Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 876: Chapter 351: Heaven-defying Fate Alteration [Void Teleportation]

But the current Bone Nightmare Sect... ever since the Bone Nightmare Old Demon came to power, they’ve been using people and then disposing of them, it’s truly vile!

”What, can’t you produce it?”

Ji Yuan retorted.

”No, no, we can produce it, should we make the transaction now, or how... our Zhou Family is fine with either.” Zhou Jin hurriedly said.

If they could obtain these five hundred thousand mid-grade Spirit Stones, their Zhou Family’s current situation would certainly improve significantly.

”If you can produce it, then let’s do the transaction now.”

Ji Yuan had already prepared all the Spirit Stones before setting off, so hearing this, he took out a Storage Bag and tossed it onto the table.

Five hundred thousand Spirit Stones, thrown as casually as if it were trash.

”Alright, count them.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jin released his Divine Sense and infiltrated the Storage Bag. When he saw the boxes piled high with mid-grade Spirit Stones, he was somewhat startled. Especially since he discovered that the vast majority of these Spirit Stones were brand new, without a single trace of usage or Spiritual Qi leakage.

He realized then that this Li Chengeng before him definitely came from the Eight Holy Lands!

Because these Spirit Stones were clearly just mined from a Spirit Vein and hadn’t circulated through the hands of any cultivator. Other than the Eight Holy Lands and the Black and White Divine Hall, Zhou Jin couldn’t think of any other possibility.

And most likely, it was the Celestial Tools Valley, as they were the ones most likely to need these Void Nether Stones for Artifact Refining.

A moment later, Zhou Jin also took out a Storage Bag and placed it solemnly on the table.

Parallel to the Storage Bag placed by Ji Yuan.

”Fifty pounds of Void Nether Stones, all within here, please inspect, Fellow Daoist.”

Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense quickly swept over to ascertain its authenticity. Knowing these Void Nether Stones wouldn’t remain in his possession for long, he wasn’t worried.

”Alright, deal.”

As the words fell, Ji Yuan took away the Storage Bag containing the Void Nether Stones, while the other bag filled with Spirit Stones ended up in Zhou Jin’s hand.

Both of them heaved a sigh of relief.

The Spirit Stones in hand came unexpectedly smoothly, without any mention of credit or partial payment, making Zhou Jin quite pleased. Even looking at this Old Demon in front of him again, his gaze had become much kinder.

”If you need more of these Void Nether Stones in the future, just send me a Communication Talisman, and we can conduct the transaction here again.”

Zhou Jin said this as he handed over a Golden Communication Talisman.

Ji Yuan accepted and casually put it away, ”Alright, I’ll contact you when the time comes.”

Zhou Jin glanced at the door and smiled, ”It’s still early, why not find a place and have some fun together?”

”No, the sect has matters to attend to, I need to return.”

Ji Yuan said this as he rose and headed towards the door.

”Then let me see you off, Fellow Daoist.”

Upon entering earlier, they had walked through the side of the tavern, but now, upon exiting, they openly walked through this high-rise.

Ji Yuan took a few more looks; this was an Elixir shop named ’Xuandan Square.’

So, this Zhou Family specializes in Alchemy?

Ji Yuan speculated, then transformed into Escape Light and flew away. Behind him, Zhou Jin leaned against the doorway on the second floor, hands tucked in his sleeves, watching the Escape Light fade into the distance.

’Li Chengeng, Eight Holy Lands, I wonder which one.’

’Forget it, since father has already decided, there’s no point in thinking about it further.’

As Zhou Jin pondered, shaking his head, he too transformed into Escape Light and headed straight for the northern part of the city.

When Ji Yuan returned to the southern part of the city, he didn’t head straight to his own Cave Mansion. Instead, after changing his Transformation Talisman and casting the Concealing Breath Spell, he arrived at another Cave Mansion with the guise of a Fake Pill.

This was the preparation he had made before leaving.

Having previously faced Mei Manor, Ji Yuan was wary that these Void Nether Stones might have issues too, so after acquiring them, finding a place to use them as soon as possible was the best strategy.

Even if these Void Nether Stones had some tracking method on them, it would be impossible to trace his actual location once they were used.

After taking a Flying Boat to this Cave Mansion, Ji Yuan unleashed the Upside-Down Rivers and Lakes Array.

On the way to this Cave Mansion, he had already planned which buildings to house with the fifty pounds of Void Nether Stones.

Structures like the Meditation Room and Spirit Field, single purchase deals, were definitely out of the question.

Obtaining fifty pounds of Void Nether Stones wasn’t easy; using them on just one building would be too much of a loss.

Ji Yuan chose three buildings.

The Pigsty, Fish Pond, and Wine Cellar.

The price for housing the Fish Pond and Pigsty was twenty pounds of Void Nether Stones each.

The Wine Cellar cost ten pounds.

Altogether, it perfectly matched the fifty pounds.

Moreover, Ji Yuan frequently used these three buildings.

The Pigsty and Fish Pond were essential.

Their outputs were items Ji Yuan urgently needed, and once the Fish Pond was housed within the Mountain of Mind and Heart, the two Frost Serpents wouldn’t need to stay inside the Spirit Beast Bag anymore; they could freely move within the Fish Pond instead.

Similarly, the Wine Cellar, if carried around, would make the brewing of Spirit Wine much more convenient for Ji Yuan.

By then, the Nine Nether Burning Life Brew could also be created sooner.

Having made his selections, Ji Yuan deployed these three structures within the temporarily rented Cave Mansion.

The Fish Pond and Wine Cellar were the simplest.

The Fish Pond, being a common fixture in most Cave Mansions, only required Ji Yuan to place a few fish inside.

The Wine Cellar was even easier, as Ji Yuan merely had to take the Spirit Wine from the Storage Bag and place it inside,

and that building was complete.

Only the Pigsty proved slightly troublesome. Eventually, Ji Yuan had to visit a shop in the city selling Spirit Pigs to purchase a few piglets.

Only then was he able to activate the Pigsty building again.

Once everything was ready, three days had passed.

Ji Yuan returned to the Cave Mansion and took out the fifty pounds of Void Nether Stones, then summoned the Mountain of Mind and Heart from his Dantian.

First, it was just a flash of Spiritual Light, but by the time it flew to Ji Yuan’s side, it had transformed into a tiny palm-sized mountain.

It spun endlessly over the pile of Void Nether Stones.

With a thought, Ji Yuan chose to house the buildings.

In an instant, a layer upon layer of space appeared in his mind, representing the interior of the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

There were five layers in total.

Currently, Ji Yuan had only housed three buildings.

The Chicken Cage was on the first layer, which was the bottom, while the Cave Mansion and Spirit Vein were on the third layer.

Ji Yuan first selected the Fish Pond, intending to house it.

Twenty pounds of Void Nether Stones suddenly flew up and were absorbed by the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

Subsequently, an illuminated building appeared in Ji Yuan’s mind, capable of moving according to his heart’s desire, allowing him to place it wherever he wanted.

Naturally, the Fish Pond was to be located on the third layer, just in front of the Cave Mansion, where he could fish for True Dragons after tiring from cultivation.

As for the Pigsty, it had to be placed on the very bottom layer, right next to the Chicken Cage was ideal.

The remaining Wine Cellar was meant for the second layer.

Placed beneath the Cave Mansion, allowing him to leisurely visit the underground Wine Cellar to fetch a few jugs of Heart’s Desire Wine when he had time to spare, enjoying a few sips.

Wouldn’t that life be wonderful?

After housing these three buildings, Ji Yuan noticed a subtle change in his Lifebound Magical Treasure.
