75 An Odd Way To Heal, Tenth Dao Secured (1/2)

Jam flew back to the cave he had created and felt a headache coming as he stared at Cynthia. While he had dealt with Xie Ming, Xinyi, and Danger Noodle, Cynthia had been slowly transforming from a humanoid Roc back to a regular human. Now, she was back to normal, only… naked. She didn't have Tier 5 Armor which could expand and shrink, and at the time of transforming in to a Stellar Roc she wasn't in her right mind to put away her armor, so it had been torn to shred.

But that wasn't important right now! Was was important, however, was the fact that Cynthia was currently struggling for dear life; it was no time to care about her level of exposure! Cynthia's skin was for all intents and purposes scalding red, and her blood vessels were under heavy pressure. Her beast bloodline was still acting up even though her circulatory system had taken such a heavy blow.

Blood? Demonic Beast Blood? Mythical Demonic Beast Blood? How was Jam suppose to fix this? There wasn't exactly a pill or talisman that he knew of for this purpose. Would a Cooling Yin Pill work? Probably not, it wasn't like Cynthia was conscious, and even if she were, she wouldn't expunge her own bloodline.

Jam thought through his options, but nothing he thought of felt like it could accomplish much. Cynthia's current state came as a result of activating her blood. There was nothing inherently wrong with her blood, just that her body wasn't strong enough to deal with its side effects. Strengthening her body would be impossible for Jam as she was already a Saint Grandmaster. Furthermore, her unconsciousness was a bit problem as she couldn't actively make herself stronger.

”Mhmm... ” seconds turned to minutes and Jam just stood there, getting increasingly frustrated as he couldn't think of a solution.

Finally, Tzatziki had enough! That or it also took this long for him to come up with a solution… Tzatziki sent Jam a transmission ”You know… since her problem is her blood being activated, can't you just use a Blood Dao superpower to deal with it?”

”Blood Dao superpower?” Jam thought about it and decided to give it a try. He inched closer to Cynthia and tried to use a Superpower called Sub Doping. Like the name suggested, the superpower replaced blood, usually the user's, with new and”better” blood; blood infused with Blood Dao insights.

Jam put his hands on Cynthia's arm and used the superpower. The area where he used Sub Doping instantly whiten back to its original skin color, but that only lasted the duration that Jam held his hands on her body. No matter what Jam did, the effects of Sub Doping would not spread out across her body.

It also didn't help that Jam wasn't an expert in this rather esoteric Dao. If he had a greater foundation for his Divinity to work with, perhaps the results would not be so bleak… In any case, Cynthia was getting worse as time dragged on, so extreme measures needed to be taken!

Jam took off all his clothes and hugged Cynthia! His ridiculous and sudden actions surprised Tzatziki into thinking he had gone insane. But then again it would make sense if Jam lost himself to lust at this time. He was after all with an peerless beauty… No one was near them… She was unconscious… Yeah right! Jam wasn't depraved! At least the meaning behind his actions suggested that was the case.

He might have ”gotten naked” and tackle-hugged another naked and defensive young lady, but it was for her own good! Sub Doping — at its current level, with no level of Blood Dao Cultivation supporting it — needed direct contact to work, so logically, the best way to spread its effects was to increase the surface area that made contact.

In this awkward state, Jam held Cynthia while simultaneously focusing on the Sub Doping superpower. Though it was ridiculously inefficient, Jam was slowly gaining Blood Dao insights, through the constant use of this superpower.

Naturally, even though Jam had taken off his clothes and hugged Cynthia, spreading out the area making contact as best as he could, he couldn't possibly touch every inch of Cynthia, and even though the Sub Doping was working, Cynthia's symptoms were getting worse. Her blood vessels were getting increasingly weaker, and Jam's ability to replace blood was pointless as the blood left untouched was agitating the new blood…

This was becoming a battle of territory within Cynthia's body, and eventually, she couldn't help but get a reaction. A hacking cough escaped Cynthia's mouth along with a splatter of blood. Jam ignored what would have been a worrying sign as he was approaching a profound truth and could not bother with the situation outside of Cynthia's body.

He started to shine with a crimson glow, and after the light dimmed down, through yet another heaven defying act Jam had acquired Dao Contact for the tenth time. This time he didn't even have a manual or technique for reference; directly gaining his understanding through the use of Blood by himself.

While the act might not mean much to a God in the Divine Plane or even an Immortal in the Immortal Plane. They could do the same if they wanted to, with their higher understanding of the Dao, they could easily reach the first couple levels of Dao Cultivation in other Daos. However, Jam wasn't a god, he wasn't even an Saint… as a Rebirth Stage cultivator, this might be one of the more absurd things he's accomplish….

Dao Contact with the Blood Dao… it wasn't anything special to Jam right now aside from the fact that he could extend the range that the superpower worked. He covered Cynthia completely in its effects and start separating from her… at least that was the plan…

It seems that reaching Dao Contact improved the effects of Sub Doping much more than Jam anticipated, and gave rise to waking a portion of Cynthia's consciousness. She was still halfway out, and could barely even use her senses. Her judgement was all but gone, and even her soul worked to use her memories to make up a false reality.

Jam was caught between a rock and a hard place, literally. Cynthia, immediately after ”waking up,” turned and grabbed at Jam. It seems she was living out a dream, as she yawned and called out ”No~ don't leave the bed~” She turned around and snared Jam into a full frontal hug! Before he had been a gentlemen about the situation and hugged her from behind. He had done all he could to not have her wake up to this scene, only for her to create it on her own volition.

Wait. The Bed? They were on the cold hard floor of the cave. Furthermore, this was the cave that Jam had repeatedly blasted from his failed attempts at the Tier 5 Cooling Yin Pill; it was anything but a comfy bed.
