Immortality begins with upgrading buildings

Chapter 74 Flying Boat [Seeking First Subscription]

Ji Yuan naturally remembered this matter.

That was when he came to pay his respects to Xu Fugui on the first day of the Lunar New Year, just as the old man had to return to the Water Dragon Sect on business.

Xu Fugui said that when he returned from the Water Dragon Sect, he would bring Ji Yuan a nice gift.

However, Ji Yuan didn't take this to heart, and even forgot about it for a while... He wasn't the type to rely on others.

So when Xu Fugui brought this up again, he felt a pleasant surprise.

He quickly looked down.

What Xu Fugui took out was... a mirror?!

The mirror has a smooth surface that reflects people very clearly, while the back is made of bronze and looks quite old, with rust covering the bronze surface.

Not only that, he also sensed a familiar aura emanating from the mirror.

So he immediately took out his durable and powerful breastplate from his storage bag.

"what?"

Xu Fugui also noticed something was wrong. "Where did you get this? Let me see it."

"Oh, someone gave it to me." Ji Yuan smiled and handed it over.

"Ha, so you broke someone's head and made him give it to you, huh?"

After Xu Fugui took it, he carefully examined it, then picked it up and looked at it very seriously before drawing a conclusion after a long while.

"Our mirrors are both fake."

"Fake?"

Ji Yuan asked in surprise, "What kind of talk is this? Can this magical artifact be fake?"

"Yes, to put it bluntly, they are fakes. Both of these mirrors should be replicas of a magical artifact, but yours has probably been copied several times."

After Xu Fugui finished speaking, he threw both mirrors into Ji Yuan's hands.

"Next time I go back, I'll find out more about this mirror and see what its origins are. It turns out it's a replica."

It was only at this moment that Ji Yuan discovered the ancient bronze mirror that Xu Fugui had given him.

It's actually a high-grade magic artifact!

Seemingly noticing Ji Yuan's surprise, Xu Fugui stroked his beard with satisfaction and chuckled, "Young Ji, do you know why I gave you this magical artifact?"

"That's because Grandpa Xu loves me."

Ji Yuan smiled naturally.

Xu Fugui: "..."

"Have you mastered the mirror-stacking technique yet?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan immediately understood Xu Fugui's meaning and hurriedly said, "Not yet, not yet. Grandpa Xu means that this magic artifact can help me practice the Mirror of Deposition."

Xu Fugui nodded and hummed in agreement.

"The mirror itself is similar to an illusion, and the function of the mirror in your hand is to project an illusion. Both have their merits. Take it back and think about it carefully, and you'll understand. If you still don't understand, come and ask me."

"Thank you, Grandpa Xu!"

Not only did I obtain a high-grade magic artifact, but it was also a high-grade magic artifact that would help me cultivate magic.

In comparison, the little gift that Ji Yuan gave out on the first day of the Lunar New Year was really nothing at all.

"Yes, cultivate diligently and strive to join the Water Dragon Sect in three years."

Xu Fugui smiled, looking quite happy. "Go ahead."

Just as Ji Yuan was about to leave, he remembered something and took out a communication talisman from his storage bag.

"Grandpa Xu, this was given to me by Senior Brother Hong Xiuwen during the last Water Dragon Sect selection. Do you know him?"

"Hong Xiuwen?"

Xu Fugui frowned and pondered for a moment, then slowly shook his head. "There are nearly ten thousand disciples in the Water Dragon Sect. It's impossible for him to know them all. Which district was he in charge of during the selection process?"

"The Talisman Zone".

"That's from Sifang Island, that's good. It's a good thing that he values ​​you."

Xu Fugui stroked his beard and smiled, his smile growing even happier. "Make the best of it. Once you come to the Water Dragon Sect, you'll realize how vast the Canglu Continent is. This mere Yunyu Marsh is nothing."

"Okay."

After leaving the magic area, Ji Yuan naturally came to the magic weapon area, but before he could speak, Xu Fugui's voice came from behind him.

"Old Huang, remember to give our junior brother Ji a discount."

"Um?"

Old Huang raised his head and looked at Ji Yuan in front of him with a puzzled expression. Then, sensing the aura of the late stage of Qi Refining, the middle-aged cultivator smiled a little more.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Ji."

Although they are both cultivators of the Water Dragon Sect, they are both at the late stage of Qi Refining, so they can be called fellow Daoists.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Huang."

Ji Yuan bowed slightly and said, "I would like to purchase a high-grade flying boat. What is the price?"

Old Huang casually glanced at the counter, and three palm-sized flying boats immediately appeared on it.

One is green, one is red, and one is transparent.

"These three are standard flying boats sold by our Water Dragon Sect, and they are high-grade magic artifacts."

Old Huang slowly introduced, "This blue ship is called the Xuan Turtle Ship. Its main material is the shell of a Xuan Turtle. The bottom is engraved with Xuan Water Protection Array Patterns, and there are also water-repelling beads hanging at the stern."

"This allows it to not only fly, but also defend and avoid water. Once activated, this Xuan Shui Formation can withstand three attacks from a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan's heart stirred, and he began to carefully examine the Xuan Turtle Boat.

Its entire body is blue, unlike the long, spindle-shaped flying boats of ordinary flying boats. Its shape is flatter and rounder, and some black tortoise shell plates can be seen on it.

"How about the price?"

"Spirit stones... eighty in total."

Old Huang made a hand gesture.

"Eighty pieces?"

This is almost double the price of a mid-grade magic ship. Damn, it truly lives up to its reputation as a high-grade flying boat...

Xu Fugui, standing behind, said, "This thing flies like a tortoise, and even with an array, it's just going to stay and get beaten up."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan's heart stirred, and he said, "I would like to trouble you to introduce the other two flying boats."

"Yes, the red one is called the Crimson Sky Ship. It is made entirely of Crimson Flame Crystal and Flowing Cloud Iron. It is engraved with a Fire Burning Array. When activated, it can unleash a wave of fire, equivalent to a full-force attack from the late Qi Refining stage. Moreover, it consumes fewer spirit stones during the day. The price is 85 spirit stones."

After speaking, Lao Huang pointed to the last one, a flying boat made of a material that was somewhat transparent.

"This is the best of the three, and also the most expensive, costing 90 spirit stones."

"Oh?"

Ji Yuan isn't afraid of high prices, he's only afraid that the quality isn't good enough.

"This flying boat is called the Mirage Boat. It is made entirely of Mirage Stone, and its semi-glassy texture makes it extremely concealed. Moreover, the interior of the hull is inlaid with the eye of a Phantom Sable. Once activated, it can be surrounded by a faint mist, making it impossible to detect. It can be said to come without a trace and go without a trace."

As soon as Lao Huang finished speaking, Ji Yuan immediately made a decision.

The Lost Boat is definitely the one to choose, no question about it.

It's fine if the price is a bit high. Now is the time when money is no object, so naturally I have to buy the best.

Just as he was about to speak, Xu Fugui behind him spoke up again: "These three are all standard models. These are the three types of flying boats that the people of the Water Dragon Sect use the most."

"Old Huang, don't you have any special ones, the kind that's specially refined?"

There's a trick to buying a premium flying boat?

Ji Yuan was surprised, but also relieved that Old Master Xu was there.

If it were me, I probably would have already taken the Lost Ship and left.

Old Huang glanced at Xu Fugui, as if making a pointed remark, then smiled slightly and said, "If Fellow Daoist Ji had come a few days ago, there probably wouldn't have been one, but today, there just happens to be one."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand again, and a flying boat with a completely black and purple body appeared on the counter.

Its shape resembles a willow branch, and the bow of the boat is like an eagle's beak, giving it a captivating aura even just by looking at it.
