Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 637 - 282: Scripture Pavilion: Level 2

"Regular thanks to Master for the provisions."

After returning to Wuyou Island, Ji Yuan once again took out the three demon pills in his hand and looked at them, feeling somewhat emotional.

Otherwise, if he had to collect these Tier Three Demon Pills on his own, maybe during peacetime he could rely on the Li Family to collect them throughout Shang Dong, at most spending more Spirit Stones.

But now that a great war has started, Tier Three Demon Pills have become extremely scarce resources.

The alliance of six sects has been gathering them everywhere in Shang Dong, not to mention the Water Dragon Sect has none, even the Li Family’s stock has been depleted... at least that’s what Li Changhe said.

But Ji Yuan definitely didn’t believe it; a seasoned family like the Li Family must still have a batch of demon pills hidden.

However, those are naturally reserved for themselves, certainly not to be taken out for an outsider like Ji Yuan, which he understands, but there’s no way around it.

Ultimately, he still needs to become stronger quickly himself, such as forming a core as soon as possible, and then hunting Tier Three Demon Beasts in the Endless Sea.

By that time, upgrading buildings will be much easier.

Not like now, entirely relying on his master for help.

As he pondered, Ji Yuan passed through the hall into the courtyard, eventually arriving in front of the Scripture Pavilion. Here, without thinking, he began comprehending the Sword Manual in his mind instinctively.

Upon entering, he looked at the words on the wall.

[Sword Manual: 88/100]

Just two more to reach the mark, even if the Scripture Pavilion doesn’t upgrade, with around forty days it should be enough.

But right now...

Ji Yuan came to the bookshelves one by one; he had already collected 24 Golden Core Techniques, and nearly 100 Foundation Establishment Techniques, leaving some Nascent Soul Techniques...

Ji Yuan took out a black cheekbone from his storage bag, displaying patterns on it.

He arrived at the last empty bookshelf.

Solemnly placing this black cheekbone at the top, beneath the cheekbone was a delicately shaped jade plate supporting it, with dragons entwined on the jade plate, their heads held high.

After arranging these cultivation techniques, Ji Yuan again took out the 3 Tier Three Demon Pills Hua Yaoyue had just given from his storage bag.

Once retrieved, Ji Yuan placed them next to the Nascent Soul Techniques, with a casual swipe of his hand, 1,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones appeared on the ground.

After setting up these arrangements, he looked up at the words above him.

[Scripture Pavilion: lv1 (upgradeable)]

Finally!

A new building can be upgraded.

Ji Yuan thought of upgrading, and with a streak of light flashing across the panel, the words above him slightly shifted.

[Scripture Pavilion: lv2]

Soon after, patterns emerged on the surrounding walls, exuding profound Daoist charm that made Ji Yuan feel utterly delighted.

Even the bottleneck within his heart showed signs of loosening.

During a building upgrade, it’s extremely easy to trigger a critical hit!

Ji Yuan was already aware of this,

Thus, as soon as he thought of it, he quickly sat down on the spot, along with activating the effects of the Enlightenment Room.

He wanted to seize the opportunity of the Scripture Pavilion’s upgrade to see if he could improve the Sword Manual’s proficiency to 90 in one go.

Upon sitting, Ji Yuan immersed himself in a state of profound enlightenment of the Dao.

When he reopened his eyes, the phenomenon accompanying the building upgrade had long vanished.

A glimmer of brilliance flashed through his eyes, immediately looking at the wall right ahead of him.

No longer was it just a single line of simple text.

Instead, there was a dense array of text.

Yet, at the forefront, hanging high on the wall, was still the Sword Manual.

[Sword Manual: 90/100]

Success!

Ji Yuan immediately attempted to perceive the Water Transport of Heaven and Earth, indeed, there was no longer that feeling of rejection from within the Dantian.

This indicated he could already condense the last lifebound flying sword!

Ji Yuan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, his suspended heart also settled down.

Now, all that remains is to wait for Hua Yaoyue to return.

Once the final Evergreen Sword is fully condensed, then nine swords combine, it can assist him in stepping into the Peak of Foundation Establishment.

By then, he should start considering the formation of the core.

Ji Yuan wasn’t too pressured about this matter; at most, he would wait several more decades, wait for a few additional Pill Essence Fruits, and then break through the Golden Core barrier in one go.

On the wall, beneath the line of text for the Sword Manual, were the proficiency records of various techniques.

[Water Dragon Technique: 31/100]

[Follow Like a Shadow: 28/100]

[Black Mist Dispersion Body: 38/100]

[...]

The text was dense and plentiful, indicating that Ji Yuan had learned a myriad of techniques; from intermediate magic to beginner spells like the Water Ball Technique, all were listed on the wall.

For a moment, Ji Yuan understood his cultivation state completely.

This even gave him a sense of sudden enlightenment.

Cultivation was no longer a misty domain but had become a wide and traceable avenue.

After seeing everything, he finally knew which spell had the highest proficiency on him.

[Water Arrow Technique: 87/100]

"Damn, this is near perfection."

Also, the proficiency of the Water Arrow Technique was exceptionally high, seeing this situation, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but think of the path he had taken.

After just crossing over to Zengtou City, this Water Arrow Technique was the first spell Ji Yuan learned.

Afterward, he relied on the Water Arrow Technique, traversing north to south in Cloud Rain Marsh.

Inside the Fish Pond, he killed countless fish and exterminated many enemies with it.

After the Foundation Establishment Stage, what Ji Yuan relied on was the various magical and spiritual artifacts.

Ultimately, compared to magic, spiritual artifacts consume less and attack quicker.
