Immortality begins with upgrading buildings

Chapter 370 New Building – [Drill Ground]! (Double votes requested)

Battle is imminent.

Ji Yuan first flicked his finger, tossing a Qi and Blood Pill into Xing Shuang's hand. He then raised his right hand and summoned his natal magic weapon from his dantian.

Lingtai Fangcun Mountain!

The small hill grew taller as it faced the wind, and by the time it appeared above Ji Yuan's head, it had transformed into a bluish-brown stone mountain, protecting him.

The ax split the stone mountain.

"boom--"

A huge and muffled sound rang out, and Ji Yuan's figure flashed to the foot of Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, supporting the mountain with one hand.

As the shockwave swept away, sending Xing Shuang flying, she swallowed the Qi and Blood Pill that Ji Yuan had given her without hesitation.

As her vital energy and blood flowed out of her body and permeated her skin, she knew the preciousness of what Ji Yuan had given her.

But she didn't have time to be surprised.

Having fully recovered from her injuries, she immediately consumed her last drop of the Millennium Spirit Milk.

This was originally meant to save her life, but she hadn't used it before because of her injuries, and even if she had taken it, it wouldn't have been very effective.

But things are different now.

With all physical injuries gone, this drop of millennium-old spiritual milk will be the key to turning the tide!

Sensing the rapidly accumulating magical power within her dantian, she sneered, turned around, and plucked the bowstring in her hand.

"Zheng—"

As the bowstring vibrated, a beam of light shot out, immediately stopping the alluring woman who was trying to escape.

With one arrow forcing her opponent to a halt, Xing Shuang pressed her advantage, firing arrows incessantly until she quickly forced the alluring woman back a considerable distance.

Her cultivation level had already reached the peak of the mid-stage Core Formation realm, and she was just one step away from breaking through.

The purpose of this trip to Yazhou Bay is to hunt down two third-tier demonic beasts in order to obtain the materials needed for the final breakthrough.

Unfortunately, something unexpected happened, and he inadvertently provoked these two formidable individuals.

Fortunately, Ji Yuan has now stopped the powerful Demon Lord Duan Yue, so she has nothing to worry about.

Without the Demon Lord Duan Yue by her side, a mere mid-stage Core Formation cultivator is no match for Xing Shuang!

Seeing Xing Shuang take the other one away, Ji Yuan no longer had any reservations.

After using the Lingtai Fangcun Mountain to block the giant axe, he flashed to the top of the mountain. He looked down at the Duan Yue Demon Lord opposite him with an extremely arrogant posture.

"Arrogant!"

Who is the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains?

That's a formidable character who has roamed the northern part of the Endless Sea without encountering many rivals. When has he ever been looked down upon by a cultivator in the early stage of Core Formation?

Just as he was about to make another move, he saw two black banners appear behind the person opposite him.

As soon as one of the swords appeared, a swarm of dark, malevolent spirits flew out from it, while the other sword emitted a thick black mist that instantly filled the sky and swallowed his figure.

"This is... the Thousand Soul Banner?! I didn't realize you were a demonic cultivator. What a damn hypocrite!"

A cold laugh came from within the ghostly mist from the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain.

Accompanying the slash was a beam of axe light; as the black axe passed, countless vengeful spirits were about to be cut down.

But just then, the Yin Ghost Formation changed, and all the Yin spirits in front of them disappeared.

The Demon Lord of Broken Mountains missed his target.

Upon seeing this, he immediately became extremely alert. Although he was only at the early stage of Core Formation, the fact that he could manipulate the formation to such an extent meant he must be a formation cultivator!

No wonder he dared to stop and play the hero; he's got some skills after all!

Having fallen into the formation, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain immediately fled. Staying in the same place would only make him sink deeper. It would be better to find the edge of the formation first and then break it with force!

Just as he was preparing to flee far away after his attack failed, he suddenly found himself surrounded by a dense aura of yin energy. Before he could make a move, a dark green ring of fire swept towards him from all directions.

The aura emanating from the green will-o'-the-wisp instantly jolted him awake.

"This is... the Shadow Corpse Demon Flame! You are Mo Tusheng!"

"Since you are here in person, why not show your true face instead of trying to ambush me, Duan Yue!"

A powerful aura of malevolence suddenly appeared around the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains, blocking the Yin Corpse Demon Fire the instant he fled into the distance.

Ji Yuan remained silent, simply manipulating the Yin Ghost Array while continuing to send the Yin Corpse Demon Fire descending upon him.

As for Mo Tusheng, whom the Demon Lord of Duan Yue mentioned, Ji Yuan had heard of him.

That person was the other demonic cultivator from the Soul Refining Hall who possessed the Yin Corpse Demonic Fire, as mentioned by the Bone Nightmare Old Demon.

Like the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain, he was also in the late stage of Core Formation, and was also a Nascent Soul Old Monster of the Soul Refining Hall, the personal disciple of that Soul Hall Master.

Ji Yuan remained silent, only relentlessly pursuing and killing.

Soon, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain also realized that something was wrong.

Normally, he would have already escaped over a hundred miles away, but he was still enveloped by this black mist.

How is that possible?

Trapped!

He immediately understood and stopped trying to escape.

Seeing the Yin Corpse Demon Fire gather around him again, he swung his giant axe with both hands, spun around in a circle, and actually cleaved the Yin Corpse Demon Fire in two.

This was the first time Ji Yuan had ever seen such a fierce fighting style, which could even shatter the Yin Corpse Demon Fire, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Just as he was gathering and condensing the Yin Corpse Demon Fire again, he saw the Broken Mountain Demon Lord punch his chest, spit out a mouthful of blood, and at the same time, his entire body suddenly grew taller, transforming into a huge demon statue three zhang tall.

Its teeth protrude outwards, it has two horns on its head, and the black clothes it originally wore are hanging around its body. Its naked upper body is covered with blood-stained patterns.

The giant axe that he was holding in his hand grew larger, as if it had transformed into a giant axe that could split the heavens.

Standing atop the mountain, Ji Yuan's eyes also held a hint of caution.

Because at the very moment that the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain transformed, he clearly sensed that the old demon's aura had increased significantly.

He might be approaching the threshold of the peak of the Core Formation stage.

"Brother Liu, this old demon cultivates the 'Demon Shattering Earth Technique,' an earth-based demonic art. Once he lands on the ground, his strength will be further enhanced by the earth's power."

Xing Shuang was worried that Ji Yuan was unaware of the situation of the Demon Lord Duan Yue, so she explained it to him through telepathy during the battle.

"Okay, don't worry."

Ji Yuan gave a simple reply and then ignored it, focusing all his attention on dealing with the old devil in front of him.

The newly formed Yin Corpse Demon Fire rushed forward.

The Demon Lord of Broken Mountains thrust his palm forward, and a layer of baleful energy immediately appeared on his body.

Moreover, compared to before, his shield was obviously several times stronger, actually blocking the erosion of the Yin Corpse Demon Fire... but it was only barely enough to block it.

Ji Yuan could clearly feel the Yin Corpse Demon Fire rapidly burning the protective shield on his body.

I estimate it won't take more than a few breaths to break it completely.

But it only takes a breath or two.

The Demon Lord of Broken Mountain, who seemed to have transformed into a demon god, gripped a giant axe with both hands and cleaved fiercely towards the sky.

"laugh--"

Under this immense force, the black mist above his head was torn open like a curtain.

Ji Yuan clearly felt that the Yin Ghost Formation had been cleaved open by the Broken Mountain Demon Lord's axe, and he transformed into a beam of light and escaped from it.

But just as he stepped out, darkness fell over his head.

"scare--"

He looked up abruptly and saw that the stone mountain had appeared out of thin air above him, pressing down on him.

Mountain Press Technique!

He threw out his giant axe, which grew longer in the wind and held up the Lingtai Fangcun Mountain. At the same time, he raised his hands to support the foot of the mountain.

But at this very moment...

He suddenly felt a pang of panic, as if he had sensed some great terror.

"not good!"

He knew something was wrong.

"laugh--"

Five soft sounds pierced the sky, seemingly carrying a hint of thunder and lightning.

In his divine sense, there were five flying swords flashing with lightning.

It first appeared from behind the man in blue, and then instantly appeared in front of him.

Although he was protected by a murderous aura, he still felt a strong threat when the lightning sword struck.

"fall!"

With a thought, Ji Yuan withdrew the Yin Corpse Demon Fire, and the Thunderstrike Mother Sword, leading the other four child swords, simultaneously unleashed the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder.

"Boom!"

"Sizzle—"

Around Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, there were no dark clouds, only streaks of purple lightning raging.

"Ugh!!!"

The Demon Lord of Broken Mountain, who was supporting the giant mountain with both hands, was immediately injured. Under the Yin Corpse Demon Fire, the intense baleful aura on his body could barely sustain him for a few more breaths.

However, under the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, which is specifically designed to subdue evil spirits, his malevolent aura couldn't even last a single breath before being completely shattered.

The Purple Heaven Divine Lightning descended upon his body in a single strike.

The demonic body that the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains had always been so proud of became the source of his suffering.

The excruciating pain in his body nearly drove the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains to the brink of collapse, but the threat of death kept him conscious.

He activated his natal magic weapon with his mind, causing the Earth-Splitting Demon Axe to continue to grow larger, forcibly supporting the Lingtai Fangcun Mountain.

He managed to escape, raised his fists, and, enduring the excruciating pain, overturned two flying swords. His figure, accompanied by countless bolts of purple lightning, plummeted towards the ground.

At that moment, it was as if Ji Yuan had cleaved him from the sky.

His figure plummeted straight down like a shooting star from outer space.

"My husband!!!"

Upon seeing this, the female cultivator who was fighting Xing Shuang in the far distance immediately shouted anxiously.

She never expected that she, one of the "Double Killers of Kui Xing," would suddenly appear out of nowhere—no, damn it, a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator!

Now that things have come to this, Ji Yuan has already gone all out.

The "Concealing Breath Technique" has become ineffective, and the "Form-Changing Talisman" has also become ineffective.

Even after revealing his true cultivation level, the female cultivator still found it somewhat difficult to accept.

So what if I'm in the mid-stage of Core Formation? My husband is in the late-stage of Core Formation!

Someone who, once their demonic body is activated, can exchange several blows with a peak Core Formation cultivator, how... how could this be...?

"puff--"

She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her shoulder, and almost got thrown off her feet.

Xing Shuang across from her sneered, "You dare to be distracted while fighting me? You probably don't even know how you died!"

"..."

"I've been waiting for you for so long!"

When Ji Yuan saw the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain land, he might have thought of using the earth's power to resist the might of the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, or he might have thought of escaping, but it didn't matter.

As soon as the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain landed, five more flying swords emerged from the ground around him.

"Wh...what?!"

His expression was full of disbelief.

He had carefully sensed the ground before landing and found that there were no special features there, which is why he dared to land.

What?! There were already flying swords lying in ambush here after we landed?!

Tianmu, his figure had somehow already arrived at the top of Lingtai Fangcun Mountain. With a heavy stomp of his foot, Ji Yuan waved his right hand, and a bamboo hat flew out from the ground, which he then put into his sleeve.

The moment he released the Yin Ghost Flag, he had hidden this treasure underground, concealing it in a bamboo hat with several flying swords.

This is the moment we've been waiting for!

"Lightning—Kill!"

As Ji Yuan stepped onto the ground, his thoughts settled.

Instantly, the five Canglan Swords surrounding the body of the Broken Mountain Demon Lord also revealed the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning.

In addition, there were five lightning-struck flying swords that fell from above his head.

Between the two superimposed elements, the valley seemed to transform into an ocean of lightning.

It's still an ocean of Purple Heaven Divine Thunder!

"ah!!!"

Having already withstood the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning once, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain was now struck by the second Purple Heaven Divine Lightning.

The already injured body was completely unable to resist the second bolt of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning.

In his haste, he shakily took out a... talisman from his storage bag!

The talisman looked damaged and broken, and the Demon Lord Duan Yue immediately crushed it after taking it out.

In an instant, a candle appeared in his hand.

A bronze glass cup, with a deep blue candle flame burning on it.

The moment the fire appeared, it protected his body, while the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning around him seemed to be frozen in place.

"This is... a real treasure?!"

Upon seeing this scene, Ji Yuan immediately understood.

If it weren't a genuine treasure, it could never possess such power!

It must be a true treasure crafted by a Nascent Soul cultivator using his own natal magic weapon to withstand this Purple Heaven Divine Lightning.

After using this treasure to protect his body, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain immediately dispelled his demonic power.

Otherwise, if he releases his demonic body, the energy of the true treasure will be consumed even faster.

Just when Ji Yuan thought he was going to rely on the power of this treasure to fight him again, he actually... ran away!

Holding the bronze glass cup, he leaped up and transformed into a streak of light, heading straight towards the southeast.

Once the power of the late-stage Core Formation realm was unleashed, the speed was incredibly fast, disappearing into the horizon almost in the blink of an eye.

The female cultivator who was fighting Xing Shuang was to his northwest.

One in the southeast, one in the northwest.

When disaster strikes, everyone flees for their lives.

Seeing this, the alluring woman was in great pain, but thankfully she remained conscious. While desperately resisting Xing Shuang's attacks, she cried out:

"Fellow Daoist Xing, spare...spare my life! This was all instigated by the old demon Duan Yue! I...I had no intention of being your enemy!"

Xing Shuang remained silent, but drew her bow even faster.

Ji Yuan glanced back and transmitted his voice to Xing Shuang, saying, "Kill her!"

"I'm going to chase after Duan Yue."

Now that I've fought Ji Yuan, learned about his Yin Corpse Demon Fire and Purple Heaven Divine Thunder techniques, and even seen his true appearance... I can't let this kind of person get away!

After Ji Yuan finished speaking telepathically, he mentally called out, "Chase Lightning!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure instantly transformed into a bolt of lightning and vanished from the spot.

Its speed was so fast that it was even faster than that of the Demon Lord Duan Yue, who had just reached the late stage of Core Formation.

Not to mention the wife of the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain, even Xing Shuang was somewhat astonished when she saw this scene.

"This old devil's methods... are truly numerous. His killing prowess is so strong, and his escape techniques are so swift. Isn't this a situation where you can't beat him in a fight, and you can't escape him either?"

The thought flashed through Xing Shuang's mind, and her hands moved even faster!

Not to mention that Ji Yuan told her to kill the man in front of her, she herself wanted to kill him too!

Seeing this, the alluring woman lost all will to resist and only thought about escaping.

His lifelong desire to retire was riddled with flaws.

Xing Shuang quickly seized the opportunity and beat him while he was down.

……

"Damn it, if this isn't Mo Tusheng, who is he? Having the Yin Corpse Demon Flame is one thing, but he also knows the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder?! So many flying swords forged from Purple Heaven Stones—I've never heard of so many Purple Heaven Stones in the Extreme Abyss Continent!"

Holding the bronze glass cup, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains protected himself while fleeing madly to the southeast.

"No, we need to go even faster. Let me think... Let's go to Beijiang and find that stinky fisherman! That woman is definitely not going to survive now. At worst, we can give half of Kuixing Island to that stinky fisherman and make him take action to join forces and kill this hut!"

Having made up his mind, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains increased his speed even further.

But just then, he discovered that a figure was chasing after him, and its speed far exceeded his own.

They have even reached the peak of the Core Formation stage.

...Who the hell is this?!

After seeing the man's face clearly, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains had already started cursing.

It's one thing for someone in the mid-stage of Core Formation to be so powerful in killing.

Now even their escape techniques are so exaggerated! This... even if this were a Nascent Soul cultivator's personal disciple, Mo Tusheng wouldn't be this strong, right?!

At this speed, let alone reaching Beijiang, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to get over that mountain ahead.

Since there was no way to escape, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains also had no chance to escape.

Holding the bronze glass cup in his left hand, he stopped, turned around, and said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist, we have no grudge against each other, why are you pressing me so hard?"

"If you let me go today, I will repay you handsomely in the future... No, I am willing to give up all my possessions."

"I only beg you, fellow Daoist, to show mercy!"

Ji Yuan's figure materialized, and Zhu Dianyun once again transformed into a wisp of energy, floating beside him.

As soon as he stopped, he raised his right hand high, and five Canglan swords flew out. Four of the smaller swords converged and merged into the mother sword, transforming it into a giant sword that slashed down from the sky.

"Even if I kill you, you'll still be mine!"

Ji Yuan scoffed.

"fall!"

As the Azure Wave Sword fell, the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder struck again. The Demon Lord of Broken Mountains had no choice but to raise the bronze glass lamp in his hand high so that the candlelight it emitted could block the falling Purple Heaven Divine Thunder.

Now, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain has only one thought in his mind.

That means he was certain that Ji Yuan didn't have much Purple Heaven Divine Lightning!

What is this Purple Cloud Stone?

Any one of these pieces would be a treasure that would attract countless Core Formation cultivators to fight over.

Although the man before me possesses a flying sword forged from Purple Cloud Stone, the amount of Purple Cloud Divine Lightning stored within it must be limited.

Although his own treasure had been greatly depleted, so had the other party's.

Once his Purple Heaven Divine Lightning is exhausted, it will be my chance to turn the tables!

Just now, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain discovered that the purple flying sword that this person used before was gone, and he was now using a light blue flying sword.

Once the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning of this azure flying sword is exhausted, then... it will be successful!

That was his plan, and so did Ji Yuan's; the power of this true treasure was something they simply couldn't contend with.

Just like now, Ji Yuan is using the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder without regard for the cost, all to suppress the Broken Mountain Demon Lord and prevent him from using this true treasure properly.

Otherwise, if they gain the upper hand and use this treasure against me, I'll be in big trouble!

The two remained locked in this stalemate for the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea.

Ji Yuan unleashed three bolts of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning in succession, thus exhausting the divine lightning stored within the Canglan Sword.

However, the result was that the bronze glass lamp in the hands of the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains was also on the verge of collapse.

Its appearance was ethereal, as if it might disappear at any moment.

But the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains was not surprised but delighted, because he could feel that the power of the Purple Heaven Divine Lightning was getting weaker and weaker.

Is it finally... finally reaching the limit?

The Demon Lord of Broken Mountains stretched out his right hand, and once again grasped the slightly bent Earth-Splitting Demon Axe.

"receive--"

Ji Yuan made a sword finger with his right hand and gently hooked it, and the five Canglan swords flew back into his body.

Seizing the opportunity, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain dispersed his treasures, and with his hands gripping a giant axe, he leaped high into the air and slashed fiercely at Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan, who was originally planning to continue using the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder to kill the enemy, suddenly changed his mind upon seeing this.

He flashed by, making a short leap, and instantly appeared before the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains.

She reached out and grabbed his neck.

"scare--"

This sudden turn of events startled the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains, but the immense force that surged through his throat was even more unbelievable.

He had already cultivated a demonic art to enhance his physique. Although he could not achieve the same level of physical cultivation as other body cultivators, he was still far superior to ordinary cultivators.

But now... the force coming from his throat that he couldn't resist made him realize a fact he had to accept.

The person in front of me is... a body cultivator!

The Demon Lord of Broken Mountains immediately cast a spell, and a dragon appeared in the void, biting straight at Ji Yuan's head.

But at that moment, two real dragons flew out from Ji Yuan's sleeve and pounced on the black dragon phantom.

Two third-tier demonic beasts.

This scene almost made the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain lose his will to resist.

For an ordinary Core Formation cultivator to cultivate a third-tier demonic beast, it would take countless resources.

But what about the person in front of you?

It's one thing to cultivate third-tier demonic beasts, but to cultivate two of them, and they're even dragon-type spirit beasts!

But in that moment of distraction, Ji Yuan seized the opportunity, grabbing the Demon Lord Duan Yue's neck with his left hand and throwing a punch with his right.

The instant the sound of something tearing through the air rang out, his fist landed on the temple of the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains.

With just a simple punch, the Demon Lord of Broken Mountains' eyes bulged out and blood flowed from his seven orifices.

But he's not dead yet.

Ji Yuan casually tossed his body away, just as the Demon Lord Duan Yue was in a daze.

Five more blood-red flying swords fell from the sky.

Each flying sword was crackling with purple lightning, and the lightning on the leader sword pierced through the tip and struck the chest of the Broken Mountain Demon Lord.

"Bang—"

Lightning flashed everywhere, and the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain shivered, his already slightly damaged body instantly stiffening.

Ji Yuan flipped his hand and took out the Thousand Soul Banner from his storage bag.

The wind rises and the flags flutter.

Ji Yuan made a hand seal with one hand and chanted a few incantations. A wisp of Yin spirit flew out from the body of the Broken Mountain Demon and was eventually absorbed into the Thousand Soul Banner.

"Another late-stage Core Formation Yin Soul has been acquired. After nurturing it within this Thousand Soul Banner for a period of time, it will soon possess the strength of an early-stage Core Formation cultivator... It can be considered that it has been put to good use."

After collecting the Yin spirit, Ji Yuan waved his hand, and the corpse of the Demon Lord of Broken Mountain was put into the [Mass Burial Mound] of Lingtai Fangcun Mountain. The remaining storage bag fell into Ji Yuan's hands.

He weighed it in his hand; it was quite heavy.

There must be quite a few good things, but now is not the time to rush to check them. He turned around and put the two ice dragons into his Lingtai Fangcun Mountain. After confirming that there was nothing else missing in the surrounding area, he called out.

"Chasing electricity".

With a soft "crack," Ji Yuan's figure had already transformed into a bolt of lightning and left the spot.

After a while.

Having changed his appearance, Ji Yuan returned to the place where they had fought before, and Xing Shuang flew down from the ground.

She looked at the person in front of her. Although his aura and appearance were completely different from Ji Yuan's, she still knew that the person in front of her was him.

Xing Shuang transmitted her voice and said:

"Brother Liu, it's all taken care of."

Ji Yuan glanced at the ground. Xing Shuang had not only dealt with the female cultivator, but also cleaned up the traces left by the fight.

"Okay, everything's fine on my end. Let's go and talk somewhere else."

"it is good."

The two then flew straight towards Winter City in the southwest, but this time Ji Yuan did not use the Lightning Cloud again.

During their journey south, the two encountered several Core Formation cultivators who were heading north to investigate. They scrutinized Ji Yuan and his companion with their eyes, but ultimately did not ask them anything.

a few days later.

Inside Xing Shuang's new cave dwelling, the two sat peacefully.

"This is the female cultivator's storage bag," Xing Shuang said, offering it to her as before.

Ji Yuan glanced at it, shook his head, and said, "Keep Miss Xing."

Before she could speak again, Ji Yuan changed the subject, "I remember when we parted ways in the Northwest Sand Prison, didn't Miss Xing say she was coming back to advance to the late Core Formation stage? How come now..."

"I'm ashamed to say this," Xing Shuang said somewhat awkwardly as she placed the storage bag on the table. "After returning last time, I tried to go into seclusion, but I overestimated my talent and underestimated the difficulty of the late Core Formation stage. I failed on my first try and wasted a lot of resources."

"I've been preparing for this for several years, but wanting to be on the safe side, I went to Yazhou Bay again, intending to hunt a few more third-tier demonic beasts to obtain resources for my breakthrough. But unexpectedly, I stumbled upon something else there..."

Xing Shuang had nothing to hide about Ji Yuan, who had saved her life twice, and told him the whole story.

Roughly speaking, when Xing Shuang was killing demons in Yazhou Bay, she encountered an injured third-tier demon beast.

She killed it without hesitation, but found something inside the monster's belly.

Then the Kui Xing Twin Fiends caught up and, without saying a word, tried to kill him.

Xing Shuang could easily guess that it was because of those two items. She considered them treasures and naturally refused to accept them, which led to this whole incident...

"I was prepared to give this away only when I could no longer keep it. I never expected to meet Brother Liu by chance. In that case, I will give this to Brother Liu."

After Xing Shuang finished speaking, she flipped her hand and took something out of her storage bag, placed it on the table, and pushed it over.

Ji Yuan naturally looked down.

At first glance, he found the object strangely familiar.

Because this was actually a token from the Yin Ghost Sect, the very token that could summon a portal.

Ji Yuan already had two pieces, and those two pieces had even been combined into one. What he was seeing now was the third piece he had encountered.

...Wenjiu told me that this thing is a treasure related to the Great Secret Realm, namely the Rakshasa Sea.

Even if he hadn't said it, I already knew that anything related to the Yin Ghost Sect was a treasure.

Seeing Ji Yuan's expression, Xing Shuang knew that he recognized this item.

So he smiled and pushed it, letting it fall into Ji Yuan's hands.

"I'll accept the storage bag, but I'll give this to Brother Liu, how about that?"

"it is good."

Ji Yuan didn't bother with any pretense of politeness and immediately put it into his storage bag.

"Then, Miss Xing, shall you continue your seclusion?"

"Um."

Xing Shuang nodded. "Previously, we didn't have enough resources, so we sourced from Yazhou Bay. But this time, with this woman's storage bag and the third-tier demon beast I killed... it seems we're almost ready."

"Alright, then I wish Miss Xing all the best in advance."

Ji Yuan smiled and clasped his hands in a fist salute to her.

"Thank you for your kind words, Brother Liu." Xing Shuang smiled as well, feeling that the words were strangely familiar.

After all, Ji Yuan said the same thing when the two parted ways in the Northwest Sand Prison last time.

Ji Yuan didn't stay in Winter City for long afterward. After resolving the matter, he found a secluded place, transformed himself back into Hu Beizhi, and then headed north, returning to the Bone Nightmare Sect without any obstacles.

Back on this familiar island of dreams.

Ji Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't rush to check the storage bag of the Demon Lord Duan Yue, nor did he rush to fuse the token. Instead, he went straight to the martial arts arena inside the cave.

After all, one of the main reasons he went out was to find out what was going on at this martial arts arena.

After he arrived here, he first lit the torches around him, and then placed the eighteen kinds of weapons in the corner of the wall.

"Come out!"

After Ji Yuan released Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, he reached out and tapped the stone mountain.

A small, light blue dragon fell from inside, its body floating in the air, circling around Ji Yuan once, its posture quite beautiful.

"Fight me, and if you win, you can have this."

As Ji Yuan spoke, he took out one or two thousand-year-old cold spirit milk from his storage bag, which was also the annual output of a level 4 [Fish Pond].

Just moments before, Monday had been completely oblivious, but suddenly its dragon eyes widened. Though only the length of an arm, it swung its body and instantly transformed into a dragon over ten zhang long and as thick as a water bucket.

Seeing it, he wanted to open his mouth and bite it, but Ji Yuan pushed him away.

"What's the rush? Promise your father first."

After saying that, Ji Yuan put away the 1-2 thousand-year-old Cold Spirit Milk with his backhand, then stepped back, adopted a bow stance, and assumed a fighting posture.

As the saying goes, a generous reward will surely bring forth brave men!

The same thing happened this Monday. Seeing that Ji Yuan was serious, it immediately opened its mouth and exhaled a breath of cold air.

"ha!!!"

As the cold air passed by, the entire training ground was instantly frozen. Ji Yuan stepped on the ground and soared into the air, avoiding the cold air. At the same time, he threw a punch from the sky, directly knocking the Qi Dragon away.

The moment he landed again, he noticed a line of small characters above his head.

[Drill Grounds: lv0]

"So...it's that simple???"
