Longevity through Upgrading Buildings Chapter 797 - 332: Level 3 [Chaotic Burial Mound]

The contents of these two individuals’ Storage Bags... there aren’t many Magical Treasures, as both cultivators only possessed their personal Lifebound Magical Treasures. This situation is quite common for most Core Formation Cultivators. Primarily, Magical Treasures are scarce, and secondarily, their personal Mana reserves are limited. It's usually only upon reaching the mid-stage of Core Formation that one can effectively wield their Lifebound Magical Treasure.

However, numerous other items are present within these Storage Bags. Ji Yuan's primary interest lies in Immortal Materials.

The combined Storage Bags held 75 sets of Foundation Establishment Stage Immortal Materials, with 6 of these sets reaching the Peak of Foundation Establishment. Ji Yuan reflected on the arduous efforts he himself had undertaken to gather such a meager amount. To think, these two early-stage Core Formation Cultivators possessed so many... Damn Blood Luo Mountain, you will pay dearly for what you owe me!

Regarding the Magical Treasures, the Lifebound Magical Treasure belonging to the Venomous Flood Dragon Venerable is a treasure known as the "Miasma Dragon Gourd." Within its confines, it conceals potent venomous liquid and poisonous gases of extremely high efficacy. It is remarkably skilled at inflicting harm and sowing chaos. When utilized in conjunction with the venomous flood dragon's own abilities, its effects are amplified significantly. Unfortunately, the flood dragon itself is a material Ji Yuan requires for upgrading his [Fish Pond], thus it cannot be retained.

Granny Xuan Sha’s Lifebound Magical Treasure is a needlework basket named the "Thousand Needle Basket." In terms of its offensive capabilities, Ji Yuan has personally experienced its power. Initially, he assumed the Embroidery Needles were the primary component, but during the refining process, he discovered that the needlework basket is the true core. Furthermore, should the Embroidery Needles sustain damage, the needlework basket possesses the ability to aid in their restoration. It is indeed a rare and valuable Magical Treasure. Ji Yuan intends to keep it, believing it might prove useful in critical moments, allowing for a surprise attack and catching adversaries off guard.

With this acquisition, he now possesses six Magical Treasures in total, adding to his own Lifebound Magical Treasure, making it seven. Yet, I am supposedly just a cultivator at the Fake Pill Realm! Still, it's acceptable. Cultivation and Magical Combat are entirely reliant on [Spirit Vein] for support. Pondering this, Ji Yuan retrieved a jade-green glazed bottle with twin ears from the Storage Bag.

Inside, it contained exclusively Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk. His [Spirit Vein] generates a single drop each month. Currently, Ji Yuan’s Storage Bag holds 33 drops, sufficient for prolonged use. Moreover, he is scheduled for three years of secluded training within the Merfolk Race. Following these three years, an additional 36 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk will be accumulated. Combined, this will total nearly 70 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk, eliminating any concerns about its consumption during Magical Combat.

As for the remaining Cultivation Techniques, Elixirs, Immortal Talents, and other items, Ji Yuan did not immediately inventory them. This is because a more pressing matter currently demands his attention: upgrading [Chaotic Burial Mound]. The reason Ji Yuan opted to remain on Cangluo Continent for an additional year, rather than accompanying Du Wanyi to the Extreme Abyss Continent, was largely to gather these Foundation Establishment Stage Immortal Materials for the structure's upgrade.

After expending so much effort, even confronting a Nascent Soul Monster's interception for these materials, enduring a narrow escape, and subsequently falling into this Fallen Immortal Gully, he now finally possessed the necessary components for the upgrade. How could he possibly refrain from proceeding? Ji Yuan turned his gaze and surveyed his surroundings.

This expansive Cave Mansion featured only a thin layer of sand and soil in the northwest corner, with the remainder consisting of stone. However, this was sufficient. Ji Yuan approached, glancing around, then flipped his right hand, producing a Talisman from the Storage Bag. It was an ordinary Tier Two Earth Technique Talisman, known as the "Trample Earth Talisman." Ji Yuan had forgotten its origin, likely a gift from a cultivator he had vanquished. But that detail held little significance.

Ji Yuan channeled a strand of Spiritual Qi into the Talisman, activated it, and cast it onto the ground. The earth convulsed as if an Earth Dragon were flipping over. He then swept his right hand forward, releasing hundreds of streams of light that descended precisely into the depression created in the ground. They were laid out side by side. Following this, he used spells to pile the sand and soil back, and as he did, a line of text, visible only to him, materialized above the raised earthen mound.

[Chaotic Burial Mound: lv2]

Ji Yuan summoned his status panel once more and observed the line of anticipated text appended to the preceding entry.

[Chaotic Burial Mound: lv3 (Upgradeable)]

Given this development, there was no reason for hesitation. For prudence's sake, Ji Yuan resolved to depart the Cave Mansion first to locate the Merfolk Race's chief, Yu Yuan. "I wonder what you might require, friend?"

A visitor from the Human Race has graced our presence, esteemed and, at this moment, the entirety of the Merfolk Race is abuzz with this news. Yu Yuan, too, wears a pleased expression.

"Ah, yes. Friend, our clan is preparing a banquet to welcome you. Do you have the time for such an occasion?"

Ji Yuan offered a humble smile. "I was just on my way to discuss this with the Elder. I've had a breakthrough in my cultivation and fortunately discovered your Tribe's sacred land. My intention is to enter secluded cultivation for a period. Until I emerge, I would greatly appreciate it if the Elder could instruct the clan members not to disturb my practice."

"This..."

Before Yu Yuan could respond, Ji Yuan smiled and gestured forward. Several items promptly appeared on the table separating them.

There were approximately ten bottles of Tier One Elixirs, primarily Hundred Herbs Pills for recuperation, which Ji Yuan had previously acquired from an unknown source.

Accompanying these were dozens of Magical Artifacts, imperfectly refined by Ji Yuan himself.

Though their edges appeared keen, they could not withstand the infusion of Spiritual Qi. They might be of little use to cultivators but would serve the Merfolk exceptionally well.

At the very least, they were a significant upgrade from their crudely fashioned stone spears.

Particularly after Ji Yuan showcased the Magical Artifacts' sharpness and let Yu Yuan sample the Elixir's efficacy.

The chieftain of this Merfolk Race was deeply moved, tears welling up.

Naturally, Ji Yuan had no time to linger and watch the chieftain's emotional display. With the Merfolk matters settled, he swiftly returned to his own [Cave Mansion], arriving before the [Chaotic Burial Mound].
