Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 579: Chapter 263: Reunion at Shang Court, Mei Manor’s Grand Undertaking

Blazing Sun Bones!

It must be this thing!

After slaughtering nearly fifty Spirit Pigs, I’ve finally managed to harvest a piece of Blazing Sun Bone!

Ji Yuan first used his Flying Sword to extract the Quenching Acupoint Pearl from the Spirit Pig’s heart, then sliced the Spirit Pig into halves with a single sword strike.

Right down the middle.

Soon, he discovered a golden bone shimmering in its left foreleg.

Like a bone made of gold, it suddenly appeared, growing right on the Spirit Pig’s leg bone, approximately the size of two fingers.

Ji Yuan reached out and plucked it off with his hand.

The Blazing Sun Bone felt slightly warm in his hand, extremely comfortable to hold.

Ji Yuan tested it with a little force; its texture was quite hard.

However, there was no Blood Qi in this Blazing Sun Bone, only Yang Qi.

Ji Yuan tried to absorb it… but it was useless.

He thought for a moment, stood up, and activated the “Nine Revolutions Profound Yang Skill,” beginning stance practice. He could clearly sense the strands of Yang Qi being absorbed into his body from the Blazing Sun Bone.

Then it was directed to his external body, beginning the process of—Skin Tempering!

Moreover, compared to the Profound Sun Blood Amber and Quenching Acupoint Pearl, the Skin Tempering effect of the Blazing Sun Bone was evidently superior.

Once clearly perceived, Ji Yuan was even more enthusiastic, continuing the task of slaughtering pigs and dissecting corpses.

But when he dissected the remaining fifty Spirit Pigs, he couldn’t find a second piece of Blazing Sun Bone.

From over a hundred Spirit Pigs, only one piece was obtained.

Clearly proving how rare this item truly is.

Ji Yuan shrugged helplessly and casually tossed a split pig heart in front of Gou Jiao for it to eat.

He just hoped it would strengthen the heart and raise its courage after eating.

As for the remaining Level 3 Spirit Pigs from the Pigsty, Ji Yuan no longer had any intention or plans to dissect them.

So he called Yin Tongzi over and handed the task of extracting the Quenching Acupoint Pearls to it.

And why not call Tu Yue?

It’s because the Spirit Pig contains Blood Qi and Yang Qi, which are both nemeses of Corpse Puppets.

While it might affect Yin Tongzi, it could truly harm Tu Yue, and Ji Yuan would feel a bit sorry about that.

After securing the Blazing Sun Bone, Ji Yuan headed straight for the mountaintop. Under the pine tree, he did nothing else but wholeheartedly focus on stance practice, slowly absorbing the Yang Qi from the Blazing Sun Bone.

Since a breakthrough in Mana was temporarily out of reach, he sought to see if his physique could be improved.

A small breakthrough in physique could grant him the power of a Peak Foundation Establishment.

Coupled with the Canglan Sword Array and various techniques… even facing a true Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivator, there might be a chance to fight.

As for the Fake Pill Cultivators, that’s still best avoided.

Last time facing the Wailing Wanderer, he personally experienced it.

Fake Pill or not, it’s still a Pill.

No match for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Afterward, Ji Yuan continued the stance practice on the mountaintop for five days.

After five days, the Blazing Sun Bone became significantly smaller.

“One piece of Blazing Sun Bone might be enough for me to absorb for a month. But just relying on this piece alone… a breakthrough in physique seems unlikely; I’ll still have to rely on the Profound Sun Blood Amber.”

Having absorbed the entire piece without a breakthrough, Ji Yuan didn’t feel rushed anymore.

He returned to the waterfall at the mountain’s base, where a Storage Bag lay at his feet; he picked it up casually.

Yin Tongzi had already completed the dissection of all Spirit Pigs and then returned to the Chaotic Burial Mound to heal.

The Spirit Pigs and Quenching Acupoint Pearls were all placed in this Storage Bag, which Ji Yuan picked up and inspected; finding no issues, he stored it away.

As for Gou Jiao… as soon as Ji Yuan left, it returned to its little nest to chop away.

Despite clearly having the power to be the Fish Pond’s ruler, it always hugged the stone wall when going home.

Ji Yuan had never seen anything so cautious.

Then Ji Yuan returned to his courtyard and went to the Celestial Craft Square, ready to begin Alchemy.

After harvesting so many Quenching Acupoint Pearls, he planned to refine them into Qi Blood Pills again.

After all, the Quenching Acupoint Pearl reinforced with Blood Essence greatly enhances the effects of blood and healing.

Next is the preparation of Foundation Establishment Pills.

This time, he obtained two thousand-year Illusion Spirit Grass and purchased thousand-year Green Fescue long ago during his travels across Shang Dong.

So there’s no shortage for making Foundation Establishment Pills.

Wuyou Island had already drawn the Earth Fire long ago, so for Tier Two pills, he didn’t need to specifically go to Four-Square Island.

Ji Yuan spent half a day nurturing the sense of Alchemy, finding the feel of it again, and started refining Qi Blood Pills.

…

Meanwhile.

High above the vast and boundless Shang Mountain, amidst the countless peaks is an unnamed mountain top, shrouded by ancient trees, where four people gather, either standing or sitting.

A graceful woman in a snow-white long dress, her face covered in a white veil.

If Ji Yuan were here, he would surely recognize her as none other than the Isle Master of Cloud Mist, with whom he had many entanglements.

Sitting beside her, often itching to lift her skirt, is Master Dan Yang, the Sect Leader of Medicine King Valley.

Of course, the others casually addressed him by his previous moniker.

Old Ximen Ghost.

Additionally, a white-robed man lies atop a handsome white wolf, hands behind his head, one leg crossed over the other, lazily dozing.

Another woman wearing a short skirt sits on the trunk of an ancient tree, her sun-kissed thighs swinging gently, exuding a sense of comfort.
