Longevity through Upgrading Buildings Chapter 1181 - 412: Moment of Manifestation [Monthly Pass Requested]
Previously on Longevity through Upgrading Buildings...
As expected, Ji Yuan then explored a Concealing Array located about eighty miles north of Swallow Sea Island, underwater.
Inside the array were several auras, and with the Divine Sense of Ji Yuan, a mid-stage Nascent Soul, he easily broke through the array’s defenses.
"An old woman at the peak of Core Formation and three at the late-stage Core Formation... plus the two of them, even if they can’t kill the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, they can still protect themselves."
After Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense thoroughly investigated, he became even more intrigued.
"I didn’t expect that just coming to help Liu Yuan solve a problem, I could witness such a spectacle."
"The two peaks of Core Formation are already here, there’ll definitely be a fight soon."
Ji Yuan glanced around and then retreated from Swallow Sea Island, finding the best vantage point on a nearby island.
Sure enough, in less than half a stick of incense time, he saw the array in the northern sea area break open, and four Escape Lights flew out from within, straight towards the southern Swallow Sea Island.
Meanwhile, in Tunhai City, at the hall where the Core Formation Exchange Conference was held, the sound of Magical Combat suddenly erupted.
"Looks like negotiations have completely broken down."
Ji Yuan’s body flew upwards slightly, then his Divine Sense swept across, instantly covering the entire island.
With the array broken, An Yue and the Demon Slave jointly cast a technique.
A flower bud emerged around them, tightly wrapping them up; after the array restriction was forced open, several techniques hit near them but were all blocked by the flower.
But it only blasted their figures flying towards the north.
"Didn’t kill them at the first opportunity, then it’s no play."
Ji Yuan understood in his heart.
As expected, the figure of Sea-Swallowing Great Saint flew out of the hall, initially intending to kill An Yue and the Demon Slave again, but upon noticing the auras in the north, he forcibly stopped his figure.
Finally, the silver-haired elderly woman with a cane reached nearby, shielding An Yue and the Demon Slave behind her, as did the other three late-stage Core Formation men.
"I thought who it was, turns out to be you, old woman."
The Sea-Swallowing Great Saint apparently recognized the old woman, and seeing her, couldn’t help but mock:
"Why, not satisfied with your upcoming demise, you came to my Swallow Sea Island to seek death?"
"Fang Kuan, leave some room for maneuver, it’ll be better to meet in the future. You know the identity of the Young Master, why take things to such extremes?"
Granny Xuanling rasped.
"Extremes?"
Sea-Swallowing Great Saint sneered: "Anyone can say that, but you, old woman, have no right."
"You!"
Granny Xuanling seemed furious, but there was no way to refute, finally she could only say: "Just say, in the last battle that wiped out Bingtai Palace, were you involved?!"
"Yes, I broke the Sect Protection Array of Bingtai Palace, killed the most Female Cultivators inside, so what?"
The Sea-Swallowing Great Saint seemed to recall some unbearable experience, becoming increasingly angry, he said:
"A bunch of Dual Cultivation lewd sluts, should’ve been killed long ago!"
After that, he swept his gaze over An Yue and the Demon Slave, especially pausing significantly on the Demon Slave.
"I wondered who it was, and why I feel such familiarity at a glance, turns out you’re from Bingtai Palace, in that case, even more so should be killed!"
No sooner said than done, the Great Saint Sea-Swallowing didn’t give Granny Xuanling a chance to speak further and directly attacked.
He took out the previous Trident again and swept far away.
It immediately evoked monstrous waves above Swallow Sea Island.
Granny Xuanling sneered, she grasped her cane tightly and struck it heavily.
"Thump——"
A muffled sound rang out, followed by waves of earthy yellow spread out, suppressing the surging water in midair.
"Earth Cultivators confronting Water Cultivators, there is naturally a bit more suppression."
Far off, spectator Ji Yuan analyzed with interest.
At least in terms of cultivation technique, the old woman had the advantage.
But so far, both sides were still probing, neither the Great Saint took out his Ten Thousand Spirits Soul-Devouring Pot, nor did the old woman take out her Lifebound Magical Treasure.
So, in this brief engagement, Ji Yuan couldn’t determine who was stronger.
On the contrary, those remaining mid-stage Core Formation Cultivators were fighting to a stalemate.
Moreover, as soon as they engaged again, the commotion expanded considerably.
Resulting in the surrounding spectating Core Formation Cultivators all fled away with Escape Light.
A mid-stage Core Formation Cultivator in a grey robe even approached Ji Yuan, cupping his hands: "Friend, may I borrow a step to watch the excitement?"
It was Ji Yuan’s first time seeing such familiarity, even towards merely watching excitement someone needed to borrow a step.
"Alright."
The disguised old Ji Yuan shifted aside slightly, laughing aloud.
"Thank you."
The grey-robed man flashed over, naturally said: "I thought attending an exchange conference was good enough, didn’t expect such excitement to watch."
"But whether successful or not, the name of Sea-Swallowing Great Saint is doomed, back in his youth he worked as a procurer in brothels... Tsk, what an odd fate."
"That’s the point, so when the battle nears its end, we should also run quickly, lest suffer unexpected harm."
Ji Yuan cooperated saying.
"Who said otherwise... Hey, Granny Xuanling is still lacking, it was rumored back in the days people assumed she had already died, but this battle today is probably her last."
The grey-robed man apparently knew the old woman.
"Granny Xuanling?"
"Indeed, was once a Xuanqing Sect cultivator, later was expelled from the sect, became a Loose Cultivator."
