Immortal Road.

Chapter 111: Overall Strengthening
"I want to use this year's salary as an advance for the offering."

Lin Shan gritted his teeth and made this somewhat embarrassing request, but he had no choice as he was really afraid of being poor.

There was only one Wind Escape Talisman in the talisman shop, and who knows if it would still be there in a few days. And I needed to buy some other things to prepare in advance, otherwise it might be too late to prepare by then.

Master Zuo was unexpectedly generous. Perhaps he was optimistic about Lin Shan's future and was willing to give him some convenience.

It is also possible that it is just a few thousand spirit stones, which is nothing in the eyes of the big capitalist of this auction house, so he directly approved it generously.

Lin Shan went downstairs with Zuo Zhenren's approval and found a group of appraisers and auction house monks gathered together to discuss Lin Shan's foundation building. The dozen people didn't expect the real master to come down so soon and were all shocked.

Then they complimented me with smiling faces and kept calling me "senior".

After all, in the world of cultivation, strength is respected, and age is not considered but cultivation. Whoever has a higher realm is the "senior", and the one who has achieved success is the teacher, which has been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Seeing his former colleagues changing their expressions and calling him seniors, especially the old men bowing to a "young man" like him, Lin Shan felt a little uncomfortable with this first experience.

It shouldn't shorten your life.
He muttered to himself in his heart, but on the surface he quickly accepted his identity, exchanged a few polite words with everyone, and directly handed the note from Zuo Zhenren to one of the female cultivators in charge of finance.

"One year's salary in advance!"

The female cultivator couldn't help but exclaimed, then suddenly came to her senses and quickly covered her mouth. Seeing the strange looks from the people around her, she quickly ran to the back to handle the procedures for Lin Shan.

……

After getting the 1,200 spirit stones, Lin Shan felt more confident and returned to the shop area in high spirits.

"Wind Escape Talisman, Fiery Talisman, I bought them!"

The waiter looked at the spirit stones in the storage bag and handed over the talisman respectfully.

Next, Lin Shan swept through the entire store area and bought a large number of various travel supplies such as detoxification pills, miasma-removing pills, water-repelling beads, soul-restoring pills, rejuvenation talismans, healing ointments, night-shining pearls, concentration incense, and so on.

After all, going to the East China Sea to join the demonic sect is unpredictable, and you don't know what kind of dangers you will encounter, so it is better to prepare some means to be prepared.

Finally, he went to the Formation Pavilion, which specialized in selling formations. He originally wanted to buy a set of defensive formations to protect his place of residence. However, he found that the cheapest spirit gathering formations cost 500 spirit stones, and the worst formations that could defend against the foundation-building period cost thousands of spirit stones.

As a last resort, he had to settle for the next best thing and bought two sets of restriction jade slips, one set of mysterious restriction and one set of warning restriction.

Compared with the formation, the stability and power of the forbidden jade slip are one level lower, equivalent to a simplified version, but it is cheaper and can provide cultivators with a certain amount of reaction time to deal with troubles.

Now Lin Shan's pockets were empty again, completely empty, and he could do nothing.

Originally, he was thinking of buying a few puppets to play with, and then buying a spiritual pet to cultivate it, but reality could not support his dream.

……

After returning to his residence, Lin Shan took out the things he had purchased and prepared to upgrade all the things that needed to be strengthened, striving to ensure that his combat effectiveness would not fall behind among the cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

He had just broken through the initial stage of foundation building, which could be said to be a step into a new level. But in the same way, he, who was the best in the Qi training stage, fell to the bottom when he came to the foundation building stage.

But even though his cultivation level is at the bottom among cultivators of the same level, as long as he can make up for it by other means, he may be able to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.

Lin Shan first took out the mid-level magic weapon, the Fierce Wind Flag, and spent 16 points of ancient charm to directly strengthen it.

The flag instantly rose out of thin air, and a cloud of mist enveloped it, shaking with a buzzing sound. No one knew what kind of transformation it had gone through, but it finally fell into his hands and became

【Cloud-falling Banner】

Quality: High-level magical instrument

Introduction: A wind-attributed magical weapon, engraved with five advanced inscriptions: Sharp, Magic Resistance, Spirit Gathering, Stealth, and Phantom Cloud.

Enhancement required: 32 points

……

"what?"

Lin Shan looked at the introduction. This time the enhanced skill tree seemed to be leaning towards stealth and transmogrification.

But this is not surprising. After all, enhancement is inherently random. The Fierce Wind Banner originally had balanced attack, defense and healing. It is understandable that the enhanced Cloud Falling Banner added two other irrelevant effects.

The head of the banner can be used as a spear tip, and it is quite effective as an offensive weapon.

The body of the banner can be used to defend against spells, but it is best not to come into contact with weapons, otherwise it will easily be cut off by extreme attack weapons.

The spirit gathering effect is a real auxiliary role, nothing much to say.

Hiding is good, it can conceal your breath.

With the help of the phantom cloud, it directly turns into a cloud in the sky, which can be said to be perfectly hidden.

"A multifunctional magical tool!"

Compared with the ultimate physical defense of the Cloud Copper Heart Mirror and the multiple attribute attacks of the Five Elements Fan, the Cloud Falling Banner can be said to have greatly made up for other means.

After Lin Shan used his spiritual consciousness to make sacrifices, he felt refreshed. He activated the small flag to wrap his body, and a leisurely white cloud floated in the cave with the wind.

When passing by the big tree in the yard, you can even walk straight through it.

The fake is no different from the white clouds in the sky.

"Not bad!"

Lin Shan put away the Cloud-Subduing Banner with satisfaction, and after thinking about it, he decided not to upgrade the magic weapon any further.

Because on that day at Diaobie Island in the East China Sea, when Lin Fan took out the magic weapon, the Sea-Splitting Pearl, he seemed to have said that the magic weapon could only be activated by the magic power of a Jindan-stage cultivator.

Mana is the new energy generated by the transformation of spiritual power after the Jindan stage cultivators condense the golden elixir. The spiritual power in the body of the foundation-building stage cultivators is still there, and the quality is completely incomparable to mana.

Unable to activate, the magic weapon can only exert its original unique properties.

For example, the "water-repelling" effect of the Pihai Pearl, or the sharpness of some magic swords, the hardness of shields, and other passive physical properties that do not need to be activated. Therefore, even if you strengthen it into a magic weapon, you will not only be unable to use it, but also lose a means in vain, which is obviously not worth the loss.

Instead, he took out the Wind Escape Talisman and the Fiery Fire Talisman from his storage bag. There was no problem strengthening the talisman, after all, the talisman could be activated directly without any prerequisites.

After thinking about the Wind Escape Talisman, Lin Shan decided to put it aside for the time being.

After all, I am in the Foundation Establishment Stage and using the Wind Escape Talisman, I should be able to escape even if I can't beat others, so there is no need to strengthen it for the time being.

Besides, the talisman is just a consumable, it would be fine if it were the wind escape technique!

But the other fire talisman is different. This high-level talisman is only equivalent to a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage using a high-level spell to attack with all his strength. It is a good trump card for the Qi Condensation Stage, but it is dispensable for him in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, he spent two hundred spirit stones to buy it for no other reason than to strengthen it into a minor magical talisman!
The reason why he didn't buy the high-level wind talisman for strengthening, but had to buy this Fiery Fire Talisman, was not because he had a special liking for the strengthening "Fiery Sky Burning Talisman", but because the Fiery Fire Talisman was the cheapest among the high-level talismans.

Compared to the price of two hundred spirit stones for the Fire Talisman, the Wind Talisman could be sold for five hundred spirit stones, which was not something a poor guy like him could afford.

He had already overdrawn the auction house salary for the coming year, and he could not make a penny before leaving Yichuan. He might as well make do with the high-level talisman he had for strengthening himself.

Anyway, after seeing the power of Lin Fan's weapon that time, he had a basic idea of ​​it.

"Fire Talisman, strengthen!"

The high-level talisman in his hand instantly emitted a strong light that spread throughout the entire secret room. Countless cracks appeared on the original ghost-painted talisman, and beams of light shot out in all directions, scaring Lin Shan.

I saw a shadow of a little man on the talisman paper, setting up an altar for sacrifice. The pen moved like a dragon, and the wandering lines between heaven and earth were attracted and finally merged into a fiery red square talisman.

[Fire Spreading Across the Prairie]

Quality: Small magical talisman

Introduction: The talisman seals a fire-type magical power that spreads a prairie fire, which is equivalent to a late Jindan cultivator using a minor magical spell to attack with all his strength. It is a group-wide damage and can only be used once.

Enhancement required: 64 points

……

This time, I spent 32 points of Ancient Charm to strengthen it again from a high-level talisman, but it was worth it in exchange for an ultimate killer.

The products of reinforced panels are naturally the best of the best, with the quality and performance being maximized.

In the late Jindan period, small magical spells can be used, even if they are not single-target attacks but group-area damage.

If a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage is in the center of such power, it is highly unlikely that he will survive. I'm sure that an ordinary cultivator in the early Golden Core Stage would be seriously injured.

"The Blazing Fire Awakening the Prairie Talisman and the Blazing Fire Burning the Sky Talisman should have similar effects. Are they both a series of magical powers?"

Lin Shan didn't dwell too much on the difference in the names. The enhancement panel explained it clearly anyway. As long as the power was strong enough, it was fine. There was no need to be too serious about it. After all, the enhancement results were not exactly what he expected, so it was fine as long as they were roughly the same.

This small magical talisman of mine must be much stronger than Lin Fan's.

The talismans refined by different Jindan-stage cultivators naturally have different powers. He is so confident about the enhanced panel!

Next, Lin Shan took out the "Wind and Thunder Sutra" that he had bought for the Qi training period. The quality of the technique also determines the quality of the spiritual power in his body. To strengthen it, he must choose the one that suits him best.

However, this strengthening was somewhat unexpected. The original "Wind and Thunder Art" seemed to have a ready-made follow-up technique in the world of immortal cultivation, and it had been developed by predecessors, so after the strengthening it was still called "Wind and Thunder Art".

【Wind and Thunder Skill】

Quality: Foundation-building period technique
Introduction: Created by Ouyang Feng, an abandoned disciple of Zixiao Sect thousands of years ago, this technique is a practice that involves the simultaneous cultivation of wind and thunder. After mastering it, the spiritual power in the body is transformed into wind and thunder, doubling its power.

Enhancement required: 32 points

……

"Ouyang Feng, the abandoned disciple of Zixiao Sect?"

"To be able to create a dual-train cultivation technique like the Wind and Thunder Art, he must be a very famous person!"

"A thousand years ago? That doesn't seem too far away."

"You can send an email to ask Lin Fan."

After some thought, Lin Shan simply took out a sound transmission talisman and wrote a reply to Lin Fan's previous text message bombardment, and also attached his curiosity about "Ouyang Feng".

After that, he waved his hand, and the sound transmission note flew to the mailbox of Yichuan Foreign Affairs Hall. At that time, a special postman from the cultivation world, "Hyacinth", would naturally deliver the letter for him.

Since I was really penniless, I had to set up "pay postage on delivery".

There was no other way. It wasn't that he was stingy. It was just that casual cultivators were in such a difficult situation. He could only let Lin Fan help him to pay for it first and then pay it back when he had money.
After dealing with this little episode, Lin Shan began to change his cultivation method. There were only 40 points of ancient rhyme left, and he planned to keep them as a way out for himself.

After all, if you really encounter irresistible danger at that time, you will need to strengthen a magic weapon or a small magical talisman to resist it, which will require at least 32 points of ancient charm support.

If he does not encounter any danger and cultivates to the peak of the initial stage of foundation building, he may need to strengthen the elixir again when he needs to break through. If he still cannot find the extra ancient rhyme at that time, the remaining ancient rhyme will be his precious pillar for breaking through the realm.

After all, the Black Lotus Sect is a major demonic sect with many masters. Although he has cultivated to the foundation-building stage, it is not certain whether he can come into contact with the Black Lotus Buddha statue to absorb the ancient charm. It is necessary to keep some ancient charm as a reserve.

Just like foreign exchange reserves in the previous life, it can protect against external risks.

With less than a year left, the only thing he had to do was to switch his skills as quickly as possible.

Use the "Wind and Thunder Art" to replace the original "Xunfeng Art".
