Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1085: Chapter 392: Old Demon Ji and Old Demon Qiu Rampage

”Fellow cultivators, hurry! If we’re late, the Soul Hall Master might have already taken the treasure and left.”

”...”

”Haha, Elder Ji, this is exhilarating!”

Qiu Qianhai laughed loudly as he killed another late-stage Core Formation cultivator from the Black and White Divine Hall.

In the distance, the only surviving late-stage Core Formation cultivator, who barely escaped after selling out his teammates, fled frantically while cursing viciously:

”You two, Old Demon Ji, are slaughtering Core Formation cultivators so ruthlessly in Rashamon Sea. Just wait until we, the Black and White Divine Hall, hunt you down!”

”Noisy.”

Ji Yuan glanced coldly, preparing to make a move.

But then a flash of white light darted from afar, instantly sweeping in front of the Black and White Divine Hall disciple, shielding him.

The newcomer, clad in white robes and armor, appeared exceptionally valiant and spirited.

”Ji Yuan, always leave a way out for future meetings.”

Xiao Xuan’s indifferent gaze swept over Ji Yuan and Qiu Qianhai. ”I’m not interested in knowing which one of you is Ji Yuan, but let’s just say you’ve already killed enough people this time!”

Qiu Qianhai, with arms crossed over his chest, stepped forward and mocked unreservedly:

”Xun Tianji has killed quite a few as well, why don’t you go reason with him? Don’t tell me you can’t beat him?”

”Besides, if you truly think you can beat the two of us brothers, we wouldn’t mind a brawl.”

In the distance, another bout of laughter erupted, followed by a plume of black smoke descending from the sky, morphing into Xun Tianji’s figure.

”Exactly, well said!”

Xun Tianji, eager for chaos, clapped his hands upon his appearance, ”In my opinion, it’s too unsatisfying for just the two of you to fight one person. Why don’t we form three groups out of the four of us and engage in a brawl?”

”Where only one leaves alive.”

Ji Yuan remained silent, always using his divine sense to remain vigilant of his surroundings.

At this stage, just as Xiao Xuan pointed out, there were already very few Core Formation cultivators left in Rakshasa City.

Cultivator slaying cultivator, Yin Ghosts also slaying cultivators.

Those remaining had nowhere to run.

Like Mu Xueyao... Ji Yuan had no choice but to have her go to the Outer Realm first.

Many Black and White Divine Hall cultivators, possessing Yin Ghost Sect disciple identities, had also fled to the Outer Realm for safety.

As for loose cultivators, few were left.

Considering the situation before him, Ji Yuan thought of teaming up to kill Xiao Xuan, but with Xun Tianji added... he dismissed the idea, even if they managed to kill him, Xun Tianji would likely claim the credit.

Just as Ji Yuan considered stepping forward to pull Qiu Qianhai back, the voice of the Ghost Envoy suddenly resonated among the four.

”If you lot really brawl, it’d probably be quite a spectacle.”

”But, with that kid around, I don’t think a fight would break out.”

While the Ghost Envoy didn’t specifically name anyone, Ji Yuan knew it referred to him.

”Who? Lord Ghost, you might as well say it plainly, I’ll kill him first.”

Xun Tianji, confident, with arms crossed, said with a smile.

”Forget it, no good.”

The Ghost Envoy tutted.

After a brief silence, Xiao Xuan, standing atop the opposite roof, suddenly spoke up: ”Lord Ghost, now the great Yin Ghost Sect formation has been broken, and most loose cultivators are dead as well, when does the first trial of the Inner Realm end?”

”With so many fewer people, how will the next two trials proceed?”

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but give Xiao Xuan another look.

Asking this question suggested that Xiao Xuan, unlike Xun Tianji, who was just a reckless fellow, had some sense.

”I came here to discuss this with you.”

The Ghost Envoy spoke with a smile, appearing to be in a particularly good mood.

”Too many have died, beyond my expectation, so the next two trials are unnecessary, as there’s not enough manpower even if they were to begin.”

”The trial of Rakshasa City ends here.”

”Next, you exchange the treasures. After the exchange, you either leave or go to the core area, it’s up to you.”

”...”

...The trial ended just like that?!

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan was somewhat astounded.

It seemed that the number of dead and wounded cultivators in Rakshasa City indeed exceeded the Ghost Envoy’s expectations, otherwise, given its temperament, it would have wanted them all dead.

Now it seemed, very nearly everyone had indeed nearly been killed by it.

After saying this to the four, the Ghost Envoy’s voice then reverberated throughout Rakshasa City.

The content was the same: the trial is over, after exchanging treasures, leave or proceed to the core area.

Xun Tianji withdrew his gaze and looked at the three once more, ”How about it? You’re planning to go to the core area, right?”

”Going. The resources truly aiding Nascent Soul Formation are in the core area. This is just child’s play.”

Xiao Xuan, without hesitation, blurted out.

”And you?”

Xun Tianji turned his head to Ji Yuan and Qiu Qianhai.

”Going.”

Ji Yuan coldly uttered a word.

”Alright, see you in the core area then,” Xun Tianji smiled, ”But let it be known, in the core area, it will be to differentiate the strong from the weak, and settle life and death.”

After that, he took out an identity Jade, injected his mana, and disappeared immediately.

Ji Yuan and Xiao Xuan exchanged a glance.

”Let’s go!”

Ji Yuan said, then left, flying backward with Qiu Qianhai, and Xiao Xuan followed suit.

”Let’s find a place to exchange treasures first, then discuss and head to the core area,” Ji Yuan transmitted.

”Alright.”

The two immediately nearby found themselves at a two-story tavern. Qiu Qianhai, with nothing holding him back, pushed the door and entered, barely perceiving traces of fights between Yin Ghosts and cultivators, and the treasures had long been taken.
