The Counterattack and the Overwhelming, One-Sided Rout

Both of Chi An's Eye of Madness have been found.

However, the matter is not over yet.

The whereabouts of a clump of Eye of Madness Cells remain unknown.

Rc Cells increased their invasion speed, Chi An's body.

They then began a massive search for the location of the last cluster of cells.

Considering that the organization had only been inside Chi An, it might not have fully taken root in one place within his body yet.

To improve efficiency, Shisui divided the target's body into different regions and allocated varying numbers of Rc Cells according to the size of each region.

In this way, each area has enough Rc Cells to conduct a thorough search, leaving no detail unchecked.

Doing this will greatly increase the probability of finding it.

Furthermore, it minimized the possibility that the clump of cells could roam freely within the target body.

Shisui thought to himself, if he still couldn't find it this time, he didn't need to be too anxious.

Rc Cells have a sufficiently strong ability to divide.

Once the Rc Cells begin to proliferate in his body and there are enough of them, the tissue will have nowhere to escape.

But with such a massive intrusion, could the parties involved really remain completely unresponsive?

Before Shisui could even find the cluster of cells, Chi An's counterattack began.

Originally, after the Undying Cells and the Eye of Madness slowly began to merge, they gradually calmed down.

But now, they've suddenly become restless again.

The Rc Cells hidden Chi An the body were actively attacked.

In some body parts where the number of Rc Cells is relatively small, they may even be surrounded and blocked by a large number of Undying Cells.

Shisui was unclear; it was Chi An's soul that had briefly regained consciousness due to the will to survive.

Or was it just an instinctive reaction after sensing danger?

The cells of the two types of the Heaven-Controlling Realm creatures turned their guns around and began targeting the invading Rc Cells.

The numerous eyes that had appeared on Chi An's body also locked onto Shisui at the same time.

Blood-red, murky pupils met the Kakugan, and delirious babbling immediately filled Shisui's mind.

At the same time, Chi An's energy-depleted body began to slowly absorb Psychic Energy from the outside air.

Although it's a drop in the ocean, there's no doubt that his health is quietly improving.

Shisui immediately realized this.

He certainly wouldn't let Chi An recover Chi An.

The rustling, delirious sounds were dispelled by the even more ferocious Psychic Energy within Shisui's body.

Rc Cells are becoming active, completely shedding their feigned gentle appearance.

In an instant, the Heaven-Controlling Realm Cell Alliance, which had been in a very favorable situation, collapsed once again.

The situation reversed, and the Rc Cells climbed up and bit into enemies from all sides.

Completely ignoring enemy attacks, it devours lone cells on the edge, accelerating its proliferation.

All we can say is that the Heaven-Controlling Realm is the Heaven-Controlling Realm, and the isolated Heaven-Controlling Realm cells are isolated Heaven-Controlling Realm cells.

As a part of the body tissue parasitizing Earth Realm Awakened, the power that the Undying Cells and the Eye of Madness can currently wield is determined by the host.

So, let alone killing Rc Cells, it might not even be possible to expel them.

Half a minute later, the number of Rc Cells quadrupled.

The brief counterattack failed, and a one-sided massacre began.

"How is it? Still can't pinpoint Chi An's location?"

Inside the Beastfolk's underground Laboratory, a group of researchers were working tirelessly.

Losing a target is a very serious matter; there's a good chance some important data might emerge during this period when monitoring is unavailable.

The researchers felt incredibly heartbroken just thinking about the potential losses.

They frantically used various instruments to search remotely for the missing experimental subjects.

However, despite their best efforts, they were still unable to break through the Spatial Lockdown set up by the Feather Powder.

It's like someone suddenly cutting the network cable of a connected device.

No matter how skilled the repair personnel are, or how advanced the equipment itself is, it cannot change the fact that the signal cannot be connected.

There is only one solution.

Send someone to the target location to confirm, and then see if the signal can be restored.

"The higher-ups have already assigned the action team a mission: they will dispatch troops to the vicinity of Chi An to assess the situation!"

The researcher, who was waiting for instructions from his superiors, announced this rare piece of good news.

Like a ray of dawn, it illuminated the gloom in everyone's hearts.

Everyone in the Laboratory breathed a sigh of relief.

"Very good."

One of the researchers, who had been repeatedly trying to reconnect the signal, felt somewhat relieved.

"With the action team involved, we should receive a signal soon."

As it turned out, they relaxed too soon.

The task force did indeed rush to the last known location of the Laboratory before it lost signal.

However, the area is currently shrouded in thick fog.

They walked back and forth in the fog, but after walking for a long time, they still couldn't see the end.

The dispatched team then realized they were trapped.

"Captain," a team member stepped forward and reported quietly, "The communicator has no signal."

The captain's face turned somewhat grim.

The good news is, at least they didn't go to the wrong place.

The bad news is, they're trapped too.

Deep within the dense fog, Shisui glanced up during a break from controlling the Rc Cells to conquer the pool.

His calm eyes were filled with disdain for those who overestimated themselves.

They had clearly seen the fog before entering, and also sensed a hint of Shisui power deliberately emanating from Zi Sui.

But they did not take this seriously.

Those who have always run rampant in the Beastfolk territory have long been corrupted by arrogance.

All I wanted was a quick victory and to get back to rest as soon as possible.

So they went straight into the fog.

In response, Shisui expressed respect for these people's eagerness to die and planned to eliminate them directly.

The mist entered the bodies of the action team members through their respiratory tracts, eyelids, and minor wounds.

Before long, Rc Cells accumulated to a certain threshold in their bodies.

In the next instant, Rc Cells inside and outside the body attack simultaneously.

Teammates with slightly lower skill levels died on the spot.

The others weren't much better off.

Blood slowly flowed from their faces, proving that their bodies were also riddled with wounds.

They will have no other fate but death.

The captain even tried to struggle and send word of what was happening.

But even after he breathed his last, the communicator in his hand remained unresponsive.

Before Shisui even appeared before them, all of them were already dead.

Radiant Feathers flew out of the mist, causing Spatial Energy fluctuations, and the corpses on the ground instantly turned into Flesh Crystals.

These people are of average talent; even if their average cultivation level is only at the Seventh Realm of the Earth Realm, their aura is rather bland.

Shisui had no desire to eat them.

However, after Chi An in front of him took out the Eye of Madness and most of the Undying Cells, his original scent became clear.
