Chapter 231 Purifying God-melting Blood
"He actually succeeded!" Daniel exclaimed in surprise as he watched Carlyle fly away, taking a moment before he could find his words.
"Professor Daniel, do you know what happened?"
Xu Yi looked to Daniel, whose reaction suggested that he knew the reason Carlyle had become "Ryan."
"We had some of Ryan's flesh preserved, and after the incident with the Evil Deity, Barton had me extract Ryan's blood from it to create a syringe that could fuse," Daniel explained.
Daniel sighed, "The success rate of the syringe fusion is less than one in a thousand. For a common person, an injection pretty much means a one-way ticket to death. I have no idea how Carlyle did it?"
Xu Yi thought of the unicorn. Carlyle had been blessed by a unicorn when he was little. Could it be related to this?
"I've studied Carlyle's blood before, and it's just the blood of a common person!" Daniel said with a puzzled look on his face.
Xu Yi was slightly taken aback, then suddenly thought of something else.
Back at Carlyle's aunt's house, when Carlyle was close to Ryan's flesh, dark tendrils appeared on it.
He had assumed those tentacles came from the Evil Deity, appearing due to a desire for Carlyle's blood. Now, according to what Daniel said, Carlyle's blood seemed quite ordinary.
Could the appearance of those dark tendrils have been due to Ryan's persistent will?
"Did you just say, as long as you can purify the God-melting Blood, you could kill Noavies?"
Daniel suddenly turned his head, staring intently at Xu Yi, in desperate need of affirmation.
"I can't say for sure, but I have about a sixty to seventy percent confidence," Xu Yi said, trusting in his blood abilities, but still not making any overpromises.
"That's enough! Let's go to Carlyle, and I will teach her how to absorb the Evil Deity's corrupting factors!" Daniel said, invigorated.
So long as they could kill Noavies, it did not matter if there was a sixty to seventy percent chance or even a one percent chance; he would try it.
"No need," Xu Yi shook his head, looking up towards the skyline, "They're here!"
Noavies climbed atop a high-rise, leaping from building to building.
Although it could not fly, its sturdy body easily negated the force of falling. Black water spouts formed around its body, the swirling causing a powerful suction.
Wherever Noavies went, it was like the Grim Reaper passing through, and not even those who hid inside buildings could escape; their blood was drawn out from their bodies.
Dense threads of blood flew up from below, pouring into Noavies' body.
Since breaking out of its cocoon, Noavies constantly fought and sustained injuries. It now needed to absorb blood to heal its wounds.
A dark shadow chased after it; it was Carlyle.
Carlyle fluttered her black wings behind her, her fingernails growing sharp and menacingly.
She lunged at Noavies, her nails slicing like knives.
Xu Yi and Daniel both had a clear understanding of how firm Noavies' body was, yet the sharp nails actually tore through its flesh, leaving it riddled with bloody gashes.
Xu Yi noticed something even more subtle; Carlyle's hands were covered in a pale red flame. The red was so faint, almost transparent, and had it not been for his Eyes of Obscurity, he probably wouldn't have noticed it.
Those flames appeared to be quite effective against the Evil Deity.
Xu Yi suddenly remembered, the Evil Deity seemed to have been thwarted by Ryan before.
Ryan self-immolated, forcing the Evil Deity into dormancy—was it the same semi-transparent flame as the one right now?
With each of Carlyle's strikes, she danced on the edge of the Grim Reaper's scythe.
With her speed as fast as lightning, and the ability to fly, she repeatedly dodged Noavies' "captures."
The moment she would be caught by Noavies, the battle would come to an end.
The pale red flames, although they restrained the Evil Deity, were limited to merely causing harm; to kill Nuoyawesi, the intensity of these flames was far from sufficient.
"Even though the fusion with the Blood Potion was successful, obtaining power close to Ryan's will still require a long period of blood replacement," Daniel was clear about the situation.

A huge azure light prison suddenly rose from the ground, trapping Nuoyawesi.
The special group could no longer hold back and intervened; if the Evil Deity were allowed to continue, an unknowable number of people in this city would perish.
They silently inscribed an Array, and as soon as Nuoyawesi entered the Array's range, they immediately activated it.
A large group of exorcists emerged from hidden corners, their various methods rushing towards the Evil Deity like a storm of wind and rain.
"Carlyle!" Xu Yi's eyes lit up and seizing the opportunity, he called out loudly.
He had not dared to make a sound just a moment ago, fearing that it would distract Carlyle and give Nuoyawesi a chance to catch them in a perilous situation.
Now that the special group had intervened and Carlyle was in the observation phase, he dared to speak out.
Carlyle, hearing the familiar voice, turned her head sharply and with the powerful vision of the Blood Clan, spotted Xu Yi inside the house.
"Xu Yi!" Carlyle came rushing down, smashing through the house's window to lunge toward Xu Yi, unable to hide her excitement.
Xu Yi felt like he had caught a cannonball; he patted Carlyle's head, knowing that now was not the time for comfort and took a step back.
He looked into her eyes, "Carlyle, I need your help!"
Carlyle also realized the gravity of the situation and nodded solemnly.
Daniel began explaining that the principle of extracting the Evil Deity's corrupting factors was not complicated, and since this was originally Ryan's ability, Carlyle, who had fused with Ryan's blood, understood it quickly.
"Will extracting the Evil Deity's corrupting factors harm Carlyle's body?" Xu Yi asked with concern.
"There will certainly be damage, but it won't be fatal; she's very likely to become seriously ill," Daniel did not conceal the truth.
Xu Yi wanted to ask more, but Carlyle stopped him.
"It's okay, let's get started!" Carlyle looked at Xu Yi, her gaze resolute.
Xu Yi hesitated for two seconds before passing the God-melting Blood over.
Carlyle lightly touched the test tube with her fingertip, drawing the God-melting Blood to stick onto her sharp nails; she then pierced her own chest with her fingernail and injected the blood into her heart.
Her body surged with blood qi, her complexion turning extremely pale.
A moment later, she withdrew her hand from her chest, allowing the God-melting Blood on her nail to flow back into the test tube.
Xu Yi intently watched the God-melting Blood in the test tube, the platinum blood becoming even more brilliant, and at the same time, the ability to sense blood activated.
[God-melting Blood (Refined), "Quality: S", "Fusion Success Rate: 31%", "Promotion Potential: Red Epic—??"]
"I'm sorry, this is the best I can do!" Carlyle said weakly, sitting on the sofa, her voice hoarse.
Xu Yi shook his head, "You've already done very well."
Only a 31% increase in the fusion success rate was actually within Xu Yi's expectations.
The corrupting factors of the Evil Deity were inherently difficult to remove, and Carlyle was not Ryan, after all; the gap in their strengths was significant.
Xu Yi was aware that reaching this level was already the limit.
"Let's hope for success!" Xu Yi prayed silently.
To speed up the effect, he inserted the injection into his own heart and without hesitation, emptied it.
A familiar burning sensation spread, and Xu Yi collapsed to the ground in agony.
