Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1129: Chapter 401: Ji Yuan Slays the Nascent Soul! [Monthly Pass Requested]

Eagle Changkong was startled and immediately thought of swooping down to attack.

But before he could move, he was intercepted by Master Qingcheng.

”Heh, engaging with an old man like me and still daring to lose focus, you really have a death wish!”

At this moment, Master Qingcheng completely shed his previous timid demeanor, revealing the dominance befitting a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Just like now.

Surrounded by wood-attributed Spiritual Qi, he stretched out his right hand and fiercely clenched it.

In an instant, eight willow leaves shot forth from all directions.

And right at the center was Eagle Changkong.

Eagle Changkong was forced to stop, spinning the golden spear in his hand around his body, and immediately, the form of a golden Horned Dragon flew out from within the spear, smashing into the eight willow leaves and continuing its charge toward Ji Yuan on the city wall.

Ji Yuan, seeing a Nascent Soul Cultivator attacking him directly, inevitably felt a bit flustered inside.

But his hand movements showed no panic.

Since Master Qingcheng was recommended by Dragon Tyrant, there should be no problem, right?

If even this level of skill couldn’t be blocked, then Ji Yuan would have to consider whether Master Qingcheng was a big leg or a small leg after all.

As expected.

Just as the Tier Four Horned Dragon’s phantom appeared, Master Qingcheng descended, his hands continuously forming seals.

Soon, a gigantic phantom of a willow tree appeared above the great city.

The willow leaves were lush and danced with the wind.

”Fall!”

Master Qingcheng shouted, slapping both hands downwards.

The willow branches in midair descended, and those branch-like long snakes instantly bound the Horned Dragon’s phantom.

But more willow branches were still approaching Eagle Changkong, seemingly intent on trapping him.

And at this moment, the pressure on Eagle Changkong increased suddenly.

Even his mind felt a thread of subconscious panic—this is... that Spiritual Energy Cannon!

What exactly is that thing?

By now, Eagle Changkong genuinely felt threatened, a life-and-death threat from that Spiritual Energy Cannon!

That thing truly had the capability to kill him.

... No, with the Spiritual Energy Cannon and Master Qingcheng combined, they probably really could kill me.

Damn it, why is Sky Falcon still being dragged down!

Why hasn’t Master Qingcheng’s Secret Technique dissipated yet?

Eagle Changkong was getting anxious.

But he also knew that despite what seemed like many things occurring, it had actually been less than five breaths of time overall.

In Nascent Soul magical combat, it might take several hours to determine a winner.

But once it came to life-and-death combat, it could be decided in just a few breaths of time.

Just like now.

Ji Yuan had already activated the Meteor Cannon to the second level, and according to the information given by the Meteor Cannon, it was sufficient to kill an early-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator.

After all, up to now, Ji Yuan had already filled it with over 30,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones.

... To be sure, it’s best to push it to the limit.

After all, this was a Nascent Soul Cultivator, and just like Nightmare True Monarch said, one couldn’t be too careful.

Along with the spirit stones being thrown in as if they were free, another two breaths of time passed.

During this, Eagle Changkong attempted to escape several times, but he was hindered by the willow tree Master Qingcheng summoned.

The willow branches, like ropes, completely locked Eagle Changkong in, leaving him with no chance to escape.

Thus, another breath of time passed.

As the last few hundred Mid-grade Spirit Stones merged in, the Level 3 Meteor Cannon was finally pushed to its limit.

The third-level Meteor Cannon was violently trembling above the city wall, and Ji Yuan even faintly felt that the wall might not hold up.

Above the sky.

Eagle Changkong’s face had turned deathly pale as he bore the full brunt of the energy lock, his heart sounding dire alarms.

The locked energy was fully capable of killing him outright!

Coupled with Master Qingcheng’s obstruction, there was no running away.

The only option now was to defend with everything he had.

Thinking this, he finally ceased attacking with his lifebound spear Magical Treasure, injecting his mana to activate it.

Dragon scales immediately appeared on the spear shaft.

The scales flipped up and then settled onto him, transforming into a dragon scale armor.

But this was far from enough; when it comes to life and death, full defense demands more than this.

Soon, a series of defensive treasures for Core Formation Cultivators flew out from his storage bag, appearing in front of Eagle Changkong.

Finally, he donned a robe made from bird feathers with a flicker of his figure.

Master Qingcheng, seeing this, activated his willow leaves one by one to break through Eagle Changkong’s defensive measures.

”Senior, please step aside.”

Ji Yuan’s voice echoed in Master Qingcheng’s mind.

If he had any doubts before as to whether Ji Yuan could kill Eagle Changkong, now he wondered if Eagle Changkong could even survive.

Master Qingcheng had already probed the mana fluctuations on the Spiritual Energy Cannon with his Divine Sense, leaving him in no doubt that if the cannon were to target him... he would have no escape.

Just like now, although Eagle Changkong seemed to have numerous defensive measures.

But to withstand a shot from the Spiritual Energy Cannon...

Truthfully.

None!

”Alright.”

Master Qingcheng replied through a transmitted voice, and then he commanded the willow tree’s branches to all droop around Eagle Changkong.

Forming a round cage, tightly trapping him.

On seeing this, Ji Yuan atop the city wall finally ceased his suppression, instead opting to relax his heart thought.

Fire!

Then a strong vibration echoed from the city wall, with wide cracks appearing instantaneously along the wall.

The energy-gathering ring of the Meteor Cannon then explosively unleashed a powerful energy beam, shooting toward the sky like a blazing sun.
