184: Chapter 184 The Miraculous Method of Reversing Corruption

Looking at the potion in his hand, Nie Ning was filled with emotion.

Back then, he had only obtained a single Meditation Technique book, two books on sorcery, and a small number of wizarding books.

Compared to that, this treatment was worlds apart.

However, Nie Ning was already very satisfied.

Without those books, perhaps he would still be a knight right now.

Of course, aside from not being as cool as casting sorcery, there was nothing wrong with being a knight.

Nie Ning shook his head slightly, put away the second-rank potion, and looked at the other two books.

Judging by the handwriting, they were some sort of handwritten notes.

Opening the notes to check, Nie Ning became more and more engrossed, gradually becoming captivated by the content inside.

He finally understood why Dylan wanted to control the Corruptor.

It was because the owner of these notes actually wanted to try and transform a Corruptor into a normal, controllable living being!

One must know that Corruptors have no self-awareness; they are born from the fusion of the Power of Corruption with a soul or flesh, and all their actions follow specific, twisted instincts.

More importantly, the nature of the Power of Corruption is unchangeable; once eroded, it is very difficult to clear away.

In such situations, most people can only rely on overbearing Spiritual Power to endure it.

If they endure it, everyone is happy; if they can't, they either die or are transformed into a Corruptor.

"This guy is too greedy, isn't he? He actually dared to plot to control a Third-Ring Corruptor?"

Nie Ning frowned slightly, inwardly cursing that idiot Dylan.

Trying to run before learning to walk—besides, you need the capital for that. Did you really think you could do it with that trash in your spatial bag?

Opening the spatial bag to rummage through it, Nie Ning found a small iron ball from among the pile of trash materials.

According to the notes, this contained a special artificial spirit taken from an undead creature.

undead creatures were actually quite similar to Corrupted Creatures, but the undead were a type of lifeform born from the combination of special dark lands and obsessions.

In comparison, there was a large difference between the two.

Obsessions included all sorts of emotions, such as resentment, greed, sincere love, and so on.

Corrupted Creatures were similar, but the Power of Corruption would occupy a very high proportion, drastically twisting and magnifying various negative energies.

After the Power of Corruption appeared, most undead creatures turned into Corruptors.

The undead soul in the iron ball itself possessed high Corruption resistance. After research and refinement by the owner of the notes, it had become a special Corruption Spirit.

Currently, this Corruption Spirit was still a semi-finished product, but it was almost immune to the erosion of the Power of Corruption.

According to the note owner's line of thinking, a Corruptor was now needed, combined with a special Life Transmutation Array.

And this special Life Transmutation Array would reverse the life form of the Corruptor within a short period of time.

To put it simply, it would compress the Power of Corruption and the soul of corruption, then weaken and reverse the corrupted body into a semi-normal living body, and finally have the Corruption Spirit occupy the Corruptor's shell.

When the Power of Corruption and soul of corruption returned, relying on the Corruption Spirit's ultra-high mental resistance to merge with them, perhaps a special being existing between a normal life and a Corruptor could be born.

Nie Ning flipped to the last page and found that there was no data regarding the experiment.

"Will this actually work? At least finish the experiment."

Seeing this, Nie Ning couldn't help but complain.

But it looked like the owner of the notes probably didn't have the chance to experiment.

Nie Ning shook his head slightly, put down the notes in his hand, and picked up the other notebook.

In comparison, this notebook was like chicken scratch, clearly Dylan's own research notes.

Even a half-baked wizard like Nie Ning shook his head just looking at it.

In the end, Nie Ning could only use one word to describe Dylan's performance.

Brave!

To put it bluntly, he was a reckless youth!

Whether Dylan was desperate for money or too thirsty for power, this guy had actually taken it upon himself to rewrite the transmutation array, plotting to use that trash in his spatial bag to create a transcendent lifeform!

Furthermore, Dylan's brains weren't up to par, yet his ambition was quite large.

Even if he wanted to experiment, he should have found a weaker Corruptor. Wasn't he afraid that the transcendent lifeform he created would be too strong and turn on its master?

After all, this was only a theory and hadn't undergone any experimentation.

Any normal person would know to act within their capabilities. Don't you have even a little bit of self-awareness?

"Lunatic!"

Nie Ning rolled his eyes and directly burned Dylan's notes to avoid leaving a scourge behind for the world.

...

Nie Ning glanced at the dead Skadi, brushed off the dust, and stood up, his gaze shifting to the surrounding mist.

Without a Corruptor to control them, most of the Toxic Miasma had been worn away by the formation, and even the mental gray fog of the Human-Faced Balloons had become thin.

Nie Ning thought for a moment, went to Skadi's side, and got some blood from him to smear on his own clothes.

Then, he used battle qi to restrict his internal blood circulation, making his face look pale and weak.

After finishing all this, Nie Ning then staggered out of the Blazing Sun Zenith Array.

He then called over Lida and Krister, who were controlling the formation.

But before Nie Ning could scare the two of them, he was startled by them first.

At this time, Lida and Krister's faces were ashen, and their eyes had lost their usual luster, appearing in a pathological state of complete Spiritual Power exhaustion.

But it was normal when he thought about it. Even with the help of magic crystals, controlling the formation plate required Spiritual Power, which was indeed quite a pressure for two First-Ring Wizards.

Of course, if Nie Ning had come out earlier, they might not have looked like this.

The two of them were equally astonished to see Nie Ning covered in blood.

"My Lord, where are they?"

Lida forced himself to perk up, glanced behind Nie Ning, and asked hurriedly.

Nie Ning sighed, his face filled with frustration and bitterness.

"The Corruptor's strength was too great, and for some reason, Wizard Chebuman suddenly ambushed Wizard Skadi. Although I killed Chebuman, Wizard Skadi..."

The two of them couldn't help but widen their eyes upon hearing this.

After all, that was a peak Second Ring and a Third-Ring Wizard. They just died like that?

And Nie Ning's words were a bit strange. Did Skadi and Chebuman have an internal conflict?

The two of them didn't know what to say for a moment, feeling a mix of relief and helplessness in their hearts.

They were relieved to be alive, but helpless because the follow-up work would likely be very troublesome.

The death of a Third-Ring Wizard was a heavy blow to the entire Wilbes Republic.

If another such powerful Corruptor appeared, uh...

On second thought, it didn't seem to have much to do with them.

It wasn't a wizard from their side who died, so why should they worry? After all, they couldn't replace Skadi.

...

Next, Nie Ning had the two of them clean up the bodies.

Because The Federation would definitely send people to investigate, these bodies would need to be handed over to them for processing when the time came.

This would buy Nie Ning some time to break through, avoiding any unexpected situations.
