Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 508 - 240: Synthesis [Alchemy Room, Array Room, Talisman Room, Artifact Refining Room]

Chapter 508: Chapter 240: Synthesis [Alchemy Room, Array Room, Talisman Room, Artifact Refining Room]

[Spirit Effect 2: Automatically acquires the four major spirit effects "Talisman Treasures in Groups," "Choose the Day for Foundation Establishment," "Purple Sky Divine Thunder," "Invert the Big Dipper."]

[Spirit Effect 3 (Heavenly Craft Creation): Pill Array Talisman four major techniques, once initiated, can be directly mastered.

Note: This Spirit Effect cannot be upgraded.]

[Upgrade Conditions: Cultivation reaches Golden Core Stage; Mid-grade Spirit Stones x5000; Icefire Lotus x1; Purple Sky Stone x1; Nine-Yao Stone x2; Gold-eating Rat King Whiskers x5; Tier Three Demon Pill x1. (Not fulfilled)]

This damn... it really is a bit much.

But as Ji Yuan read from top to bottom, he realized that both [Spirit Effect 1] and [Spirit Effect 2] were actually summaries from the previous four buildings, just that they were compiled together now.

The four entries under [Spirit Effect 2], whenever Ji Yuan focused on any of them, memories would flood into his mind, similar to before.

What truly added was [Spirit Effect 3], this "Heavenly Craft Creation."

Moreover, it was uniquely marked, stating that this Spirit Effect cannot be upgraded.

With a slight perception, Ji Yuan immediately understood how abnormal this [Spirit Effect] was.

Simply put, with this [Spirit Effect], one could skip the process of accumulating proficiency from then on.

In other words, for any within the Pill Array Talisman, once Ji Yuan learned it, this Spirit Effect would apply to him, enabling immediate mastery.

For instance, if he learned how to refine the top-grade Spiritual Artifact "Sky-Splitting Boat," normally after learning, he would have to slowly accumulate proficiency to increase his success rate.

But with this "Heavenly Craft Creation," things are far simpler. Once he learns the method of refining the "Sky-Splitting Boat," he can master it instantly!

The same applies to Alchemy, Talisman Painting, and Array Painting.

What kind of bizarre ability is this?

Normally, being able to accumulate proficiency is already considered a powerful talent, yet one spirit effect from a single building can actually skip the arduous process of gaining proficiency.

To this, Ji Yuan only had one thought, which was... to upgrade quickly!

Once this [Celestial Craft Square] is upgraded to Level 3.

The four great techniques can no longer hinder me.

Wandering the world, what would I fear?

But upon seeing the "Upgrade Conditions," Ji Yuan’s heart turned cold.

The 5000 pieces of Mid-grade Spirit Stones were acceptable, those were minor things.

Achieving Core Formation in cultivation is the real challenge, and those additional materials, be it one or two, are required in very small quantities, indirectly reflecting their rarity.

It’s truly difficult.

Take the "Gold-eating Rat King Whiskers" as an example.

A regular Gold-eating Rat is already an extremely rare Tier Three Demon Beast, and this Gold-eating Rat King is among the Tier Three Demon Beasts... and it requires its whiskers.

This is truly making things difficult for the honest folks!

As for the others, Ji Yuan hadn’t even heard of them.

The only obtainable item is to spend a fortune to buy one Tier Three Demon Pill.

Moreover, this item requires two pills for [Pigsty] upgrade.

It’s really quite troublesome.

After reading it, Ji Yuan had only a single feeling.

Farming is good, but farming is costly. Although the harvest in the later stages is high, the initial investment is also substantial.

After examining the newly synthesized building, Ji Yuan noticed that the surrounding caves no longer had texts such as [Alchemy Room] or [Talisman Room].

Instead, they all uniformly displayed [Celestial Craft Square: Level 2].

’It seems like the Celestial Craft Square building can simultaneously affect multiple buildings?’

Previously, each building could only affect one location at a time, for instance opening the [Cave Mansion] spirit effect on Wuyou Island meant the effect on Mist Island would close.

To reactivate the effect on Mist Island, the building on Wuyou Island would first need to be closed.

But the [Celestial Craft Square] was different; Ji Yuan glanced around and noticed that the nearby four caves all displayed "Celestial Craft Square."

Moreover, he tested it and found that it could continue being activated.

’This is rather good, it saves me a hassle.’

The synthesis was successful, but the brief joy in his heart was once again extinguished by the pressure of reality.

Ji Yuan rose and entered the [Meditation Room], reclined onto the ground; even though he was resting, he must utilize every moment to enhance his strength.

Meditation to nurture the Divine Soul is one of the methods.

The Demon Dao had begun its invasion, so there were no truly peaceful places left in the world.

Even Ji Yuan’s Mist Island faced similar circumstances, as demonstrated when the two Foundation Establishment cultivators from Water Dragon Sect discovered it... if it were in normal times, they wouldn’t have dared.

They recklessly stormed into islands protected by arrays near the sect.

A significant reason for such behavior is the Demon Dao invasion; they are also trying to strengthen themselves as much as possible.

’Given this... moving Mist Island must be expedited.’

This was already part of Ji Yuan’s plan.

Once the battle between righteousness and demons begins, danger increases in areas not covered by the Sect Protection Array.

Inside the sect, at least the Tier Four Array provides protection, and it’s close to Hua Yaoyue; should any problem arise, a message would bring her instantly.

So ultimately, those buildings must be moved to Wuyou Island gradually.

Including [Beehive], corpses buried under [Chaotic Burial Mound], and [Spirit Vein], among others.

Additionally, he must continue refining sword embryos; only by producing the remaining four can cultivation reach the perfect Foundation Establishment, or what laymen call Peak of Foundation Establishment.
