Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1271: Chapter 432: My Name Is Ji—the Ji from Old Demon Ji! [Seeking Monthly Pass]

On this day, patches of white clouds drifted across the sky, and the brilliance of the great sun shone upon the entire Cloud Rain Island.

The sky, the earth, and the sea remained as serene as ever.

But at this moment... within the Cloud Rain Sect, Brewing Peak suddenly fell silent.

It wasn’t a deathly silence, but an awe-inspiring muteness as the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi abruptly hushed.

Initially, an extremely faint blue-golden spiritual light seeped out from Ji Yuan’s forehead, spreading out from the Mountain of Mind and Heart and flowing beyond the cave.

Where the spiritual light passed, the withered foxtail grass in the cracks of Brewing Peak’s stones pushed out fresh yellow shoots, and the frozen insects in the soil turned over and emitted subtle sounds of wriggling.

Outside the cave, the spiritual energy within a hundred miles around Cloud Rain Island began to reverse its flow.

The scattered heterogeneous spiritual energy in the mountains and forests transformed into milky white misty waves, surging towards the cave where Ji Yuan was secluded and forming a vortex tens of feet in diameter.

The vortex spun extremely slowly, as if carrying some mystical rhythm, peeling away impurities layer by layer from the spiritual energy and allowing only the Origin Power to seep into the rocks, nourishing Ji Yuan within the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

This sudden anomaly also awakened the old drunkard at the summit of Brewing Peak.

Upon sensing this spiritual energy, he was so startled that he fell off his chair, but before his body hit the ground, he transformed into an escape light and appeared above Brewing Peak.

His subconscious intent was to see where this astonishing phenomenon originated from.

But when he saw clearly, he discovered that this phenomenon actually came from... Brewing Peak!

”Such a grand and magnificent Spiritual Energy Vortex, coupled with the rhythm of the Great Dao, could it be that the Peak Master... has formed his Nascent Soul?!”

The old drunkard muttered to himself.

At the same time.

At the summit of Hundred Flowers Peak, a water-blue stream of light flashed past, manifesting the outline of Fairy Baihua. She gazed in the direction of Brewing Peak, unable to conceal her joy in her eyes.

”The manifestation of a Nascent Soul... Xu Beimu has really succeeded in forming his Nascent Soul!”

After the initial joy, Fairy Baihua took out a Communication Jade Token, infused it with her mana, and transmitted a message saying:

”Senior Brother Zhou, Xu Beimu has successfully formed his Nascent Soul!”

Even Fairy Baihua was so delighted, let alone the other Core Formation Cultivators within the Cloud Rain Sect. As they sensed this moment, only one thought filled their minds.

”Nascent Soul Formation... someone within the sect has actually succeeded in forming their Nascent Soul!”

”Is it Xu Bei... Brother Xu, or Cyan Furnace Zhenren?”

”It should be Brother Xu. As for Cyan Furnace Zhenren, I saw her earlier this year.”

”Still calling him Brother Xu, he is... Master Xu!”

”...”

Ji Yuan was unaware of the changes outside; he only felt a lightness between his brows.

He looked up, seeing a dimension-high phantom emerge at the top of his skull—not an imposing dharma image, but a young boy in simple cyan garments, eyes bearing the innocence of when he first entered the Immortal Sect, yet containing the vicissitudes of a century of arduous cultivation.

The phantom’s hands formed seals, with blue-golden spiritual light swirling around him, slowly descending as his mental method flowed.

”Within the Mountain of Mind and Heart, the Nascent Soul phenomenon can indeed be concealed.”

Looking at his still enormous Nascent Soul, Ji Yuan knew well that if he did not restrain it and exhibited it fully, the Nascent Soul phenomenon would undoubtedly be terrifying.

”Showing one’s divinity is important, but a measured steadiness brings more peace of mind.”

Even with the successful formation of his Nascent Soul, Ji Yuan did not forget his former prudence.

Thus, with a thought, he selectively released his Nascent Soul phenomenon.

At that moment, the clouds above the entire Cloud Rain Island were pushed away by an invisible force, and a blue-golden pillar of light shot skyward from Brewing Peak.

Unlike others whose Nascent Soul formations would shake the heaven and earth, this was straight as a sword, carving an ephemeral mark across the sky.

As the pillar of light withdrew, rain of light drifted down, and within it, Ji Yuan’s phantom, garbed in luxurious cyan robes, expanded to a height of hundreds of feet!

Atop Brewing Peak, his eyes shone with golden light.

His gaze swept across, causing the wild wolves in the forests to retract their fangs and bow, the birds to circle and cry, and even the Golden Cores of the Core Formation Cultivators within the Cloud Rain Sect to gently tremble within their Dantian, as if in reverence.

Three low rumbles of thunder rolled from the horizon, devoid of tribulation thunder’s fury, resembling more a song of praise from heaven and earth.

As the thunder faded, a seven-colored rainbow arched over Brewing Peak.

Outside the cave, several peach trees Ji Yuan planted in his early years suddenly bloomed and bore fruit in the mid-autumn, with petals adorned by delicate golden patterns—a mark of plants witnessing a mortal cultivator’s enlightenment without the accumulation of Treasures of Heaven and Earth, only the sediment of time.

Within the sect, a disciple at the peak of Qi Refining was wiping an alchemy room’s medicine jar, enveloped by gentle spiritual pressure, suddenly felt his Dantian heat up, and even the bottleneck of his Foundation Establishment showed a hint of loosening.

He raised his head in a daze, gazing at the distant anomaly, and involuntarily knelt and kowtowed.

Some Core Formation Stage elders looked towards Brewing Peak. When they saw Ji Yuan’s figure, their eyes were full of reverence.

They had never seen such a restrained Nascent Soul phenomenon, yet it was more convincing than any flamboyant light.

...

Dan Ding Sect.

With the manifestation of the Nascent Soul, the surrounding spiritual energy was stirred up, alerting the two Nascent Soul cultivators of the Dan Ding Sect.

Especially Master Danxu, who was at the mid-stage Nascent Soul.

”Senior Brother, someone in the Cloud Rain Sect has formed a Nascent Soul!”

Before the voice arrived, it was already heard.

Once the voice fell, a flash of fire light streaked from afar, landing and transforming into Master Dan Yang’s figure.

”Hmm, go, let’s go take a look.”

Sensing was one thing, but to see clearly, they had to be closer.

Immediately, a cyan and a red light streaked straight towards the west, and moments later, they hovered over a sea area, eyes glinting as they watched the phenomenon emanating from the direction of the Cloud Rain Sect.

”Nascent Soul formation, someone has indeed formed a Nascent Soul. So, a few years ago when the Cloud Rain Sect suddenly activated their sect’s grand array, it was for this matter.”
