Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 408 - 208: Alchemy Room + Array Room + Talisman Room + Artifact Refining Room = ?

Chapter 408: Chapter 208: Alchemy Room + Array Room + Talisman Room + Artifact Refining Room = ?

Upon arriving, Ji Yuan sensed the scorching ground and directly took out the relic of Isle Master Tie Chui from his Storage Bag.

Two Top-grade Spiritual Artifacts.

The Three Mountain Forging Furnace and the Earth Press Hammer.

Seeing these two familiar items, it was as if the hearty laughter of the old predecessor echoed in Ji Yuan’s ear.

Thinking a bit more, Xu Fugui’s image also appeared in his mind.

"Sigh."

Ji Yuan couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

He didn’t know if the sect had news of the Nascent Soul son, nor did he know when he would be able to help them get revenge.

The more he thought, the further he went, so Ji Yuan decided not to think about it anymore.

Thinking now would be useless.

Helping them get revenge would have to wait until he reached Core Formation, at the very least.

Then he slightly triggered the Earth Fire, causing the burning flames to start roasting the furnace.

Above the courtyard, the words he longed for appeared.

[Artifact Refining Room: lv0]

Ji Yuan moved with his Heart Thought again, summoning the panel.

[Artifact Refining Room: lv1 (Cannot Upgrade)]

[Spirit Effect 1: Magical Artifact success rate +20%, Spiritual Artifact success rate +5%.]

[Upgrade Conditions: Low-grade Spirit Stone×10, "Initial Understanding of Artifact Dao"×1, successfully refine one Low-grade Magical Artifact. (Not Achieved)]

Ji Yuan glanced over and immediately knew it was the same old trio.

This[Artifact Refining Room] had upgrade conditions and Spirit Effect not much different from the[Talisman Room] and[Alchemy Room].

As for the Low-grade Spirit Stones, Ji Yuan naturally had them, and he also possessed "Initial Understanding of Artifact Dao," which he had found in a Storage Bag after killing an unknown cultivator, thinking it might be useful, and kept it.

Regarding successfully refining one Low-grade Magical Artifact, he had done that on Hammer Island before.

For some reason, the panel didn’t recognize it, maybe he needed to refine it anew.

This wasn’t difficult; Ji Yuan was prepared to imitate a template, crafting himself an "iron box" that could serve as a[Array Room] while traveling.

Moreover, he had the experience to guarantee success in refining this Magical Artifact.

He opened the furnace, ignited the fire, and melted the iron essence.

The steps for refining a Magical Artifact were all recorded in detail in the thick book left by Isle Master Tie Chui.

Ji Yuan was merely following the instructions step by step.

And so, amidst the "bang bang clang clang" sound of forging iron, a day later, Ji Yuan looked at the palm-sized iron box in his hand, and his panel changed.

[Artifact Refining Room: lv1 (Upgradeable)]

Then Ji Yuan took out 10 Low-grade Spirit Stones and a copy of "Initial Understanding of Artifact Dao" from his Storage Bag, tossing them onto the ground.

Perhaps due to the ground being too hot, the book spontaneously combusted upon hitting the surface.

Ji Yuan hurriedly chose to upgrade.

If the book burned and prevented upgrading, he would have to make a trip to All Things Island, which would be too much trouble.

With a thought, the Spirit Stones and book on the ground all turned to ash and scattered.

The words above the furnace changed.

turned into 1.

The panel refreshed immediately.

[Artifact Refining Room: lv2 (Cannot Upgrade)]

[Spirit Effect: Magical Artifact success rate +40%, Spiritual Artifact success rate +20%, Magical Treasure success rate +5%, automatically learn "Celestial Thunder Seed."]

[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stone×20, Azure Dark Iron×4 pieces, Earth Spirit Mica Stone×2 lbs, successfully refine one Spiritual Artifact (Not Achieved)]

What?!

The Level 2[Artifact Refining Room] can learn the method to make Celestial Thunder Seed?

Before Ji Yuan could be surprised, the panel issued new text below.

The new text appearing outside of building upgrades was rare on the panel, but each time was extremely critical—for example, a critical hit occurred while picking thousand-year Illusion Spirit Grass, resulting in harvesting two stalks at once, which would be specifically noted by the panel.

But this time...

[Alchemy, Array, Talisman, Artifact four techniques unlocked, can choose building synthesis.]

[Do you want to synthesize "Alchemy Room," "Array Room," "Talisman Room," and "Artifact Refining Room"?]

The panel actually has a building synthesis function?!

It makes sense; the building effects of these four rooms are basically identical, combining them is surely not out of reach.

Besides, Ji Yuan had never seen building synthesis before, so naturally, he chose to agree.

"Synthesize!"

[lv2: Alchemy Room, Array Room, Talisman Room.]

[lv1: Artifact Refining Room]

[Different levels, cannot synthesize.]

Ji Yuan: "..."

I knew it wouldn’t be that simple, damn it, how can they synthesize when the building levels don’t match?

Unless after synthesizing, the[Artifact Refining Room] directly upgrades to Level 2?

Ji Yuan was a bit surprised but not too much.

It makes sense to need buildings of the same level for synthesis, no worries; with the buildings at hand, it’s just a matter of spending more time to eventually upgrade the[Artifact Refining Room].

No hurry for now.

Ji Yuan casually closed the panel and then chose to... continue hammering!

He also discovered while refining artifacts that forging iron not only refines artifacts but also revitalizes blood and Qi, enhancing his physique. Although the effect is slow, it’s better than nothing.

So for more than a month.

Beyond returning to Mist Island to bring Third Brother over, Ji Yuan went nowhere else, wholeheartedly hammering... cultivating alchemy on Wuyou Island.

The Foundation Establishment Pill wasn’t ready for refining yet, as each furnace opening could take a month, which was too troublesome.

The elixirs Ji Yuan refined this time were from formulas and materials he purchased over at Joy Palace.

He focused on two types of elixirs, one suitable for men called "Heaven-Supporting Pill," and another suitable for women called "Water-like Pill."

They only serve to enhance enjoyment, with no significant effects on cultivation, thus are Level 1 elixirs.
