Chapter 642: Jiang Ming's Current Situation, The Marvels of the Cangwu Space (First Update)

Afterward, Jiang Daoxuan retracted the Mother Qi of All Things Cauldron.

His eyes flickered with light, and he felt nothing short of overjoyed!

He had not expected that, after fusing three pieces of divine iron today, he would still encounter such a stroke of fortune.

Not only had the might of the Mother Qi of All Things Cauldron been enhanced, but his physical body had also been improved along the way.

Moreover, driven by the Zhou Tian Star Scripture, he took the final step in one stroke and smoothly ascended to the Ten Thousand Phenomena realm!

For him, all of these were unexpected joys.

Jiang Daoxuan smiled, then gathered his thoughts.

He thought of the Array Saint inheritance within the cave-heaven small world.

He immediately swept his Grand Yin spiritual sense outward, spreading it in all directions to shroud the entire Cangwu Mountain, seeking to find any trace of Jiang Ming!

However, after scanning a full circle, he found no trace of the other party.

A look of realization crossed Jiang Daoxuan's eyes; he figured the other party must be outside the mountain.

Thus, he took out the Cangwu Token, found Jiang Ming's contact method, and prepared to send a message, summoning the other party back for a visit.

Meanwhile.

Tiandou Prefecture, Forest of Death.

This place lay within the borders of Tiandou Prefecture—a forbidden ground that countless cultivators avoided, a name that made them turn pale at the mere mention!

In terms of danger, it ranked among the top three throughout all of Tiandou Prefecture!

Its fearsome reputation was such that many cultivators in the surrounding several prefectures had heard whispers of it.

And within the Forest of Death, not only was the environment harsh, but the number of fierce beasts was also extremely high!

Even at the outermost fringe, there existed many fierce beasts of the Innate realm, and even of the Purple Mansion realm.

The inner perimeter was rife with fierce beasts of the Sea of Yuan realm, and even the Star Wheel realm!

And in the deepest core region, even powerful fierce beasts of the Moon Wheel realm could be glimpsed in passing!

Needless to say, rumors had it that overlord-class fierce beasts of the Sun Wheel realm were also stationed within!

Precisely because of this, even the former Prefecture Lord Sima Nan did not dare to venture deep within!

However, beyond the danger, there were also considerable opportunities.

The number of precious medicines far exceeded that of the outside, and the hides, blood, and flesh of fierce beasts were all treasures.

And at this moment, at the very deepest part of the Forest of Death—a place countless cultivators avoided—

There stood a youth clad in black tight-fitting attire, brimming with heroic spirit!

He held a long spear in his hand, and a sharp, peerless aura surged from his entire body!

Yuan force and spear intent intertwined, emitting bursts of rumbling sounds, then transforming into a silver dragon with an illusory body that roared across heaven and earth, swept all around, and splashed blood in every direction!

Soon, beneath his feet piled up fierce beast corpses like a small mountain.

Countless streams of crimson blood, still steaming, gathered together to form rivers that flowed all around.

The air was filled with a thick, overwhelming, and nauseating stench of blood!

Astonishing baleful aura swirled here, spreading outward, causing all fierce beasts within a radius of ten li to sense immense danger and not dare approach even half a step.

The youth's location had become a forbidden zone within a forbidden zone, forcing all surrounding fierce beasts to choose to keep their distance!

Seeing that everything around had become utterly deathly still,

Jiang Ming took a deep breath and slowly sheathed his long spear.

He turned his head to look at the fierce beast corpses before him, and a hint of reminiscence surfaced in his eyes.

Two months ago, after his own strength had reached a certain level, enabling him to easily sweep through the fierce beasts near Cangwu Mountain—

In order to hone his martial techniques, gain practical combat experience, and moreover to use the gray-white Shi Zhu to plunder the essence, qi, and spirit of powerful fierce beasts, converting them into purple qi to help him temper his physical body and accelerate his cultivation speed—

He left the bounds of Cangwu Mountain that very day and began to roam freely within the borders of Tiandou Prefecture!

Those death zones that were extremely perilous for ordinary people were, for him, every one of them a blessed land!

Within these two months, he had ventured through all of the top three death zones!

And now, the Forest of Death was the last one!

Jiang Ming walked to the side of a fierce beast's corpse.

Among these fierce beasts he had slain, there were as many as three of the Moon Wheel realm alone!

There was even one of the Sun Wheel realm!

Had those Sun Wheel realm fierce beasts not seen that the situation was wrong and, taking advantage of him being entangled with the other fierce beasts, chosen to flee—

They would likely have all perished under his long spear as well!

However, going forward, things would be a bit troublesome.

After this great slaughter, the Forest of Death probably held no great use for him anymore.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming could not help feeling a touch of regret.

He naturally understood that those fierce beasts possessing spiritual intelligence had probably long been scared out of their wits by him.

They would certainly not dare come looking for trouble with him, and would only choose to flee and hide elsewhere.

And the remaining low-level fierce beasts could hardly be of much use to him.

"If I want to maintain my current rate of improvement, I can only go venture in other prefectures........"

Jiang Ming murmured.

He then lowered his head, feeling the tremendous power contained within his body, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes!

Within these two months of tempering—

Relying on his own efforts, he had successfully used the Cangwu Token's 【Family Treasure Vault】 function to upgrade the magic treasure long spear in his hand from its original Profound Grade Supreme to Earth Grade Superior.

His own cultivation base had also advanced by leaps and bounds.

Under the dual effects of the grey-white Shi Zhu and the True Wu Qi Scripture, he broke through in one stroke to the second layer of the Moon Wheel realm!

His own spear-path talent was further developed, advancing at a terrifying pace, and he smoothly grasped the complete Spear Intent!

Now, he was only a single step away from comprehending the Spear Heart and advancing to Spear Marquis!

Aside from his cultivation base.

Under the influence of the memories of that Artifact Saint within the six-sided stone, he raised his own artifact-path realm to that of a mid-grade two-pattern Artifact Refiner, capable of forging mid-grade Profound-rank magic treasures!

Afterwards, Jiang Ming gathered his thoughts and began to activate the grey-white Shi Zhu within his body, plundering the essence, qi, and spirit from the corpses of these fierce beasts, turning them into wisps of purple qi stored within the grey-white Shi Zhu!

Under the irrigation of the purple qi, his cultivation speed suddenly skyrocketed.

The pores all over his body opened wide, beginning to frantically absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth!

In just a few breaths, a spiritual energy storm formed, enveloping Jiang Ming within it!

The realm that had already been only a final kick away instantly broke through, reaching the third layer of the Moon Wheel realm!

Realizing he still needed some time to digest before he could absorb this purple qi again.

Jiang Ming looked around once more, took out the Cangwu Token, and stored all these corpses into the storage space of the Cangwu Token!

Right after, he gazed at the fierce beast corpses lying everywhere within the space, and a smile could not help but surface on his face.

"Cangwu Token? This truly is a fine treasure. I wonder just where the Clan Chief got it from, and how he came to have so many of them — it's truly rather baffling…"

Jiang Ming tightened his grip on the Cangwu Token in his hand, unable to hold back a burst of exclamation.

The storage space of this Cangwu Token was not only extremely vast, far surpassing a spatial ring.

Moreover, as he had discovered, it possessed another terrifying ability!

That was, once an item was stored within, it would not undergo any decay whatsoever!

As if the power of any passing years could not exert its influence upon it!
