A small casual cultivator!

Time passes and clouds roll and disperse.

In a blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

In the dim shelter, a young man with waist-length hair slowly opened his eyes.

After feeling it for a while, he chuckled and said, "Although I failed to break through, I have also raised my cultivation to the peak of the third level. With the power of the Fire Sword, I should be able to fight against someone at the fourth level of Qi Refining."

His cultivation improved and his true energy increased. Although he was disappointed, he was already very satisfied with it.

It’s not bad to break through to the peak of the third level of Qi Refining in half a year.

If it wasn't for preventing his realm from being suspended in vain, why would he buy this kind of mediocre elixir? He could just spend seven or eight hundred Essence Pills to buy a top-quality elixir, and he could break through to his current realm in ten days or half a month.

Therefore, although he relied heavily on elixirs, he was able to control himself well and showed no signs of instability.

"It's time to leave. This damn place is becoming increasingly unbearable."

After staying in this small, enclosed space for a long time, Lu Luan felt like he was about to turn into a stone.

After tidying up for a while, he walked out.

Standing outside, basking in the sunshine, he looked back again and muttered to himself, "I still have to work hard to practice and become stronger. Living in here is like a bug living in a dark nest."

After finishing speaking, he left without looking back. Having reached the peak of the third level of Qi Refining, he could already have a certain degree of support outside the Taiyuan city.

In half a year, he has changed a lot. He looks taller and no longer as thin as before.

"The fourth level of Qi Refining is a small hurdle for me. Without the right opportunity, it is not easy to break through. I might as well practice the Golden Silk Technique first. If I have the two magic weapons, the Fire Sword and the Golden Silk, I should be able to try to hunt monsters."

On the street, Lu Luan was thinking and talking to himself.

With his current level of cultivation, he can only find jobs that can produce about twenty Essence Pills in Taiyuan City. It is not easy to save enough money for a breakthrough, and time is not available.

The immortal sect was very strict in accepting disciples, and he was worried that if he hadn't reached the fourth level of Qi Refining before the age of sixteen, he would most likely not be able to join. Time was running out, so he set his sights on the monsters.

Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. If you want to make money quickly, the best option is to kill monsters in the nearby mountains.

He looked at the storage bag and thought, "I still have two hundred Essence Pills. Let's see if it's enough to buy a magic weapon."

He killed Wang Zheng and got a lot of good things from his storage bag. Even after breaking through to the peak of the third level of Qi Refining, there was still some left.

Practicing magic requires a magical tool, so he had to first buy a silk-shaped magical tool, then print gold-wrapped runes on it, and the practice would be complete.

I spotted a small shop selling magical instruments and walked in impatiently.

"Fellow Daoist, take me to see the magic weapon."

After entering, he spoke directly to a young female clerk.

"Okay sir, this way please!"

When she heard that they were buying magic tools, the woman immediately smiled, but he couldn't help but feel a little weird because she looked young but old.

However, seeing that Lu Luan is not very old and has a strong cultivation base, and of course, he must have considerable financial resources to be able to purchase magical instruments, so people subconsciously assumed that he was a young talent from some family.

Two hundred Essence Pills are indeed a good financial resource for someone who has reached the peak of the third level of Qi Refining.

Soon, she took him to the second floor.

Lu Luan said, "Fellow Daoist, please show me the silk-shaped magic weapon. The magic technique I want to practice is that kind."

"Silk type? This is rare, but our store happens to have a magic weapon made from the tendons of a low-level monster, the Green Water Snake. It should suit your taste."

The woman spoke slowly, but there was some surprise in her eyes. After all, most of the magic weapons were swords, knives, sticks, guns and so on. What Lu Luan said was indeed not easy to find.

"Then please take it out quickly and let us see it," Lu Luan said quickly with joy in his heart. He was still worried that he wouldn't be able to buy it.

"Sir, you should call me sister so that we can be closer. Sit here first," the woman said with a smile, leading him to a chair nearby. She then made him a cup of tea and walked into the back of the room and began to search.

Perhaps because she had not been able to sell it, she searched for a long time before she took out a long box from a corner and handed it to him, saying with a smile: "Sir, this is the magic weapon made from snake tendons. Please take a look."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

Lu Luan thanked him, took the box, and after opening it, he saw a white "rope" that was as thick as a little finger and about ten feet long.

"Not bad."

Lu Luan nodded in his heart, but a look of regret appeared on his face. He said, "Unfortunately, this snake tendon is too thick. It's OK to use it as a whip, but it's a bit difficult to use it as silk."

The woman next to him said quickly, "Sir, this magic weapon should be able to be stretched after being integrated with your magic, right?"

Lu Luan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it is possible, but it is really limited. Using this magic weapon will affect the power of the magic."

As soon as he finished speaking, he rolled his eyes and said, "But this magic weapon is tough and can still be used. Fellow Daoist, name a price."

After thinking for a while, the woman said, "Sir, how about this? Originally, it was sold for 320 Essence Pills. If you like it, I will sell you 300. How about that?"

"Three hundred?" Lu Luan gave her a strange look and said, "Daoyou, two hundred at most."

He guessed that the magic weapon should be worth about two hundred and seventy pieces, but it seemed a little difficult to sell, so he boldly started to bargain. After all, he was still young, so it didn't matter if he was a little thick-skinned. He might as well save as much as possible.

After hearing his price, the smile on the woman's face froze immediately, and she said bitterly: "Sir, your price is too harsh, let's each take a step back, 250 pieces, this is the limit."

Lu Luan shook his head and said, "Two hundred..."

Then he started to talk about its shortcomings and so on, a lot of words went by.

Of course, he himself felt that it was a bit too much, but he only had so many Essence Pills on him.

"Two hundred and thirty. Just two hundred and thirty."

After a while, Lu Luan said seriously.

The woman smiled bitterly and said admiringly, "Sir, I've been in this shop for so many years, but this is the first time I've met someone as good at bargaining as you. I'll go with your price. I swear to God, I really didn't make any money from you this time. I'll just treat it as making friends. I'll come back next time when I need a magic weapon."

She knew that this was probably the amount of Lu Luan's current family wealth, and seeing that he had some talent, she nodded in agreement.

"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist."

Lu Luan was overjoyed and took out all the Essence Pills.

"You're welcome," the woman smiled bitterly, took his Essence Pills and began to count them, but after a while, she said strangely, "Sir, it seems that you don't have enough Essence Pills."

Lu Luan was well prepared. He took out the Thunder Talisman, the remaining rock saliva, and a few spiritual herbs, and said, "Daoyou, can I use these to offset the rest?"

The woman was speechless. Although there was no such rule in the store, the business had already come to this point, so she said with a bitter face: "Young Master is really unpredictable. Well, just think of it as me spending thirty Essence Pills to buy all these things from you."

"Thank you, fellow Daoist. You are so easy to talk to. I will definitely come again next time." Lu Luan was overjoyed.

Seeing him like this, the woman was amused and said with difficulty, "I hope you won't bargain so hard next time you come."

"sure."

After the two exchanged a few polite words, Lu Luan left the shop.

Walking on the busy street, Lu Luan thought to himself, "Now that I have the magic weapon, I should engrave the runes on it. I wonder how powerful it will be without a gold-attributed treasure in it?"

The most important thing about Gold Silk is the word "gold". Among the five elements, gold is the sharpest. If you want the Gold Silk to have the power of the Fire Sword, you have to absorb treasures like the Flint Stone.

The reason why there are not many people with magic weapons is that they are too expensive. You need money to buy magic weapons, you need money to buy magic skills, and you also need money to increase their power. What do casual cultivators lack the most? It's money. It's difficult, difficult, difficult. Without money, even a hero can be defeated.

Lu Luan shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Never mind for now, let's refine the golden silk first. As for the treasures, we can buy them after we have enough Essence Pills."

Among wealth, friends, methods and land, wealth comes first. Without sufficient family background, no matter how good your talent is, there will be no room for display.

Of course, after staying in the dim shelter for a long time, he was not in a hurry to practice, but began to wander around the city to express the depression that had accumulated in his heart over the past few months.

Until nightfall.

"That's it. The runes of the Golden Silk are thirty more than those of the Fire Sword. A month should be enough."

At night, Lu Luan came to a bridge by the river, sat cross-legged, and after muttering to himself, he prepared to engrave the golden silk rune.

Although it took quite a while, he did not return to the underground shelter.

Now that he is quite powerful and has the Lihuo Sword, even those who are at the fourth level of Qi Refining cannot defeat him in a short time. Besides, this is the outskirts and there are not many people at the fourth level of Qi Refining, so it is relatively safe and there is no need to suffer in that dim little compartment.
