Chapter 109 Meeting an old friend on the road

Xiao Lin did not plan to practice this golden battle armor seal, but he was also a little undecided, which made him fall into a state of thinking again.

During the trial in Blackwater Lake, he also discovered his shortcomings in melee combat ability while fighting a large group of Demon Fang Black Bats on Black Bat Island. Both the Fireball Technique and the Thunderbolt Technique were suitable for long-distance use. Once the monsters It is a bit embarrassing to cast spells at close range. If you do not do it well, you will hurt yourself. If you use your spiritual consciousness to control the power and shape of the spell so that it can adapt to close combat, the power will be greatly reduced.

This made Xiao Lin urgently need a training method that can be used in close combat. However, after thinking about it, he still put down the golden body armor seal in his hand, because although the golden body armor, this elementary spell, can be used on the body surface, Condensing a suit of armor to protect oneself, but in the final analysis, it is still a condensation of mana, which is not essentially different from one's own Void Spirit Shield. The flaw of this defensive spell is that once the defense is broken, oneself will be in a Extremely dangerous situation.

Cultivators cultivate magic power and soul, but do not cultivate the physical body. This also leads to the fact that in the fight with monsters, once the monsters tear apart the defense at close range, it is basically a certain death situation. This is why Xiao Lin is in After possessing the green gold shield, a high-level magic weapon, it is necessary to cultivate the virtual soul shield to the fundamental reason of great perfection.

After thinking for half an hour, Xiao Lin couldn't think of a better way, so he could only put it down temporarily. He sorted the remaining materials scattered around one by one and put them into the storage bag.

Then he stood up, came to the stone door, and gently turned the knob next to the stone door. With a dull "zaza" sound, the Dragon Broken Stone rose up.

Xiao Lin walked out of the stone house and went to the living room. He saw the disciple of Bailian Sect lying on the table and sleeping soundly. The snoring was also quite rhythmic. Xiao Lin couldn't help but smile. He did not disturb the sleeping Bailian. The disciples of Sect Refining walked out of the gate of Stone Furnace and headed towards the outer city.

After returning to the inn, Xiao Lin closed the door, fell on the bed and fell asleep. Not only did the weapon refining during this period consume too much mana, but he was also mentally exhausted.

Xiao Lin woke up from his sleep at three o'clock in the morning the next day. After washing, he went downstairs to have some breakfast, and then returned to the house.

In the next five days, Xiao Lin didn't even bother to go downstairs to eat. Instead, he asked the waiter to bring the food to the house. Xiao Lin began to fall into hard training again. Xiao Lin felt that his magic power had gone through this period of time. His weapon refining ability actually increased again, so he struck while the iron was hot and took the improved version of Yunling Pill again to start practicing.

Xiao Lin originally planned to set off for Xueling Immortal City, but there were still a few days left before he could get his Seven Blades Slash, so he could only stay in Chixia Immortal City for the time being. He had nothing to do, so he might as well practice hard and see if he could Do you want to push your cultivation to the peak of the seventh level of Qi refining, so that you can try to see if you can break through to the eighth level of Qi refining?

If it were two days ago, Xiao Lin would not have had this idea at all. After all, with his qualifications, even if the seventh level to the eighth level of Qi refining is not a bottleneck for ordinary spiritual cultivators, but For Xiao Lin, it was enough to stop him from moving forward, but after possessing a Water Spirit Pill, the situation was different. With this second-level Spirit Pill that practitioners in the Foundation Establishment Stage flocked to, he had at least six or seven The certainty of success can break through the bottleneck of the seventh level of Qi refining and enter the eighth level of Qi refining.

As long as he can enter the eighth level of Qi Refining, his mana can be at least doubled, which will undoubtedly be of great help in improving his combat power.

Early in the morning on the fifth day, Xiao Lin opened his eyes from trance. The crystal light flashed away. He breathed a sigh of relief. After these few days of hard training, his magic power had improved a little. , but he was still a little short of the seventh-level peak, which made him helpless, but it was also an acceptable thing. After all, cultivation is a time-consuming and labor-intensive matter.

It is too unrealistic to expect a very obvious improvement in a few days. Fortunately, he has a water spirit pill, which has cleared some obstacles for his practice. This alone, Xiao Lin was very satisfied.

Xiao Lin got up from the bed, went downstairs, left the inn directly, and headed towards the ancient artifact building in the inner city.

Two hours later, Xiao Lin, wearing a breathing mask and a bamboo hat, appeared at the gate of Chixia Fairy City. He glanced back at the four ancient seals on the city wall, and then rose into the sky with Seven Blades. Heading towards the depths of the Tianlu Mountains.

Feeling the changes in the Seven-Blade Slash, Xiao Lin's face showed a look of surprise. The Seven-Blade Slash in his hand was white with a faint red halo. After his mana was injected into it, it ran more freely than before. Many, the upgraded Seven Blade Slash is not only faster than before by at least 50%, but also seems to be more compatible with Xiao Lin.

After upgrading to the best magic weapon, Seven Blades Slash's attribute of increasing the power of basic spells by 10% surprised him even more. You must know that most of the best magic weapons can only increase the power of basic spells. For the improvement of basic spells, It's very small. Having half a percent is already the best among the best. And the second-level weapon refiner surnamed Zhu from the Ancient Artifact Building did not disappoint. Not only did he successfully upgrade the Seven Blade Slash, he also turned it into a The best of the best, this really surprised Xiao Lin.

Although Xiao Lin's current level of cultivation is still unable to exert the maximum power of this top-quality magical weapon, the full-strength blow he is sending out now is definitely comparable to the full-power imperial master of the Dzogchen cultivator in the Qi Refining Period. The magic weapon issued a full blow.

As for the high-level magic weapon of the Green Gold Shield, it was somewhat damaged during the battle with the monk named Qu, and was repaired by the weapon refiner named Zhu. The only thing that made Xiao Lin a little regretful was that he did not upgrade this green gold shield. The material of the mutated monster of the golden shield, otherwise it would be perfect if the lapis lazuli shield could also be upgraded to a top-grade magic weapon.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin couldn't help but smile and thought to himself whether he was too greedy. Now he not only has practiced two basic spells to perfection, but also possesses the top-notch magic weapon of Seven Blades Slash, a high-grade green gold shield. Level magic weapon, not to mention his other trump cards, these alone are enough for him to confidently face a Dzogchen cultivator in the Qi refining stage.

Although repairing the green gold shield magic weapon also cost him two hundred low-grade spiritual stones, this price is nothing to Xiao Lin's rich net worth today. From the storage bags of the three monks named Qu He sold off all the materials and magic weapons he obtained. Now, the low-grade spiritual stones in his bag now total as much as six to seven thousand yuan. Such a large number of spiritual stones are almost worth the wealth of a small cultivator family. .

The opening of the catacomb trial is still a month away, and the entrance to the catacombs is in the Wanli Snowfield in the north of the Tianlu Mountains, and the Wanli Snowfield is close to the largest fairy city in the Tianlu Mountains, Xueling Fairy City, so Xiao Lin this time The destination is this Xueling Fairy City.

Xueling Immortal City is located in the center of the five major sects. Not only does this fairy city itself have a medium-sized spiritual vein, which makes the spiritual energy of Xueling Immortal City far richer than that of other fairy cities, the cultivation in this Xueling Immortal City is also stronger than that of other immortal cities. The rest of the fairy cities are much faster, and the Snow Ridge Fairy City almost appeared with the rise of the five major sects. Even the people behind many of the shops in the Snow Ridge Fairy City are people from the five major sects.

Occupying the spiritual veins of the Tianlu Mountains, naturally the trading of spiritual materials will not be left to other chambers of commerce. You must know that the number of casual cultivators and cultivator families in the Tianlu Mountains is extremely large, and the transactions on spiritual materials occur every year. The profit is absolutely an astronomical figure.

Naturally, the five major sects will not miss such a good business. Most of the shops in small and medium-sized fairy cities such as Wuyin Fairy City and Chixia Fairy City are run by cultivating families. But behind these cultivating families, eight out of ten There are shadows of the five major sects in Jiudu. Just to appease the dissatisfaction of the large number of casual cultivators, the five major sects will not appear on the table.

The situation in Xueling Immortal City is different. Except for a few large shops, most of the shops are directly operated by the five major sects. You must know that the five major sects also have a large number of cultivators in the Qi Refining Period. These Qi Refining Period cultivators After those who failed to build the foundation, or those who are over forty years old and have no hope of building the foundation, most of them will be arranged to deal with some chores of the sect. These chores include running those in the fairy city. Zongmen directly operated stores.

The annual profits of these shops account for at least 30% of the sects' annual spiritual stone consumption. In a sense, the livelihood of the five sects in the major immortal cities is related to the rise and fall of the five sects. This is no exaggeration. .

However, these are not urgent matters for Xiao Lin. What he wants to do most now is to join the five major sects and go further on the road of cultivation.

Driving the Seven-Blade Slash and flying at lightning speed in the Tianlu Mountains, Xiao Lin felt extremely comfortable. The pleasure of walking with the wind and galloping between the sea of ​​clouds and the mountains made him feel very enjoyable. This is what "immortality" is. That's how it should be, at least in Xiao Lin's mind.

Suddenly, a huge golden net appeared in front of him, almost covering an area of ​​more than ten feet, and it was located in front of Xiao Lin's flying weapon, which made his face suddenly darken.

Immediately afterwards, two sword lights shot up into the sky and slashed towards Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. After sighing helplessly, he pressed down the Seven Blade Slash under his feet and fell towards the ground. In the blink of an eye, he landed on a hillside, which was more than ten years away from Xiao Lin. A few feet away, three people were looking at Xiao Lin at the same time.

The three of them were two men and one woman. The young man among them was about 24 or 25 years old. He had fair skin and regular facial features, but his thin lips made his handsome appearance somewhat flawed. When he saw this person, Xiao Lin's eyes He shrunk violently and his face was covered with a layer of coldness. It turned out that this person turned out to be Qi Chang.
