Chapter 735: Bio-Warfare
Soon enough, her eyes flickered. A deep bottle of green color gazed into mine. Though skinny, barely skin on bone, she still flicked a wide smile.
"You did a great job," she said as she tried to stand up.
"Don't try and move, start by circulating your cultivation base," I said as I pulled a few pills.
"These are nourishing pills, their quality is high, but their potency is heavily limited. Your body cannot handle higher-level pills right now. Take these for now," I said.
She tried to move her arm, but the muscles on her arm were almost nonexistent. So I fed her the pills myself.
She swallowed the pills and they began nurturing her body slowly. The paleness of her skin slowly began fading and a blush of redness appeared on her face.
Her body was in a completely weakened state, and her soul was so tiny right now a mere sneeze could probably make her collapse.
I continued feeding her the pills, and slowly her cells began healing up. Water and pills, and more water and pills.
In a couple of hours, she could move her hands, and later she could stand.
Her body has gained more weight but she was far from safe.
"This is much better," she said. "You, a man of poison and medicine, I owe you my life. Speak your wish and I'll do what I can to help you achieve it." She said.
"For now, I don't need anything. Let's get you healthier first, your body needs nutrition, and your soul is heavily damaged. The first pills were for your body, and these are for your soul." I said as I handed her a new set of pills.
She grabbed them and took a look at them, then back at me. Her eyes clearing up more and more every moment.
I coughed as I was caught staring and said, "The damage to the soul is the most difficult to heal, due to your soul being separated for a long time. You're currently not 'alive,' but you're possessing your own body.
You need some time for the soul to fully fuse with the body then you can regain some of your cultivation base," I said.
The queen nodded and said, "That will take some time," she flexed her fist and said, "About three months… I should be able to fully fuse my soul with my body. As for my cultivation base… that needs more work, I'm almost a mortal right now," she said.
I was surprise, three months is pretty fast. I thought it would take her years.
"Are you accounting the time based on the quality of these soul rejuvenating pills?" I asked.
"Indeed, I cannot use my Heavenly Sutra to rejuvenate my soul, I have spoken of this before," she said.
"I see, well, I guess we can shorten the time then. These are pills that should help you reinforce your Soul slowly, and these…" I said, as I gave her even better soul rejuvenating pills that I placed next to her.
"Oh, this changes things greatly, I should be able to recover to a greater extent in less than a month, at least to a combat efficient state," she said.
"Good, I'll leave you here for the remainder of the month to recover on your own pace. If you have any questions, ask the automaton, he'll refer to me everything you'll need," I said.
"Thank you for your kindness," she said.
I teleported back to the open plains where Law was playing with the Purple Armored Lion.
Zhang Tian was meditating by himself and Dao Shen was moving about roaming the area.
"Where's the Fire King?" I asked.
"Oh, that guy, he went to the volcano area," Law said as he was rubbing the Purple Armored Lion's belly. "Cute guy," Law said.

"Yeah, he comes from my home planet, one of the very few things that are still alive," I said as I rubbed the lion's mane.
He seemed to have evolved a few times here, after all, he had all the Qi he would ever need to cultivate and no pressure to do so.
"Anyway, the Queen is recovering, and she should be good enough to help us out of this mess in some time," I said.
"Oh, that's pretty nice. Good news I guess, also, isn't that too fast? It hasn't been more than three days, since you went to heal her," Law said.
"Time difference. Anyway, I need to work on something now," I said as I looked at the almost dead Silver Rakshasa.
"How is it looking?" I asked Y.
"It is weakened enough to be safely transported to the autopsy area," Y said.
"Good get some puppets to take it there, I need to start working on these guys soon," I said.
Not long after, the Silver Rakshasa which was on the doorsteps of death was dragged away to the White Floor of the Lord of Lords pagoda.
Although the Queen was recovering there, the White Floor itself could be separated into multiple section. I always have a laboratory area by itself which is where the Rakshasas were sent to.
I went back to the White Floor and saw the three Rakshasas all strapped and wrapped on working tables.
I began by heading to the White Rakshasa, since they're the most numerous, I'll need to work the hardest on these.
This creature was something that went against the Heavenly Dao. A soulless fiend of death and devour. It lives only to kill and lay waste to the lands. Without purpose or goal other than destruction.
I'm surprised it didn't get struck to death by Heavenly Tribulation.
The moment I thought of that, it was like, -excuse the pun- I was struck by lightning.
The entire Thunder Domain is nothing but constant unstoppable lightning. A Lightning that would strike endlessly against the entire area. But it wasn't without goal. Maybe it was because these things existed, that the heavens wanted them destroyed.
However, since they were hidden and protected by the Bastion, they were never killed.
Though I doubt that's the case, it is a very probable situation. These things that goes against the heavenly Dao are bringing calamity upon themselves by simply existing.
Though I don't understand why they weren't struck by lightning back on their own planet…
I couldn't give a proper answer to this question so I just stopped thinking about it. The Bastion itself was feeding off the Lightning strikes, no wonder it retained its functionality for so long even without Soul Power.
As for the White Rakshasa, it's skin was hard, but not harder than my Neutron Steel needles.
I extracted some of its blood, which instantly froze the moment it went in contact with air. I used my own Soul Flame to heat it up, only for it to immediately turn into vapor.
Quite an interesting.
I did a few tests and realized that the blood needed to stay at supercool temperatures for it to retain its liquid state.
This mere fact was enough to eliminate almost half of my poisons. Because most of them require a 'warm blood' for them to work and function at.
I began by adding several types of Yin based Poisons into the blood samples extracted from the Rakshasas and waited to see if they would work.
One might ask, why am I doing this?
The answer is simple.
In war, all is fair.
Although Biochemical warfare is pretty fucked up, that only applies to humans. As for these things, they're gonna get what they fucking deserve.
After several attempts, I finally found a poison that reacted to the blood. It was a simple poison actually, made from the leaves of an Underworld Morning Flower. A very accessible plant that is found in abundance near mass cemeteries and places where a lot of death happened.
It is a flower that feeds off the negative energies of death, filling itself with Yin. But it's highly poisonous due to the fact that not only does it proliferates rapidly in coldness, it also consumes it to grow itself.
The affected blood sample immediately turned into a mass of black crystal shaped flowers that bloomed instantly.
I looked at the White Rakshasa which was almost drained completely out of its blood and threw in a small drop of the extract of the Underworld Morning Flower.
The moment the poison came in contact with its body, the creature began screeching and soon its body began rippling then cracked like hardened and dried paint. From the cracks hundreds of ice flowers emerged out of its body.
A vile being as this Rakshasa was easily turned into a beautiful artistic sculpture of monstrosity and the beauty of roses.
Now this poison is pretty damn effective. However, it has one issue, it is not able to spread from one to another, although it is extremely potent and fast acting, it will be useless unless it can spread.
So now I'll need to figure out a way to make it airborne.
