Chapter 53: Dragon Serpent Escape

Chapter 53: Dragon Serpent Escape

Wang Hong entered the Space. Over the years, due to the expansion of the Space, various spirit fruits and herbs bloomed one after another.

The swarm of Spirit Bees he raised had now reached over thirty thousand. Additionally, there was a considerable amount of Spirit Bee Honey stored.

As Spirit Bees had no natural enemies in the Space, among the thirty thousand Spirit Bees, only five thousand were combat-capable drones. The rest were worker bees.

Wang Hong issued orders to the Bee Queen, instructing it to focus on producing combat-capable drones in the future.

In case of insufficient food like nectar, they could use the stored Spirit Bee Honey.

While individual Spirit Bees were of a low tier and easily killed, their strength lied in their sheer numbers.

With a sufficient quantity, even a Golden Core cultivator would be intimidated, let alone someone at the Foundation Building stage.

Unfortunately, the Spirit Blossom quantity in his Space was limited, enough to sustain only fifty thousand Spirit Bees at most.

By reducing the number of idle male bees, he managed to save some Spirit Bee Honey.

Upon receiving the command, the Bee Queen, with its large abdomen, began moving around the hive.

Each hole left behind sesame-sized white dots, indicating bee eggs that would take a year to hatch into Spirit Bees.

After arranging the matters concerning the Spirit Bees, Wang Hong once again ascended to the second floor of the Myriad Treasures Tower. However, he could only purchase a second-tier Talisman, leaving him somewhat disappointed.

Second-tier Talismans could only be crafted by Foundation Building cultivators and could directly harm or even kill Foundation Building cultivators.

The materials for crafting such talismans were precious, and usually, cultivators kept them for personal use or exchange. As a result, there were very few second-tier Talismans circulating in the market.

If he could buy a substantial number of second-tier Talismans with Spirit Stones, Wang Hong would sell even his pants to purchase them for self-defense. Why fear Foundation Building cultivators then?

Wang Hong had also heard of something called "Symbolic Treasures" that had tremendous power, some even capable of directly killing Foundation Building cultivators.

However, these legendary treasures were something he had never seen, and he wasn't sure if the legends were true.

Wang Hong visited several shops, managing to buy a second-tier Fire Dragon Talisman and two low-grade defensive Spiritual Weapons.

This cost him tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, making him deeply regret losing a plot of land.

He found He Yuan's residence, handed him a Spiritual Weapon, a few bottles of Spirit Wine, gave some instructions, and left.

He Yuan stood there in shock. This was a Spiritual Weapon; their family, despite having several Foundation Building cultivators, only had a few Spiritual Weapons.

Back then, despite receiving attention from the family, he never received any additional Spiritual Weapons for self-defense.

He could already move a distance of two yards, but it seemed lacking in leverage points in the air, causing him to fall after just one yard.

He needed to figure out how to move the Windsoar Boat along, or he'd keep falling.

The simplest method was to, after using "shifting positions," hold onto the Windsoar Boat with one hand. However, this would be inconvenient in battle.

Wang Hong got back on the Windsoar Boat, this time releasing a small amount of Spiritual Energy that wrapped around the boat.

Then, using "shifting positions," he moved to the side while injecting a significant amount of Spiritual Energy into the boat. This time, the speed increased slightly, drifting seven to eight feet before stopping.

No longer falling down, but the slow speed wasn't helpful in combat.

Sitting on the ground, Wang Hong contemplated for a while, then suddenly stood up, getting back on the Windsoar Boat. Again, he released a small amount of Spiritual Energy, winding it around the boat.

While using "shifting positions," he simultaneously infused a large amount of Spiritual Energy into the Windsoar Boat from his feet. This time, the speed increased a bit more, drifting about eight feet.

"Hmm, better, but still not enough," Wang Hong was not entirely satisfied; he needed to improve further.

In the following days, he tried various methods, encountered problems, and found solutions.

A month later, Wang Hong, controlling the Windsoar Boat, swiftly flew forward in the air. Suddenly, his figure flickered, and he, along with the boat, moved to the right, drifting horizontally over eight feet.

Then, he drifted forward another eight feet, took a sip of Spirit Wine, and continued flying forward, interspersed with some rapid drifting and changes in direction.

This created a trajectory of unpredictable speed and direction, like a dancing spirit snake, difficult to predict.

Wang Hong, after much effort, finally managed to use "shifting positions" in the air.

The speed was slightly faster than using it on the ground, covering a distance of just over eight feet. However, the Spiritual Energy consumption was immense, depleting one-third of his internal Spiritual Energy in one attempt.

Thus, he needed to continuously replenish Spiritual Energy with Spirit Wine during flight.

With the modifications to "shifting positions," coupled with the Windsoar Boat, he could now maneuver left, right, forward, and backward in the air.

Like a soaring dragon, agile and unpredictable.

He named this aerial flying technique "Dragon Serpent Escape."

In truth, true escape methods could only be formally mastered in the Golden Core stage and were then called escape methods.

Though Foundation Building cultivators could fly, they still required external objects like Flying Swords for airborne movement.

Currently, he hadn't even touched the edge of escape methods; it was just a name for now.
