Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 655: Chapter 288: Mountain of Mind and Heart

[Mountain of Mind and Heart]

The Lifebound Magical Treasure had acquired its true name, and Ji Yuan immediately discovered a mysterious and profound connection between himself and the Lifebound Magical Treasure, which felt extremely intimate.

It was as if this Mountain of Mind and Heart was a part of his own body.

Ji Yuan slightly sensed it, and immediately became deeply aware of the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

”Rise!”

He joined the index and middle fingers of his left hand to form a sword gesture, pressed them against the joint of his right hand, and then thrust them forward. The Mountain of Mind and Heart spun and flew ahead, finally landing on the ground in front of Ji Yuan, transforming into a Divine Mountain as tall as his knee.

Ji Yuan felt it was still not enough, so with a thought, the Mountain of Mind and Heart grew several times larger until it was as tall as the house.

This caused the ground to be compressed by a few inches.

And this was without Ji Yuan channeling Spiritual Qi to activate the Mountain of Mind and Heart; if he truly infused it with Spiritual Qi, it could instantly transform into a heavy mountain descending directly into the earth.

As for now...

Ji Yuan took a step forward and gradually disappeared within the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

As the saying goes: Spirit Platform, Mountain of Mind and Heart, sizes as desired within the Ruyi Cave Heaven.

The Mountain of Mind and Heart, acting as Ji Yuan’s Grotto Heaven, holds inner space, and will accommodate numerous buildings in the future, so Ji Yuan could enter.

Along with his form disappearing within the Mountain of Mind and Heart, the Divine Mountain, originally as tall as the rooftop, quickly shrank.

In just a brief breath, the original small hill became no larger than an ant on the ground, and continued shrinking until it merged into the myriad dust particles on the ground, reaching its limit.

Ji Yuan now stood at the highest point of the Mountain of Mind and Heart, perceiving everything that happened.

”Thus, it seems that I have gained another means of concealment, and indeed it is a Grotto Heaven Magical Treasure. With this, I no longer need to carry any Cave Mansion when traveling, as the Mountain of Mind and Heart is my Cave Mansion.”

”I just don’t know what level of cultivator’s probe the Mountain of Mind and Heart can withstand.”

Ji Yuan sensed that the Mountain of Mind and Heart had shrunken to dust-sized now, acting as a Level 1 building, comparable to a Golden Core stage Magical Treasure, so it should evade detection by Golden Core stages, right?

As for Nascent Soul Cultivators, it may not be certain.

Ji Yuan planned to test it next time he returned, in front of Hua Yaoyue.

For now... Ji Yuan’s mind immersed within the internal of the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

The exterior of the Mountain of Mind and Heart resembled a Divine Mountain, but the interior was chaotic, yet this chaos was divided into two layers, naturally intended to facilitate Ji Yuan in placing buildings.

For example, his Cave Mansion was currently in that upper layer.

Ji Yuan naturally understood that he could wait for the Grotto Heaven to continue upgrading, to open more layers of the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

Currently, opening two layers or even twenty layers wouldn’t solve anything.

Because accommodating buildings requires Void Nether Stone, and Ji Yuan now didn’t have even a single pound of Void Nether Stone.

Having the Cave Mansion accommodated is already considered a benefit given by the Grotto Heaven.

However, Ji Yuan had some ideas about the layout of the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

Eventually, the Mountain of Mind and Heart would certainly be like a treasure tower, with the internal space divided into several layers, a world in itself.

The lowest layer, Ji Yuan naturally planned to use to place buildings like Chaotic Burial Mound and Beehive, and if possible, put the Pigsty and Chicken Cage, those farming industries, on the lowest level.

The second layer would be for placing the Celestial Craft Square for alchemy and artifact refining, since these require to draw on earth fire, being closer to the ground is somewhat convenient.

The third layer should be the middle one, where Ji Yuan planned to place the Cave Mansion and Fish Pond, like a living area. He didn’t want to make this place too stressful.

Further above, there would be the Enlightenment Room, Meditation Room, and Scripture Pavilion.

Things enhancing perception would be placed higher.

Ji Yuan thought more and felt increasingly joyous.

But upon reflection, it was actually as if ”writing thousands of words, yet without a single resolution in the chest.”

No matter how beautiful the ideas, buildings couldn’t currently be accommodated, so he could only look blankly.

Suddenly, a divine light flashed in Ji Yuan’s mind. He seemed to have thought of something, while inside the Cave Mansion within the Mountain of Mind and Heart, he once again introspected his Dantian.

Among them, nine Flying Sword sword embryos were still present, quietly hovering in his icy Spiritual Qi Dantian.

He then slightly exhaled.

The sword embryos were still there, Ji Yuan just worried that the emergence of the new Grotto Heaven building would take the place of his Lifebound Magical Treasure, causing the Flying Sword sword embryos to disappear.

Since this is not the case, how should these nine Flying Swords be dealt with?

They surely won’t be his Lifebound Magical Treasure; could they be crafted into Dantian later on?

While pondering this, the panel seemed to sense something, gently vibrating, and as a light flashed on the panel, a new building appeared.

[Sword Pavilion: Level 1 (Cannot be upgraded)]

[Spirit Effect: Can accommodate worldly sword artifacts, Sword Specialization +10%.]

[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×10,000 pieces; Sword-type Spiritual Artifact ×5; Sword-type Magical Artifact ×50. (Cannot be upgraded)]

This new building appears already!

Ji Yuan was just worried about how to deal with the nine Flying Swords, now the panel provided a solution.

[Sword Pavilion]

Thus, it seems that in the future, even if the nine Flying Swords are crafted, they can be accommodated within the Sword Pavilion building, and then the Sword Pavilion can be incorporated into the Mountain of Mind and Heart.
