Her skin which was shriveled and dry before was now slowly becoming smoother and rosy; her hair which was previously thin, was slowly becoming thicker and silky; her body which looked thin and bony, began to regain fullness as she reverted to her original appearance.

Now she looked like a beautiful woman in her late thirties. If it wasn't for the years of suffering she had to endure both mentally and physically, she would have looked more radiant and younger since she wasn't even that old considering her cultivation.

Lina's eyes sparkled as she smiled jubilantly, seeing that Maria's condition was indeed improving fast and rapidly. She felt even more awed by the medical prowess of Alchemist Azrael and felt even more respect and reverence for him.

Arthur held the same sentiments as well and couldn't help but have his nerves shake in excitement at the thought of having his mother return to her healthy self and be with him for a long time.

Damien let his ethereal energy recede from her body slowly since his help wasn't needed anymore, and the Blood Array was doing the job perfectly.

He slowly opened his eyes and got up, much to Arthur's and Lina's surprise.

"Senior Azrael? Is there something wrong?" Arthur asked in a concerned tone since it seemed as if Alchemist Azrael was leaving while the Blood Array was still active on his mother's body, and she hadn't yet opened her eyes as well.

Damien waved his hand and said, "Things couldn't be better, and that is why my work here is done. But the Blood Array that I have set up should remain active for at least eight hours to make sure her body is restored back to health completely. After that, it will automatically deactivate, and Her Highness should wake up for sure. There is nothing for Your Highness to worry about."

Arthur couldn't help but give a respectful bow to this senior who was like a miracle doctor and said as he took out a golden token and gave it to Azrael, "Please accept this token.. Once you activate this token, then no matter what or where I will surely provide you my full assistance no matter the reason."
