《Behold the Bacterium》Chapter 8 - Recuperation
Advertisement
Fion stood there like a war god, who had just slaughtered millions of warriors and came back. Blood was dripping from all over his body to the ground. The sound of each blood drop hitting the ground was like the beating of the drums for arrival of a death god. He took some ordinary medical pills and put it in his mouth.
That same time, the chief who was clinging to his dear life by a hair’s breadth crawled towards a pillar in the room. Then, he tried to get up by using the pillar as a support, but his body betrayed him. He stumbled repeatedly and somehow finally mustered all of his strength and leaned on the pillar. His mind was still in chaos by the defeat. In this entire life, he never heard of a martial art which allows one’s attack power to surpass an entire realm
The chief was already on the verge of death, but being a mitogene late phase expert, his regeneration was much higher, so if he can somehow convince Fion to forgive him, then he can close the death’s door and recover quickly. This confidence also stems from the medicinal pills which he had in his ring.
Fion approached , his each step was like a stabbing in chief’s heart. He looked at the chief indifferently, as he can easily figure out what he thought from his face.
“Do you know how i beat you ? can you guess ? do you want to know ?” asked fion a series of questions, which surprised the chief.
“I have never seen anything so powerful, i can’t guess at all , … it’s like it’s beyond my realm of understanding, i would really like to know how you beat me as i cant’t even guess a reason ….. but one thing i do realise was that you are the greatest genius … that i had came … across in my whole life ” chief struggled to speak as he declared his words, but he was slightly happy in his heart. He thought that fion will spare him as he can’t find any trace of rage in his eyes. So, he decided to bootlick him as much as possible.
Fion laughed a bit, then his expression turned grim taking a 180 degree turn “Sorry, i was just kidding, Now Die without knowing ” He concentrated last of his Yuan Qi in his hand and slit the chief’s throat. Blood gushed from his neck, as his eyes was filled with despair.
He just saw the glimpse of hope but was immediately taken away from him. Both his body and soul were filled with grief and misery, he saw the face of fion in his last moments as life was slowly seeped out of him.
Fion then took the chief’s space ring and slowly turned around. Due to the medical pill, the blood flowing from his wounds stopped, but there were still left over blood all over his body. He turned his attention towards the remaining members of the group and asked

“Who’s next ? ” his question struck fear in all the humans present, as everyone retreated by a few steps. He saw each and everyone of them as he slowly walked towards an undamaged room in the floor. Some even peed instantly when Fion’s gaze met them. Fion closed the door, before he fell on a carpet. He clenched his teeth so hard, as he was unable to withstand the pain.
Some of the cells in his body were dead because of overwhelming amounts of Qi. He took some cell revital pellets from his space ring, crushed it into fine powder and sprinkled onto places where his cells died. It instantly began to do it’s job as it speeds up the cells regeneration process. This is the last of the medical pellets that fion had in his ring.
This cell revital pellet was more valuable than the ordinary medical pellets which he took during the fight. That ordinary pellets will only stop the bleeding by a little amount and helps in healing small injuries. All medicinal pellets no matter how high or low grade, depends on Yuan Qi produced by the bacteria for it’s healing process. When Fion first took the ordinary pellet, he discovered that it was healing him at a rate which was abnormal, he immediately realised that it’s all because of his bacteria. That’s why he only took ordinary pellets through out the whole battle and still been able to fight.
His whole body felt stinging, but he didn’t even make a sound. In his present condition, even a normal human can kill him, so he dared not make a sound as it will reveal his weakness. Even though he thoroughly scared all of the remaining members, he didn’t dare take the risk, instead he withstood the pain. After an hour of hellish pain, he finally calmed down. He then slowly activated 1 % of his bacterial pool as the effects of the revital pill began to increase. He slowly increased his activation and finally stopped at 4 % which he felt like the limit now.
He sat in a meditative posture and allowed the pills to do it’s job effectively. After sitting like that for half a day, he finally opened his eyes. He felt refreshed, nearly all of his dead cells were formed again and all his replied cells were completely renewed. He thought about the battle especially the last couple of seconds where he was faced with silver eagle strike Martial art.
He even heard that Martial art during his stay at the clan. It was a high rank xing grade Martial art. Even though martial arts were divided into several grades like how cultivation was divided into stages, there was only three grades of martial arts known to humanity. Starting from the lowest, they are classified into xing grade, hermit grade and relic grade and is further divided into low rank, mid rank and high rank and the relic grade martial arts were only heard of in the legends.This shows how much valuable the silver eagle strike was. Even his Yu clan has only 2 high rank Xing grade martial arts.

He then took all the items from the chief’s ring and explored it. The chief was surprisingly wealthy as he had medium amount of different kinds of medicinal pellets, some red autumn pellets, large amount of spark stones, it even has some vile beasts nuclei and vine stones. Sadly, he can’t find the manual of the silver eagle strike. He took a deep glance at the medicinal pellets before sorting out the items. He placed all the valuable items like red autumn pellets, vile beasts nuclei, vine stones etc in his own space ring and stored the remaining items in the chief’s ring which surprisingly has a larger storage area than his own ring.
He wondered how a leader of this feeble group was able to accumulate such wealth. He got up and expanded his senses outside of the room and found out that there were only slight movements from the remaining members. With a slight relief, he came out of the room. He noticed that the chief’s corpse was missing. He didn’t give much thought since he himself saw the death and continued forward.
While walking towards the exit, he saw the scar faced man who looks like he was waiting for Fion. Fion had very good impression on him, even though they both tried to kill each other. When they fight, all of scar faced man’s attack was precise and can at most cause heavy injuries if connected. Fion also wondered how he knows a martial art. Even though it’s power is inferior to eagle strike, it was still a martial art.
“How did you know that Martial art ” Fion questioned.
The other person had somewhat predicted that Fion will ask this and he immediately replied “I was originally an expert from Chen province. During a battle, i got severely injured and lost some of my bacteria. So my cultivation decreased by three sub phases, As i had many enemies in my province, i decided to move to lesser ranked province. Along the journey, i met Lan Je, whom everyone calls as chief, who was also running from his pursuers. He was also an expert from a small clan in chen province. He stole the silver eagle strike martial art from the clan. The clan eventually found out and chased after him. We journeyed together and reached Yu province. Here, we formed a group and the rest is history as you know it”
Fion raised his eyebrows, thought for a while “I see, and … do you know where the silver eagle strike manual is ” Fion asked. For him, That manual is more valuable than the origins of these group.
Scar faced man sighed as he shakes his head “Lan Je destroyed the manual after he memorised it”
Fion exhaled, then he turned around and looked at the few women standing there. Almost all of them were beautiful with curved hips, long and slender thighs with cute face. One can immediately realise that they were from rich and noble families in the town. Once, they were hailed as the beautiful flowers of the town, now they were almost reduced to a state of slavery. Their clothes covered only their breast and waists, and even these clothes were so thin and were extremely revealing. Fion sighed as he thought of the miseries suffered by these ladies under Lan Je’s hands.
He gave half the amount of spark stones, which he got from Lan Je’s ring to Scar faced man.
“Take good care of these ladies” he said and finally turned to walk towards the exit of the town hall. That’s all he can do for these young ladies. He can’t bring them with him nor he can stay here to take care of them.
When he was about to leave the town hall, the voice of scar faced man could be heard
“Fion, Be extremely cautious while travelling in the wilderness. Remember that even two tailed rats were evolved to peak phase of plaudit stage, so you don’t even need to think about how powerful, the other creatures would have gotten ”
Fion frowned. He know that two tailed rats had the worst bacterial composition among all the martial beasts. They will always be at entry phase of plaudit realm for their entire lives. If even these beasts were gotten this much powerful, then …. Fion tried hard not to think of that scenarios.
“Senior, thanks for the warning, can i know your name ?” Fion shouted as his voice reverberated through the entire town hall
“Wang Ru” a mild voice came from inside the town hall
“Ru clan, i see“ Fion mumbled , “Wang Ru , See you later in the future ” he also wished good bye in a subtle manner.
Wang Ru saw the back of Fion as he walked out of the town hall, he felt admiration and respect for him from the bottom of his heart. He was so Young, yet so determined and courageous. The flame which was extinguished when he lost his cultivation once again lit up in his heart. He decided to rebuild the silver eagle group from the scratch, this time as a group which was worthy of respect
