Longevity through Upgrading Buildings Chapter 1259 - 429: The Spirit Platform Has Its Own Spirit [Requesting Monthly Pass]
Previously on Longevity through Upgrading Buildings...
Inside the , she was frantically fleeing, while the woman kept shouting.
"Where is this, where is this place?!"
"Boy, if you have the guts, come out. What’s the point of hiding!"
"..."
"Heh, I really want to see what kind of creature you are!"
Having regained control, Ji Yuan was no longer fearful.
As for the means of the Purple Gold Gourd, judging from when the woman threatened him earlier, she relied on the Soul-Devouring Burning Yuan Fire inside the Purple Gold Gourd.
Coincidentally, this thing was useless against Ji Yuan!
Thus, with a thought, the Partridge Armor appeared on Ji Yuan’s body surface. He vanished from inside the Brewing Peak and arrived at the Mountain of Mind and Heart.
If the Purple Gold Gourd had any other tricks, Ji Yuan could immediately retreat.
When Ji Yuan, clad in Partridge Armor, appeared out of thin air in front of the Purple Gold Gourd and almost grabbed it, it truly startled the woman.
She hurriedly urged the gourd to accelerate, escaping from Ji Yuan’s hand, then hovered away facing him.
Having experienced the speed of this object, Ji Yuan no longer pursued.
The Purple Gold Gourd knew Ji Yuan couldn’t catch it either, so it stopped running.
The two faced each other in mid-air.
"Well, can we sit down and have a proper talk now?"
Ji Yuan waved his hand, and similarly, a chair appeared beneath the Purple Gold Gourd.
Covered in black armor, Ji Yuan leaned back comfortably and sat down.
"Indeed, a Pseudo Spirit Root. To reach the Peak of Core Formation at this age and even condense a Purple Pill... it’s impossible without some fortune."
Seeing Ji Yuan reveal himself, the woman’s worries seemed to dissipate a lot.
She sat upon the chair but never actually revealed herself.
This further confirmed Ji Yuan’s thoughts.
Either she couldn’t come out or would be very fragile if she did, hence relying on the Purple Gold Gourd... a bully!
"So, it seems this Grotto Heaven Treasure is your fortune, isn’t it?"
The woman continued to speak.
"Saying I’m useless, quickly show your worth, or our deal may be off."
Ji Yuan spoke as he pointed forward, and six Canglan Swords flew out, hovering around the Purple Gold Gourd, poised to attack.
The woman then fell silent.
Not in Ji Yuan’s Dantian, plus Ji Yuan wasn’t afraid of her Soul-Devouring Burning Yuan Fire, she indeed had no means of threat left.
Without any threats, she lacked the strongest bargaining chip.
So after a brief silence, she finally spoke:
"Inside the Purple Gold Gourd is a treasure that can help you break through to the Divinity Transformation Stage. If you are willing to help me, I will give you this treasure."
After hearing this, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but laugh, "Fellow Daoist, do I, a small cultivator at the Core Formation Stage, look like someone in need of a Divinity Transformation treasure?"
"Wouldn’t you rather offer me something to assist in Nascent Soul Condensation, I might be more tempted."
"With your fortune and strength, do you plan to remain in the Nascent Soul Stage forever!"
The woman spoke with an exasperated tone.
"This is the Secret of Divinity Transformation, something that countless Nascent Soul Cultivators pursue until death, and it’s right in front of you. Can you just watch it disappear?"
After hearing this, Ji Yuan remained unmoved, simply shaking his head calmly.
"I only know that cultivation requires taking one step at a time. If I haven’t succeeded in Nascent Soul Formation yet, thinking about Divinity Transformation seems a bit high-minded."
"I know a great deal about the Human Realm; I can help you in many places when you travel there."
The woman continued.
"Which continent are you from?"
Ji Yuan immediately caught the key point in her words.
"Heh, if I say something like this, which other than the Central Continent?"
Ji Yuan thought to himself, "Indeed."
If true, then in some sense, her alliance is a significant gain.
But first, she must be trustworthy.
Currently, she doesn’t seem trustworthy at all.
Because Ji Yuan wouldn’t trust someone who, a moment ago, thought of destroying his Golden Core.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Revenge!"
The woman said without any hesitation.
"Revenge? Against whom, what cultivation level?"
Ji Yuan asked out of curiosity.
But considering it’s someone from the Central Continent, the opponent must have considerable cultivation.
"This... I don’t know."
Her voice sounded a bit awkward.
Ji Yuan: "???"
"I only remember being trapped inside the Purple Gold Gourd by someone, but because I was trapped, I managed to escape."
"Other than that, I can’t recall clearly." Before she finished, she quickly added, "The reason I can’t remember is not that I forgot, but because I just woke up, and I can remember more later."
After hearing this, Ji Yuan knew in this confrontation, the woman had thoroughly fallen to a disadvantage.
The reason is simple.
Because she truly lacked bargaining chips, while Ji Yuan, on the other hand, had plenty.
The ability to trap her also meant no better options for her.
If it were the Central Continent, that would be fine.
But in Jiyuan Continent, finding a cultivator with a brighter future is exceedingly difficult.
It’s precisely because she had no choices that her bargaining chips decreased.
"Fellow Daoist, do you think... this is suitable?"
Ji Yuan spread his hands, smiling as he asked.
