Immortal Path Space

Chapter 274: A Turn of Events

Wang Hong sat cross-legged in a secret chamber, holding a vibrant, red Green Spirit Peach in his hand. It was a ripe Green Spirit Peach that he had been eager to eat for a while.

As he gazed at the alluring, red fruit, Wang Hong had longed to take a bite. However, he had to restrain himself previously because his Spiritual Power had become unstable after a rapid advancement, and he hadn't fully stabilized it yet.

Now, he could finally indulge himself. Taking a bite, the juice burst forth, and the peach's flesh was tender and delicious, with a fragrant aroma.

With each bite of the peach, it transformed into a substantial amount of Spiritual Energy, and in the sea of his dantian, a small rain shower of Spiritual Power began to fall.

A thumb-sized flame in the middle danced joyfully, doing its best to intercept the falling rain of Spiritual Power. After absorbing the Spiritual Power, its size increased slightly.

Wang Hong couldn't stop himself from devouring the peach, and soon, only the peach pit remained in his hand.

He carefully placed the pit in a wooden box since it could also be used in pill refinement.

After refining the Spiritual Energy from this Green Spirit Peach, the Spiritual Power in his dantian had risen by almost a foot. With just one or two more of these peaches, he could ascend another level.

However, the increase in Spiritual Power from this particular peach was so vast that it showed signs of becoming uncontrollable due to the sudden surge.

He would have to wait a while before consuming another one, but the taste of the Green Spirit Peach was truly unforgettable.

Exiting the secret chamber, Little Peng immediately greeted him, nuzzling Wang Hong's body with its large head.

It seemed to sense that Wang Hong had eaten something delicious without sharing, and it projected a hungry thought toward him.

"You're not hungry! You've eaten all the spirit fruit in the spirit fields, half of the Three Yang Melon Seeds from three acres, and you even damaged the beehive on the Spirit Jujube Tree the day before yesterday. Don't tell me it wasn't you! Who has a Spirit Beast that eats more than its master?"

Little Peng thought to itself, "With my size, of course, I eat a lot. Although I sometimes feel uncomfortable when I eat too much, I digest it quickly. As for those Spirit Bees, they used to sting me all over when I couldn't fight back, so I'm just settling the score now. Besides, Spirit Honey tastes really good."

Seeing Little Peng put on a pitiful expression, Wang Hong pulled out another Green Spirit Peach and offered it to him. Little Peng opened its mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Then, it looked at Wang Hong with the same pitiful expression as if nothing had happened before.

"Is there any point in eating like that? Do you even know how it tastes? Go away, there's nothing left!"

After Wang Hong said that, he kicked Little Peng, sending it flying more than ten feet away.

"Why are you so hard? You're like a big block of iron. You hurt my foot when I kicked you."

After kicking Little Peng away, Wang Hong scolded it a bit.

Little Peng usually roamed freely in the cave mansion, and Wang Hong rarely paid attention to it. As a result, all the various Spiritual Objects in the spirit fields had been devoured by it. All the ripe spirit fruit in the orchard had disappeared as well.

At that moment, a Transmission Talisman flew in from outside, and Wang Hong caught it. Inside, Zhang Chunfeng's voice came through, and Wang Hong quickly responded with another Transmission Talisman.

A moment later, Zhang Chunfeng arrived to pay a visit. Wang Hong opened the cave mansion's formation and welcomed him in.

As it turned out, Zhang Chunfeng had come to bid farewell. The sect had assigned him to head to the East Sea to resist Demonic Beasts. He would depart in three days, accompanied by more than a dozen fellow disciples.

In recent years, the battles had been incessant, and the Cultivation World had been sending reinforcements to both the east and west directions. However, no one had returned from those regions.

Just ten days ago, the human race had lost another Cultivation City, and only a few strong cultivators had managed to escape. Most had become food for the Demonic Beasts.

Now, a small area near the East Zhou Cultivation Realm, close to the East Sea, had been completely occupied by the East Sea Demon Clan.

As a result, the East Zhou Cultivation Realm was once again mobilizing tens of thousands of cultivators to reinforce the eastern frontlines.

"Be cautious when you go there, and take these items with you for your own safety," Wang Hong said, reaching into his Storage Bag and pulling out several bottles of second-tier Spirit Wine, as well as some healing Pills and a stack of second-tier Talismans.

Among these bottles were Hanyu Pills that he had refined using Jade Marrow Mushrooms, which had superior healing properties compared to regular second-tier Pills.

Even though he had plenty of Jade Marrow Mushrooms that were over a thousand years old, having Hanyu Pills at the Foundation Building stage was more than enough for him.

Having these three items on the battlefield would greatly increase his chances of survival.

"Also, have some tea first. Wait for me a moment!" Wang Hong left these words behind and entered another secret chamber.

Over the past few years, he had maintained contact with Wang Yi, who was now also fighting against Demonic Beasts in the East Sea. Wang Hong took this opportunity to ask Zhang Chunfeng to bring some things to Wang Yi.

Using a Jade Scroll, Wang Hong wrote a letter to Wang Yi and placed it in a Storage Bag. Then, he packed several large jars of second-tier Spirit Wine, various Pills, and a wooden box containing three pills he had refined from a thousand-year-old Jade Marrow Mushroom - the Yu Shui Dan.

These pills were true lifesavers, capable of healing even the most severe injuries. Wang Hong emphasized in the letter that Wang Yi should not reveal them easily to others, as it could lead to unwanted consequences.

He also put two ripe Green Spirit Peaches into a Jade Box and sealed it with a Talisman.

Wang Hong hadn't seen Wang Yi in a while, so he didn't want to send him off with just a few things.

He stuffed everything he could think of into an oversized Storage Bag. Second-tier Talismans, different types of spirit fruits, Spirit Rice, homemade pastries, and even Demonic Beast meat soup—all found their way into the bag. Soon, it was packed to the brim, and nothing else could fit.

"I wonder how Wang Yi is doing nowadays. Is he still as stubborn as ever?" Wang Hong muttered to himself as he sealed the Storage Bag with restrictive seals and then headed to the secret chamber.

He handed the Storage Bag to Zhang Chunfeng, instructing him to pass it on to Wang Yi.

"I happen to have a Spiritual Object here that you can take. Once you return, consume it, and it should help you reach the fifth level of Foundation Building," Wang Hong told Zhang Chunfeng.

Currently, both Wang Hong and Zhang Chunfeng were at the fourth level of Foundation Building.

Wang Hong gave him a Green Spirit Peach, and as long as his dantian wasn't as spacious as Wang Hong's, consuming it should allow him to advance one level directly.

"Thank you, Senior Brother. Take care!" Zhang Chunfeng was amazed by the efficacy of these Spiritual Objects, but since Wang Hong had recommended them, he trusted their effectiveness.

After Zhang Chunfeng left, Wang Hong secluded himself for another month before emerging.

Surprisingly, after consuming a Green Spirit Peach last time, even Little Peng had successfully advanced by one level and was now a mid-tier second-grade Spirit Beast.

The usual rate of advancement for Demonic Beasts was extremely slow, but Little Peng had advanced so quickly because it had been following Wang Hong and enjoying good food.

After tidying up the cave mansion, Wang Hong gave some instructions to Chen Nian and left the sect, heading towards Azure Void City.

Cultivation World had become chaotic, and major disruptions could occur at any time. Wang Hong needed to expedite some of his plans.
