Pill God Returns

On an island, Wu Chen woke up from his sleep. In the sky, there was a scorching sun hanging high up in the sky. It was the scorching sun that woke him up.    

He raised his hand to block the scorching sun. His consciousness gradually returned and Wu Chen woke up.    

"I don't know how long I've slept for."    

Wu Chen looked around. He understood that he was on an island. Previously, he had tried his best to swim out of the sea. However, when he climbed onto the island, he had lost consciousness because of the severe exhaustion of his physical strength. What happened after that... He didn't know anything else.    

Shaking his head, he shook off the messy thoughts in his mind. Wu Chen took a deep breath and circulated his strength. Immediately, a sharp pain came from his chest, causing him to spurt out a large mouthful of blood.    

"It hurts."    

Wu Chen knew very well that it was Fu Bi's last attack before he died. That strike was very overbearing. If it was anyone else, they would have been hit by it. As for him, the reason why he was able to survive was because of luck. It was all because he was wearing a Middle-grade Spirit Armor, a Middle-grade Spirit Armor. His defense was extremely strong, and he was able to defend against Fu Bi's final attack. The Treasure Spirit Bead didn't penetrate his body. Otherwise, he would have been in the Yellow Springs by now.    

"This injury is really serious."    

He gently lifted his clothes and looked at his chest. Wu Chen smiled bitterly. Although the strike didn't pierce through his body, but it's also a major trauma to the heart, even with a little bit of luck. His chest was in so much pain that it was biting to the bone.    

However, now that he had woken up, it wouldn't be a big problem for him to treat his injuries. He was Pill God, and his skills in alchemy and medicine were superb. As long as he didn't die, it wouldn't be a problem for him.    

"I wonder what kind of island this is."    

After walking around the island, Wu Chen found some tools in an abandoned cave. There was also a tattered scroll. When he opened it, he found that it was a map of the sea.    

Judging from the map, this island was called Haifen Island. It was an uninhabited island. It was the closest island to this island, fifty nautical miles away.    

Since it was an uninhabited island, he did not care about it. He quietly stayed on this island and focused on healing and recovering his strength.    

This time, his injuries were very serious. Compared to the injuries he suffered when he fought the Sect Master of Cloudburst Sect, his injuries were even worse. Even he had used up half a month's time. Only then did he fully recover, and his strength had also recovered.    

"Yunlai Sea."    

Wu Chen stood on a reef and looked into the distance. He held a scroll in his hand. It was the tattered map he found half a month ago. From it, he learned that... This was the Yunlai Sea, one of the ten great sea regions of the East Mystic Region. About five hundred nautical miles away from this island, it was a country, and its name was Yunlai Dynasty.    

Speaking of the Yunlai Dynasty, Wu Chen couldn't help but think of Gu He and Gu Kun. When these people tried to take his life in the ancient tomb, they were killed instead.    

Thinking of this, Wu Chen couldn't help but frown. Gu Family and Yunlai Dynasty might not let this matter rest. Perhaps, they would use this incident to stir up trouble. It might even cause a war, and Yunlai Dynasty was a medium-sized country. What about the Great Qi Kingdom? It was just a small country, and the difference in their overall strength was too great. If the Yunlai Dynasty started a war, the Great Qi Kingdom wouldn't be able to withstand it at all.    

Thinking of this, Wu Chen felt a headache coming on. However, no matter what, he should go and take a look, understand the situation, and then make some specific plans. In any case, he had already fully recovered from his injuries, and his cultivation base and strength had almost fully recovered. He should leave this place now.    

However, before he left, he still had to do something important. That was to level up the Dragonslaying Knife. Currently, the Dragonslaying Knife had already devoured all the mid-grade Numinous Treasures in his possession. However, what surprised him the most was that the Dragonslaying Knife still hadn't advanced to High-Grade Spiritual Treasure.    

Since swallowing a mid-grade Numinous Treasure was useless, he could only think of getting the High-Grade Spiritual Treasure. Previously, he had obtained five High-Grade Spiritual Treasure in the ancient tomb's spatial zone. Originally, the Dragonslaying Knife had been drooling over these five treasures for a long time. However, due to his low grade, he was unable to devour them. Thus, he could only covet them. There was nothing it could do about it.    

Now that Wu Chen had fully recovered from his injuries, he naturally had to deal with this problem.    

After leaving Xi Yang City, Wu Chen walked into the deep mountains and found a remote place to start upgrading the Dragonslaying Knife.    

"You bastard, you have eaten so many mid-grade Numinous Treasures but you still haven't advanced. I really don't know what to say to you."    

He glared at the Dragonslaying Knife. This fellow was truly a gluttonous ghost. His appetite was extraordinarily huge. According to his original estimates, with so many mid-grade Numinous Treasures, this fellow would definitely be able to advance to the High-Grade. However, the outcome of the matter had greatly exceeded his expectations. Since the Dragonslaying Knife had yet to break through, there was nothing else he could do. He could only sacrifice these High-Grade Spiritual Treasure.    

After listening to Wu Chen's words, the Dragonslaying Knife flew up and circled around Wu Chen's body. Wu Chen understood what he meant and said, "Alright, stop acting like a spoiled child. This time, I will let you devour these High-Grade Spiritual Treasure. If you still can't break through and advance, I'll refine you. "    

Upon hearing this, the Dragonslaying Knife lit up and was filled with joy. It had been coveting those few High-Grade Spiritual Treasure for a long time, and it had long wanted to devour them.    

Seeing this, Wu Chen shook his head. He was looking for these Spiritual Treasure. It was all for this Dragonslaying Knife. This saber was forged by him using the Black Iron. It was his Intrinsic Magic Treasures, so he naturally had to do his best to nurture it. He had to work hard to help it level up. If that was the case, to him... It's also very beneficial.    

Wu Chen took out a High-Grade Spiritual Treasure from his interspatial Storage Ring and looked at it. He was reluctant to part with it. After all, this was a High-Grade Spiritual Treasure, and it was very powerful. With this item, he would be able to gain a huge boost in his combat strength.    

However, in order to upgrade his Dragonslaying Knife, he could only bear the pain and give it up. Furthermore, he believed that the Dragonslaying Knife would never let down his expectations. In fact, the Dragonslaying Knife had indeed not let him down during these past few days.    

"Taijin Genuine Tactic."    

With a furious roar, he circulated the Taijin Genuine Tactic. A powerful force surged into the High-Grade Spiritual Treasure, wanting to melt it.    

Sensing the threat, the High-Grade Spiritual Treasure trembled violently. A terrifying energy erupted from it, trying to resist Wu Chen's power.    

"With This God here, you won't be able to behave atrociously."    

Wu Chen roared out loudly. An even stronger energy surged into his body, forcefully suppressing the Resistance and melting it.    

This High-Grade Spiritual Treasure was an ownerless item, so how could it withstand Wu Chen's Taijin Genuine Tactic? Very quickly, it stopped moving, and was forcefully suppressed.    

"Swoosh!"
