The End of the Extreme Dao: I Planted a Sacred Tree and Gained Immortality

Chapter 207 Usefulness, Addiction, and Treatment
The next day, Zhang Yuqi and Bai Xizhi rushed to Huo Ying's wooden house together.

Zhang Yuqi has lifted the illusion, and Bai Xizhi has regained consciousness. After knowing that Huo Ying has recovered his memory and has become extremely powerful, Bai Xizhi's face shows no joy or sadness, and she doesn't even feel surprised to see Liang Yao.

Huo Ying took in the expressions of the three women.

Liang Yao is stubborn and obedient, Zhang Yuqi wants more to repay a favor, and Bai Xizhi needs the power of Ailing Town to do research in order to conquer the source of her infectiousness.

"Huo Ying, what are you going to do by creating so many mutated infections?"

Zhang Yuqi didn't ask yesterday, but today she needed someone to break the silence, so she spoke first and pointed at the chef, Shigui, who was cooking.

Liang Yao was not interested in anything weird, but Bai Xizhi looked at the corpse for a while and was obviously interested.

"Liang Yao, from now on, you can no longer be lazy. Your ability needs to be improved quickly. Soon, I will use your purification ability."

Huo Ying pointed at Liang Yao seriously, then looked at Bai Xizhi: "I think your research is correct. The plan to awaken shared abilities may be the key to ending the doomsday."

It was rare to hear Huo Ying support her plan, so Bai Xizhi's indifference faded a little.

Finally, Huo Ying looked at Zhang Yuqi and said, "I have already mastered the method of advancing to level 4. In the coming days, I will take care of the town. Just focus on advancing to level 4."

Zhang Yuqi, Bai Xizhi and Liang Yao were not surprised. After all, Huo Ying could easily create a peak level 3 infection, so his ability must be at level 4 or above. It was normal for him to have the methods and experience for promotion.

"For a Level 4 infected person, it is not about increasing the infectiousness, but about finding ways to increase the resistance to the infectiousness and completely coexist with the virus in the body."

"Symbiosis?" Zhang Yuqi frowned. "So that's how it is. I have thought of this possibility, but symbiosis should be more difficult than improving infectiousness."

Glancing at Liang Yao, Zhang Yuqi no longer concealed the truth: "I have tried to use the purification ability I absorbed to clean up the infected virus, but the reduction of the virus will only reduce my strength, and there is no possibility for me to reach level four."

Huo Ying has two ways to help Zhang Yuqi advance to level four. One is to slowly experiment and increase Zhang Yuqi's resistance to the virus. The other is to subdue the level four arm monster that is developing in the future gene factory and let Zhang Yuqi absorb its power and directly obtain its level.

"Lowering the amount of virus does not mean improving the body's immunity." Huo Ying shook his head. Minor illnesses and serious illnesses are both illnesses. Real immunity means that the virus is still in the body, but they coexist perfectly and do not cause disease.

The infected people of Doomsday who want to advance to level four need to obtain the dispelling rune itself, which is the skeleton left by Pangu. When they are promoted to level four, their minds are also controlled by the gods.

Zhang Yuqi can take a shortcut to reach level four, but the purifying power absorbed by Zhang Yuqi is not pure and cannot be compared with Liang Yao after she enters level four.

If this precious experimental opportunity to advance to level 4 is wasted, it will be even more difficult for Liang Yao to advance to level 4 in the future.

It's not that Huo Ying favors one over the other, but the power of purification is very effective against the gods. When dealing with Tai Shang, it is possible that the power of purification may be used.

"Then what should I do now?" Zhang Yuqi looked at Huo Ying curiously: "Aren't you going to let me absorb your cells?"

"It's useless. You can transplant immortal cells, but your absorption ability is ineffective against immortal cells." Huo Ying had a plan in mind: "Wait a minute, I have a method that is more suitable for you."

Compared to Sage Cells, Wood Release Cells are more stable.

Almost all the survivors of the apocalypse became chakra warriors, but only Tai Nv succeeded in obtaining Wood Release.

To be precise, in the previous life, Huo Yingcai created a large number of chakra warriors through the fetal daughter, otherwise all human beings would be interfered with by natural energy and turned into monsters like Zhang Zhanhong.

If Zhang Yuqi directly absorbs Huo Ying's cells, she may not be able to resist the erosion of natural energy. It is safest to let Zhang Yuqi absorb the third-generation chakra cells transformed from the fetus.

So, the first step is that Huo Ying needs to find the bootlicker Zhang Zhanhong, and then go to Lianhai City to bring An Yu back. Finally, use the fetal girl transformation to make Zhang Yuqi absorb Wood Release, use her ability to inherit the power of Wood Release, increase her body's immunity and resistance, and try to see if she can truly coexist with the infectious power.

However, before that...

Huo Ying summoned several level 3 corpse ghosts and asked them to serve as servants of the three women. Then he left the house with a basket full of various vegetables.

Without waiting for the market day in Ailing Town, Huo Ying arrived at the door of Elsa and her daughter one day earlier than in his previous life.

Luna did not come out of the room. Elsa was full of vigilance, but as a level 3 infected person, she used the Yang Stone to confirm that Huo Ying was not weird, and then she opened the door.

"How do you know our address? How long have you been following us?" Elsa asked as she walked towards Huo Ying. When she was only three steps away from Huo Ying, Elsa stopped. She was confident that at this distance, no matter what abilities Huo Ying had, she could subdue him.

Huo Ying did not answer Elsa's words, but walked past Elsa and walked into the room.

"How dare you ignore me?" Elsa suddenly transformed. Tentacles suddenly grew on her forehead. Her body instantly became tall, and as if affected by natural energy, she turned into a black demon.

"Answer my question now!"

Demon Elsa roared, "How do you know our address? How long have you been following us?"

Ok?
Why does this question feel familiar?
Elsa stared at Huo Ying cautiously, approached him while asking questions, and stopped three steps away from Huo Ying.

She was confident that at this distance, no matter what abilities Huo Ying possessed, she could subdue him.

But Huo Ying ignored her and just passed her by.

Elsa immediately activated her ability and transformed into a demon. She was invincible in close combat among the third-level infected.

"How do you know our address? How long have you been following us?"

Elsa captured Huo Ying and interrogated him.

Ok?
Did I ask again?
Huo Ying put away his scarlet Sharingan. Elsa maintained the posture of opening the door and stood there blankly. Huo Ying walked sideways into the room and looked at Luna who hurriedly held the medicine jar in her arms.

"Is this the drug you developed?"

Huo Ying frowned when he saw the white powder inside.

Luna pursed her lips and stared at Huo Ying for a while. Her eyes fell on Huo Ying's basket. Seeing that there were different kinds of vegetables in it, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"If you don't like this stuff, then I won't make it anymore." Luna didn't waste any words. She opened a wooden barrel and poured all the white powder into the barrel.

sizzle.

The barrel was made of poplar wood and was filled with sewage. When the drugs were poured in, the parasites and microorganisms immediately boiled and devoured the white powder. After doing all this, Luna looked at Huo Ying seriously: "The drugs have been destroyed, and I will never make this kind of thing again. Maybe it's retribution. I made this kind of thing to harm people, but it also made my mother addicted to drugs."

"Since you can control my mother in an instant, you must be able to suppress her drug addiction. I am willing to work like a slave for you and atone for what I have done. If you have any instructions, please do as you please. I only ask you to save my mother's life."

Luna was a smart person. Before Huo Ying made any request, she took the initiative to find a reason to surrender. After seeing what was in Huo Ying's basket, Luna knew that Huo Ying did not want to kill her, but wanted to find her for something. Seeing that Huo Ying did not like drugs, she immediately destroyed the drugs to avoid Huo Ying's disgust.

Drugs were just a means for her to survive in the doomsday, and Huo Ying controlled the third-level infected Elsa with just a glance. If she could get the protection of such a strong man, drugs would be of no use.

The real villains are often smart people.

In the previous life, Luna was the first to discover the abnormality of Wood Release. In this life, Luna made the most correct choice again. Thinking about how this girl quietly made XN City addicted, if it weren't for her mother Elsa who was holding her back, Luna might have already established her own territory in the doomsday.

"You are a botanist. I brought these fruits and vegetables to tell you that no matter what materials you need, I can find them for you." Huo Ying put down the basket. There was no need for him to explain any more. It was not that troublesome to talk to a smart person. "I need you to help me develop something that can make the infected addictive, and you can also integrate the genes that modify the infected into it, so that they can spread this gene, just like..."

"It's like being infected with a virus." Luna added: "You don't have time to inject genes into the infected object one by one, so you have to create addiction and let the infected object take a large amount. The quantitative change will cause qualitative change, and finally mutate itself."

"In addition to being addictive, it is also contagious. It spreads through fighting, devouring, reproduction, and blood, and eventually all infected objects become what you want them to be."

Luna looked at Huo Ying and said slowly, "But humans are the most attractive to infected organisms. I may have a way to make up for the addictiveness and transmissibility, but if you really want it to spread, you must be prepared to use a large number of humans as sacrifices to spread this gene."

Luna felt relieved. She could see that Huo Ying cared about her drug-making business, but what Huo Ying wanted to do was also full of bloodshed. If Huo Ying agreed, then Huo Ying would be a bad guy just like her.

It is safer to submit to a bad person than to a good person.

Because good people cannot allow you to have stains.

But bad guys just need you to be loyal enough.

Huo Ying had thought of this problem a long time ago, and he happened to have mastered a way to use humans as sacrifices while avoiding killing.

As long as the person being sacrificed doesn't die, this problem won't exist.

"From now on, put your intelligence into research, and I will give you a chance to survive."

Huo Ying snapped his fingers, and two level three zombies flew from the sky, landed beside Luna, and slowly disappeared in Luna's surprised gaze.

Escape.

Absorbing chakra does not mean that one will definitely inherit Huo Ying's abilities. Everyone's physique is different. Just like Huo Ying does not have the ability of swift escape, but Black Panther has awakened the ability of swift escape. These two corpse ghosts have awakened the ability of transparent escape that has never appeared before.

"From now on, the two of them will protect you in secret. If you need anything, just talk to them and let them contact me."

"As for Elsa, I have already planted an illusion in her mind. As long as the drug addiction kicks in, the illusion will control her nerves. The rest depends on your guidance and her own willpower."

After speaking, Huo Ying stood up and left.

Passing by Elsa again.

Standing at the door, Elsa, who was immersed in the illusion, suddenly woke up.

Just as she was about to ask Huo Ying a question, Elsa suddenly shuddered.

That familiar feeling appeared again.

No, no, what’s going on? I feel like I’ve asked this man thousands of times!

Elsa turned around in horror and found her daughter sitting in the house safe and sound. For a moment she didn't know whether to be surprised or happy.

"Mom, come back. From today on, we are safe."

"Is that so..." Cold sweat broke out on Elsa's forehead. Her daughter's words proved that the familiar feeling just now was not an illusion. She was indeed tricked. She didn't even see the man make a move before she lost the ability to resist.

"I..." Elsa looked at her daughter guiltily. She always thought that she could be a support for her daughter. However, as a level 3 infected person, she was useless. Food was obtained by exchanging drugs made by her daughter, who was just an ordinary person. Danger was also dealt with by her daughter, who was just an ordinary person, when she lost the ability to resist.

As a level 3 infected person, she was useless and even became addicted to drugs, causing her daughter to worry every day.

Isn't she a little too useless?

Good, so sad.

I can’t stand it anymore, I must, I must find a way to have one.

"Lu, Luna, uh, did you use any seasoning on that man?" Elsa's eyes rolled around, trying to find some powder to relieve the depression in her heart.

"Mom." A trace of remorse flashed in Luna's eyes. She thought that in the end of the world, without laws, she could do whatever she wanted. However, retribution came from the moment she hurt others.

"Mom, I was wrong." Luna stared at Elsa and said seriously, "If what that man said is true, I will become his most loyal ear tool."

"You, what are you talking about? Did that person steal all the condiments?" Elsa couldn't help scratching her neck. She felt extremely itchy all over her body, and even her breathing was not smooth. Only if she stole her daughter's condiments could she feel comfortable.

Elsa turned her head and suddenly found a familiar jar. It turned out that Luna had hidden it.

Pretending that she didn't see it, Elsa smiled and said, "Forget it, Mom will go out and set up the trap again. The trap didn't trigger when that man approached just now."

After pretending to leave, Elsa suddenly transformed and used the speed of a level 3 infected person to quietly steal a bag of powder.

Hey, why is it raining?
Elsa was very curious, as it was still a long time before the rain ghost appeared.

Then, footsteps were heard, and two level 3 infected people wearing the uniforms of the Lianhai City Investigation Team stood in front of her and stepped on her face with their muddy boot soles.

How could it be such a coincidence!

Elsa found herself unable to move at all. Having just vented her anger, she had lost all her strength.
