Chapter 224: Trial

Chapter 224: Trial

"Senior Wang, this type of stone appears to be Earthen Yellow Stone, but I have only read about it in ancient texts and have never seen it in person, so I can't be certain," the middle-aged Cultivator said.

"Then what is its use? Can it be used for refining Spiritual Weapons?" Senior Wang inquired.

"In response to Senior, if it is indeed Earthen Yellow Stone, it can be used for refining tools, particularly suitable for refining hammers, seals, bricks, rods, and similar Spiritual Weapons," the middle-aged Cultivator replied without hesitation.

Senior Wang pondered for a moment and felt that his current Spiritual Weapons were sufficient; he didn't currently have a need for it.

He had many Body Cultivators under his command, and perhaps they would have a use for it in the future, making it a potential reward.

"Never mind, I won't be refining it this time. Maybe next time. Take this bottle of Pill as your reward," Wang Hong said, tossing a bottle of Pill to the middle-aged Cultivator. In situations like this, even if no reward was offered, nobody would complain.

However, Wang Hong was not interested in taking advantage of others; he had no need for such small gains.

"Thank you, Senior!" the middle-aged Cultivator gratefully exclaimed. He knew that this Senior was a renowned second-tier Alchemist, so the Pills he provided would certainly be of good quality.

After Wang Hong departed, he opened the Pill bottle and poured out three high-quality Condensing Qi Pills, causing him to be ecstatic. Such high-quality Pills were not easy to come by, even with Spirit Stones.

Due to Wang Hong's improvement in Alchemy skills, most of the Pills he refined now were of high quality, with only a few being top-quality or lower-quality Pills.

This made it difficult for him to refine lower-quality Pills for sale.New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

Back at home, Wang Hong resumed the process of cooking the flesh of the second-tier Demonic Beasts he had acquired.

Now that he had a Spiritual Weapon-level Alchemy Furnace, his previous large Alchemy Furnace had become a pot for stewing meat.

Wang Hong then took out the meat, which was now soaked in the soup, and cut it into small pieces. He proceeded to slowly dry it with Spirit Fire, making it a convenient and delicious snack.

He repeated this process for the remaining hundred-plus second-tier Demonic Beasts, creating a unique and flavorful treat. As he enjoyed the dried meat, he couldn't help but praise his culinary skills.

Wang Hong stored all the prepared dried meat and soup in his spatial storage.

While savoring his dried meat and sipping on Spirit Wine, Yin Ze came to pay him a visit. Since deciding to follow Wang Hong and returning to Boundary City, Yin Ze had been visiting him regularly, hoping to be assigned some tasks.

However, Wang Hong was in Boundary City to complete his cultivation mission and didn't have much for him to do. Nevertheless, when Yin Ze came this time, Wang Hong decided to find something for him to work on.

The best way to judge someone's character is to give them tasks. Only through the process of working can a person's true qualities be revealed.

"Yin Ze, I want to open a Spiritual Herb shop here in Boundary City. Do you have the confidence to manage it?" Wang Hong asked.

As an Alchemist, it made sense for Wang Hong to have a shop to purchase Spiritual Herbs and sell finished Pills through his subordinates.

"I can only say that I will give it my all, even if it means giving my life," Yin Ze replied in a way that suggested he lacked confidence.

However, Wang Hong was not worried about whether he could do it well or not, and he didn't mind a small loss. The main purpose was to see if Yin Ze could handle significant responsibilities and whether he could be trusted. It was a test for Yin Ze.

"Very well, if that's the case, find a suitable storefront, rent it, and start preparing to open the Spiritual Herb shop. I'll leave all the details to you," Wang Hong said, handing over the task to Yin Ze.

Ten days later, Yin Ze found a total of five available storefronts. He didn't want to make the decision on his own, so he returned to seek Wang Hong's guidance. Following Yin Ze's lead, Wang Hong walked towards the city's streets to make the final selection.
