Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 906 - 356:

In mid-air, Ji Yuan, with a calm expression, urged the ultimate fourth Canglan Sword - the Blood Killing Sword!Just like when Ling Jue Xiao made his move earlier, a streak of blood light sliced through the space.

But in the place where this blood light passed, there were also faint sparks of electric light flickering.

"Sss—"

Long Zhan Ye’s Divine Sense naturally sensed this extremely fast sword light.

One moment it was in mid-air, the next it appeared right before his eyes.

"Ah—"

Having just knocked away three Flying Swords, Long Zhan Ye could not avoid it and had to slightly lean back.

The blood light cut across his chest, leaving a wound about an inch deep, and finally split the golden armor he wore into two.

In his Heart Thought, Long Zhan Ye urged the Thick Earth Peak to protect his form, while hurriedly consuming several Healing Elixirs.

Ji Yuan didn’t pause for a moment, relentlessly pressing on, simultaneously activating the Purple Sky Divine Thunder contained within the four Canglan Swords!

Suddenly, an even more massive purple divine thunder descended upon the world.

Lightning locked the space, and dark clouds thickened.

It seemed as though the entire valley was facing an apocalyptic catastrophe.

As for Xing Shuang, she somehow found herself above the valley, standing on the edge of a cliff, avoiding the brunt.

She watched the scene before her, involuntarily swallowing.

’If I’m not mistaken, this must be the legendary Purple Sky Divine Thunder... swords refined with Purple Sky Stones, and still four of them, who on earth is this person?’

Because Ji Yuan hadn’t moved from his position, even now Xing Shuang hadn’t seen his appearance clearly.

As thoughts flashed through her mind, Xing Shuang transformed into an Escape Light and moved to the other side of the valley.

When she saw the person’s face, she was instantly stunned.

An image appeared in her mind, one that had once spread throughout Lindong City.

The silhouette on the portrait was exactly this man before her.

He had an extremely resounding name, one even many Core Formation Cultivators hadn’t achieved...

Ji—Old—Demon!

’But this man before me, so righteous, and possessing the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, which specifically destroys unorthodox methods, how could he possibly be Old Demon Ji?’

In the valley, streaks of Purple Sky Divine Thunder fell to the ground, and Long Zhan Ye relied on Thick Earth Peak to protect his form, yet was still struck until blood flowed from his seven orifices.

This encompassed both the injuries due to his earlier inadequate defenses and the injuries linked to the damage of his Lifebound Magical Treasure.

With both combined, he was already seriously injured.

If he previously had the opportunity to spar with those two Mid-stage Core Formation cultivators, then facing this Early-stage Core Formation Cultivator, there was no method to speak of.

There was only one way.

One strength suppresses ten skills!

One strength breaks all techniques!

No match in speed, no match in means, so what?

Everything has to wait until you break through my Purple Sky Divine Thunder!

On the ground, Long Zhan Ye held onto Thick Earth Peak tightly, gritting his teeth and saying:

"I want to see how much Thunder you have left!"

Having said that, he let out a muffled groan.

Blood seeped from his chest, upon closer inspection, it contained a Horse-cutting Saber!

"Hoo—"

Long Zhan Ye took a deep breath, pouring mana into it.

This Horse-cutting Saber absorbed both the mana and the power of blood, turning to normal size in just a blink.

"Ahhhh—"

Long Zhan Ye shouted aloud, suddenly expanding the Thick Earth Peak, granting him brief respite, as he grasped the blood-colored Horse-cutting Saber.

He also picked up the nearby Fang Tian Halberd.

The two merged into one.

He swung them with both hands, slashing out a large circle around himself.

Spiritual Light overflowed, and the four Canglan Swords were all knocked away.

Purple Sky Divine Thunder, broken!

Ji Yuan’s face turned slightly pale; he slapped his waist, and two drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk flew into his mouth, Spiritual Qi around him swirling as mana within his Dantian visibly recovered.

"Sorry, I still have plenty of Thunder!"

Ji Yuan muttered, flipping his right hand and forcefully pressing downward.

The four Canglan Swords, just knocked away, swept back from afar, hovering above Long Zhan Ye.

Each Canglan Sword can activate the Purple Sky Divine Thunder up to three times.

Now, it was the third time!

"Boom—"

Yet more divine thunder fell.

Without the protection of Thick Earth Peak and with golden armor shattered, Long Zhan Ye had no power to resist.

He could only resort to Techniques to forcibly endure this Purple Sky Divine Thunder from the four Canglan Swords.

Ji Yuan just watched him continuously form hand seals, starting with four shields, then twin turtle shells, and finally a set of bone armor.

But without exception, under this Purple Sky Divine Thunder, all were reduced to ashes.

"Ah!!!"

Thunder touched flesh, Long Zhan Ye had no power to resist.

Moreover, Magic Cultivators inherently had weaker bodies, whereas Body Cultivators like Ji Yuan could withstand such situations to some extent.

But Magic Cultivators like Long Zhan Ye had no such opportunity.

After his scream, within a breath, his entire body turned into a charred corpse under the Purple Sky Divine Thunder.

In mid-air, seeing him completely lifeless, Ji Yuan finally retrieved the Flying Sword.

Swaying slightly, he fell from the sky, landing back on the ground.

From afar, Xing Shuang hastened to transform into Escape Light, flying to Ji Yuan’s side, helping him up.

"Du...Dao Friend."

Xing Shuang didn’t know what to call him, even feeling that their relationship had become distant.

"I’m fine, just exhausted, I’ll be better after resting for a while."

Pale-faced Ji Yuan nonchalantly pushed Xing Shuang aside, allowing the Evergreen Sword to wander inside his body, spreading vitality, and his drained strength revived.

Though this battle seemed simple, Ji Yuan exerted all his mental energy.

After gaining the upper hand with one strike, he relentlessly pressed on.

He didn’t dare give Long Zhan Ye any chance to breathe, nor dare give him any chance to act.

Ji Yuan knew that once he seized the initiative.

He would surely fall into a bitter struggle.

Finding another similarly good opportunity would then be impossible.

Let alone whether Long Zhan Ye had other techniques, his speed alone made it difficult for Ji Yuan to find the chance to employ Purple Sky Divine Thunder.

So, winning this battle relied entirely on beating a drowning dog.

Moreover, Long Zhan Ye was caught off guard.

Not to mention he had been exhausted by Xing Shuang and Ling Jue Xiao for so long before.

Many factors contributed to the victory.

In short, Ji Yuan wouldn’t naively assume he truly possessed the power to rival Late-stage Core Formation.

If he became arrogant because of some achievements, the next to die might very well be him.

With the recovery of the Evergreen Sword, after a few breaths of respite, Ji Yuan was back to normal.

He took a few steps forward.

Just as Xing Shuang considered asking him, she saw Ji Yuan advance to retrieve Long Zhan Ye’s remains, as well as his Storage Bag and Lifebound Magical Treasure.

He also took out a black flag banner from his Storage Bag, summoning it with a hand wave, muttering incantations.

In just a breath’s time.

Dragon Zhan Ye’s Yin Soul appeared in the air.

Behind, Xing Shuang witnessing this scene murmured inwardly.

’Even possessing a Soul Banner, such a Demon Dao artifact... if it’s not Old Demon Ji, who could it possibly be?!’
