Longevity through Upgrading Buildings Chapter 1128 - 401: Ji Yuan Slays Nascent Soul! [Seeking Monthly Pass]
Previously on Longevity through Upgrading Buildings...
"Heh, since ancient times, a dog that bites doesn’t bark."
"If you really had that intention, old man, why would you say it out loud?"
"I think you should meet your end here today!"
Eagle Changkong roared angrily, and the Long River Falcon beneath him flapped its wings, instantly transforming into a stream of light and shooting out, while he himself remained where he was.
Seeing Master Qingcheng escape from another direction, he then charged forward with his spear.
With an additional Tier Four Early Stage Spirit Pet, it was equivalent to two Early-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators besieging Master Qingcheng alone.
How could he endure this?
Thus, even if he attempted to fight, Master Qingcheng had no choice but to flee in confusion.
Ji Yuan, seeing the situation, couldn’t help but release his Divine Sense, transmitting to Master Qingcheng:
"Senior, can you hold off Eagle Changkong?"
"Why? Do you have a plan?"
Master Qingcheng’s voice came immediately, and although he appeared to be in a dire predicament, his voice sounded somewhat calm and collected.
Apparently, this old man was hiding his strength!
No wonder he’s a Nascent Soul Stage Loose Cultivator; even now, he’s still concealing it.
’This old fox, even if I don’t intervene, he should be able to kill Eagle Changkong, but the cost might be significant.’
Thoughts flashed through Ji Yuan’s mind.
But since the old rogue Master Qingcheng wasn’t acting, Ji Yuan continued, "If you can find a way to hold him off for ten breaths, I have an eighty percent chance of killing him!"
Fully activating the third-level Meteor Cannon should take about eight breaths, but to be safe, Ji Yuan asked Master Qingcheng for ten breaths.
...An eighty percent chance to kill Eagle Changkong.
Truly, upon hearing Ji Yuan’s words, Master Qingcheng was very surprised.
If Ji Yuan were also an Early-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, he would think this was reasonable.
But Ji Yuan was a mid-stage Core Formation Cultivator, a vast difference from an Early-stage Nascent Soul.
Just as it would be for Master Qingcheng to kill a mid-stage Core Formation Cultivator; it would be no different than squashing an ant.
Yet now, such an ant was claiming it could kill him... how could he not be surprised?
But then, thinking of Ji Yuan’s identity, that he was recommended by Dragon Ba...
Perhaps he really had some hidden means to kill a Nascent Soul Cultivator?
"Are you serious?"
As Master Qingcheng dodged the Long River Falcon’s attack, he reconfirmed one last time.
"Absolutely, it’s a Supreme Treasure I obtained from an Ancient Cultivator’s Cave Mansion."
Ji Yuan knew quite well how shocking his words were, so he had to instill confidence in Master Qingcheng, or else he might not fully commit to holding off Eagle Changkong.
"...Alright!"
After a brief consideration, Master Qingcheng made his decision.
He would gamble on this!
Anyway, seeing Eagle Changkong like this, there was no chance of settling things peacefully today.
Even if Ji Yuan didn’t take action, he himself would likely have to reveal some hidden cards to teach the other what it truly means to respect the elderly.
But now, with Ji Yuan willing to step in, it was even better.
If they could indeed kill Eagle Changkong, it would be well worth the trip.
Not only would he gain all the possessions of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, but also eliminate a major threat.
It would indeed be a double blessing.
With this thought,
Master Qingcheng’s figure instantly split into two, scattering towards the east and west.
Eagle Changkong glanced, unable to discern which was real and which was fake.
But what did it matter?
He and his Spirit Pet could each target one.
He charged towards the eastern Master Qingcheng, while the Tier Four Long River Falcon targeted the western East City.
The four collided.
Streams of Spiritual Light burst forth.
Master Qingcheng quickly identified that the Qingcheng he had seized was indeed the original.
Because the opponent genuinely possessed Early-stage Nascent Soul strength.
But what he didn’t expect was the feedback from the Long River Falcon.
The Qingcheng it was fighting was also the original!
And he too had Early-stage Nascent Soul strength!
How was this possible?
Two of Master Qingcheng?
Even a clone technique couldn’t achieve this... Suddenly, Eagle Changkong realized something.
"Back then at Chenxin Lake, it was you! The mysterious cultivator who stole that door to the Ancient Secret Technique was you!"
"Hehe, weren’t you the one who said, ’In the world, treasures belong to those with virtue!’?"
Master Qingcheng mocked.
For a moment, Eagle Changkong’s expression became increasingly serious.
This old dog had truly survived because of his skills... But so what?
The Secret Technique would eventually run out.
Once it’s gone, it would be his demise!
With this thought, Eagle Changkong became even more ferocious in his assault, but before a breath could pass.
He suddenly felt a forceful presence descending from the sky.
This sensation meant he was being targeted!
Who else?!
He looked towards the source of the presence, and immediately saw a scene he would never forget.
There, atop the southern city wall of the giant city, stood the mid-stage Core Formation Cultivator beside a Spiritual Energy Cannon.
Meanwhile, four open Storage Bags were suspended around the Spiritual Energy Cannon.
Mid-grade Spirit Stones poured in as if they were free, merging into the center of the Spiritual Energy Cannon, ultimately transforming into pure energy locked by the Array on the cannon.
Ready to fire!
But the Spiritual Energy Cannon should only be able to kill Core Formation Stage cultivators, no?
When did this Spiritual Energy Cannon become capable of threatening Nascent Soul Cultivators?
Just as the thought crossed Eagle Changkong’s mind, he watched as the light flickered on the Spiritual Energy Cannon... it was as if the energy accumulated at the mouth of the cannon had reached a critical point.
Brightness erupted.
The sensation of being targeted intensified, and amidst it all, he felt a hint of threat.
...Oh no, this brat’s Spiritual Energy Cannon might really be able to threaten me!
