Inwardly, Wang Hou was actually refusing the Amoxicillin Capsules.
After all, he was aware of his injury.
A Void-tier elite having his abdomen pierced was nothing much. The problem was the Sword Will and Demonic Qi that the Sky Demon Cult's Saint had left on his wound. That could be erased with Yuan Qi after he secluded himself for ten days or half a month.
He stuttered for a long while, but was simply unwilling to take the medicine.
Jiang He lifted a brow and asked, "Are you afraid of taking medicine, Minister Wang?"
Wang Hou sneered inwardly. Trying to goad him into action?
That would not work on a child, so how would it work on him?
"Jiang He, I really don't need to take medicine. Moreover, the Amoxicillin Capsules are anti-inflammatory and would only cure a small cold like a respiratory infection … Eh?" Wang Hou's face dropped even before he finished.
He could clearly feel that the wound under the large band-aid, which looked like some kind of female product, was rapidly healing.
Moments later.
Wang Hou plucked off a piece of the band-aid. The ghastly wound had completely healed, and not even a scar was left.
Wang Hou was dumbstruck.
He looked up at Jiang He with a blank look on his face.
And yet, in the next instant …
Blargh!
The wound that had just healed burst open again.
"Fine …" Jiang He shook his head and barked, "How old are you, Minister Wang? Why are you grumbling like a three-year-old when I tell you to take medicine? "
"Look, the Sword Qi and Demonic Qi in your body have yet to be purged, and your wound has only healed. That's not the root of the problem, and the outburst of Sword Will blew up the wound that had just healed."
Jiang He took out two more Amoxicillin Capsules and handed it to Wang Hou.
Wang Hou accepted it mechanically, tipped his head back and swallowed it.
Jiang He, who had wanted to remind Wang Hou to wash it down with warm water, could not say much when he saw that. It was normal since some people were born with difficulty swallowing medicine, while others were like Wang Hou, who did not need to drink water even after taking medicine.
Jiang He then picked up the band-aid that Wang Hou had torn off and stuck it on him again, saying, "Alright, Minister Wang. Rest well and recover. It's almost daybreak, so I'm going to find a place to sleep."
Wang Hou replied, "The Martial Arts Department (MAD) has a guest room. I'll have Deputy Zhou arrange it for you."
"No, no, there's a hotel outside. I'll book a room."
After leaving the Martial Arts Department (MAD), Jiang He found a hotel to stay in, and took a bath when he reached his room.
After taking a shower, he lay on the bed, unable to fall asleep.
The night slowly faded and the sun soon rose, but Jiang He did not feel sleepy at all.
Getting off his bed, Jiang He could not help chuckling bitterly.
"My old habit is acting up again. I haven't slept all night, but I don't feel sleepy at all …"
"I must be subconsciously worried that the Sky Demon Cult's Saint and the Dragoncroc Emperor would work together to kill me, which is why my sleep quality is dropping."
Jiang He's expression turned somber as he sat on the edge of the bed.
This problem was too serious!
He had to deal with it as soon as possible, or he would not even need the Sky Demon Cult's Saint and the Dragoncroc Emperor to do anything. He would not be able to sleep or eat every night, and he would probably be exhausted in no time.
"The most direct and effective way to break the alliance between the Sky Demon Cult's Saint and the Dragoncroc Emperor is to kill them all … but my ability is limited, and I could only kill one of them at the moment!"
Jiang He decided to improve his own ability.
He turned to his System Panel.
[Name: Jiang He]
[Cultivation: Immortal Path — full-fledged Golden Pellet; Martial Arts — divine-tier (divine-conversion)]
[Ability: Royal Sword, fire]
[Martial Arts Cultivation: Indestructible Diamond (Mastery +), Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms (Mastery +), Blind Princess's Eight Practices (Third Practice +), Strengthened Nine Yang Technique (Eighth Tier +), Ninefold Thunderblade (Seventh Fold +), Dragon-Elephant Prajna (Fifteenth Tier +), Nine Heavenly Stars Body Formula (Second Tier +), Three Thousand Calamities (Second Fold +), Twenty-Three Swords (First Style +)]
[Owned Land: 9 Mu]
[Farm Level: 5 (EXP 15000/500000)]
[System Backpack: 24 boxes]
[System Shop: Unlocked]
[Farm Points: 2400000]
After his farm reached level 5, the System Backpack had increased from 18 boxes to 24, and the farm area had increased from 3 Mu to 9 Mu. Even so, the EXP needed to level up was a little excessive — it had directly increased from 50,000 to 500,000.
After complaining a little, Jiang He turned to look at the Farm Points column.
2.4 million Farm Points was not a small amount, but it was definitely not a lot either.
The Second Fold of Three Thousand Calamities cost him 500,000 Farm Points to level up, and the Third Fold …
Jiang He tried it out, and found that it took five million Farm Points to level up, a tenfold increase in cost. Still, it made sense when he thought about it …
After all, cultivation would only get harder as one progressed.
After all, once he reached the Third Fold of Three Thousand Calamities, he would instantly become a full-fledged True Child cultivator, and his combat ability would increase more than tenfold. Was it not reasonable that the Farm Points cost would only increase tenfold?
As such, Jiang He turned his gaze towards the Nine Heavenly Stars Body Formula.
To tell the truth, as a sword cultivator, Jiang He wanted to cultivate various sword techniques and arrays …
"Still, there are benefits to improving my physique."
"If I cultivate up to the Third Fold of Nine Heavenly Stars Body Formula, my physique and strength would definitely increase exponentially. When that happens, I could pummel Void-tier cultivators like Wang Hou to death with my physique alone, and he wouldn't be able to hurt me even if I stood on the ground and let him attack me."
Helpless, Jiang He could only convince himself with such a reason.
[Ding!]
[-2 million Farm Points.]
"Congratulations, Host. You've successfully advanced the body refinement immortal technique [Nine Heavenly Stars Body Forging Technique] to the third stage.
Kaboom!
A voice that resembled a tsunami echoed from Jiang He's body.
Dong!
His heart was pounding like a thunderous war drum.
His muscles, bones, skin, and even his innards were rapidly evolving and strengthening. In fact, Jiang He could feel that certain parts of his body were strengthening, and could not help scowling in annoyance.
"Isn't the Nine Heavenly Stars Body Formula a little indecent?"
"I'm already very strong in that area, and if I strengthen it further … I would probably have to find a dozen wives in the future."
Sigh!
Breathing a long sigh, Jiang He complained inwardly, but showed that he understood it quite generously.
After all …
The Nine Heavenly Stars Body Formula was an immortal physique that improves every aspect of the body. If he did not strengthen that area, would it not become a weak spot?
It was a common occurrence in many wuxia dramas.
A certain Physique Training Boss had an invincible body and was invulnerable. He beat up the protagonist, side characters, and other righteous people until they cried for their parents. In the end, the female protagonist suddenly died, and the protagonist showed his prowess. He hit the Physique Training Boss's weak spot and won …
Jiang He did not want such a melodramatic plot to happen to him.
"Right now, my physique alone could match a True Child cultivator, but that is far from enough …" Jiang He entered his farm in a flash, taking out the Autumn Water Sword and a dozen Doom Shrooms.
He knew very well that the Saint of the Sky Demon Cult would not be easy to handle.
That fellow's ability was above Marquis and very mysterious, and he might have some unknown moves. Moreover, the Dragoncroc Emperor was not weak either, and according to Marquis's hunch, it might have the support of some ancient daemons.
Perhaps it had even cultivated the Demonic Cultivator's cultivation method.
He must not be careless, and he must improve his combat ability to the limits of his current abilities!
"If my hunch is right, the Autumn Water Sword is probably a water-type mystic flying sword, although there's no telling what grade it is … once I plant it, I could cultivate the Ice and Fire Duality Sword Array."
"As for the Doom Shrooms …"
"I could use it as an area-of-effect attack since I only have the Three Thousand Calamities, which isn't quite enough …"
Of course.
Whether he could use the Doom Shrooms as an area-of-effect attack would depend on the effects of planting it.
What use would it be if it exploded with a yield of a few thousand tons?
It would not even be as powerful as a casual punch from him, and it would need to be at least several hundred tons to be worthy of the name Doom Shrooms, would it not?
