Chapter 1215 Golden core
Chapter 1215 Golden core
Lex had already considered the possibility. He had specifically trained in how to control his physique, though there wasn’t exactly an instruction manual for how to control a near mythic physique that no one had ever heard of in history.
But he had a very good understanding of his body, which is why he was fairly certain that he could prevent it from being randomly triggered. What he had not anticipated was that using over a certain amount of his own blood to heal someone would not trigger a random outburst from his physique, but a targeted one.
But it was too late to stop now, so Lex kept using his blood to heal Moon. What he did do, though, was to summon the Butter Knife and use the divine energy to obscure any traces that the activation of his physique might leave behind.
At the same time, Z, who felt that something usual was happening, acted promptly and created a spatial barrier around themselves so that none of Lex’s aura or energy would leak out onto the planet and its people.
For the moment, the situation was under control.
Lex used the entirety of his various senses to monitor any changes that Moon might be undergoing, but for all intents and purposes, she was completely normal. In fact, she seemed to be recovering her health and energy faster than normal. But after only a few minutes, it was Lex who suddenly felt a certain level of fatigue and stopped.
Even if he wanted to strengthen Moon and speed up her return process, he couldn’t afford to be weak. After all, if nothing else, then he would soon be undergoing his tribulations.
Yet he didn’t return to the Inn immediately. He waited to see how Moon responded, yet as soon as he stopped Moon fell into a kind of trance and laid back down in her hammock. She seemed like she had fallen asleep, but he could sense the vast amounts of energy coursing through her body, restructuring things.
Once he was sure that everything was fine, he teleported back to the Inn and allowed the rainwater to fall on him.
Unlike star rank raises, which allowed everyone to experience a breakthrough in their realms, the rainwater wasn’t directly affecting anyone’s realm. It was just filling any potential gaps in their existing cultivation that existed, strengthening the existing cultivation that already existed.
For countless people, this was already enough to help them raise their cultivation ceiling by multiple realms. It was slightly embarrassing that the people at the Inn were receiving free upgrades while those in the Midnight Games were fighting for their lives for it.
Moreover, this rainwater couldn’t be saved either, as it would either absorb into whatever it touched, or go directly through it.
Lex felt the water absorb into his body, and his fatigue slowly faded away. Interestingly enough, the water was not actually water, but was a physical manifestation of certain laws. This was not the process by which the laws were being absorbed by the Midnight realm, but rather were the excess laws which the realm could not directly absorb.
Instead of the laws becoming a part of the realm, and creating the fundamental basis of this realm, they were being used to nurture the existing laws. Similarly, the reason why Lex and everyone else were benefiting was because the laws which constituted their body were being nourished.
He studied the process and took notes. This was a good way to heal others without having to rely on his blood. He was not some kind of masochist. Why should he continuously bleed to heal others?
No sooner had he had this thought that he returned to his peak and then went back to Moon to continue healing her. Being an older brother was troublesome.
For three days Lex continued to heal Moon using his blood before stopping. It was not that Moon was completely healed, but that the rain in the Inn stopped so he could no longer risk weakening himself.
The problem with Moon was that the planet itself was an extension of her body, in a way, which is why even if he bled himself dry, it would not be enough to heal her completely. But the situation was actually much better than expected.
While the forced healing had not brought her to a position where she could teleport with the planet, the interference by Lex’s physique had resulted in an unexpected gain. In the process of assimilating the planet, she had gained an overwhelming advantage.
Her own physique had evolved to somehow accommodate the planet into herself. In fact, she felt that it would only be a matter of days before the process self initiated. If she succeeded… if she succeeded, then she suspected that the planet of Yildirim Utopia itself would become her Golden core.
That statement was an absolutely ridiculous boast, and yet somehow, Lex found it to be completely believable. By now, he was getting used to his newfound perspective which is that impossible usually only meant highly unlikely.
The only thing that, in his experience, maintained its indomitable status was time itself. Everything else in existence seemed like the way it usually operated was just a very strong suggestion rather than an irrefutable truth. Maybe the origin of the statement ‘laws were made to be broken’ was deeper and more profound than he had ever realized.
Since it would be only a few more days, and Lex was free for that duration, Z was finally able to leave to do his other tasks – much to Moon’s chagrin. She promised him to celebrate his 18th birthday in a few weeks inside the Inn when she finally got there.
In the meantime, the residents of the Utopia started to be sent to the Inn as well. If she was about to absorb the planet, chances were high that everyone on it would die.
This seemingly simple task turned out to be a lot harder than anyone expected, for there were quite a number of people who would rather accept death than be forced off their planet.
