169: Fike’s Pill

Fike’s Pill

Fike looked back at the puzzled Gu Wuya.

"It's a pill I made myself. It can quickly heal wounds received in battle."

"Is it really that magical?"

Gu Wuya asked doubtfully.

Fike nodded.

"Can't you tell just by looking at Eddie's current condition?"

Eddie Moss' wounds had completely healed, and he was already back to his original condition.

Gu Wuya glanced at him before turning his attention to Fike.

"Do you still have this kind of medicinal pill? Could you show one to me?"

Seeing that Gu Wuya was asking for it, he casually handed him a pill that had been refined a while back from his backpack.

"Here, you can have it!"

Gu Wuya took the pill and sniffed it.

He quickly blurted out.

"Good medicine! How did you do it?"

Fike explained.

"I picked up some knowledge about alchemy in the past. It's not very difficult to make this, just that the material requirements are quite high."

After hearing this, Gu Wuya continued asking.

"Can you refine pills that increase cultivation speed?"

Fike nodded.

When Gu Wuya saw this, he quickly said.

"Later, come with me to my room. I have some rare herbs there."

Fike seemed puzzled.

"Eldest senior brother wants me to refine pills for your cultivation?"

Gu Wuya shook his head with a smile.

"No, it's not that. At my current strength, I can't use these external aids to improve my cultivation anyway.

"I was hoping that you could refine some pills for some of the weaker disciples of the East Immortal Sect. It's a small request as an eldest senior brother on behalf of my juniors."

Fike beamed after hearing this.

"Since eldest senior brother is so considerate of us juniors, then of course I can!"

In Fike's heart, he had never expected that this cold and aloof eldest senior brother before him would actually turn out to be someone who was so considerate of his junior brothers.

Previously, he hadn't gotten a good impression of Gu Wuya. Now, however, the man's image was slowly being subverted.

When the disciples below the stage heard this, they all cheered and jumped in joy.

"Eldest senior brother is so loyal! He is indeed the idol that I admire!"

The crowd agreed.

After some discussion, Gu Wuya turned his attention to Fike and Eddie.

"It's about time, let's go back!

"Oh yeah, your name is Fike, right?"

Gu Wuya looked at Fike as he asked.

Fike nodded. Then, Gu Wuya spoke again.

"Good! I, Gu Wuya, will remember you!"

The crowd soon dispersed as Gu Wuya brought Fike and Eddie back to the East Immortal Residence, stopping before the eldest brother's room.

Inside, Fike saw a countless number of pages detailing the moves and techniques created by Gu Wuya scattered across the room.

On the wall hung the sword technique of the 32 Swords Slash.

As Fike looked around in amazement at the techniques that Gu Wuya had developed himself, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

'I didn't expect that so many of the moves in the Celestial Arcanum were actually created before Gu Wuya even became a god.

'He is too powerful!'

At this moment, Gu Wuya found a black box by his bed.

He opened it, revealing a number of rare herbs inside.

The hidden information kept flashing their details in front of Fike, the qualities of them completely surpassing his knowledge of rare herbs.

Fike asked, puzzled.

"Eldest brother, you said that you never went down the mountain, so where did these rare herbs come from?"

Gu Wuya answered straightforwardly.

"I collected these at the bottom of the East Sea."

"The bottom of the East Sea?"

As he echoed Gu Wuya's words, he thought back to his conversation with Xiao Zhao earlier, where she had mentioned it as a cultivation spot of the East Immortal Sect.

The East Sea was the easternmost end of the entirety of the world of Miracle, with only more of the endless sea further east of it.

Its waters were turbulent, and it was home to countless ferocious demonic beasts.

This was the training ground for the stronger disciples of the Eastern Immortal Sect, located at the foot of the East Immortal Mountain.

Fike took the black box from Gu Wuya and examined its contents.

Then, he asked again.

"Eldest brother, these herbs don't seem to have grown underwater. Do you think..."

"Could it be that there are some treasures under the East Sea?"1

Eddie Moss interrupted excitedly.

"I've been to the East Sea several times before, and these herbs were always floating in the middle of the sea. When I found them, they were still shining.

"If you say so, it seems that there may indeed be something strange beneath the waves."

Gu Wuya shrugged indifferently.

Hearing this, Eddie said excitedly.

"In that case, why don't we go down to the East Sea to investigate? How about it?"

After hearing this, Gu Wuya frowned slightly as he continued.

"The East Sea hides an immense pressure in its waters. The further you go deeper, the more painful the pressure. With your current strength, I'm afraid..."

Hearing Gu Wuya's warning, Fike immediately turned to the hidden message in his heart.

"Hidden message! Hidden message! Is there any way for me to dive to the bottom of the East Sea?"

The hidden message replied quickly.

[Hidden Information: Refining a water repellant pill will allow you to swim in the sea like a fish, and its effects last for an entire day. The ingredients needed to refine a water repellant pill are...]

Fike watched as the hidden message went on, giving the list of ingredients required to refine the pill.

He found that he had almost all the ingredients, except for something called the Deep Blue Herb.

So, he asked Gu Wuya.

"Eldest brother, do you know where to get Deep Blue Herb?"

Gu Wuya responded without pause.

"I remember that the second elder had some. Why do you ask?"

Fike smiled and continued.

"I've found a way to get to the bottom of the East Sea!"

Eddie excitedly butted in after hearing this.

"Fike! Fike! Can I go to the bottom of the East Sea too with your method?"

Fike nodded confidently and continued.

"Not only could you go down to the bottom of the sea, even ordinary people who have never cultivated immortality could freely dive to the bottom and swim like fish if they use my method!"

Gu Wuya didn't seem to doubt his words at all.

"Is your method using the Deep Blue Herb?"

Fike smiled.

"That's only part of it. After I get the Deep Blue Herb, you'll see what I'm planning!"
