Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 727: Chapter 311: News of Du Wanyi Once More

”Junior Brother, quickly... run, this is a great demon, he kills indiscriminately, even sparing no one from the Demon Dao!”

Under the night sky, two flying boats shuttled through the dense forest, seemingly trying to shake off the shadow behind them.

But no matter how they ran, that shadow never abandoned them.

As if it was playing with them.

”Senior Sister, you go first, I’ll fight this demon!”

The young man made a hand gesture with one hand, and a short blade flew out from his sleeve, hovering beside him. The flying boat under his feet turned, heading straight for the shadow chasing them.

But just when he thought the demon would attack him, ready to fight for his life,

he found that the demon unexpectedly dodged past him and his senior sister, and soon a hoarse voice sounded in their minds.

”There is a Righteous Dao Market hidden in the mountain 200 miles west, you can go there for rest and healing.”

When they came to their senses, the figure of the demon was nowhere to be seen.

Finally, it was the woman who reacted first, and the two landed in the forest.

”Junior Brother, this... this is a senior from the Righteous Dao!” the female cultivator said joyfully.

The man in a water-blue robe shook his head, ”Senior Sister, don’t trust others easily, now in this world, there are few we can trust, especially someone like this old demon who kills both righteous and demons.”

”You’re right, Junior Brother.”

The female cultivator calmed down slightly and assessed the situation.

”And didn’t you hear just now, Senior Sister? When he killed those Demon Dao cultivators, he revealed his name.”

”Yes, he said his name was... Qiu Qianhai! Yes, Qiu Qianhai.”

”Exactly.”

The man nodded, ”Someone who dares to reveal their name can’t be simple, now only those mad demons dare to do that.”

The female cultivator found it increasingly reasonable, ”And listen to his surname, Qiu, it sounds like someone from the Demon Dao. Do you think we should go to the place Qiu Qianhai mentioned?”

The man was silent for a while.

Eventually, he said, ”Better not, I know the place where a Foundation Establishment uncle from our Water Dragon Sect resides, let’s go ask him if he knows of any markets nearby.”

”Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

”...”

”Including the Demon Dao cultivator I just killed, I’ve collected ten corpses of Foundation Establishment cultivators during this northward expedition, among them are two disciples from Medicine King Valley.”

”Though I didn’t expect Medicine King Valley to surrender to Shangxi.”

Ji Yuan scanned with his Divine Sense and found no one nearby, his figure fell from the sky, landing on the mountain top, then vanished with a hand gesture.

It’s been over a month since he left Thunder Shock Marsh.

During this month, though he was on the move, he had also investigated the situation on Cangluo Continent quite thoroughly.

Less than half a month after the Water Dragon Sect cultivators left, someone inside noticed something amiss.

Which is to be expected, with the Sect Leader and elders absent, other disciples would soon find something wrong, let alone some who already knew a little.

Once the news spread, the remaining disciples of Water Dragon Sect naturally dispersed.

When many left, surely the Demon Dao cultivators guarding outside would notice something amiss too.

Thus, the news spread, and the three Demon Dao sects attacked Water Dragon Sect.

It turned out that until they attacked, they found that Water Dragon Sect had secretly changed their Tier Four Arrays to Tier Three.

Easily breaking through.

Which meant, Shang Dong’s Six Immortal Sects perished another one.

Only Sword Ruins, Medicine King Valley, and Joy Palace remained.

Less than a month after Water Dragon Sect was breached, Medicine King Valley announced its entire sect’s merger into the strongest Blood Luo Mountain of the three Demon Dao sects.

There were even rumors that the Supreme Elder Medicine Master King of Medicine King Valley had already passed away.

But this news did not get a response from Medicine King Valley.

In short, after Medicine King Valley surrendered, Shang Dong’s Six Immortal Sects had only Sword Ruins and Joy Palace left.

”Sword Ruins cultivators are the most unyielding, surrendering... they definitely wouldn’t do that.”

Ji Yuan looked at the crushed Spirit Stone in his hand, sighing in his heart.

”As for the remaining Joy Palace... it’s unexpected they lasted so long.”

Ji Yuan originally thought the people of Joy Palace who excel in Dual Cultivation would be the first to yield.

But to his surprise, they held on until now.

Now four out of six Immortal Sects have fallen, with Sword Ruins far away on Shang Mountain, isolated and powerless.

Presumably, Joy Palace won’t hold out much longer.

Faced with just a few paths, either follow Medicine King Valley and Spirit Control Sect’s example and surrender,

or be annihilated,

or run away.

It’s uncertain what choice they will make.

Speaking of Water Dragon Sect, traveling full speed there from here shouldn’t take more than two days.

During this time, Ji Yuan kept wandering nearby, both gathering information and somewhat protecting the remaining sect members.

No matter what, he is now the sixth-generation Sect Leader of Water Dragon Sect.

Of course, occasionally he had to fight and kill a Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator or two.

Thus, it counted as removing harm for the people.

After absorbing more than a dozen Mid-grade Spirit Stones, the mana in his Dantian filled up again.

Ji Yuan swallowed three drops of Ice Soul Cold Dew in one gulp.

Once the Spiritual Qi dissolved, Ji Yuan felt a refreshing coolness throughout his body.

Indeed, an Ice Cultivator truly needs some ice attribute items.

After resting, he prepared to leave, but just as he released his Divine Sense to investigate his surroundings, he found out there were people being pursued to the south, and... it was someone familiar!
