I Cultivate Longevity in the Cultivation Realm-Chapter 47: Sword Control Technique and Derivation Technique

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Sword Control Technique and Derivation Technique

"Hexagonal Pavilion?"

Zhou Changwang was taken aback. Isn’t this where Qian Xiaoyue works?

Moreover, he knew that this Hexagonal Pavilion was an enterprise owned by a business alliance that spans several marketplaces. It housed an abundance of treasures, not only various grades and functions of magical artifacts, spirit pills, and talismans, but also incenses, spirit plant seeds, puppets, magic spells, and even array-related magical artifacts and various legacies...

It basically met Zhou Changwang’s objective.

After all, he was just a low-tier cultivator, his demands were not high.

So without hesitation, he stepped right in.

"Welcome, Daoist friend, to the shop. I am Xiaowei. May I know what you are looking for?"

As soon as he stepped into the shop, a graceful female cultivator approached him with a bright smile and asked.

"Just looking around."

Zhou Changwang nodded slightly, and then he caught a whiff of a subtle fragrance, feeling a sense of relaxation throughout his body, even his spirit was slightly uplifted.

"Is this incense?"

Zhou Changwang couldn’t help but ask.

"Yes, we have Calm Spirit Incense burning in the store at all times.

This is to ensure our customers have a pleasant shopping experience.

Even if you don’t buy anything, you can leave with a happy mood."

The female cultivator named Xiaowei responded softly, showing no disdain for Zhou Changwang being a low-tier cultivator and his somewhat rustic appearance. She gracefully walked to a tea table, poured a cup of tea, handed it over, and said, "Daoist friend, this is Centennial Black Spirit Tea from Red Bo Mountain, please taste it."

"Thank you!"

Zhou Changwang expressed his gratitude and carefully took a sip.

The tea was sweet on the tongue, and most importantly, it contained a mild spiritual energy, relieving even the stress he felt from encountering Wang Chang.

"Good tea."

Zhou Changwang praised it, enjoying it like someone not accustomed to such delicacies.

Indeed, this tea was sweeter and more flavorful than any tea he had tasted in his previous life, perhaps only comparable to the ten-thousands-per-tael Ancient Tree Mother Tea.

Of course, in the cultivation realm, centennial spirit tea is common, millennium spirit teas and ten-thousand-year-old ancient teas are not rare.

There’s even rumored to be Enlightenment Spirit Tea...

"Could I have another cup?"

After finishing the tea, Zhou Changwang relished the aftertaste and asked.

"Uh..."

Even with Xiaowei’s extensive service experience, her face slightly stiffened, but she politely said, "Certainly."

Then poured him another cup.

Zhou Changwang enjoyed another sip, after savoring it for a while, he spoke up, "I wonder if you have protective spells or agility movement techniques here?"

"Of course we do.

We have simple ones like Protective Body Technique, Earth Spirit Shield, Water Spirit Shield, and slightly better ones like Flowing Cloud Water Curtain, Earth Wall Technique, Green Wood Vine Technique... As for agility movement techniques, we have Light Body Skill, Soaring Technique, Wave Treading Technique, Rapid Movement Technique... Which ones are you interested in?"

Xiaowei quickly introduced.

"What’s the price for each?"

Zhou Changwang pondered for a moment, then asked.

"Protective Body Technique is five Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, Earth Spirit Shield and Water Spirit Shield are slightly more expensive, seven Lower-Grade Spirit Stones. As for Flowing Cloud Water Curtain, Earth Wall Technique, and Green Wood Vine Technique, they are considered mid-tier techniques and are much pricier, around thirty to forty Lower-Grade Spirit Stones each.

Light Body Skill is also five Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, Soaring Technique is thirty-seven, Wave Treading Technique is twenty-five, Rapid Movement Technique is thirty-two..."

Xiaowei responded calmly without hesitation.

"I’ll choose Protective Body Technique and Light Body Skill."

Zhou Changwang nodded lightly, quickly making his decision.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to choose other more advanced techniques, especially Flowing Cloud Water Curtain, which he had heard so much about. It is the best defensive technique for low-tier cultivators. Once deployed, it can form a transparent water curtain in front, rotating freely like flowing water. It not only defends against various attacks but also naturally reduces force.

As for Green Wood Vine Technique, it is also powerful, but it requires Green Wood Vine Seeds to cast. Once the technique is completed, it can instantly grow the seeds to their zenith, forming a Wood Vine Shield with formidable defense.

However, what he needed to prioritize was his own safety. Moreover, he didn’t know when danger would arise, and realized he may not have much time to study spells and raise his skill level, so he opted for the basic Protective Body Technique and Light Body Skill. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Perhaps their power and effectiveness are not as great as other techniques, but they are cheap and easy to cultivate.

"Alright!"

Xiaowei maintained a polite smile.

Immediately after, Zhou Changwang selected a few more spells and some spirit talismans.

The spells were Sound Insulation Technique, Sword Control Technique, Derivation Technique.

The Sound Insulation Technique was inexpensive, two Lower-Grade Spirit Stones. The Sword Control Technique was meant to control his dharma artifact flying sword, as it was too strenuous for low-tier cultivators to wield magical artifacts. With Sword Control Technique, he could freely control the artifact to attack and retrieve, a convenience.

Even if he reached the Qi Cultivation Stage Fourth Layer and gained spiritual sense, the Sword Control Technique would assist him in better controlling the flying sword, making it more effortless.

However, the technique was quite costly, eighty Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, yet he felt it was necessary, so he gritted his teeth and purchased it.

The last one, Derivation Technique, was a spur-of-the-moment purchase. According to Xiaowei, it is a calculating technique, allowing one to avoid harm by predicting through the technique. In perilous situations, it could guide one to a relatively safer path.

He thought this technique could prove useful in critical moments, and purchased it for fifteen Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

As for spirit talismans, they were Speed Talisman, Golden Shield Talisman, and Profound Ice Arrow Rain Talisman.

Zhou Changwang didn’t skimp on talismans either, choosing those crafted by renowned talisman makers, with considerable power.

The Speed Talisman cost three Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, the Golden Shield Talisman five Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, and the most expensive one, Profound Ice Arrow Rain Talisman, twelve Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

But with these three talismans in hand, he felt his safety was somewhat assured.

Originally, he also wanted to get a defensive dharma robe, especially one named Lightweight Daoist Robe, which tempted him. It not only bestowed light agility, enabling swift movement, but when infused with spiritual power, could activate a miniature array on the robe, forming a Spirit Light Shield naturally, comparable to the Protective True Qi of Innate Realm martial artists, enough to withstand one or two low-tier techniques.

Yet Xiaowei’s quote deterred him.

A steep price of six hundred Lower-Grade Spirit Stones... He felt Golden Shield Talisman was sufficient; more would be a waste.

As for magical artifacts, he already owned a dharma artifact flying sword. Spirit pills were temporarily off the table, and puppets were not his forte... so he decided to buy a pack of Calm Spirit Incense instead.

A pack contained twenty sticks, each burning for half an hour. Having experienced it in the Hexagonal Pavilion and finding it beneficial for cultivation, he decided to purchase it.

Ten Lower-Grade Spirit Stones, equivalent to fifty Broken Spirit per stick.
