Simulator: Starting as a Green Snake and Transforming into a Dragon

Chapter 303 Handing in the Task

Without any hesitation, he quickly set off on his way back. After all, this was the territory of the Technological Immortal Sect, and who knew if another powerful expert from them would suddenly appear? This time, he wouldn't be able to handle even a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, let alone a Golden Core cultivator at the Great Perfection stage.

Currently, his Myriad Dragons Diagram is slightly damaged, and he himself has suffered severe internal injuries, only able to exert 30% of his strength. In fact, he should be healing immediately in this state, but alas, it is too dangerous here, so he can only drag his injuries back. Fortunately, Gu Yuchuan himself has the talents of invisibility and cloud-riding, so even with serious injuries, the journey back is relatively safe. He quickly dragged his injuries back to the Myriad Demon City.

The monster guarding the city was a demon king at the fourth level of the Golden Core stage, named the Crimson Tiger Demon King. He recognized Gu Yuchuan and was startled by the scene. He quickly came over to support Gu Yuchuan.

"Go and notify the doctor immediately."

Gu Yuchuan's condition wasn't too bad, but his face was pale, his body was covered in blood, and his steps were unsteady, making him look like he was about to die. In addition, his current status was very important, which made the Crimson Tiger Demon King panic.

Soon, the doctor arrived. The doctor's true form was a flower with healing effects, and he held a high position in the entire demon race. However, his cultivation level was only at the Golden Core stage. He made a conclusion after a brief look at Gu Yuchuan.

"The Azure Dragon Demon King's injuries look quite severe, but in reality, they are not particularly serious. He just needs to take some pills and rest for a couple of days. I see traces of pills in the Demon King's body, so he must have taken some, but he didn't meditate properly to digest them. He can just meditate and digest them on his own."

The Crimson Tiger Demon King was a little embarrassed. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way. After all, Gu Yuchuan looked so badly injured. In fact, Gu Yuchuan had been about to stop him, but he had just landed and hadn't even had a chance to speak when the other party shouted. He had no choice but to speak now. But it was his turn to speak.

"Thank you, Doctor. I'll go back and rest properly now. And thank you, Crimson Tiger Demon King, for helping me find a doctor. Otherwise, I would have had to go there myself later. In my current condition, I can't continue talking to you. I need to go back and heal."

His words eased the awkward atmosphere, and they dispersed. Gu Yuchuan quickly returned to his room, set up a simple formation, and began his healing journey. His injuries were indeed serious, and if he didn't heal them soon, it might affect his very health.

He swallowed another pill that looked like white jade. This was a third-grade pill, the Heart-Nourishing Pill, which was specially used to heal injuries. It had a very good effect on internal injuries and damage to mana of cultivators. The price of this pill was about five hundred spirit stones. Many Golden Core cultivators liked to carry one with them, because it could heal injuries very quickly in critical moments.

As the elixir entered his body, he felt an energy repairing his damaged meridians, and his body felt much more comfortable. This was a very happy thing. He secluded himself for three whole days before his injuries started to improve, at least enough to restore a lot of his combat power. However, the injuries were not completely healed, and he still needed to continue his seclusion for about seven more days. The injuries were so severe that they wouldn't heal so easily.

However, he still chose to leave the pass for a while because he hadn't yet turned in his mission. Although he had completed the mission and brought back a lot of food, it was all in his storage bag. He certainly couldn't let it drag on indefinitely, otherwise it would definitely not be good.

He went straight to the mission center. The war was now divided into two parts. The first was the military offensive, led by powerful figures, to attack cities and gradually advance their advantage, turning the Canglan Realm into the territory of the Qingyun Realm.

The second part consists of people like Gu Yuchuan who received individual missions. These people all share a common characteristic: they are irreplaceable and highly skilled in individual combat. Placing them in the military would be a waste of their talents, as it would prevent them from fully utilizing their strengths. That's why they were given these missions.

The person handing over the task was an old tortoise, who was actually just a demon general. Well, such a simple job was perfectly capable of being handled by a demon general. Besides, this was the City of Ten Thousand Demons, the main base of the Qingyun Realm's demon race in the Canglan Realm. It was definitely very safe, and there was no need to worry about safety. A demon general was more than capable of handling this task.

He was overjoyed to see Gu Yuchuan; his old face was all smiles.

"Your Highness Azure Dragon Demon King, you've finally arrived. The Demon Emperor instructed us three days ago that when you came to hand in your mission, we would take you to her. If you hadn't come today, we would have gone to your cave to find you."

Gu Yuchuan nodded slightly. What did the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor want to see him about? It couldn't be that he was being given a series of missions, could it? He really didn't want to do missions right now. He had just returned from such a big mission, and his injuries hadn't even healed yet. Going out again would be a bit inhumane.

However, he had no choice in the matter; he could only go to the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor to see what the other party's plans were.

The office of the Cloud Phoenix Demon Emperor was quite grand, a rather large government office. When Gu Yuchuan arrived, the other party was still busy and did not have time to see him. The servants led him to the reception room, served him some tea, and told him to wait.

He actually quite disliked this kind of thing—waiting for people. It was a complete waste of time. With that time, he could either continue to heal his injuries and completely resolve the problems within his body, or he could cultivate properly and advance to the seventh level of the Golden Core stage. Wasting time waiting for people was something he didn't want to see.

However, there was nothing that could be done. The Cloud Phoenix Demon Queen was extremely busy with many things every day, so others could only wait for her. After all, as the leader of the mission department here, she had far more to do than Gu Yuchuan could have imagined.

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait long; the other party arrived in about half an hour.

The Cloud Phoenix Demon Queen still looked elegant and noble, but Gu Yuchuan could also see some fatigue in the depths of her eyes. It seemed that this high position had brought her great benefits, but it had also made her very tired. If a powerful being at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage could be so tired, it was clear how many things she had to deal with every day.

After she sat down, she drank a cup of tea before she began to speak.
