In the Eight Monster House.
Xu Yi looked at the scene before him, his complexion extrely ugly, his eyebrows knitted into a "川" character.
Lisa lay on the ground, her body convulsing continuously; Maria's seven orifices were bleeding, her breathing weak; Carlyle was even worse off, his skin cracked all over, like a clay figure exposed to intense sun.
They had just injected the Poseidon Potion and, in just half a minute, they had turned into this ghastly state.
Dissection images floated before Xu Yi's eyes.
The dissection images ca from the Nest of the Evil God, which he had ingested early in the morning to observe the changes within their bodies.
Golden light flickered in Lisa's body, a power deriving from Holy Blood.
Maria and Ailan's bodies were intertwined with black and white mist, the power of Twin Souls.
Within Carlyle, a balanced ring ford by red and black liquids, was the "Ryan's Power," a fusion of werewolf and vampire strengths.
The Poseidon Potion was unlocking the "shackles" within their bodies.
At first, everything went smoothly, but for so reason, as soon as the Poseidon Potion reached into their genetics to begin the genetic-level transformation, the situation took a nosedive.
Could the Poseidon Potion be fake?
This thought flashed through Xu Yi's mind.
But that didn't make sense either. Would the Atlanteans go to such lengths to preserve the Poseidon Potion only to deceive others?
This was simply illogical.
Xu Yi saw the three of them growing weaker and weaker and did not think of stepping forward to save them.
He glanced down at his watch; the ti was almost up.
Platinum flas surged from his eye sockets, his internal organs incinerated to nothingness as he decisively chose self-immolation.
Ti rewound to five minutes earlier.
Xu Yi stood in the middle of the skylight, holding the Philosopher's Stone, preparing to pour it into the tube containing the Poseidon Potion.
This was his plan from early on, as the Resurrection Coin was not just an extra life; it was also a chance to try and err.
That's why he dared to go all-in with the Philosopher's Stone, injecting the potion into Lisa and the others without hesitation.
"Should I continue to experint?"
This was the problem that Xu Yi would have to face next.
Logically, he had five resurrection opportunities per day, and to be safe, he needed to keep at least two of them in reserve.
That ant he could attempt it two more tis.
But was it worth it? After all, each Resurrection Coin was extrely precious.
Xu Yi poured the Philosopher's Stone into the tube with the Poseidon Potion.
He had already thought of the answer to this question while in the Resurrection Space.
The Poseidon Potion was too precious. According to ancient tos, Atlanteans who injected the Poseidon Potion saw significant enhancent in their physical condition and possessed the "Armor of Poseidon."
"Armor of Poseidon" was not actual armor but referred to the increased physical strength after enhancent, impervious to swords and immune to malign influences, as if wearing a mythological armor.
Moreover, the Armor of Poseidon granted the ability to breathe deep underwater.
"If the records don't lie, the effect of a single Poseidon Potion should at least be comparable to a Red Common entry!"
Red Entries, even Common ones, were extrely precious.
Even now, Xu Yi struggled to acquire entries of the Red Level.
It wasn't because of his strength, but because it was difficult to encounter targets from which to absorb "Red Entries."
The Red Level entries on him were either from an Evil God or from sothing as bizarrely extre as an Evil Deity, exceedingly rare.
For Xu Yi, who possessed a Body of Demigod, the effect of the Poseidon Potion was weak, but for Lisa and the others, it was a different story.
If it were a Red Epic entry from the Combat System, their strength should be not much different from that of titled exorcists.
With the enhancent from the Poseidon Potion, coupled with the boost from the Seven Deadly Sins of Alchemical Weapons, along with their own inherent abilities
taking everything into account, their strength could already be considered to have one foot in the realm of titled exorcists.
And how many titled exorcists were there in the world?
If the plan succeeded, a powerful force would rapidly coalesce around Xu Yi.
Xu Yi used the Philosopher's Stone to replicate the Poseidon Potion once again, but he didn't imdiately let the three of them inject it; instead, he started to concoct the potion.
The Nest of the Evil God could not only observe changes in the human body but also analyze the components of the Poseidon Potion.
Just now, during his review in the Resurrection Space, he had already noticed a certain "sign."
Perhaps it wasn't that there was a problem with the Poseidon Potion, but that the "person" was the issue!
The Poseidon Potion was a potion that acted at the genetic level. It was formulated, of course, for Atlanteans.
Could it be that the genes of the Atlanteans and those of modern humans are different?
The more Xu Yi thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.
[You have sacrificed "Wings of Blood" and gained Mystical inspiration!]
Wings of Blood, a green Epic Entry from the Vampire Progenitor Dracula.
This Entry had not found the right ti for use, but now the ti had co.
Ti was too pressing. If he were to create a "Genetic Harmonizing Elixir" in the normal way, it would be impossible, so he had to choose to cheat.
Inspiration surged in like a flood. If the inspiration from burning a white Entry before was like a small stream,
then the current inspiration was like a wide and mighty river.
The inspiration was endless, and Xu Yi quickly concocted the potion.
Ever since the "poisoning incident" with the Sun Golden Scripture, he always had a large number of semifinished potions on hand, just in case.
In just one short minute, he had concocted the "Genetic Harmonizing Elixir."
"Co! First, inject the Poseidon Potion, and then this harmonizing potion."
Xu Yi had the three won inject the potions, racing against the clock.
After the two potions were injected one after the other, Xu Yi's face once again turned ugly.
Because it had failed again!
"As expected, it was too rushed! To concoct the appropriate potion in such a short amount of ti, it would take a miracle."
Xu Yi sighed and then resolutely used the second Resurrection Coin of the day.
Within the Resurrection Space, he reviewed the entire process. He was certain now; it was indeed a matter of genetic differences.
The Poseidon Potion was formulated for Atlanteans. Modern humans, due to subtle genetic differences, had a "rejection reaction."
"It seems I can only give up."
Xu Yi gradually cald down. Although trying again would increase the success rate, it would only go from 1% to 10%.
The probability was too small, and it was not worth wasting a Resurrection Coin.
But he hadn't gained nothing; from the analysis of the Nest of the Evil God, he had gotten many inspirations, and perhaps he could attempt to make a "Lesser Poseidon Potion."
Golden light enveloped Xu Yi's eyes, and he once again appeared in the room with the skylight.
This ti, because of concocting the potion, ti had moved a bit further back, and he was about to pour the Philosopher's Stone into the test tube when he abruptly stopped.
"Whew! The timing was too close to the limit this ti; if I had been two seconds later, I probably would've had to do it all over again."
Xu Yi praised himself as a "Master of Ti Managent."
He prepared to put away the Philosopher's Stone, glanced at the system panel out of habit, and then froze, staring intently at the system's Entry library.
The Wings of Blood Entry lay quietly inside!
Wasn't this Entry sacrificed and transford into Mystical inspiration? Why did it still appear in the Entry library?
He had always assud that after an Entry was burned, it would disappear; after all, ti had been rewound, but the Mystical inspiration obtained would always stay in the brain.
Could it be a bug in the system?
Xu Yi stared intensely at the system panel, feeling a mix of elation and apprehension, like finding a winning lottery ticket on the side of the road, yet suspecting it to be fake.
The system did not respond, nor did any bug correction ssage appear.
Xu Yi's eyes shone like two high-wattage bulbs!
He suddenly understood that this was not a bug, but an inherent feature of the system.
His body trembled slightly from the excitent. Although it might seem like only a small bug, the potential benefits it could bring were unimaginable.
Xu Yi resolutely decided to pour the Philosopher's Stone into the Poseidon Potion.
He had a bold idea!
