Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 620: Chapter 276: Star Absorption Technique?

Even someone with a Divine Soul as strong as his felt a sting.

After sitting for a long while, he finally found a line of text from the myriad memories.

“Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book”

This was the name of this cultivation technique.

Following this, Ji Yuan immersed himself, carefully sensing the marvels of this Nascent Soul Technique.

Even with the help of the Enlightenment Room, Ji Yuan spent several days comprehending it before he completely finished reading the “Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book.”

This was merely a preliminary reading, without detailed investigation, yet it already took so much time.

“It seems the Level 2 Enlightenment Room’s effect is not very good, only providing a mere 20% attribute boost, even a comprehension as strong as mine cannot keep up.”

“This is only a Nascent Soul Technique. In the future, if there are more profound celestial techniques and transformational divine powers, it looks like I’ll need to continue upgrading the Enlightenment Room. It’s a pity, though, as I don’t know where to find that Transparent Fruit tree.”

The thoughts flashed through Ji Yuan’s mind, and he understood the effects of the “Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book.”

He also understood why the old demon who crossed the sea could achieve Core Formation in a single thought.

This does not mean there are no conditions.

If there were no conditions, anyone who practiced this technique could achieve Core Formation with a single thought.

Then it wouldn’t be a Nascent Soul Technique, perhaps even techniques leading directly to the Mahayana stage wouldn’t have such formidable effects.

The true effect of the “Absorbing Spirit Book” is not advancement, but… recovery.

The old demon who crossed the sea could form a Golden Core in a single thought because his highest cultivation level was already Golden Core.

Thus, he could use the method of absorbing others’ Spiritual Qi to quickly elevate his own cultivation.

His highest cultivation seemed to be the Peak of Golden Core, so according to this technique, he could absorb the cultivation of individuals one level below himself to rapidly restore his cultivation back to the Peak of Golden Core.

This is the greatest spirit effect of this cultivation technique!

This is precisely why the old demon who crossed the sea only absorbed the Spiritual Qi of those ten Foundation Establishment Elders.

He spared the other thousands of Qi Cultivation disciples.

It’s not that old demon was kind-hearted, but rather they were useless to him.

Thus, the single “Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book” is not the strongest form.

To truly utilize the effects of this technique.

It must be complemented by other “Explosive Growth Techniques,” such as those that forcibly enhance one’s strength, but afterward, cause a decline in cultivation levels.

First, explode in growth, defeat the opponent, and then rely on this “Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book” to rapidly restore cultivation.

This is the true path.

Unfortunately, the “Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book” does not come with corresponding explosive growth techniques.

To find such techniques, one has to search for them personally.

Ji Yuan pondered; he actually has a similar technique, known as… Severing Divine Technique!

Sever the Divine Soul, preserve life.

After a slight decline in cultivation level, one can still rely on the “Absorbing Spirit Book” to quickly recover.

Even the lost Divine Soul can be nurtured back through the Meditation Room and “Nine Respite Soul-Quelling Sutra.”

With so many techniques overlapping, Ji Yuan was astonished to find.

He seemed to have no loss, but in critical moments, could preserve his life or even cause significant damage to his opponent.

As for other spirit effects.

This refers to the “Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book” itself carrying Transforming Yin Divine Water, once mastered, it can condense powerful Transforming Yin Divine Water in the Dantian.

Flowing water is shapeless, can attack or defend.

Moreover, once this Transforming Yin Divine Water makes contact with an opponent’s Magical Treasure, it adheres like clingy bone-dwelling fungus and swiftly corrodes it, making it extremely devious.

… Thus Ji Yuan really likes it.

Such sinister moves are indeed the favorites of our Demon Dao people, aren’t they?

Cultivate!

Cultivate!

How can one not cultivate such techniques that rapidly restore cultivation, as for the accompanying Transforming Yin Divine Water, that is just incidental.

However, entry is not easy.

According to this technique, to enter “Yin Transformation and Spirit Absorption Book,” one must first concoct a semi-finished “Transforming Yin Water,” allowing it to corrode ten same-tier cultivators, and it must be the bodies of cultivators with the same attributes… while gradually corroding them alive.

Once corroded, their Spiritual Qi can also be preserved.

Then slowly absorb the residual Spiritual Qi they leave behind, and after absorption, this technique is considered entered.

Then one can cultivate it in the usual manner of cultivating normal techniques.

’It’s still quite difficult… The only good thing is it does not require absorbing all at once and can gradually accumulate, we’ll see if it’s possible to find suitable enemies then.’

Taking this thought away, Ji Yuan put away the Nascent Soul Technique.

Now that he has collected one Nascent Soul Technique and ten Golden Core Techniques, how about upgrading the Scripture Pavilion?

Ji Yuan called out the panel for a look.

[Scripture Pavilion: Level 2 (Unable to Upgrade)]

[Upgrade Conditions: Nascent Soul Technique ×1; Golden Core Technique ×10; Foundation Establishment Technique ×50; Tier Three Demon Pill ×3; Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×1000. (Not Achieved)]

Damn, it’s Tier Three Demon Pill again.

Nowadays, it seems whenever upgrading any building, it always requires Tier Three Demon Pill.

Yet, with Ji Yuan’s current strength, he cannot personally slay the Tier Three Demon Beasts… and it’s hard to find so many Tier Three Demon Beasts at once.

Unless he travels to the Endless Sea to slay those Sea Beasts.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but open up the entire building menu, wanting to count how many Tier Three Demon Pills are needed for upgrading buildings now.

[Scripture Pavilion] requires 3 pills; [Beehive] requires 3 pills; [Spiritual Energy Cannon]… Damn, this stupid thing requires 1 Tier Four Demon Pill, why don’t you go and rob it!
