Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 454 - 222: Ji Yuan Slays a Golden Core!
Descending from the top of these stairs, they arrived at a long corridor.
Dong Qian ceased speaking, and Ji Yuan summoned the panel.
He remembered that the upgrade conditions for Level 2 [Meditation Room] required killing a Golden Core cultivator during the Foundation Establishment stage.
Previously, he thought it was something he couldn’t possibly accomplish. Who would have thought he could get something as good as the [Spiritual Energy Cannon], with Dong Qian assisting him?
It seemed like a stroke of luck.
[Meditation Room: Level 2 (Upgradeable)]
[Spirit Effect: Meditate to refine the Divine Soul and increase current realm’s Divine Sense by 200%.]
[Upgrade Conditions: Kill a Golden Core cultivator during the Foundation Establishment stage. (Achieved)]
Success!
It turned out to be useful indeed!
Killing a Golden Core cultivator using the [Spiritual Energy Cannon], how could that not count as him killing it?
The previous Level 1 [Meditation Room] could only enhance Divine Sense by 80%, and even that was a significant help to Ji Yuan. Now, it could enhance by 200%.
’When I reach the late-stage Foundation Establishment, I might possess Divine Sense of the Core Formation Realm.’
This is what truly matters compared to other things.
Divine Sense... is like a cultivator’s radar.
If your Divine Sense is strong, you can detect others before they detect you.
However, Ji Yuan looked at the panel without opting to upgrade immediately, since the condition had already been met, the choice to upgrade was naturally in his hands.
He wasn’t in the [Meditation Room] right now, so upgrading or not made no difference.
Moreover, Ji Yuan hoped that when upgrading, he could be in the [Meditation Room], to possibly receive an upgrade bonus and strengthen his Divine Soul significantly.
Hmm... At that time, it would be best to also cultivate the "Nine Chapters of the Soul Suppression Canon."
Maybe it could double the effect.
"Junior Brother, you seem quite happy?"
Dong Qian, who was walking ahead, turned back with a smile and inquired.
"Mm, meeting Senior Sister in this eerie... place is naturally delightful."
Ji Yuan replied casually.
"Indeed, I also feel there is some fate between us."
Dong Qian said with some implication.
Ji Yuan was about to ask further, but Dong Qian turned around again to continue leading the way.
After walking for about two or three miles, Ji Yuan’s probing Divine Sense ahead was suddenly shattered halfway, disappearing instantly.
"Hmm?"
With part of his Divine Sense crushed, Ji Yuan felt a sharp pain in his mind, instantly retracting the rest of his Divine Sense.
Fortunately, with the Soul Suppressing Bell still protecting his Divine Soul, its slight tremor soothed the wounds within Ji Yuan’s Divine Soul.
It also emitted a cool energy, aiding Ji Yuan in restoring his Divine Soul.
"Did you probe with your Divine Sense, Junior Brother?"
Dong Qian asked in surprise; she never expected Ji Yuan’s Divine Sense to be so strong... able to probe from such a distance.
"Mm."
Ji Yuan, with his pale face, nodded.
Such an obvious thing was not worth hiding.
"Stop probing; this is a Nascent Soul cultivator’s tomb."
He thought of taking a look to broaden his knowledge, and perhaps also spot some valuable items... Ji Yuan nodded in agreement.
"Alright."
After a while, they finally reached the main chamber of the tomb on foot.
Here, Dong Qian slowed her pace and put away the night-luminescent pearl.
As for Ji Yuan, he even quieted his footsteps and breathing.
"Don’t worry, there’s nothing dangerous here."
Dong Qian reassured and then entered the main chamber first. Seeing nothing abnormal happened, Ji Yuan chose to follow.
This main tomb chamber was extremely empty, with only a platform built at the center.
The platform was entirely made of Spirit Stone, and when Ji Yuan glanced at it, he first felt a surge of joy, but upon seeing clearly, the joy faded.
Although the Spirit Stones were still Spirit Stones, the Spiritual Qi inside was almost depleted.
Calculating all, he wasn’t sure it could even be sold for dozens of Mid-grade Spirit Stones.
Sitting atop this platform was a coffin.
The coffin was transparent, allowing Ji Yuan to clearly see the Nascent Soul cultivator’s... corpse inside.
Initially, he thought the Nascent Soul Monster would be an old man or woman, but seeing the appearance of this Fox Ancestor now, he realized he was quite mistaken.
Because the Fox Ancestor appeared to be a young and beautiful woman.
She wore a pink long dress, with her hands crossed over her lower abdomen.
Rather than dead, she seemed half asleep.
"The Spirit Stones below are to preserve her body; without them, her corpse would have already started decomposing."
Dong Qian didn’t say this aloud but chose to tell Ji Yuan through voice transmission.
"Mm, Senior Sister is here for?"
Ji Yuan scrutinized the corpse in the coffin. Strictly speaking, it was his first time seeing a fully authentic Nascent Soul cultivator... A dead Nascent Soul was still a Nascent Soul, right?
"To obtain some ancestral legacy memories and help in Six-tailed advancement."
Dong Qian answered without holding back.
She gently stroked Six-tails’ body, then placed it on her shoulder, slightly crouching to reveal her perfect body curves, especially the roundness behind her.
She softly said, "Junior Brother, just wait here for a moment; there will also be benefits for you."
"There are more benefits for me?"
Even though Ji Yuan had anticipated it, hearing Dong Qian say it still brought a bit of delight, "Then I shall wait." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
"Alright."
After speaking, Dong Qian had already knelt down, kowtowing three times in front of the corpse on the platform, meanwhile muttering something.
Ji Yuan perked his ears to listen... but couldn’t understand.
It was an entirely different language.
