Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 666: Chapter 291: Ji Yuan Battles the Golden Core!

Dark Venerable, seeing this, advanced instead of retreating, taking a step forward, and a dark spiritual wall appeared before him.

All the fireballs striking this spiritual wall turned into nothingness and dissipated, yet on the wall, fiery patterns appeared, ultimately converging in the center.

Absorb, counterattack.

The Ice and Fire Elder, seeing the truth, sneered, forming a seal with one hand while retreating a step, the entire Great Sun Dharmakaya advancing.

He passed through the Dharmakaya... and then the Great Sun smashed towards Dark Venerable opposite him.

In the distance, the Divine Eagle Master and Fire Python Zhenren instinctively stepped back upon witnessing this scene.

Fire Python Zhenren only retreated to the shore, knowing the move couldn’t harm him, so he stopped.

In the distance, Dark Venerable pointed with a finger, and a dark peach blossom bloomed before him, shattering along with the descending Great Sun Dharmakaya, both disappearing in an instant.

Fire Python Zhenren touched the little red snake on his shoulder and instinctively looked to his right-hand side.

There originally stood the Divine Eagle Master, but now... where is the Divine Eagle Master?!

Where the hell did he go?

Fire Python Zhenren quickly turned his head northward, finally spotting a black light at the distant horizon.

This guy... ran away?

Did he really run away?!

For a moment, Fire Python Zhenren could hardly believe it, but soon remembered the words of the Divine Eagle Master in the underground Demon Cave before.

He had said he would run, but I thought he was joking.

But now it seems... Fire Python Zhenren hesitated for less than a tenth of a breath, then immediately transformed into a red streak of light, escaping eastward.

”Demon Dao truly lives up to its name; sacrificing fellow cultivators to save oneself is indeed common.”

The Ice and Fire Elder laughed heartily upon seeing this.

He never expected those two, who seemed so aggressive before, would turn around and flee.

Dark Venerable’s forehead veins bulged, ”No matter, once I kill you, I’ll personally send them to meet you.”

”Let’s see who sends who.”

After the Ice and Fire Elder spoke, he suddenly rose tens of meters high, raising his right hand downwards while his left hand lifted upwards in a mystical gesture.

In no time at all.

Dark Venerable saw a lotus flower dozens of feet in diameter appear above and below him, the one above being fiery red and the one below icy blue.

”Ice Fire Lotus!”

”...”

”After covering dozens of miles underwater, heading south into the Medicine King Valley, no one should know by then.”

South of the Starfall River, Fire Python Zhenren quietly emerged from underwater.

Just as he got ashore, he discovered a man sitting on a boulder with his back to him.

The figure was tall, dressed in a snow-white robe billowing in the river breeze, surprisingly resembling an immortal.

”You are...”

Before Fire Python Zhenren could release his divine sense, he watched the boulder rotate, and the man who had his back turned now faced him directly.

”What? It’s you!”

Fire Python Zhenren looked at the person in front of him, instinctively stepping back half a step.

But then he thought about it, and calmed down.

Even if he was injured, he was a solid Core Formation Cultivator, while this Isle Master Wuyou?

Just a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

He should be the one panicking, not me!

”It’s me.”

Ji Yuan nodded, and a series of sword embryos flew out from his Dantian, ultimately hovering around him, each of different colors, ”When I saw you in the underground Demon Cave earlier, I secretly swore in my heart that you... must die by my hand.”

”Arrogant brat!”

Fire Python Zhenren descended, the little red snake on his shoulder suddenly revealed its true form.

In an instant, a giant fire python over ten meters long appeared on the banks of the Starfall River.

Ji Yuan glanced over, an early-Tier Three spirit beast, nothing more than my late-stage Tier Two Monday isn’t strong enough, he lightly patted the Spirit Beast Bag at his waist.

A frost serpent suddenly emerged from it, landing before Ji Yuan and transforming into a similarly sized large spirit beast.

”Frost Serpent...”

A hint of envy flashed in Fire Python Zhenren’s eyes, ”Heh, and what of a Frost Serpent?”

”You talk too much.”

Seeing everything was ready, Ji Yuan immediately acted, causing two Celestial Thunder Seeds hidden beneath Fire Python Zhenren to explode violently.

”Boom——”

”Boom——”

Two consecutive loud blasts sounded, and mist began to rise along the riverbank.

Array Formation——Star Spiral Cloud Barrier.

Array Formation——Star Dust Illusionary Killing Array!

Facing a Golden Core Cultivator for the first time in battle, Ji Yuan was on high alert.

Fire Python Zhenren managed to dodge using his escape light, but the fire python was hit directly by the two moves, its scales torn in many places, tongue flicking continuously.

Monday knew Ji Yuan’s style well.

Take the opportunity to strike when one’s down!

Thus it lunged fiercely, summoning ice spikes from above, seeming intent on skewering the fire python to death.

Unlike Tuesday’s steadiness, Monday was fearlessly reckless in battle, just as now, charging headlong despite the fire python being a tier higher.

It had a kill-or-be-killed stance.

But Ji Yuan was different; he never fought unprepared battles.

Just like now, with Fire Python Zhenren scared into high air by the two Celestial Thunder Seeds, becoming an easy target.

Ji Yuan pointed at Fire Python Zhenren in the sky, and the nine flying sword embryos hovering beside him successively slashed towards the sky.

One after another.

Finally, the nine sword embryos merged into a single giant Canglan Sword.

Nine Swords in Harmony.

One Sword... to Sever the Heavens!

The Canglan Sword descended from the heavens, but a giant net spread beneath Fire Python Zhenren’s feet. If he fled, the net would snare him with the Heavenly Net Magical Treasure.

Not fleeing meant facing the Severing Heaven Sword directly.

Fire Python Zhenren was, after all, a Golden Core Cultivator; seeing Ji Yuan dare to attack, he steadied himself, forming a seal with his right hand, sending a fiery red gleam from his Dantian into his hand, transforming into a scarlet whip.

Lifebound Magical Treasure——Crimson Wave Whip!
