But everything has its pros and cons. The downside of the immune system is that it has a huge side effect when it comes to organ transplants. Take the topic of selling a kidney for an iPhone 4 as an example. Even if the donor's genes were successfully matched, even if the donor had been taking drugs to suppress the immune system, the 1 year survival rate of the donor's kidney (Note, it's not the patient's survival rate, it's the survival rate of the donor's kidney) was 85%, the 5 year survival rate was 60%, and the 10 year survival rate was only 1%!
After transplanting the 'Stairway of the Sun' into Sheyan's body, it would be besieged by Sheyan's immune system. Moreover, this was a battle that the 'Stairway of the Sun' couldn't win. Victory would signify the collapse of Sheyan's immune system, which was equivalent to the end stages of AIDS.
Sheyan's best news was that the 'Stairway of the Sun' had relied on the progenitor virus to deceive his immune system, causing it to believe that the 'Stairway of the Sun' was an organ of his body …... to put it bluntly, the immune system was like a huge door, while the 'Stairway of the Sun' was a visitor. In order for the visitor to achieve his objective, he definitely wouldn't kick down the door, allowing any thief to enter. Instead, he would knock on the door, open it for him to enter, and close the door once again.
Therefore, at this moment, it all depended on the progenitor virus of the 'Stairway of the Sun'. However, the 'Stairway of the Sun' that entered Sheyan's body had already undergone the baptism and suppression of the coiled serpent venom, before undergoing various environmental changes. Whether the progenitor virus still existed in its body, or even if it still existed, it was hard to say whether it was still the progenitor virus. Its effects were simply impossible to predict.
After slicing off the 'Truth Node', Old Aram then pulled out an inverted skull from his back. Then, he poured a foul smelling liquid down Sheyan's throat, forcing him to gulp it down. That liquid contained the bones and fur of dead birds and rats. Basically, the taste was absolutely awful. Perhaps, one could even chew on a mouthful of sand after a single mouthful …..
After finishing all that, Old Aram used an amateur technique to reconnect Sheyan's cut sternum. Then …... of course, he didn't know how to stitch it up. Instead, he plucked a large amount of common vines from the ancient forest, and squeezed out a viscous white fluid. Then, he boiled it over a nearby bonfire, before smearing it over Sheyan's chest wound. It appeared as though he was gluing it together.
At present, Sheyan couldn't care less. Ever since the 'Stairway of the Sun' was implanted into his body, he felt an indescribable agony. It was an indescribable agony, as though countless hands were tearing at his muscle fibers, while countless tongues were gnawing at his nerves! Such agony was akin to the raging blood coursing through his limbs and bones, as though it would never end.
Even with Sheyan's tenacious mental state, he couldn't help but feel an impulse to cry out and give up. If not for his body being paralyzed, he would've frantically struggled to escape. He endured the indescribable agony with all his might. After what felt like several centuries (but in actual fact, only 5-6 minutes had passed), he drank the medicine from that incomparably nauseating skull bowl. The agony gradually subsided, and was replaced by a rather bizarre itch. This itch was exceedingly distinct, and appeared around the 'Stairway of the Sun' that was implanted into his chest. It caused him to have an impulse to viciously rip apart his chest and scratch it!
Under such torment, Sheyan's vision unexpectedly conjured up a series of illusions. It appeared as though he was observing blood cells under a microscope. Those blood cells were twisting and splitting into various bizarre shapes, as they successively devoured each other …... Sheyan couldn't endure for long within these illusions, and bluntly fainted.
In the following days, Sheyan alternated between the four states of numbness, agony, unconsciousness and lucidity. After 24 hours, he distinctly sensed that Sheyan's lucidity was increasing, while the duration of agony and numbness was decreasing. Fortunately, he only had to pay 1000 utility points per hour to stay in Qom village. If not, he would've long been forced to sell off his equipments by the realm …...
Finally, after 48 hours, Sheyan finally received a belated notification from his nightmare imprint.
[Secret Ndipaya Royal Family Ritual: 'Babu Babu' concluded.]
[You have contracted the 'Ancestors' virus.]

[Ability rank: Suspected to be rank 9? No reference data.]
[Ability evaluation: S? No specific reference data, can only provide a rough estimate.]
[The 'Stairway of the Sun' has become the fourth major system in your body alongside your blood, nerves and lymph – the viral circulation system!]
[You are immune to all viruses and diseases. Ability possesses domain precedence!]
[You have acquired the ability: 'Babu Babu'. You can control your body's muscles at will, and automatically interrupt the circulation of the viral circulation system; causing it to fail or take effect.]
[You possess a portion of plant characteristics. Details are as follows:]
[Your sense of pain is permanently weakened by 50%.]
[After suffering a bleeding effect, its duration will be forcibly halved.]
[Wherever you are in contact with water or earth, your HP regeneration rate will be raised by 100%.]
[The above effect possesses domain precedence!]
[You possess the 'Origin Photosynthesis' ability. When active in areas with intense light, your mouth, nose and pores will continuously produce a potent corrosive gas; dealing continuous damage to enemies within a radius of 5 metres. Damage value is currently 10-50 points/second.] (Regardless of any form of damage reduction effect, minimum continuous damage value is 5 points of true damage.)
[You now possess the Continuous Photosynthesis ability. When you move around in a dimly lit area, your mouth, nose, and pores will continuously produce a powerful healing gas, granting a rapid recovery effect to your surrounding allies. The current recovery rate is 5 points per second.]
[The above effect possesses domain precedence!]
Sheyan took a deep breath as he examined the list of notifications …... his perseverance had finally paid off! After the 'Stairway of the Sun' had become a viral circulation system, the series of passive rewards he had acquired were rather terrifying. Moreover, all of them possessed domain precedence!
Furthermore, he had acquired the 'Pestilence Monarch' ability, an'S 'rank ability! Sheyan also noticed that this ability possessed the three major suffixes of 'Concealment', 'Mutation' and 'Able to grow'! He reckoned that this was the combination of various unconventional elements, resulting in such a monstrous ability.
However, when Sheyan saw the keywords' Tier 9 'and'S', he would be lying if he said he wasn't ecstatic. But after his ecstasy subsided, he very realistically realized one thing! When he was learning how to concoct the 'Uruk-hai gene fluid', this ability was merely evaluated as a Tier 6 ability by the realm. Yet, it could already be described as a Tier 9 ability with an'S 'rank evaluation …... heavens!!! Wouldn't the amount of achievement points required be fatal?
Carrying a perturbed and complex mood, Sheyan began to examine the description of his' Pestilence Monarch 'ability.
'Pestilence Monarch'
[Requirement: Owner must be a stable A-virus carrier]
[Rank: Tier 9]
[Evaluation: Concealment Able to Grow – S]
[Additional description: The A-virus is a mutated variant of the progenitor virus. This virus targets the human physique, greatly reducing the destruction and transformation of the host's body. Instead, it evolved towards devouring, replicating and substantially strengthening the immune system.]
If the most famous variants of the progenitor virus, the T-Virus and G-Virus, were aimed towards the development of perfect biological weapons, then the A-virus pioneered the compatibility of the progenitor virus. Perfect replication and powerful evolution capabilities, it is a completely new type of biochemical virus, hailed as the monarch of all viruses.]
[Additional description: The owner of this virus can control various diseases. Its main combat style is to unknowingly infect large numbers of enemies with various diseases, silently tormenting the enemy to death!]
[Pestilence Monarch ability: 'Spread' – The incomparably valiant survivability of the A-virus can amplify the spreading radius of the virus by 100%.]
[Pestilence Monarch ability: 'Immune system nullification' – The A-virus relies on the host's immune system to survive. Therefore, it possesses an incomparably valiant invasive ability, allowing it to ignore the immune system of the enemy. Physical resistance and even various laws, only specialized disease resistance will be effective against it.] [This ability possesses domain authority.]
[Pestilence Monarch ability: 'Stealth' – The A-virus can stealthily invade the enemy's body, and the enemy's perceptive sensing will not be alerted. Only when the symptoms occur will the enemy receive relevant notifications. This ability possesses domain authority.]
[Details: Your body contains a living 'Stairway of the Sun'. Achievement points, utility points and potential points required to strengthen the virus will be reduced by 50%.]

After browsing till here, the general description of 'Pestilence Monarch' came to an end. When Sheyan continued to examine it in detail, he discovered that below 'Pestilence Monarch', there were shockingly 3 options for strengthening: (To be continued.
