Longevity through Upgrading Buildings-Chapter 378 - 198: [Spirit Vein: Level 1 (Upgradeable)]

Chapter 378: Chapter 198: [Spirit Vein: Level 1 (Upgradeable)]
Cannot be detected by outsiders.
To silently kill two mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, that’s difficult.
Ji Yuan began to silently think about the methods he had on him, wondering what could kill two mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators without a sound.
Soon, Ji Yuan heard voices coming from the corridor outside.
"Brother Wu You, stop hiding. We’re not going to kill you, why not come out and have a chat?" Xuan Weizi’s voice came through.
"We killed Zhi Yun because of a personal grudge, it has nothing to do with you."
"How about we settle this privately? We’ll give you a sum of Spirit Stones, and you can pretend you didn’t see anything, how about it?"
"..."
Xuan Weizi, while walking, was also probing back and forth with his Divine Sense, but found nothing.
It was as if this Isle Master Wuyou had vanished into thin air; no matter how Xuan Weizi searched, there was no sign of him.
Damn it!
"He’s not coming out. I guess Zhi Yun really did tell him everything before she died."
Danxia transmitted her voice to Xuan Weizi.
"Hmm."
Xuan Weizi nodded nonchalantly, "Brother Wu You, did Zhi Yun tell you something before she died?"
"If you know, you should come out and have a chat with us. This is a big deal, a deal that can make you rich for life."
After Xuan Weizi said this, he walked a bit further, still thinking of speaking when suddenly he saw an extremely tall man appear in front of him out of thin air.
This man was wearing a tattered black robe, with a corpse cloth draped over it, looking unkempt as if he had been hiding underground for a long time.
And his aura... ghostly aura emanated from him, his cultivation level unclear, but just by looking, one felt a heavy pressure, as if he was not to be looked at directly.
This feeling, Xuan Weizi had never even experienced from his master!
But the question was, who was this person, and why was such a terrifying Demon Cultivator here underground?
Hadn’t the Golden Core Zhenren of the three Immortal Sects thoroughly investigated this Spirit Vein? How could there still be such a hidden person... In a daze, Xuan Weizi realized something.
If this person wasn’t discovered by the Golden Core Zhenren’s investigations, doesn’t that mean this Demon Cultivator’s cultivation is even higher than those Golden Core Zhenren?
"Shut your damned mouth!"
Ji Yuan looked at Xuan Weizi, who seemed startled into a daze, then... suddenly slapped him across the face.
With the physique of someone at the Foundation Establishment Stage, he put all his strength into the slap.
Xuan Weizi, so close, didn’t even have time to dodge.
"Pfft—"
He spat out a mouthful of teeth, his body spinning several times in the air before slamming heavily into the stone wall.
It was exactly the same as when he had beaten Zhi Yun earlier.
Danxia, already frightened, saw this "senior" casually slap, without even using Spiritual Qi, and it had such power. She was so scared she knelt down on the spot.
"Se-senior, this matter has nothing to do with me. I... I don’t dare to disturb your solitary cultivation."
"It was all Xuan Weizi forcing me to come, I really had no intention of coming here."
Husband and wife are like birds from the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly separately.
Let alone Danxia and Xuan Weizi weren’t even husband and wife, not Dao companions, just a fleeting romantic fling.
Ji Yuan gave her a cold glance, remaining silent.
After all, Ji Yuan himself hadn’t expected that the combination of the Transformation Talisman, Yin Ghost Sect Ring, and the corpse cloth could produce such a miraculous effect.
But upon thinking about it, if he encountered this scene, he would also be afraid.
Walking in a place one considers extremely safe, suddenly encountering a Demon Dao predecessor giving off immense pressure, with unclear cultivation...
Ji Yuan thought his first reaction might be to use the wine cup Hua Yaoyue gave him to release the Escape Shuttle and flee.
If that still didn’t work, then... just like Danxia, beg for mercy.
There was no other way.
"Trash!"
Xuan Weizi climbed up from the ground, shouting viciously at Danxia, who had betrayed him, and then Spiritual Qi began fluctuating from him.
"Oh?"
Ji Yuan looked at Xuan Weizi with a half-smile.
Soon, black smoke spread from his body, "Come, I won’t make things difficult for you two. Pick one; only one of you can leave alive, decide who it is."
Danxia immediately looked at Xuan Weizi.
The latter propped himself up from the ground, glared fiercely, and growled, "Are you really that stupid, thinking he’d actually let us go?!"
"He’s just trying to have some fun with us."
"Looks like you’re quite smart." Ji Yuan’s black mist already covered most of the corridor, the Yin Ghost Array... could be formed with a thought.
"But unfortunately, I don’t like people who are too smart."
Ji Yuan was fully focused, but on the surface, he pretended to be indifferent, interlocking his fingers, making crackling sounds.
"Shut your damned mouth and die!!!"
Xuan Weizi roared, and suddenly, from his previously empty sleeve, a black mink the length of an arm sprang out, landing on Xuan Weizi’s shoulder and inhaling towards Ji Yuan.
In an instant, Ji Yuan felt his Divine Soul being somewhat attracted, seemingly about to be drawn out, but the Soul Suppressing Bell vibrated slightly.
Accompanied by a golden light shimmering.
The Divine Soul remained unmoved.
"That’s it?" Ji Yuan chuckled, "Using a trash technique like soul devouring, and you have the nerve to take it out?"
"Wha... what..."
Xuan Weizi felt like the sky was falling; the technique he thought could snatch a survival opportunity was effortlessly neutralized?
