Ji Yuan had just realized this point and only then did he react.
He took the Spiritual Energy Cannon out from the Storage Bag and indeed found it useful.
After that, whatever Yun Wannian and Phoenix Peach were chatting about, Ji Yuan didn’t mind because he had already summoned the interface. With just one look, he noticed sothing was amiss.
Common buildings all start upgrading from Level 0, but this [Spiritual Energy Cannon] is different.
It starts at Level 1.
[Spiritual Energy Cannon: lv1]
[Spirit Effect: Accumulate montum and store energy, the cannon secures the mountains and rivers. Can at most kill an early-stage Golden Core cultivator.]
[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×200 pieces; Tier Two Artifact Refiner; Tier Two Array Master; Energy Crystals ×5 pieces; Silver Moon teorite Rock ×10 jin.]
Simple and brutal spirit effect.
It matched what Yun Wannian said.
So what about a Level 2 Spiritual Energy Cannon?
Ji Yuan looked downwards.
[Spiritual Energy Cannon: lv2 (not upgradeable)]
[Spirit Effect: Accumulate montum and store energy, the cannon secures the mountains and rivers. Can at most kill a peak Golden Core cultivator.]
[Upgrade Conditions: Mid-grade Spirit Stones ×2000 pieces; Tier Two Artifact Refiner; Tier Two Array Master; Energy Crystals ×5 pieces; Silver Moon teorite Rock ×50 jin; Tier Three Demon Pill ×1. (Not Achieved)]
A Level 2 [Spiritual Energy Cannon] can kill a peak Golden Core cultivator?!
Damn, is the effect this strong!
A flash of excitent crossed his mind, but Ji Yuan quickly cald down. A Level 1 [Spiritual Energy Cannon] can theoretically kill an early-stage Golden Core cultivator, but only if that cultivator stood still and allowed himself to be killed.
Compared to that, the Level 2 [Spiritual Energy Cannon] is probably similar. Although it’s marked as capable of killing a peak Golden Core cultivator, in practice, it might at best kill a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, or perhaps a mid-stage one... Still, damn is it ferocious!
Ji Yuan currently had many protective asures on him, making it unlikely for an ordinary Golden Core cultivator to kill him.
But he lacked offensive thods.
There was at least nothing that could threaten a Golden Core cultivator.
Now, the appearance of this [Spiritual Energy Cannon] filled that gap... Since the Level 2 Spiritual Energy Cannon is marked capable of killing a peak Golden Core cultivator, it must have so other special abilities, right?
Maybe it can lock onto the target, and no matter how the target escapes, as long as they’re within range, they must take the hit?
Of course, this was just Ji Yuan’s speculation; no matter what, he would need to upgrade to find out.
As he was thinking, he saw Yun Wannian turning to look at him.
He hurriedly returned a smile.
Phoenix Peach, seeing this, had no choice but to transmit a ssage to him, saying, "Uncle Yun wants you to take out the Spiritual Energy Cannon and give it to Second Senior Brother, so he can repair so array patterns on it and make it usable for a few more tis."
"I’ll trouble Second Senior Brother then."
Ji Yuan cupped his hands and took out the newly acquired [Spiritual Energy Cannon].
"It’s a small matter."
After Yun Qianzai took the Spiritual Energy Cannon, he stepped into a formation and left, clearly off to work.
After that, Yun Wannian took Ji Yuan and Phoenix Peach for a walk around Yun Family Castle, introducing them to the Yun family’s history and so on, and when it was ti for the banquet, it got even livelier.
The Yun family’s main house had dozens of people co, celebrating like a festival, singing and dancing to show welco.
This made Ji Yuan sowhat overwheld.
The next day, he planned with Phoenix Peach to go into the city. He originally intended to return directly to the sect without delay, but unexpectedly Yun Qianzai had accepted such a task, forcing him to stay until it was done.
Hearing they were planning to go into the city, Yun Wannian had Yun Qianzai’s little aunt accompany them.
Once in the city, no matter what Ji Yuan and the others took an interest in, she insisted on paying the bill.
Or she would simply say, put it on the Yun family’s account.
As a result, Ji Yuan and they couldn’t comfortably buy anything, so they only strolled around.
While walking, Ji Yuan suddenly saw a slightly familiar figure on the street ahead, standing in front of a shop, bargaining with the owner.
"Little Junior Brother, do you know him?"
Ji Yuan’s unusual reaction naturally caught Phoenix Peach’s attention.
"No, just felt he seed a bit familiar."
Ji Yuan shook his head and didn’t pay further attention.
He did indeed know the person; soone daring enough to dig up his own ancestral grave, nad Water Boiling.
Ji Yuan thought their parting that day would be their last eting, but he never expected to et him again here in Coastal City, and he noticed that Water Boiling’s head was no longer in that strange Water Family hairstyle but had grown long hair like the common folk.
He just didn’t know why soone from Lishui City would be in this distant Coastal City.
Ji Yuan decided not to follow up.
On the third day, Ji Yuan and Phoenix Peach went out to sea together, since this was the first ti he had seen the ocean of this world... not much different.
It wasn’t much different from Cloud Rain Marsh either; after all, both seed boundlessly vast.
Occasionally, they would see a sea beast co up for air.
The two of them spent the whole day like this, finally stopping at so rocks by sunset, watching the sun set beyond the sea.
Ji Yuan was srized by the beauty of the seaside sunset.
Beside him, Phoenix Peach whispered, "Little Junior Brother, I secretly thought if the demonic invasion cos and we are defeated, I would flee overseas and find an uninhabited island to hide."
"You definitely can’t tell anyone; this is my secret."
Phoenix Peach didn’t have the mindset to coexist with the sect in tis of crisis and definitely intended to keep it secret. Coincidentally, Ji Yuan didn’t plan to either and also had the thought of fleeing overseas.
Though he thought this, he said, "With the sect here, we can surely hold out; Senior Sister is worrying too much."
Phoenix Peach gave him a sidelong glance.
"With such a cowardly nature, you surely have preparations, don’t you? Hmph, I don’t believe you."
"No, I trust our Master."
Ji Yuan spoke truthfully this ti; Hua Yaoyue was his greatest assurance.
Phoenix Peach nodded vigorously but then seed to hesitate as if she had thought of sothing.
"What’s wrong? Senior Sister, if you have sothing to say, just say it."
Ji Yuan saw in the far distance under the setting sun, a massive whale breaking the surface of the sea, spraying water droplets all around.
"Actually, while chatting once, Master ntioned she plans to leave..."
"Leave?"
"Yes, she ntioned she can only protect us for a while, not for a lifeti. In the end, the path of cultivation is one we must walk ourselves."
"That’s true... Did she say where she was going?"
"No." Phoenix Peach slowly shook her head, swaying her high ponytail as she spoke, "However, I suspect Master might be going to another continent."
"Another continent? Can’t we go with her?"
Ji Yuan actually had that thought; if Hua Yaoyue decided to move to another continent, she would probably have reached at least the Nascent Soul stage. Rather than being a loose cultivator here, it would be better to follow a Nascent Soul elsewhere.
"I asked, but Master didn’t say. She might still be considering it. If she has decided, she will surely inform us in advance."
"Hmm."
Ji Yuan nodded, faintly guessing sothing... it seed Hua Yaoyue might also have co from another continent.
The two chatted for a while, watching as the sun set over the sea, engulfing both heaven and earth, and them, in darkness.
The next day, after Yun Qianzai had finished repairing the Spiritual Energy Cannon, the three of them returned to the Water Dragon Sect together.
Upon returning to Wuyou Island, Ji Yuan imdiately received a ssage from Dong Qian and Du Wanyi.
They both said that Han Feiyu... sothing big had happened.
