Chapter 1758: Golden-Soul Rune Virus
As portable space-teleportation equipment could only be accessible at a fixed time in Motian Realm, Zhang Tie did like the Romans——put some life-saving items such as senior medicament into his portable luggage. Zhang Tie had long prepared the two vials of senior antidote in case of emergency. Unexpectedly, he applied them to Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin.
Not being a master in medical science, Zhang Tie only knew a bit of pharmacology. However, now that the two women were affected by Golden-Soul Rune Virus, it was reasonable for Zhang Tie to have a try with a senior antidote. Even if the senior antidote didn't work, at least it would not harm them or make them worse.
With a bit of fluke mind, Zhang Tie wanted to try the effect of senior antidote. However, the result proved that Zhang Tie underestimated the power of Golden-Soul Rune Virus.
After feeding them his medicament for 5 minutes, Zhang Tie checked the two girls as he found they didn't make any response at all. Zhang Tie then waited there for another 5 minutes. Whereas, the two girls still didn't make any response; nor did they recover their consciousness. Therefore, Zhang Tie realized that senior antidote was ineffective to Golden-Soul Rune Virus.
'It seems that the word "rune" might be the key of Golden-Soul Rune Virus'.
Zhang Tie thought.
Zhang Tie had never seen any rune virus before. As an immortal craftsman, although Zhang Tie was proficient in the study of runes, it was his first time to contact runes with poison. Additionally, the term golden soul might be involved in a mysterious, spiritual realm. That made it trickier.
When Zhang Tie thought about the immortal runes in his mind sea, he immediately realized that the problem of Golden-Soul Rune Poison might be in the victims' brains and mind sea.
After putting his hand on Ji Yuelan's forehead, Zhang Tie started to input his powerful spiritual energy into her brain and mind sea which felt as tender as trickles and flowing mercury.
It was not an easy job for one person to input his spiritual energy into the other one's head. If not grasp some secret skills of Bloody Soul Sutra and clearly know the details, nobody dared do it at such a high risk; because Ji Yuelan's brain and mind sea might be severely inflicted due to any mistake.
Zhang Tie was right.
When his powerful spiritual energy resonated with the heartbeats of Ji Yuelan harmoniously, his spiritual energy started to immerse into Ji Yuelan's brain and mind sea in the tenderest way before exploring it.
Compared to the secret skill that Zhang Tie applied to that demon heavenly knight which Star Emperor had controlled using his spiritual trick a few days ago, this method was more like the most delicate surgical operation which would not do any harm to Ji Yuelan.
As Zhang Tie's spiritual energy immersed in, he gradually felt that Ji Yuelan's spiritual energy was drawn by something like water in a pool being drawn by a pump. Zhang Tie's spiritual energy also "flew" into a core part of her brain along with Ji Yuelan's spiritual energy, where Zhang Tie "saw" a bizarre scene.
This scene was like being seen by eyes. It was even more vivid than that.
Zhang Tie "saw" a golden "insect" drawing and absorbing Ji Yuelan's spiritual energy from her mind sea constantly in a mysterious central region of her brain; meanwhile, the "insect" was changing its frame as if it was hatching.
What was more terrifying was that it was not a real insect; instead, with Zhang Tie's close observation spiritually, he found that the "insect" was actually composed of numerous tiny bizarre tadpole-shaped golden runes. If that "insect" was taken as a set of machine, those tiny bizarre tadpole-shaped golden runes were like the parts of this machine.
Zhang Tie was pretty shocked by such an unimaginable method. As an immortal craftsman, Zhang Tie was also petrified by such a "virus" or "insect" being completely composed of mysterious runes. He wondered who could create such a great, secret rune skill as this secret skill had long been out of the reach of Zhang Tie in the realm of runes.
Zhang Tie finally knew why his senior antidote was ineffective to such a virus; because it could never be relieved by medicament at all.
Despite the great shock, Zhang Tie was still seriously observing the golden "insect" which was composed of numerous tiny bizarre tadpole-shaped golden runes in order to discover some secrets.
As time passed by, the "insect" was also slowly changing its frame. Watching its unfolding "insect", Zhang Tie gradually opened his mouth as he revealed an increasingly greater shock.
Because Zhang Tie gradually found that this "insect" was more and more like the image of an egg of "puppet parent worm" in one's brain that he had seen numerous times in the world where he came from. He was too familiar with it. Besides trampling too many eggs of puppet parent worm to death, he also owned some puppet parent worms. He even killed a lot of demons with the eggs of puppet parent worm. He was absolutely sure about that.
Zhang Tie finally realized that the so-called Golden-Soul Rune Virus was an extremely bizarre item combining a powerful runed secret skill and a puppet worm owned by demons which was used to control people. It could thoroughly break through the great defensive abilities of knights or immortal generals. Being much more senior than puppet worms, they could directly turn knights or immortal generals into puppets under the control of others despite with clear consciousness.
If someone could realize mass production of Golden-Soul Rune Virus and control all the immortal generals across Motian Realm using it, undoubtedly, that person would be able to dominate the entire Motian Realm.
When he thought about that possibility, Zhang Tie's back started to ooze sweat out of shock. Before coming here to save them, he had never imagined such a dirty and dangerous thing behind this event.
Who the hell could master such an amazing method among the powers in Motian Realm?
