Pill God Returns

Lu Tan's facial expression finally changed. He had never thought that Wu Chen's strength would be so powerful that he could unleash the power of an Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure to such a terrifying extent.    

    

"Crack!"    

    

A sharp sound pulled his thoughts back. Lu Tan took a closer look and was shocked to see a crack appearing on his Golden Circle.    

    

"How is this possible?"    

    

Looking at this crack, Lu Tan was incomparably shocked in his heart. He couldn't believe it. He had never thought that Wu Chen's strength would be so powerful that even the Golden Circle he condensed with all his strength could be shattered.    

    

The others were also shocked and dumbfounded. They had never thought that Wu Chen's strength would be so terrifying. Not even Lu Tan, expert at the Eighth Empyrean of True Martial Stage, was a match for him.    

    

"Break for me."    

    

Wu Chen shouted out loudly. He held the Sirius Spear in his hand, and a wave of pressure started to erode his body. When it was used on the crack, the crack rapidly expanded. In an instant, the entire Golden Circle was covered by it. It was simply unable to resist Wu Chen's power.    

    

"No, I can't lose. It's absolutely impossible."    

    

Lu Tan roared furiously. The energy in his body surged and poured into the Golden Circle. He tried his best to maintain the power of the Golden Circle, trying to salvage the situation.    

    

However, no matter how hard he tried and how hard he tried to salvage the situation, there was no way to reverse the situation.    

    

"Bang!"    

    

Finally, Lu Tan's Golden Circle could no longer hold on any longer. It completely collapsed and turned into an endless rain of light that radiated down from the sky.    

    

"Ah!"    

    

Lu Tan let out a miserable cry. His body was sent flying backwards, and a rain of blood fell from the sky. He fell to the ground in a sorry state. The surging Qi around his body also fell down in an instant.    

    

Everyone was shocked as they looked at Lu Tan who had fallen to the ground. All of them couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. This result... This was something they had never dreamt of. expert at the Eighth Empyrean of True Martial Stage and Lu Tan had actually lost. They had lost to a Fourth Empyrean of True Martial Stage warrior.    

    

After glancing at Yan Zhen and the others, Wu Chen turned around and left. This time, he chose to spare Lu Tan's life. Because Yan Zhen, Bai Ran and the others were watching. If he killed Lu Tan... It wouldn't be good if the news got out. After all, he still needed to rely on the Beichen House to obtain some cultivation resources.    

    

After defeating Lu Tan, Wu Chen continued to advance. He didn't know if it was because his luck had run out, but he didn't gain much from the rest of the journey.    

    

"It's time to leave."    

    

Since he couldn't find any treasures, there was no need for him to stay any longer. Besides, he had already gained a lot this time. With so many Spiritual Treasure, it was enough for the Dragonslaying Knife to break through to the Earth Rank.    

    

Time flew by. Another half a month passed. During this half a month, perhaps Wu Chen would stay in Heavenly Sound City. Or perhaps he could go to the Heavenly Sound Mountain Range to take a stroll and obtain some Demonic Beast. He was waiting for the Dragonslaying Knife to level up. The reason why he wanted so many Spiritual Treasure... It was all for the Dragonslaying Knife. It was all for the sake of helping it level up. As long as the Dragonslaying Knife could level up smoothly, his strength would rise along with it. It would increase by a huge margin.    

    

"I've finally finished swallowing it."    

    

Seeing that the Dragonslaying Knife had finally swallowed all of the Spiritual Treasure, Wu Chen's face revealed a gratified smile. The current strength of the Dragonslaying Knife was several times greater than before. In fact, it was even stronger than some Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure. It should be able to break through to the next realm.    

    

Next, he could sit and wait for the Dragonslaying Knife to level up. He wanted to see what kind of scene it would be after the Dragonslaying Knife was upgraded to an Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure.    

    

However, what made Wu Chen incomparably disappointed was that he had been waiting from left to right. He could not see any signs of the Dragonslaying Knife advancing. This made him feel a sense of disappointment in his heart.    

    

"Why haven't you leveled up yet?"    

    

Looking at the Dragonslaying Knife, Wu Chen didn't understand. It had clearly reached the standard of advancement, but it refused to advance no matter what.    

    

Because of his anger, he grabbed the Dragonslaying Knife and threw it out of the window. He was extremely angry. What kind of sh * t was this? Why did it devour so many Spiritual Treasure? Its strength was even stronger than an Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure, but it refused to break through.    

    

At this time, the Dragonslaying Knife flew back from the window, and it shone with a dazzling light. It was also innocent. It thought that it only needed to devour a lot of Spiritual Treasure. After absorbing enough energy, it would be able to advance smoothly. Who knew that things weren't as simple as it thought?    

    

Wu Chen gradually calmed down. He began to think about the reason. He had absolute confidence in the saber that he had refined. It was certain that he would be able to advance to the Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure. There was no doubt about it.    

    

However, what exactly was the problem? Wu Chen thought about it and could not figure it out.    

    

"Oh right, Artifact Forging Treasure Book?"    

    

Suddenly, Wu Chen thought of the Artifact Forging Treasure Book. This was a priceless treasure that the Refiner regarded as a bible. It was a classic work, and his knowledge in artifact forging came from this Artifact Forging Treasure Book.    

    

He repeated the contents of the Artifact Forging Treasure Book several times in his mind, searching for the reason. He didn't believe that the Dragonslaying Knife didn't have the potential to advance. This was absolutely impossible.    

    

"Could it be because of the artifact spirit?"    

    

After searching several times, Wu Chen found the possible reason. Perhaps it was because there was a lack of Weapon Spirit.    

    

Humans had souls, and weapons also had souls. The Spiritual Treasure was called the Spiritual Treasure. The difference was... It was different from ordinary weapons because it contained spirituality. In other words, one must infuse spirit into the Spiritual Treasure in order to forge it. To make a Spiritual Treasure have its own spirituality, this spirituality was something that the Spiritual Treasure had never seen before. It has a very important meaning,    

    

when the spirituality of a Spiritual Treasure reached a certain level, it would transform into an artifact spirit. An artifact spirit was something that absolutely did not exist in the Spiritual Treasure. Even a High-Grade Spiritual Treasure would not exist because its spirituality was lacking. It was not enough to transform into a Weapon Spirit, even if it was in many Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure. At least, it didn't exist within the Sirius Spear. As for the Heaven Rank and Spiritual Treasure, there was definitely a Weapon Spirit. There was no doubt about it.    

    

However, there were also some high quality Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure. The spirituality within them was very strong, and after a long period of time, they had evolved. It had condensed into a weapon spirit, a type of Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure. It was an invincible existence amongst Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure of the same level. Among Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure of the same level, there was no magic treasure that could match a magic treasure with a weapon spirit.    

    

"How should I spirit it?"    

    

After finding the root of the problem, Wu Chen had to think about how to find the spirit. Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure was a Spiritual Treasure that was of a higher grade than ordinary Spiritual Treasure. Naturally, the requirement for spirituality far exceeded that of an ordinary Spiritual Treasure. This was also the reason why an Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure was difficult to forge. Even if it was a master craftsman... It was not an easy task to forge an Earth Rank Spiritual Treasure.
