Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 221: That's All There Is to It!


Ji Yuan took advantage of the situation and leapt backward several times, arriving at the edge of the array.

The Yin Ghost Banner he had previously stashed away was now planted in the ground once more, with the Yin Ghost Array spreading outward in all directions.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw Jiang Hong retrieving a Talisman Treasure from his Storage Bag.

It was no longer the blood-colored great saber.

This won't do, even though I also have talisman treasures, using them further would only deplete both sides… As this thought flashed through Ji Yuan's mind, he also pulled out a Talisman Treasure from his Storage Bag.

A Thousand Chain.

Whether to use it or not, the important thing is not to lose momentum first.

Along with Ji Yuan's second Talisman Treasure appearing, Jiang Hong hesitated somewhat.

If one person has a Talisman Treasure and the other doesn't, it's crushing.

But if both have them, it's as if neither does.

Just like a moment ago.

His movement paused briefly, and Ji Yuan seized the opportunity, throwing out a child with a flick of his right hand.

The Yin Tongzi, standing on a skull, suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Hong.

"Ah—"

Jiang Hong instantly reacted, thinking to retreat, when he heard the sound of a bell ringing.

"Ding ling ling—"

The Yin Tongzi shook the Seven Fiend Infant Cry Bell in his hand.

Thinking back to the time in Ghost Seeking Cave, even a Divine Soul as potent as Ji Yuan's was momentarily affected by the Infant Cry Bell.

Not to mention Jiang Hong, whose Divine Soul hadn't been strengthened.

So when he heard the bell, his body immediately froze.

A perfect opportunity!

Ji Yuan initially intended to throw a Celestial Thunder Seed, but it was too slow.

Three Canglan Sword Embryos emerged from his Dantian, reaching Jiang Hong in a blink.

"Shhh—"

Just awakened from the sharp pain in his Divine Soul, Jiang Hong saw the three Flying Swords already before him.

His eyes involuntarily widened, and then a faint noise echoed beside his ear.

"Crack—"

The Jade Pendant he wore on his chest shattered at just the right moment.

But it thankfully blocked the three Flying Swords in front of him.

Continue!

With a thought, Ji Yuan summoned two Yin Ghosts from the Yin Ghost Banner; they flew to Jiang Hong, wrapping around his arms on either side, seemingly trying to tear him in half.

In addition to the three sword embryos weaving back and forth.

In an instant, the evenly matched battle turned, and Jiang Hong was at a disadvantage.

Yet Ji Yuan didn't relax a bit; the tactics of a Nascent Soul's son could not be so limited!

Jiang Hong perceived everything around him, his expression turning extremely grim.

"Courting death!"

Jiang Hong gritted his teeth and spat out every word.

At the moment his voice fell, Ji Yuan saw the blood-red flames on Jiang Hong's body suddenly leap upward.

His whole being appeared to transform into a Fireball, scorching and roasting everything.

The two Yin Ghosts fiercely tugging at him were almost immediately dissolved into Yin Energy under the blood-red flames.

Realizing the situation was unfavorable, Ji Yuan hastily retracted the three sword embryos.

"Corpse Puppets, huh!"

"Are you the only one with Corpse Puppets?"

As Jiang Hong spoke, two blood streaks flew from his sleeves, landing on either side of the Yin Tongzi.

Two blood-clad female corpses, identical in appearance.

Twins!

Both at mid-stage Foundation Establishment.

"Run!"

As Ji Yuan's thought passed, Yin Tongzi hurriedly propelled the skull beneath his feet, flying off into the distance.

The two blood-clad female corpses, each wielding a Willow Leaf Flying Saber, followed closely.

"Again."

As Jiang Hong spoke, a fiery serpent slithered from his sleeve, initially as thin as a chopstick, but once it hit the ground, it transformed into a giant serpent as thick as a water barrel.

Observing its cultivation, Ji Yuan noted it was a late-stage Tier Two Demon Beast!

Jiang Hong leaped, landing steadily atop the fiery serpent's head, his figure burning with blood-red flames, his flowing sleeves showcasing the demeanor of a Demon Cultivator.

Yet just as he assumed he could fight two against one, he witnessed Qiu Qianhai on the opposite front, sneer derisively.

"Is that all?"

Upon saying this, Ji Yuan finally released the Frost Serpent.

Since it advanced to a Tier Two Demon Beast, this was its first confrontation released by Ji Yuan.

So as the Frost Serpent emerged, it raised its head and let out a series of roars.

Surrounding cold air surged, nearly freezing the array itself.

Leaving aside other factors, merely the momentum in its appearance, the dragon-like Frost Serpent firmly overshadowed the fiery serpent.

"Go."

Jiang Hong had already concluded that the opponent, Qiu Qianhai, must be a direct disciple of some Nascent Soul old thief, pampered to an extreme degree, or else he wouldn't possess so many tactics?!

As the fiery serpent slithered, the Frost Serpent pursued on its own.

Thus, corpse puppet faced corpse puppet, spirit beast faced spirit beast.

Jiang Hong remained reliant solely on himself to face Ji Yuan.

But just as he thought he might suppress Ji Yuan with the array.

He suddenly realized that an array was rapidly expanding.

His Blood Pattern Divine Fiend Array barely had a chance to react before being instantly enveloped by another array.

Was this another array of Qiu Qianhai?!

This dog... how can he be so proficient in arrays!

Upon perceiving this array, Jiang Hong knew he was likely to be defeated.

Defeated by an unknown minor character.

His eyes burnt with rage, yet he couldn't withstand the explosive bombardment of the multitude of Star Dust.

"Boom—"

"Boom—"

One explosion followed by another.

Already on the brink from being destroyed by a Talisman Treasure, the Blood Pattern Divine Fiend Array couldn't endure even an instant before being completely obliterated.

Next came Jiang Hong himself.

Ji Yuan, intending to crush him, summoned nearly all the Star Dust around him before detonating it.

Its power was unmatched by even one Celestial Thunder Seed!

Almost at the sound of the explosion, Ji Yuan had already retrieved the Yin Ghost Banner and left the site.

He didn't even glance back at the explosion, knowing that hesitating even a little might result in serious injuries!

While the fiery serpent and Frost Serpent nearby took the brunt of the blow.

Even though Ji Yuan had collected most of the Star Dust, the Frost Serpent was still left bleeding from its scales due to the blast.

Let alone the fiery serpent on the opposite side, which suffered significantly more from the explosion damage.

The remaining Yin Tongzi was somewhat better off, having fled far from the explosion center.

Ji Yuan propelled the Rift Void Flying Boat and swiftly reached the edge of the Ancient Battlefield.

Not until he arrived could he safely glance at the explosion.

The blood-red array was gone, leaving a massive crater in the ground amid the settling dust from the explosion.

Dead... most probably not dead!

A Nascent Soul's child isn't that easy to kill.

The explosion concluded, leaving only residual ripples on the battlefield.

Without hesitation, Ji Yuan gripped the Flowing Frost Sword with one hand, urging the Rift Void Flying Boat to storm back toward the center of the battlefield.

Strike while they're weak!

Today, Jiang Hong must be slain.

Yet before his flying boat could draw near, he saw Jiang Hong rise from the ruins, his clothes tattered, stained in blood, with a Heart-Protecting Mirror embedded at his chest.

His form was wrapped in a golden glow.

As Ji Yuan's Flying Sword approached, it was immediately deflected, unable to reach him.

"Qiu Qianhai, is it."

Bleeding from the seven orifices, Jiang Hong locked his gaze on Ji Yuan, his bloodshot eyes roaring:

"I, Jiang Hong, will definitely kill you!!!"

His roar resonated across the Ancient Battlefield.

Having tried numerous means, Ji Yuan found it impossible to touch this young master Jiang.

He knew that Jiang Hong was unlikely to be stopped today.

He was unsure what kind of technique this was...

Watching Jiang Hong's form ascend higher, Ji Yuan subtly raised his head, his face somewhat pale.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, his gown tattered, the edge fluttering in the battlefield's aftermath.

Though looking up at Jiang Hong, his gaze brimmed with disdain.

A sneer hung unabashedly at the corner of his lips.

"Heh heh, is this what they call a Nascent Soul's child?"

"To me, Qiu Qianhai, you're nothing but a motley crew!"
