Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 899: Chapter 355: Better You Than Me

With Chasing Lightning on his side, Ji Yuan felt very confident now.

He just wondered what he’d encounter after passing this level.

"Stay close, don’t fall behind. Daoist Xing, you and I will join forces to carve out a bloody path!"

Just as Ling Juexiao’s voice rang out, Ji Yuan saw a small blood-colored sword flying out of his body.

At first, it was only the thickness of a finger, but once it left the body, it grew larger with the wind, quickly transforming into a dark red sword three feet two inches long, with what seemed like flowing blood within the blade.

Xing Shuang silently bent her bow and nocked an arrow, "Brother Changgeng, protect me from the rear."

Xing Shuang’s voice echoed in Ji Yuan’s mind. Now, they faced Tier Three Yin Beasts in front and Tier Two Yin Beasts behind.

This was by far the safest.

"Alright."

Ji Yuan was happy with this arrangement.

"Swish—"

At the forefront, Ling Juexiao made a hand gesture, causing the blood-colored sword to transform into a blood spiral, slashing forward. Wherever it passed, the Tier Three Yin Beasts scattered.

But only the early-tier ones did so, as when a mid-tier Tier Three Yin Beast appeared, it suddenly opened its mouth wide and bit down.

The blood spiral wreaked havoc inside its mouth.

Xing Shuang’s hands pulled the golden great bow to a full moon, aiming at the mid-tier Tier Three Yin Beast.

"Bang—" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Ji Yuan watched as Xing Shuang released the arrow, instantly killing two early-tier Tier Three Yin Beasts, and then the arrow joined the sword inside the mouth of the mid-tier beast.

One arrow... pierced through!!

The Yin Beast was killed, transforming into a pure Yin Crystal and dropping.

The four advanced once more, but the death of that mid-tier beast seemed to have enraged the Yin Beast pack, as more Tier Three Yin Beasts joined from the mountain sides.

Most of them were mid-tier.

"Prioritize survival!"

Ling Juexiao, leading, saw the situation and shouted seriously.

"Brother Changgeng, stay close to me!"

Xing Shuang recalled the previous words, despite many mid-tier beasts charging, still urging Ji Yuan to stay close.

"Alright!"

Just as Ji Yuan responded, two mid-tier beasts emerged, separating them into two groups.

Xing Shuang floated in the air, continuously pulling her bow.

But now the arrows were not like before; whereas earlier they were powerful shots, now they were normal attacks.

Ji Yuan also wielded the Flying Sword aggressively.

But he only used ordinary strikes with the Canglan Sword, not the Purple Sky Divine Thunder.

Thus, his performance seemed quite ordinary.

Seeing each of the four now separated, despite Xing Shuang’s efforts to protect him, as more mid-tier beasts appeared, she was overwhelmed.

’It’s about time!’

Ji Yuan’s divine sense enveloped the surroundings, ensuring no one noticed him, then casually cut down an early-tier beast in front.

Along with collecting a few Yin Crystals, he softly called out.

"Chasing Lightning!"

The moment the dark cloud appeared, another Canglan Sword flew out, stabbing straight into the cloud beneath his feet.

"Sizzle—"

Lightning flashed, and Ji Yuan shot straight towards the depths of the Secret Realm.

But just as he set off, he felt as if someone was watching him.

Soon, a curious voice sounded in his ear.

"Huh?"

As the voice fell, Ji Yuan felt a huge finger pressing on his head.

Instantly, the swift Chasing Lightning Cloud was forcibly stopped. freёwebnovel.com

He was firmly pressed back to the ground.

The previously activated Chasing Lightning Cloud now reverted to a wisp of breath, swirling around him.

No matter how he tried to activate it, the cloud remained motionless, as if dead.

... What the heck is this?!

How can it even pin down the Chasing Lightning Cloud?

Frightened, Ji Yuan looked up and saw two mid-tier Tier Three Yin Beasts charging at him.

Seeing no way to avoid them, Ji Yuan decided not to hold back anymore.

He raised his hand in a sword gesture, the Thunder Strike Sword beneath his feet pointed upwards.

From its tip, strands of Purple Sky Divine Thunder gathered.

"Boom—"

The Flying Sword collided with the beasts, releasing the Purple Sky Divine Thunder from its blade.

Being inherently skilled in Thunder Technique, the Thunder Strike Sword...

Suddenly unleashed several powerful Purple Sky Divine Thunder bolts.

A natural nemesis of the Yin Beasts.

Upon collision, the beasts froze, their life force rapidly declining.

Ji Yuan transformed into escape light, flying upwards, while a huge Canglan Sword appeared behind him as he made hand gestures.

Giant Que!

He waved his right hand, the Giant Que Sword cleaving down like a guillotine.

The dispersed Purple Sky Divine Thunder even caused the surrounding beasts to scatter.

"Rumble—"

The two trapped mid-tier beasts had no way to escape, watching helplessly as the Giant Que Sword fell from above.

One cut, beheaded!

The two mid-tier beasts transformed into fist-sized Yin Crystals, collected by Ji Yuan into his Storage Bag. The remaining two Flying Swords were also stored similarly.

While putting them in the Storage Bag is a backup strategy, storing them inside himself would be hard to explain.

Only the initial Canglan Sword remained in his grasp.
