Immortality begins with upgrading buildings

Chapter 404 Chasing Lightning! Stepping on Stars! [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Ji Yuan's original intention was to use lightning to leave directly from this Floating Pagoda Mountain, return to the core area, then activate the Golden Ghost Token to return to the inner domain, and then have the ghost messenger send him out.

After all, without the protection of a Nascent Soul cultivator, he dared not roam freely on Mount Futu, where Nascent Soul cultivators were everywhere.

Having a trump card is one thing, but having a trump card means you can just play recklessly.

That would mean they wouldn't even know how they died.

Ji Yuan was only chasing lightning once. Normally, he should still be in this Futu Mountain, or at least still floating in mid-air.

But now?

He found himself in a wide, dark cave.

The cave entrance was right in front of us, and above and behind us were unidentified black rocks that seemed to be one whole.

Ji Yuan was surprised and immediately released his divine sense to explore in all directions.

But they discovered... this wasn't a cave at all!

Within Ji Yuan's sea of ​​consciousness, two enormous, pitch-black flying wheels appeared, and he was now inside the flying wheel on the left.

Looking at this pitch-black flying wheel that was dozens of miles in size, a name inexplicably popped into his mind.

Step on the Star Wheel!

"Damn it, could I really have ended up on this Star-Treading Wheel? Could it be because of my shout of 'Chasing Lightning'? The two are from the same source, so it's normal for them to attract each other. But... but isn't this Star-Treading Wheel a bit too big?"

"But now that the Star Wheel has summoned me, how can I take it away?"

As Ji Yuan was thinking, he noticed a wisp of aura beside him.

Or rather, the lightning-chasing cloud actually moved on its own.

Just like when Ji Yuan first saw it, it transformed into a tiny bolt of lightning, flew out from Ji Yuan's shoulder, and struck the stone wall beside him, or rather, the Star Wheel.

After that one moment, the entire Star Wheel seemed to be activated.

First, a white streak of light flashed across the two star-stepping wheels, and starlight appeared on the two originally pitch-black stone wheels.

In Ji Yuan's divine perception, the pair of Star Wheels also became dazzling and beautiful.

"this……"

Before Ji Yuan could even feel a surge of joy, he heard what sounded like a loud shout coming from below the Star Wheel.

"Look, the Star Wheel is moving!"

...This is...the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon?

Ji Yuan had encountered him for so long in the Flame Ash Desert, so he naturally recognized his voice immediately.

Upon hearing the sound, Ji Yuan instinctively thought of peeking out to investigate.

But before he could make a move, he realized what was happening and understood the terror of these Nascent Soul stage monsters.

Peeking out like that would be suicide, wouldn't it?

He immediately released his divine sense and swept it over, instantly seeing the situation below clearly.

But it was only after he saw it clearly that he was extremely surprised.

Because the Nascent Soul cultivators under this Star Wheel... were there in large numbers, and with just one glance, he saw the sect leader of the righteous Xuanqing Sect—True Lord Xuanqing.

The Joyful Goddess of Yunya Temple.

The master of Tingtao Pavilion.

The old demon of the demonic path, Tian Sha, has already spoken.

The Bone Nightmare Elder Demon of the Bone Nightmare Sect was also here, but Ji Yuan did not see Qiu Qianhai, whom he was worried about.

Moreover, this Bone Nightmare Demon did indeed look like he was seriously injured, his face deathly pale.

Besides these, there's the Soul Refining Hall Master and the old serpent from the Xuan Snake Mansion.

Mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from both the righteous and demonic paths have gathered here.

Overall, the demonic path still has the advantage, because just looking at the number of people in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, the demonic path has four, while the righteous path only has three.

Ji Yuan's divine sense also discovered the reason why they had all gathered here.

The reason they were all gathered together was obviously to seize the treasure.

At this moment, on this mountaintop that everyone is vying for.

One fruit, no bigger than a fist, stood out prominently among the dark branches.

The translucent, pale pink peel is as thin as glazed porcelain, with six silver-white spiral patterns on its surface. The patterns spiral upwards from the stem and finally converge at the top into a tiny golden ray.

The entire fruit is enveloped in a faint layer of bluish mist, which flows slowly with the slight trembling of the fruit, appearing from a distance like a floating pinkish-white halo.

"This is... a Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit!"

Ji Yuan couldn't hide his surprise when he recognized the item.

Even among fourth-tier rare and precious materials, this item would be extremely valuable.

Its core effect is singular: to enhance the cultivation level of Nascent Soul cultivators.

It is precisely because of this that these Nascent Soul cultivators are all vying for it here.

"Especially the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon and the Profound Pure True Monarch, they should both be stuck at the threshold of advancing to the late Nascent Soul stage. If they can obtain this Six-Turn Nascent Soul Fruit, they will be able to get a glimpse of the late Nascent Soul stage. When that time comes... even if they face the Black and White Twin Fiends of the Black and White Temple again, they will be able to get along with them calmly."

With just a simple scan of his divine sense, Ji Yuan was able to assess the situation on the scene.

But as soon as he scanned with his divine sense, he heard Xuanqing Zhenjun suddenly speak.

"There's someone on the Star-Treading Wheel, and... a Core Formation cultivator at that?"

Xuanqing Zhenjun shouted the first half of his sentence very loudly.

But when he said the second half of that sentence, he himself was a little confused.

I almost thought I had misjudged him.

Ji Yuan did not show himself, but upon hearing Xuanqing Zhenjun's words, he could not hide his surprise.

...These damned Nascent Soul stage monsters, they have so many tricks up their sleeves.

Ji Yuan originally thought that the activated Star Wheel could block detection, but now it seems that he should have crawled into the stone coffin as soon as it appeared.

But who could have known it would be like this?

"Are you serious? I can't sense anyone."

The Heavenly Demon looked at True Monarch Xuanqing with suspicion.

"Heh, you Heavenly Fiend Old Demon don't have the Xuanqing Spirit Eye of the Xuanqing Sect. It would be strange if you could see that."

The master of Tingtao Pavilion sneered.

"How did this Core Formation cultivator get onto this Star-Treading Wheel?"

The Lord of the Soul Palace frowned in deep thought.

"I don't know, he's too afraid to show his face. You can see if you recognize him."

After Xuanqing Zhenjun finished speaking, he waved his right hand forward, and a man's appearance immediately appeared in front of him.

Ji Yuan was unaware at first, but when he scanned it with his divine sense, he discovered that the portrait manifested by Xuanqing Zhenjun was actually his true appearance.

He hurriedly reached up to touch his face, only to discover that the shape-shifting talisman on his body had somehow become ineffective.

...That damned Star Wheel, it's always helping others mess with me.

Ji Yuan was surprised, but those few demonic cultivators were even more surprised.

Especially the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace.

He had watched Ji Yuan die at his hands, but now... But he was a Nascent Soul cultivator after all, and he quickly realized the reason.

"An illusion! No wonder this kid was able to retrieve the treasure from the blood pool."

The Lord of the Black Serpent Palace murmured to himself.

The Bone Nightmare Demon and his companions made no attempt to conceal their expressions, and even the Joyful Lady showed shock.

Xuanqing Zhenjun and Tingtao Pavilion Master immediately understood what was going on.

They exchanged a glance, then looked simultaneously at the Joyful Lady beside them and asked softly:

"Does Fellow Daoist Huanxi know this person?"

"know."

A complex emotion flashed in Huanxi Niangniang's eyes before she said, "He is Ji Yuan, also known as... Old Demon Ji."

"It's him!"

The Pavilion Master of Tingtao immediately spoke up.

Xuanqing Zhenjun had clearly heard some news, so he frowned slightly. "Wasn't it said that this Old Demon Ji was actually Nightmare Zhenjun in disguise?"

"Yes, so he is the real Old Demon Ji."

In a succinct way, the Joyful Lady immediately revealed Ji Yuan's identity to the two of them.

"If a Core Formation cultivator like him can ascend the Star-Stepping Wheel, how could we possibly fail?!"

The Heavenly Demon suddenly spoke, and then his figure transformed into a streak of black light, rising straight into the sky.

Upon seeing this, Ji Yuan, who was on the Star Wheel, felt a sense of panic.

...Could it be that this old demon has actually been defeated?

But upon further reflection, Ji Yuan felt a little more at ease.

If this old demon of heaven and earth truly possessed such abilities, why would he have waited until now?

They should have attacked long ago.

The reason I'm saying this now is simply because I feel resentful seeing a Core Formation cultivator like myself ascend the Star-Stepping Wheel, so I want to give it a try too.

as predicted.

The Heavenly Demon King flashed into the sky, arriving outside the Star Wheel in an instant.

Ji Yuan's heart was also at its peak.

But at that moment, the Star Wheel suddenly began to rotate, and as it rotated back and forth, a belt of stardust and gravel immediately formed outside the Star Wheel.

The moment the Heavenly Fiend Demon entered the gravel area, he was trapped in place as if he were stuck in a quagmire.

Moreover, the stardust particles extending from the Star Wheel were like meteorites, striking the trapped Heavenly Fiend Old Demon one by one.

On the Star Wheel, Ji Yuan watched this scene and his eyes lit up instantly.

"This is... a formation?!"

Ji Yuan subconsciously looked up. Although it was said that ghost messengers could not detect the situation in this core area, who knew?

And I'm still inside this Star Wheel...

If the ghost messenger had this ability, he would definitely be keeping a close watch on this place right now.

Within the stardust and gravel belt, the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon, relying on his formidable cultivation, shattered dozens of meteorites in succession before finally succumbing to the endless stardust and gravel belt and retreating from mid-air back to the ground.

But his actions did not make others laugh at him; instead, they became even more cautious.

The strength of the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon is self-evident.

Even he couldn't break the formation, so how did this Core Formation cultivator manage to get up there?

Just as they were still trying to figure out how Ji Yuan had boarded the Star Wheel, a mocking laugh came from above.

"Senior Xuanshe, are the treasures in the blood pool still working well?"

"You took it from me, you probably won't dare tell anyone."

Upon hearing this, the demonic cultivators present all turned to look at the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace.

Even the Xuanqing True Monarch and his group on the opposite side looked over.

They had naturally heard about the Blood Pool.

But everyone has heard that the treasure in the blood pool was taken away by a Core Formation cultivator.

But now it seems...

"Heh, brat, I have no grudge against you, and I even protected you once. Is this how you repay kindness with ingratitude?"

Lord Xuanshe sneered, "If I had known this would happen, I should have let Nightmare kill you back then."

Lord Xuanshe would never admit to such a thing.

If he admits it, all the Nascent Soul cultivators present will probably point their fingers at him.

"If that's not the case, why doesn't the senior make a solemn oath to prove his innocence?"

Ji Yuan's ambiguous voice came from the Star Wheel once again.

"Ignorant child, ha!"

Lord Xuanshe scoffed, too lazy to even bother with him.

But at that moment, Ji Yuan suddenly declared solemnly, "I, Ji Yuan, hereby swear by my inner demons that the treasure I obtained has been stolen by the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace. If there is any falsehood in this, may I die by my inner demons!"

A Core Formation cultivator making an oath based on their inner demons is even more serious than a vow made on the Great Dao.

The path to enlightenment may be delayed, but the inner demons... are right before our eyes.

The most dangerous part of advancing from Core Formation to Nascent Soul is the tribulation of inner demons!

Therefore, since Ji Yuan has now sworn an oath with his inner demons, there is no doubt that this matter must be true!

The treasures he seized from the blood pool have now fallen into the hands of the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace!

As soon as Ji Yuan said this, all the Nascent Soul cultivators present turned their gazes to the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace.

"Tsk tsk, I was wondering how a mere Core Formation cultivator could stop us. It turns out it really was you, Xuan She, who made the move."

The Soul Palace Master, shrouded in a black robe, chuckled sinisterly.

"Xuan She, congratulations on making a fortune! Among all of us, you've reaped the most rewards. I'm truly envious."

The old demon of Heavenly Fiend, who had just descended from the sky, said in a sarcastic tone.

"We're very curious about what kind of treasure it is. Fellow Daoist Xuan She, why don't you take it out so we can broaden our horizons?"

Xuanqing Zhenjun, who was watching from afar, also said something that seemed to enjoy the spectacle.

"It's truly laughable that you actually believe the nonsense of a Core Formation cultivator."

Lord Xuan She was also somewhat flustered. He hadn't expected that Ji Yuan would still be alive and appear here, and even risk his life to make a vow against his inner demons.

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon, who already harbored a grudge against him, immediately spoke up:

"Then why don't you make a solemn oath, and we will believe you."

The Xuan Snake Palace Master, with a gloomy expression, remained silent.

Ji Yuan's mocking voice came from above again.

"The most precious treasure is the Everlasting Water, which can prolong life. One sip can extend one's life by twenty years. There are a total of 30 sips, and now they have all fallen into the hands of the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace."

"What?! A treasure for extending lifespan!"

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon immediately exclaimed loudly, "Still 30 mouths, that's 600 years of lifespan! Fellow Daoist Xuan She, this isn't much different from breaking through to the late Nascent Soul stage, is it?"

"As expected of a treasure that can only be nurtured in a six-stage blood pool."

The old demon Bone Nightmare's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanshe, is this item available for trade? Our Xuanqing Sect needs some."

"Tingtao Pavilion also needs it."

After hearing about this, even the Pavilion Master of Tingtao, who had remained silent until now, couldn't help but speak up.

The Xuan Snake Palace Master, his face already ashen, looked up at the pair of pure black Star-Stepping Wheels floating in mid-air and said through gritted teeth:

"It was clearly only 3 bites, so where did the 30 bites come from!"

At this point, it makes no difference whether we admit it or not.

However, the change from 3 to 30 mouths is something the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace cannot handle.

"Ah, yes, yes, yes."

Ji Yuan said with a hint of sarcasm, "Senior is truly righteous. Thirty mouthfuls of Everlasting Youth Water have become only three mouthfuls in your hands."

"If you do business this way, how can you not make a fortune?"

"you!"

Lord Xuanshe realized that since Ji Yuan had made a vow to his inner demons first, nothing he said now would make a difference.

Once Ji Yuan speaks, all the Nascent Soul cultivators present will choose to believe him.

Just like now, the Soul Palace Master, who was originally standing opposite him, has somehow appeared behind him and blocked his way.

The Heavenly Fiend Old Demon and his group, who were originally vying for the Sixth-Turn Infant Heart Fruit, also tacitly turned their attention to him.

It seems like the righteous and the demonic paths are about to join forces.

After all, the Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit is here whether or not it's taken, but if the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace doesn't make a move, he might escape.

Thirty longevity treasures—that's enough to make them take action.

The Lord of the Black Serpent Palace realized this and became somewhat anxious, knowing that he had fallen into a dangerous situation.

He looked up and gave the figure on the Star Wheel one last sinister look.

"Kid, you better stay alive!"

"Hehe, don't worry, I won't die before you." Ji Yuan had already figured out what the Xuan Snake Palace Master meant as he spoke. This guy was definitely going to run away.

So, taking advantage of the fact that the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace had not yet left, he transmitted his voice and said:

"The Holy Fish King said he was truly blind to have befriended someone like you."

"What?!"

Although Lord Gangxuan Snake was very angry, he at least appeared normal and did not show any emotional fluctuations.

But this time it's different.

After Ji Yuan said these words, he seemed to have heard something unbelievable.

They even subconsciously looked up at the sky again.

At that moment, Ji Yuan even saw guilt, loneliness... and regret in his eyes.

"How is he now?"

The Lord of Xuanshe Palace, who had just been fighting with Ji Yuan to the death, now took the initiative to ask Ji Yuan questions.

"hehe."

Why would Ji Yuan, who had already spoken deliberately, say anything more?

The moment the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace killed him in the illusion, Ji Yuan had already sentenced him to death in his heart.

Although their time together was short, their grudges were no less intense than those of the Bone Nightmare Demon.

Given time, when Ji Yuan has the strength to make his own demands.

The first thing is to come and demand an explanation from the Lord of the Xuan Snake Mansion!

"Fellow Daoist Xuanshe, why don't you take out this Everlasting Youth Water and trade it with us? This item is valuable, and I'm afraid you can't protect it by yourself."

The righteous Xuanqing Zhenjun offered a very friendly reminder.

If there really were 30 mouthfuls of the Elixir of Immortality, the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace felt that he would be perfectly willing to give up 10 mouthfuls as a trade.

But there were only 3 bites.

transaction?

Ha, it's not even enough for me to use!

"Okay... fine then."

The moment the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace uttered his words, the Nascent Soul cultivators immediately perked up.

They naturally assumed that the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace had relented, but at that moment, they saw the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace, dressed in green robes, suddenly transform into a streak of green light and flee southward.

"Heh, trying to run away?"

The Heavenly Demon Lord sneered and immediately transformed into a beam of light to give chase.

On the demonic path, the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon, who had a grudge against him, was sent, while on the righteous path, the most powerful Xuanqing True Monarch was sent.

But just as the two of them chased away the streak of light that the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace had transformed into, the Lord of the Black Serpent Palace reappeared from the same spot.

He glanced back at the Star Wheel in mid-air one last time, and finally avoided the Soul Palace Master's attack, fleeing to the due north.

But once he left, no one chased after him anymore.

All are not fools.

If we chase after the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace now, wouldn't we be handing over the Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit?

So even the two righteous cultivators, the Pavilion Master of Tingtao Pavilion and the Joyful Lady, stopped pursuing the matter.

The Bone Nightmare Demon and the Soul Palace Master exchanged a glance, and then seemed to exchange a few words without moving.

On the Star Wheel, Ji Yuan, who had been observing everything, also noticed something amiss.

The Bone Nightmare Demon and the Soul Palace Master dared not pursue, fearing they would gain nothing from either side, so they decided to hold onto one.

However, the three righteous cultivators, including the Pavilion Master of Tingtao Pavilion, probably didn't think that way.

Their actions may seem like a collaboration with these demonic cultivators, but their real intention... is most likely to force the Lord of the Xuan Snake Palace to leave.

Otherwise, the demonic path has four Nascent Soul cultivators, while the righteous path only has three. If they were to fight to the death, they would definitely suffer a loss.

Just as Ji Yuan was thinking, the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon and the Xuanqing True Monarch, who had originally gone to chase after the illusion of the Xuan Snake Palace Master, also flew back.

When they returned, the righteous and the demonic paths were clearly separated.

A false alliance always crumbles at the slightest touch.

For Ji Yuan, what happened next was just something to watch the show.

Both the righteous and demonic paths need this Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit, so a great battle is inevitable.

However, his mind was not on the great battle he was watching.

He was completely focused on how to obtain the Star-Treading Wheel, this priceless treasure.

After all, no matter how much they fought over the Sixth-Rank Infant Heart Fruit, they wouldn't get any of it for themselves, and it wouldn't enhance their strength in the slightest. But the Star-Stepping Wheel was different.

If Ji Yuan could obtain this extraordinary treasure, he wouldn't even dare to imagine how fast his Nascent Soul stage could be.

The lightning bolt that was formed from the lightning disappeared inside after the Star-Treading Wheel was awakened, and has not been heard from since.

Even Ji Yuan, the master, couldn't sense its existence.

He also tried to refine the Star-Stepping Wheel with his magic power, but no matter how much magic power he poured in, it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea, leaving no trace.

He then tried to communicate with the Star-Treading Wheel using his divine sense, attempting to see if there was any consciousness within it.

After all, some high-level magical artifacts may contain artifact spirits.

But no matter how Ji Yuan tried to communicate, the Star Wheel didn't respond at all.

It appears to be a completely inanimate object.

If this won't work, and that won't work, all Ji Yuan can do is wait.

He waited, but the fighting beneath the Star Wheel did not stop for a moment.

The good and evil factions remained divided, and the battle raged on.

Xuanqing Zhenjun was facing off against Tian Sha Lao Mo.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the two chose to fight right next to the Star Wheel, as if they didn't want to waste even the aftershocks of the battle, hoping to use them to break through the ring of stardust and sand surrounding the Star Wheel.

The Lord of the Soul Palace was fighting against the Lord of the Listening Waves Pavilion.

Both of these holy lands are located in the northern part of the Abyss Continent, and they are old neighbors... so when they fight now, it seems as if they are holding back some of their feelings.

As for the Bone Nightmare Demon and the Joyful Lady...

Previously, when they fought at the Blood Pool, Lady Huanxi had even joined forces with the Bone Nightmare Demon to deal with him.

But now the two have become enemies.

In Ji Yuan's opinion, the Lady of Joy should be more ruthless in dealing with the two of them.

Because she also knew that the Bone Nightmare Demon was currently seriously injured, and if she could capture the demon in one fell swoop...

The returns might be much greater than those from the Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit.

However...

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Even if the Bone Nightmare Demon is injured, he is still the strongest genius of the Extreme Abyss Continent in the past few hundred years.

The Lady of Joy cannot subdue him in a short time.

"Therefore, this battle will ultimately fall on the shoulders of the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon and the Mysterious Pure True Monarch."

Having already revealed his identity, Ji Yuan no longer bothered to hide it, even peeking out to watch the play.

Anyway, they can't fight their way up.

"These two seem evenly matched, but it seems... that True Monarch Xuanqing has the upper hand, especially his Xuanqing Spirit Eye, which can always spot the Heavenly Fiend Old Demon's flaws in the first instant."

Ji Yuan narrowed his eyes and noticed that a blue light would occasionally flash in Xuanqing Zhenjun's eyes.

This feeling... made him want to unleash his Insightful Divine Eye and compete with it.

The battle of magic continued, but each of them would try to snatch the Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit in between their battles.

The result was naturally futile.

Ji Yuan watched with great interest; such a life-or-death battle between Nascent Soul cultivators was a rare sight.

Watching this battle not only allows you to learn a lot about combat techniques, but more importantly, it gives you advance knowledge of the methods used by these Nascent Soul stage monsters...

Consider it preparation for killing them.

Just as Ji Yuan was engrossed in watching, he suddenly sensed a familiar aura.

"Um?"

He instinctively turned around and looked at the spot where Zhu Dian had disappeared.

Just a moment ago, he did indeed sense the aura of the electric current.

But this aura was fleeting.

When he turned around, he found that the aura had disappeared.

"This is……"

When Zhu Dian made a move, Ji Yuan couldn't sit still any longer.

He hurriedly got up and went to the spot where the aura had just emanated, trying to inject a trace of magic power into it.

But in that instant, he felt a tremendous suction force coming from the Star-Stepping Wheel.

The suction force almost instantly drained all the magical power from his dantian.

This immediate release made Ji Yuan's face turn deathly pale.

Even her body began to tremble involuntarily.

After the suction force drained the mana from his dantian, it did not stop, as if it wanted to take away his blood pill as well.

"Damn it, with my mid-stage Core Formation cultivation and the Blood Core Realm of the second Golden Core stage... my magical power isn't much different from that of a peak Core Formation cultivator."

"To be completely drained in an instant, what kind of monster is this?!"

Before the thought even crossed Ji Yuan's mind, he had already swallowed two drops of the Millennium Spirit Milk.

The spiritual milk entered the body and immediately transformed into pure magical power, which was then refined.

The magical power returned to the dantian.

The suction force immediately stopped plundering Ji Yuan's Blood Pill and began to continue absorbing his magical power.

But this only gave Ji Yuan a slight sense of relief.

Because he discovered that the faster the magic power recovered, the faster the suction force absorbed it.

...Damn it, what kind of thing did Zhu Dian find for me?

They're not going to skin me alive, are they?

Even after two drops of the millennium-old spiritual milk were administered, it only lasted for less than two breaths.

Ji Yuan had no choice but to swallow the two drops of the thousand-year-old spiritual milk.

The pure magical power was refined and spread out, but it was immediately swept away as soon as it entered the dantian.

At this moment, Ji Yuan felt as if he had transformed into a magic converter.

Its sole purpose is to convert the abundant spiritual energy within the millennium-old spiritual milk into magical power.

With such a powerful absorption effect from the Star Wheel, a mere four drops of Millennium Spirit Milk would certainly not be enough to satisfy its hunger.

Four drops, six drops, eight drops...

Later, Ji Yuan simply took out a whole bottle of Millennium Spirit Milk and placed it in front of him. He swallowed it drop by drop, rhythmically, and then absorbed it into his body.

After a while.

Ji Yuan had no idea how many drops of millennium-old spiritual milk he had refined.

All he knew was that the entire bottle of millennium-old spiritual milk in front of him was already empty.

In addition, his body had become numb.

If it weren't for the fact that he not only had the cultivation level of the mid-stage Core Formation realm but was also a body cultivator at the Tendon Forging realm, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand even this conversion of magical power.

Meridians, Dantian.

If they were even slightly weak, they would probably have been drained dry.

"Come on, let's see today whether you can take it or I can handle it!"

After Ji Yuan drank the jade bottle containing over a hundred drops of millennium-old spiritual milk, he immediately took out another bottle from his storage bag.

Ji Yuan's current [Spirit Vein] can produce one drop of Thousand-Year Spirit Milk per month. In the years he has been in the Extreme Abyss Continent, he has basically been breaking through in seclusion. Even if he occasionally fights with others, drinking one drop of Thousand-Year Spirit Milk is enough for him.

Therefore, the millennium-old spiritual milk he has preserved is quite considerable.

Beneath the Star Wheel, the fighting continued.

However, Ji Yuan had no time to investigate further; it seemed that the righteous and demonic factions had reached some kind of deal.

Because now, apart from True Monarch Xuanqing and Old Demon Tiansha, the others have stopped fighting.

Everyone was watching them.

It's like they just need to decide who wins and who loses.

However, the more they fought, the more obvious the gap became between Xuanqing Zhenjun and Tiansha Laomo.

The Heavenly Fiend Demon was ultimately no match for the Mysterious Pure True Lord.

It's only a matter of time before they are defeated.

Time passed slowly, and Ji Yuan was still being drained, acting as a magic power converter.

Before long, the bottle of Millennium Spirit Milk was almost empty again.

Ji Yuan seemed to have finally seen a glimmer of hope.

Because the suction force emanating from this Star Wheel is gradually fading and weakening.

However, the aura of electricity grew stronger and stronger, becoming more and more pronounced.

Moreover, after expending a massive amount of magical power, Ji Yuan finally felt a sense of familiarity with the Star-Stepping Wheel.

Because he was next to Zhu Dian, he also sensed another unfamiliar yet familiar aura.

It felt unfamiliar because it was the first time Ji Yuan had experienced this aura.

The reason it felt familiar was that after Ji Yuan had expended a huge amount of magic power, he felt that he had finally become somewhat close to the Star Wheel.

He didn't know how much time had passed.

Suddenly, a loud laugh rang out from below the Star Wheel.

"Fellow Daoists, this Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit... is a great gift from you."

Mysterious Pure True Lord!

The Six-Turn Infant Heart Fruit really did fall into his hands!

Ji Yuan was startled, but what shocked him even more in an instant was that he felt two powerful pressures descend upon him.

The Star-Treading Wheel can block a cultivator's methods, but it has little resistance to the pressure released by the cultivator.

Not only that, he also sensed who those two auras came from... the Black and White Duo!

Why are they here too?

Suddenly, an idea popped into Ji Yuan's mind.

...The secret of becoming a deity!

The Rakshasa Sea holds the secret to how Nascent Soul cultivators can advance to Deity Transformation cultivators!
