Another year has passed. During this year, Lin Jiang has participated in four exchanges. He is no longer the rookie he was when he first participated. He has gradually gained some fame among the customers of Duobao Pavilion.
Many people have made friends with Lin Jiang and want to cooperate with him on some things, such as participating in some tasks, going to some places to hunt for treasures, etc. Lin Jiang refused all these things.
He only exchanged things he needed at the exchange, such as some spiritual medicines and some experience in drawing talismans. This also made Lin Jiang's talisman drawing level advance by leaps and bounds. A month ago, he had successfully drawn the first first-class spiritual talisman.
Lin Jiang knew that he knew very little about the world of cultivation, so this year Lin Jiang strengthened his understanding of the world of cultivation and specially collected a lot of information.
After reading the whole article, Lin Jiang saw the word class. Everything in the world of cultivation has a class. Cultivators have different spiritual roots, and the skills are divided into heaven and earth. The elixir, talisman, and array are also divided into different grades.
These distinctions are ultimately meant to distinguish people. It is extremely difficult for low-level cultivators to advance. For example, if you want to reach a certain level, you must first have spiritual roots, preferably very good ones, otherwise you have to make up for it in other ways, such as a high-level technique or a large amount of spiritual medicine. For most low
-level cultivators, they don't have any of these, including spiritual roots, because once they have excellent spiritual roots, they are no longer low-level, and will be accepted by major families and sects, and they will jump to a higher level in an instant.
So based on these data, Lin Jiang readjusted his plan. The first thing he did was to find a powerful technique. The technique Lin Jiang practiced was called Xuanzhao Jue. According to the grade, it should be a yellow-level upper grade. If it is based on small forces or casual cultivators, it should be very good. Most of the cultivators in Yunzhong City have techniques that are yellow-level middle and lower grades.
But Lin Jiang was still very dissatisfied. The so-called Dharma, wealth, companions and land, Dharma is the most important resource for cultivation. A top-level technique can not only make cultivators cultivate faster, but also have a higher upper limit. The Xuanzhao Jue that Lin Jiang is practicing now can only reach the Jindan stage, while it is circulated in the market that any heaven-level technique can be cultivated to the Shenhua stage or above.
········
"Fellow Daoist Jiang wants a high-level technique. I don't know what level he wants. Do you have any special requirements?"
The manager of Duobao Pavilion, who was familiar with Lin Jiang, subconsciously asked back when he learned about Lin Jiang's purpose.
"Try to get one without any restrictions on spiritual roots. I have five spiritual roots. As for the grade, is there any heavenly grade one?"
"There are many techniques without any restrictions on spiritual roots, but when it comes to heavenly grade techniques, you are joking, Brother Jiang. An ownerless heavenly grade technique is enough to attract a fight among any major sect, and can cause a bloody storm in the world of immortal cultivation. Even if we take a step back and say that there really is a heavenly grade technique being traded, it cannot be bought with spirit stones, it must be barter, and at a sky-high price."
The manager shook his head. He did not laugh at Lin Jiang for this, because there were too many immortal cultivators like this, thinking that heavenly grade techniques were easy to come by. Even the Yunjian Sect behind him only had one heavenly grade technique, which could not be practiced by anyone other than the inner sect's true disciples.
"Then where can one have the opportunity to obtain heaven-level techniques?"
"Join a large sect. As far as I know, in Yunzhou, only the Zhonghang Sect, the Yunjian Sect and another giant, the Wuxing Sect, have heaven-level techniques. Almost anyone can join a sect, enter the inner sect, worship a sect elder as a teacher, and obtain the title of a true disciple, then they can learn heaven-level techniques."
"Is that so?"
Lin Jiang was a little desperate. This path was not feasible. He was no longer qualified to join a large sect and obtain the title of a true disciple. The first spiritual root screened him out. Without the qualifications of a heavenly spiritual root, forget it.
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Jiang, do you have any other needs?"
"Can you give me a list of heaven-level techniques? I'll try my best. People still have to have dreams, don't they? Without dreams, what's the difference between you and a salted fish?"
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Jiang is right. If Fellow Daoist Jiang is obsessed with heaven-level techniques, why don't I give you one?"
"Uh, are you kidding me?"
"No, don't misunderstand me, Brother Jiang, I'm serious. I wonder if Brother Jiang has ever heard of the Imperial Map Hegemony Secret?"
"No"
"Then I will tell Fellow Daoist Jiang about this. This Huangtu Bazhen Jue has been passed down since ancient times. It is said that it was created by a cultivator named Huangtu.
Huangtu was originally a descendant of a family. His family was destroyed by the enemy, and he was the only one who escaped. After that, revenge became his obsession. However, Huangtu himself was not talented and his cultivation was slow, so under tremendous pressure, he fell into the evil way and came into contact with a large number of evil techniques.
Most of the characteristics of evil techniques are fast improvement in cultivation, small obstacles, and few resources required, but at the same time, the side effects are also great. Almost all of them have great advantages and great disadvantages.
After Huangtu came into contact with the evil techniques, he still disliked that these techniques were not powerful enough for him to maintain, so he finally combined many evil techniques to create this Huangtu Bazhen Jue.
This Huangtu Bazhen Jue almost combines the advantages of all evil techniques. It has all the benefits you can imagine, but it has a fatal disadvantage. , that is short-lived.
We all know that the foundation-building stage can live for about 200 years, the golden elixir stage for 500 years, the primordial infant stage for 1,000 years, and the spirit transformation stage for 2,000 years. However, this Huangtu, after creating and practicing this technique and taking revenge, only lived for less than 50 years. At that time, he was in the spirit transformation stage. According to the speculation of the world, he may have lived for less than 400 years.
After that, many people also learned this Huangtu Bazhen Jue. Each practitioner was extremely short-lived, less than one-third of the life span, so Huangtu Bazhen Jue is also called a short-lived technique. When I was young, I wanted to find a heavenly-level technique like fellow Daoist Jiang, so I found a way to get this Huangtu Bazhen Jue. But I didn't dare to practice it after practicing it for less than a month. "
The steward said slowly that no one had practiced this Huangtu Bazhen Jue for many years. The major sects even listed this technique as a forbidden technique. Even the sect's library was not allowed to include it, because they were afraid that some disciples would covet the fast practice speed of this technique and ignore its dangers.
Lin Jiang on the side was stunned. He exclaimed in his heart: Shit, isn't this a martial art tailor-made for me?
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, Fellow Daoist Jiang..."
"Ahem, sorry for being distracted. How about this technique..."
"If you want it, I'll give it to you. But please think twice. This technique is really evil. Many predecessors have wanted to overcome the drawbacks of this technique, but all have failed. Those who practiced this technique all died young.
We practice immortality to achieve immortality, not to seek death. Unless there is some irreconcilable hatred and you want to die together with the enemy, it is best not to practice it."
"I understand. I'll show it to you. I'm still so young and I don't have any enemies. I won't be so depressed."
"That's good. If you are talented, maybe you can learn something useful from it."
"I wonder how much this technique is?"
"I said it's a gift to you. You have taken care of me a lot in the past few years. I don't want any money,"
said the manager. The things Lin Jiang spent on him exceeded ten thousand spirit stones, which increased his sales a lot. He also wanted to maintain this customer, otherwise he would not have told Lin Jiang this.
"Thank you very much, fellow Daoist."
"This is the technique. Let me tell you again, don't practice it casually and don't rely on luck. If you practice it, stop as soon as possible. It will only hurt your lifespan a little. By the time the technique is perfected, it will be too late."
"Understood. Thank you very much, fellow Daoist. I'll leave first if nothing else."
Lin Jiang pretended to pick up the technique casually, but he could no longer contain his excitement. He was so lucky that he could encounter such a technique. He couldn't wait to go back and practice it.
