Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1209: Chapter 418: Who Is Scheming Against Whom? [Monthly Pass Requested]_4

Three consecutive days of output have been a great drain for these Tier Four mid-transformation great demons.

As for Mei Manor, at least outwardly, nothing seems amiss.

”If you can’t hold on, use the Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk. Once the array breaking begins, it cannot stop, or all previous efforts will be wasted!”

Mei Manor said in a deep voice.

”Yes.”

The Great Crocodile Ancestor responded and immediately took out a drop of extremely rich Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk from the Storage Bag, swallowing it. Immediately, a surge of Spiritual Qi emanated around him, and a look of extreme comfort appeared on his face.

The previous fatigue was swept away, and his pale complexion gradually returned to normal.

Upon recovery, he let out a low growl and immediately increased his Mana output.

After less than half an hour, even the Green Robe Ancestor couldn’t hold on and quickly took out a drop of Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk from the Storage Bag and consumed it.

Yet Mei Manor still showed no signs of abnormality.

Ji Yuan silently observed, while also speculating on exactly how strong Mei Manor’s power was.

Until another half day passed, Mei Manor’s handsome face finally started to show beads of sweat. As his energy visibly waned, it resembled a dam bursting, and he immediately began to pant heavily, his face turning somewhat pale.

Ji Yuan saw this and immediately understood.

This guy was definitely suppressing his real state earlier, otherwise, he should have been struggling by now.

Afterward, Mei Manor also took out a drop of Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk from the Storage Bag, and after his state recovered, he continued outputting.

After this drop of Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk.

The Great Crocodile Ancestor only held on for two days before he couldn’t continue and started consuming his second drop of Spirit Milk.

The Green Robe Ancestor did the same.

After the seventh day passed, the three great demons had already consumed three drops of Spirit Milk each.

Then two more days passed.

When the ninth day arrived.

Ji Yuan, who had been observing for a long time, finally noticed a sign of loosening in the array, along with a slowing operational speed, which meant that the continuous output of Mei Manor and the others had finally shown some effect.

But the Great Crocodile Ancestor was unable to hold on.

His body trembled violently as he spoke, ”Saint... Saint Master, I, I have no more Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk.”

Mei Manor, with blood-red eyes and an ashen complexion, growled lowly, ”Trash!”

Despite the words, he still reached out and tossed three drops of Spirit Milk, letting them land in the Great Crocodile Ancestor’s hands.

The latter received them and without a word immediately consumed one drop.

His state instantly returned to its peak, but the fatigue between his brows and eyes couldn’t be dispelled.

”Saint Master, I...”

Before the Green Robe Ancestor could speak, Mei Manor threw out three more drops of Spirit Milk.

”Take them!”

After that, he also consumed another drop of Spirit Milk.

By this point, although the three great demons’ states had recovered, their bodily and Divine Soul fatigue was irreparable.

The recently reprimanded Great Crocodile Ancestor felt extremely agitated, especially seeing Ji Yuan sitting casually on a high platform with an indifferent demeanor, further inflaming his rage.

”Hey!”

”That human kid, aren’t you going to help quickly? What are you doing standing there!”

Ji Yuan heard this and indeed pretended to be dazed for a moment, as if thinking... they hadn’t told me beforehand that I needed to help break the array.

For some reason, Mei Manor didn’t defend Ji Yuan this time.

So Ji Yuan pondered briefly before choosing to speak up.

”Heh, how about you, elder, accompany me into this volcano lake for a trip later?”

”You!”

The Great Crocodile Ancestor hadn’t expected Ji Yuan, a mere late-stage Core Formation human race cultivator, to dare defy him, a Tier Four mid-transformation great demon, which instantly fueled his anger.

”Enough, use the time you waste with such nonsense to put in more effort!”

Mei Manor’s impatient voice rang out, causing the Great Crocodile Ancestor to instantly shut his mouth.

Ji Yuan, being tactful, said no more and simply waited in silence.

Two days passed and then two more.

When the thirteenth day arrived, after the Great Crocodile Ancestor and Green Robe Ancestor coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, Ji Yuan finally saw some activity on the array.

With three streams of Spiritual Light aimed at the array’s flaw as the focal point, cracks spread from all directions.

Seeing this scene, Mei Manor, who was almost at his limit, suddenly gathered his energy as if he was injected with adrenaline, shouting, ”Quick, increase your Mana!”

The remaining two great demons had no choice but to comply, pouring a more potent force of Mana onto the array.

In an instant, Ji Yuan’s ears could hear the sound of ”crack, crack.”

...this array is really about to be broken.

Sensing this, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but feel worried, for once the array was broken, it would be his turn to act.

Originally sitting cross-legged on the ground, he stood up with a nervous expression and stared at the array in front of him.

This array seemingly was about to be broken, yet the three demons still struggled to hold on for more than half a day, when the array finally exploded with a roar.

Prepared in advance, Ji Yuan immediately released his Protective Spirit Light.

But the expected impact didn’t arrive, as he raised his head defensively and saw an unexpected ally— a breathless man in white standing before him.

His hands placed before him, supporting a purplish glow, protecting Ji Yuan from all post-array-breaking impacts.

”Little... little friend, are you alright?”

Mei Manor, already severely drained, turned around, forced a smile onto his face, but still worried about Ji Yuan’s safety.

At this moment, even Ji Yuan couldn’t help but be touched... but fortunately, the feeling of sympathy only lingered for a brief moment in his mind before being pushed aside.
