Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 512 - 241: Plotting for Level 4 [Pigsty]

"Yes." Ji Yuan did not hide, but replied frankly, "I was originally preparing to go out to refine the Flying Sword, but now with the Demon Dao starting, I can’t go out."

"Remember the few places I told you about?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"I remember, last time I went to Mirror Lake."

Almost died there... Ji Yuan didn’t dare to say this aloud.

"One of the places is called Ice and Fire Island."

"Yes, heading south and then going out to sea, there’s a peculiar lake on that island... I plan to go there later, thinking to go to Thunder Shock Marsh first."

Ji Yuan nodded as he spoke.

Thunder Shock Marsh has ’Thunder Strike Elixir’, which can be used to refine a ’Thunder Strike Sword’ that comes with Thunder Technique.

Ji Yuan felt he would inevitably deal with those evil paths in the future, so a Thunder Strike Sword was a necessity.

"If you urgently need these things, go to Ice and Fire Island to refine the Flying Sword first, and when you return, take some time to reflect and see if you can enhance your insights. Then go to Thunder Shock Marsh on the way back."

Li Changhe explained, "The reason for you to go to Ice and Fire Island is because there’s a massive active volcano there, and at the bottom of the volcano, there’s a fire vein."

"Fire Cultivators have been cultivating there for years, and they have a way to obtain Fire Vein Spirit Marrow. Bring plenty of Spirit Stone to trade with them."

Ji Yuan nodded after hearing this, "This is the clue for the Fire Vein Spirit Marrow, and what about the other way?"

"The other way is the spine of the Three-eyed Dark Beast that you need, and it’s also on Ice and Fire Island."

"What, it’s also there?"

Ji Yuan was pleased to hear this, which made Ice and Fire Island seem necessary to visit.

"Yes."

"There’s a Golden Core Zhenren on the island named Ice and Fire Elder, late-stage Golden Core, very powerful... It’s said he’s the only one who fell into that peculiar lake and survived."

"He originally cultivated the Fire Technique, but after falling into the peculiar lake, he could also use the Ice Technique, very strange, and his temperament became somewhat eccentric. My Li Family knows he once killed a Three-eyed Dark Beast, and he probably still has the spine you need."

Li Changhe explained the reason thoroughly.

Ji Yuan noted it down and couldn’t help but ask, "That’s good, but I’m just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator going over... will he pay attention to me?"

"Did you forget the Token I gave you?"

Li Changhe said with a smug look, crossing his arms and slightly leaning back.

Ji Yuan realized, "It seems this Ice and Fire Elder is a contact of the Li Family on Ice and Fire Island?"

"Exactly, he occupies that peculiar lake now, and if he hadn’t agreed, how could people from the Li Family go there to refine Flying Swords?"

"Brilliant, truly brilliant."

Ji Yuan couldn’t help but give Li Changhe a thumbs up.

The connections of the Li Family are truly impressive.

They manage to control every place where Flying Swords can be refined.

"Ha, just some remnants of our ancestors."

Li Changhe waved his hand, as if saying it’s nothing.

Ji Yuan nodded slightly, setting aside whether he could get these two items to upgrade the ’Pigsty’, at least for now, he had a way.

Moreover, the Li Family was only the first choice; next, he could go ask Hua Yaoyue if she had any news of the Taiyi Blue Light Talisman.

Just as Ji Yuan was preparing to say farewell and leave, Li Changhe transmitted a message to him, saying:

"Next, our Li Family will focus on building the Alchemy Square at Wangcheng Mountain, and once the Market is established, I’ll talk to the Sect Leader Martial Uncle about assigning you to the Alchemy Square... I remember you know Alchemy, right?"

"I do."

Ji Yuan also transmitted a message back.

"Then that’s settled. Once you go to the Alchemy Square, you won’t need to go to Shang Mountain. At least you can cultivate peacefully for a while."

Li Changhe finished speaking, patted Ji Yuan’s shoulder, and rose to leave.

"Wait, wait."

Ji Yuan hurriedly stopped him.

"Speak, what else do you need?" Li Changhe couldn’t help but laugh.

"Two Tier Three Demon Pills, one water-type, one fire-type, do you have these?"

Nascent Soul Family, might just have legendary Tier Four Demon Pills; Tier Three Demon Pills shouldn’t be a problem.

"We have them, I’ll go fetch them when I return, and deliver them to Wuyou Island in two days."

"Then many thanks to Brother Li."

Ji Yuan rose and bowed to him, Li Changhe nodded slightly, then turned and left the place.

Ji Yuan watched his departing figure, feeling somewhat dazed.

He did save his life indeed, but now it seems their Li Family is truly remarkable in supporting him.

Even during the time of this Demon Dao invasion, they still think of helping him out, and from Li Changhe’s words... their Li Family and Huang Family seem to have reached some mutual understanding, preparing to use centuries of savings to turn Wangcheng Mountain’s Alchemy Square into a second fortress.

Sly rabbit and three warrens.

Water Dragon Sect is one warren.

Wangcheng Mountain plains are another warren.

Based on their thousand-year layout, there is likely another warren, but who knows where it might be.

But for Ji Yuan, this counts as a good thing, at least there is someone willing to accept, and he knows where to go.

Indeed, going to the Alchemy Square is better than going to Shang Mountain.

Moreover, once these Alchemy and Artifact Refining Squares are established, they will likely become the places many Foundation Establishment Cultivators want to protect. Li Changhe’s words today count as giving him a ticket in advance.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan sighed in his heart and summoned his Flying Boat towards the east.

Wan You Island.

When Ji Yuan arrived, Phoenix Peach was still lying beside Hua Yaoyue in a daze.

Seeing this, an idea suddenly popped into Ji Yuan’s mind... Phoenix Peach seems to regard Hua Yaoyue as a mother, and the more he pondered it, the more believable it seemed.

The more he thought, the more it seemed like it.

"What is it this time?"

Before Ji Yuan could pay respects, Hua Yaoyue glanced at him and directly asked.

"This..."

Why does everyone feel I visit without cause?

Can’t I just come to greet Master?

Since it was noticed, Ji Yuan didn’t bother to conceal and directly asked, "Master, have you heard of the Taiyi Blue Light Talisman?"

"I’ve heard."

Hua Yaoyue lifted her head, looking at her closed-door disciple with interest.

Ji Yuan felt a thrill, hurriedly asked, "Where?"

"You need this item?"

"Very much so."

Ji Yuan nodded emphatically.

Hence Hua Yaoyue, who had lifted her head, sat up slowly and then said:

"In the Desolate Ancient Continent."
