Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1185: Chapter 413: Battle—Tier 4 Sea Beast! [Monthly Pass Request]_3

Ji Yuan turned his head to look at the six dim and dull Canglan Swords. It would be false to say that his heart didn’t ache.

Not only was the Purple Sky Divine Thunder within the Flying Swords completely exhausted, but the final explosion had also caused some damage... Hmm, once this battle is over, applying Jade Liquid Ointment will be necessary, the more the merrier.

Moreover, since these six Canglan Swords were damaged, he could only use the remaining... 75 Canglan Swords after this.

After all, with the Child and Mother Sword combined, there were 81 swords in total, surely enough for quite a while.

Thus, Ji Yuan merely glanced at them before putting away those six Canglan Swords.

Opposite him, the disheveled, blood streaming from seven orifices, pale-faced Sea-Swallowing Great Saint was staring at him intently, viciously saying, ”Today... you’re doomed to die!”

As he spoke, the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint extended his right hand, and the trident from before appeared in his hand again.

”Haha, is that so?!”

Ji Yuan was not fazed at all.

He merely raised his right hand silently, and the previously vanished Flying Swords... reappeared, six identical Flying Swords!

After all, Ji Yuan had used six Child Swords previously, and now, it was the same.

This action immediately halted the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, who had intended to leap forward. He looked at the six Flying Swords suspended behind Ji Yuan, his face became unbearably grim.

”How... how do you still have them!”

The Sea-Swallowing Great Saint roared in anger, unable to help himself from spitting out fresh blood.

He thought having destroyed his Lifebound Magical Treasure would surely cripple the opposing party’s Lifebound Magical Treasure, but now... there wasn’t even a hint of damage.

How could the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint accept this?

Already heavily injured, he couldn’t hold back from spitting out a mouthful of old blood.

Ji Yuan didn’t speak, his answer was only the Canglan Sword in his hand.

In the distance, none of the other Core Formation Cultivators dared to make a move, even the late-stage cultivators of Swallow Sea Island could only gather together, staying far away.

Partly due to the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint being unable to match the mid-stage Core Formation prowess before his eyes, but more due to Granny Xuanling at the peak of Core Formation temporarily freeing her hand.

If they couldn’t grasp the situation and continued engaging.

Granny Xuanling might not be able to defeat the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint at the peak of Core Formation, but she certainly had no problem dealing with these late-stage cultivators.

”Young Master, is this someone you found to help us?”

Granny Xuanling, having retreated to a spot, looked at An Yue beside her, couldn’t help but ask telepathically.

”Kind of, sort of.”

An Yue raised his head to look at Ji Yuan, who could still press down on the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, nodding with acknowledgment.

”This... where did you come to know such a figure, mid-stage Core Formation with such strength, even Xun Tianji might not have been this powerful back then.”

Granny Xuanling couldn’t help but sigh.

Indeed, she wasn’t exaggerating.

A mid-stage Core Formation suppressing a peak Core Formation, particularly one like the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint whose strength was inherently overwhelming, was indeed something Xun Tianji couldn’t have achieved back then.

”He probably has hidden his cultivation.”

The Demon Slave followed up with this statement.

”Indeed.”

Otherwise, An Yue couldn’t think of any other possibility.

”He’s still very strong though. Had I known the Young Master invited such a helper, I wouldn’t have needed to come.” Granny Xuanling said, her voice carrying a hint of melancholy.

An Yue watched her expression, unsure of what to say, he couldn’t very well say that he had invited the other party only after arriving at Swallow Sea Island, could he?

”However miss, since Hu Beizhi is helping us so diligently, he’s probably also eyeing our plan extensively.” The Demon Slave communicated telepathically.

An Yue ”hmm”ed and didn’t respond outwardly, lost in his thoughts.

In the sky.

Ji Yuan, overpowering the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint, was still waiting. He knew creatures like the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint must have numerous hidden cards, and if he rushed forward recklessly... should he fall for them and capsize the boat, it would be immensely troublesome.

Thus, the best tactic was to wait until he voluntarily revealed them.

If he has nothing to reveal all along, then it’s simple; death is his fate.

Seeing the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint’s defense break down again, the Blood Killing Flying Sword slipped through the gaps, and Ji Yuan’s heart thought urged the Purple Sky Divine Thunder to fall.

”Swift—”

Sea-Swallowing Great Saint hastily formed a hand seal, transforming himself into water splashes and vanished from the spot, reappearing tens of miles east.

...Good, finally starting to flee?

Ji Yuan watched the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint escape far without panicking, raising his hand to recall the Blood Killing Sword, the previously cascading Purple Sky Divine Thunder was infused into the Chasing Lightning Cloud.

”Chasing Lightning!”

Ji Yuan called lightly in his heart, transforming into a bolt of electricity and vanished, reappearing in front of the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint.

Upon seeing this, instinctively startled, he exclaimed.

”Scared—”

Having such strength at his age was one thing, but to have mastered such terrifying Escape Techniques, when did a figure like this emerge on the Jiyuan Continent?

The Sea-Swallowing Great Saint frantically recalled, trying to guess who this person was, since it was unimaginable for such a skilled Core Formation Cultivator to be nameless.

”Swift—”

The Sea-Swallowing Great Saint activated the Escape Technique a second time, appearing in the eastern direction dozens of miles away.

”Chasing Lightning!”

Ji Yuan naturally followed, considering the Sea-Swallowing Great Saint was using techniques, whereas he employed the Purple Sky Divine Thunder... Such an Escape Technique must be immensely consuming.

When the opponent can no longer endure, that would be the moment for a deadly strike!

Besides, distancing from Swallow Sea Island is beneficial; he can exert himself fully without fear of being targeted.
