Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 490: Chapter 234: [Spirit Vein: Level 3]; Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk_2

Moreover, the layer of Spirit Stones covering the ground isn’t just Low-grade Spirit Stones; there are also some Mid-grade Spirit Stones mixed in.

Additionally, Tu Yue placed here Jade Bottles for storing Ice Soul Cold Dew and Water Dew, Jade Boxes for Blood Essence, Heart’s Desire Wine, Unrivaled Wine produced by the [Wine Cellar]… all combined with these Spirit Stones scattered on the ground.

What kind of [Spirit Vein] is this? It’s clearly a treasure trove!

Perhaps Ji Yuan arrived at the perfect time. Just as he stood before this [Spirit Vein], he hadn’t been there long when he saw a new batch of Spirit Stones emerge from within the vein… today’s harvest.

Mid-grade Spirit Stones, plus 100 Low-grade Spirit Stones.

Ji Yuan then watched with wide eyes as a “Spirit Stone rain” fell from within the Spirit Vein!

Ji Yuan admitted that when he saw this scene, his eyes turned red.

His eyes were practically glowing!

He even let out a “howl,” lunging forward and diving into the [Spirit Vein].

Rolling around on the ground full of Spirit Stones.

Painful to the body?

No, this isn’t pain; this is the taste of Spirit Stones!

Full of joy, Ji Yuan rolled around on the Spirit Stones a few times, and after releasing the joy in his heart, he picked up a small bottle of Ice Soul Cold Dew beside him, which contained five drops in total.

He downed it all in one go and immediately activated his Cultivation Technique, beginning to absorb the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stones beneath him.

“Damn, this is what cultivation is all about!”

“What kind of hard days was I living before!”

While feeling emotional, Ji Yuan took out the liquor from the Storage Bag and had Tu Yue send it to the [Wine Cellar].

After cultivating like this for four or five days and digesting the five drops of Ice Soul Cold Dew, Ji Yuan emerged from the [Spirit Vein] satisfied.

Along the way, he collected the Spirit Stones and various treasures placed inside.

In addition to what Tu Yue had previously provided, Ji Yuan’s resources were now immeasurable.

If not for this outing, where Celestial Silkworm Zhenren was determined to give Ji Yuan his Storage Bag… given today’s bounty, Ji Yuan’s Storage Bag wouldn’t have held everything.

But it’s no problem now; even if this treasure doubled, it could all be stored!

After organizing everything, Ji Yuan wasn’t in a hurry to leave this [Spirit Vein].

One of his main purposes for returning this time was to upgrade the [Spirit Vein], for which he didn’t mind spending a fortune to acquire those 10 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk in Lanshan City.

At this thought, Ji Yuan called up the panel for a look.

[Spirit Vein: Level 3 (Upgradable)]

[Spirit Effect 1: Spiritual Qi concentration within a five-mile radius +200%.]

[Spirit Effect 2: Produces 100 Mid-grade Spirit Stones and 1,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones daily.]

[Spirit Effect 3: Produces 1 drop of “Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk” monthly.]

[Upgrade Conditions: 80 Upper-grade Spirit Stones, 1,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones, 10,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, 10 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk. (Achieved)]

The 80 Upper-grade Spirit Stones would have been a challenge, but Celestial Silkworm Zhenren didn’t flinch to give them to Ji Yuan.

With that, nothing’s difficult anymore.

Ji Yuan took the Spirit Stones from his Storage Bag and arranged them within the [Spirit Vein].

Lastly, he retrieved the 10 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk from a Jade Bottle.

It’s certainly not true to say he didn’t feel any pangs seeing these Spirit Stones.

Especially those Upper-grade Spirit Stones, which can be exchanged for 8,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones—plus the rest, just the Spirit Stones alone cost nearly 10,000 pieces, not to mention the 10 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk.

However, there’s no choice but to invest now for greater benefits in the future.

“Panel, upgrade… now!”

With a determined heart, resources worth over 10,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones turned to ash right before his eyes.

Physically turned to ashes.

He felt a pang in his heart.

But the ensuing changes were extremely apparent; initially, the Spiritual Qi within the [Spirit Vein] churned for an instant, and the newly released Spiritual Qi became noticeably denser.

If quantified, it doubled.

Then it was the Spirit Stones within the [Spirit Vein].

Mid-grade Spirit Stones and 1,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones erupted from within the cave walls, as if bamboo shoots breaking through the earth.

Ji Yuan turned to see that a drop of milky-white Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk had appeared in the center of the [Spirit Vein] out of thin air.

He casually summoned it to his hand, putting this 1 drop of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk into the Jade Bottle, with the remaining 3 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk he possessed.

Success!

[Spirit Vein] upgraded to Level 3, and Ji Yuan now looked at the effects of upgrading to a Level 4 Spirit Vein.

[Spirit Vein: Level 4 (Not upgradable)]

[Spirit Effect 1: Spiritual Qi concentration within a twenty-mile radius +500%.]

[Spirit Effect 2: Produces 1 Upper-grade Spirit Stone, 1,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones, and 10,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones daily.]

[Spirit Effect 3: Produces 1 drop of “Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk” annually.]

[Upgrade Conditions: 1 Top-grade Spirit Stone; 800 Upper-grade Spirit Stones; 10,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones; 100,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones; 5 drops of Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk; 100 drops of Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk. (Not achieved)]

Ji Yuan glanced at the panel, seeing the long string of “0”s.

Well, the last time he saw so many zeros was when… he instinctively furrowed his brow and shrank back.

Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk… it’s not that this Spirit Milk actually takes ten thousand years to produce, just like the Thousand-year-old Spirit Milk or the thousand-year herbs needed for making Foundation Establishment Pills.

It’s simply the immense Spiritual Qi contained within this Spirit Milk.

A single drop of Ten Thousand Years Spirit Milk is said to instantly replenish most of the Spiritual Qi for a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Not to mention a Golden Core Cultivator, one drop and… it would overflow.
