《Behold the Bacterium》Chapter 2 - The former heavenly genius Fion Yu
Advertisement
Fion Yu , the third young master of Yu clan was a heavenly genius since birth. In this world where Cultivation is done through bacteria, one’s talent depends solely on the amount and type of bacteria , present in the body upon birth . Normally , an average human hosts at least ten thousand bacteria present in the body.The greater the amount of bacteria present,the greater the talent and cultivation speed will be much higher .
Like the volume , what type of bacteria present will also play an equal role in determining the talent and cultivation. All the Bacteria in the world can be grouped together and classified into 5 Familia and is further categorised into xing , hermit and relic classes.
The most common familia “ Mitotic earth ” accounts for four fifth’s of all the type of bacteria present in humans,beasts, plants etc.These familia Bacterias have the lowest rate of Qi absorption and synthesis and is the lowest ranked among all other familia .Furthermore, people having these types of bacteria will be having their cultivation limited to second stage.
Some people may have abundant bacteria , even numbering millions but they will only have Mitotic earth familia types abide in them and vice versa.These people will be called as heaven forsaken child due to the above reasons. Only people who have abundant of bacteria belonging to ‘Cilium Plasma’ family and above are the truly favoured child of heavens and will be hailed as genius by their respective clans and kingdoms. These people will be the sole focus of the clan and they will spend huge amount of resources to nurture them into a powerful expert.
Fion Yu was one such child of heaven who was born with a myriad of bacteria nearing 5 million belonging to relic class , cilium Plasma Familia. With this blend , he can easily cultivate to peak of ‘Bacterial Plasmic ‘ stage which is the third cultivation stage. When his clan found out his constitution , the whole clan celebrated on that day and the Artic city was never ever lively as that day since thousand years.
“Greetings , Young Master fion ” the guard named quang greeted with a kind smile at the approaching youth.
When fion saw the guard , he forced a smile as he nodded and continued to walk along the streets of Artic City. The guard sighed as he saw the teen walked away.Each time he sees the young master , myriad of complex feelings will crop up in him.
It was because of Fion that he was recruited as a guard even though he was at mid of plaudit stage at that time. Not only that, Fion will always give his left over cultivation resources to Quang , which empowered him to reach late stage of the realm.

He was even well known among all the guards and maids working in the Yu clan because of Fion .Even the news about the younglings expedition was told to him by one of Fion’s maid . Things started going down hill when Fion lost his myriad pool in an accident during his breakthrough in cultivation. Many even suspect if it was really a mishap and each of them have their own theories as to why Fion lost his bacterial pool.
In fact , when one search for information regarding this incident in Yu Province , they will come to hear about at least 20 hypothesis. But no one really know what happened during the breakthrough other than some high ranking members of the Yu Clan and the person himself.
Fion after leaving the home of Yu Clan started walking towards the outskirts of the city . He walked for at least 50 minutes before reaching the border where the wilderness starts.In normal situations , no one will go alone into the wilderness as it is extremely dangerous and one can lose life at any moment of their stay. Apart from that , there is always a good chance that one can encounter a vile class beast at any time.Only some high cultivation experts will wander alone for their training.
Fion took a single glance at the guards guarding the border before quickly disappearing into the forest. If this happened 1 year back , a huge commotion would broke out since he was still the favoured young master of the clan at that time. But now, the guards won’t even try to stop him from entering much less notifying the main clan about it , unless he really didn’t return for several days.
While fion continued to stroll into the forest , he stopped at the place upon seeing a small cliff. This is the place where he usually trains his Martial arts.
“Something definitely changed about this place ” Fion thought when he saw the small cliff. After a minute of observation , he didn’t find any abnormalities ,immediately he took off his robe and starts exercising the cultivation method provided by the clan.
He then began to recognise the bacteria present in his body and started controlling it to absorb the Qi from the atmosphere. He started breaking down the Qi according to the cultivation method. After an hour of rigorous training , he finally stopped. Pain soared through every part of his body as he strived to distribute the small amount of Yuan Qi among the cells of his body. Several hours passed as he repeated this cultivation process over again.

“ Aaah , i feel very spirited after this cultivation session , now let me test my progress ” Fion mumbled and then proceeded to walk towards a tree. He delivered a powerful blow to the body of the tree which forms a small opening at the centre.
“arghhh , i didn’t improve one bit even after several months of my cultivation , if only i had my old bacterial pool …. ” extreme fury arose from him as he clenched his hands. He cursed everyone in the clan including his father for their infringement.Others may not know what truly happened but being the person who was the victim , he naturally knows about the injustice brought to him by the clan.
For Fion , everything went alright until he tried to breakthrough to the third realm ‘Bacterial plasmic stage’ from the Mitogene stage (second realm). He somehow failed in the breakthrough and got his bacterial pool impaired. The moment he got his pool messed up , he lost his cultivation and went down straight to the early phase of first realm plaudit stage. This delivers a huge blow to every members of the clan as their hopes shattered.
Eventually the clan leaders and patriarch decided to do bacterial transfusion with the help of an expert. Transfusion is the process which involves relegation of bacteria present in one’s body to another person. It has extremely low changes of success since the host bacteria has to accept the incoming foreign bacteria. Anyhow, the clan decided to take the chance and conducted transfusion from Fion’s body to lainshu’s who is the second young master of the Clan.
Lainshu was the second son of Fion’s elder uncle who was also the clan leader. His Talent is second only to fion and had a million bacteria which are of xing class, cilium Plasma Familia.The biggest reason why the clan decides to take the risk is during the process of transfusion, absolutely no harm will come to the person who is at the receiving end, the only thing is the extremely low possibility of acceptance,But this entire matter is completely different for the donor.
At the very least , most of the bacteria will be stripped from the donor ,which leaves him in an weakened state for rest of his life.Most of the times, the cells cannot sustain the minuscule amount of bacteria present and it will most likely lead to death.Clearly ,the clan valued Lainshu more than Fion after the incident and they only gave a little thought about this.
These repercussions were even hidden from Fion as they were afraid that something will likely to go wrong if he knows. In the end , the transfusion was half successful as Lainshu’s host bacteria accepted some of the foreign bacteria and evolved . It increased his bacterial pool by a million and also made his bacterial quality type evolved to hermit class of his same previous Familia. It’s said that one can never increase his talent after born but there are always some exceptions like these process. Even if some techniques exist to change the talent, it will have very low possibility for the favourable outcome to occur.
It was evening as sky began to dim greatly. After nightfall, the danger part would increase by several times while staying in wilderness. It is absolutely suicidal for anyone under mitogene stage since people below this stage only have to rely on their senses to become aware of their surroundings unlike mitogene experts who can see in darkness . Every Martial beasts are excellent night hunters. So even a blood beast , which was comparable to early plaudit stage , will dare to attack on any late plaudit experts.
“It’s time for me to leave” he calmed his mind and once again he regained his tenacity as he looked forward for the day of his revenge. Even though it is near impossible , he never gave up as he trained harder till now.
Suddenly , he heard a fissure in earth as the small cliff collapsed. He panicked and carefully looked around to see any presence of martial beasts . After an anxious minute , he moved to check the cliff.
“This is … it’s impossible … how can …” fion was bewildered by what he saw .Among the rubble and small rocks , he saw a wooden box which was partially damaged by the crumple. Inside the box which was exposed by the damage of the rock debris , he saw the face of a human teen, what’s more baffled him was the sheer amount of bacteria present in the body of the teen.
