Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 360: Chapter 192: The Matter Settled

”Swoosh——”

A faint sound echoed.

He noticed the Talisman on his body was broken, and immediately the protective Spiritual Artifact he wore followed suit.

Under the activation of the Spirit Robe, ghostly aura loomed.

Yet even so, it only held for an instant.

Pain.

Piercing pain radiated from his forehead.

Before dying, Yin Tongzi blinked, finally realizing that the streak of sword light before him had actually split into two Flying Swords.

Die!

The Canglan Sword Embryo instantly pierced through Yin Tongzi’s defenses, entering through his forehead, obliterating his Divine Soul while twisting his brain into mush.

Ji Yuan initially intended to directly blow his head apart.

But on second thought, the body could still be thrown into the Chaotic Burial Mound, so he abandoned that idea.

If the brain is blasted, it would be wasted.

If the brain isn’t broken, it can still be used.

After instantly killing him, Ji Yuan first collected the corpse along with the Storage Bag and Spiritual Artifacts.

Then he dispersed the enhancement effect of the Blood Marrow Pearl.

He then hastily activated the Concealing Breath Spell again, lowering his cultivation level to the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

Though the earlier burst might have been noticed by some.

Surely, though, some wouldn’t have noticed.

So if caution can be exercised, it’s best to be cautious.

After killing Yin Tongzi, Ji Yuan also retrieved the Yin Ghost.

As for the Human Skin Puppet, with Yin Tongzi’s death, it was also dead, leaving only a piece of human skin.

Following the principle of nothing going to waste, Ji Yuan collected it too.

Lastly, he quickly left the area, not daring to look back until he reached another deserted forest.

By then, a considerable time had passed since the Blood Demon killed the first person.

It was long gone from its original spot, but it didn’t hunt other Foundation Establishment cultivators either. As Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense swept over the battlefield, he found it had only killed the three Divine Eagle Palace cultivators, then went to... Divine Eagle Palace.

All the Foundation Establishment cultivators had already been held back, so the one with the highest cultivation in the current Divine Eagle Palace was just at the Peak of Qi Refining.

To a Blood Demon who could kill mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators with ease, these Qi Cultivation cultivators were like ants.

So the current situation at Divine Eagle Palace was a one-sided massacre!

Blood splattered everywhere, and gnawed, broken corpses were casually discarded.

Ji Yuan even noticed that all the hearts on the Blood Demon seemed to come alive, pulsating as if devouring the blood.

Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense swept across the entire Divine Eagle Palace, finally summing it up in four words.

A human inferno.

This Blood Demon is terribly brutal!

On another front, the fiercest battle belonged to the two Fake Pill Realm cultivators. Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense didn’t dare get close, only watching from afar with the naked eye.

A small mountain was shattered into pieces, and deep trenches were plowed into the ground.

The black mist surrounding the Wailing Wanderer dissipated significantly, while the Divine Eagle Palace Master was forced to dodge repeatedly.

It seemed the Wailing Wanderer had the upper hand.

Especially since once the Blood Demon began slaughtering everything, it threw the Divine Eagle Palace Master into disarray.

After being caught by the Wailing Wanderer several times, it was hard to regain the advantage.

If one were to run now... perhaps there’s still time.

Among the remaining Foundation Establishment cultivators, only Ye Zhiqiu had dealt with her opponent. However, unlike Ji Yuan, she didn’t remain at the scene to spectate. Instead, she joined forces with Lu Ping to take on Chen Mo.

Two against one, even with the assistance of that Tier Two demon dog, Chen Mo was being driven back again and again.

Judging by the situation, as long as they persisted, even if the Blood Demon didn’t intervene, the Great Love Sect would win.

Ji Yuan, preparing a Talisman Treasure escape artifact in his Storage Bag with his Divine Sense, was ready to flee at any moment, but it certainly wasn’t time to run just yet.

The remaining Ghostglow Locustwood hadn’t been obtained. After breaking open Yin Tongzi’s Storage Bag, he scanned it with his Divine Sense. While there were plenty of Yin objects inside, there was no Ghostglow Locustwood.

Therefore, he had to wait for the Wailing Wanderer to provide it.

”Qiu, Brother Qiu, come lend a hand.”

Just as Ji Yuan was engrossed in the spectacle, he suddenly received a sound transmission from Deng Pinghai.

He glanced at the swamp below the mountain.

The battlefield where Deng Pinghai was engaged lay even further away. His opponent was an elderly woman wearing a conical hat, hunched over, walking barefoot on the swamp like a menacing ghost.

Though Deng Pinghai held the advantage, truly subduing his opponent would require considerable effort.

Injury was an inevitable thing.

So seeing Ji Yuan had finished off his opponent, Deng Pinghai called out with a sound transmission.

If Ji Yuan were willing to come over, even the help of an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would be welcome.

Ji Yuan hesitated briefly, then reversed his Qi and Blood, inflicting a minor injury on himself before piloting the Flying Boat in a dive, shouting angrily along the way.

”Brother Deng, don’t panic, Qiu Qianhai is on his way!!”

His strength might not be formidable, but his presence was imposing.

Upon hearing this, the elderly woman on the opposite side looked up, seeing a burly man with ghostly aura fluctuating all around and holding a bone claw diving down towards her, making her hastily retreat in fright.

”Take a hit from your Grandmaster Qiu!”

Ji Yuan, holding the bone claw with both hands, infused it with Spiritual Qi, scraping fiercely at the elderly woman.

Not aiming to kill, just to make an impression.

The old woman had no choice but to dodge in haste.

Meanwhile, Deng Pinghai took the opportunity to quickly adjust his energy.

Below the cliff, blocked by the mountain, Ji Yuan could no longer see the battle between the two Fake Pill cultivators, but he could hear Wailing Wanderer’s maniacal laughter.
