Chapter 14 - betrayal

Once the excitement wore off, I began to investigate and found the story behind this space. This was a space artifact, made by a Mahayana cultivator who was a casual cultivator and also one of the best weapon refiners of his time. He found a space stone in a secret realm—space stones are rare even in the Immortal World, let alone a cultivation world. He was incredibly lucky to find it. As he also possessed some knowledge of the Laws of Time and Space, he used it to create his masterpiece: this space artifact.

When he had just completed his masterpiece and wanted to tell his apprentice about it, he called him over. He first asked about his practice, and the apprentice served him a cup of tea. While drinking, the master began to talk, but just as he was about to tell him about the space artifact, he felt his spiritual power vanish. His most trusted apprentice had stabbed him in the Dantian.

"Sorry, Master," his apprentice said. "It's all because of you. If you had given that spiritual weapon to the sect, this would never have happened. I also need a powerful backing. The sect promised me that if I brought them that spiritual weapon, they would accept me."

The apprentice used the dagger many times until the Dantian was completely damaged. The weapon refiner master had lost all his cultivation. Thinking his master was dead, the apprentice took the spiritual weapon—for which he had betrayed his master—along with the master's storage space and other materials from the house. However, he did not take the insignificant pendant from his master's neck.
