The majority of my worries at the moment were centered around the amount of energy that I had yet to consume and the increasing rate at which it was rushing back.
It was a problem that didn't end, that didn't stop, not even when I sensed that the very existence that my eradication of brought upon the current problem… ceased to exist.
Whatever this spirit, AI, or whatever else it was, at some point, the tendrils of my pure Qi ended up dissolving the last of it, the last few blocks of infected Qi that the intelligence behind them somehow shot through the space, nearly succeeding at bringing forth some sort of an attack upon me.
In the end, however, even this last of this invisible monster ended up just sizzling away when faced with the overwhelming vortex of the energies all trying to merge into my now-established core.
