Dragon Martial Emperor-Chapter 117 – Demon wings
Chapter 117 Demon wings
Old White was an alchemy master and had taken a fancy to Liao Lele then he would surely teach her alchemy skills to concoct immortality pills.
So to say, did she have a talent for alchemy?
Long Yu thought for a moment but did not think too much.
The difficulty associated with concocting immortality pills or smelting battle weapons was very high. You must spend a lot of thoughts on it and dedication in learning was a must as well.
Right now, Long Yu was not going to let his mind go astray. He must focus all his mental and physical energy on cultivation; this was the only way to continuously enhance his cultivation level, in order to ensure his own safety in this vicious world!
Long Yu was temporarily not going to invest his precious time in learning alchemy.
He came out of the sovereign’s main shrine. He was now headed in the direction of the Elders Court to see if there were any good spirit level martial skills on its second floor. Anyway, he was also allowed to choose a spirit level battle weapon.
Although there were not many spirit level battle weapons in the Zhentian sect, he still got a chance to pick one for himself.
Since Wu Jianxin had been crippled by the sovereign and kicked out of Zhentian Sect, the control of Elders Court was handed over to Elder Yu.
Long Yu arrived at the Elders Court and saw Elder Yu sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. Lu Guanming was unconscious and lying next to him.
“Long Yu, I was waiting for you.”
Elder Yu opened his eyes that contained a hint of appreciation: “Come with me, just now sovereign has explained everything to me.”
With that, he led Long Yu all the way to the second floor.
Spirit level battle weapons and spirit level martial skills were stored on the second floor and in extremely tight security!
A disciple who had not yet stepped into the Zhenling realm was absolutely not allowed to set foot on the second floor of Elders Court.
Long Yu discovered that although Elder Court was only a large bamboo house, it was protected by a barrier based on the suppression principle of the world.
It could easily withstand the vigorous attacks from a powerhouse of Zhenling realm.
Elder Yu manipulated the coercion of Zhentian world influence and put his hand on the gate leading to the second floor. This neutralized the barrier on the gate and it opened on its own.
It was necessary to at least comprehend the world influence of Zhentian tactics to enter the second floor!
“You will find spirit level martial skills kept on the left side and spirit level battle weapons on the right side of the room. I’ll go now, select the ones you like the most.”
Elder Yu pointed to the left and right side of the room then smiled gently and immediately turned around to depart.
Long Yu looked towards the left and saw many stone tablets that were arranged neatly. There were martial skills engraved on each of the stone tablets.
Similarly, he saw a stock of battle weapons on the right side.
Since Elder Yu immediately left and left him alone here, it was apparent that now he held the maximum jurisdiction and could pick his favorite skill or battle weapon!
Certainly, the quantity was limited.
Long Yu was slightly more interested in battle weapons.
He took one step towards the stock of battle weapons and suddenly felt a burst of strong aura being released by the battle weapons.
“These are spirit level battle weapons, some are low-grade ones but some are of top grade as well.”
Long Yu glanced at the weapons. He saw more than 10 spirit level battle weapons in the stock, and among them, only two were of top grade.
One of these two top grade spirit level battle weapons was actually a sparkling white robe and seemed to have been woven using the feather of some beast. It also seemed like it would not only improve defense but could also enhance the speed of its owner.
A unique matrix law was usually carved on spirit level battle weapons and provided a special ability to the user.
For example, a matrix law to enhance speed was carved on this ‘White feather robe’ that was originally a defense type battle weapon.
Another top grade spirit level battle weapon was a sword.
Long Yu already had Nine Hidden Dragon Spear, so he was not at all interested in this sword.
“It seems like the only one I can choose is this white feather robe.”
Long Yu thought and walked toward it.
At present, his most lacking attribute was speed because his ‘dragon prance’ skill was not a suitable skill for combat. But, this white feather robe should enhance his speed considerably.
However, when he was about to pick it up, his vision suddenly fell upon a battle weapon adjacent to it!
This battle weapon was also made up from the feathers of some kind of demon beast, but it was actually a pair of wings covered with white feathers.
Wings?
Long Yu picked it up and noticed that this battle weapon fully extended up to thirty feet, but its matrix law engraving was destroyed, making it look like it was not a spirit level product at all.
The label marked on it said “Broken Demon Wings, spirit level battle weapon, best-grade”
Demon Wings?
Broken?
However, this was actually a best grade spirit level battle weapon!
He tried to communicate with it using his Xuan qi and discovered that its basic functionality was still working, but the matrix law engraving on it had been destroyed.
However, since it was a best grade spirit level battle weapon, its basic functionality was definitely going to be tyrannical!
“I should try its functions.”
Long Yu used his intention and stimulated the circulation of his Xuan qi into the wings. Suddenly, the white wings completely spread out and connected to his back using Xuan qi as a link.
“Flash move!”
Long Yu thought to test the extent of the upgrade in his speed and his figure suddenly blurred. The white wings moved and as a result of that, his speed increased to 3-4 times all of a sudden!
“Damn, its speed upgrade effect is something!”
Long Yu’s eyes shined.
In spite of being a damaged product, its effect was quite awesome.
This battle weapon could increase his speed 3-4 times. It was certainly a life-saver stuff!
Most importantly, there was a huge difference in consumption of Xuan qi in an agility type martial skill and in using a battle weapon. A small amount of Xuan qi was required to use a battle weapon, so choosing these demon wings was a wise decision over an agility type martial skill.
In a long term chasing process, these demon wings would last longer when compared to an agility type spirit level martial skill!
And since white feather robe was only a top grade spirit level battle weapon, with its functions mainly focused on defense, when it came to enhancement in speed, demon wings were certainly a better choice.
“Alright, Demon Wings, I choose you.”
Long Yu made the decision. He certainly wanted to take both Demon Wings and White feather robe, but he did not want to break the trust of Elder Yu.
Long Yu retracted his Xuan qi and the demon wings fell on his hands. Its structure was very soft and the basic idea of the manufacturer was to make it less cumbersome to carry around. It could be easily folded and concealed in one’s bosom.
Whenever there was a need to use it, he would simply need to stimulate it using Xuan qi and the white wings would automatically extend on both sides, while being simultaneously attached to his back using Xuan qi as a link.
“Time to choose a spirit level martial skill.”
Long Yu thought then went to the other side of the room.
He was a total of 22 stone tablets in the stock. Long Yu glanced at all of them and found that the worthwhile spirit level skills were at most of the top grade.
There wasn’t a single best grade spirit level martial skill among them.
Long Yu saw stone tablets of Tianwei sword tactics, the soul fist, but these were low grade spirit level skills. In fact, there were altogether 18 low grade spirit level skills in stock.
With only 4 middle grade spirit level skills and 2 top grade spirit level skills.
From the annotations on the stone tablets, it could be seen that practicing even a low grade spirit level martial skill was very difficult. A cultivator would have to go through countless suffering and hardships to reach even its Xiaocheng level!
(Mystique – Beginner level<Xiaocheng level<Dacheng level<Peak level<Perfection level)
“No wonder Brother Zong and other senior disciples have mostly practiced low-grade spirit level skills.”
Long Yu wasn’t particularly interested in any of the spirit level skills.
He originally wanted to select an agility type spirit level skill, but now he had demon wings. So temporarily, he was not in a rush to get one.
Practicing any skill required time and Long Yu precisely lacked time the most!
He also needed to spend a lot of time to master ‘Awakening Palm Samsara’, the second skill of Nine Hidden Dragon Fist. By mastering this skill, his strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
And in order to master the spear skill ‘kill then thousand people’ he needed to kill people and accumulate killing intention.
“It is more difficult to practice Awakening palm samsara than any other skill.”
Long Yu was mentally prepared and decided that other martial skills were really not necessary.
Then he carefully observed the respective functionalities of those martial skills as explained on the tablets. His motive was to remember these effects and devise counter strategies for future battles.
He spent an afternoon on this.
In the evening, he came down and met Elder Yu. He cupped his fists and said: “Elder Yu, I want to practice in a peaceful place, where should I go to find such a place?”
“Old White’s place is not good enough?”
Elder Yu asked in a surprised manner.
“Well……”
Long Yu scratched his head and did not know what to say.
He really did not want to go back to Old White’s place. One reason was that he did not want to bother Old White, and secondly, Liao Lele seemed in quite a bad mood and he did not want any trouble, so it was better to stay away from her or the time being!
Elder Yu did not pursue this matter. He gently smiled and said: “Then go to the bamboo grove. It’s located to the back side of Elder Court, right behind the mountain. Your Brother Bu is also practicing there.”
“Thanks a lot, Elder Yu.”
Long Yu nodded then turned around and left. He was headed towards the bamboo grove behind the mountain.
The bamboo grove was actually situated in a fairly open place and was surrounded by high cliffs. At first glance, it seemed like an imitation of a fairyland.
This bamboo grove was actually a practice ground for Zhenling realm experts! He several bamboo huts located on the sides and they gave temporary residence to Zhenling level disciples and elders who would often come here to practice.
When Long Yu arrived here, he felt a strong presence of Zhenling aura.
He heard a sound of battle that was going on not far from the bamboo grove!
