Chapter 476 – Fault

When it came to the efficiency of the pills on other people, some would only absorb twenty percent of the potency of the pills while some better ones may take in more. Overall, it was dependent on the type of talent the said person’s gene had in that regard.

However, for Virus, one of the characteristics of the top-notch DNA core he had implanted within his biological body made it so that his stomach would behave like an insatiable sponge that could suck up a full one hundred percent potency of any pills.

Although that sounded like a dream come true feature for a cultivator to have as it was bound to make the path of cultivation much easier for the said person, that, in fact, was not the case at all since there was a major flaw to that kind of physique, a kind of defect that would immediately turn the dream into a nightmare.

The flaw had to do with the fact that each pill had a certain percentage of impurities within itself that were harmful to the body. Since that type of body was bound to absorb everything about a pill, it was also destined to merge with the bad parts of the pill just as well as the good parts. Hence, all things considered, at the end of the day, it was better for a cultivator to not have that kind of body, to begin with.

On the plus side, however, that wasn’t really an issue for Virus anymore since he had completely immunized his body to all impurities when he finished the Purifying pre-stage of cultivation.

Thus, Virus had already negated that weakness and had no worries regarding it. As a matter of fact, that was one of the reasons why he was so adamant about completing the purifying stage as it was destined to be of great assistance to him during his entire journey of cultivation.

Now, only the positive potency of the pills could influence his body while the negative influences were bound to be unable to affect, accumulate, or gather within his body.

As the bleeding gradually scabbed, Virus raised his head and told Hellarose unceremoniously, “Guess I’m in your debt again. And here I was just saying we’re even now.”

Smiling in a friendly manner, Virus felt nothing but grateful to this woman that had been warm-hearted enough to extend her hand and aid him. ‘I won’t forget about this, I promise to return this to you a ten-fold at least.’

With a simpering smirk, Hellarose reminded him, “Geez, didn’t I just tell you you’re a powerless damsel in distress that can’t last without me? I had just voiced it and you’re proving it true already!” Holding her head high, Hellarose claimed full of pride in herself.

“Sigh…” Letting out a pronounced sigh, with a simple shake of his head, the only response Virus had to that was, “You’re probably the only person to ever think that. But… you’re right, I’m still too weak, I need more strength.”

Virus consoled himself by envisioning how Hellarose would react if she was aware of his background and back story about the terrifying [Virus] that nearly led to the fall of a humongous civilization.

However, he was also aware that he was not that Virus anymore. That Virus was a nigh-unkillable being. 

On the other hand, a stronger cultivator was all that was required to finish him off right now. Or at least that is the case until he’s strong enough to be even nigher unkillable than before, perhaps even remove the ‘nigh’ part and only leave the ‘unkillable’ part this time.

Ultimately, that was also why cultivation was so much fun and worth it since it was the path that led to true power that uniquely belonged to its wielder alone.

“Right.” Confirming mercilessly, Hellarose rushed him up, “Anyway if you’re feeling better now, you better escape before the arrival of the monstrous beasts, you’ll be in big trouble if they get to you!”

“Hmm, alright.” Rising to his feet, Virus was just about to say goodbye again before leaving when a yelp from Hellarose stopped him in his track.

“Ahh, I almost forgot earlier since I was so worried about the monstrous beasts… do you know the way out of Chao Mundi, by the way? It would be too dangerous if you just wander around aimlessly here.”

“Don’t worry, I still recall the route we came from.” Although Virus was vocalizing that out loud, internally, he had another idea, ‘No worries, my spaceship will get me out of here pretty safely.’

Then, after exchanging a few words of farewell, Virus finally charged toward the path they had originally come from.

Soon, when there was no one around, out of nowhere, a door briefly opened up in front of Virus as he vanished inside!

In the meantime, Virus was just gone when the old lady abruptly materialized in his previous position.

“Huh? What was that? Where did he go to?” Albeit, no matter how hard the priestess contemplated the question, there wasn’t a single clue that was going to enlighten her.

After returning to Hellarose’s side again, the priestess exclaimed in some amazement, “Young miss, that guy is not a simple man. He just vanished into thin air. Just now, some gate cracked open in the fabric of space as he walked into it, and then poof—he was gone!”

Listening to that description, however, Hellarose didn’t seem to be shocked or even that surprised since she had already deemed Virus to be a mystery, an enigma, with a lot of secrets.

“Is that so? I’m just glad that he’s safe.” With sparkling eyes, Hellarose began humming a happy tune. She was genuinely feeling relieved now.

On the other side, after Virus was gone, another person adorned in a golden robe started cursing out loud, “Where did he go? Fuck!!!”

That was Elijah.

Quake~

Precisely a quarter of an hour later, around the region Virus had vanished at, an earthquake was felt as it was soon followed by the appearance of tens of thousands of one- and two-meters ants that swarmed everywhere!

Furthermore, it was followed by a titanic ant that cast a terrifying shadow over the trees of Chao Mundi itself!
