Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 52 Green Wood Sword Technique!

As soon as you step into the market area of ​​the shantytown, you are greeted by a vibrant atmosphere of daily life.

The streets of the market were not paved with stone slabs; they were all dirt roads.

Stalls lined both sides of the road.

They sell all kinds of things.

It contains not only talismans, elixirs, and magical implements used for cultivation, but also pots, pans, and daily necessities such as firewood, rice, oil, and salt.

The vendors shouted their wares, and the buyers bargained, all their voices blending together.

On one side, there are food stalls and open-air food stalls.

The aroma of cooking fills the air, and the smells are mouthwatering.

"Boss, a bowl of beef noodles, extra scallions, please!"

Ronan sat down at a food stall and shouted.

He didn't have lunch in Triumph City before coming here, just to try the local cuisine.

Soon, the owner brought out a bowl of fragrant beef noodles.

Ronan wasn't satisfied with just one bowl, so he ordered two more.

After finishing his meal and paying the bill, he loosened his belt slightly and headed towards the market.

This is Market Street No. B.

The entrance to the True Immortal Realm that he entered this time was closest to the Class B market.

So we came here first.

Ronan looked at the stalls in the market and saw that the prices of talismans and other items had returned to normal.

From this perspective, the cultivation world has been quite peaceful during this period.

Ronan walked around the stalls for a while with his hands behind his back, then suddenly stopped.

He saw a thin book with the words "Green Wood Sword Manual" written on the cover.

Just by looking at the name, one can tell that it is suitable for cultivators with wood-elemental roots.

"Can I read this book?" Ronan asked.

"Go ahead," the stall owner replied.

Ronan immediately picked up "The Green Wood Sword Manual" and opened it.

After reading the first few pages, I realized that this sword manual was indeed a sword manual for those with a wood elemental root.

His sword techniques are all executed using the power of wood.

The general outline of the sword technique states that it has twelve levels.

Once you practice the "Green Wood Sword Technique," you can use the power of wood to release sword energy to injure your enemies.

Once you reach the third level, you will be able to learn the "Azure Wood Sword Aura," which is even more powerful than sword energy.

Once you reach the sixth level, you will be able to learn the "Sword Shadow Splitting Light Technique".

Once you reach the ninth level, you will be able to learn the "Protective Sword Formation".

Once you reach the twelfth level, you will be able to learn the "Twelve Azure Spirit Sword Formation." This formation requires forging twelve Azure Spirit Swords.

The few pages Ronan flipped through only provided a brief introduction to this sword technique.

The pages detailing the subsequent cultivation methods were all in the stall owner's hands.

"How much for this sword technique?" Ronan asked.

The stall owner held up two fingers: "Two mid-grade spirit stones."

Two mid-grade spirit stones, or even around two hundred low-grade spirit stones.

Ronan used his spiritual sense to probe his storage ring and realized that he only had about sixty low-grade spirit stones, which was far from enough to buy the book.

“That’s too expensive,” Ronan said.

"Fellow Daoist, this sword technique is only worth this spirit stone, I can't lower the price any further!" the stall owner said.

“I only have about fifty low-grade spirit stones. If you’re willing to sell, I’ll give you all fifty of them,” Ronan said.

He thought, well, these books are all handwritten anyway.

Even if he sells it for fifty or so spirit stones, he could easily sell another handwritten copy.

"No, no, no! I'll only sell two mid-grade spirit stones, no less!"

The stall owner waved his hand, refusing to budge.

I wonder if the stall owner knows some of the customers' tricks—pretending to be poor to lower prices. "Never mind, I don't have enough money, I won't buy it."

Ronan shook his head and walked away immediately.

After leaving, he walked slowly, hoping that the stall owner would call him back.

But one step, two steps, three steps, four steps...

The stall owner didn't say a word.

Ronan sighed inwardly and then left.

He wandered around the other two markets and found that none of the books on spells and techniques he saw were as to his liking as "The Green Wood Sword Manual".

Because this "Azure Wood Sword Technique" is a sword technique exclusive to those with a wood spirit root, it can unleash the destructive power of wood magic.

Moreover, it has twelve levels and five sword techniques, making it far more comprehensive than any other book he has seen today.

'The only way to earn spirit stones now is...'

So Ronan bought some talisman paper in the market.

Back in the shack, he began to draw talismans.

The talismans he drew were all mid-grade first-tier talismans of the [Proficient] level or below, such as protective talismans, lightness talismans, and fire talismans.

He no longer draws talismans of the [Master Level] or higher.

Firstly, the price was too high, making it difficult to find a buyer quickly.

Secondly, it would infringe upon the interests of some talisman masters.

He knew that there were some talisman masters in the shantytown who specialized in selling [Master-level] talismans.

He didn't want to create more trouble after taking over the market from these talisman masters.

Thirdly, revealing one's skill in talismans might bring trouble upon oneself.

After all, this True Immortal Realm has cultivation families and the even larger True Immortal Sect.

If they had known they possessed such talent in talismans, they might have controlled themselves and devoted themselves to drawing talismans for them.

'Although it's peacetime now, talismans, being consumables in magical battles, aren't selling well.'

"But if I lower the price, I should be able to collect two mid-grade spirit stones in a few days."

As Ronan pondered this, he began drawing one first-grade mid-level talisman after another.

The highest level of skill in talisman making is the ability to draw talismans even when one's attention is diverted.

After spending half a day, and by nearly evening, Ronan had drawn nearly a thousand [Proficient] Tier 1 mid-grade talismans.

He let out a sigh of relief, put all the talismans into his storage bag, and with a thought, returned to the wizarding world.

……

Next, Ronan would set up a stall in the Class B market of the True Immortal Realm during the day, and return to the Wizarding World to cultivate and sleep at night.

He chose market stall number B to check if his copy of "The Green Wood Sword Manual" had been bought.

If someone buys it, he might be able to buy a handwritten copy from that person at a lower price.

Whenever someone went there to inquire about the price and then left, he would go back to the stall owner to bargain and see if the stall owner would be willing to lower the price.

The stall owner simply refused to lower the price.

Ronan had no choice but to continue accumulating spirit stones.

Five days later, they finally saved up two mid-grade spirit stones.

Ronan took two mid-grade spirit stones and walked to the stall, where he exchanged money and goods with the stall owner.

After delivering the goods, the stall owner packed up and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Upon seeing this, Ronan immediately stopped him:
"Fellow Daoist, you must wait until I verify the authenticity of this sword technique before you leave, right?"

The stall owner was still packing up: "You see, this book has about a hundred pages. By the time you finish reading it, who knows when. I have to go back now."

“I’ll inspect the goods quickly, you just wait here for a moment,” Ronan said.

The stall owner ignored him, packed up his stall, and walked straight out of the market.

'Could there be something fishy about this sword technique?'

A bad feeling welled up in Ronan's heart, and he quickly followed.
