Chapter 1053 - 459:

Feeling the familiar presence, Blue Boy was instantly overjoyed, throwing himself onto Chu Xiu’s shoulder, chirping a rapid series of sounds, like a child complaining to his parents.

"Alright, this is all your doing."

Chu Xiu soothed him with two strokes, then flicked his finger, and the wall that had just been cut returned to its original place perfectly embedded in the tower. If one didn’t look closely, they wouldn’t see the cut marks.

Then Chu Xiu completely concealed his presence again, preparing to leave with Blue Boy.

He knew the other party would definitely report to the higher-ups immediately. Although Chu Xiu wasn’t afraid, he was too lazy to cause trouble. The top of the tower still had a few presences that even he felt wary of.

But just as he was about to leave, Blue Boy suddenly grabbed him, shouting anxiously.

Although Blue Boy couldn’t speak, with Chu Xiu’s Divine Sense, he could clearly understand what he wanted to convey.

"You want me to save that girl?"

Blue Boy nodded frantically, his chirping turning quieter but sharper, as if pleading softly.

"You don’t usually pay much attention to her, but it’s evident you care a lot."

Chu Xiu looked up at the top of the tower where a figure was floating outside, quietly watching him. Their eyes met, and Chu Xiu smiled, "Well, I don’t want you to bear any shadows at such a young age."

Once he spoke, Blue Boy joyously started dancing, but in the next moment he quietly held onto Chu Xiu again, as Chu Xiu’s figure transformed into an afterimage, dropping a thousand meters!

"Boom!"

With a light touch, the entire catalytic chamber’s outer wall shattered into remnants, Chu Xiu’s body floated in, and a giant culture tank appeared before him.

Red Swan, unconscious, was suspended in the tank, dozens of thick pipes connected to her body, seemingly delivering some kind of liquid into her. Under the liquid’s effect, her skin turned red, like it was scalded by high-temperature steam.

Her eyes shut tight, a pained expression etched on her face, her skin occasionally forming bumps that disappeared, resembling bubbles on boiling broth. Chu Xiu could feel Red Swan’s presence drastically strengthening, and at the same time, her body undergoing irreversible transformation.

Blue Boy pounced on the tank, eagerly peering inside while patting the tank. Chu Xiu made a slashing motion, and in an instant, the high-strength glass exterior collapsed with a bang.

Blue Boy wanted to pull Red Swan out, but as soon as he touched her, he cried out, withdrawing his hand. Red Swan’s body temperature had already surpassed one hundred degrees Celsius! If it weren’t for various special medications, her organs and brain would have melted long ago!

"Is this what catalyst is?" Chu Xiu frowned slightly, "It’s indeed a crude method."

With his Divine Sense scanning, he quickly analyzed the catalyst’s principle, similar to the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin practice for fitness in his past life—using various special drugs to push the body into high metabolism and growth. Unlike mere hormone stimulation, this process is accelerated with some special compound that grants the body cancer-like endless division abilities.

In this state, within days, one could elevate their tier by one or two levels, but the cost would be transforming into an inhuman monster.

The drugs had already entered the body, but with Chu Xiu’s skills, removing the side effects was quite simple.

But before he could act, Blue Boy suddenly pointed, and a golden light surged into Red Swan’s body. In the next moment, she abruptly opened her eyes! Her pupils gleamed like burning golden flames!

Chu Xiu felt a kind of pressure; considering Red Swan’s tier, that pressure was comparable to the Burning Blood Golden Gaze at the same tier.

Moreover, as Chu Xiu scanned, a force within her body quickly surged, suppressing all foreign substances, and like a ravenous Fierce Beast, continually devoured those energies!

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

The catalytic chamber rang with sharp alarms, and meanwhile, in the control room on another level, monitoring personnel also detected anomalies.

[Warning, insufficient catalytic liquid supply!]

"What’s going on?"

Someone approached and asked.

The person in charge of monitoring was somewhat surprised, "Culture Tank 368 is low on catalyst liquid; could we be witnessing the legendary bloodline purification?"

"Good news," another person said, "Report to the Administrator, then halt all tanks on the same level, and redirect all catalyst liquid to Tank 368."

"An A-level bloodline is worth a hundred B-levels. If we can purify an A-level, we’re gold."

"Yes!"

...

The monitoring room’s reactions fell within Chu Xiu’s Divine Sense control. He watched as Red Swan, though her eyes were open, had yet to regain consciousness, and her increasingly frenzied internal power with more catalyst liquid injected, scratching his head in trouble. Finally, he sighed lightly, "Forget it, let’s do a good deed until the end."

Then, he extended his finger and thousands of threads of Spiritual Power, like the most precise scalpel, cut open Red Swan’s skin, merging into her body. Under those Spiritual Powers’ grooming, that chaotic and vast power suddenly became extremely docile, just like a rabbit before an Ancient Fierce Beast, even the Holy Blood power activated by Blue Boy was no exception!

Red Swan’s facial muscles twitched, her golden pupils gradually focused, and in her haze, she heard a voice: "Don’t overthink it, focus on operating your ’Holy Blood Secret Scripture.’"
