Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 843 - 345: Celebrate the Pill’s Success!

Upon hearing this, Wen Jiu glanced at the woman and said indifferently:

”Just hang it on mine.”

Without waiting for Ji Yuan to speak, Wen Jiu said first, ”It’s just a small thing, Daoist friend, no need to decline further.”

Ji Yuan naturally could see that this person intended to make friends with him, and after refusing a kind gesture once, if he were to reject even such a minor matter again, it would seem too discourteous.

”In that case, thank you, senior.”

Ji Yuan cupped his hands in a salute and then, after some thought, took out a brand new Communication Talisman from his Storage Bag, tapping lightly on it with both hands as he handed it over.

”This is the Communication Talisman of this junior. If senior has any inquiries in the future, feel free to contact me using it.”

Wen Jiu casually accepted it, his expression no longer as enthusiastic as it was initially.

The matter of Core Formation is one of intense effort in one go, then waning, and finally exhausting.

Having failed once, falling just short of success, making a Core Formation attempt again would be exceedingly difficult, as challenging as ascending to the heavens.

So what if a Fake Pill Cultivator truly comes from Tingtai Li, what’s the big deal?

It’s nothing more than that.

Nonetheless, out of courtesy, he still accepted it.

Seeing this, Ji Yuan summoned his Flying Boat and took his leave with a hand salute.

But as he left the mountaintop hall, and Wen Jiu was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a wisp of Spiritual Qi dissipating from the Communication Talisman that he had casually tossed into his Storage Bag.

”What is that...”

Wen Jiu’s footsteps halted, and a look of shock emerged in his eyes beneath the Iron Armor.

”Core Formation Stage mana!”

He abruptly turned around, but where could he still see the figure of Li Changshou behind?

He smiled under his Iron Armor and thought to himself, ”Well, well, having just achieved Core Formation and already such skill that even I couldn’t discern the trick, truly interesting... Moreover, with intention to conceal, if I hadn’t accepted the mat in the end, perhaps he wouldn’t have informed even me. It seems worth coming today after all!”

Soon after, Wen Jiu looked at the Communication Talisman within his Storage Bag, ”He just achieved Core Formation, surely there are still many matters to attend to. There’s no point in going now; better to wait for some time.”

Wen Jiu intended to build a connection.

For Ji Yuan, wasn’t it the same?

A Core Formation Cultivator from the Black and White Divine Hall extending an olive branch, seemingly not too old... It’s always good to have more friends when you’re new.

Upon leaving the mountaintop, he steered his Flying Boat down, and soon among the many Core Formation Cultivators, he saw those two familiar figures.

Liu Yuan and Mu Xueyao.

They quickly came up, but seeing Ji Yuan piloting the Flying Boat with a dejected spirit, they could hardly believe their eyes.

Mu Xueyao hadn’t expected that Ji Yuan really hadn’t made a breakthrough, and so the one who just broke through wasn’t him... but how could that be?

Liu Yuan intuitively thought, with Ji Yuan so well-prepared, failing to form a core, how could he emerge so quickly?

Doesn’t he want to make more attempts?

It’s been only a year... somewhat mysterious.

Seeing them approach, Ji Yuan forced a smile that was more miserable than crying, ”Next time... next time let’s try again.”

”Thanks to both of you.”

After speaking, without waiting for a reply, he drove the Flying Boat away.

Liu Yuan and Mu Xueyao hurriedly followed.

The remaining Core Formation Cultivators, seeing this, only voiced out after Liu Yuan also left:

”See, I said from the beginning, Core Formation isn’t simple?”

”Indeed, many renowned Fake Pill Cultivators have yet to succeed, and an obscure Loose Cultivator wants to form a core in one fell swoop? Too difficult, far too difficult.”

”I wonder which Daoist friend caused the previous anomaly, perhaps after breaking through and stabilizing the cultivation, they might come out soon.”

”By the way, could it be that Li Changshou was disrupted by the anomaly, missing his Core Formation?”

”No, the anomaly of Core Formation is beneficial for forming a core. Even if he perceived it, it would be advantageous to him. That he hasn’t formed a core today is entirely due to insufficient aptitude.”

”...”
