Longevity through Upgrading Buildings Chapter 978 - 370: Martial God Tower—[Transcendent Martial God]!
Previously on Longevity through Upgrading Buildings...
He sat cross-legged on the ground, glancing at the panel.
No need to say more, have the Foundation Establishment Steward of Fumeng Ruins send over the Black Flint Stone with the Mo Gold Mother Core to continue upgrading the [Martial Arts Arena].
Once it reaches Level 2, I’ll head to the second floor of the Martial God Tower.
Continue refining the body, aiming for a breakthrough to the Late-stage Muscle Forging Realm.
With the Rashamon Sea looming, quickly improving cultivation strength is the way to go.
Thinking of this, Ji Yuan took out the Communication Talisman of the Foundation Establishment Steward, asking if the Black Flint Stone had arrived and to send it over as soon as it did.
As it turns out, not asking was better; upon inquiry, he learned that only a day had passed since he entered the Martial God Tower.
With no materials yet, Ji Yuan had no choice but to go to the nearby [Meditation Room] and continue meditating to enhance his Divine Sense.
More than half a month later, the Foundation Establishment Steward finally collected the Black Flint Stone and personally delivered it.
Getting the materials, Ji Yuan went straight to the [Martial Arts Arena] to continue upgrading.
With the disappearance of 10,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones, 10 pounds of Mo Gold Mother, plus 3 pieces of Black Flint Stone, and 3 Tier Three Demon Pills.
The [Martial Arts Arena] in front of Ji Yuan finally showed some change in appearance.
The previously ordinary high platform gradually acquired some dark lines. Additionally, the core area of this arena turned pure black.
As if stained by the recent Black Flint Stone.
Although sitting cross-legged within, Ji Yuan did not feel any critical hit from the upgrade.
"Ah, I thought the upgrade would allow me to leap directly into the Late-stage Muscle Forging Realm."
Feeling a bit disappointed, Ji Yuan rose and looked at the panel again.
[Martial Arts Arena: Level 3 (Non-upgradable)]
[Spirit Effect 1: +60% Body Refining efficiency within the arena.]
[Spirit Effect 2 (Martial God Connecting Heaven): Access the third floor of the Martial God Tower.]
[Upgrade Conditions: Clear the second floor of the Martial God Tower; reach Golden Body Profound Bone Realm as a Body Cultivator; 80,000 mid-grade Spirit Stones; 1 pound of Geng Metal Iron Mother; 2 pieces of Tian Yuan Spirit Marrow Stone; 2 Tier Four Demon Pills. (Not Achieved)]
A 60% boost, plus access to the third floor of the Martial God Tower... But this makes the upgrade conditions even harder.
Not to mention that a Body Cultivator in the Golden Body Profound Bone Realm is equivalent to a Nascent Soul Monster, and the remaining Geng Metal Iron Mother and such materials are things only Nascent Soul Cultivators can procure.
And those two Tier Four Demon Pills—no need to even mention.
Ji Yuan estimated that in order to upgrade all these constructions, he would probably need to slay all the Tier Four Demon Beasts across the Jiyuan Continent to have enough.
Hmm... when I’m strong enough, the first to go is Mei Manor.
That son of a bitch!
Ji Yuan silently noted this grudge, then with a thought, activated the building effect and appeared in front of the Martial God Tower.
Haven’t seen it in over twenty days; quite nostalgic.
No difference from before Ji Yuan left, the vast Martial God Tower was only accessible to him.
His name stood alone on the leaderboard, and when he looked up, he could finally see the third floor clearly.
...Looks like it has to be conquered floor by floor.
Ji Yuan was mentally prepared; he opened the large door and entered the first floor of the Martial God Tower.
Upon entering, a message appeared in his mind.
He could choose to go directly to the second floor or continue clearing the first floor before moving on.
For such a question, Ji Yuan naturally chose to clear it again.
It wouldn’t take too much time anyway.
But after he cleared the first round of Black Iron Armored Warriors, he regretted it a bit.
Because this time there was no Blood Qi reward after the kill.
"Seems like only the first-time clearance comes with a big bonus, but never mind, just a warm-up."
A day later, watching the Teleportation Array reappear in the center of the hall, Ji Yuan showed no hesitation and stepped into it.
Accompanied by a flash of light, his figure instantly disappeared from the original place.
When he came back to his senses, he realized... he hadn’t moved.
Because the second floor of the Martial God Tower was no different from the first floor.
An identically structured hall.
Except the Teleportation Array beneath his feet had vanished, and in a split second of confusion, Ji Yuan noticed Blood Qi surging all around, familiar Black Iron Armored Warriors reappearing.
Still dense, countless like a swarm.
But this time, each Black Iron Armored Warrior was at the Early-stage Muscle Forging Realm!
Just a small realm below Ji Yuan’s Mid-stage Muscle Forging Realm.
But the sheer number filled the gap in realm differences!
Not daring to delay, Ji Yuan seized the moment when the Black Iron Armored Warrior in front hadn’t reacted, and tried to snatch the blade with bare hands once again.
However, just as he extended his right hand.
The two Black Iron Armored Warriors beside him reacted first, simultaneously raising their Black Sabers, slashing towards Ji Yuan’s extending right hand with boundless Blood Qi.
"You sons of bitches!"
Seeing the speed and ferocity of the Black Iron Armored Warriors, Ji Yuan had to quickly retract his hand, then leapt, kicking ferociously with both feet.
The moment he kicked away the two warriors in front of him, he borrowed the force to leap sideways, snatching the Black Saber from the Black Iron Armored Warrior next to him.
Once again he stood with saber in hand, fighting alone against countless warriors!
