Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1151: Chapter 406: [Spirit Field: Level 5]; Double Nascent Soul (Monthly Pass Requested)_2

Thus, the Bone Nightmare Old Demon was seen off by the Heavenly Murder Old Demon, watching until he disappeared completely...

The Heavenly Murder Old Demon then turned around and chuckled softly, saying, ”Joyful Daoist, you’ve been waiting here for me for so long; I wonder what matter you wish to discuss?”

”...”

One month later.

Inside the Cave Mansion on the Mountain of Mind and Heart.

Ji Yuan, who had been in a deep sleep for a whole month, finally woke up.

Since arriving at this Extreme East Sea and settling on an island, Ji Yuan had left everything unchecked.

He directly sank underground, first entering the Stone Coffin, then inside the Mountain of Mind and Heart within the Stone Coffin.

Upon his arrival, he handed all the Storage Bags he had seized from the Rashamon Sea to Tu Yue and then dove into the Spirit Vein.

He fell into a coma-like sleep.

Only now did he awaken.

Even after waking, Ji Yuan lay on the soft chair, relaxing his mind, completely motionless.

Initially intending to explore the Rashamon Sea, he hadn’t expected so many events to transpire upon entry.

He had even interacted quite a bit with several Nascent Soul Monsters.

He repeatedly faced dangers but managed to escape each time, acquiring numerous Storage Bags, Demon Pills, and building upgrade materials.

The more critical acquisition was this artifact.

Ji Yuan waved his right hand lightly before him, and the Star-Stepping Wheel appeared in front of him.

Upon first obtaining this Secret Treasure, he had to focus on escaping, leaving him no time or energy to explore this Miracle Treasure properly.

Now, finally, he had the time.

Ji Yuan closed his eyes, sensing this pair of Star-Stepping Wheels.

The Chasing Lightning Cloud could transform into a wisp of breath attached to him undetected; as for the Star-Stepping Wheel... it could transform into runes hidden under his feet.

Once needed, it could be activated to manifest into its true form, the Star-Stepping Wheel.

By then, he would instantaneously escape... no, how can it always be about escaping? Clearly, it’s about pursuit.

As Ji Yuan pondered, a thought occurred to him, and the previously hovering Star-Stepping Wheel transformed into two streams of light, merging beneath his feet and vanishing.

At first, he felt as if there was something extra under his feet, slightly itchy.

But soon, this sensation disappeared, and everything returned to its previous undetectable state.

”Should I try to activate it?”

Ji Yuan, lying on the soft chair, furrowed his brows slightly.

The Chasing Lightning Cloud could be activated aside from Mana with the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, but the Star-Stepping Wheel couldn’t; it thrived on... Star Power.

What is Star Power?

Simply put, it’s the power of celestial stars; if absorbed, the Star-Stepping Wheel being on him could absorb it autonomously, albeit slowly, but effectively.

Ji Yuan thought to pour all the Mana in his Dantian into the Star-Stepping Wheel, intending to gauge how far he was from activating it fully.

Yet, upon doing so, he realized the Star-Stepping Wheel didn’t budge an inch.

Ji Yuan’s current Mana, comparable to Peak of Core Formation, vanished like a stone into the sea, left without a trace.

Ji Yuan sensed the situation... Though partially expected, it still somewhat surprised him when it finally occurred.

What does this indicate?

It indicates that fully utilizing the Star-Stepping Wheel lies in the distant future.

”However, for ordinary use, the Chasing Lightning Cloud suffices; when fully activated, it approaches the speed of Early-stage Nascent Soul.”

”In terms of speed, it’s strong enough to dominate during the Core Formation Stage.”

”As for progressing further, maybe after I achieve Nascent Soul Formation, I could activate the Star-Stepping Wheel.”

Unable to use it presently, Ji Yuan could only hope so.

Regarding how long it would take for the Star-Stepping Wheel to absorb enough Star Power for one use, he estimated at least a year, yet that sufficed.

If activated, the speed of the Star-Stepping Wheel would likely leave even Mid-stage Nascent Soul behind.

Beyond Nascent Soul... Ji Yuan recalled the scene when the Black and White Dual Fiends intervened, unsure of that.

”If that’s the case, I’ll just seclude myself for a year first.”

”It’s a good chance to elevate my cultivation to the Late-stage Core Formation; also, to upgrade the Spirit Field and Enlightenment Room... The Spirit Field involves Nascent Soul opportunities, it can’t be delayed anymore.”

”Ultimately, it hinges on cultivation; had I reached the Peak of Core Formation before entering the Rashamon Sea, who could have stopped me if I downed a Nine Nether Burning Life Brew? Not even the Black and White Dual Fiends might dare to oppose me.”

With these thoughts, Ji Yuan couldn’t suppress his eagerness.

After slightly restoring his Mana, Ji Yuan transformed into an Escape Light from the Cave Mansion on the third layer of the Mountain of Mind and Heart, heading to the fourth layer, the Spirit Field.

The Spirit Field was by far the largest structure Ji Yuan currently housed.

Upon arrival, extending his Divine Sense as best as he could, he still couldn’t probe the edges of the Spirit Field.

Everywhere his eyes could see and his Divine Sense could probe, there was cultivated Spirit Field; most were planted with Spirit Grain and Spirit Grain.

Yet, Tu Yue allocated a part of the Spirit Field as a ”Medicinal Garden,” planting various Spirit Flowers and Spirit Grass.

With the Spirit Field’s Spirit Effect that shortened growth time, they were nurtured to maturity.
