Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 811 - 337: Mid-stage Muscle Forging Realm

”Miracle Treasure? So this kind of Magical Treasure is called a Miracle Treasure? Then wouldn’t my hiding Conical Hat also be called a Miracle Treasure.”

As Ji Yuan captured this information, other thoughts simultaneously emerged in his mind.

Yet, just as he was momentarily distracted, he realized that the streak of lightning in his hand ”crackled” and then instantly disappeared from his grasp.

”Offending Brother Ji and still want to run?!”

Ji Yuan instinctively reached out to grab again, but ended up clutching at air.

He looked up to see that the Miracle Treasure, Dashing Lightning, didn’t even dare to manifest its lightning form anymore, let alone transform into the shape of dark clouds, only daring to exist in the cave as a mere presence.

This was its highest means of concealment.

Ji Yuan could not perceive its traces with the naked eye, nor with his Divine Sense. Previously, it was only by its own revealing actions that he managed to find it.

So once it hid, Ji Yuan truly lost its track.

Ji Yuan pointed his sword finger and stored the two Celestial Poison Needles along with the Thousand Needle Basket into the Storage Bag.

Previously, he didn’t know the details of this Dashing Lightning, nor its attack power; now that he had experienced it, it was of no concern, as those items couldn’t capture it anyway.

Yet the Protective Spirit Light on his body and the Golden Light Mirror revolving around him remained uncollected by Ji Yuan.

Outdoors, it’s always best to keep things steady, especially in such an environment.

Take this Dashing Lightning, for example. Although with the previous power it couldn’t harm me, it’s not certain that it didn’t hold back and didn’t use its full force?

With Miracle Treasures, there are lots of uncertainties.

Ji Yuan commanded the Protective Spirit Light with his right sword finger, guarding himself, as he slowly walked within the cave, even deliberately stepping into the cave’s center several times, exposing his back.

Yet the Miracle Treasure, Dashing Lightning, refused to strike again.

Indeed, once bitten by a snake, it fears the rope for ten years.

Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense had already checked the cave inside and out dozens of times yet still couldn’t find the abnormal presence, so it could basically be determined that his Divine Sense couldn’t detect it.

”Then let’s try this again!”

With a flash of thought, Ji Yuan once again released the PWoang Divine Eyes he had retracted when entering the cave earlier.

As the purple vertical eye emerged from his brow, Ji Yuan’s vision changed once more.

At the moment his vision shifted, he swiftly noticed a wisp of smoke-like black aura floating not far ahead.

Its slow demeanor was like...provoking!

”Damn it!”

Though angry inside, Ji Yuan remained calm on the surface, as if he hadn’t seen the Dashing Lightning, continuing to wander aimlessly in the cave.

Seeing that Ji Yuan couldn’t discover it, the Dashing Lightning provocatively approached him.

Ji Yuan sensed the distance between them, and when it seemed suitable, he finally acted decisively, fiercely extending his right hand to grasp the aura again.

The moment he held the Dashing Lightning, Ji Yuan felt its struggle.

But in the next instant, the Dashing Lightning suddenly exploded with a powerful burst of lightning.

”Crack—”

A sound like divine thunder erupted in Ji Yuan’s hand, and amid the intense pain, he reflexively released his right hand, now bloodied and mangled.

The Dashing Lightning escaped once more.

Indeed, a cunning creature!

Ji Yuan cursed in his heart, looking at his right hand, flesh mangled and bone faintly visible beneath.

Painful, but compared to the pain of Body Refinement in Thunder Shock Marsh, this degree of pain was trivial.

The Spirit Devouring Armor also had a gap blasted open; he swallowed two Qi Blood Pills and took a large draught of the Spirit Liquid, gulping it down as if taking medicine.

Feeling the surging Blood Qi within, he shook his right hand.

The Spirit Devouring Armor rapidly spread again, soon enveloping his right hand once more.

Slightly raising his head, aided by the PWoang Divine Eyes, he quickly relocated the Dashing Lightning within the cave.

At the moment, it was nestled on the right stone wall; clearly, the previous explosion had taken quite a toll on it too.

Good.

As long as it consumes energy, it’s fine; just afraid it doesn’t consume at all!

Now, let’s see who can outlast the other; Ji Yuan sensed his continuously recovering right hand, feeling fortunate he was a Bone Forging Realm Body Cultivator.

Otherwise, given the speed and attack power of this Dashing Lightning, no Core Formation Cultivator entering would likely escape with their life.

Only those lofty Nascent Soul giants might use some Divine Power methods to restrain and trap the Dashing Lightning.

As he pondered, Ji Yuan took a step, his figure flickering twice in the air before rapidly reaching the Dashing Lightning, which naturally fled.

One pursues, one escapes.

After more than an hour, Ji Yuan was blasted twice again...he looked at the now exhausted aura in his hand and sneered, ”Run, why don’t you keep running?”

As if responding to him, the Miracle Treasure struggled a few times.

Sensing the feeble resistance in his hand, Ji Yuan finally relaxed completely, wasting no time as he sat down right there and began Refining.

Having finally subdued this thing, if you don’t seize the moment, and it escapes again, that would truly be a huge loss.

After some time.

Eyes closed in Refining, Ji Yuan suddenly opened them wide, when a weak voice echoed in the cave.

”Well, how many years has it been since I died? Ten years? Or ten thousand years?”

”Hehe, they say when a person dies, the lamp goes out; how long no longer matters.”
