Chapter 503: Chapter 503: Kong Wu’s Last Letter!

Rushing to the bottom of the cave, Lu Chen felt a weight lift from his heart, but couldn’t help feeling doubtful.

"It seems they must have left," he said.

He sighed deeply, having thought he wouldn’t have to part with Qin Yaotiao anymore, but unexpectedly, things had gone otherwise.

Fortunately, he had given Qin Yaotiao the wooden puppet substitute, so there was no need to worry about her condition.

And Li Yanran, who also had one, would surely teach Qin Yaotiao how to use it.

At the same time, Li Yanran would not give up on Yu Qingqing and Mo Buwen. At least, from the current situation, those four were in much better circumstances than himself.

Although he had just broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and the Five Elements Spiritual Power within Lu Chen’s body was incredibly surging and solid, the external injuries created by the unblemished fire still required recovery.

While racing to the bottom of the cave, he was extremely concerned about Qin Yaotiao and the others, thus he ignored the pain in his body.

Now that he calmed down, each breath he took pulled at the burned flesh and skin.

"The path-protecting clothes are stuck to it; I need to find a way to recover," he muttered.

Lu Chen gritted his teeth, knowing he had to tear off the clothes sticking to his body to facilitate healing.

But with each piece he tore off, his skin came with it, causing him terrible pain.

However, Lu Chen’s temperament was resolute. Compared to the agony he experienced when his Dantian was excavated, and to the recent burns from the unblemished fire, this was much less.

Once the path-protecting clothes were completely removed, Lu Chen sat down naked.

He intended to put on another set of path-protecting clothes from the Casting Gear Pavilion, but then he thought if he healed with the clothes on, the newly regenerated skin might stick to them again.

With a wry smile, he said to himself, "Looks like I’ll have to heal while bare."

Lu Chen had experience in healing wounds, and although he was not familiar with this method, he knew that Water Spirit Power could solve his problem.

He activated the Heaven-Breaking Spiritual Method, transforming the Five Elements Spiritual Power in his Dantian into gentle streams of Water Spirit Power that enveloped his body.

The flesh and skin began to recuperate at a visible pace, scabbing over.

In just the time it took an incense stick to burn, Lu Chen’s skin was as good as new, as delicate as that of a newborn baby.

After putting on a set of path-protecting clothes from the Casting Gear Pavilion, Lu Chen furrowed his brows deeply.

His body had healed, but an extremely uncomfortable power was moving beneath his skin.

Initially, he thought it was the poison from the unblemished fire, so he increased the Water Spirit Power, attempting to remove this poison.

However, quickly realizing his efforts were futile, he surmised it was certainly Taoist essence!

"I didn’t expect this Taoist essence to be so strong! If Water Spirit Power can’t drive it away, what should I do?" he pondered.

Having had a previous experience with Taoist essence trying to seize his Taoist platform, Lu Chen was extremely wary of this essence beneath his skin, knowing he must remove it or he wouldn’t dare to continue cultivating!

Moreover, he had now reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment and had found the method to Core Formation.

If something went wrong during that process, all would be lost!

Although he possessed Resentful Heaven Blood, which could counteract the bane of being born with a Taoist Body, he still held a sense of reverence.

"Right, don’t I know how to perform Alchemy? Let’s see if the ’Resentful Heaven Pill Scripture’ has any pills that could solve this!" he reminded himself.

Lu Chen hadn’t had a chance to practice alchemy, constrained by various conditions.

Now, he had several storage bags and an alchemy furnace, and he possessed Spiritual Fire.

It was the right time to try it out!

Having made up his mind, Lu Chen opened Kong Wu’s storage bag and took out everything inside.

Exquisite jade boxes faintly exuded the scent of spiritual medicines, and with just a glance, Lu Chen could recognize that the medicines inside were either of exceptional grade or of sufficient age.

"Humph, worthy of being a prodigy from the Haotian Sect!" he exclaimed internally.

Lu Chen didn’t rush to open them but continued to inventory his loot, not just his own but also that of several other Haotian Sect disciples.

He placed the jade boxes to one side, collected all the spirit stones into his own storage bag, and stored all the magic artifacts together as well.

Finally, Lu Chen’s gaze fell upon a letter.

The letter was sealed with wax, but it bore signs of having been opened.

His eyes flickered thoughtfully for a moment before he decided to pull the letter out of the envelope.

At just a first glance, the contents of the letter changed his expression dramatically!
