The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2578 Experiments (3)

As the third drop entered Upir's body, Abby and the General became increasingly tense as the undead's aura rose to the peak of level 113 and threatened to rise to level 114.

The General in particular, was almost moved as he felt Upir's bloodlust reach a level where the creature could attack them at any moment.

Meanwhile, Upir seemed even more alive than he had been after their first attempt, with even his soul showing different signs.

Abby and Minos were pretty sure that Upir would last a few weeks even without the support of their divine ability, which was impressive.

His rationality was still there, but he surely saw them more as targets for his bloodlust than anything else.

For a moment, Minos wanted Otis to be there. Was the bloodlust only against normal creatures? Could an artificial being evoke the same feeling?

When the undead were about to jump on one of them, Minos saw he had to act. With a step forward, he entered the mind of the corpse and made the creature look only at him.

Upir felt something strange and forgot Abby and the General for a moment, seeing a six-winged dragon with silver and gold scales standing next to him, watching him intently.

Gulp!

He trembled as the mental suppression caused by a mere glance from Minos made him feel unable to move.

Even though he had almost reached level 114, he felt as if he were a wolf next to the mighty dragon that could crush him at any moment.

Even the General could feel Minos' power, even though the human was focusing almost all of his attention on Upir.

The general felt his entire body tremble as he glimpsed the power of the man with level 109 cultivation.

"Abby, we're going to use your skill on him repeatedly. We'll keep doing this until we've removed almost as much of the black liquid as we put into him," Minos said to the blue-haired woman.

Abby was currently shrouded in blue mist, using her innate ability to block out the feeling she felt from Upir's body.

Feeling far less fear than she should have in the face of a negative creature so much stronger than her, Abby moved to do as Minos commanded and manipulate her divine ability against Upir.

Minos didn't let Abby act alone. Even with a level 108 temporary cultivation, she couldn't control the mind of a level 113 peak corpse on her own. He helped her with the Hydras' Amulet, but also by weakening Upir's aura, leaving the corpse vulnerable to the blue-haired woman.

Upir opened his mouth, screaming in terror as he felt himself being 'skinned' alive by Abby and Minos.

"Mercy! Mercy, my masters!" He clenched his hands so tightly that his claws dug into his skin, exposing his undead flesh along with a bluish-black liquid.

"Shut up!"

With a command, Minos made Upir close his mouth and just scream through clenched teeth, no longer daring to shout words at them.

More and more black liquid left Upir's body as his bloodlust subsided, but his features remained unchanged.

Minos watched the changes in him while Abby used all her power on Upir, using his Bright Eyes and Incorruptible Heart to determine the true condition of their guinea pig.

After 30 minutes, Abby would return to level 107, exhausted and in need of rest, while Minos himself would feel his cultivation weakening and return to level 109.

At that point, he wouldn't be as exhausted as his wife, and he could keep Upir at bay on his own. But with the Infinite Seal and the Temporal Sands, Minos would put Upir in a time lock while they recovered.

"It was a good first attempt." He looked at the General with a smile on his face. "We can say that the black fluid can be used repeatedly. There doesn't seem to be any resistance, at least not in Upir's body. But we'll study it further over the next few days and test it on another corpse as well.

The other experiments Abby mentioned earlier we'll do when we have all the data from Upir's case and the other one we'll use."

"That sounds good. I'll keep watch while you two rest." The General agreed, anxious for the next results.

Minos recommended, "You'd better warn the Commander that I'll have to concentrate on the experiments for a few months. If I have to leave the headquarters before we're done, we could have problems."

The General agreed. He himself had seen how dangerous it had been to deal with Upir alone. But what if they had to deal with a corpse that did not have Abby's influence? Not only that, but Minos could boost his wife's powers. He definitely couldn't stay away while they had to take care of Upir and the future guinea pigs!

"I will send someone to warn him. Until you say that you can distance yourself from us, the guild won't pass on any mandatory activities to you," the General said before watching Minos start to cultivate.

Abby was already sitting in the lotus position, just as eager as the other two to continue experimenting with Upir.

If she could fully control Upir after removing all the black liquid from this corpse and he didn't lose his characteristics, then she and her faction could become much stronger in the short term.

The General was also interested, as this was the guild's way of resurrecting a powerful Celestial being!

...

After the first experiment with Upir, a week passed.

Minos, Abby, and the General spent almost 100% of their time in the Stuart family faction's cave, testing their theories and discoveries on Upir and the other corpse they were testing under the same circumstances as Upir.

They were still focusing on those two, but they already had some very promising answers, although not as 'perfect' as they had first thought.

They could really use Abby's ability to control the corpses that had been 'corrupted' by the black liquid. And it seemed that they could all get stronger and stronger depending on how much of the liquid they absorbed.

However, once they were 'decontaminated' by the black liquid, their strength and durability would gradually decrease.

As for the liquid that left their bodies after being 'decontaminated', they would start testing it today to discover its potential!
