Immortal Path Space

Chapter 375: Magic Weapon

Wang Hong carefully organized all of Liang Tan's belongings. In total, he acquired two Tier-Three Spiritual Herbs, a piece of Tier-Three refining tool metal, and some high-quality Spiritual Weapons.

Those few strands of silk, after Wang Hong's appraisal, also appeared to be Tier-Three materials, albeit in limited quantity.

Although the remaining items were only Tier-Two, they were all exceptional within the Tier-Two category.

At this moment, Wang Hong took out Liang Tan's small dagger once again. This was his first Magic Weapon, and he had heard from the onlookers that it was called the Frostlight Dagger.

He had heard that only Golden Core cultivators could wield Magic Weapons, and Foundation Building cultivators were unable to use them.

However, since he now possessed a Magic Weapon, how could he rest without personally giving it a try?

He held the small dagger in his hand and infused it with Spiritual Power. However, this few-inch-long dagger seemed to have an insatiable appetite for Spiritual Power, absorbing it like a bottomless pit.

Wang Hong continued to channel his Spiritual Power into it. The small dagger appeared to have a thirst for Spiritual Power, gradually actively absorbing it and even generating some suction.

This suction force grew stronger over time, to the point where his Spiritual Power inside his body involuntarily flowed toward the dagger.

He quickly took out a bottle of Spirit Wine and drank more than half of it in one gulp. Once the Spirit Wine entered his stomach, it rapidly replenished the Spiritual Power he had consumed.

However, as soon as he replenished a bit, the dagger would absorb it again, and the replenishment couldn't keep up with the consumption.

At this point, Wang Hong gritted his teeth and took out a bottle of Tier-Three Spirit Wine, taking a small sip. As the Tier-Three Spirit Wine entered his stomach, the massive Spiritual Energy quickly transformed into Spiritual Power and erupted within him.

The immense Spiritual Power surged through his meridians and dantian. Fortunately, he had already depleted his internal Spiritual Power, so the impact of the Spiritual Energy was somewhat reduced.

Then, the dagger quickly absorbed this Spiritual Power as well. When the Spiritual Power converted from a sip of Tier-Three Spirit Wine was also mostly absorbed, the dagger finally floated up, growing to a size of three feet.

With a light point towards a stone bed inside the cave mansion, the Frostlight Dagger swiftly flew out. With a single stroke, it cleaved the stone bed in half, as though cutting through tofu.

After just one strike, Wang Hong quickly retrieved the Frostlight Dagger, and it returned to its small dagger form in his hand.

Although he could barely use the Magic Weapon with the help of Tier-Three Spirit Wine, the consumption was simply too great.

The sip of Tier-Three Spirit Wine he had just consumed would be enough to replenish the entire Spiritual Power of a Golden Core cultivator.

However, after only using it for a moment, his internal Spiritual Power was almost depleted.

Based on this experiment, Wang Hong speculated that the main reason why it was said that Foundation Building cultivators couldn't use Magic Weapons was because their Spiritual Power was insufficient to activate them.

The richness of his Spiritual Power was unmatched among Foundation Building cultivators, even surpassing most late-stage Foundation Building cultivators.

However, he still needed to drink a sip of Tier-Three Spirit Wine to activate it. Tier-Three Spirit Wine was a rarity, not something that everyone, even among Golden Core cultivators, possessed.

Wang Hong put away the Frostlight Dagger, which still bore Liang Tan's imprint. Although most of the imprint had dissipated after Liang Tan's death, the remaining part would need to be gradually removed in the future.

And then, he would need to refine them, a process that would take a very long time.

After collecting all these items, he once again entered the Space.

The insect eggs he had placed inside during his previous visit had not yet hatched, but he could sense that their life force had grown stronger. They were likely close to hatching.

After checking on the eggs, he scattered most of the low-grade Spirit Stones he had obtained this time into the Space, increasing its size by another twenty mu.

Currently, the total area of the Space was two hundred and ninety-five mu, with time passing at a rate of three hundred and twenty-four times faster than the outside world. This meant that while only a little over a day passed outside, a whole year had already gone by within the Space.

Wang Hong planned to use the newly added twenty mu of land to cultivate Tier-Two Spiritual Herbs. The number of Foundation Building cultivators under his command had been steadily increasing, and they required a substantial amount of Tier-Two Spiritual Herbs.

Once he had planted all twenty mu with Spiritual Herbs, he went to check on the insect eggs and found that most of them had turned black.

He picked up one of the blackened eggs and carefully examined it with his Divine Sense. Inside, a small black insect had formed, and its shape gave him some clues.

He decided to stay within the Space because the time difference was too significant. In the time it took him to go out for a meal, several dozen days could have passed within the Space, and the newly hatched insects might have already starved to death.

During his time in the Space, he read books, occasionally checked on the Spirit Plants he had planted, or went to the pond where the Ink Jade Spirit Lotus grew to admire the lotus flowers and the fish swimming in the pond.

He had successfully cultivated a whole pond of Ink Jade Spirit Lotus, with the lotus flowers and mature lotus pods intermingling beautifully.

If someone were to see this entire pond of Ink Jade Spirit Lotus, they would likely be astounded.

After spending more than a month in the Space, Wang Hong finally witnessed the hatching of the insect eggs.

These insects were entirely black and slightly larger than a pinhead. Wang Hong used a twig to pick up one and examined it closely.

As he had suspected, they were a type of Spirit Silkworm. However, there were many different species of Spirit Silkworms, and at this size, it was impossible to determine their specific variety.

Since he had found some Tier-Three silkworm silk in Liang Tan's Storage Bag earlier, he suspected that these might be Tier-Three Spirit Silkworms.

Spirit Silkworms were valuable creatures. The silk they produced could be used to make inner armor or robes, and their excrement, known as Silkworm Sand, could be used as a Spiritual Herb.

Even if they accidentally died, the dead Spirit Silkworms could still be used as a Spiritual Herb called White Stiff Silkworm.

Wang Hong had been wanting to raise some for a while, but he had never come across the right silkworm species.

He picked some mulberry leaves from the Purple Cloud Mulberry tree, shredded them, and fed them to the baby silkworms.

In the following days, he would need to regularly care for the newly hatched Spirit Silkworms within the Space, providing fresh mulberry leaves when needed.

After three years of growth in the Space, the black baby silkworms went through their first molt. Their deep black color turned into gray, and their size increased more than tenfold.

Now, he no longer needed to watch over them every day.

He picked some mulberry leaves from the Purple Cloud Mulberry tree and threw them to the Spirit Silkworms before exiting the Space.

Once outside, Wang Hong instructed Liu Changsheng to recruit some new members to replenish their fresh blood. Since the last battle with Liang Tan, the Immortal Way Trading Company was no longer a secret organization but had become widely known.

Now, countless people wanted to visit Liu Changsheng, primarily to obtain resources from him.
