The ghost eye expanded to a colossal size but did not burst. Ye Zhongming watched nervously from the side.
Fortunately, the object eventually exploded, and a violent energy began to surge forth. Due to the Proof of the Array, this energy was almost entirely directed at the metalized earth yellow pill.
Ye Zhongming stared intently as the metal encasing the earth yellow pill began to slowly fade, as if something was corroding it.
This looks promising!
Instinctively, he clenched his fist.
Since the apocalypse began, Ye Zhongming had been accompanied by the earth yellow pill. The bond between them, one person and one dog, was extraordinary. Rather than simply having a master-battle beast relationship, they were more like comrades who had saved each other's lives countless times.
After the earth yellow pill fell into a negative state, Ye Zhongming tried everything to find a way to reverse this condition, even stockpiling a large amount of materials and investing significant manpower and resources.
Miya, Xia Lei, and others responsible for logistics had calculated that these materials could be used many times. This meant that once the earth yellow pill was cured, the remaining materials would go to waste.
But Ye Zhongming didn't care about that, and neither did the others.
As everyone knows, they were just one crucial material short and had to try other methods.
After experiencing the failure with the Soul Protection Frost, Ye Zhongming felt as if he was walking on thin ice. Even when success was imminent, he didn’t dare to relax even slightly.
The temperature in the room gradually warmed as the Ghost Eye Prism Flower exploded, but Ye Zhongming was completely indifferent; he was only focused on the earth yellow pill.
Big Yellow's metalized body slowly melted away, and the negative state was gradually dispelled by this energy, slowly revealing its original form.
Outside the room, everyone was anxiously waiting. The surging energy inside had made them nervous; now the sudden silence made the atmosphere even more tense.
"Woof... Ugh..."
A faint dog bark and whimpering came through the cracks in the door and window. Initially, everyone collectively held their breath, then, under Liu Zhenghong and Xia Lei's lead, they pushed open the door and rushed in.
In their view, Ye Zhongming was sitting on the ground, cradling the earth yellow pill. At this moment, Big Yellow's massive body was only partially wrapped; the rest lay on the ground. Everyone was startled at first but then saw Big Yellow's tail stand up and wag at them.
Although it only wagged twice before dropping again, this action still sparked a cheer. News of the earth yellow pill's recovery quickly spread through Cloud Summit Villa and then throughout Ying City. The ensuing cheers sent shivers down the spines of all the mutated creatures in Ying City, leaving them bewildered as to what had driven these humans to such madness.
The people from the Ogre Chain's storage department were equally baffled, staring blankly at the surrounding Cloud Summit People, looking utterly confused.
Only Zhenghua had some idea; after all, he knew that Cloud Summit had just removed the Ghost Eye Prism Flower, and everything happening now should relate to that mutated plant.
Inside the room, Liu Zhenghong had taken Ye Zhongming's place, personally conducting a thorough examination of the earth yellow pill with two assistants. After quite some time, he finally stopped.
Facing Ye Zhongming and the others with concern, Liu Zhenghong patted the currently dull golden fur of the earth yellow pill and said, "Due to being metalized for too long, Big Yellow's body is very weak, and as you can see, its evolutionary level has dropped significantly."
Everyone fell silent. Just a moment ago, they had noticed that the current earth yellow pill was only at a level five evolutionary stage, which clearly indicated that the effects of the revenge storm were still present.
"All the organs in the body should be fine, meaning there is no life-threatening danger. As for how long it will take to recover and how much of its own ability is left, I can't say for sure."
