Immortality begins with upgrading buildings

Chapter 393 The Rampage of Old Demon Ji and Old Demon Qiu [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

"This is... Qiu Qianhai?!"

Ji Yuan suddenly turned his head.

Behind them, a young man in red robes and with red hair appeared, seemingly out of nowhere. Although his attire was identical to that of the Nightmare Lord from before, his face...

Ji Yuan recognized him at a glance.

It's not that he often misses it, but rather that he did a lot of bad things while wearing this face back in the Canglu Continent.

"Haha, it's me! I'm back!"

Qiu Qianhai leaned back and chuckled.

Then take another step closer.

"Why...didn't you go to the core area?"

Ji Yuan spoke the first half of the sentence, but he spoke the second half telepathically.

"My master has another body and doesn't need me for the time being. He would have to take care of me while I was there, so he asked the Ghost Messenger to send me back."

Qiu Qianhai also replied telepathically.

Ji Yuan knew that there were probably many things hidden here, and he wanted to ask Qiu Qianhai what was going on... It was a rare opportunity to take advantage of Nightmare True Lord's absence at this time.

But now is clearly not the time for detailed discussions. Not to mention that Ji Yuan brought over three Yin Ghosts at the peak of the Core Formation stage, the battle here was already extremely chaotic.

There are many people who try to profit from the chaos.

"Is this... a killing?"

Qiu Qianhai looked at the three peak Core Formation Yin Ghosts chasing after him, his eyes showing no fear, only a desire to fight.

Not to mention that before, they could only hide in their sea of ​​consciousness and watch helplessly as Nightmare Lord ran rampant everywhere.

After meeting Ji Yuan, Qiu Qianhai had a very strong thought in his mind.

That means I need to fight alongside Ji Yuan again.

He wanted to recapture the feeling of the two of them roaming freely (scratch that, chasing each other to the death) in Yunyuze back then, but then he was taken to the core area by Nightmare Lord... Now, he finally found an opportunity.

How could Qiu Qianhai not be tempted?

Ji Yuan glanced at Qiu Qianhai out of the corner of his eye. This kid, without the Nightmare True Monarch's possession, his cultivation level had also fallen back to the mid-stage of Core Formation.

A mid-stage Core Formation cultivator dared to fight a peak Core Formation Yin Ghost, and a three-headed one at that...

"All these years have passed, and your fearless nature hasn't changed at all."

Ji Yuan laughed and scolded.

"Hey, if you were afraid of dying, you wouldn't be alive now."

Qiu Qianhai rubbed his hands together with a smile.

"I can't kill him, I can barely suppress the killing intent in my heart."

"Kill them, but if we don't kill them, these ghosts are worth very little. We should kill them..."

Ji Yuan's calm gaze swept over the order-taking cultivators who were fleeing in all directions.

"Good, good, good, it has to be you again. You truly live up to your reputation as Old Devil Ji!"

As Qiu Qianhai spoke, he formed a hand seal in front of him, drawing a large circle, and then thrust his hands out forcefully.

Two enormous blood-red handprints were unleashed, and with just this one strike, the three Yin Ghosts at the peak of the Core Formation stage who were charging towards them were stopped.

This move even made Ji Yuan take notice.

As Mu Xueyao watched this scene, her gaze couldn't help but fall on Qiu Qianhai.

She asked tentatively:

"You're the old devil Ji from before... You were the one who saved me, weren't you?"

"It wasn't me." Qiu Qianhai didn't even glance at her, pointing directly at Ji Yuan. "It was him!"

"Alright, the hunt... it's time to begin."

Ji Yuan used his divine sense to follow the fleeing Core Formation cultivators and discovered that they had already escaped quite a distance. If he didn't act soon, it would be too late.

"Walk!"

Qiu Qianhai's voice had barely rang out when he vanished in a streak of blood-red light.

This speed alone is far beyond that of an ordinary mid-stage Core Formation cultivator!

Ji Yuan made a quick assessment... Qiu Qianhai's speed, although not as fast as his own after using Lightning Chaser, was comparable to that of an ordinary Core Formation Peak cultivator.

...Nightmare Lord is really willing to go to great lengths for his future health!

Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan couldn't help but feel a little worried.

But with so many merit points right in front of us, this is not the time to worry.

If you're going to worry, you should focus on getting your merit points first.

Otherwise, it would be a disservice to the Ghost Messenger's meticulous design!

Then Ji Yuan reached out and embraced Mu Xueyao again, while the flying sword beside him injected a wisp of Purple Heaven Divine Lightning into the Chasing Lightning Cloud.

"Chase the lightning!"

Ji Yuan called out softly, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

In just a short while, all the rogue cultivators who were frantically besieging Dongyue Tower... had fled without a trace.

Only the disciples of the Black and White Temples inside the formation remained, looking at each other in bewilderment.

For a moment, they were caught in a dilemma: whether to run or not.

Ji Yuan only chased Qiu Qianhai once before catching up with him.

"Your magic weapon is quite fast; I'll borrow it next time."

Although Qiu Qianhai's gaze fell on the lightning-chasing cloud beneath Ji Yuan's feet, his mind was clearly elsewhere.

He clasped his hands together and formed a mudra.

In an instant, the two streaks of blood-red light converged in mid-air, emitting a dazzling crimson glow.

One of the mid-stage Core Formation cultivators who was caught up turned into a blood mist and dissipated, leaving behind only a long sword-shaped natal magic weapon and a storage bag, which fell from mid-air.

But before they even landed, Qiu Qianhai had already used his object manipulation technique to retrieve them all and toss them into Mu Xueyao's hands.

He then said with a smile:

"Nice to meet you. As your older brother, I haven't prepared any gift for you. But after I kill a few more Core Formation cultivators, I'll give you all my storage bags, haha."

After saying that, he raised an eyebrow at Ji Yuan.

"So? Are you married yet? If not, I'll have to take the seat of honor. If you two are married, you'll have to treat me to another banquet."

Ji Yuan blushed.

"If you have nothing better to do, go and kill Xun Tianji."

"Never mind then, my master told me to stay away from him if I run into him." Qiu Qianhai chuckled. "Let's go, continue!"

After saying that, the three of them disappeared at the same time.

As a result, almost everyone in Rakshasa City knew that the two old devils had joined forces.

When the two joined forces, they basically fought their way from east to west and from south to north.

Even a cultivator at the peak of the Core Formation stage, if he encounters the two of them alone, has no choice but to flee for his life.

However, the two intentionally or unintentionally avoided Xun Tianji and Xiao Xuan, and the remaining Core Formation cultivators quickly sought shelter in houses.

We have no choice but to dodge.

Not to mention how ruthless the two old demons were, the endless stream of Yin ghosts alone were not something they could easily deal with.

Ji Yuan only said that it was fortunate that Xun Tianji and Nightmare True Lord had captured Qingyue Tower early on.

Otherwise, if that fourth-tier Hidden God Seeking Green Vine were still around, it would be the truly deadly thing.

The more they kill, the more their reputation grows.

Ji Yuan believed that even if he died in the Rakshasa Sea, his name would likely be known throughout the Abyss Continent for a long time.

But for him, these empty titles were of no use.

The only useful thing is the contribution points he has.

All he wanted to know was when the first level of the inner domain trial would end, because only when it ended could he exchange for the demon core.

He felt uneasy until he got his hands on the demon core.

The three worked together, killing and stopping intermittently.

Many times, Ji Yuan would rather expose his Purple Heaven Divine Thunder than expose his Yin Corpse Demon Fire.

Among all the Core Formation cultivators in the entire Abyss Continent, there are very few who possess the Yin Corpse Demon Flame.

No sooner had Hu Beizhi, who possessed the Yin Corpse Demon Flame, died than Ji Laomo, who also possessed the Yin Corpse Demon Flame, appeared... and a drama of a real and fake Ji Laomo was staged in this Rakshasa Sea.

Do they really think the Bone Nightmare Demon is a fool?

Therefore, the strange item, the Yin Corpse Demon Fire, is truly unusable for the time being.

"Have you noticed that the disciples of the Black and White Temples who were originally hiding inside the formation's core have all come out now?"

Qiu Qianhai and Ji Yuan joined forces and killed a late-stage Core Formation cultivator from the Black and White Divine Palace in just a few moves, and then said.

"We've discovered them. When the ghost messenger saw them hiding like cowards, he immediately removed the array's core, allowing the Yin ghosts to crawl out from under the four towers in the east, west, south, and north. If they don't run away, they'll just have to wait there to die."

Ji Yuan had already spied on what was happening inside the West Yue Tower when he was still west of Rakshasa City, so he naturally saw this situation as well.

"We haven't been near the array's core since, how did you manage to detect that?!"

Qiu Qianhai looked at Ji Yuan with surprise, "Your divine sense is ridiculously strong."

"It's alright, it's alright."

Ji Yuan smiled, "Let's go. Now that the formation is gone, we should have a good fight!"

"..."

at the same time.

In the ancient continent, within the Taiyi Immortal Sect, in a palace situated high above the clouds.

Two elderly men with white hair and beards sat peacefully on two white cloud-shaped prayer cushions, their faces kind and their eyelids lowered.

One was named Taiyi Zhenren, and the other was named Taier Zhenren. They were the first and second elders of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, and were also rare Nascent Soul cultivators.

At this moment, the two of them gathered here and sat for a while. Then, several sword lights rose from the mountains below the clouds and disappeared into the main hall.

"News has come from the Abyss Continent that a great secret realm called the Rakshasa Sea has opened."

Tai Er Zhenren exhaled a puff of white smoke and spoke slowly.

"Rakshasa Sea, the one left behind by the Yin Ghost Sect, right?"

Master Taiyi casually remarked, "It's probably just that old man's unwillingness to perish. It's understandable... After all, he comes from the Central Continent. So what if he's the second son? He's still someone we can't compare to."

"That's true."

Tai Er Zhenren sighed as he spoke, "It's a pity we didn't know the news sooner. Otherwise, our Taiyi Immortal Sect might as well have gotten a share of the spoils."

"Don't bite off more than you can chew. If you can master what we have now, it will be enough for you to step into the Void Refinement Realm." Master Taiyi said, spreading his hands. "But you're not living up to expectations."

"Ha, if you were to prove yourself, would you still call yourself Taiyi?"

Master Tai Er retorted without any politeness.

After a brief silence, Tai Er Zhenren finally spoke up: "It seems that there are indeed two more Mahayana cultivators on the Demon God Continent. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so arrogant and waging war everywhere."

Speaking of this matter, Master Taiyi had a bit of a headache.

"Sometimes I really don't understand. Our Ancient Desolate Continent is so poor, why is the Demon God Continent still targeting us?"

"The ones keeping a close eye on us are not the Demon God Continent, but the Barbarian God Continent... We've already fought several battles with them recently, with each side winning and losing. Given their nature, once they set their sights on us, they're unlikely to let it go easily."

Master Tai Er's expression was also somewhat unpleasant.

"Those people from the Barbarian God Continent are willing to act as pawns and lackeys for the Demon God Continent. We have nothing to say about that. All the Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation cultivators on the entire continent are willing to be dogs for others. What's there to say?"

"Moreover, I received news that the Barbarian God Continent sent people to bypass our Ancient Desolate Continent by using the teleportation array of the Zhou Tian Islands. They are preparing to join forces with the Cang Luo Continent and the Ji Yuan Continent to attack us from both sides, and then take over our Ancient Desolate Continent in one fell swoop."

After Master Taiyi finished speaking, Master Taier's expression became even more unpleasant.

"So, this is the reason you embarked on your eastward voyage?"

"Well, they don't follow the rules, so our Taiyi Immortal Sect has no choice but to reason with them."

"How many did you kill?"

Taiyi Zhenren said without changing his expression, "There are no more Nascent Soul cultivators in the Zhou Tian Islands now."

"...That's how it should be."

Master Tai Er nodded, "Since they've already betrayed us, there's no point in keeping them around."

"However, it's because our Taiyi Immortal Sect hasn't stepped forward for so long that these nobodies around here have already forgotten..."

Master Taiyi stroked his beard and smiled, a rare occurrence for him, and said, "Who is their true father?"

Master Tai Er laughed loudly, "Haha, well said!"

"However, this matter cannot be left unresolved. Since the Barbarian God Continent has made its move, we must accept the challenge," Master Taiyi continued, stroking his beard.

"We also need to go to the Abyss Continent and the Azure Fall Continent... Who should go, you or me?"

"I'll go, you just got back, you need to rest too."

Master Tai Er nodded, then, as if suddenly remembering something, said, "By the way, I remember a few years ago, didn't a sect from the Canglu Continent flee to our Desolate Ancient Continent? They were protected by Junior Brother Xuanhu."

"That's true."

Master Taiyi recalled, "But this sect... has such poor aptitude. Since the only Nascent Soul cultivator passed away, no new Nascent Soul cultivators have been born. The only two disciples with some talent have already been absorbed into our Taiyi Immortal Sect."

"Then forget about it. I'll just go myself. First to Canglu, then to Jiyuan, and ask the Nascent Soul cultivators on those two continents what they think," said Tai Er Zhenren, stroking his beard.

"What if they want to consider it?"

Master Taiyi asked, seemingly tentatively.

Tai Er Zhenren stood up and laughed loudly, "Then go and consider my Taiyi Dari Gong."

After speaking, he flicked his snow-white sleeves, took a step, and his figure disappeared into the cloud-covered palace.

After he left, the relaxed expression on Master Taiyi's face gradually disappeared.

He reached out and began to calculate, muttering to himself, "The Demon God Continent is rising in power; could it be... that we're about to repeat the mistakes of the past?"

"But the human race of today is no longer the same as it was back then, and even a portion of the Central Continent has been forcibly separated from it..."

As Taiyi Zhenren pondered this, he subconsciously glanced at the Taiyi Immortal Sect beneath him.

His eyes were dark and unreadable, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

……

The core area of ​​the Abyss Continent, the Rakshasa Sea.

Above the endless yellow sand, the energy surged wildly, with waves of spiritual energy oscillating back and forth, never ceasing.

The remaining spiritual energy within them evolved into hideous black demon heads.

In mid-air, a streak of green smoke flashed by, eventually revealing a figure.

The Xuan Snake Lord, who had somehow changed into a green robe, said in a sinister tone, "Heavenly Fiend Old Demon, do you really intend to fight to the death in this Rakshasa Sea?"

"If you're not afraid, I'd like to test your mettle as the master of Tian Sha Mountain."

As the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace spoke, he opened his mouth and spat out a scarlet snake tongue.

His eyes seemed to be filled with endless coldness.

A figure appeared on a cloud of black mist, looking down at the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace, and said in a deep voice:

"We can't just let the grudge of killing my junior brother at Shenjian Lake go, can we? A life for a life, it's only right and proper."

"Heh, countless cultivators have died at your hands, you old demon of heaven and earth. Why don't you exchange your life for theirs?"

The Lord of the Black Serpent Palace sneered:

"Since ancient times, the winner of the fist is king, and trash... deserves to perish!"

"What a brilliant principle of the Xuan Snake Palace!"

The Heavenly Fiend Old Demon laughed and said, "Very well, let me test whether the Xuan Snake Palace Lord, who is rumored to have single-handedly suppressed 100,000 mountains, is truly as invincible as the rumors say!"

Just as the two were about to fight, a voice suddenly rang out between them.

"Stop, stop, stop! Gentlemen, don't panic, don't panic."

The sound was initially very far away, but by the time it subsided, the figure was already between the two.

It wasn't just one person who arrived, but two.

"What are you two doing here?"

The Heavenly Fiend Demon looked at the suddenly appearing Bone Nightmare Demon and Fire Spirit Ghost Mother and asked in a deep voice.

The Bone Nightmare Demon was still dressed in a blue robe, and his thin figure made him look like a scholar, rather than the legendary Bone Nightmare Demon.

He tucked his hands into his sleeves, glanced left and right, and then said with a smile:

"You two are still arguing. You can argue anytime, but this Sixth-Rank Blood Pool... is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"What?! A sixth-stage blood pool has appeared?!"

Upon hearing about this thing, even the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon became somewhat excited.

There's nothing much to care about in the Sixth-Rank Blood Pool, but the treasures nurtured within it... are the truly precious things!

The reason these Nascent Soul cultivators of the demonic path have been lingering in this core area is largely to find this Sixth-Rank Blood Pool.

Otherwise, they would have already gone to find the legendary Floating Pagoda Mountain, just like those righteous cultivators.

"Where?"

Even the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace couldn't help but ask.

The Bone Nightmare Demon chuckled and said, "I've only heard the news that the Soul Palace Master has found the general location of the Sixth-Rank Blood Pool, but it seems that he hasn't found the exact location yet."

"Let's go! Brother Hun is terrible at searching, let's hurry over and lend him a hand!"

The Heavenly Demon Lord said with a serious expression.

"Tsk tsk, hypocrite! Stealing treasures is one thing, but offering to help is another. What a hypocrite!"

Lord Xuanshe Palace exposed it without hesitation.

Seeing that the two would start fighting again if they waited any longer, the Bone Nightmare Demon reached out and grabbed the Fire Spirit Ghost Mother beside him. In a flash, he turned into a bloody light and disappeared from the spot.

"Fellow Daoists, come quickly! If you are late, the Lord of the Soul Palace may have already seized the treasure and left."

"..."

"Haha, Lao Ji, that was awesome!"

Seeing that he had killed another cultivator from the Black and White Temple who was in the late stage of Core Formation, Qiu Qianhai laughed loudly.

In the distance, the late-stage Core Formation cultivator, who had only survived by sheer luck after betraying his teammates, fled frantically, muttering viciously as he did so:

"You two old devils, with your insane slaughter of Core Formation cultivators in this Rakshasa Sea, just wait to be hunted down by our Black and White Temple once you leave!"

"Noisy."

Ji Yuan glanced at it coldly, then turned to Zhu Zhudian once more.

But then a white light flashed in the distance and instantly appeared in front of the Black and White Temple disciple, protecting him behind him.

The newcomer was dressed in white robes and armor, looking extremely dashing.

"Ji Yuan, always leave room for maneuver, so that you may meet again in the future."

Xiao Xuan's cold gaze swept over Ji Yuan and Qiu Qianhai. "I'm too lazy to ask you who Ji Yuan is. In short, you've killed enough people this time!"

Qiu Qianhai crossed his arms, stepped forward, and sneered mercilessly:

"Xun Tianji has killed quite a few people too. Why don't you try to reason with him? Surely you can't beat him?"

"Also, if you really think you can beat the two of us brothers, we don't mind having a group fight."

Another loud laugh rang out in the distance, followed by a plume of black smoke descending from the sky, which transformed into Xun Tianji's figure.

"Excellent, well said!"

Xun Tianji was always eager to watch the excitement and wasn't afraid of things getting out of hand.

As soon as they appeared, they clapped their hands and said, "In my opinion, it's not enough for the two of you to fight one. How about we split into three groups and have a free-for-all?"

"The kind where only one person can walk out alive in the end."

Ji Yuan didn't speak, but kept his divine sense alert to his surroundings.

As things stand now, just as Xiao Xuan said, there are very few Core Formation cultivators left in the entire Rakshasa City.

Cultivators kill cultivators, and so do ghosts.

The rest of them couldn't even run away.

Like Mu Xueyao... Ji Yuan had no choice but to let her go to the outer realm first.

Many of the Black and White Temple cultivators who were disciples of the Yin Ghost Sect also went to the outer realms to save their lives.

As for independent cultivators, there are not many left.

As for the present situation, if they really joined forces to kill Xiao Xuan, Ji Yuan would still have a chance to try, but with Xun Tianji added to the mix... he had no idea. Even if they could kill him, Xun Tianji would most likely end up picking up the kill.

Just as Ji Yuan was thinking of stepping forward to pull Qiu Qianhai back, he suddenly heard the voice of the ghost messenger rang out among the four of them.

"If you guys really fought, it would be quite a sight."

"But, well, with that kid around, I don't think a fight will break out."

Although the ghost messenger did not name names, Ji Yuan knew it was referring to him.

"Who? Lord Ghost Messenger, you might as well just say so, I'll kill him first."

Xun Tianji crossed his arms and smiled confidently.

"Never mind, that's not good."

The ghost clicked its tongue.

Standing on the rooftop opposite Ji Yuan, Xiao Xuan spoke up after a brief silence: "Lord Ghost Messenger, the Ten Thousand Ghosts Paying Homage to the Ancestor Formation is now considered broken, and most of the rogue cultivators are dead. How can we consider the first trial of the Inner Domain over?"

"With so many fewer people, how will we proceed with the next two trials?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan couldn't help but glance at Xiao Xuan again.

The fact that Xiao Xuan could ask such a question shows that this bastard Xiao Xuan has some ability; he's not like Xun Tianji, who's just a brute.

"I've appeared here to tell you about this."

The ghost spoke with a chuckle, seemingly in an extremely good mood.

"Too many people have died, which is beyond my expectations. Therefore, there is no need to start the next two trials, because even if we did, we wouldn't have enough manpower."

"Let the trials of Rakshasa City come to an end."

"Next, you will exchange for treasures. After that, you can either leave this place or go to the core area, it's up to you."

"..."

...The trial is over just like that?!

Ji Yuan was somewhat surprised when he heard this.

From this perspective, the number of cultivators killed or injured in Rakshasa City was indeed somewhat beyond the Ghost Messenger's expectations; otherwise, given its nature, it would have certainly wanted to kill them all.

No, looking at it now, it really almost killed them all.

After the ghost messenger finished speaking to the four, its voice resounded throughout the entire city of Rakshasa.

The content they say is generally the same: after the trial is over and you exchange for the treasure, you either leave or go to the core area.

Xun Tianji withdrew his gaze and looked at Ji Yuan and the other two again. "Well? You'll all be heading to the core area soon, won't you?"

"Go away. The resources that can truly assist in Nascent Soul formation are all in the core area. This is just a small-scale operation at best."

Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Xuan blurted out.

"And you?"

Xun Tianji then turned to look at Ji Yuan and Qiu Qianhai.

"go."

Ji Yuan coldly uttered a single word.

"Alright, then we'll meet again in the core area." Xun Tianji smiled. "But it's a deal-breaker in the core area, where we'll determine who's superior and who's dead."

After saying that, he took out his identity jade token, poured his magic power into it, and instantly disappeared.

Ji Yuan and Xiao Xuan exchanged a glance.

"Let's go!"

After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he and Qiu Qianhai flew away backwards, as did Xiao Xuan on the opposite side.

"Let's find a place to exchange the treasures first, then discuss it, and then go to the core area," Ji Yuan said telepathically.

"it is good."

The two then found a two-story tavern nearby. Qiu Qianhai pushed open the door without any restraint and barged in. It was vaguely visible that there were traces of ghosts and cultivators fighting inside, and the treasure was long gone.

So after they came in, they each took out their identity jade tokens.

Qiu Qianhai teleported away without even glancing at him.

Ji Yuan glanced down at his identity jade token. Wasn't his high-profile killing spree all for these contribution points?

After a long period of preparation, the time to reap the rewards has finally arrived.

How could we not feast our eyes on it first?

Silver Thirteen: 9,173

Tsk, still not enough.

After fighting for so long, I still haven't collected 10000 contribution points, which is really embarrassing.

While pondering, Ji Yuan had a sudden thought, and then he vanished from that place.

When he could see his surroundings again, he saw those familiar orbs of light.

The treasures on it were revealed, and Ji Yuandu was filled with excitement.

But before he could get excited for long, he saw a... puppet in front of him?

The bronze puppet, draped in tattered burlap, looked rather thin and tall.

"You are... Senior Ghost Messenger?"

Ji Yuan asked tentatively.

The only possible explanation for Ji Yuan's appearance at this time, especially in this manner, is that of a ghost messenger.

"it's me."

The ghost turned around and gave Ji Yuan a sizing look from head to toe without any attempt to hide it.

"Tsk tsk, tell me, what do you want, kid?"

"Among the cultivators who came in this time, you have the highest contribution points."

"What? Me?"

This was something Ji Yuan hadn't expected.

"I thought it would be Xun Tianji."

"No, he didn't break through the array's core, and his spiritual sense wasn't as strong as yours. So when he killed people afterward, he didn't kill as many as you did."

A ghost messenger casually uttered a word that revealed a heavenly secret.

"I see."

Ji Yuan nodded.

"Alright, tell me, what do you want, kid?" The ghost messenger chuckled. "If you had 10000 contribution points, I wouldn't mind exchanging them for a rare treasure for you to use, but now..."

The ghost messenger shook his head. "I can only let you exchange for some ordinary treasures."

...Ha, what are you saying if I won't let you exchange it?

What nonsense are you talking about?

Ji Yuan brought up the control panel and glanced at it discreetly.

Upgrading the [Cave Heaven] requires 5 fourth-tier demon cores, regardless of grade or attribute.

Neither the [spiritual vein] nor the [meditation room] is needed.

The Enlightenment Chamber only requires 5 Tier 3 Demon Cores of the five attributes. However, you can ask around at the Transparent Fruit Tree. If you find any, you should get them.

Ji Yuan is currently hampered by his lack of comprehension, and his speed in comprehending the "Sword Canon" has become very slow.

【Tiangongfang】requires one fourth-tier demon core, with no attribute requirements.

[Fishpond] This is really tough. Five fourth-tier demon cores with five attributes. Are you sure you're not afraid of driving this fish farmer to his death?

[Chicken Coop] No need for a fourth-tier demon core, it's a good item.

[Pigpen] requires 3 fourth-tier demon cores, each with one of the three attributes: water, fire, and earth.

[Cave Abode] requires 2 Tier 4 Demon Cores, with no attribute requirements.

[Spirit Field] requires 2 wood-attribute demon cores.

The [Scripture Pavilion] requires one Tier 1 Demon Core, with no attribute requirements.

[Mass Gravesite] Not needed.

Both the [Honeycomb] and [Ant Nest] require 2 Tier 4 Demon Cores, and there are no attribute requirements.

The [Spirit Energy Cannon] requires a fifth-tier demon core, something you probably couldn't find even if you searched the entire Extreme Abyss Continent.

The [Martial Arts Arena] also requires two fourth-tier demon cores, with no attribute requirements.

Ji Yuan took stock of the above...

A total of 25 fourth-tier demon cores are needed, of which only the [Pigpen] and [Spirit Field] have specific attribute requirements.

The rest either have no attributes or five attributes, which is fine.

Ji Yuan originally thought he had enough contribution points.

But when the time came, they realized they hadn't even collected half of the fourth-tier demon cores.

However, for him, the most urgent task at present is to exchange for the materials to upgrade the [Spirit Field] to level 5. This matter is related to his Nascent Soul formation, so it is better to make arrangements as soon as possible.

In addition, there's the [Pigpen]. Firstly, the demon cores needed to upgrade the [Pigpen] also have attribute requirements, and secondly, the spiritual effects after upgrading the [Pigpen]... are very necessary for Ji Yuan's physique.

So after some thought, he said to the ghost messenger, "This junior needs two early-stage fourth-tier wood-attribute demon cores, and also seven taels of Yaotu sand."

"Early-stage fourth-tier demon cores cost 1000 contribution points each, with random attributes, but since you specifically requested the wood attribute... you'll have to pay an extra 100 contribution points."

"Therefore, two fourth-tier wood-attribute demon cores require 2200 contribution points."

After hearing what the ghost messenger said, Ji Yuan knew that it was trying to kill him.

But when you're under someone's roof, you have no choice but to bow your head.

"exchange."

Ji Yuan said through gritted teeth.

The bronze puppet-like face of the ghost messenger was beaming with a smile. "7 liang of sand and soil require 210 contribution points."

"exchange."

Immediately, the characters on the jade tablet in Ji Yuan's hand began to dance, and with a wave of his hand, two transparent orbs of light appeared in front of him.
