Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 1210: Chapter 418: Who’s Really Scheming Against Whom?

A profound fear followed.

’Damn it, when there’s no reason for someone to act nice, it’s either deceit or theft. Mei Manor acts so kind when there’s something wrong... if things were truly as easy as he says, why would he act like this? With such behavior, I’m afraid I’ll pay a high price.’

’Probably it’s going to be my... life!’

Ji Yuan subconsciously had this thought.

No matter what he thought in his heart, at least on the surface, Ji Yuan maintained basic decency, so he bowed deeply to Mei Manor and said solemnly:

”No problem, thank the Manor Master for his protection.”

”It’s good that there’s no problem, it’s good.”

Mei Manor said as if he could barely hold back, spat out a mouthful of bloody foam, and his face looked better. Then he turned around and patted Ji Yuan’s shoulder again.

”In a while, it will depend on you, my young friend.”

”Rest assured, Manor Master!”

The person was right in front of him, still patting his shoulder, so Ji Yuan naturally provided the best emotional support.

The two Tier Four mid-stage transformed demons beside them gathered together, sitting cross-legged on the ground to adjust their state.

Ji Yuan sensed the increasingly intense heat, lowered his head to look.

Only to see that after the array dispersed, the aura of the Soul-Devouring Burning Yuan Fire became even stronger and more distinct, just a simple glance down made Ji Yuan’s eyes ache with the dazzling white light.

So much so that he immediately stepped back.

Mei Manor seemed to not notice his reaction at all, speaking to himself:

”The Soul-Devouring Burning Yuan Fire only exists at three meters above the surface of this volcanic lake. After passing those three meters, it turns into ordinary magma, so you just need to withstand the three meters.”

”The opportunity lies even deeper... I don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s bound to be very conspicuous. Once you go in, just grab it and bring it back.”

”Rest assured, with your current physique cultivation and your body cultivator phenomena, you definitely can pass through this Soul-Devouring Burning Yuan Fire effortlessly.”

Mei Manor tempted him gently.

Ji Yuan hesitated briefly but ultimately nodded in agreement: ”Alright, there’s no time to lose, I’ll set off now.”

”Okay.”

Mei Manor was extremely pleased with his performance and nodded repeatedly.

Ji Yuan took a deep breath, then leapt into the air, transforming into escape light as he rose from the high platform and fell down. When he revealed himself again, he had arrived at the edge of the volcanic lake.

Once he moved, he immediately caught the attention of the other two transformed demons.

Three pairs of eyes all focused on Ji Yuan.

He sensed the scorching heat before him that burned his skin painfully... mana was useless, so he could only use blood qi.

As soon as the thought arose in his heart, he no longer suppressed the blood qi within him.

In an instant, an extremely rich life energy emanated from him, and the blood qi seemed so concentrated that it manifested visibly around his body.

But it was swiftly dissolved by the heat.

On the high platform.

The Great Crocodile Ancestor and the Green Robe Ancestor’s eyes brightened as they sensed the blood qi on Ji Yuan.

”Huff—”

Ji Yuan exhaled heavily, then released his body cultivator phenomena. When the Great Sun appeared behind him, Ji Yuan’s body floated, arriving above the surface of the volcanic lake.

He controlled his body little by little downward.

Until his feet submerged into the white flames... sure enough, he could withstand it!

The physique at the peak of the Muscle Forging Realm, the body cultivator phenomena behind him, and the Partridge Armor within, the three together were indeed able to completely block the Soul-Devouring Burning Yuan Fire!

After confirming there was no problem, Ji Yuan no longer hesitated.

His body gradually submerged in the volcanic lake, eventually disappearing.

At the same time.

Above the volcanic crater, three divine senses converged, transmitting messages to each other: ”Holy Master, you did say that once the matter is done, I get to enjoy his physique!”

”Alright, the physique is yours. The Star-Stepping Wheel I vowed... so it will go to Green Robe.”

”Thank you, Holy Master.”

”I’m rather interested in the body cultivator legacy he carries.”
