Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1212: Chapter 419: Swallowing a Mouthful of Spirit Wine, My Fate Is Mine, Not Heaven’s!

This made Ji Yuan, who had just flown out from the bottom of the volcanic lake, stare in stunned disbelief.

...This Purple Gold Gourd is actually this ruthless?

With a trick like that, why didn’t it bolt long ago? Still staying in here to play around—could it be doing this on purpose, just to toy with these Transformed Demons?

”Good, good, good.”

Seeing this, Mei Manor seemed a little angered. He immediately raised his right hand, five fingers Zhang Kai and then clenched them tight.

Only now did Ji Yuan notice that at the opening above their heads, there was actually a fine purple Thunder Net. If the Purple Gold Gourd tried to escape through the hole, it would definitely fall right into that Thunder Net.

At this very moment, as Mei Manor’s five fingers clenched, Ji Yuan saw Thunder Nets start to appear all over the cavern.

The Purple Gold Gourd had clearly noticed this as well.

Its speed first slowed, making the Great Crocodile Ancestor and the Green-robed Old Ancestor think they’d caught a chance, and they lunged forward.

As the phantoms of a toad and a crocodile appeared, the Purple Gold Gourd suddenly sped up again, bursting out from between their blockade.

...Damn it, why is it heading for me!

Ji Yuan, who had been happily watching the show, suddenly saw the Purple Gold Gourd break through the obstruction and fly straight toward him.

This was a scorching hot potato.

If he had already undergone Nascent Soul Formation, Ji Yuan might still be thinking about fighting for it, but he was just a Golden Core Cultivator who hadn’t even formed his Nascent Soul yet. How could he possibly protect this Secret of Divinity Transformation?!

So of course he planned to dodge aside.

But the Purple Gold Gourd’s speed was something even Mei Manor couldn’t catch up to, how could Ji Yuan possibly evade it?

One second he saw the Purple Gold Gourd still flying toward him, the next second he realized the gourd had already merged into his body and appeared inside his Dantian.

This sudden change not only stunned him, it also stunned the other three Transformed Demons.

The Green-robed Old Ancestor and the Great Crocodile Ancestor instinctively turned to look at Mei Manor.

The latter, seeing this, dispersed the Technique in his hand, and that kind and gentle smile appeared on his face again.

He laughed loudly and flickered to appear in front of Ji Yuan. ”Good, it really has to be Ji Xiaoyou!”

”I really didn’t misjudge you!”

”This Secret of Divinity Transformation none of us could obtain, yet you got it so easily.”

Mei Manor’s figure appeared before Ji Yuan, while the Green-robed Old Ancestor and the Great Crocodile Ancestor appeared to his left and right.

The three Transformed Demons just stared at Ji Yuan like this, all wearing smiles on their faces...gloomy, sinister smiles, the kind that made Ji Yuan, this little Core Formation Cultivator, feel his heart flutter with fear.

”Alright now, hurry up and take that Purple Gold Gourd out.”

After a brief smile, Mei Manor reached out his right hand toward Ji Yuan.

”Yes.”

Knowing full well he couldn’t possibly keep hold of the Purple Gold Gourd, Ji Yuan intended to follow Mei Manor’s words and take this gourd containing the Secret of Divinity Transformation out from his body...

Take...

I’ll take...

I’ll take again...

I can’t take it out...

Ji Yuan raised his head, looked very seriously at Mei Manor, then said solemnly, ”Manor Master, if I say I can’t take it out, would you believe me?”

With those words, the smile on Mei Manor’s face gradually faded.

He stared at Ji Yuan just as seriously, then said in a deep voice, ”Ji, you’re a smart one. You know how priceless this item is to me. Now is not the time for jokes.”

Ji Yuan fell silent.

Of course he knew how precious this Secret of Divinity Transformation was to Mei Manor.

For this thing, the guy had even stooped to buttering up a Core Formation Stage cultivator like him, never mind anything else.

But likewise, the fact that Ji Yuan couldn’t take the Purple Gold Gourd out right now was also true.

This thing wasn’t under his control to begin with, and now it was stuck in his Dantian, refusing to come out no matter what.

So what could he do?

For Ji Yuan, there was nothing he could do, but for Mei Manor, there was still a way, and that was...go die!

As long as he killed Ji Yuan, he could naturally still fish the Purple Gold Gourd out from his Dantian.

On this point, Ji Yuan might have had objections, but he knew for sure that for Mei Manor there would be absolutely no problem. Don’t say killing Ji Yuan, even slaughtering these two Transformed Demons along with him wouldn’t be an issue.

But Ji Yuan felt that he himself couldn’t die either.

So this battle today, there was no way to avoid it.

The moment this thought rose, two jugs of Nine Nether Burning Life Brew appeared in front of Monday and Tuesday, the two Serpents, and yet another jug of Nine Nether Burning Life Brew appeared before the Bee King.

The Beehive had already been stored into the Mountain of Mind and Heart, making it easy for Ji Yuan to operate it.

But the Ant Nest hadn’t yet, so it seemed next time he’d have to find a chance to store the Ant Nest inside too.

Still, with these three Late-stage Tier Three Spirit Beasts this time, after drinking the Nine Nether Burning Life Brew and transforming into Late Fourth Rank Great Demons...and adding himself taking a gulp as well, it should probably be enough, right?

As for Meng Die, although it had also broken through to Mid-Tier Three, he’d just put it through the wringer last time, so it definitely wouldn’t be in good shape if he used it again now.

”Counting myself, that makes four Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators striking together...by then, even killing Mei Manor won’t be impossible.”

Ji Yuan was definitely not the hesitant type.

If he didn’t act, fine, everything could be talked through. But once he decided to act...he’d have to use the most vicious methods and take the other side out in one go!

So after steeling himself, Ji Yuan kept his surface calm and quickly bowed his head, saying, ”Let me try again. This time I’ll definitely be able to take it out.”

”If you ask me, just kill him and be done with it!”

The Great Crocodile Ancestor barked.

And at the very instant Ji Yuan lowered his head, two ice-blue Serpents, each dozens of zhang long, suddenly appeared out of thin air at his side, and as soon as they appeared, they locked him firmly between them.
