Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 615 - 274: A Great Haul

Phoenix Peach was the first to shout.

The remaining Ren Kui also hurriedly stood up.

Already leaning against a rock, Yun Qianzai squeezed out a smile and nodded at Ji Yuan.

Surviving such a calamity, with all four brothers alive, that’s the best outcome.

"Your Sect Leader Martial Uncle will send someone to clean up this mess. If there’s nothing else, you should head back first."

After Hua Yaoyue finished speaking, Ren Kui had already taken out the building ship Flying Boat from his Storage Bag, with Hua Yaoyue still at the helm, Phoenix Peach following closely, and Ji Yuan supporting Yun Qianzai to board the Flying Boat.

Then, under the countless gazes of Black Dragon Island’s Qi Cultivation Stage disciples looking up at them, the building ship Flying Boat ascended into the clouds and finally headed directly west.

After boarding the deck, Ji Yuan and Ren Kui placed Yun Qianzai by the railing, and they themselves lay down as well.

The two surviving big and little senior brothers exchanged a smile.

"It was all thanks to the little brother. Without him, the four of us would likely have died there today." Ren Kui had a genuine sense of surviving a disaster.

After all, he had the most encounters and spent the longest time fighting that old sea demon.

Among those present, no one understood the terror of that old sea demon better than he did... he believed his own strength was decent and he lacked no means.

Though he may not dominate in the Golden Core early stage, he could ensure he wouldn’t lose.

Even against a mid-stage Core Formation cultivator not using Magical Treasure, he could withstand a few moves.

But this old sea demon?

Also mid-stage Core Formation, yet he left Ren Kui unable to resist at all.

Through the whole ordeal, he was passively beaten, and if not for the Elixir given by Ji Yuan, plus his own durable physique... he might not have lasted until Ji Yuan fired the cannon.

"And thanks to senior brothers and sister helping to hold off the old sea demon, otherwise, even with this Spiritual Energy Cannon, I wouldn’t have been able to use it."

Ji Yuan said, smiling at Yun Qianzai beside him.

"Besides, the Spiritual Energy Cannon was provided by second senior brother, and he helped repair it too."

The smile that was originally on Yun Qianzai’s face immediately returned to a cold, stern look, and he slightly raised his chin, with an air of great achievement.

But the reality...

He himself knew that the second-hand Spiritual Energy Cannon he provided didn’t have the power to kill a mid-stage Golden Core?

For one thing, it couldn’t be used so freely; for another, its power wasn’t that great.

Truly baffled about where Ji Yuan, the little brother, had acquired it.

"Alright, alright, stop being humble, the result was due to all of us, missing anyone wouldn’t work." Phoenix Peach, sitting next to Hua Yaoyue, waved his hand.

"Little brother, you haven’t said where that severed hand took you, and what happened afterwards. I searched for you for ages but couldn’t find you."

"About that."

Ji Yuan turned around, on the way back he consulted Hua Yaoyue’s opinion, which was not to mention being taken into the Fallen Immortal Gully, to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"That sly old demon took me east for a bit, then turned and took me south, finally hiding under the sea. Fortunately, I left some marks along the way for Master to find me."

Ji Yuan spoke while retrieving the corpse of the Three-eyed Dark Beast from his Storage Bag, "Right, this is a rare trophy, let’s divide it among the four of us."

Ren Kui then took out a Storage Bag.

"And Li Yuan’s Storage Bag is with me. I took a look; most of Black Dragon Island’s treasures are packed in his Storage Bag, likely planned by that old sea demon while he was holding Li Yuan."

"Let’s split it all."

No matter the time, sharing loot always brings joy.

The four of them had no conflicts, they all split evenly.

As for the corpse of the Three-eyed Dark Beast, Ji Yuan got a large leg and many spine bones... previously building upgrades used these bones, intuition told him they were valuable.

The remaining scales and armor were taken by Ren Kui; he claimed he could use them to create Top-grade Spiritual Artifact Level Protective Armor.

As for Li Yuan’s Storage Bag, Ji Yuan found just one Top-grade Spiritual Artifact.

A large knife, not his specialty.

Eventually, he converted his gains to Spirit Stones and only took a Celestial Thunder Seed, leaving everything else.

Considering the Celestial Thunder Seed, Ji Yuan decided to focus on enhancing his mastery over crafting upon returning, aiming to refine the Celestial Thunder Seed soon.

Yet, even like this, the four still made a loss.

Ji Yuan’s Spiritual Energy Cannon was destroyed and needed replacing, and Ren Kui and the others suffered severe injuries, even using the Wine Cup given by Hua Yaoyue.

Fortunately, Hua Yaoyue promised to make a new Wine Cup for each upon returning.

For protection.

Oh no, Ji Yuan doesn’t need it, nor does he feel any loss.

Not mentioning the unknown use of the Yin Ghost Sect Token, just the inherited Nascent Soul Technique alone is an incredibly precious thing.

Ji Yuan planned to first inherit it upon returning, waiting to see its effects before informing Hua Yaoyue.

He finally got the human-skin map... Ji Yuan didn’t have time to examine it in the Fallen Immortal Gully, now he had the chance, and so his Divine Sense entered the Storage Bag for a close look.

The human-skin map wasn’t large, when unfolded it roughly matched an adult man’s back.

It was marked with many lines all over, with references drawn, including seas, islands, reefs, and even sea beasts.

Ji Yuan examined it for a while, suddenly realizing what it was.

A Sea Map!

The sea map that the old sea demon used to traverse between continents — that’s it!

Having discovered its purpose, Ji Yuan quickly found his earlier entry point on the map’s left, and the distance he’d traversed represented only a fraction of the map.

The subsequent journey was extremely complex.

Just slight carelessness could lead to deep despair.

Like in the latter part of the sea map, there was a red-marked region.

[Tier Four Sea Beast Swallowing Whale Activity Area].

Is this treasure?

Without a doubt, this is a great treasure!

So Ji Yuan, after a little consideration, transmitted to Hua Yaoyue, saying, "Master, I have obtained the sea map of the old sea demon."
