This entity rooted itself within Emperor Mu, seemingly merging with him.
Levi was concerned that directly pulling it out might harm Emperor Mu. Fortunately, Clay had long prepared a potion capable of separating a totem insect.
Pressing Emperor Mu against the wall with tremendous force, Levi caused the wizard tower to tremble. If Levi’s arrays hadn’t reinforced it, a standardized wizard tower for residence might have collapsed.
Then, he injected the entire bottle of potion into Emperor Mu.
Accompanied by Emperor Mu’s agonizing screams, Levi showed no mercy.
The Golden Aberration Insect knew it would face dire consequences once outside, so it stubbornly resisted leaving.
Levi continued the injection. Upon completion, he sneered and transformed into a blood fog, entering Emperor Mu’s body.
He observed numerous golden blood vessels resembling puppeteer’s strings deeply embedded in every inch of Emperor Mu’s flesh, even reaching his brain and heart.
“Thank goodness my blood fog form is a natural surgeon.”
The blood fog transformed within Emperor Mu’s body into extremely fine, miniature blood blades. These golden blood vessels were swiftly severed, one after another.
After a while, Emperor Mu finally stopped struggling completely.
His back was riddled with densely packed cavities, golden light emanating from within.
During this period, his body had nearly been completely devoured by the Golden Aberration Insect.
“I wonder if he can still survive.”
Levi grabbed the Golden Aberration Insect that was lunging at him, attempting to enter his own body.
“What audacity! Parasitizing my team members is bad enough, and now you dare to infest me?”
Levi was feeling quite annoyed at this point. This creature had nearly killed one of his team members.
He forcefully crushed the Golden Aberration Insect in his hands, causing it to crack and spew golden fluid under Levi’s immense strength.
“Get in there. Behave yourself, and once I develop the Purification Elixir, you’ll be at peace,” Levi said sternly.
Levi placed the Golden Aberration Insect into a specially crafted container prepared by Clay, sealing it along with the Toxic Swarm.
His blood fog worked diligently within Emperor Mu’s body, repairing his internal organs as much as possible. This function was a recent discovery for Levi.
He could partially transform his blood fog form to mend his own wounds and, naturally, enter someone else’s body to facilitate repairs.
For legendary knights of Levi’s constitution, such injuries were inconsequential and easily healed. However, Emperor Mu, being a Strength-type legendary knight, though much tougher than an average person, was still uncertain to survive such severe injuries.
Regardless, Levi had administered his best potions to Emperor Mu. As a team leader, his care for his members was indeed rare.
After completing these tasks, Levi settled Emperor Mu and began his own cultivation while awaiting Emperor Mu’s recovery.
At the very least, Emperor Mu still showed signs of vitality, and Levi believed he could pull through.
Upon waking up, Emperor Mu might feel a mix of relief and confusion, finding that the support of his Golden Spine Bone was gone.
Time passed quickly, three months in the blink of an eye. During this period, Levi split his time between cultivation and studying Clay’s notes and the Bug Luminist’s book.
His main focus was the formula for the Purification Elixir. Some ingredients were common in the Wizard World, but the rest seemed exclusive to that world.
This somewhat dampened Levi’s enthusiasm, as he had initially intended to thoroughly research Totem Insects. Now it seemed he had to postpone that plan.
The 1074th year of the Holy Brilliance Calendar, the Month of Grass.
Six months after the fall of the Black Water Tower, the Black Sun Steeple did not dispatch any new dark wizards to the Yellow Earth Continent.
Their resources were stretched thin, and they were no longer determined to conquer the Yellow Earth Continent.
As a result, the Yellow Earth Continent and Area 7 were temporarily secure, avoiding the fate that befell Area 9.
Within Lion King City, the once despairing atmosphere began to dissipate. The Old Golden Lion hosted several banquets to express gratitude to Levi.
Levi easily obtained a copy of the “Golden Lion Breathing Technique” from the Golden Lion Jostar Family. However, it was evident that this breathing technique was not the Perception-type Levi urgently needed.
Nevertheless, collecting a breathing technique that could advance to legendary status was always a positive outcome.
By the end of the Month of Grass, Emperor Mu finally woke up..
