Longevity through Upgrading Buildings - Chapter 775 - 325: "Qiu Qianhai, Have You Figured Out How You Want to Die!
“Oh, quite the bold words for someone so young.”
“Still thinking of making your Poisonous Jiao grandpa a backdrop, huh?”
The Poisonous Jiao Master looked at the young man in front of him, clad in black dragon armor, blocking his fatal strike, with a trace of anger flashing across his face.
“Go!”
Ji Yuan shouted in a low voice and flicked his right hand forward. The Fire Willow Flying Saber appeared out of thin air, carrying an ice-blue tail flame as it shot towards the nearby Poisonous Jiao Master.
A dark green protective aura naturally sparked from the latter’s body.
As it blocked the flying saber, sparks flew all around them.
This protective aura of his seemed almost tangible!
But in just a moment, Embrace Flame vanished on the spot.
With him gone, Ji Yuan felt much more at ease, at least not having to worry about accidental harm anymore.
So he performed a hand sign with one hand, dispersing into black mist!
As his form dispersed, he instantly condensed again in the distance, and as soon as he reappeared, he was holding a golden mirror with both hands.
The mirror was facing directly at the Poisonous Jiao Master opposite him.
“Come, let’s see what you really are!”
Ji Yuan said, shouting sharply with his mouth, “Mirror of Monster Reflection!”
The Poisonous Jiao Master was startled with panic in his heart. While his protective aura appeared in front of him, he also summoned his Lifebound Magical Treasure, “Dragon Gourd,” to defend against the front.
But just when he thought some powerful technique was about to be unleashed, he realized… nothing happened.
He watched as the man flipped the treasure-class mirror back into his hand and casually threw out five stones?
“Boom—”
Several explosions resounded around him.
The attacks were strong, but under the strict defense of the Poisonous Jiao Master, they caused no harm.
However, these five tribulation-like attacks kicked up a myriad of water splashes.
Before the splashes could fall, the Poisonous Jiao Master flew to a higher point.
But as he flew past the splashes, he discovered that the green-robed man opposite him… was gone!
Where did he go?
He instinctively released his Divine Sense.
But as soon as he released it, he looked down.
Because he found that the splashes that had just been kicked up dozens of feet high were now… gone.
They simply vanished into thin air.
Not only that, even the lake surface had become calm as if a storm never happened.
The Poisonous Jiao Master instinctively looked into the distance, but he didn’t see Granny Xuan Sha’s figure anywhere.
With this, he guessed.
Either he was caught in an illusion technique, or he had fallen into some array.
He concentrated his mind, recalled the Dragon Gourd, and held his right hand empty, cautiously watching his surroundings.
… This person is odd!
He looked around vigilantly, spreading his Divine Sense relentlessly.
But all his eyes saw and his Divine Sense probed was the calm lake surface, seemingly endless.
Unwilling to concede, he transformed into escape light and flew away. But after about half a cup of tea’s time, he still couldn’t find a trace of land.
He realized, this magic technique couldn’t be escaped from.
Here was only an endless sky and a bottomless dark lake.
Comparing the two, the Poisonous Jiao Master instinctively believed that the array-breaking method was hidden underwater.
He glanced down, and the greenish-black deep pond looked right back at him.
Instinctively, he felt a bit of dread.
But without knowing the array-breaking method, he had no choice but to use this clumsy method.
As he dove downward, just as he was about to fall into the lake, he suddenly noticed that there was a massive dark shadow hidden within the water.
Its size was immense, slithering beneath the lake surface.
A Snake Demon?!
Or…
Just as he was puzzled, he noticed the shadow becoming clearer.
That thing was surfacing.
Before he could release his Divine Sense again, there was a “splash” sound, and a ferocious jiao dragon head broke through the water surface, its lantern-sized dragon eyes staring straight at him.
“A Tier Three Demon Beast… Frost Serpent!”
The Poisonous Jiao Master felt some fear. The Frost Serpent before him was only at the early stage of Tier Three, but then, so was he at the early stage of Core Formation.
In a battle of equal realms, especially in such a water domain, facing a serpent-type demon beast…
The Poisonous Jiao Master felt that the time, place, and people favored everything but him.
So he lightly patted the Dragon Gourd in his hand, and a green light flew out, eventually landing on the lake surface.
The green light suddenly exploded, revealing another Poisonous Jiao of nearly the same size!
Likewise, it was at the early stage of Tier Three!
Monday’s eyes suddenly shifted away from the man onto the Poisonous Jiao on the lake surface.
The Poisonous Jiao Master’s face gleamed with pride. He surveyed the surroundings, “Fellow Daoist, I know you’re watching. Having a Frost Serpent is indeed rare, but who doesn’t have a spirit pet nowadays?”
“If you don’t make a move now, your spirit pet may not escape its fate.”
Outside the Inverted World Array.
Ji Yuan, initially disappointed, was suddenly overjoyed.
He initially thought this Poisonous Jiao Master was just a paper tiger, not expecting him to genuinely have a Tier Three Serpent as a Spirit Beast?!
In that case, things were looking up.
It seemed the [Fish Pond] upgrade opportunity had to come from this Poisonous Jiao Master.
So, watching the proud Core Formation Cultivator in front of him, he lightly tapped the Spirit Beast Bag at his waist, releasing another water-blue glow into the array.
The Poisonous Jiao Master instantly sensed something amiss.
He abruptly looked up and saw the sky seem to tear open with a rift.
Just when he thought he could escape from it, he was prepared to soar into the sky.
Yet, coming through that sky rift was another enormous Frost Serpent.
Jiao dragon!
Another Jiao dragon!
Another Tier Three Frost Serpent!
“This…”
Faced with this, the Poisonous Jiao Master already showed signs of fright on his face.
He halted his advance, even retreating voluntarily back to the lake surface, landing beside his Poisonous Jiao.
