Chapter 157 - Body Foundation Establishment!
Starting Chapter 157 of "Longevity through Upgrading Buildings": But before Ji Yuan could summon the panel, he saw a piece of jade slowly... See what happens next!
But before Ji Yuan could summon the panel, he saw a piece of jade slowly appear above the Pigsty.This jade was about the size of two fingers, showing a beautiful blue-green hue.
This is the Runyu Fat that can repair magical treasures?
Let alone now, even when I reach Foundation Establishment, Core Formation... even lifebound magical treasures at Core Formation Realm could use this stuff.
So, this Runyu Fat is definitely a superb thing!
If I use it as a gift to make friends with Golden Core Cultivators, giving Runyu Fat isnât shabby at all.
Ji Yuan beckoned, and the Runyu Fat landed in his hand.
Cool to the touch.
Even though it looks like jade, when held itâs soft, and a little pressure makes it change shapeâitâs honestly delightful to hold.
Why not... give it a try?
Ji Yuan pondered, then with a thought, took the Hundred Fish Shield out of his storage bag.
This old pal has followed Ji Yuan through countless fights. While itâs overall intact and its effect undiminished,
The surface inevitably bears a few scars.
Ji Yuan summoned the Qingfu Flying Sword again, shaved off a bit of the Runyu Fat, and placed it right on the Hundred Fish Shieldâs damaged spot.
Then he channeled Spiritual Qi in, and the Runyu Fat instantly melted, covering the scar. After just a few breaths, the scar on the Hundred Fish Shield vanished without a trace.
Itâs healed just like that?!
Damn useful!
Looks like next time I fight, I can really let loose, not afraid of wear and tear anymore.
Ji Yuan, fully satisfied, stowed the magical artifact away, and sealed the Runyu Fat in a dedicated jade box as well.
It produces only one tael a month, so I better use it sparingly.
Once the Runyu Fat was packed away, Ji Yuan finally looked to the panel.
Time to check the effect of Level 4 Pigsty.
Ji Yuan went over the Level 4 Pigstyâs spirit effects and upgrade conditions several times.
No need to comment on those upgrade requirements.
Just one word.
Hard!
But at least thereâs no cultivation restrictionâthatâs something.
As for the spirit effects, Pigsty finally has two effects at Level 4... though, about Spirit Effect 2.
Based on the effects at Levels 1, 2, and 3, this "Nine-turn Profound Sun" is probably the legendary cultivation technique for body refiningâin other words, the path Isle Master Tie Chui mentioned, for going further in physical cultivation... Ji Yuan understood all that.
But damn it, why is a body refining technique coming out of a Pigsty?!
I just want to hone my body, not become a pig...
What do pigs have to do with body training anyway?!
So later, when Iâm strong enough, am I supposed to be "the peerless Celestial Venerable who came from the Pigsty"?
After mentally slandering for a while, Ji Yuan could only accept reality.
Doesnât matter what kind of buildingâif it makes me stronger, itâs a good building!
As for Spirit Effect 1, it further boosts the body refining effect of Spirit Pigs.
The monthly "Profound Sun Blood Amber," Ji Yuan guessed, probably relates to the body refining technique "Nine-turn Profound Sun."
Blazing Sun Bones, pure Yang and pure force.
Absolutely good stuff, though exactly what, Iâll have to figure out later.
But anyway, Level 4 Pigstyâs effects have at last checked off a major concern for Ji Yuan.
The path of body refinement isnât a dead end!
As long as I can keep pushing forward, itâs all good.
And from the description of Spirit Effect 2... the one to impart "Nine-turn Profound Sun" is some ancient projection.
That nameâit sounds like thereâs a story behind it.
But the detailsâIâll have to wait until the Pigsty reaches Level 4 to find out.
Ji Yuan wasnât in a rush; even a Level 3 Pigsty is enough for his needs right now.
Runyu Fatâs already secured as a monthly welfare, so next up is the "Quenching Acupoint Pearl."
Ji Yuan asked Tu Yue to herd the Spirit Pigs back.
Right now there are a total of 14, and all of them are mature Spirit Pigs.
Ji Yuan waited until theyâd all entered the Pigsty, then casually beheaded one Spirit Pig with a swing of his sword. Instantly, blood spurted out, but before it even hit the ground, Ji Yuan used Artifact Manipulation Technique to gather up the gushing blood.
He waited until the last drop of blood was drained, then tossed this ball of blood straight into Big Toadâs mouth.
Big Toad gulped it downâall of a sudden, its eyes shone.
"Ribbitââ"
Its voice now carried a clear note of joy.
Big Toadâs had pigâs blood beforeâin fact, plenty of timesâbut itâd never been this happy.
So the Level 3 Pigstyâs effect is already showing?
With that thought, Ji Yuan promptly cut open the Spirit Pig.
Once the heart was extracted, he gave it another quick slice.
Inside lay a blood-colored pearl.
Ji Yuan picked it upâjust looking at it, he could sense the potent blood energy inside... Quenching Acupoint Pearl. So this is whatâs used to refine your acupoints?
Ji Yuan grabbed the pearl, leaving the pigâs corpse for now, and headed back to his Cave Mansion.
He calmed himself, held his breath, focusedâand then swallowed the Quenching Acupoint Pearl in a single gulp.
Instantly, it began refining.
The human body has 361 acupoints scattered over the twelve meridians plus the Ren and Du vessel.
