Longevity through Upgrading Buildings Chapter 719 - 309: Golden Core Body Cultivator!!!

Not only did Hua Yaoyue arrange for personnel to assist Ji Yuan on the Extreme Abyss Continent, but she also did so on the Desolate Ancient Continent.

Ji Yuan duly noted this information.

Concurrently, a perplexing detail surfaced in his mind.

To locate the Suspended Pot Wanderer Immortal on the Desolate Ancient Continent required prior registration, whereas visiting the Three Immortal Islands on the Extreme Abyss Continent did not. He pondered the implications of this discrepancy.

Prioritizing discretion, Ji Yuan voiced his inquiry.

"No need, he is already acquainted with you."

Hua Yaoyue provided a direct and unambiguous response.

"Acquainted with me?"

This answer only deepened Ji Yuan's curiosity.

"Indeed. Furthermore, it is advisable to refrain from seeking him out directly; frequent requests tend to diminish the value of favors."

"Understood, your disciple comprehends."

Ji Yuan inclined his head in agreement.

"That marks the conclusion of our discussion. All necessary information has been adequately conveyed."

Hua Yaoyue concluded her remarks and gracefully rose, stretching her limbs with a languid motion.

Ji Yuan quickly interjected, "This disciple intends to disembark near the Thunder Shock Marsh. I fear... I fear I shall be unable to accompany Master to South Sea City."

"Thunder Shock Marsh?"

Hua Yaoyue’s understanding dawned instantly. She surveyed Ji Yuan from head to toe.

"Precisely. Endeavor to strengthen your physique as soon as possible. Once your body achieves the strength commensurate with Core Formation, you will possess at least a reasonable capacity for self-protection within this Cangluo Continent. As for those Nascent Soul Cultivators, you need not concern yourself; their intervention is unlikely."

"Yes, Master."

Hearing Hua Yaoyue's assurance, Ji Yuan finally felt a measure of relief.

"Follow me."

Hua Yaoyue spoke and proceeded to exit, with Ji Yuan following her onto the deck. He then realized they were quite close to the Thunder Shock Marsh itself.

The sky was already noticeably obscured by dense, dark clouds.

The flying boat began to decelerate.

Ran Kui and the other two disciples also approached Hua Yaoyue with clear purpose.

"Your teacher has prepared these two items for you. Cherish them well."

Hua Yaoyue concluded her statement and, with a flick of her finger, released two points of Spiritual Light. These landed in the hands of Ji Yuan and Ran Kui, each coalescing into a Storage Bag.

"Your junior brother has pressing matters requiring his disembarkation here, thus he cannot accompany us to South Sea City."

"What? Junior Brother, you..."

Phoenix Peach abruptly turned her gaze towards Ji Yuan. Her eyes instantly welled up, and tears began to stream down her face.

Witnessing this display, Ji Yuan could not help but feel a pang of sadness. He stepped forward, "Let us have a hug, Senior Sister."

"Alright."

Phoenix Peach practically lunged into Ji Yuan's embrace.

After a prolonged moment, the two parted.

Ji Yuan then embraced Yun Qianzai as well.

"Senior Brother, take care. Strive to reach Core Formation swiftly, and then await my arrival to seek you out."

Ji Yuan's words carried genuine sincerity.

Foundation Establishment Cultivators typically enjoy a lifespan of 200 years, whereas those who achieve Core Formation can live for 600 years. Ji Yuan harbored the belief that even with modest talent, supported by the advancements from various constructions...

Within 600 years, reaching the Nascent Soul stage should be achievable, shouldn't it?

According to Hua Yaoyue's perspective, achieving Nascent Soul Cultivation grants the ability to traverse between continents. Ji Yuan then envisioned visiting the Desolate Ancient Continent.

Even if only to see Phoenix Peach and Yun Qianzai once more.

Furthermore, they were now affiliated with the Taiyi Immortal Sect as Lower Sect cultivators on the Desolate Ancient Continent, implying that unless they actively courted disaster, their safety should be relatively assured.

They would undoubtedly have opportunities to meet again!

"Very well, we shall all await your arrival and Senior Brother's."

Yun Qianzai finished speaking, then quickly turned away, unable to bear looking back.

Ji Yuan turned his attention to Ran Kui, offering a slight nod. "Senior Brother, as I mentioned previously, you are not alone on Cangluo Continent. Should you encounter any difficulties, leave a message for me at our designated location."

Ji Yuan had not only established communication points with Liu Yuan but had also done so with Ran Kui.

The chosen locations were situated in close proximity, allowing Ji Yuan to relay messages to both individuals from a single vantage point.

"Understood."

Observing Ran Kui's acknowledgment, Ji Yuan raised both hands, forming a clasping fist gesture towards his Master, Senior Brother, and Senior Sister.

He subconsciously opened his mouth to utter a few words of farewell, but as the words neared his lips... they seemed to recede, causing him to bow deeply instead.

Phoenix Peach moved to step forward and assist Ji Yuan.

However, Ji Yuan granted her no such opportunity.

Prolonged goodbyes only deepen sorrow when parting is inevitable.

Therefore, Ji Yuan leaped directly from the flying boat, like a streaking meteor, descending rapidly towards the world below.

The rushing wind seemed to carry away his lingering regret and sadness, erasing the traces from his eyes, leaving only the echo of Phoenix Peach's cry.

Ji Yuan offered no response, nor did he employ any special techniques.

He simply plunged from the heavens, diving deep into the embrace of the earth.

Emergence from the depths left Ji Yuan with a throbbing head; the flying boat had long since vanished.

No flying boat, no companions, no reunion.

Only the encroaching dusk, the descending sun, and a profound solitude blanketing the world.

The Thunder Shock Marsh remained to the south, the very direction the flying boat had charted its course. Driven by this convergence, Ji Yuan now began his solitary trek southward, his steps mirroring a pursuit of that distant vessel.

Two days elapsed.

Having regained his composure, Ji Yuan finally reached the eagerly anticipated Thunder Shock Marsh. Upon beholding the imposing Thunder Prison, he refrained from immediate entry. Instead, he extended his Divine Sense, meticulously surveying the environs.

The findings proved unexpected: a newly formed cave was discernible halfway up the nearest stone mountain.

Concealed within this very cave, a Demon Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage lay in wait, employing a minute array for concealment while stealthily observing Ji Yuan.

Judging by the available vantage point, it was clear this observer had been fixated on Ji Yuan for a considerable duration.
