Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 607 - 272: The Power of Third-Gear [Spiritual Energy Cannon]
The [Spiritual Energy Cannon]... activated!
There was no reason to hesitate any longer. Just fill the silver aura of this Spiritual Energy Cannon with Spirit Stones to energize it.
Ji Yuan stood beside this Spiritual Energy Cannon, extending his right hand. A river of mid-grade Spirit Stones flew out from his sleeve, finally entering the aura.
The Spiritual Qi was naturally absorbed by the [Spiritual Energy Cannon], while the residual powder was swept away by the rough mountain wind.
Watching this scene, Ji Yuan felt as if his heart was bleeding.
He was breathing, but he felt like he was breathing Spirit Stones instead of air!
Every second, hundreds of Spirit Stones turned into powder and vanished.
To fill this [Spiritual Energy Cannon], it would cost tens of thousands of Spirit Stones in total.
What kind of opulent battle is this?
Ji Yuan never fought such a battle in his life.
While he was filling the void in the [Spiritual Energy Cannon], he also took the opportunity to retrieve the previously released Spirit-Devouring Bees.
These were precious treasures, and they suffered heavy losses under the gaze of that Three-eyed Dark Beast.
He feared that if the old demon launched a final counterattack, they would lose all the Spirit-Devouring Bees, which would be too high a price to pay.
He was waiting, waiting for the [Spiritual Energy Cannon] to finish charging.
However, Old Demon Duhai could wait no longer. Waiting any longer meant courting death!
...Damn it.
This is not the same body as before, and waking up so quickly, there wasn’t even time to refine the Lifebound Magical Treasure.
At this moment, Old Demon Duhai even resented Situ the Demon; if not for him, he wouldn’t have awoken this quickly.
And fighting an unprepared battle right after waking up.
Seeing the three of them charging at him again, he finally resorted to a life-risking strike.
With his right hand’s index and middle fingers together, a flash of Spiritual Light appeared, cutting through his fingers.
No blood flowed, but he still smeared it over his body, as if drawing runes.
Ran Kui, having fought countless battles with the Demon Dao, knew exactly what this meant when he saw it.
"Act now."
He transmitted his message through telepathy and immediately threw aside the bunch of hair in his hand.
Without his control, the hair took root in the void and began to grow wildly.
The growing hair, like hemp ropes, wrapped layer upon layer around Old Demon Duhai’s body.
In mere moments, the old demon turned into a black cocoon.
Feng Zitao and Yun Qianzai, seeing this, both unleashed their own binding techniques.
Feng Zitao’s technique involved a carved dragon and phoenix jade jar, its color a clear blue, opening and closing from the top and bottom. When she tossed it, the jade jar grew in the wind.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed to human size, closing at the top and bottom.
Seeing it about to imprison Old Demon Duhai, the hair binding the demon suddenly combusted.
Black flames emerged, and the hair was instantly consumed by roaring fire.
Ran Kui instinctively used a Water Technique, conjuring water in the void, but upon contact with the black flames, they only burned more fiercely, to no avail.
In an instant.
The black cocoon burned through, revealing Old Demon Duhai’s body to everyone once more, but this time he appeared even more sinister.
The Magic Robe on his body receded, leaving his upper body bare, dark runes covering his skin. His head was bald, nails pitch black, and black flames burned in his eyes.
Secret body refinement technique.
It focuses on refining one’s body into a corpse!
Thereby greatly enhancing power.
Witnessing the situation turning sour, Feng Zitao quickly closed the jade jar top and bottom.
But the result?
Old Demon Duhai sneered as his body unexpectedly grew. From a thin and hunched figure, he transformed into a giant over ten feet tall.
With his hands holding up the jade cover and his legs blocking the jade box.
His entire form directly blocked the closing jade jar.
Yet this also exposed his entire body, leaving all his weak points vulnerable.
"A great opportunity!"
Upon seeing this, Ran Kui’s eyes lit up, and he immediately activated his Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Celestial Poison Needle.
The hair-thin needle turned into a green light and instantly pierced Old Demon Duhai’s brow.
Just as Ran Kui thought he had succeeded, the Celestial Poison Needle only penetrated the tip of its point, unable to go any further.
"This..."
He used his body to block the Magical Treasure?
Ran Kui found it hard to believe, but he had to accept it now.
The green light representing poison on the Celestial Poison Needle visibly faded at a rapid pace.
Rather than the old demon being poisoned, it was as if he... absorbed the poison!
Meanwhile, Feng Zitao and Yun Qianzai also unleashed their cultivation techniques against Old Demon Duhai’s body.
Yet they couldn’t even break through his defense, just as the old demon previously did to them.
"Haa—"
Old Demon Duhai let out a low growl and suddenly exerted force, shattering the jade jar above and below.
He broke free, cackling maniacally, disappearing in a flicker, reappearing before Feng Zitao.
With a black flame-encased fist, he sent her flying back dozens of yards!
If not for Hua Yaoyue’s protective technique, this punch would have been enough to kill her ten times over.
Ran Kui transmitted frantically.
"It’s no good; does anyone have any more techniques? If we don’t bind him now, Junior Brother’s Spiritual Energy Cannon will be wasted!"
"We’ll all die!"
He unleashed protective measures, standing in front, yet was still blasted away by Old Demon Duhai with a single punch.
Having resolved to act like an immovable titan, it naturally led to the swift removal of obstacles!
After dealing with these two obstructing opponents, Old Demon Duhai fixed his gaze on the ground below.
