Chapter 1175: Chapter 411: Reunion with Liu Yuan, Old Friends Meet Again

A mid-tier three Dream Butterfly seems more powerful than these two late-stage tier three Serpents, especially in such a chaotic battle.

Not to mention, Ji Yuan has a swarm of Spirit-Devouring Bees and Fire-Traveling Army Ants.

With countless means at hand, if one person can’t handle a group of Core Formation cultivators, that would be a joke.

"Leave this to me."

Ji Yuan thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Fortunately, his cultivation has recently broken through to late-stage Core Formation, enhancing his strength in other aspects as well.

He was eager to find someone to verify his strength.

An experienced Core Formation peak cultivator would be perfect as a whetstone.

As for the Nascent Soul Stage... it’s too much, while lower levels can’t be felt.

Liu Yuan did not agree immediately, but simply looked at Ji Yuan, silent.

"Just a mere Core Formation peak, I’ve slain plenty in the Rashamon Sea, not to mention now."

Ji Yuan made a final sound transmission to explain, and then didn’t say much more about it.

"Come, drink."

He raised his wine cup, gesturing to the others.

Just after discussing the previous topic, Ji Yuan mentioned he could handle the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint.

The others looked at Ji Yuan with even more respect.

Regardless, this is indeed a cultivation realm where strength is paramount.

Their relationship with Ji Yuan wasn’t close enough, so naturally, they interacted in a less natural manner.

Liu Yuan stared at Ji Yuan for a few moments, finally transmitting his voice:

"I’ve been holding back because I’m confident I can break through to Core Formation peak within ten years... So what exactly is your cultivation level right now?"

Ji Yuan listened to these words, glanced at him, and smiled in reply:

"Probably similar to yours."

Anyway, there are enough cultivation resources; what’s lacking is just the painstaking effort.

But for this painstaking effort, Ji Yuan has many constructions assisting him.

Thus, he believes, achieving Core Formation peak within ten years should not be a problem.

Liu Yuan listened and asked no more.

After a round of eating and drinking, the conversation became more casual.

Kunyu Zhenren first glanced at Ji Yuan, then said to Yu Guang Zhenren:

"I remember Brother Yu Guang has been to Qingyou Sea before, right?"

"Yes, I went there by chance and quickly fled. Why, is Daoist Kunyu interested in Qingyou Sea?"

Yu Guang Zhenren turned his head, smilingly asking Kunyu Zhenren.

"Not Daoist Kunyu, it is I who is curious about Qingyou Sea."

Ji Yuan took over the conversation.

Yu Guang Zhenren turned back, "Oh? Qingyou Sea... is not a good place."

He pondered and said:

"Back then, when I was in Fake Pill Realm, I accidentally offended some Qiu Family members, leading to a chase all the way south, unintentionally entering Qingyou Sea."

"I can only say... it truly is a place where not even birds defecate."

Yu Guang Zhenren laughed at his own story.

"No Spiritual Qi, no Demon Beasts, and definitely no Treasures of Heaven and Earth. I didn’t even dare use magic there, fearing the mana would deplete and the Spirit Stones wouldn’t be enough."

"Still, it wasn’t too bad, as I managed to hide and survive for a year, eventually escaping my pursuers."

...That part aligns closely with my understanding.

Almost everyone who has been to Qingyou Sea says it’s a place where not even birds defecate.

Ji Yuan stayed silent for a moment.

Yu Guang Zhenren then continued introducing: "Qingyou Sea isn’t a forbidden land, basically, anyone who wants to go can go."

"How about this, Brother Li, if you’re interested, I’ll draft a sea map when I return, and you can follow it to find the place."

"If so, I’ll trouble Brother Yu Guang."

Ji Yuan heard this and stood up, bowing to him.

"It’s a small matter."

Yu Guang Zhenren also stood and returned the bow.

He mentioned the gathering’s conclusion, and with Zhenren Jinghong and Kunyu Zhenren having matters to discuss alone, they each departed.

Under the pine tree atop the mountain, only Ji Yuan and Liu Yuan remained.

Liu Yuan held his liquor gourd, raised his hand and collected the food from the table, then laid out fruits and pastries.

Ji Yuan then set up a sound insulation restriction around them.

Only then did the two relax.

"Did you really venture into Rashamon Sea? That’s unlike you. And caused such a commotion,"

With no outsiders present, Liu Yuan spoke more casually.

"Forget it."

Ji Yuan waved his hand, expressing a tone of helplessness: "Captured by a Nascent Soul monster, chased inside, to escape was sheer luck."

This part Ji Yuan did not lie.

"If there’s anything you need me for, just say the word, there’s no need for formality between us."

"Alright."

Ji Yuan nodded, "Remember to share information about Swallow Sea Island when you have time, I’ll make a trip there."

"Oh, such a big talk."

Liu Yuan said in shock.

Ji Yuan raised an eyebrow, "Certainly, it’s just a Core Formation peak. I’ve slain plenty in Rashamon Sea, not to mention now."

Ji Yuan believes the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, however strong, should be around Ma Gui’s level.

After all, any stronger would be like Xun Tianji’s rank.

This level of figure... a large part is due to having an Extreme Demon Monarch behind them.

A loose cultivator like the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, striving to reach Core Formation at such a level is extremely difficult.

"Alright, I’ll organize it over the next few days, then provide it to you."
