Adam breathed heavily. His body was drenched in blood, there were numerous scars littered all across his flesh, and steam constantly emanated from him.
The steam was a result of the Five Elemental Codex neutralizing the corruption.
Throughout the entire battle, he was constantly circulating the Codex. As a result, the corruption hadn't reached deep inside his body.
Still, the damage done to him wasn't something he could ignore. After all, in his battle just now, he had been injured countless times.
So he retrieved another fruit from his ring and ate it with trembling hands. The fruit from the unholy tree brimmed with vitality. Not only did it help him recover his strength and heal his wounds, but it also helped to reinforce his physique on a fundamental level.
The vitality from the fruit consumed in tandem with circulating the Five Elemental Codex had become the perfect counter for battling the corruption!
