Chapter 101 Selecting Cultivation Methods and Secret Techniques
Zhong Cai thought to herself, "This is practically a bone fracture!"
Wu Shaogan, who knew Zhong Cai well, smiled and said when he saw his expression, "Since it's so cheap, you can buy a few more."
Zhong Cai chuckled: "I wish I could go bankrupt buying Wandian Tower!"
Wu Shaogan chuckled: "That might be a bit difficult."
Zhong Cai deliberately let out a soft hum.
The two quickly continued walking forward.
Before long, they stopped together in front of a three-story bookshelf.
These are all movement techniques without any special attributes.
·
Wu Shaogan said, "I'll start from the left."
Zhong Cai spoke almost simultaneously: "I'll go to the right."
After they finished speaking, they couldn't help but smile at each other.
They have a great understanding.
Then they said together, "Let's write down the ones we've chosen, and look at them together later."
Zhong Cai laughed.
Wu Shaogan raised his hand solemnly, as if extremely respectful: "A-Cai, please go first."
Zhong Cai rolled her eyes: "If you keep pretending, I'll beat you up."
Wu Shaogan suppressed a laugh.
After the joke, the two of them didn't linger and each faced the bookshelf, flipping through the ones closest to them.
·
Zhong Cai picked up a jade tablet and poured his profound energy into it.
In an instant, a brief introduction appeared before his eyes.
"Ascending to the Clouds," the first part, perfectly matches the Palace-Opening Realm.
Cultivators of any attribute can learn it. After learning it, their movement techniques will be as ethereal as ascending to the clouds.
It can be used very quickly.
However, it is merely a sixth-order movement technique.
While it's not entirely impossible to learn, since it's not a primary cultivation method, you can simply switch to another one if it becomes insufficient.
However, cultivators always want to learn the most suitable and high-grade technique directly, so that they don't have to change it frequently and can concentrate on studying this movement technique, saving more time to adapt.
Zhong Cai thought about it and decided not to.
After all, this was something that seemed rather elusive to use, and he immediately felt it didn't fit.
Zhong Cai tossed the jade tablet back into its original place, then casually picked up the rather worn-out book next to it and opened it.
The first few pages of this book are also an introduction.
"Dragon Steps" is a complete fifth-order movement technique.
It is of a lower rank than "Ascending to the Clouds," and the mysteries revealed in the first few pages seem to be slightly inferior.
Naturally, that's not an option either.
Zhong Cai is currently selecting the second shelf, and then he will look up and down.
Anyone who gets their hands on it can at least cultivate to the Suspended Illumination Realm; the rest are only at the fifth or sixth level.
Zhong Cai didn't find any of them appealing, but he didn't mind the trouble and just kept looking.
·
And so, Zhong Cai searched high and low, and finally, after walking a few dozen steps, she found a door that she liked.
"The Step Without a Trace".
As the name suggests, once it's unleashed, it's the kind that leaves no trace.
The quality is also quite high. The ones placed in the tower are already capable of cultivating to the Spirit Transformation Realm, and the later parts are not incomplete. However, one must reach a certain standard before applying to the academy.
and……
Zhong Cai's expression was somewhat subtle.
What his father inherited was the "Shadowless Step".
The two movement techniques sound like a pair.
Zhong Cai thought of that Shadowless Step and found it a little funny.
Old Wu was indeed very fast when he used his movement technique, but that was hardly the Shadowless Step.
Because it's so fast that it leaves afterimages everywhere, it's more like the "Thousand Shadow Step"!
·
Zhong Cai made a note of it for now, and then continued watching the others.
After about an hour, Zhong Cai had read through all the books in this direction.
Overall, "The Step Without a Trace" is still the one that suits his taste the best.
At this moment, Zhong Cai turned around.
His father, Mr. Wu, was already standing at the other end of the bookshelf.
He was facing her from afar.
Zhong Cai waved to Wu Shaogan, but did not call out to anyone in order to avoid disturbing others.
Wu Shaogan had just put down a book when he strode over to Zhong Cai.
Zhong Cai asked with a smile, "Old Wu, how is it?"
Wu Shaogan shook his head slightly: "Although there are two or three books that are acceptable, after a little evaluation, I still think they are lacking."
Zhong Cai's eyes sparkled as she pulled Wu Shaogan to the middle of the bookshelf and handed him the movement technique she had chosen.
"Come on, take a look at this."
Wu Shaogan took it, and after reading only a few lines, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Indeed, this is a good movement technique."
Zhong Cai said, "After looking at it from all angles, I think this complete version is the highest grade, and it's clearly destined for me!"
Wu Shaogan nodded and said, "If A-Cai likes it, she can try it first." He then asked, "Should we buy it ourselves first, or use the spot Master Sang gave you to go to the fourth floor and directly exchange it for the first and second parts?"
Zhong Cai thought for a moment: "Can you give me some advice?"
Wu Shaogan said, "If you've decided to use it, it's more convenient to switch directly. But if you still have doubts, buy it first, try it out, and then consider it further."
Zhong Cai hesitated for a moment: "Let's buy the first part first. We need to use the quota that Master Sang gave us wisely."
Wu Shaogan understood: "After choosing your movement technique, would you like to select a secondary cultivation method?"
Zhong Cai said frankly, "I have the main cultivation technique, but it will take too much time for me to catch up with your level. I can't join forces with you for the time being, nor can I increase our attack power by three to five times."
·
After practicing the "Jade Inlay Dual Cultivation Method," Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan transformed their profound energy according to this method.
Besides merging the two people's companion treasures into an ancient city and making the city's defense ten times stronger, the combined attack launched by the technique when their cultivation levels are aligned will also increase in power exponentially.
As for how many times it will increase?
The power is increased by a minimum of three times and a maximum of ten times, depending on the compatibility of the secret techniques they use, their level of trust in each other, their level of tacit understanding, and other factors.
—When they obtained the first part in the cave in their early years, the deceased lovers had three to five times the effect.
If they are lucky enough, when Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan launch a combined attack, they can face an enemy who is a whole realm higher than them.
It may not necessarily kill the other party, but it's definitely enough to protect oneself.
·
At the same time, Wu Shaogan also studied the inheritance that came with the Sun-Shooting Bow.
The inheritance includes the "Sun and Moon Startling String Technique", multiple secret techniques, "Shadowless Step" and other inheritances.
The "Sun and Moon Startling String Technique" is the most suitable technique to match with bows and arrows.
It was later that Wu Shaogan modified the cultivation method from primary to secondary practice, and it did not conflict with the dual cultivation method.
After retraining, Wu Shaogan's profound energy once again carried the essence of the Sun and Moon's Startling Strings, merging with the profound energy condensed from the Jade Inlay Technique.
The "sun and moon" actually refer to Yin and Yang, so what Wu Shaogan cultivates is not a non-attribute cultivation method, but a Yin-Yang attribute method.
Therefore, Wu Shaogan can convert the Yin and Yang of Xuan power at any time.
All the secret techniques are actually related to archery, but some are bright and violent, while others are sinister and eerie, each matching one of the two attributes of mystic power.
—The secret technique that Wu Shaogan used for blood sacrifice on the battle stage is of the Yin attribute.
Although the Sun-Shooting Bow is named "Sun-Shooting," the most powerful archery technique it matches is indeed the extremely violent "Sun-Shooting Arrow." However, there is also the "Moon-Grabbing Arrow," which has almost the same ability, but with opposite attributes and is also quite domineering.
·
Zhong Cai is an alchemist who mainly focuses on alchemy, but that doesn't mean he has to give up his combat abilities.
After mastering the Jade Inlay Technique, he no longer cultivated any secondary techniques, and his body was filled with attribute-less profound energy.
Being neutral and unaffected by attributes also means having relatively mediocre attack power and no "special skills".
If you want to unleash greater power, and you can't catch up with Wu Shaogan's level in the short term, it would be more appropriate to cultivate a secondary skill.
In this way, even though Zhong Cai cannot join forces with Wu Shaogan, it is better for him to attack on his own with greater power.
Of course, choosing the right movement technique is the first priority.
If one's own cultivation level is not high enough, the most important thing is to have a means of survival.
If Zhong Cai is fast enough, he can escape even faster.
At the same time, when fighting with others, the faster you strike, the more likely you are to defeat your opponent.
Now that Zhong Cai has successfully found a movement technique, she can start thinking about supplementary training.
When it came time to choose a supplementary cultivation method, Zhong Cai had to consider which direction to choose.
Even though many cultivation methods can be switched between each other, as long as the main cultivation method is fine, it is relatively easy to switch to a secondary cultivation method. However, if you choose the wrong one, it can be very troublesome.
Moreover, unsuitable cultivation methods can affect the direction of physical enhancement, and when starting over, one will suffer greatly.
·
Zhong Cai pondered, "Old Wu, from the Sun-Shooting Bow to that thing, you've always had Yin and Yang attributes that you couldn't immediately see being interchangeable. After cultivating with you, it seems I should also move towards the balance and interchangeability of the Five Elements. Our Yin and Yang and Five Elements are the most complementary."
Wu Shaogan agreed, saying, "A-Cai is intelligent."
Zhong Cai cleared her throat.
In fact, it has nothing to do with intelligence.
Mainly, I read quite a lot of novels in my past life, many of which mentioned Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, so I just followed along.
This thing would actually fit quite well into a fantasy world.
According to his thinking, finding a cultivation method with balanced five elements now would at least prevent him from making mistakes, and it would be convenient to switch to a more suitable cultivation method in the future.
·
Upon seeing Zhong Cai's expression, Wu Shaogan thought for a moment, then suddenly understood and couldn't help but laugh.
He also said, "Let's look for it as A-Cai said."
Zhong Cai nodded, casually placed the five hundred gold coins into the groove on the bookshelf, and then scanned the pages of "The Unseen Steps" in it.
In the next instant, he had a sudden realization.
It seems like it has already succeeded?
Thinking this, Zhong Cai turned the page to the next page of "The Step Without a Trace".
Sure enough, this time we were able to get over it smoothly.
Zhong Cai felt a slight sense of relief and put the book away.
Interestingly, in the same spot on the bookshelf where the book originally stood, another copy of the same book appeared.
It is clearly a copy.
Zhong Cai thought about it and it wasn't surprising, after all, this was originally a disassembled movement technique, not the original one at all.
Now, it's just another copy.
·
Wu Shaogan took Zhong Cai's hand and they walked out of the room together.
The two had been exploring the area and had seen every room along the way, so they knew exactly which room they wanted to return to.
Wu Shaogan said, "If we can choose a martial arts technique, can we also choose a secret skill?"
Zhong Cai responded, "That's for sure."
·
In fact, Zhong Cai has always learned the most common meteor hammer routines, and many of his fighting styles were even learned from Wu Shaogan's sparring.
Its attack power is quite good, but it lacks structure and can hardly be considered a secret technique.
To further enhance the power of the meteor hammer, one would naturally need to choose another, or even several, techniques.
In order to make combat tactics more varied, which cultivator wouldn't want as many secret techniques as possible, as long as their profound power and comprehension allow it?
Wu Shaogan has already mastered several skills and is even trying to create his own.
Zhong Cai still hadn't considered creating his own; his talent simply wasn't in that area.
Therefore, Zhong Cai also felt that if possible, she should at least pick two or three doors to take with her.
·
Zhong Cai continued, "At least one."
The two have now passed through several rooms, and their destination is in sight.
Wu Shaogan pondered for a moment: "A-Cai, are you sure you'll be using the meteor hammer from now on?"
Zhong Cai said without hesitation, "That's it."
Wu Shaogan said no more.
·
The weapons a cultivator uses should be ones they like and are good at.
Many martial arts cultivators summon companion treasures that are already the most suitable weapons, so there is no need to hesitate too much - after all, the existence of companion treasures is to be compatible with the cultivator, and in most cases, the most suitable one will naturally be chosen directly, and the cultivator will definitely be very good at it.
However, if the accompanying treasure is something else, cultivators often have to spend a lot of time determining which weapon is the most suitable.
When Zhong Cai first chose his weapon, he had already consulted Wu Shaogan's opinion.
Wu Shaogan didn't mince words; he brought over one of every weapon available on the market, which Zhong Cai tried out one by one to experience the feel of them.
As a result, Zhong Cai became enamored with the meteor hammer.
According to him, the meteor hammer is a weapon that can be used for both ranged and melee combat.
The reason for its ranged attack is that the meteor hammer has chains on it. In the fantasy world, as long as the material of this thing is good enough, the chains can extend freely when the cultivator throws the hammer!
It stretches and grows longer and longer, and can be freely controlled when infused with enough profound energy.
Especially after the development of spiritual consciousness, the manipulation using spiritual consciousness becomes even smoother.
In addition, meteor hammers also come in single and double versions.
The number of hammers can vary, and the tactics can be very diverse.
When attacking from a distance, Zhong Cai throws a hammer at someone. Even if he doesn't pull it back with the chain, he still has another hammer to use.
In close combat, he chooses the big hammer. As long as he has enough strength and his Xuan power is sufficient, this thing can have a higher attack power. Especially if he chooses the meteor hammer with countless spikes, then once it hits the opponent, the opponent will die even faster.
·
In Zhong Cai's view, this meteor hammer is very similar to his old man Wu's Sun-Shooting Bow.
Just like Lao Wu is very good at close combat with a hard bow, Zhong is also very accurate when he uses a hammer to smash people!
Both types of combat involve both ranged and melee attacks.
When the two fight side by side in the future, and Lao Wu draws his bow and shoots arrows, he can hold the hammer and protect Lao Wu nearby.
And the moment he swung his meteor hammer, Lao Wu was able to protect him from all sides.
Once the two attacks combine, the rain of arrows that Lao Wu shoots out with his bow will probably not be a rain of arrows, but a barrage of meteor hammers!
Each meteor spike possesses the impact and sharpness of an arrow, along with its speed!
It sounds incredibly impressive!
·
Zhong Cai muttered, "I think, one single-hammer technique, one double-hammer technique, one meteor hammer technique with chains... and I'll add the others later. When we fight again, we'll definitely be able to make it even more fancy."
Wu Shaogan smiled and said, "Then I'll look forward to it."
Zhong Cai snorted: "We'll try a combined attack then."
Wu Shaogan understood: "We need to work things out as soon as possible."
Zhong Cai smiled: "That's exactly the point."
·
This combined attack was, of course, Wu Shaogan suppressing his strength to the Palace Opening Realm and then combining his secret technique with the secret technique that Zhong Cai had learned.
Since both of them use secret techniques that can be used for a considerable period of time, and since they won't be changing them for the time being, coordinating them sooner is also to prepare for a formal combined attack in the future.
When facing external enemies, they usually fight their own battles.
After all, the combined attack of the Palace-Breaking Technique is at least ten times stronger, only enough to barely fight against the Enlightened Technique.
It would be more worthwhile for Wu Shaogan to kill the enlightened cultivator himself.
·
The two walked to the left and entered that room.
Here, the bookshelves on all four walls are very large, divided into upper and lower levels.
Zhong Cai pulled Wu Shaogan along and started looking from the first shelf.
This time, the two didn't separate.
Since the entire room was filled with cultivation techniques related to the five elements, it would be best for the two of them to look at them and discuss them at the same time.
Zhong Cai whispered, "Take a close look. It shouldn't conflict with your cultivation method at all. It would be even better if it could provide additional benefits."
Wu Shaogan nodded slightly.
·
Zhong Cai picked up a book, and Wu Shaogan leaned in beside her.
The two of them looked it up together.
The Three Sheep Heart Sutra, Part 1, complete five stages of the exercise.
Zhong Cai couldn't help but chuckle: "Three sheep, three sheep, actually refers to cultivation techniques based on the three elements of metal, wood, and earth?"
Wu Shao chuckled dryly, "It possesses three attributes, making it very complex and full of mysteries to unleash."
Zhong Cai snorted, "Of course I know that, but that doesn't stop me from finding the name funny."
Wu Shaogan: "That's true."
Since the three attributes are unsuitable, there's no need for the two of them to look any further.
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan quickly finished reading all the martial arts techniques in front of the wooden frame.
They all have three attributes, but the specific three attributes and their arrangement are different.
The two walked around the wooden frame to look at the one next to it.
After finding that several books in a row had all three attributes, they wisely gave up and continued searching for the next shelf.
The result is two attributes.
The two then looked at several wooden frames for dual-attribute cultivation techniques, and even saw a wooden frame for four-attribute techniques...
Finally, they found the complete set of five elements cultivation techniques in a wooden shelf in a corner.
The quantity is really quite small.
All in all, it only occupies the upper part of this wooden frame.
Zhong Cai let out a breath, feeling somewhat relieved.
Wu Shaogan understood his thoughts and said, "The Azure Dragon Academy has already accumulated quite a bit of resources by finding more than twenty books. However, there are limits to human resources. If we can't find suitable ones here, A-Cai, we can put it aside for now."
Zhong Cai said, "I understand. We have other channels to try, and after a while, when our strength improves further, we can also go out and explore. The world is vast, and there are many opportunities."
Wu Shao chuckled dryly, "A-Cai is right."
Neither of them felt heavy-hearted.
Zhong Cai smiled and picked up the jade tablet at the very edge, saying, "Come on, look at this!"
Wu Shaogan stood beside Zhong Cai, and together they immersed their thoughts into the practice.
The Five Elements and Five Stars Classic.
As the name suggests, the five elements correspond to the five stars. It is not only about having all five elements in balance, but also about communicating with the stars in the sky that have the corresponding attributes.
Zhong Cai's eyes immediately lit up.
No way, no way, he's so lucky! He found something he really liked right away!
Wu Shaogan's expression was also somewhat strange.
I have to say, this really suits A-Cai very well.
This technique not only carries the power of stars, but also resonates with the "Meteor" hammer.
As long as the right secret technique is found, A-Cai's meteor hammer can also be transformed, and with the five elements combined with the five stars, there will be even more variations.
·
Wu Shao chuckled dryly, "It looks good."
Zhong Cai almost couldn't wait to continue flipping through the pages—
The next moment, his expression froze.
Wu Shaogan frowned slightly: "A-Cai, what's wrong?"
Zhong Cai said helplessly, "This technique is not even complete."
Wu Shaogan was taken aback and looked at the next few pages as well.
Sure enough, the introduction clearly states that this method only has a preface.
All that Azure Dragon Academy possesses is the first part.
The realm levels distributed in the previous chapter are from Heavenly Guidance to Suspended Illumination.
Zhong Cai looked at one of the lines of text.
[Based on speculation, the complete cultivation technique at least reaches the Nirvana Realm, and most likely points directly to the Heavenly Realm.]
Zhong Cai took a deep breath.
If it truly points directly to the Heavenly Realm, then wouldn't it be roughly the same level as Old Wu's inheritance?
However, if one chooses this method, there will be no further cultivation techniques once Zhong Cai reaches the Suspended Illumination Realm.
If you want to continue your cultivation, you need to find the middle and later parts.
Wu Shaogan ruffled Zhong Cai's hair to wake him up: "Cai, what do you think?"
Zhong Cai hesitated: "...Let's look at the others."
·
If one continues to cultivate this method until reaching the Suspended Illumination Realm, one will become very familiar with it, and many of the secret techniques learned will even require coordination with this method.
If the subsequent cultivation method cannot be found, Zhong Cai will not only have to start over with the cultivation method, but also have to change many secret realms.
The amount of cultivation resources and time lost is considerable.
Even the physical body needs to be "cleaned".
Troublesome, so troublesome.
Zhong Cai liked this technique very much, but he didn't dare to take too many risks.
Who can bet on their luck that they'll definitely get the follow-up?
The hope is too slim.
Zhong Cai secretly curled her lip.
He and Lao Wu seemed to have a special connection with the jade-inlaying method.
·
Wu Shaogan understood Zhong Cai's thoughts well, so he started looking at other things with him.
There are only about twenty books on the Five Elements attributes, so finding them is very quick.
Before long, the two of them had finished reading it all.
Then, they looked at each other in bewilderment.
Other Five Elements attribute cultivation techniques...
There are also two fragments, but they are both suitable for swordsmanship and don't need to be considered.
The remaining ones are of a fairly high rank.
Most of them are level 5, there are two level 6 books and one level 7 book.
In other words, if one cultivates the five elements in the academy, as long as one can comprehend it, one will usually cultivate this one book.
Zhong Cai sighed, looking somewhat wistful.
Wu Shaogan brushed away his melancholy.
Zhong Cai rolled her eyes and then said quietly, "After looking at them all, I've finally settled on that one."
Wu Shaogan also sighed.
·
Indeed, the cultivation techniques accepted by the Azure Dragon Academy are not bad, but those with all five elements are rare. Even for a powerful eighth-level force, it is not easy to find them all.
The quality of the profound energy cultivated will not be too low, but it is still relatively mediocre.
None of them have much of a special feature.
Choosing these subjects would contradict Zhong Cai's initial idea.
·
The two looked at each other in bewilderment.
...Should we take the risk?
Wu Shaogan said, "A-Cai, do whatever you want. No matter what you choose, I will be with you."
Zhong Cai instantly felt soothed.
Yes, no matter what, Lao Wu will stay with him.
So what if he can't find the next cultivation method? So what if he has to fail and start over? So what if he finds it unsuitable or encounters other difficulties after practicing?
There are always more solutions than problems.
Even when he was helpless, Lao Wu could protect him.
He has a Daoist partner, and he has plenty of support!
What's there to be afraid of! Just do it!
·
Zhong Cai said decisively, "I've decided, I want that star! We'll talk about the rest when we meet again!"
Wu Shaogan had actually considered the options Zhong Caihui might have.
Since that's the case...
Wu Shao chuckled dryly, "Then shall we go straight to the fourth floor later?"
Zhong Cai excitedly said, "I want the first part too!"
The two made a decision based on this.
Next, they arrived at the middle of the second tower level.
The corridor opposite leads to special vaults on both sides, containing various inheritances.
Zhong Cai pulled Wu Shaogan and they ran back and forth quickly.
None of the traditions are about the meteor hammer.
Then there's no need to look at it further.
Zhong Cai only said, "If you have the chance, you can try your luck with two of the archery-related skills, Old Wu."
Wu Shao chuckled dryly and replied, "Okay."
We'll have to wait until he's stronger before we talk about that.
·
The middle of the tower is a very spacious area.
There are many pillars here, and teleportation arrays in front of it.
Many cultivators, after arriving here, will choose a pillar to stand on nearby, and then either climb up or down.
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan followed the same procedure as when they first entered the tower.
The only difference is that you choose the pillar on the fourth floor of the tower.
·
The two were very familiar with the route.
The layout of all the tower levels is the same; the rooms with the five elements attributes at the bottom are the same as those at the top.
Even the different techniques and secret skills are placed in similar positions in the middle and later parts as in the earlier parts.
Therefore, Zhong Cai easily found all the previous chapters of that technique in a similar layout.
Wu Shaogan smiled and handed over the token in his hand.
Zhong Cai quickly placed the command token into the groove.
The command token vanished in the next instant.
Zhong Cai could easily turn to the last page of the book in her hands.
Wu Shao chuckled dryly and said, "Congratulations."
Zhong Cai immediately said, "Congratulations to you, congratulations to you."
The two returned to the second floor of the tower.
This time, Zhong Cai pulled Wu Shaogan along and quickly found the location of the Five Elements-related secret techniques.
As long as all five elements are present, it's quite easy to find secret techniques that incorporate the attributes of the five elements.
Because Zhong Cai hurriedly flipped through the previous chapter and found that the secret techniques corresponding to the five stars could be all five elements or a single attribute.
However, if one star has a corresponding secret technique, but the other four stars do not have corresponding secret techniques, then over time, it may lead to an imbalance of the five elements in his body.
In the early stages, this imbalance could be transformed through dual cultivation with Wu Shaogan, who possessed Yin and Yang attributes. However, as one's strength increased, this imbalance of the internal environment could no longer be completely resolved through a Daoist partner.
There will inevitably be some aftereffects.
When it comes to actual combat, such aftereffects could lead to very serious consequences.
However, if that were all, it wouldn't be difficult to collect all the books in the Myriad Classics Tower.
The real challenge is that Zhong Cai wants the secret technique of the meteor hammer.
·
Zhong Cai muttered to herself, "I've made up my mind, I want them all!"
Wu Shaogan didn't dampen his spirits, but just smiled and said, "If we can't find all the right ones here, we'll go ask our master again."
Zhong Cai said excitedly, "That's right! The masters already have their own unique backgrounds, and even if they don't, they have extensive connections. Asking them to help find it will definitely be easier for them than for us..."
·
In the end, Zhong Cai only managed to select one secret technique.
A single-attribute fire-based secret technique.
The stars that can be matched are of the fire element.
Zhong Cai wasn't too disappointed, after all, even just one secret technique was enough for him to cultivate.
·
The ultimate effect of this secret technique is a meteor sweeping across the sky; at a higher level, it can even result in a meteor falling from the sky.
Zhong Cai loved this secret technique and exclaimed, "Old Wu! When I learn it and fight someone, they'll be fighting with real swords and spears, and my meteor hammer will turn into a real meteor. It'll be so cool!"
Wu Shaogan smiled and said, "When we can attack together, I will shoot the arrow, and you will use this secret technique to assist. At that time, countless meteors and meteorites will fall, carrying endless flames."
Zhong Cai looked on with longing and said smugly, "Just thinking about it is awesome!"
Wu Shaogan chuckled: "That's right."
The two of them have basically achieved their purpose in coming here.
Zhong Cai continued to the fourth tower floor, using the token quota to exchange for the secret techniques of the first and second parts.
That would be a great deal.
·
The two did not immediately leave the tower.
Their next destination was the Battle Hall.
·
The Battle Hall is a special hall within the Myriad Classics Tower, and also a place for trading.
Unlike the diverse array of items traded in the Trading Hall, here there are only various images.
The images cover a wide range of topics.
For example, miscellaneous studies include alchemy, talisman making, array formation, and weapon crafting. Once activated, one can repeatedly watch a miscellaneous practitioner demonstrate their skills.
Moreover, the techniques that can be contained here must be extremely advanced, and may even contain some very private recipes.
Just like Zhong Cai, with his abilities, he is also capable of sending his own image.
He can choose a unique formula from his own lineage to refine, which may include his unique methods for handling several medicinal herbs, every technique in the refining process... and the resulting pill must contain top-grade elixirs.
Only in this way can a transaction have value.
For example, combat-themed games offer a variety of display possibilities.
For example, demonstrating the cultivation of a martial arts technique, demonstrating the cultivation and combat effects of a secret skill, or demonstrating an intense battle...
The techniques and secret skills can be those that the academy already possesses, and the disciple making the recording must have a very thorough understanding of them and be able to help other disciples; alternatively, they can be created by the disciples themselves, and other disciples can pay a price to buy them for practice.
Compared to the former, the latter's prices are much cheaper, while the former's prices are very expensive.
Battles usually involve two sides, often recorded by two people simultaneously.
·
Regardless of which disciple produced these recordings, once they passed the review and were placed in the Myriad Classics Tower, the disciple who produced the recording would receive the corresponding transaction funds if other disciples traded them.
Whenever a recording is uploaded here, the disciple can obtain a certain number of task points based on the rating; the transaction funds that can be obtained each time are 50% of the amount paid by the buyer.
The commission rate for Wandian Tower is quite high.
But there's no way around it; a portion of it has to be allocated to the reviewing supervisors.
The mentors are all very busy with their own affairs, and without additional income, they don't have the energy to do this review year after year.
·
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan entered the Battle Hall.
There are even more people here now.
The two entered from the side and looked at the countless squares on the four walls.
Each square contains a recording crystal. You can activate it to see the contents—of course, you need to use the recording as collateral, and you'll have to go back to return it.
Therefore, most disciples who want to make a transaction will watch the recordings here unless they are very expensive.
At this moment, most of the disciples held the crystal in their hands, only sparing a sliver of their attention to be vigilant.
Therefore, no one paid much attention to the newcomers, Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan.
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan looked at them one by one.
Both of them were aiming for combat-related activities.
Wu Shaogan wanted to observe some high-level battles, while Zhong Cai wanted to see how others used the meteor hammer.
·
The two walked and searched.
There are short video introductions in front of the cabinet, but there are too many of them, densely packed. Before you can condense your primordial spirit and scan with your soul sense, you have to look at them with your naked eyes, which is quite dazzling.
The two of them had not yet found their respective goals.
At that moment, they suddenly noticed a small, open room in the corner.
Zhong Cai was a little curious.
What is this small room for?
Wu Shaogan went with him to the door and saw that several disciples were staring at the wall directly opposite, as if they were looking at some kind of scene.
The two people were outside the door, but they couldn't see the scene.
Zhong Cai became even more curious.
Wu Shaogan's gaze fell on the notice by the door, and he poked Zhong Cai.
Zhong Cai immediately looked over.
The two were immediately taken aback.
The notice stated that the video being played in the small room was footage of disciples participating in the entrance examinations over the years.
Zhong Cai blinked: "Old Wu, shall we go take a look too?"
