《Behold the Bacterium》Chapter 3 - Encounter with an Alien
Advertisement
Fion stood there for a minute , processing the events unfolded before him. Then , he moved closer to the box to take a look. When Fion pulled the handle which was in the anterior of the box, it suddenly opened to expose the full body of the teen.what he saw was a paled youth who may be the same age as him with a fragile weakened body.
“”Hmm … even a few bones were broken .. such a pitiful body. Even though he has vast amounts of bacterial pool , he looks very ordinary … Did he even cultivate .. “ Fion was in a state of turmoil.
It’s obvious that the teen was already dead but there is no trace of the teen being a cultivator , since once one enters the first realm , his whole body will be strengthened ,so even if he died , his body will stay intact for at least some years . But, seeing the body , one can easily deduce that the teen died recently since all the bacteria present in the body were still living. Once an organism died , all the bacteria present in his body will die within a week , whom ever it may be and it also doesn’t matter how high cultivation that organism has.
“Let me use my bacterial sense to see your constitution” Fion closed his eyes and began to concentrate on his soul, which gives him a extra sense to survey the surroundings. This sense is called bacterial sense , and every cultivator will develop one when one first enters the entry realm ‘plaudit’ stage. It will grow as one’s cultivation became stronger and stronger.
When one has bacterial sense , he will become aware of all the bacteria surrounding him , and the sensitivity would increase as he grow in cultivation . Fion's bacterial sense has very low sensitivity and he has to focus on something to scan it , all because of his cultivation loss.
He began focusing on the teen’s body and started studying his bacterial constitution. He can’t identify any of the bacteria present in the teen’s body. Also , he seemed to find different kinds of bacteria doing some unique metabolism process.Even his biological process were all different from this world’s human,since people of ‘Bartlen’ normally born with one type of bacteria present through out their whole body and it will take over all of the person’s metabolism.

Roughly , 5 minutes had passed as fion started breathing heavily. It’s a given that with his weak cultivation ,he can’t use bacterial sense for very long , it will be extremely tiring. But that’s half of the reason for his panting
“How can such a body exist in this world ? Did he even belongs to this world ? … ” a serious of questions arose within his mind , after he scanned half of the teen’s carcass. He found billions of bacteria living in the carcass and that too was his lowest estimation of the numbers.
“I can be sure that this is not a coincidence , may be the person behind this will be really powerful as one in legends , i better not get into trouble .. besides its getting dark ..” he sighed as he left the wilderness to his home.
During the return journey, his mind was filled with events happened that day, an idea abruptly struck his mind. His life was deeply affected by the transfusion process so why can’t he use the same method to bet back his life and cultivation. His whole body trembled with excitement upon mere thought of the process.If the body still remains tomorrow , then he decided that he will undergo transfusion with the help of that teen’s body.
But , this line of thought hit a wall when he thought of transfusion, Other than being a victim , he don’t know anything about it. He can’t even ask any of his clan members as he will likely to be betrayed again.
“If only my mother was still alive … ” grief pounded his heart as he entered base of Yu Clan. Memories of his mother flooded in his mind as he thought of the day when he learns that his failure in breakthrough was due to wrong Qi pellets administered by his first Aunt.
This was discovered when his mother investigated his failure . She found out that the pills Fion used for breakthrough only has half of it’s usual amount of Qi. While this may do no harm to a person during normal conditions, but while breakthrough , it can cause Qi deficiency for the bacteria which will lead to a catastrophic rebound for the person. In addition , no one will find any fault with the break through and can only blame on person’s talent for the failure . Due to this , in any clan , they will only allow their most trusted member to concoct pills for their advancement.

In Yu clan , Fion’s first aunt “Zhang Min Yu” who was also the clan leader’s wife was an accomplished alchemist. Obviously , she was the only person who would concoct all pills for the members for their breakthrough. In addition to that , she never made a mistake in any other previous breakthroughs.
Even a stupid person can infer that she harbour evil intentions against fion from these occurrences . It was because of her second son’s talent was foreshadowed by fion at birth. Even the treatment she experienced differed after this. She was the daughter of one of the Yu Clan’s main elder. In contrast to this, fion’s mother was only from some distant brach family.
When the clan learns of this, every one was fuming with anger, unfortunately her son’s transfusion process succeeded and lianshu eventually protected her .No one could do anything at that point since he was the Clan’s sole hope.He also demanded that Fion should be banished to outer sect of the Yu Clan.
Fion later came to know that both Zhang Min Yu and her son lianshu conspired together against him. Lianshu was always jealous of Fion for his talent , so when the tables finally turned against him , he endlessly harassed both Fion and his mother by instigating other members of the clan
Fion’s father didn’t even try to stop any of these things nor helped her. To him , welfare of his clan was more important to anything else. With Lianshu being the prime instigator , he left his wife and son alone to fend for themselves.
Fion’s mother “Sera Yu” was always a gentle and virtuous person. Even after her husband forsaken her , she did’t get depressed and continued to take care of Fion.She was the only reason , Fion kept his sanity after this incident. But , when she was finally raped by some members and forced to walk to her home naked , she was utterly broken, unable to bear the shame and finally committed suicide.
Fion finally reached the base of the small mountain in the outskirts of Yu Clan base , where he and his mother had constructed a house made of leaves ,branches and hides.After resting for a while , he proceeded to walk towards the Clan’s library to search for information on transfusion.
After reaching the library , he saw a old man sleeping profusely near the entrance. He then entered the library without making a sound. Since it’s already dark, there will almost be no one in the library. Fion moved towards a stack which contains books about alchemy , transfusion etc. He glanced at all the alchemy books a little before taking the book about transfusion from the stack.
The book was very small and it has only a few pages.Fion read all the content before imprinting them into his mind. It’s already been an hour since he came in. He placed the book from where he took without any small misalignment. When he came out of the library , he saw the same old man still sleeping in the same posture
“It’s a good thing that this old geezer didn’t wake up or else i will have to go through some troubles again” Fion inwardly thought to himself as he increased his pace and returned to his hut.
Sitting in a meditative posture , he began to analyse all the information he read earlier in the library. According to it , he needs a nuclei crystal from a vale beast and needed huge amount of Qi energy to make the bacteria move out of the hosts body. That’s why the clan invited a powerful expert from the kingdom to do the transfusion.
That expert felt pity for Fion because Fion didn’t even know about the rebound , but since it was a royal decree from the kingdom ,he had no choice but to comply with the order.But, before he left, he gave a signalling crystal to Fion and told him that he would help him one time about any of his request , if it still was within his proficiency
Fion wanted to ask for his help but hesitated because even though that expert may be righteous , with such a heaven defying body , human greed may crop up anytime and if it does , Fion will surely lose his life. After a deep thought , he finally decided to take the risk , since his life was already lost as it is now.
While lying on the cold , bare ground , a small smile pop up on his face as he thought of the future possibilities.
