Chen Wang arrived at the Shelter B.

He didn't go to the bar to find the Divine Ability- powerful Brother Xiaobai right away, but instead found a place to settle down first.

Having money makes things easier. Chen Wang was always generous and lavish in the Winter, and he quickly found a place to stay.

He didn't buy any real estate; he just rented a house.

The landlady was a young girl, quite fair-skinned, named Xue Qingling.

She is 1.7 meters tall, with shoulder-length hair and an oval face.

"My father is ill, and I happen to be here, so I'll handle things here. You can also come to me if you need anything," Xue Qingling said.

Chen Wang nodded. "Okay."

After the handover was completed, Chen Wang paid the deposit and settled into the apartment.

The young girl Xue Qingling, left.

After Xue Qingling left, Chen Wang sat down and lit a cigarette. "The Shelter here is finally safe and sound. If things don't work out, it'll be fine to stay here."

He came to this Shelter B on a mission, and it was originally more chaotic than the Shelter C where he was located.

Chen Wang was somewhat surprised by the young girl Xue Qingling today. She was too clean and didn't seem like someone from Winter. She looked more like a school beauty.

"I didn't ask about her profession earlier. What kind of profession can cultivate such temperament?"

After the thought crossed Chen Wang's mind, he stopped thinking about it, took a deep drag of his cigarette, and leaned back in his chair.

Recalling his earlier escape from the bloody battle in the Red Cloud Sect Market, after a short rest, he originally intended to return for revenge, but instead encountered a battle between Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Chen Wang thought about it and decided that he should be more open-minded.

They fought their way out, but also exposed many of their methods, which made them the target of many people.

Later, to avoid causing a big commotion, he stole a motorcycle and sped here.

"Now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

Chen Wang sighed.

Recently, the Church attacked the Shelter, causing a great deal of panic. Instead of staying in a hotel, Chen Wang found a mid-range apartment and settled down, choosing to live a life of seclusion in the city.

"Gene Warrior can wipe out many squads and deal with firearms, but their individual strength is still not enough to fight against an army."

Chen Wang sighed.

He took out Healing Pill, sat cross-legged, and began to recover from his injuries.

An hour later, he regained some of his strength, opened his eyes, and his eyes shone brightly.

"We can't go back to the Red Cloud Sect for the time being. It involves that Old Ancestor of the Red Cloud Sect, and we don't know how long the fight will last."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

Compared to the Cultivation World, although the Winter is dangerous, it is relatively safe as long as you avoid the Shelter C.

"The only saving grace is that we managed to purchase a batch of supplies, so we're not worried about delaying our cultivation."

Before the bloody battle broke out at the Red Cloud Sect, Chen Wang exchanged the Black Cloud Leopard Golden Saint Pill, Little Yellow Dragon Pill, and Detoxification Pill to heal his wounds.

The Spiritual Qi was thin in the Winter, but these pills were enough for him to cultivate.

After resting for a while, Chen Wang took out the Gene Serum from his hand.

"If the injection had been administered earlier, our combat strength might have been even higher, and the retreat would have been more relaxed."

Having learned his lesson, Chen Wang decided that he would administer the drugs immediately after obtaining them in the future.

He then injected himself with the Firebird potion, a third-tier Firebird that could breathe fire and increase his understanding of fire elemental power.

After the injection, another wave of excruciating pain struck.

He had already been injected with the Firebird Potion once.

After this injection, Chen Wang discovered that his Genetic Ability were not enhanced, but his physical strength was strengthened.

Chen Wang sensed it and was somewhat disappointed, but then he was relieved. "If Gene Serum can have cumulative effects, then injecting multiple of the same types would have overwhelming power."

For others, repeatedly injecting Gene Serum is tantamount to committing suicide.

Not only does it damage bodily functions, but it also carries the risk of sudden death. In particular, if one only strengthens the physique without enhancing Genetic Ability, the risks increase while the benefits decrease, making it even less worthwhile.

But Chen Wang is different. He is already very familiar with the path of mixed medicine. Moreover, for him, it can restore physical damage, strengthen the physique, and easily transform Qi and Blood to enhance his body refining speed.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Wang then injected the Mind Master's medicine. After the familiar intense pain subsided, Chen Wang was drenched in sweat.

He is currently injured, and the injection of Gene Serum is indeed putting a considerable strain on his body.

Then he injected the Marksman's potion into his hand.

Gene Serum were extremely rare on the market, and later became even more strictly regulated.

Presumably, the control of Gene Serum will become even more severe after this battle.

Chen Wang injected all the medicines directly, and then sat cross-legged to meditate and circulate the Profound Fire True Gold to recover.

He had already mastered that special Xuan Fire, and a faint aura, somewhat scorching, emanated from his body.

His blood flowed extremely fast, as if forming flames, and after a long time of repairing his injuries, Chen Wang slowly opened his eyes and gently exhaled.

He slowly got up, making crackling sounds as he did so.

"Sure enough, the increase in the effect of the injected drug decreased as time went on," Chen Wang said.

After receiving two vials of Tier 3 drugs and one vial of Tier 2 drugs, he did not gain any boost to his Genetic Ability, and his physical strength also increased only to a limited extent.

Even so, it can accelerate his body-refining speed, making his physical body as strong as possible.

It's equivalent to indirectly purchasing high-quality body-refining pills, giving yourself a little cheat code.

"Gene Serum are still very important, but it's best to find a way to buy High-Level Potion, otherwise the boost will be less and less as you progress."

Chen Wang sighed.

He was not in a hurry to practice the Tiger Strength Bull Demon Fist or the ultimate techniques in the Divine Elephant Fantasy Diagram.

Instead, he continued to sit cross-legged in meditation, breathing exercises to restore his cultivation and heal his injuries.

Two days later, Chen Wang had fully recovered.

He practiced boxing in his apartment, his movements were wide and expansive, and his movements were extremely swift.

In Square Inch space, they actually created a feeling of overwhelming force!

Bang bang bang bang!

He shattered the air with his attack, creating a sonic boom, his bones and muscles throbbing as if thunder were roaring! Chen Wang slashed down with both hands like battle blades, his gaze as fierce as a hawk's, his aura ruthless! The next day, he had fully recovered from his injuries.

Currently, he is practicing the ultimate techniques of the Divine Elephant Visualization Diagram.

At this moment, his Qi and Blood like a rainbow!

"With the boost from the Gene Serum, cultivation is indeed faster."

Chen Wang stopped and sighed in his heart.

This cultivation speed is quite remarkable.

"I don't have any methods for body cultivation to Foundation Establishment. Body cultivation can be used for self-defense, but I should focus most of my energy on Qi cultivation."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

Qi cultivation is currently the most sustainable and long-term solution.
