Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 464: Chapter 225: Ji Yuan’s Magical Treasure

The consumption is small, and naturally, the speed of condensation is fast.

So what is this Talisman Treasure suitable for?

Of course, it’s suitable for sneak attacks!

Ji Yuan’s favorite.

In future confrontations with others, when both parties take out their attacking Talisman Treasures, Ji Yuan would use this Netherworld Piercing.

Before the opponent’s Talisman Treasure could be condensed, the Netherworld Piercing would already be in front of them.

By then... hehehe!

All good things, take them all!

Ji Yuan stored all three of these Talisman Treasures into his Storage Bag, leaving only some ”ordinary” Tier Three Elixirs.

For healing, restoring Spiritual Qi, speeding up cultivation effects... Ji Yuan took out a Spirit Revitalizing Pill, swallowed it whole, and instantly felt an endless stream of Spiritual Qi gathering into his Dantian.

As for Talismans, in battles between Golden Core Cultivators, the effect of Talismans isn’t significant anymore. Even if they are used, most would use Talisman Treasures.

The rest was some immortal family materials. Ji Yuan skimmed through and quickly found two good things!

Two Tier Three Demon Pills!

These things, Ji Yuan needs for upgrading many buildings, and even if not for upgrades, selling them could bring a fortune.

Good stuff, put it away.

Among other things, Ji Yuan focused on whether there were any materials needed for building upgrades.

Unfortunately, not a single one, but there were still plenty of valuable items.

Like Foundation Establishment Pills, Celestial Silkworm Zhenren has 5 of them, among which 4 are Two-striped Foundation Establishment Pills, with only 1 being a one-striped one.

Ji Yuan took them out, sniffed, and slightly analyzed the medicinal properties.

It turned out to be exactly the same as Shang Dong’s Foundation Establishment Pill formula, with no differences in materials.

It seems, after all, they can only be sold for money.

’When heading north, let’s see if there’s an auction; if there is, I’ll sell some.’

After handling the Storage Bag, Ji Yuan’s mood was extremely elated.

Regardless, gaining is always a joyous thing.

Especially with such a great harvest.

When in a good mood, what should one do?

Ji Yuan took out a flask of Heart’s Desire Wine from his Storage Bag and took a big swig.

The originally joyful mood became even more joyful.

Added to that, being in the Meditation Room, the building’s effects continuously nurtured his Divine Soul.

Feeling like ascending to immortality.

This mystical feeling, Ji Yuan experienced for the first time in his life.

He indulged in this immersive experience for a cup of tea’s time until the effects of the Heart’s Desire Wine passed, and Ji Yuan leisurely awoke.

And it was just this short while.

The fatigue from previously hurrying, infiltrating the Demon Sect, engaging in magical combat with Jiang Hong, and the battle with Dong Qian for three hundred rounds was all swept away.

Especially the last part, if only Dong Qian were not here...

Ahem.

Thinking of Dong Qian, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but ponder over her matters.

Firstly was the incident start; back then in the tomb, even when Dong Qian was disrobing, Ji Yuan believed that with his determination, he could resist.

The problem was when Dong Qian breathed at him... which could be an aphrodisiac or poison, and then Ji Yuan couldn’t resist.

During intimate moments, Ji Yuan took the opportunity to inquire Dong Qian.

She said it was her poison, and aside from inducing, it had no other effects.

So, Ji Yuan ruthlessly humiliated her.

About this... the die is cast, there’s no way around it.

Secondly is Dong Qian’s identity, Celestial Fox Race... Ji Yuan is eighty percent sure that this Celestial Fox Race is from another continent.

When the time comes, I’ll ask Hua Yaoyue, it should be clear then.

Moreover, another thing is, Dong Qian doesn’t seem to have expressed any desire to become Dao companions with him?

This point puzzles Ji Yuan; during their interactions, he can clearly feel Dong Qian’s affection for him.

So, does Ji Yuan have feelings for her?

Indeed, upon honest introspection, he does, at least there is a good impression.

If not, Ji Yuan couldn’t have been so carried away.

Given this, why doesn’t she mention anything about it?

Ji Yuan contemplated for a long time, harboring some guesses, but since Dong Qian didn’t say, he couldn’t tell reality from speculation, at present, he can only consider it as an exceptionally close relationship.

At least, he gained someone he could truly trust.

Moreover, Dong Qian... frankly, knows when to advance and retreat.

Ji Yuan originally thought she would take the opportunity to pry into his secrets; for those unfamiliar with him, they would find him ordinary, without anything special, perhaps just luckier with a Golden Core Zhenren as a master.

But those familiar with him, especially Dong Qian and Du Wanyi, could basically guess there is significant opportunity in him.

But Dong Qian?

She never mentioned it, never asked once.

Just this point gave Ji Yuan a great impression.

Ji Yuan even considered if she asked him, what should be done?

Telling isn’t possible, building upgrade matters, Ji Yuan would never disclose, yet he couldn’t bear to deceive Dong Qian.

So if Dong Qian truly asks, Ji Yuan would just say nothing, and not mention anything.

By then, both might feel some discord in their hearts.

But Dong Qian handled it so well, she never whispered a word... that’s great, this way not only does he have someone reliable, he also has a dual cultivation partner, seemingly without the need of taking responsibility.

No matter how you look at it, it’s quite favorable.

But Ji Yuan also knew, just as he kept things from Dong Qian, Dong Qian must have things she’s keeping secret from him.

It’s just unknowable when such matters will surface.

Unable to figure it out, Ji Yuan decided not to think about it.

After all, don’t be too hard on oneself, one should also learn to reconcile with oneself.

...

Meanwhile.

In the Water Dragon Sect, south of Cloud Rain Marsh in Red Leaf City, in a courtyard.

Han Feiyu looked at the woman entering and stood up swiftly to salute her, ”Disciple greets Master.”

”Mm.”

The woman with a white veil over her face sat in the seat opposite him.

Han Feiyu looked at his former senior sister, now his master... yet his master was a man, which made him always feel a bit awkward.

”I expelled you from the Water Dragon Sect, you shouldn’t hold any grudges against me, right?”

The Isle Master of Cloud Mist picked up the tea on the table, lifted the veil, and drank it down boldly, then smiled slightly:

”Of course, if there’s any grudge, it’s okay, I can send you to meet your senior sister, after all.”
