Chapter 366 - Divine Soul Technique Acquired
Chapter 366 of "Longevity through Upgrading Buildings" unveils a new twist: Ji Yuan took a moment to expel the several mid-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators from the... See what happens!
Ji Yuan took a moment to expel the several mid-stage Qi Cultivation cultivators from the array before he proceeded to take out Ma Xingkongâs Storage Bag.As for Yin Tongziâs, Ji Yuan had already swept through it briefly and found nothing particularly surprising.
There wasnât even a Talisman Treasure, so he wasnât in a rush to count the valuables.
But regarding Ma Xingkongâs Storage Bag... Ji Yuanâs Divine Sense penetrated it, and with just a quick sweep, his eyes lit up, and he held a Talisman in his hand.
The Talisman didnât have the usual runes but was instead engraved with a Giant Sword.
Ji Yuan refined it slightly.
Talisman TreasureâGiant Deer Sword!
It can still be used twice.
What a good thing, as expected of a late-stage Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator, he actually possessed such a good Talisman Treasure.
Putting aside everything else, just this still usable twice Talisman Treasure Giant Deer Sword was enough to make up for the expenditures this time. Everything else was profit!
After the brief joy, Ji Yuan felt a bit of lingering fear as he recalled.
He thought, what if Ma Xingkong had used this Talisman Treasure first?
The Giant Deer Sword is a Talisman Treasure of a slaughterous nature.
The two Talisman Treasures on Ji Yuan were one for trapping enemies and the other for escaping.
Not to mention slaughter, he didnât even have a Protective Talisman Treasure.
After careful consideration, he realized that only the Wine Cup given by Hua Yaoyue might withstand the Giant Deer Sword.
That Wine Cup that could withstand a Golden Core assault, for sure it could resist a Talisman Treasure used by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
But if that were the case, even if he could eventually kill Ma Xingkong, the losses would be significant.
âLuckily, I used the Talisman Treasure first. But, thinking about it, it makes sense. A mid-stage Foundation Establishment battling a late-stage one would definitely use everything they can. Moreover, I was thinking of ending the fight quickly and fleeing to avoid being caught by the Blood Demon.â
âBut what about Ma Xingkong? For a late-stage Foundation Establishment to suppress a mid-stage one like myself, he certainly wouldnât start by using a Talisman Treasure. Talisman Treasures are, after all, precious.â
âThinking from a switched perspective, even if I went to kill an early-stage Foundation Establishment, I would be reluctant to start with a Talisman Treasure. So, going forward, itâs best to be cautious when making a move, as the Cultivation Realm is full of old foxes. You never know if youâll encounter someone like me who starts with a Talisman Treasure. If I fall into a trap then, it would be terrible.â
Reflect on myself thrice a day.
After self-reflection, Ji Yuan continued to examine Ma Xingkongâs Storage Bag.
Among the Talismans, Elixirs, and Spirit Stones, Ji Yuan merely glanced over them. He mainly wanted to find the Yin Ghost Sectâs inheritance first.
"This Soul Banner..."
With a thought, Ji Yuanâs hand held a black banner similar to the Yin Ghost Banner, but slightly different, as this banner had golden embroidery around it, giving it a more domineering feel than the Yin Ghost Banner.
Sharing the same origin as the Yin Ghost Banner, Ji Yuan could feel the Yin Ghost Sectâs aura on it.
If so, what was he waiting for?
He grabbed it and refined it instantly!
After a while, Ji Yuan discovered the true nature of the banner.
The banner was called the "Thousand Souls Banner," a top-grade Spiritual Artifact. Initially, when it was just made, it was called the "Hundred Souls Banner," and later it was gradually enhanced to the Thousand Souls Banner.
Its quality was upgraded from being a top-grade Magical Artifact to being within the realm of top-grade Spiritual Artifacts.
"A Soul Banner, I actually got my hands on this treasure!"
Ji Yuan held it in his hand, joy filling his heart. In the future, he could finally say, "Daoist friend, danger lies ahead, how about taking shelter in my Human Emperor Banner?!"
Moreover, this Human Emperor Banner could be enhanced from a Magical Artifact to a Spiritual Artifact.
It must also be able to enhance its quality through gathering Yin Souls. Within Ma Xingkongâs inheritance, there must be the method to condense Yin Souls.
Ji Yuan thought of something else.
If Yin Souls could be condensed, then killing someone would indeed make full use of "Immortal Material" by utilizing it to the fullest.
First, itâs about killing to seize treasures, Storage Bags, Spiritual Artifacts, those go without saying.
Next, itâs about the blood essence of the killed, which can be absorbed by the Blood Marrow Pearl, used in crucial times to boost oneâs explosive power.
After absorbing the blood essence, the corpse can be recovered and buried in the Chaotic Burial Mound, upgrading the moundâs grade. If by chance itâs transformed into a Corpse Puppet, that would be another significant assistance.
Finally, thereâs the soul of the deceased.
Previously, whenever Ji Yuan killed, that was it; he had no Secret Technique targeting their souls.
But now, itâs different. If he truly had this inheritance, in the future after killing someone, he could refine their soul into a Yin Soul and collect it into the Soul Banner.
The full range of murder services.
Now born!
Having refined the Thousand Souls Banner, Ji Yuan naturally thought of upgrading it to the Ten Thousand Souls Banner soon.
Given this, where was the Yin Ghost Sectâs inheritance?
Could it be he didnât carry it with him, or did he destroy it after learning?
Ji Yuan searched through the Storage Bag several times, finding nothing. In the end, he had to take out all the Jade Scrolls containing records to check them one by one.
Most of them recorded various Foundation Establishment Cultivation Techniques, or basic and intermediate spells, all being pretty ordinary and not of much use.
The only somewhat novel thing for Ji Yuan was a Cultivation Technique.
It was named: "Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious Skill."
Though it could only be cultivated to the Peak of Foundation Establishment, the recorded wonders of Dual Cultivation caught his attention for a few extra glances. Unfortunately, it was a Cultivation Technique.
Cultivation Techniques canât be cultivated simultaneously.
Unless he abandoned the "Canglan Nine Tribulations Sword Manual" to switch to the "Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious Skill," there was no other way.
