Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Hua Yaoyue followed the technique's description and began to exhibit one or two more techniques.

Ji Yuan had a feeling of going deep while just skimming the surface.

He even felt as though this knowledge was flooding into his mind uncontrollably. The parts he previously couldn't comprehend became suddenly clear, and in less than half an hour, he had already performed the first level of the Water Dragon Technique, "Treading the Sea," on Wan You Island.

As soon as the water-based Qiu Dragon was summoned, it was immediately dispersed by Hua Yaoyue with a wave of her hand.

"Alright, if you want to practice, go back to your island to practice."

Hua Yaoyue said this as if remembering something and turned to Ji Yuan with a little curiosity, "You've established an island at the Foundation Establishment Stage, what name have you chosen for it?"

"This..."

Ji Yuan had been pondering this question for some time.

He thought of many names but was not satisfied with any of them.

After all, this concerned his future title... it couldn't be too vulgar, nor too ostentatious.

At this moment, with Hua Yaoyue posing the question, Ji Yuan suddenly gained inspiration and said humbly, "Reporting to Master, my disciple's island is named 'Wuyou' (Carefree).

"Wuyou?"

Upon hearing the name, Hua Yaoyue appeared somewhat dazed and lost in thought.

"Forget Wuyou, truly not as good as Wuyou, you chose well, in that case, you shall be called Isle Master Wuyou from now on."

"Yes."

Ji Yuan bowed again, "Disciple takes his leave."

Having bid farewell to Hua Yaoyue, Ji Yuan headed southward all the way.

Passing by his own island again, this counted as circling his home. Thinking today he finally named his island, Ji Yuan descended from the clouds and landed on Wuyou Island.

On Wuyou Island, he used the arrays set up by Yun Qianzai, consisting of two arrays, one Illusion Array and one Defense Array, both Tier Two arrays.

The Illusion Array was called "Mirror Maze," which Ji Yuan ventured through when the array was first laid out.

Once activated, it was layers upon layers of mirrors inside; everywhere to look was a path, and every path taken still led back to the original place.

Upon entering this array, aside from an Array Master who can break it, the only way out was to forcefully dismantle it.

By using techniques and forcibly replacing the spirit stones behind the array, one could leave.

At this critical moment, the second set of arrays on Ji Yuan's Wuyou Island could take effect.

This Tier Two Protection Array and the Mirror Maze were part of a larger system called the "Golden Pattern Protection Array," which essentially bolstered the Mirror Maze.

Whereas the mirrors might have been broken with tenfold strength, now it would take twentyfold strength to shatter them and break the array.

Staying inside these two arrays was like having a turtle shell shielding you, extremely safe, well... except the arrays were set up by someone else, which made Ji Yuan somewhat uneasy.

He planned to see if he could slightly adjust these two arrays once his skills advanced.

For now... upon landing on Wuyou Island, Ji Yuan activated the Star Dust Illusionary Killing Array.

As for the Star Spiral Cloud Barrier, Mist Island was using it; it couldn't be activated in two places simultaneously, thus the activation here meant Mist Island had to deactivate it.

The island wasn't much different from how he left it earlier.

The only difference was that many areas had become overgrown with weeds since Feng Zhi Tao sowed numerous seeds of plants and trees on Ji Yuan's island.

Now quite a few had already sprouted.

Ji Yuan wandered around and found that the vast majority of trees were fruit trees.

On a sunlit hillside, there were young peach trees waiting to grow into a peach orchard in two years.

"Seeing it like this, calling myself the Peach Blossom Island Master doesn't sound so bad either."

Ji Yuan rode on a flying boat and scattered dozens of pounds of spirit stone powder, formed by the refined spirit stones he absorbed over the years.

This stuff had no other use but was suitable for cultivating ordinary trees.

Ji Yuan did have better Spiritual Soil but was reluctant to use it for ordinary peach trees.

After touring the entire Wuyou Island, Ji Yuan rode his flying boat and left again. With all his belongings now on Mist Island, he naturally treated it as his true home.

His figure turned into a stream of light and departed.

In the western island named Yunyang Island, the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Isle Master of Cloud Sun and the Isle Master of Cold River were sitting opposite each other.

In addition, there was a Late-stage Foundation Establishment Female Cultivator, the owner of the island east of Ji Yuan's Wuyou Island, named Isle Master Youlan.

"Brother Yunyang, are you sure you've thoroughly investigated Ji Yuan's background?"

The Isle Master of Cold River stroked his beard and asked.

The Isle Master of Youlan looked like a woman in her forties or fifties, dressed in a deep blue magic robe, with wrinkles densely lining the corners of her eyes.

"In any case, I didn't find out. I asked quite a few familiar Qi Cultivation Stage disciples, and none had heard of a Qi Cultivation Stage Ji Yuan in the sect."

"But for a cultivator able to achieve Foundation Establishment at such an age, they shouldn't possibly be ordinary."

"He can't have a Celestial Spirit Root, if he had an Earth Spirit Root... he would have been taken as a disciple by some Foundation Establishment Stage brothers long ago. In any case, this person's emergence is a bit peculiar."

After expressing her thoughts, Isle Master Youlan also turned to look at Isle Master Yunyang.

The latter chuckled and said, "Let me be direct."

"I have a friend who was on duty at Si Fang Island the other day, and a certain incident happened there."

"Oh?"

The Isle Master of Cold River raised his eyebrows, "Brother Yunyang, are you referring to the incident the other day when both the Sect Leader Martial Uncle and another Martial Uncle appeared on Si Fang Island?"

"It can only be so."

Isle Master Youlan nodded and said, "This matter was clearly hushed up by the Sect Leader Martial Uncle; otherwise, it wouldn't have passed so quietly."

The Isle Master of Yunyang nodded, "If you knew who the other Golden Core Martial Uncle that appeared was, you wouldn't be so confused."
