Longevity through Upgrading Buildings Chapter 977 - 370: Martial God Tower—[Transcendent Martial God]!
Previously on Longevity through Upgrading Buildings...
With the Bronze Saber in hand, Ji Yuan’s killing sped up, like slicing through vegetables.
However, after he finished off these Bronze Armored Warriors, the Bronze Saber in his hand vanished.
He, as before, refined the blood energy above his head.
Afterwards, he waited quietly.
The initial Black Iron Armored Warriors at the early stage of skin refining, and then the Bronze Armored Warriors at the mid-stage, by common logic, now should be the Silver Armored Warriors at the late stage, right?
Sure enough.
After waiting for merely the time of a breath, several denser blood qi appeared out of thin air, transforming into Silver Armored Warriors around Ji Yuan.
But this time, the number was much fewer.
Ji Yuan glanced around, a total of twelve, all at the late stage of skin refining.
Nothing much to say, he continued seizing a blade to kill; to Ji Yuan with his strength in the Bone Forging Realm, slaughtering these skin-refining levels was like a Golden Core cultivator killing a Foundation Establishment one.
Without any difficulty.
After dealing with these Silver Armored Warriors, the blood qi above poured into his body, Ji Yuan finally felt a sense of fullness of blood energy.
Not only did it replenish his recent depletion, but it also brought him considerable gains.
Until now, he also understood the true use of this Martial God Tower, which is to engage in life-and-death battles against these warriors, thereby refining the blood energy within.
Every time a stage is passed, more blood qi is supplemented.
"In this light, it truly is a Holy Land for body cultivators, and the name Martial God Tower is quite fitting."
Thoughts flashed through Ji Yuan’s mind, and then he rose as blood energy gathered around him once more.
However, this time, there appeared three warriors in golden armor.
The aura on each one was at the peak of the skin refining stage.
This was certainly within Ji Yuan’s expectations; however, thinking of the next level... wouldn’t there also be three Golden Armored Warriors at the peak of the Muscle Forging Realm waiting for me?
At that time, even if I’m at the peak of the Bone Forging Realm myself, would I be able to defeat them?
Damn!
Ji Yuan said nothing and continued to kill relentlessly.
But just upon engaging, he felt that these three Golden Armored Warriors at the peak of skin refining were quite extraordinary.
Clearly, there’s still a large realm difference with Ji Yuan, yet they managed to exchange a few moves under his hands before being killed.
After he killed these three Golden Armored Warriors and refined the dense blood energy, a small teleportation array finally appeared in front of him, in the center of the Martial God Tower.
The previously tightly shut door also reopened.
"The door is for leaving this Martial God Tower, so this teleportation array must lead to the second level."
Deliberating on this, Ji Yuan stepped into the teleportation array, with no reaction.
...It seems I have to upgrade the Martial Arts Arena to level 2.
Having cleared the first level of the Martial God Tower in one try, Ji Yuan’s heart settled, ensuring there was nothing overlooked, he then left through the door.
Upon exiting, he found he hadn’t actually left the area, but arrived in front of the blank stone tablet on the right-hand side.
However... the blank stone tablet now bore words.
Ten blank spaces.
In the topmost blank space, words appeared.
[1. Ji Yuan: First Level]
Ji Yuan: "???"
No way, how do you know my name is Ji Yuan, and even write my full name here?
Ji Yuan raised his head again to look at the Martial God Tower and understood the function of this stone tablet.
This was clearly a ranking board that only shows the top ten ranks.
But currently, in the Martial God Tower, there was only Ji Yuan venturing through, so there was only his rank.
Afterwards, Ji Yuan tried to find a way to hide his name, but he couldn’t.
Helplessly, he prepared to leave the place.
As he retraced his steps toward the outside, just as he was about to leave, several old voices seemed to whisper by his ear.
"How can the Martial God Continent be without a Martial God Tower, you are simply absurd!"
"This is truly the Holy Land for body cultivators, we must preserve it..."
"..."
As Ji Yuan opened his eyes, he found himself back in the Cave Mansion on Great Dream Island.
Reacting, he immediately got up to sense the state of his body.
Mana was still intact, the Golden Core within the Dantian... now bearing many blood-colored patterns, faintly showing signs of transforming into a Blood Pill.
’Not in vain for eating so many Four-colored Spirit Eggs, if there was no effect, I’d suspect the Chicken Cage was selling fake goods.’
As long as the mana was still there, plus Ji Yuan could sense his blood energy indeed became fuller.
It wasn’t an illusion, indicating he had indeed entered the Martial God Tower.
Yet, was it soul travel or physical travel into there?
Ji Yuan intuitively felt it was physical travel.
But if truly physical travel, wouldn’t dying in the Martial God Tower mean real death?
Clutching this thought, Ji Yuan also released Monday.
Then he activated the Spirit Effect of the Martial Arts Arena again, entering the Martial God Tower.
After a brief stay inside, he came out.
The answer obtained from Monday was... no physical travel.
He was still sitting there, meaning his consciousness entered the Martial God Tower.
If that’s so, how did the blood energy feedback to the body?
"In this sense, this Martial God Tower is truly mystical."
"As for those last words I heard... are they real or not? If real, are they echoes left by history, or events happening in current reality? Is the Martial God Continent... seeking this Martial God Tower?"
Ji Yuan frowned in contemplation, finding these were issues he couldn’t resolve at present, also ones he couldn’t interfere with, thus had to let them be.
