Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 507: Chapter 240: Synthesis [Alchemy Room, Array Room, Talisman Room, Artifact Refining Room]

The synthesis of buildings first emerged alongside the [Artifact Refining Room], and Ji Yuan thought to grasp it in one go for an instant upgrade.

Unexpectedly, the panel indicated that the synthesis could only occur when [Artifact Refining Room], [Alchemy Room], [Talisman Room], and [Array Room] were of the same level.

Back then, Ji Yuan’s artifact refining skills were insufficient to support upgrading the [Artifact Refining Room] to Level 2, so he had no choice but to give up.

It wasn’t until later, in pursuit of upgrading the [Spiritual Energy Cannon] to secure a life-saving measure, that Ji Yuan painstakingly pushed his artifact refining skill to Tier Two.

With the [Spiritual Energy Cannon] upgraded to Level 2, it almost reached the attack power at the peak of the Golden Core.

Such a delightful event caused Ji Yuan to forget about upgrading the [Artifact Refining Room], let alone any thought of building synthesis.

Now that he remembered, it seemed like an opportunity.

To synthesize buildings, he needed to upgrade the [Artifact Refining Room] first. With this thought, Ji Yuan summoned the panel for a look.

[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×20, Green Nether Black Iron ×4 pieces, Earth Spirit Mica Stone ×2 pounds, successfully refine a Spirit Artifact (not yet achieved)]

Both Green Nether Black Iron and Earth Spirit Mica Stone are relatively common artifact refining materials. When he was in Lanshan City, even Ran Kui taught Ji Yuan how to extract Green Nether Black Iron from Green Nether Iron.

However, extracting it on his own now would be far too slow.

So Ji Yuan turned the ship around, heading straight for All Things Island.

These common Tier Two artifact refining materials are available for purchase in the Hundred Treasures Tower, though the cost in Spirit Stones might be a bit high.

But Spirit Stones are something Ji Yuan currently has in abundance.

A day later, having purchased enough materials from the Hundred Treasures Tower, Ji Yuan returned to Mist Island.

Sitting in his [Cave Mansion], he took out the materials for upgrading the [Artifact Refining Room] and placed them in front of him one by one.

Then, with a thought, he chose to upgrade.

Accompanied by the Spirit Stones and artifact refining materials in front of him turning into flying ash, Ji Yuan’s panel refreshed.

A stream of unfamiliar memory surged in his mind.

The method for refining ”Celestial Thunder Seed.”

This is one of the spirit effects of the Level 2 [Artifact Refining Room].

Once Ji Yuan finished processing it, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

The Celestial Thunder Seed is a good thing, with one seed being equivalent to a full-strength strike at the peak of Foundation Establishment, significantly more powerful than most of Ji Yuan’s current attack methods.

Now that he can refine them, when he encounters enemies in the future... starting with Celestial Thunder Seeds, dozens of them, who could withstand it?

Having used the Celestial Thunder Seed himself, Ji Yuan knows its power well.

The refining materials aren’t rare, but the refining method is a bit difficult... damn! As Ji Yuan carefully experienced it, he found that his current probability of successful refinement was virtually 0.

Refining a Celestial Thunder Seed, like refining a Water Bomb, is inherently artifact refining.

Ji Yuan’s current artifact refining skills are only capable of refining Tier Two Lower Grade Spiritual Artifacts at best, while refining a Celestial Thunder Seed requires at least the ability to refine Tier Two High Grade Spiritual Artifacts.

It’s not happening for now.

But knowing it is better than not knowing it, with time, when his artifact refining skills improve, he’ll naturally be able to refine Celestial Thunder Seeds.

After comforting himself, Ji Yuan looked again at the panel.

At this moment, the panel naturally displayed the spirit effects and upgrade conditions of the Level 3 [Artifact Refining Room].

[Artifact Refining Room: lv3 (Upgradeable)]

[Spirit Effect 1: +60% success rate for Magical Artifacts, +40% success rate for Spiritual Artifacts, +20% success rate for Magical Treasures, +5% success rate for Lifebound Magical Treasures.]

[Spirit Effect 2 (Purple Sky Divine Thunder): Obtain 1 Purple Sky Stone per month.]

[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×800; Star Meteor Iron ×2 pounds; Purple Sky Stone ×1 piece; successfully refine a Lifebound Magical Treasure. (not yet achieved)]

Ji Yuan glanced up and down, it was still a regular upgrade, nothing much to say.

Moreover, upgrading the [Artifact Refining Room] was not Ji Yuan’s main goal; his true aim was to attempt a building synthesis.

Combining these four buildings into one to see what new building would be born.

With this thought, sitting in the center of his [Cave Mansion], he looked around. The four buildings were indeed nearby, so he decided to give it a try first.

”Synthesize the Artifact Refining Room, Alchemy Room, Talisman Room, and Array Room.”

With the thought in Ji Yuan’s mind, he stared intently at the panel.

As expected, a line of text appeared on the panel.

[Do you want to synthesize the ”Alchemy Room”, ”Array Room”, ”Talisman Room”, and ”Artifact Refining Room”?]

”Yes.”

[Lv2: Alchemy Room, Array Room, Talisman Room, Artifact Refining Room.]

[Levels are equal, Pill Array Talisman synthesis, generating building—Celestial Craft Square.]

”Celestial Craft Square?”

Ji Yuan’s eyes lit up; just from the name, it sounded extraordinary.

The panel refreshed, and the original four building slots disappeared, replaced by one, and this [Celestial Craft Square] was already a Level 2 building upon its appearance.

The subsequent content, whether spirit effects or upgrade conditions, was considerably more than when it was a single building previously.

[Celestial Craft Square: lv2]

[Spirit Effect 1: +40% success rate for Tier One, +20% success rate for Tier Two, +5% success rate for Tier Three.]

[Spirit Effect 2: Automatically learn the crafting methods for ”Transformation Talisman,” ”Foundation Establishment Pill,” ”Celestial Thunder Seed,” and automatically acquire the ”Star Dust Illusionary Killing Array.”]

Simply looking at these Level 2 spirit effects, it essentially combines the previous four buildings into one.

Nothing special about it.

The remaining ”upgrade conditions” were the same, as it was already upgraded, Ji Yuan didn’t even bother to take a glance.

What truly attracted him was still this Level 3 [Celestial Craft Square].

Turning his gaze, he saw the following text:

[Celestial Craft Square: lv3 (Upgradeable)]

[Spirit Effect 1: +60% success rate for Tier One, +40% success rate for Tier Two, +20% success rate for Tier Three, +5% success rate for Tier Four.]
