Qi Suian had no other choice. He could only temporarily use the Divine Purification Force Field to restrict the developnt of the Pillar of Flesh and Blood.
If nothing unexpected happened, he could stall for another month.
However, this ant he couldn’t leave, which made him frown in frustration.
Fortunately, he began to study the Pillar of Flesh and Blood, so he wasn’t just sitting idle.
He made great progress; for example, he gained a lot of inspiration for the developnt of his virus talent.
On so level, the Pillar of Flesh and Blood was the Profound Virus, yet it possessed powerful control over the Profound Virus itself.
It was precisely this powerful control that allowed it to resist the Divine Purification Force Field.
This gave Qi Suian a solution: if he could strip away the Pillar of Flesh and Blood’s powerful control, its entire form would collapse.
Although it possessed the two traits of being undying and indestructible, it would just turn into an ever-expanding puddle of flesh.
But the idea was simple; executing it was not so easy.
Even the slightest weakness of the strong is not sothing the weak can challenge.
This ant that Qi Suian knew how to solve the problem, but lacked the power to do so.
’The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.’ Qi Suian naturally coveted the Pillar of Flesh and Blood. After all, it was the life force of the Profound God.
However, he understood that in his current state, if he actually tried to take it, he would probably die on the spot.
’There is actually another way—a risky gambit.’ Qi Suian looked at the Black Jade·Source of Profound Virus, which was curled up in his arms, continuously emitting waves of fear.
His idea was relatively simple: have the Black Jade swallow the Pillar of Flesh and Blood. A snake swallowing an elephant.
He couldn’t handle the Pillar of Flesh and Blood, but could he not handle the Source of Profound Virus?
To put it more simply, after he let the Source of Profound Virus devour the Profound God’s life force, he would seize the opportunity and shove it directly into a module slot.
As for why he didn’t just shove the Pillar of Flesh and Blood in directly—it wasn’t because it was too big. He could even stuff a fighter jet into a module slot.
It was because the Pillar of Flesh and Blood was alive and would resist.
The Source of Profound Virus had self-awareness, true, but it was just an item. It had no power to resist.
Secondly, Qi Suian couldn’t wait that long.
He still needed so ti before his next module slot unlocked, and before that, he had to raise his virus talent to A-rank.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the amplification from the Source of Profound Virus after it entered the module slot.
This ant he couldn’t go out to catch and burn Zombie People. Furthermore, the mont he left and the Pillar of Flesh and Blood escaped the Divine Purification Force Field, its growth rate would skyrocket.
By the ti he returned, the difficulty would have increased yet again.
So for now, he could only bide his ti.
’There are two problems with the "snake swallowing an elephant" plan.’
’If the Source of Profound Virus devours the Profound God’s life force, it will definitely turn on .’
’So I’ll also have to get rid of the consciousness within the Source of Profound Virus.’
It was as the saying goes: "Weak, it obeys; strong, it rebels."
This principle also applied to the Source of Profound Virus. When it had no power to resist, it naturally endured whatever ca its way. But once it gained autonomy, it might even turn around and devour Qi Suian.
’But if I erase the consciousness in the Source of Profound Virus, the Profound God’s life force might just take its place.’
He would indeed be shoving the Profound life force into a module slot, but the problem was, what if the resulting quality was SSS-rank or even X-rank? Not even the Tai Sui God’s module slot would be able to control it.
At the sa rank, it would have the ability to resist. A rank higher, and it could deal a dinsion-lowering strike.
Nurous thoughts surfaced in Qi Suian’s mind. Then, a flash of inspiration struck, and a solution appeared.
’The second consciousness from the Divine Spirit Container Technology!’
’With the help of my luck, it’s perfectly reasonable to have a sudden flash of inspiration with the solution.’
If Qi Suian used his own second consciousness to replace the consciousnesses within the Source of Profound Virus and the Profound God’s life force, wouldn’t that solve everything?
His research into the second consciousness was actually quite advanced. He could even develop drugs to suppress a second consciousness, but it wasn’t worth the effort for him since he didn’t need to.
Moreover, a second consciousness born from the Profound Virus within his body would be completely different from the second consciousness of those Zombie People.
Because he and the Profound Virus had already achieved symbiosis, even if a second consciousness were born, it would be dominated by the Profound Virus’s instincts.
This ant the second consciousness would share his fate, and wouldn’t even think of resisting him. Instead, it would protect him.
’A viral symbiosis still isn’t safe enough. I need to keep improving it.’
He was confident, yes, but he didn’t feel secure.
So the best thod was to wait until his virus talent reached A-rank, giving him complete control over the Profound Virus, and then give birth to the second consciousness.
As for the thod of transplanting it into the Source of Profound Virus, Qi Suian had a ready-made plan.
From his S-rank talent, Puppet Master, Qi Suian had learned the basics. He could use ripple-like vibrations of his Spirit frequency to peel off the second consciousness and transmit it directly into the Source of Profound Virus.
As for the original consciousness of the Source of Profound Virus, that was even simpler. Whether by forcing it out or slowly consuming it, he could handle it.
Qi Suian preferred the forr.
Letting it fend for itself was better than devouring it. Not everything was edible.
’Set a goal: complete the advancent of my virus talent within three days.’
’Unlimited supply of Death Potions!’ This ti, Qi Suian had truly been forced into a corner. If he couldn’t solve this, he would definitely die.
To say nothing of anything else, once the Profound God’s life force—this Pillar of Flesh and Blood—succeeded, it would absolutely strip the Celestial Fate: Profound from his body.
Without this X-rank talent, Qi Suian, a "violator," would be imdiately erased by the doomsday ga.
’This feeling again... It’s really not good.’ Qi Suian didn’t particularly like being pushed into action by danger.
But there was nothing to be done. He had been infected right from the start, and his entire foundation was tied to it.
This had led to the current situation, which had beco like crossing a single-plank bridge. Among the three parties, there could only be one winner-takes-all victor; there was no room for a draw.
"Thankfully, you’re here," Qi Suian said, looking at the Profound God’s life force—the Pillar of Flesh and Blood. "Otherwise, at a normal pace, I wouldn’t even be confident in advancing my virus talent in thirty days. Truly, a curse and a blessing all in one."
The Pillar of Flesh and Blood’s ability to control the Profound Virus served as a huge reference for Qi Suian.
It saved him a great deal of ti and provided him with a path to the solution. Now, he just needed to follow this path in his research.
Then, Qi Suian could also turn the tables, going from passively accepting the Profound Virus’s protection to actively commanding its control.
He would make the Profound Virus completely a part of himself.
"Ti to get to work." After speaking, Qi Suian unhesitatingly chugged a bottle of Death Potion and imdiately activated his seed-eruption state.
Things had co to this; naturally, he had to go all out.
The primary function of the seed-eruption state wasn’t for combat, but to assist his learning and research. Combat was just a secondary function.
