Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 501 - 238: Shang Court Cultivator... Ji Yuan!
"At this development speed, it will only take at most another half a year for the number of Spirit-Devouring Bees to reach 60,000, not far from the target of 80,000.
The main issue is that the cultivation of this Bee King must reach Tier Three... Upgrading the [Beehive] is too difficult."
"[Chaotic Burial Mound] is slightly better; once the war between the righteous and the demonic starts, the sale of Foundation Establishment cultivators’ corpses should become extremely frequent.
By then, even if you want to get 10 corpses of those at the Peak of Foundation Establishment, it shouldn’t be a problem. I just don’t know if Celestial Silkworm Zhenren’s half-corpse counts as a Golden Core stage corpse."
"Otherwise, when [Chaotic Burial Mound] reaches Level 3, and I cultivate this Yin Corpse Demon Fire... I might as well be able to cause chaos just like ’Qiu Qianhai’."
Ji Yuan sat on Mist Island, silently calculating the demonic methods he possessed.
Next, he has to continue opening new constructions.
Among the remaining constructions... Ji Yuan calculated carefully. Currently, the only ones he can seek opportunities to upgrade are the [Fish Pond] and the [Pigsty].
The main spirit effect of a Level 4 [Fish Pond] is "Serpent Transforms into Dragon," which is too difficult.
Even if a serpent really transforms into a dragon, Ji Yuan feels that with the resources he currently has, it would be tough to raise it.
A Level 4 Spirit Beast, once grown, can undoubtedly compare to a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Given this, only the [Pigsty] remains, and once the [Pigsty] is successfully upgraded, there’s a chance to comprehend the body cultivation technique "Nine Turns of Mysterious Yang." Becoming a body cultivation powerhouse emerging from a [Pigsty]... wouldn’t be too bad.
If the physical body can possess the strength of the Golden Core stage, just like during the previous Foundation Establishment, that would be great.
By then, when I seek resources of the Golden Core stage, I could be more confident.
Ji Yuan looked at the upgrade conditions for a Level 4 [Pigsty]. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
[Pigsty: lv4 (cannot be upgraded)]
[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stone ×600; Tier Three Water and Fire Attribute Demon Pill, one of each; Fire Vein Spirit Marrow ×5 pounds; Three-eyed Dark Beast spine ×3 pieces; Taiyi Qingguang Talisman ×1. (Not Achieved)]
The Spirit Stones are easy; just 600 pieces, which is merely the output of [Spirit Vein] for 6 days.
The Tier Three Demon Pills are expensive, but they can be bought, this is not a problem.
The rest can also be sought through connections, asking around everywhere.
Fortunately, this "Taiyi Qingguang Talisman" doesn’t require me to draw it, having one is sufficient.
If it required me to draw it, then it would be an indefinite task.
Just as Ji Yuan was preparing to first ask Li Changhe, a golden Communication Talisman in his Storage Bag slightly tremored.
Dong Qian has sent a message.
Immediately, several Communication Talismans started to tremble one after another, even if he hasn’t checked, Ji Yuan knows... something big has happened.
He scanned the vibrating Communication Talismans in the Storage Bag with his Divine Sense.
Dong Qian, Hua Yaoyue, Li Changhe, Liu Yuan, Yun Qianzai... even Hua Yaoyue has sent a message.
Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense swept over Hua Yaoyue’s Communication Talisman and his master’s voice echoed in his mind.
"The Demon Dao has made its move."
Indeed... has the war between the righteous and the demonic finally begun!
Ji Yuan took a deep breath, and then scanned Dong Qian’s Communication Talisman with his Divine Sense.
"Junior Brother, where are you, I heard the Demon Dao has started invading.
The Golden Bell of the Ancestral Hall was struck eight times, one more ring means a nine-strike, which represents a catastrophe for the sect. If you receive this message, come back quickly."
With the Golden Bell ringing eight times, the Foundation Establishment cultivators who received the news within the sect must head to Water Dragon Island.
Ji Yuan scanned Mist Island with Divine Sense, confirmed there were no issues, and summoned the Wind Willow Flying Boat to head north.
Even if something happens, the sect won’t rush at this moment; there will be time to return to Mist Island later.
On the way north, Ji Yuan took out each Communication Talisman and replied one by one.
Among them, he especially inquired about Hua Yaoyue.
"Master, will we Foundation Establishment cultivators be required to advance westward, to defend Shang Mountain?"
Ji Yuan discussed the defense of Shang Mountain with Li Changhe.
But even without discussion, he could have thought about it himself.
Shang Dong and Shangxi, with Shang Mountain being the only natural barrier, if it gets breached by the Demon Dao... Shang Dong would basically be open ground.
Wherever the demon cultivators pass, it would be like a locust plague.
Thus, on Shang Dong’s side, they must do everything possible to hold Shang Mountain. Even if they still fail to hold it in the end, they must destroy as much of the demon cultivators’ vital forces on Shang Mountain as possible.
Ji Yuan sent the message and didn’t wait long before a reply from Hua Yaoyue arrived.
"It definitely won’t be required at the start, and I estimate there will be many volunteers."
Having received this reply, Ji Yuan felt at ease, but it wasn’t long before Hua Yaoyue added, "Moreover, it’s not only Shang Mountain that needs defending; many places behind need guarding, you’ll know then."
Listening to this, it seemed that Hua Yaoyue intended to explain, but perhaps thinking it would be too troublesome, she simply didn’t bother to elaborate.
Ji Yuan could only respond with "Understood."
A few hours later, by the time Ji Yuan passed by Wuyou Island, Dong Qian had already set out.
Du Wanyi was still out on missions and hadn’t returned.
As for the other neighbors like Isle Master Youlan, they had already departed for Water Dragon Island.
Ji Yuan set off at full speed, but by the time he arrived near Water Dragon Island, he was still late, there were already plenty of Foundation Establishment cultivators standing on the square.
Master Xuan Shui was already speaking.
Arriving belatedly, Master Xuan Shui naturally noticed him, and they glanced at each other without saying a word.
Just by seeing him, Ji Yuan was reminded of Han Feiyu’s past communication, he said not to trust Master Xuan Shui completely... Ji Yuan speculated that Master Xuan Shui might be connected with Shang Court, but unfortunately, there was no evidence.
