The second day after the Fortress Siege Battle.
Evening.
Expansion Zone C outside Fortress No. 76 in the Ancient Basin.
Rhythmic hammering rang out once more from Ling Tong's temporary Supply Station.
The diligent Daoist Wang finished this round of cultivation, taking a firm step toward the middle stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm.
At this stage, he was not lacking crystal cores for the time being. He only needed to continue strengthening his spiritual awareness, consolidating his soul, and tempering his Dao body. In less than half a month, he would reach the middle stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm!
Under the current conditions, the best way to temper his Dao body was naturally...
Blacksmithing.
Two massive furnaces taller than a person roared with flames. A thick iron anvil and heavy hammer, hastily made using high-precision machine tools, were forging a Sword Embryo.
Wang Jixuan was exploring ways to mass-produce Demon-Breaking Daggers while also making Ling Tong a weapon for self-defense.
After this battle, Daoist Wang had gained a direct understanding of the strength of Blade Beast shells and an intuitive grasp of humanity's firepower. He roughly understood the weaknesses of both.
Moreover, Wang Jixuan was becoming increasingly confident in his combat strength after entering the Golden Core Realm.
I wonder whether that young man was encouraged by me. Those really were the feelings I gained from this second life, but...
Having crystal cores feels great!
Not having crystal cores feels terrible.
As long as you don't die, you can always become immortal. Living is the foundation of everything!
Daoist Wang stopped hammering, wiped the hot sweat from his forehead with his arm, wrapped the Sword Embryo in spiritual energy, and lifted it into a nearby bucket for cold quenching.
With a hiss, white mist instantly filled the workshop.
