Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1301: Chapter 439: ”The Killer Is the Master of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner!

Nothing more.

”You’ve come this far and only now think to beg for mercy? Don’t you feel it’s a bit too late?!”

Ji Yuan sneered.

Vulture Ascendant still wanted to speak and argue.

But Ji Yuan did not give him another chance to speak.

”The Extreme Abyss is perilous. Fellow Daoist, why don’t you take refuge in my Human Emperor Banner?”

After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he swiftly wielded the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, capturing Vulture Ascendant’s Yin Soul within the Soul Banner. Soon, the Nascent Soul dominant soul inside, along with numerous Yin Souls, began teaching him how to become a ghost.

Ji Yuan then put away the Ten Thousand Souls Banner into his Storage Bag, took a step forward, and arrived next to Vulture Ascendant’s corpse. Looking at the intact corpse, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

In this manner, the most challenging condition for upgrading the Chaotic Burial Mound was basically met.

Alongside encountering this Storage Bag...what a treasure!

Ji Yuan raised his hand, collecting both items. Then he found the fragmented Cyan Patterned Ruler nearby, along with the nearly useless Sharp Eye Mirror.

A bit unfortunate, especially this Cyan Patterned Ruler.

After all, it was a Lifebound Magical Treasure of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Even if I don’t use it, it can be exchanged for quite a few good things at the Nascent Soul Trading Conference.

As for now, it can only be treated as miscellaneous items.

Once the battlefield was cleaned up, Ji Yuan paid no further attention to the ruined battlefield and even deliberately carved words onto a giant rock.

”The killer: Master of Ten Thousand Souls Banner!”

After carving these words, Ji Yuan transformed into an Escape Light, heading straight west.

”Master, this PWoang Divine Eyes probably has mid-stage Nascent Soul level strength, right?”

In Ji Yuan’s Sea of Consciousness, Tu Yue asked softly.

”Indeed.”

Ji Yuan affirmed, without any doubt.

One strike consumed all the mana within his Dantian, and if this wasn’t up to mid-stage Nascent Soul level...Ji Yuan wouldn’t believe it even if beaten to death.

”So, with the PWoang Divine Eyes and the flames inside the Purple Gold Gourd,”

Tu Yue counted on her fingers: ”Master, you have two mid-stage Nascent Soul attack methods, plus the Purple Sky Divine Thunder. If fully activated, it surely has mid-stage Nascent Soul strength as well...wow, master, you are so strong!”

”Between you and me, there’s no need for flattering words.”

Ji Yuan said, flipping his right hand, revealing a small ebony hairpin, one inch long, with a dark hue, light in weight.

”Oh, what’s this?”

Tu Yue asked curiously.

”I wondered why this old thief’s Divine Soul was a bit stronger than others. Turns out there’s this treasure.”

”Master, you mean this magical treasure can nourish Divine Soul?”

”Yes.”

With mana infused, Ji Yuan slightly refined it and learned about this ebony hairpin.

This magical treasure is called ”Ebony Nourishing Soul Hairpin”, and its function is to nourish the Divine Soul day and night once worn. Its effect is somewhat similar to the Soul Suppressing Bell, but not as strong.

Additionally, this Ebony Nourishing Soul Hairpin has another function.

When the Divine Soul is attacked, it can release a ”Black Light Shield” to resist part of the Divine Soul attack.

This effect...to be honest, would rank as top-notch in other continents, capable of resisting Divine Soul attacks. It’s definitely considered a great treasure.

But in Jiyuan Continent, there aren’t even many who attack the Divine Soul.

Not to mention defending against Divine Soul attacks.

”The thing is great, and suits me well, so now it’s mine!”

With mana infused, Ji Yuan quickly refined it, then used a Blinding Technique to change the ebony hairpin into a jade hairpin, and finally inserted it into his hair.

Immediately, he felt a cool sensation emanating from the ebony hairpin, sweeping away the fatigue from the prior Magical Combat.

”Master, where are we headed now? Should we fly directly to West Border City from here?”

”It’s too far. Flying from here, even for a Nascent Soul cultivator, it might take half a year.” Ji Yuan shook his head and said, ”Let’s head west for a distance, then return to Lindong City, take the Teleportation Array, and inform Wenjiu of the matter.”

”Okay.”

”...”

Black and White City, Black and White Divine Mountain, Black and White Divine Hall.

A scarlet light streak swiftly pierces through layers of clouds, landing straight at the entrance of the Black and White Divine Hall, transforming into the figure of a red-bearded elder.

But before he could enter the hall, a calm and stern voice came from within.

”Already a Nascent Soul cultivator, yet still so hurried and flustered, what kind of decorum is this?”

The red-bearded Zhenren, despite hearing Elder Hei’s reprimand, still barged into the hall, then cupped his hands towards the figure on the high platform, saying:

”Great Elder, we have a Nascent Soul cultivator dead on our side.”

”What?!”

Elder Hei, who was just very calm, immediately set down the Jade Scroll in his hand and asked, ”Who?”

”Vulture Ascendant!”

The red-bearded Zhenren cupped his hands in reply.

”It’s him...” Elder Hei, who was just on the high platform, stepped down to the red-bearded Zhenren’s side, ”Wasn’t he staying on Vulture Peak?”

”How could he suddenly fall?”

”I don’t know, I just received a transmission from cultivators in the Nascent Soul Hall saying Vulture Ascendant’s Soul Lamp suddenly went out when I was on duty, and upon checking, found it true.”

After the red-bearded Zhenren finished speaking, Elder Hei released his Divine Sense, sweeping over the Nascent Soul Hall.

As a result, he found that amidst the burning Soul Lamps, indeed one was extinguished, and beneath that Soul Lamp was a small line of writing.

”Vulture Ascendant.”

”Come, you and I will go check out Vulture Peak.”

After Elder Hei spoke, he directly transformed into an Escape Light, heading straight north.

It’s impossible to hide the news of a Nascent Soul cultivator’s fall in the Black and White Divine Hall, especially when the Soul Lamp in the Nascent Soul Hall is extinguished.
