Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

After the Qinghua Divine Sect suffered a major defeat in Yuyang City, it is estimated that they will not organize a second round of attack in the short term.

Even if they seek revenge, they will not choose Yuyang City. Since the moment the battle ended, Old Master Chen had ordered the repair of the city's defenses. If the enemy were to come again, they would only defend and not attack, securing the advantage of the terrain.

Without the advantage of the terrain, the Qinghua Divine Sect's manpower and timing would not be as good either. Forcing an attack on Yuyang City would only result in injuring eight hundred enemies while suffering a thousand losses.

It might even be difficult to even injure eight hundred.

As Ji Boying calculated in his mind, he looked at the eight other icons in the Heart's Desire Store that he had not yet tried.

"Ah..."

"If I had already used up all my Heart's Desire Points, I definitely wouldn't be bothered by these icons anymore. But with a hundred points left unused, it makes me feel uncomfortable."

"Especially this useless and annoying eye icon!"

Saying that, Ji Boying's gaze swept back and forth over those icons.

Nine icons, eight untried;

Four pending, four unknown!

Ji Boying was cautious by nature. For the unknown icons, he only glanced at them briefly before withdrawing his gaze.

The unknown is the most terrifying because you never know what lies behind it.

In addition, the greater the unknown, the greater the hope; the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

The eyes were the best example.

At first, Ji Boying thought the eyes were some kind of pupil technique, but after it changed to a cross, overturning his understanding, he gradually believed that these eyes were related to dual cultivation.

A magazine worth a hundred points was already so terrifying.

This eye worth a thousand points, wouldn't it be even more amazing?

With this mindset, Ji Boying exchanged for the eyes.

As a result, this thing turned out to be just a version of spiritual perception. Although it had two functions that spiritual perception couldn't replace, in practical application, it was extremely useless.

Just like that...

After wandering back and forth among the four pending icons several times, Ji Boying finally fixed his gaze on the arrow.

Ji Boying tentatively speculated that this arrow was similar to the leveling system in the game.

However, the specific upgrade was unknown. If it was still related to dual cultivation, it was very likely to be an upgrade technique or an upgrade of a certain part of his own body.

And it was also time-limited; it couldn't be a permanent enhancement. If it was a permanent enhancement, the price would definitely not be only 100 Heart's Desire Points.

As for the other pending icons, although Ji Boying had some guesses in his mind, considering the gap between him and Li Yueyao, he chose to temporarily give up.

"No hope, no disappointment."

Ji Boying muttered to himself in a self-suggestive tone:

"The cross magazine might just be a coincidence. The eye worth a thousand points was like this, so how good can this arrow worth a hundred points be?"

Saying that, he directly chose to exchange for it.

In no time, a faint spiritual light flickered on the virtual interface, and then, the icon with the arrow appeared in front of him.

Without hesitation, Ji Boying chose to use it.

Once again, a burst of spiritual light flashed before his eyes.

Hmm, the expected feeling didn't appear.

Although he was mentally prepared, there was still some disappointment when the result was presented before his eyes.

However, just as Ji Boying was curious about what exactly the arrow icon represented, another virtual box appeared on the interface, with a slow-progressing progress bar in the center, gently flickering with a pulsating animation.

Looking at the speed, it was like downloading several gigabytes of divine power tutorial videos on a certain cloud storage without a premium membership.

The tissues were already prepared, and the pants were even taken off.

But the teacher didn't appear because there was no premium membership.

This feeling...

It's simply frustrating.

However, Ji Boying is no longer interested in these things.

After all, practice is the key to true knowledge, and theory is just theory. It's good to take a look, but not to believe everything.

As time passed, the progress bar showed no signs of moving.

Ji Boying was getting bored waiting, so he started studying Fu Jing next to him. He also had two in-depth discussions with Li Yueyao to see if his temporarily restored body had been affected, especially in terms of communication function.

The results proved that his temporarily repaired body not only fully recovered physically, but also had no obstacles in terms of functionality.

And so...

Almost a day had passed.

While Ji Boying was studying Fu Jing, the progress bar on the virtual frame was finally filled.

"What is this..."

Ji Boying looked at the virtual frame in front of him, his face gradually darkening.

The progress bar on the virtual frame had disappeared, replaced by an icon from the store.

Yes, it was that eerie eye!

However...

At this moment, there was a faint spiritual light emanating from around the eye icon. Upon closer inspection, it seemed slightly different from before, as if... more vivid?

Ji Boying took a deep breath, forcibly stabilizing his emotions, and began to analyze this strange eye that was somewhat different but hadn't changed much.

"If I'm not mistaken, the arrow does indeed have an upgrading effect."

"However, it's not for my dual cultivation ability or the vitality of a certain part of my body, but for the upgrading of the icon."

Ji Boying smiled bitterly.

There was both surprise and disappointment.

The surprise was that he had guessed the function of the arrow correctly, it really was for upgrading.

As for the disappointment... it was that the upgrade was not for Ji Boying himself or his dual cultivation skills, but for the icon.

It was still the useless eye icon.

Of course...

This was because Ji Boying only had the eye icon. If he had exchanged for something other than the eye, like a hammer or an illusionary figure, and if these two icons indeed had significant effects, then the result would naturally be different.

"Never mind, let's just upgrade the eye!"

"This function itself is not useless, it's actually quite useful, I just used it in the wrong place."

Ji Boying murmured, then closed the icon and activated the strange eye, wanting to see what changes there would be after the upgrade.

As a faint light emerged from his eyes...

Everything in his field of vision began to become transparent, making the things hidden in the cabinet clearly visible.

"Hmm... there does seem to be a slight change after the upgrade, it looks a bit clearer."

"However, this change in clarity is like upgrading from 1080P to 2K, it's indeed an upgrade, but not upgrading is also not a big deal."

"You really are still so useless even after the upgrade."

Ji Boying shook his head.

However, with mental preparation and some self-suggestion beforehand, Ji Boying didn't show too much disappointment this time.

"Master..."

However, just as Ji Boying was about to dispel the perspective function and continue studying Fu Jing, Li Yueyao suddenly walked over and whispered,

"Master, Qin Gezhu is here, right outside the door."

"Understood..."

Ji Boying was about to reply, but the words got stuck in his throat, as if he had swallowed a thorn...
