Chapter 314 - Old Friends Are Like Fallen Leaves in the Wind
Chapter 314 of "Longevity through Upgrading Buildings" reveals: After Ji Yuan took out the Ice Soul Cold Dew, he didnât even need to... Keep reading!
After Ji Yuan took out the Ice Soul Cold Dew, he didnât even need to say a word before the Frost Serpent poked its head out and swallowed the Cold Dew in one gulp.The Cold Dew entered its belly.
The Frost Serpentâs whole body surged for a moment, and cold air seeped out through the gaps in its scales.
Ji Yuan could actually feel distinctly that the cold aura inside the Frost Serpent had grown denser.
This thing is actually so effective for the Frost Serpent?
Damn, itâs good for me too!
If you absorb enough Ice Soul Cold Dew, your spiritual qi can carry ice attribute effects. So Ji Yuan almost never wastes his daily three drops of Ice Soul Cold Dew.
The Cold Dew heâs feeding the Frost Serpent now is from a few days ago.
Before that, it was all refined by Ji Yuan himself.
"So not only does this thing eat a lot, but now itâs fighting me for food?"
Ji Yuan looked at the Frost Serpent coiled around his arm, rubbing its head against him over and over, and felt a bit of heartache.
"If you get strong in the future, fine. But if youâre weak, Iâll chop you up! Kill you and eat your meat!"
Ji Yuan pointed at the Frost Serpent, threatening viciously.
After saying that, he still fed it another drop of Ice Soul Cold Dew.
produces 3 drops a day. Ji Yuan plans to feed the Frost Serpent two drops daily and refine one for himself.
This type of demon beast, the Frost Serpent, will level up much faster than he will. Itâs best to get its strength up ASAP. Even if it doesnât reach Tier Three, just getting it to Tier Two would be a huge help.
"Eat!"
"All you know is eat!"
After feeding the Ice Soul Cold Dew, Ji Yuan was about to toss the Frost Serpent back into the , but then something occurred to himâif he puts it back, the remaining Spirit Fish in there wonât have any hope of survival.
Theyâll all get eaten by the Frost Serpent.
Normal Spirit Fish getting eaten is one thing.
But the ones in Ji Yuanâs all have the potential to transform into serpentâtheyâre carp with latent dragon blood!
If one of them really does transform someday, even if Ji Yuan doesnât use it himself, he could auction it off... that would go for thousands of Mid-grade Spirit Stones.
"Little money-burner!"
Ji Yuan decided to chuck the Frost Serpent over to the Cloud Rain Marsh and let it fend for itself.
Itâs already recognized its master, so heâs not worried about it running away.
"Croakââ"
Suddenly, a rather gloomy croak sounded from behind him.
Ji Yuan turned around with the serpent still wrapped around his arm, spotting the Big Toad bowing its head. Turns out itâs not just sulky with its voiceâeven its gaze looks sad.
"Uh..."
Ji Yuan thought about it; he really has kind of neglected the Big Toad lately.
But he really has been busy, especially since reaching Foundation Establishment.
No biggie. Ji Yuan pulled two Spirit Pigs from his Storage Bag and tossed them over. The Big Toad was instantly satisfied... Thatâs right, he can just feed the Frost Serpent with pigs.
No reason not to eat these Spirit Pigs. Eating them even boosts beastly physique.
Didnât you see the Big Toad managed to break through after eating some?
"Eat, you eat too!"
Ji Yuan pulled out another Spirit Pig and tossed it to the ground, while throwing down the Frost Serpent as well.
Serpent eats pig.
At first, the Frost Serpent looked reluctant, but when Ji Yuan casually sliced the Spirit Pig in half and the flavor of flesh spread out, it lost any reluctance.
Right away it sprawled out with its four legs and dug in, eating with gusto.
The Big Toad saw the Frost Serpent eating the same food as itself and immediately got annoyed, bellowing loudly at the serpent.
The Frost Serpent, only mid-stage Tier One, showed no fear facing a late-stage Tier Two Big Toad. Instead, it blew a breath of cold air right at it.
Ji Yuan watched from the sideâif the Frost Serpent were at the same rank as the Big Toad, just one frosty breath and the toad would be frozen solid.
But right now... the cold breath hit the Big Toad.
The Big Toad wasnât harmed at all, and in fact seemed to enjoy it. It moved closer challengingly, like "Come on, hit me again if you dare."
The Frost Serpent got annoyed and spat another mouthful of cold air.
Result... still the same.
"Croak croak croakââ"
The Big Toad looked up at the sky and croaked, clearly delighted.
Seeing the Frost Serpent still wanting to fight, go all out do-or-die, Ji Yuan hurriedly separated them.
First, he sent the Big Toadâwhoâd eaten its fillâdown into the water to catch some Tier Two demon beasts for snacks, then he tossed the Frost Serpent to the other side of the island.
This spot is too close to the ; Ji Yuan was worried itâd sneak over for a midnight feast.
Now that both sword embryos are finished, his cultivation has reached the peak of early Foundation Establishment. If you break it down like the Qi Cultivation Stage, heâs at the third layer of Foundation Establishment.
Next, he just needs to dig deeper into the Sword Manual, and heâll be able to attempt a breakthrough to mid-stage Foundation Establishment.
As for spirit beasts, the Frost Serpent Ji Yuanâs coveted for ages is finally his.
After everything, he finally feels a wave of relief.
He can finally focus on his cultivation again.
When busy, he cultivates; when free, he works on alchemy and talisman painting; if heâs not in the mood for anything, he just meditates in the to raise his divine sense.
In short, his strength is steadily climbing, and Ji Yuan genuinely enjoys the sense of getting results from hard work.
Two days later.
Ji Yuan, cultivating on Mist Island, suddenly received a message from Isle Master Tie Chui.
He figured the old man probably ran out of elixir.
But lo and behold, after sinking his divine sense into the Communication Talisman, the loud voice of the senior echoed in his mind.
"Ji, when did another island pop up next to your Wuyou Island? Damn, I took a look passing byâyour junior sisterâs got quite the looks! You donât have a Dao Companion yet, right? Seize the chance, man! Donât let it slip, hahahahaha."
