Deserted island, atop the sandy beach.
Little Black curled its body around, tightly protecting Lu Chen in the middle.
Lu Chen saved it, but it did not know how to save Lu Chen.
Besides feeling that Lu Chen had passed out due to excessive loss of blood essence, it was at a loss for what to do.
It was on the verge of a breakthrough when it suddenly sensed that Lu Chen's presence had disappeared. Out of concern, it immediately stopped cultivating and rushed back to find him.
It then discovered Lu Chen unconscious on the sandy beach and the hard-earned spear shaft left discarded beside him.
But despite that, Lu Chen was clutching tightly to a clean jade bottle in his hand.
The bottle that used to resemble white jade, now showed a strange red hue.
Little Black speculated that the clean jade bottle might be the cause of Lu Chen's unconsciousness and tried to remove it, only to find that the bottle seemed to be firmly glued to Lu Chen's hand.
