Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1216: Chapter 420: The Powerful Purple Gold Gourd; Nightmare True Monarch’s Legacy [Requesting Monthly Pass]

Two Tier Four Serpents, plus a Tier Four Spirit-Devouring Bee King.

At this moment, none of the three great demons wasted a single word.

The moment Ji Yuan released the Mountain of Mind and Heart, they flew right into it together.

Soon after, the star-stepping wheel emitting white light formed beneath their feet.

Ever since the Dragon Girl returned, Ji Yuan had been releasing his divine sense, and at this moment he finally felt the intense pressure coming from the direct north.

The Black and White Dual Fiends... have indeed arrived!

Besides, Mei Manor, which was previously beaten into retreat, is now shamelessly following alongside the Black and White Dual Fiends, charging this way.

Even though they’re still a hundred miles away, Elder Bai’s voice has already reached here.

”Ji Xiaoyou, didn’t we agree on you becoming the Divine Son of our Black and White Divine Hall? How can you run away halfway?”

Ji Yuan took one last glance northwards.

Then he set his mind.

”Stepping Star, go!”

”Swish—”

At the moment of activating the star-stepping wheel, Ji Yuan truly felt what real... speed meant!

At the same time, he seemed to understand.

Why the star-stepping wheel is called the star-stepping wheel.

Because at the moment Ji Yuan pushed it to its limit, he truly felt as if the stars of the heavens were under his feet.

”This speed... it’s not much different from void traversal, is it?”

Ji Yuan watched the scenes around him, retreating past him like meteors, and couldn’t help but recall the feeling the first time he activated the Chasing Lightning Cloud.

Back then it was similar to now.

But looking at it now, the Chasing Lightning Cloud seems a bit inadequate.

”Maybe when I break through to late-stage Nascent Soul, or the Divinity Transformation Stage, the speed of this star-stepping wheel won’t be enough either.”

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

As for the direction of this journey...

With the Black and White Dual Fiends hunting him from the north, Ji Yuan naturally chose to flee south.

Moreover, he chose this direction with another intention — the Sea of Serenity is also in the southern part of this Land of the Sea Ruins.

If he can escape smoothly this time, maybe he could also visit the Sea of Serenity.

To see if the inheritance mentioned by Nightmare True Monarch truly exists.

”...”

”Can we catch up?”

In terms of speed, even the Black and White Dual Fiends cannot match Mei Manor.

But Mei Manor had just engaged in magical combat with the Dragon Girl, and previously exhausted himself breaking the array, so he’s currently injured, and his speed has slowed considerably.

Forced to be more or less on par with the Black and White Dual Fiends.

”Can’t catch up, that kid activated the star-stepping wheel.”

Mei Manor said with a nasty expression.

Forget about him being in an injured state now, he felt even if he weren’t injured, catching up to the star-stepping wheel was ultimately a hopeless endeavor.

Seeing Mei Manor say so.

The Black and White Dual Fiends wasted no more time.

Immediately, the three most powerful people on the Jiyuan Continent stopped over the Extreme Eastern Sea.

The Black and White Dual Fiends cast a glance at each other, then Elder Bai spoke first: ”From the information we currently have... the star-stepping wheel in the Rashamon Sea, the Secret of Divinity Transformation mentioned by Saint Master Mei, and even the Body Cultivation Technique that can manifest body cultivator visions. Not to mention the three Tier Four later-stage great demons among their entourage.”

Saying this, he shook his head first.

”It’s not that the Jiyuan Continent and the Cangluo Continent can’t cultivate such cultivators, but even the Desolate Ancient Continent... unless he’s truly a legitimate son of some Divinity Transformation Cultivator, they probably wouldn’t have this foundation.”

”Saint Master Mei, you managed to invite him here to the Land of the Sea Ruins, you must have known him already, right?”

Elder Hei added.

But when he spoke, he squinted at Mei Manor, and his words weren’t that friendly.

Know him?

More than just knowing him.

He even knows how terrifying his backing is.

Previously, he intended to plot against him quietly, but looking at it now, greed indeed blinded him.

”Yes, happened to meet once.”

Mei Manor didn’t deny this, but similarly didn’t tell the truth.

After this was said, the three present fell silent.

Unable to catch him, what else can they do?

Moreover, after this incident, the chances of the other party returning to the Jiyuan Continent are already very slim.

After a short silence, Elder Bai spoke again: ”In recent years, it truly feels like we’re experiencing a troubled autumn.”

”First, chaos erupted on the Cangluo Continent, then our two continents connected, and now the Desolate Ancient Continent and the Barbarian God Continent are clashing, trying to drag us into it. Not to mention we’ve now offended an unknown Divinity Transformation Cultivator.”

A sigh, further weighing on the minds of the three people.

Yet this is... the truth.

And an unsolvable truth.

”In the historical records of the Sea Ruins, there’s a saying.” Mei Manor suddenly spoke: ”It was said by a Master of the Sea Ruins, he mentioned that all the Mortal World cannot escape ’after peace comes chaos, and after chaos comes peace.’ It seems now is the time for chaos after peace.”

”Indeed, in a narrower sense, isn’t our Jiyuan Continent like this too?”

Elder Hei said with his hands behind his back.

Actually, one thing Mei Manor hadn’t revealed clearly was... in his early years traveling the Mortal World, he heard from an old cultivator a more truthful reason.

Which was that there were too many cultivators in the Mortal World, breeding heart demon’s aura, which silently influenced cultivators, gradually altering their nature unknowingly, leading to the current situation.

But there’s no need to say these words, saying them serves no purpose.

”How is the construction of the teleportation array on the Xinan Peninsula?”
