Pill God Returns

Wu Chen was still staring at the magma below. Since he couldn't find it, the only way was to enter the magma and take a look.    

"I'm going to go down and take a look."    

Although the power of the magma was terrifying, as long as he was careful, it shouldn't be a big problem. Furthermore, Wu Chen was also a cultivator of the fire attribute, so he had a certain degree of endurance towards high temperature magma.    

"What? You want to go down?"    

Xia Youlan and Shun Yan were shocked. What was down there? The hot magma had a very terrifying energy. Even they, Cultivator, couldn't enter it casually. It would be very troublesome.    

"Why do you want to go down? Is that thing down there?" Shun Yan guessed.    

"Yes." Wu Chen nodded.    

The two girls looked at each other and thought for a moment. They also felt that it was possible. Because they had already searched the vicinity, but they still did not find anything. Other than lava, there was still lava. Since they couldn't find anything in the surroundings... Then, it was very likely that it was under the lava.    

"Are you sure?"    

Wu Chen thought for a moment and shook his head. "I'm not sure, but I think we should go down there."    

The two girls were still hesitant. After all, the thing below was not something casual. It was burning lava, one of the most terrifying forces in nature.    

"Don't worry about me. The cultivation technique I practice has a certain suppressive effect on the lava."    

The Fire Phoenix Formula was one of the most powerful cultivation techniques in the world. It possessed unparalleled strength. If one cultivated it to the extreme, the Power Of Fire they possessed could even surpass the magma.    

After saying that, Wu Chen circulated the Fire Phoenix Formula. Immediately, a powerful flame erupted from his body, causing his entire body to burn. In an instant, he turned into a man of fire.    

Seeing this, the two of them stopped trying to persuade him. They knew that Wu Chen had already made up his mind, so it was pointless to try and persuade him anymore.    

"Be careful. If you find anything unexpected, come up immediately."    

Wu Chen lightly nodded his head, took a deep breath, and slowly went down.    

Very soon, his feet touched the lava. Immediately, a burning sensation spread out, as if his feet were going to be burned off.    

Wu Chen took a deep breath and circulated the Fire Phoenix Formula and Imperishable Gilded Body Technique in his body at the same time. The Fire Phoenix Formula! It was responsible for absorbing heat and slowing down the burning sensation. The Imperishable Gilded Body Technique was used to fortify his defense, preventing the lava from corroding his body.    

Very quickly, the burning sensation disappeared. After a while, Wu Chen started to dive deeper into the lava.    

Seeing this, Xia Youlan and Shun Yan became nervous. They kept a close eye on Wu Chen's every move. If anything happened to him, they would immediately help him.    

Wu Chen continued to dive. It didn't take long for his body to completely disappear into the magma.    

After entering the layer of magma, Wu Chen saw something. It was only the magma. Other than that, he couldn't see anything else. Endless magma surrounded his body and kept moving towards his body. This was a terrifying lava with terrifying destructive power, constantly eroding the protective layer on his body. It wanted to melt his entire body.    

In such an environment, it required a tremendous amount of energy to maintain the protective layer on his body. Once the protective layer was broken through, it would be extremely troublesome.    

Furthermore, being wrapped in lava would greatly hinder one's vision. Needless to say, the Soul Force was also severely restricted and blocked, making it impossible to see much of the distance.    

"Let's increase our speed."    

Wu Chen also increased his diving speed. The deeper he dived, the more he felt the terrifying power of the lava. The high temperature and lava were constantly eroding him, wanting to melt him down and digest him.    

Travelling in this kind of place required a lot of energy. Even with Wu Chen's strength, it was impossible for him to hold on for long. He needed to use pills to replenish his energy. Luckily, Wu Chen was an alchemist. Pills weren't a problem for him.    

The biggest problem for him to travel through this place was still the difficulty of probing. Due to the obstruction of the magma, his vision and Soul Force were greatly restricted, and he couldn't sense much of the magma.    

Therefore, he could only bet his luck and see if the place where he was diving was the place where the light beam had come from.    

"It's already five hundred meters, and I still can't see the bottom. Damn it."    

Wu Chen couldn't help but want to curse. This magma layer was really deep. It was already so deep, yet he still couldn't see the end of it. This made him extremely angry.    

Moreover, the deeper he dived, the greater the pressure of magma. Now, the place he was at had reached a point where even expert at Astral Reaching Stage's heart would tremble. Before this, the protective shield on Wu Chen's body had already been broken by the magma a few times.    

It was really hard to know what kind of terrifying things he would encounter if he continued diving.    

"Let's go up first."    

He was not worried about medicinal pills, because the medicinal pills on his body... There were so many of them that it was impossible to estimate. What he was afraid of was that the power of the lava was too powerful. After breaking through his protective barrier, the scorching lava started to erode his body. It would burn his entire body.    

After an hour, Wu Chen emerged from the magma layer.    

"Why did you reach the top so quickly?"    

Wu Chen found it hard to believe. He had once estimated that it took him more than an hour to dive down. However, it only took him an hour to go up. This was obviously not reasonable. Normally, it was easy to dive down, but difficult to climb up. Therefore, according to his estimation, it would take him more time to get up there. However, that was not the case.    

Furthermore, he had roughly estimated that he would only be able to reach a distance of two hundred meters when he rose this time around. Compared to the previous five hundred meters, the difference was like heaven and earth.    

Shaking his head, Wu Chen did not think too much about it. He withdrew his thoughts and lifted his head to look at the place in front of him. His face turned pale with fright.    

"What is this place?"    

Wu Chen suddenly realized that he was completely unfamiliar with the place in front of him. He did not recognize this place at all. Besides, Shun Yan and Xia Youlan were not here either. All kinds of evidence proved that the place he was at right now... It wasn't the same place as the place he came from before.
