Immortal Road.

Chapter 110 Wind Escape Technique

No matter how precious a Qi training technique is, it will not cost more than a hundred spirit stones, let alone a dual-system technique like "Wind and Thunder Sutra"?
Basically few people can practice it. Even if they do, if there is no subsequent foundation-building technique, they will have to change the technique and start over.

When the manager of Baibao Pavilion saw that this "Wind and Thunder Art" had been gathering dust in the shop for so long and a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage actually wanted to buy it, he naturally smiled and gave it a discount, letting Lin Shan buy it for 30 spirit stones.

Lin Shan sighed and took out a blue magic sword from his storage bag. It was his former trump card, the intermediate-level magic weapon "Cold Iron Sword" that saved his life many times.

"Please help me take a look at this intermediate-level magic weapon. I plan to exchange it for another intermediate-level magic weapon with wind attribute."

The manager of the Treasure Pavilion nearby was suddenly enlightened and immediately took the cold iron sword to examine it carefully, praising it profusely.

"This sword is a top-grade mid-level magic weapon! It has three inscriptions and contains rare ice-type spiritual materials. Its price is probably no less than 500 spiritual stones."

"Please wait a moment, Senior. Let me go to the backstage to check the account book inventory."

The manager of Baibao Pavilion hurried to the back with a sword in his hand, leaving Linshan to sit in the VIP area to rest and drink tea.

In fact, he had already thought about replacing the Cold Iron Sword. It's not that the sword is not powerful, but for the same reason, the skill tree was just wrong!
Strengthening the panel can always give myself a surprise, but the problem is that if you give me a magic weapon with ice attributes, I can’t make the best use of it!

During the many battles against the enemy, the freezing effect of the Cold Iron Sword was basically negligible. Because of Lin Shan's own spiritual power, the characteristics of the magic weapon could not be maximized, which could be said to be incompatible with the attributes.

If he replaced it with a magic sword with wind attribute, it would be as easy to use as his own arm and move as fast as the wind. With the infusion of his own wind spiritual power, wouldn't it be even more powerful?
This is also one of the reasons why he has never strengthened the Cold Iron Sword into a high-level magical weapon.

Another reason is that in the previous Qi training stage, he could not activate high-level magic tools many times. Now that he is in the foundation building stage, high-level magic tools have become everyone's standard means.

As for why he had to come to the Treasure Pavilion to exchange for magic weapons first, it was because when Lin Shan first came to Yichuan, he planned to find the Weapon Refining Pavilion to recycle low-level magic weapons such as the Insect Breeding Tower and the Fine Iron Sword. However, the owner of the Weapon Refining Pavilion was so deceptive that he left him with the impression of a profiteer.

If the Treasure Pavilion doesn't have the magic weapon you like, it won't be too late to go there yourself.

……

We didn't have to wait too long in the VIP area before the manager of the Treasure Pavilion came out from backstage.

Not only did he take Lin Shan's cold iron sword, he also held a long box and placed it on the table in front of Lin Shan with a smile on his face.

"Wind-attribute magic weapons are relatively rare. We only have this one now. It is comparable to the ice-attribute magic sword of the senior. Why not open it and take a look first?"

"If you are not satisfied, we have other wind-attributed instruments here, but their functions and quality may not meet your standards."

The manager of Baibao Pavilion naturally knew how to deal with different people and what to bring out. He automatically filtered out some common low-level and mid-level magic tools. People didn't want high-level wind-attribute magic tools, and there was only this one mid-level boutique.

It’s not that Lin Shan doesn’t want a high-level wind-attribute magic weapon, but he is short of money now, with only four or five hundred spirit stones. Even if he sells the Cold Iron Sword, he probably can’t afford it.

Since I only have one year left before I go overseas, I naturally had to act rashly and make a mid-level fine magic weapon first, then take it back and strengthen it for my own use.

Opening the long box, a spear was quietly lying inside, with a cold gleam on the tip of the spear, and the spear was wrapped in a thick layer of green curtain. Lin Shan took it out and shook his hand, and the curtain stretched out, and a majestic flag fluttered above the hall.

[Strong Wind Flag]

Quality: Intermediate level magic weapon

Introduction: A wind-based magic weapon, the flag tip is made of cloud iron, and the flag pole is made of cloud wood. It has three intermediate inscriptions: sharp, magic resistance, and spirit gathering. It can only be used by wind-based monks.

Enhancement required: 16 points

……

"This Fierce Wind Flag is a top-quality mid-level magic weapon in our store. It combines both offensive and defensive functions, and can also gather wind energy from the surrounding heaven and earth. During a battle, it can not only increase the power of wind-attribute spells, but also speed up the recovery of wind-attribute spiritual energy."

The manager of Baibao Pavilion gave a detailed introduction on the side, and Lin Shan nodded repeatedly, playing with the big flag and unable to let it go.

This Fierce Wind Flag is more like a multi-functional auxiliary magic weapon. After all, it only has one magic resistance inscription for defense, which is incomparable to the five defense inscriptions on his own Cloud Copper Heart Mirror.

The attack inscription only has one word, "Sharp", which cannot compare with the Cold Iron Sword.

As for the auxiliary power of gathering spirits, the effect of strengthening the recovery of spiritual power can only be said to be average.

But for a mid-level magic weapon to have three effects is already amazing. Moreover, I have to strengthen it into a high-level magic weapon when I go back, and who knows what new functions it will have by then.

After all, he already had a high-level attack magic weapon, the Five Elements Fan given to him by Lin Fan. What he lacked now was more means to fight the enemy, so naturally the more magic weapon effects the better.

"Okay, just this one!"

Lin Shan didn't say much, talking about the value and rarity. One of them has ice attribute and the other has wind attribute, one is a pure ultimate attack weapon, and the other has balanced attack, defense and healing. Maybe Lin Shan suffered a little loss, but he should let others gain something, right?

……

Next, Lin Shan went to look at other shops on the street.

After entering the Talisman Pavilion, Lin Shan was immediately attracted by the high-level talisman "Fire Talisman".

He had not forgotten the power of Lin Fan's small magical talisman "The Fiery Sky-Burning Talisman" when he was being chased by Xingtai Zen Master, a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The area within a mile was filled with fire, like purgatory. Xingtai Zen Master, a Buddhist monk who was good at defense, was directly blown to the point of losing his combat effectiveness.

If it were any other cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he would have been dead long ago!
If he bought a high-level Fiery Flame Talisman and then strengthened it into a minor magical talisman, it would not be too far behind. This could be one of the trump cards that could determine victory.

What I need now is a trump card, the stronger the better!

But just when I was about to buy it, I suddenly thought of a question. Why don't I buy a high-level wind attribute talisman to strengthen it?
Fire attributes can easily hurt oneself by mistake. In order to resist the Fiery Heaven Burning Talisman, Lin Fan didn't know how many talismans he had taken out. He used the Five Elements Robe, his Cloud Copper Heart Mirror, and the high-level flying boat's own defense to block it.

Even if I am in the foundation-building stage now, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to resist alone.

Don't let the enemy be killed by the explosion, while you also lose your combat effectiveness and be taken advantage of by a third party, which would become a joke.

The guy in the talisman building pointed at the wind attribute talisman and gave him a hurricane talisman, a tornado talisman, a flying talisman, a wind wall talisman, and a storm talisman.
Because wind-attribute talismans are relatively rare, they are twice as expensive as other talismans of the same tier.

But what surprised him even more was what happened next, because when he looked back, he actually saw a talisman that he had only heard of in rumors but had never seen before, which almost made him drool on the spot.

Wind escape talisman!
If we talk about the cultivators who are best at speed in the world of cultivation, the wind and thunder systems are the best. Among them, the wind escape technique and the thunder escape technique are the most famous and the best in the world of cultivation.

The key to the wind escape technique is to leave no trace. After performing it, the technique blends into the wind and loses all breath, which is equivalent to disappearing out of thin air, making it difficult to track down the person later.

The Thunder Escape Technique is extremely fast, as fast as lightning, and can often reach a point close to a target in the blink of an eye, making it basically difficult to catch up.

Compared to these two types of escape techniques that can be used anytime and anywhere, other escape techniques such as earth escape techniques, water escape techniques, wood escape techniques, blood escape techniques, etc., have various environmental restrictions or their own costs.

Unless it is the legendary Yimu Immortal Escape, Wanli Earth Travel, Renshui Divine Travel, Demon Explosion Blood Escape and other immortal arts, ordinary escape arts can be easily used and targeted by powerful people with profound magic power, such as turning the ground into steel and condensing water into ice. But even so, among low-level cultivators, this kind of escape art is basically unsolvable under certain circumstances. Ordinary casual cultivators have no way to learn it, and there is no place to buy it!
If you want to escape, you can only buy talismans made by a few powerful forces.

Moreover, even among the big forces, this kind of escape technique is extremely difficult to learn. Without top-notch comprehension and spiritual root qualifications, as well as a special Dharma body and Dao fetus, it is impossible to learn it in a lifetime. It is recognized as the most difficult of all spells to learn.

"Is there any place that sells Wind Escape Technique spells?" Lin Shan asked without giving up.

The waiter didn't want to pay attention to him, but seeing that Lin Shan was a senior in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he had to reply weakly, "I've never heard of him."

Lin Shan had no more hesitation and asked the price directly, intending to buy the Wind Escape Talisman. After all, this thing was hard to come by. He didn't know how this shop got it, but the next moment, the price made him dumbfounded.

"The Wind Escape Talisman costs one thousand spirit stones? They are both high-level talismans, but the Blazing Fire Talisman only costs two hundred spirit stones!"

"My dear senior, the wind escape talisman is different from the attack talisman. It can be used repeatedly and leaves no trace when escaping. It is the safest escape technique."

"But apart from wind attribute monks who can hide their tracks perfectly, monks of other attributes will still leave clues when using them."

"So other types of earth escape talismans and water escape talismans also require thousands of spirit stones."

"."

Lin Shan was speechless. Now he finally realized how poor he was.

The higher your cultivation level is, the more expensive the various items related to your own iteration will become. You are a poor guy in the Qi training stage, and you are still a poor guy in the foundation building stage!
Without saying a word, Lin Shan turned around and went to Yichuan Auction House.

……

"You kid actually succeeded in building your foundation?"

Zuo Zhenren, who was in the Jindan stage and was drinking tea on the fifth floor, looked incredulous as he looked at Lin Shan, who was already in the early stage of foundation building. If he was not mistaken, this kid was only 20 years old!

Without giving him the foundation-building pill, he was so impatient and forced himself to build the foundation, and he actually succeeded!

Should I say he is carefree or just incredibly lucky?

"It was just luck," Lin Shan laughed dryly.

Master Zuo took it quite seriously, touching his chin and nodding continuously.

"The road to immortality is long. One's own aptitude is important, but it is even more critical to reach the next level of enlightenment."

"But luck is the decisive factor!"

“Some people waste half their lives, but when luck strikes, they soar to the sky!”

"Luck and opportunity are beyond words!"

……

Zuo Zhenren sat there, shaking his head, as if he had thought of many things in his hundreds of years of life. The more he experienced, the more he could understand such a low-probability event as Lin Shan.

There was nothing to doubt at the moment. After all, the cultivation world was so vast that there were strange people and strange things happening every day. Although it was surprising that he succeeded in building his foundation without using the foundation-building pill, it was not unacceptable.

Master Zuo was really moved by this talent. After all, this kid had an incredibly high talent for identification and had always been a good helper to his auction house.

Now he doesn’t need any help from himself. At the age of 20, he has broken through the foundation-building stage by relying on his “luck”. Maybe he will be able to reach the golden elixir stage in the future!
"Unfortunately, I have already married into a family of cultivators, and my heritage and assets have been inherited by my children and grandchildren, so it is not convenient for me to accept any more disciples."

"If you have any needs, just ask."

"The auction house will vigorously train you in the future!"

Lin Shan also understood the meaning of Zuo Zhenren's words. It was obvious that he was planning to recruit him for real rather than just a simple employment relationship.

At the moment, he was a little eager to try, and cautiously said: "I am currently lacking a wind escape technique."

Master Zuo was stunned and remained silent for a long time.

"this."

"The Wind Escape Technique is extremely rare. There are probably only a few sects in the entire Song Dynasty that have this technique. I personally and the family behind me do not have this kind of magic."

"But if you follow me and marry into a cultivation family, you will be able to choose from a variety of other spells in the future."

"It is very difficult for independent cultivators to cultivate. The future progress of those with power and those without power is completely different."

"If I hadn't joined the noble family, I'm afraid that no matter how high my comprehension was, I wouldn't have been able to enter the Golden Core Stage."

……

Master Zuo began to persuade Lin Shan earnestly. Many of his words were indeed based on his experience as a person with experience, and many of them were sincere and meant to help Lin Shan avoid detours.

If it were someone else, having a Jindan-stage cultivator as a guarantor to join a cultivation family would probably be the dream.

But Lin Shan shook his head in disappointment. Compared with the aristocratic families of cultivators, the Black Lotus Sect, a major demonic sect, naturally had more prospects.

He just asked with hope. If Master Zuo had the Wind Escape Technique, he might be able to go back and use the enhanced panel to get some good treasures in exchange.

Now that there is no news about the Wind Escape Technique, the most that Zuo Zhenren can do is bring himself into a family of cultivators and become a son-in-law like him.

Not only will you have ties and weaknesses, but you may have to work for other families in the future. If you are tied together, you will suffer together. How can you be free and easy in the world of cultivating immortals alone?

He tactfully told Zuo Zhenren that he would think about it first. After all, Lin Shan was still living under someone else's roof and working for others, and he didn't want to lose face for his boss.

Zuo Zhenren expressed his understanding. He was also a casual cultivator before. Although his talent was average, he had excellent comprehension and was also arrogant. He fantasized that he could achieve great power through his own efforts, live freely and achieve immortality.

But later, as I got older and experienced the beatings of society, I had no choice but to bow to capital.

In the end, he became the capitalist he once hated. The dragon slayer eventually became the evil dragon. There was nothing that could be done about it. I believe Lin Shan will understand his painstaking efforts in the future.

Lin Shan listened patiently to Master Zuo's advice, and then told him the real purpose of his coming out of seclusion this time.

Borrow money!
