Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Jiang Hong spoke, and a faint blood light appeared behind him, casting even the lake at his feet into a bloody hue.

“I heard that last time you went back, you hugged your mother and cried for a long time, almost wanting to drink some milk… I wonder if it’s true?”

Ji Yuan spoke with eyes full of disdain.

“Courting death!”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hong, thinking of something, turned furious.

The blood nightmare old monster behind Ji Yuan also spoke eerily, “Young man, the name of a Nascent Soul powerhouse is not something you can insult. Today it seems you don’t intend to die well!”

Ji Yuan ignored him because Jiang Hong finally couldn’t hold back and was about to make a move.

Standing on the lake surface, he stomped hard with his foot, causing countless splashes of water.

The moment the splashes left the water surface, they were still transparent, but once airborne, they turned blood red.

Jiang Hong pointed his finger, and the floating blood-colored splashes instantly transformed into blood-red flying needles as fine as cow’s hair.

“Break–”

He shouted angrily, and all the blood-colored flying swords flew towards Ji Yuan.

As Jiang Hong made his move, Ji Yuan had already taken out the Golden Light Mirror gifted by Hundred Insects Old Immortal, and now he activated it into a defensive state.

The Golden Light Mirror appeared at his chest, like a Heart-Protecting Mirror, shining with golden light, firmly guarding him.

The blood-colored flying needles attacked but were all blocked by the Protective Golden Light.

Jiang Hong made his move.

The Black Fiend Sword Demon standing in the east also acted, slightly opening a slit in the sword box in his arms, from which two small black flying swords flew out.

As soon as this flying sword appeared, a thick resentment filled the surrounding area.

“Not good!”

Su Huaimin from the Sword Ruins was extremely sensitive to this Sword Qi, and he instantly sensed he was locked on.

“Run!”

Shiyan was even more decisive.

With his fake pill body in such a serious condition facing a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator.

Fight?

What difference does that make from seeking death?

But as it proved, even running… was almost no different from courting death.

Because the moment he flew out of this solitary island, a black demonic sword swept across the lake surface.

The Protective Spirit Light around Shiyan didn’t even hold for a blink before being pierced by the demonic sword.

The black sword light flashed by.

Su Huaimin didn’t even have time to react before he saw Shiyan’s body plunge into the lake.

Along with that, he saw another demonic sword.

A demonic sword so fast that even his Divine Sense couldn’t react to it, identical in speed, identical in Sword Qi.

It pierced through his Protective Sword Light and then pierced through his head.

The last thought he had before dying was… the sword, how fast the sword!

In the distance, while resisting Jiang Hong’s furious barrage of techniques, Ji Yuan sensed with his Divine Sense the deaths of Su Huaimin and Shiyan.

By then, five people had come out.

Alive, only Ji Yuan remained.

He was all alone, with nothing much to hesitate, nothing much to think about.

Run!

Just run.

Just as Ji Yuan’s thought arose, he noticed nearly ten escape lights approaching from the north, heading south.

Is it… the situation with Dongyu Mountain’s Spirit Vein has been resolved?

It seems the demon dao’s response was quite fast.

Seeing Jiang Hong charging forward with a Great Halberd, Ji Yuan threw out ten Celestial Thunder Seeds in one go.

“Boom boom boom—”

The sounds of explosions were endless.

Ten Celestial Thunder Seeds exploded simultaneously, and the effect was akin to a small-scale thunderstorm.

And Thunder Technique… was inherently the nemesis of demon cultivators.

Jiang Hong was forced to stop.

When he paused, Ji Yuan took out a Golden Book Page from the Storage Bag; he had used it once earlier against Mei Manor, and now he was even more proficient.

Ji Yuan didn’t know where this Fixed-point Teleportation Order would send him.

But wherever it might be… as long as it got him out of this golden cage.

Only by getting out of the cage was there a chance to escape.

Because just now, Ji Yuan had attempted to activate the Escape Shuttle Talisman Treasure inside the Storage Bag.

It wouldn’t activate, just like the last time at the Ancient Battlefield Ruins.

To use this talisman treasure, he had to get out of this cage.

Ji Yuan looked at the Golden Book Page in his hand, injected Mana, and applied a gentle force.

The Golden Book Page shattered inch by inch.

Then a giant golden beam appeared above, piercing through the golden cage and descending upon Ji Yuan, engulfing him completely.

“Hmm?”

The blood nightmare old monster behind naturally saw it clearly, realizing that this person was trying to escape!

Then he relentlessly attacked, forming a hand seal with both hands and summoning a blood-colored flag behind him.

With a wave of his hand, a blood-colored giant sword slashed down from the sky.

“Bang—”

The giant sword struck the golden beam, producing a muffled sound.

But the beam only trembled slightly for a moment before restoring its calm.

Ji Yuan wasn’t in the least bit flustered.

Even Mei Manor couldn’t break the teleportation light shield in one go, and a mid-stage Core Formation demon cultivator thought he could?

That was looking too lightly at the treasures of the Shang Court.

Opposite him, Jiang Hong looked up at the familiar golden beam, exclaiming in disbelief:

“What? You actually have a Fixed-point Teleportation Order!”

“Damn it, how can you have such a treasure!”

Jiang Hong’s voice was exaggerated.

His expression even twisted slightly.

While waiting for teleportation, Ji Yuan felt a bit uneasy in his heart, noticing Jiang Hong’s reaction… something was off.

Because Jiang Hong’s reaction seemed too fake.

So fake that anyone with a discerning eye could see he was acting.

This bastard probably had some other countermeasures, but this was a Fixed-point Teleportation Order.
