NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1343: Resurrection?
After the Hall Master finished speaking, her aura quickly diminished, and within ten seconds, she completely lost all traces of her presence.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yu instantly breathed a sigh of relief, collapsing utterly to the ground.
At last, he had narrowly escaped disaster.
He never expected that after investigating for so long about those traitors, all his efforts would yield no results.
Yet today, one of them would suddenly appear and nearly bring him to death's door.
However, after the battle with the Hall Master, Zhou Yu finally understood.
The old man did not teach him the Tai Chu Skill randomly at all.
According to the Hall Master, the Tai Chu Skill could not only refine the Heavenly Law Dao Bead and achieve a Supreme Golden Core.
It could also counter these defectors, no matter how high their cultivation was, they seemed unable to resist the 'Tai Chu Returning to Origin' move.
This proved that everything had been arranged by the old man long ago.
"He truly is an old master, no wonder when he left the village, he didn't worry about me dealing with those traitors."
Zhou Yu couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
After a brief moment of reflection, Zhou Yu struggled to get up and surveyed his surroundings, especially noting the array barrier enveloping the area.
After some investigation, Zhou Yu discovered that after the Hall Master's death, the array barrier was now in a state that could be broken at any time.
However, the array must be broken from the inside, as the outside continued to operate normally.
As such, unless Zhou Yu willingly exited, it would be difficult for outsiders to enter.
Most importantly, the spiritual energy here was abundant, with plenty of readily available Spiritual Medicine.
It was simply a perfect place to recover from his injuries.
Zhou Yu didn't delay, immediately sitting cross-legged to begin healing his injuries.
This battle with the Hall Master had left him severely injured on all fronts.
His Primordial Spirit was withered, his physical body shattered, his Golden Core depleted, and even his internal organs were severely damaged.
After consuming some Spiritual Medicine, Zhou Yu immediately began refining it.
Because he possessed Yimu True Essence, as long as his Golden Core returned to normal, his physical injuries would heal much faster.
As the large amounts of Spiritual Medicine were refined within Zhou Yu, pure medicinal power transformed into Spiritual Power and was absorbed by his Golden Core.
As the absorbed medicinal power increased, the initially depleted Golden Core gradually began to regain its luster.
Half a day later, Zhou Yu's Golden Core returned to normal.
Then, Zhou Yu activated the Tai Chu Skill, furiously consuming the surrounding spiritual energy to heal his internal injuries.
After a day and night elapsed.
The injuries within Zhou Yu's body were nearly healed.
As his eyes opened, his gaze had already recovered its bright and shining spirit.
Although the injuries were not completely healed, they were about seventy to eighty percent recovered.
Though this place was quite good, Zhou Yu did not intend to stay any longer.
After all, with the death of the Pill God Temple Master here, for whatever reason, it would likely cause quite a stir within the Pill God Temple.
And he was the one who killed the Pill God Temple Master, who knew what he would face once he left.
Zhou Yu secretly contemplated that after leaving here, he would immediately take Lin Luoluo and slip out of the Pill God Temple before anyone reacted.
He hoped everything would go smoothly.
Of course, before leaving, Zhou Yu had one very important thing to do.
That was to find the Heavenly Law Dao Bead that the Hall Master had taken.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu immediately got up and walked towards the direction of the Hall Master's corpse.
However, as soon as he took a step, his expression suddenly changed dramatically.
He saw that where the Hall Master's body had been, it was now completely empty.
In an instant, Zhou Yu's pupils constricted sharply.
Where is the Hall Master's body?
This place was within the array barrier, and while he was healing his injuries, there had been no signs of the barrier being attacked.
How could the Hall Master's body just disappear into thin air?
Zhou Yu naturally did not believe in superstitions about ghosts and spirits.
There was only one explanation, which was that the Hall Master was not dead.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu immediately turned in place, looking around, but even though the Alchemy Room was large, it was still visible at a glance.
There was no sign of the Hall Master in the Alchemy Room.
Zhou Yu immediately activated his Primordial Spirit, fully extending his perception to start investigating.
However, the entire room remained empty, with no trace or aura of the Hall Master left behind.
Zhou Yu's expression became extremely somber.
At the same time, he had a very strong sense of crisis.
He had a subtle intuition that the Hall Master was still here, watching him all the while.
Zhou Yu slowly turned his body and said:
"Hall Master, I've been healing for so long, and you haven't made a move. If I'm not mistaken, your injuries are even more severe, and you don't dare to reveal yourself lightly."
"If you continue to hide, who knows how long your injuries will allow you to hold out."
After Zhou Yu's words fell, the room was deathly silent, with no response.
Zhou Yu's face darkened, and he continued:
"I know you must be hiding here. I'll give you one last chance to come out by yourself."
"If you don't come out, don't blame me for being ruthless and destroying this place."
"The abundant spiritual energy here, combined with the vast earth fire source beneath the Pill Furnace, gives me enough confidence to flatten several kilometers around here."
"When that happens, you'll still die."
After Zhou Yu said this, suddenly, within the array barrier, came an angered yet helpless voice.
"Wait, don't take action."
"I'll come out!"
