Chapter 359: Liquid

Sam looked at the dead body which didn't show any signs of movement, but the body instantly aged due to the escape of the vitality, the body became extremely dry and skin cracked.

He checked the body once again and he found out that except for the escape of the vitality and the immediate change that happened to the body due to that sudden escape, the body is still extremely strong and solid.

He watched as the body slowly turned into the Undead. Sam doesn't know why this happened, because from what Philip said, they only turned into undead when they are absorbed by others.

If he does compare the vitality escaping his body to another person as absorbing, then this undead phenomenon does make sense.

Sam observed the body and noticed that he only killed the person by damaging the heart with his spiritual disintegration. But the rest of the body is extremely intact.

Sam wanted to confirm this, but this time, he severed the head of another follower and made sure that both the body and head are extremely distant without any form of contact, this time, the vitality did escape but most of it was diffused into thin air.

Apart of the vitality though was completely absorbed by the third remaining follower.

He looked at the last remaining follower who absorbed the vitality and noticed that his strength really did increase, but he is still a Novice.

He felt like he needs more subjects to determine how this undead system works.

But now, he has a live subject and an undead subject and started doing experiments.

He started gathering herbs that are related to the vitality. He started experimenting with all the available herbs at his hand and other types of ingredients like beast blood and all the stuff he could get his hands on.

He shifted the experiment to the Divine dimension tower. He let out the beasts into the sky scraper so that they would have some free time.

Their reunion has happened after a few months, they don't know what the situation is, but they do know that something is wrong with Sam, when they were unable to come out.

But to their dismay, they don't have much time to have some free chat.

For the next three days, he spent the time inside the tower as he kept on simulating various things that are available to him.

After so much time, there is not much he could do and finally, he decided to use the things that are of Yanwu and the rest.

After trying so many things, he finally got some results after trying everything and he is trying to decide whether he should use test their blood or not.

That is the excretions of the Yanwu.

That is right, he finally saw some results when he got the faeces of Yanwu. This idea came because of what he observed from one of the experiments he conducted before.

He has once stored the faeces of Yanwu within the divine dimension and noticed that there is something wrong within the surroundings of the faeces pit.

More than half of the fire elemental zone in the divine dimension was filled with most of fire elemental grasses which act as feed for the cattle type beasts that are inside the dimension.

Ape is responsible for replanting them as soon as they are finished. The grass grew stronger at all the other faeces pits which contained faeces of Blazing earth bull and even other fire type beasts.

But the one pit, which contains Yanwu's faeces doesn't have any form of grass around it.

That is not because of the lack of vitality, rather the vitality that was present on that spot was being disturbed completely due to these excretions.

At first, he was almost ready to give up and just focus on defending the city properly and doesn't want to get involved in the war unless he was implicated.

But now, he just wanted to give a final try, he felt that the vitality within the bodies of these people are the key to deal with this.

Yanwu's faeces are not useful to him until now and the methane is also not flammable enough due to the mixture of the light element in Yanwu's blood line.

This light element has some effects on the vitality.

Sam collected some of the faeces, they are mostly in liquid form just like any other bird's excrements.

Sam started processing it to make it more liquified and sprayed it over the follower who is still alive.

And he noticed a difference, the small amount of spray was instantly absorbed into the body due to the spiritual energy content and the lump of vitality was extremely disturbed.

The lump of dense vitality started getting dispersed and became extremely diluted. A small amount of vitality was escaped from his hand and started diffusing into the atmosphere.

He created more of the liquid and started changing the concentration of the fluid along with various herbs that influence vitality.

Time passed.

He came out of the tower only after he was done with the liquid that works on the followers for sure.

When he came back, there is a new wave of attacks and Philip came with a new battle report from the major powers.

"The Church got a hold of another two minor powers and lost in two more minor powers. They seemed to have sped up the process and they seemed to be dealing the whole war as a do or die thing.

The Church seemed to be in an extreme rush, they are dealing with the minor powers and doesn't seem to care whether they win or not at all.

But there is a really an influx in the followers appearing in the western continent.

Even our city is fully surrounded by followers, but there are no more people raining out of nowhere since the formations are activated.

And by the way, the amount of undead are increasing, in the last wave of attacks, twenty percent of people who came are undead."

Sam thought for a moment and asked.

"Did you say my conjecture to Arc? What did he say?"

"He did think that there is some sense in your words, but there is no news from the thunder god temple."

"Okay, then, send this liquid to the front lines and see if it works, if it doesn't work, I will try something else. Don't forget to record the whole process of what happened after using that liquid."

That day, there is an extremely huge change in the war situation within the western continent.

Particularly within the vicinities of the Sam's city. Instead of firing the impact shells, they sent wooden drums full of golden- brown coloured liquid that was sent flying into the air and rained down on the church followers.

The followers who were soaked in this liquid felt their bodies absorbing it continuously and the vitality that is supporting their bodies and strengthening their bodies suddenly felt like collapsing and their bodies turned extremely weak.

Right in front of the astonished soldiers, they started ageing in a rapid pace and the young men and women turning into old men.

Their muscle mass was gone, the hair fell down and their kegs started trembling as they were unable to hold the weight of the bodies for a moment of time.

Within an hour, the troops are completely gone without a trace. Only some undead remained and they are also taken care of within a few minutes.

Philip came back running to Sam, who is sitting on the roof of the sky scraper with the rest of his beasts.

He missed them for the past few months. At least, he didn't lock them up inside the tower.

"Sam, what is inside that liquid? the troops are completely done in an instant."

"Did you record everything?"

"Of course, I did."

"Send the recording to Arc. Call him through the communication tower and play it in front of him. Tell him all the affects you have seen and ask him to send the news to the thunder god temple."

"Sam don't you think there will be problems that arise due to the major powers. What if they want the liquid completely?"

"What is the point? They don't have any use for it after the war. Even if they want to cash in with this liquid, we have to see if they want an extra enemy other than the Old one at a time like this.

We are not just some youth who are trying to make it Philip. We are already established. We might not directly make any difference in this war with our fists alone, but it is a completely different ball game if they want to come and knock on our front door.

I don't know about the rest of the world, but I can assure you of one thing no matter who it is in the world, they wouldn't be able to kill us within this city. Even if we have to die, I will take down three Consummate realm cultivators with us.

We don't have to be afraid of anyone, at this moment, we are doing them a favour. Let us hope they are at least a bit grateful, otherwise I do have my ways to deal with them."
