Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 913: Chapter 358: Yin Ghost Sect—Ji Yuan!

One to the left, one to the right.

Thousand Souls Banner and Yin Ghost Banner.

In fact, the last time Ji Yuan passed through here, upon seeing the dense Yin energy, he already wanted to take out these two banners and absorb some of it.

It’s just that it wasn’t convenient to reveal himself at that time.

Now it’s fine, no one will disturb him anymore.

Ji Yuan stepped into the rocky beach, and instantly, wisps of Yin energy rose from the cracks in the rocks, gradually condensing in the air.

Along this path ahead, there are still some Tier Two Yin Beasts; only when you reach the latter part will there be Tier Three Yin Beasts.

Ji Yuan has plenty of time, there’s no rush.

He intends to slowly slaughter his way through from beginning to end, firstly to see just how many Yin Beasts there are.

Secondly, these Yin Crystals are really good things; even if he can’t use them all, keeping them to sell to other Demon Cultivators later, they’re also in high demand.

Seeing more and more Yin Beasts emerging around, Ji Yuan gently waved his right hand, and the freshly obtained Blood Marrow Sword flew out.

Where the sword light passed, Yin Crystals tumbled.

...

Xing Shuang returned to her familiar Lindong City, only to find that it seemed somewhat strange upon her return.

Because the Black and White Divine Hall, which hadn’t been active for many years, suddenly resurfaced to patrol around and even started arresting people.

For a while, Lindong City, known as the "Demon City," became even more serene than East Border City, known as the "City of Righteousness."

Passing Demon Cultivators all walked meekly, smiling at whoever they saw.

The taverns, which usually echoed with the loudest cursing, were now quietly serving drinks.

If you accidentally made eye contact with someone, you had to raise your cup as a gesture.

They even clinked glasses from a distance.

’Could it be that the way I entered was wrong, or is this simply not Lindong City anymore?’

Seeing this scene, Xing Shuang couldn’t help but think so.

She sent messages to ask a few friends and quickly found out the reason.

It turned out someone was killing people inside Lindong City!

But when she saw the information about the killer, she was even more shocked.

...No wonder Brother Liu advised me to be careful before leaving.

Killing people in Lindong City, and yet it wasn’t Old Demon Ji?

’Ha, everyone thought Old Demon Ji went to Cangluo Continent, but who could’ve imagined that Old Demon Ji not only didn’t go to Cangluo but instead came to Lindong City?’

’I remember he first made a name for himself right here in Lindong City, and now he’s back, with a new way of doing things... A reckless-looking Old Demon Ji was relatively easier to deal with, but now he’s turned insidious.’

All of a sudden, Xing Shuang felt the whole Lindong City was about to fall into chaos.

Because Old Demon Ji not only became insidious, but he also reached Core Formation.

Before, when he was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, he could already stir up a city of chaos and panic.

Not to mention now that he’s reached Core Formation.

’Just returned and already killed someone in the city, as expected of Old Demon Ji!’

For some reason, the thought of what might happen next made Xing Shuang faintly look forward to it.

...

The great sun cycles around, day and night without rest.

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.

In the Secret Realm of the Northwest Sand Prison, Ji Yuan, dressed in a green robe, floated in the air, with two flag banners behind him surging with demonic energy, yet he himself held a Purple Sky Divine Thunder Magic Sword, like a god of thunder.

Righteous and demonic, merging uniquely within him.

’After a year, the Purple Sky Divine Thunder has flushed out countless Yin Beasts; if expected correctly, the current batch should be the last remaining Yin Beasts in this Secret Realm.’

Holding the Thunder Strike Sword, Ji Yuan looked at the dozen or so Tier Three Yin Beasts shivering in the corner, feeling somewhat sentimental.

Who would have thought, those once unstoppable Tier Three Yin Beasts, looking to bite anyone they saw.

Now reduced to strays, cowering in the corner, being beaten fiercely by me?

They don’t even dare to look up at me anymore.

On second thought, it seems obvious; from start to finish, with the roar of Purple Sky Divine Thunder, countless Yin Crystals have fallen to the ground.

Looking at the boxes of Yin Crystals in the Storage Bag, Ji Yuan felt increasingly satisfied.

With these, not to mention helping one Yin Ghost Banner to break through, even if it were ten Yin Ghost Banners... that might still not be enough, but three to five should be no problem.

’After finishing things here, I’ll return to Lindong City under a different identity and see if I can trade these Yin Crystals with the cultivators at the Soul Refining Hall for some Soul-Eroding Ghost Willow.’

It should be possible; they can cultivate the Soul-Eroding Ghost Willow themselves, but Yin Crystals are a rare commodity.

At most, I’ll just spend a bit more.

With this thought, Ji Yuan tossed out the Thunder Strike Sword in his hand.

A flash of sword light, and another Purple Sky Divine Thunder descended.

Amid rolling thunder, it was enough to make those Yin Beasts howl in agony, with a few severely injured early-Tier Three Yin Beasts directly dissipating into Yin energy, a Yin Crystal dropping down.

Ji Yuan dared not waste a single thing, with a gesture of his left hand, the Thousand Souls Banner flew out, with its black aura waving continuously in the sky above.

Countless Yin energy was completely absorbed by it.

Nourishing the Yin Souls inside, while also slowly raising its original rank.

Before long, after consecutively unleashing the two Purple Sky Divine Thunders contained within the Thunder Strike Sword, Ji Yuan finally thoroughly resolved this last group of Yin Beasts.

Ji Yuan used Yu Wu to retrieve these dozen Yin Crystals, contentedly placing them into the Storage Bag.

With this, the last Jade Box filled with Yin Crystals was closed.

Ji Yuan looked around, finally releasing his Divine Sense to thoroughly check this whole desert expanse; deeply afraid of waste, he dared not let a bit slip.

In case a Tier Two Yin Beast was missed, that would also be wasteful.
