"Damn it, I can't practice it anymore. If I practice it again, I'll die."
In Yunzhong City, Lin Jiang put down the Huangtu Bazhen Jue and cursed. Three months ago, he got this technique from the manager of Duobao Pavilion. He naively thought that it was a technique tailor-made for him.
So as soon as he got home, Lin Jiang couldn't wait to study it and then started practicing. However, three months later, Lin Jiang decided to give up.
Huangtu Bazhen Jue is known as a short-lived technique. Lin Jiang thought that it would just waste his life span. In that case, he was not afraid. Now his life span is already 15,000, and he has plenty of money.
But after practicing, he found that it was not the case at all. Huangtu Bazhen Jue really consumes the body. The spiritual energy of this technique is extremely domineering, but the price is to overdraw the body. If he practices it deeply, his body will be tossed and scattered. Then he may become a living dead, with countless life spans, but his body is broken.
This was contrary to Lin Jiang's wishes. He did not practice for immortality, but for the means to protect himself, so Lin Jiang could only reluctantly give up this heaven-level technique.
"But it's not without gain. One of the secret techniques in the Huangtu Ba Zhen Jue is very suitable for my requirements."
Lin Jiang sighed again. Huangtu Ba Zhen Jue has several secret techniques, one of which is the Explosion Yuan Technique, which is very domineering.
This Explosion Yuan Technique uses life as fuel, which can instantly double one's attack power. Doubling consumes ten years of life. The highest attack power can be increased tenfold at a time, consuming a hundred years of life.
For other cultivators, this move is also a way to seek death. The life span of the Jindan stage is only 500 years, and most cultivators who practice to the Jindan stage are over 100 years old. They only have about 400 years to use. If they encounter a strong enemy, they will use up a hundred years of life, and it is estimated that they will not be able to reach the Nascent Soul in this life.
But Lin Jiang didn't care. With a life span of more than 10,000 years, it was nothing to use up a hundred of his life spans. He could also afford to use up a hundred or eighty times more. With his current Qi training level of the seventh level, if his attack power increased tenfold, I'm afraid no one would be his opponent within the Qi training period.
So Lin Jiang has decided to practice this explosive Yuan technique, which will be one of his trump cards in the future.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang"
In the early morning, Lin Jiang came to the big market. The beautiful young woman next to him saw Lin Jiang and greeted him enthusiastically. Perhaps because it was still early and there were not many customers, there were still a few men surrounding the beautiful young woman. When they saw Lin Jiang, they immediately showed hostile eyes.
"Well, hello, fellow Daoist Liu"
Lin Jiang politely greeted him, then took out a piece of cloth, spread it on the ground, and put the talismans for sale one by one.
Now the talismans sold by Lin Jiang have been replaced with first-grade upper-grade ones. The previous first-grade middle-grade talismans have been sold to a certain business at one time, recovering the cost of more than 3,000 spirit stones.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, your talisman skills have improved again. Today, you have two more talismans.
This is really a cause for celebration." The beautiful young woman ignored Lin Jiang's indifference and came up to him again. In the past few months, her attitude towards Lin Jiang suddenly became much warmer.
Because she found that Lin Jiang was one of the few rich and promising people in this big market. Lin Jiang was young, but his cultivation was not low, and he had a powerful talisman skill. A first-class talisman of superior quality could not be drawn by anyone in the Qi training period. Many people who have studied talismans for half a lifetime could not reach this level.
The value of a first-class talisman of superior quality was also skyrocketing. An ordinary first-class talisman of superior quality could be sold for ten spirit stones, and the material cost of the talisman was only one spirit stone. Even if the number of failures and scraps was counted, the income was not low. A few hundred spirit stones a month was definitely one of the best incomes in this big market.
"Not bad, I've made some progress."
Lin Jiang nodded. He was quite pleased with himself. He had a good talent in drawing talismans. He could draw nine kinds of first-grade talismans, and the success rate was not low. He could draw five or six out of ten talismans successfully.
According to the price of first-grade talismans, he could break even this year or next year. If the success rate was a little higher, he could make a small profit and accumulate wealth slowly.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, how many talismans can you draw every day now?"
"Why are you asking this?"
"Don't get me wrong, fellow Daoist Jiang. I'm just asking. If you draw fewer talismans, you can try the Soul Refining Technique. It's an excellent method to strengthen your spiritual consciousness. Even top sects like the Zhongxing Sect are using it. If you add some Soul Nourishing Pills, it will be amazing for us talisman painters."
Seeing Lin Jiang frowning, the beautiful young woman immediately explained that she knew this question was somewhat private, but she wanted to find a topic to discuss with Lin Jiang in depth. Although she was not very good at drawing talismans, she was quite familiar with the industry of talisman painters because there was a talisman painter in her family.
"I already know it, and I have also practiced the Soul Refining Technique,"
Lin Jiang replied. He didn't know these things before, but he knew them after coming to Yunzhong City. The Soul Refining Technique is a very clever secret technique that can increase spiritual consciousness, but because it is widely circulated, the price is not high. The
more expensive one is the Soul Nourishing Pill, which costs thirty spirit stones per piece and needs to be taken for a long time. The cost is very high, but Lin Jiang also gritted his teeth and bought it. If you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools. Drawing talismans is closely related to the strength of the soul, and this is also an investment for yourself.
"Then we can discuss the Soul Refining Technique. I have been practicing the Soul Refining Technique since I was a child and have gained a lot."
The beautiful young woman was immediately happy. She finally found a common topic. It was really rare.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, you should communicate with other Daoists. It's not convenient for me."
Lin Jiang glanced at the jealous men and shook his head. This woman was so attractive that he couldn't afford to offend her.
The beautiful young woman looked back and felt unhappy. These idiots, how could they be so tactless? Didn't they see that I don't want to deal with you anymore? Why are you still standing here?
"It's okay, Daoist Jiang, they are not talisman painters. I can't talk to them. I prefer talisman painters."
The beautiful young woman said to Lin Jiang, and deliberately lifted her hair, revealing a charming face.
"Painting talismans is life. In fact, I don't like talisman painting. Okay, let's start business. Daoist Liu, please go."
Lin Jiang's face became serious and he made a gesture of invitation, which meant he was going to drive people away.
The beautiful young woman was stunned when she heard it, and then she stomped her feet, walked back to her stall, and angrily drove away the licking dogs.
"It's really a stone, no, it's a stone in the pit, hum"
Soon, Lin Jiang heard the coquettish voice from the side of his ear, but he pretended not to hear it.
"Hehe, Brother Jiang, Sister Liu likes you so much."
One social bull was driven away, and another social bull came, Zhang Ruifeng came on stage.
"Don't talk nonsense, you little brat don't know shit about love" "
I'm not a little brat, I'm thirteen years old this year, if I were a mortal, I could get married next year"
Zhang Ruifeng raised his head, trying to make himself look stronger, thirteen years old is not very young, those relatives in his family who don't have spiritual roots, started to get married at the age of fourteen, this is a sign of adulthood.
"You'd better reach the first level of Qi training first, without cultivation, you can't speak tough"
Lin Jiang said with a smile, and poked Zhang Ruifeng's lungs as soon as he opened his mouth.
Yunzhong City also advocates starting to practice at the age of twelve. Even if the conditions are good, they will start at this age. It is said that practicing too early is not conducive to the future and will stimulate potential early.
So Zhang Ruifeng also tested his spiritual roots last year. The talent of five spiritual roots, like Lin Jiang, is the worst talent in the world of cultivation. So after practicing for more than a year, he didn't even reach the first level of Qi training.
Of course, Lin Jiang was embarrassed to laugh at others, because the original owner Lin Jiang also took more than two years to draw Qi into the body to reach the first level of Qi training, and then stopped at the first level of Qi training for many years, which was really shameful, otherwise how could it be called the shame of the Lin family.
Zhang Ruifeng was immediately angry when he heard Lin Jiang's words, his face was flushed, and he gasped for breath, but he couldn't refute it, because it was too wasteful not to draw Qi into the body for more than a year.
"Brother Jiang, I will surpass you sooner or later"
"Really? Then I'll wait for you"
"You wait"
"Well, wait, by the way, it costs a lot of money to practice, and you can't move forward without spirit stones, so in order to catch up with my cultivation, you should make more money instead of chatting with people everywhere. You are not an ordinary person, understand?"
Lin Jiang said, young man, I have made it clear enough, you have to practice well, don't be a chatterbox, I've had enough.
"But I did it to make money,"
Zhang Ruifeng said. Why did they dislike him for talking too much? His father disliked him for talking too much, so he sent him to Yunzhong City to set up a stall at a young age. Although he was a talkative person, he did make a lot of money.
