Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 834 - 343: Level 4 [Fish Pond]; Level 2 [Ant Nest]

”Ant Tribe Giant? Wouldn’t that make it an Antman?”

Ji Yuan joked to himself, then smoothly activated this Spirit Effect.

Soon, the scattered blazing fire army ants on the ground seemed to be summoned, flowing like a tide toward the direction of the Ant King.

In just a moment, a large number of ants had gathered around the Ant King, climbing over each other and piling up, with the Ant King’s position getting higher and higher.

Seeing this, Ji Yuan felt as if he could hear the Ant King’s call.

”I’m here to form the head!”

After about three or five breaths of time, a huge black Antman appeared before Ji Yuan.

It stood about two zhang tall.

Two zhang was not the limit of this Antman, but the limit of the cave.

”Not bad. The Ant King plus three early-tier two army ants form an Antman with late-stage Foundation Establishment strength. Given time, when the Ant King reaches the peak of tier two, the Antman should have Golden Core stage power.”

”If it upgrades to tier three... then this Antman will be strong.”

With this thought, Ji Yuan looked at this level 3 [Ant Nest] Spirit Effect again.

[Ant Nest: lv3 (Upgradable)]

[Spirit Effect 1: Ant colony reproduction speed +50%; Ant colony recovery speed +40%; Ant colony advancement probability +15%.]

[Spirit Effect 2 (Fire God Spear): Blazing fire army ants can transform into the Fire God Spear, striking like a dragon, unstoppable!]

[Upgrade Conditions: 900 Mid-grade Spirit Stones; Ant King Cultivation reaches tier three; Ant colony reaches 80,000; 3 Tier Three Demon Pills; 1 Divine Fire Ant corpse. (Not achieved)]

Sure enough, it appeared!

Seeing this second Spirit Effect, Ji Yuan instantly got excited, wishing he could upgrade the [Ant Nest] to level 3 right on the spot.

By that time, dressed in Spirit Devouring Armor and wielding the Fire God Spear, his body cultivation strength would definitely receive a further boost.

When that time comes... hehehe!

Who knows what realm the strongest body cultivator on the Extreme Abyss Continent is in?

Wonder if there are any Bone Forging Realm cultivators; if there are, he could make acquaintances and see if he can borrow their Body Cultivation Techniques to peruse.

After looking at the Spirit Effects, Ji Yuan dispersed the giant Antman.

His life returned to peacefulness, only venturing out to purchase materials needed for building upgrades when receiving messages from various auction houses.

The remaining concern was with Liu Yuan.

For half a year, there was no news, causing Ji Yuan to become increasingly worried.

In the vast Extreme Abyss, who knows where Du Wanyi was taken.

Actually, when Ji Yuan returned from Yunkong City, he had a suspicion.

That was about the Turtle Shell Du Wanyi last left behind.

Logically, she left it in front of that strange person. Why didn’t that person destroy the Turtle Shell but let it remain?

Ji Yuan did not know.

All he could do was search through various materials during his leisure time to see if he could find any description related to that strange person.

A year after returning from Yunkong City.

Liu Yuan finally visited, unsurprisingly with no results.

”I contacted four forces, basically scoured the entire West Border City but couldn’t find the Isle Master of Taian, seems she likely didn’t come to this West Border City.”

Ji Yuan stayed silent for a long time, then could only agree.

”Brother Ji, you should focus on cultivation, strive to achieve Core Formation soon. When you have strength and find the Isle Master of Taian’s clues, we’ll be able to go rescue her.”

Liu Yuan worried this matter would affect Ji Yuan’s mindset, so he spoke reassuringly.

”Alright, I understand this matter.”

Ji Yuan nodded, showing he was fine.

He then called Mu Xueyao over, allowing Liu Yuan to meet her, after all, they might cross paths in the future, better to know each other’s existence.

Two years later.

Ji Yuan finally obtained a tier three Ice Attribute Demon Pill at an auction hosted by Pavilion Master Tingtao.

With this, the [Fish Pond] upgrade was finally settled.

On this day.

The weather was clear.

In Ji Yuan’s [Cave Mansion], he first set up the tier three Reversed Rivers and Lakes Arrays, then arranged several other arrays to conceal aura.

He came to the [Fish Pond], didn’t hesitate, and took out all the upgrade materials.

Mid-grade Spirit Stones, one still-warm tier three Ice Attribute Demon, the tier three Poison Serpent he slayed before, and three Dragon Blood Stones brought from Cangluo Continent.
