Ji Taoist

It's actually a third-level Gu worm? !

You should know that the third-level Gu worm is not something that ordinary cultivators can refine. They have to learn the art of controlling Gu. This third-level knife mantis Gu is at least a Gu worm that can be refined by cultivators in the late foundation building stage or even the Jindan stage!

As for whether it is powerful or not?

In the battle between the magic cultivators and Gu cultivators in the Nanting Mountain area, this third-level knife mantis Gu was very famous. Even today, it is not a Gu worm that ordinary cultivators can see!

Yan Buji's face changed, and he took a deep breath: "I want to sell this knife mantis Gu at a discount."

The old master nodded, knowing that a cultivator in the Qi Refining stage was not qualified to own such a powerful Gu worm, so he called the shopkeeper Hua Fei.

Hua Fei bowed and smiled, "Fellow Daoist, please, let's go to the back to negotiate the price."

"Okay."

Yan Buji followed Hua Fei to the back hall. Hua Fei took the knife mantis Gu and looked at it carefully, frowning: "This knife mantis Gu is worth at least 8,000 spiritual stones, but because one of its wings is broken, it must be trained again. After the discount, I can only offer 4,500 spiritual stones."

"No problem." Yan Buji said directly, his face did not change.

He only knew the prices of various materials in the Qi Refining Stage, and he was not very clear about the prices above.

The key is that the prices of Gu worms and spiritual materials are different, and there are many criteria for judging. He really hasn't studied them carefully.

"Haha, fellow Daoist is quite direct. I wonder what your name is?"

"Please, Manager Hua, I am Ji Bu." Yan Buji said with a fist.

Hua Fei nodded and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Ji, it would be too complicated to settle with low-grade spirit stones. Here are forty medium-grade spirit stones, take a look."

While speaking, Hua Fei actually placed forty spirit stones on the table that were several times more abundant and rich than ordinary spirit stones. Yan Buji's eyes lit up.

These medium-grade spirit stones are much more useful than low-grade spirit stones. Although he can only get forty after the discount, the exchange rate of low-grade spirit stones for medium-grade spirit stones is not a fixed price of 1:100, and medium-grade spirit stones are not something that ordinary cultivators can get.

Yan Buji put away the middle-grade spirit stone and nodded: "Thank you, Manager Hua."

"You're welcome. Daoist Ji, do you want to continue to cut the stone today?"

Yan Buji was eager to try, but then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't know how many people will be watching me. I'll go out and avoid the limelight first before coming back."

"Hahaha, Daoist Ji is always welcome to come."

After Yan Buji left from the back door, the news that a cultivator in the early stage of Qi Refining had opened a third-level Gu worm in Zhenshizhai spread like wildfire, attracting a large number of cultivators.

Hua Fei stood next to the master and asked: "Mr. Zhao, is there anything unusual about the cultivator who opened the knife mantis Gu just now?"

Mr. Zhao shook his head: "Pure luck."

Hua Fei sighed: "It seems that it is not so easy to find the descendants of the master who cuts the stone here."

......

A few days later.

Yan Buji found a restaurant and stayed indoors. While avoiding the limelight, he concentrated on studying the cultivation methods of the Wang family cultivators.

Yan Buji had dabbled in it before, but now he saw that the method practiced by the Wang family cultivators was not the ordinary five-element method, but a very agile wind method!

"No wonder those Wang family cultivators were so fast and could surround Wang Jie, who was in the foundation-building period, in an instant. It turned out to be this method!" Yan Buji was a little surprised.

Although the wind method has nothing to do with the basic five-element method that he has not yet mastered, the "wind adjustment" secret technique recorded on it is very powerful!

This secret technique requires wind-like magic power to activate, which can give oneself great agility in a very short time, and can even slightly control the power of wind to accelerate.

If it can be practiced, combined with his lightning technique, it may be of great use.

Yan Buji tried to practice the wind adjustment secret technique, but it was still the same. It was difficult to get started without some time, let alone switch to wind-like methods.

"This wind-regulating secret technique should be the pre-secret technique of the 'escape technique' that can only be practiced by cultivators in the foundation-building stage, including lightning, which also has the shadow of the escape technique. Similar to this kind of attribute escape technique, it can ensure that the speed is increased while also having extremely strong agility. It would be great if I can practice it." Yan Buji thought about it.

Perhaps after the fifth level of Qi Refining, I can try to practice the Wang family's wind-based skills. First, practice the wind-regulating secret technique well. If it can be combined with lightning, it should be similar to make a low-profile version of the escape technique.

Yan Buji is not pursuing a strong combat power now. The combat power of the martial arts Xuan Gong can be seen with the naked eye. Even if it can withstand an ordinary attack from the black ghost who is almost in the Jindan stage, it can still be stimulated, indicating that its toughness and combat power must be stronger than the current magic.

Of course, there must be luck at that time. If the black ghost could be completely controlled by Li Daoren and exert his full strength, he would have slapped him to death.

Naturally, cultivation cannot be left behind. Now there are forty medium-grade spirit stones, and the low-grade spirit stones can be completely used for the time being.

In the following time, Yan Buji spent a whole month to absorb all the forty medium-grade spirit stones, barely reaching the second level of Qi Refining.

It can be seen why people love and hate this Nine Revolutions. Just based on Yan Buji's current mana, it must be roughly equivalent to the fourth level of Qi Refining for ordinary cultivators. However, the Nine Revolutions will become more and more difficult to practice as time goes by. He estimates that the spiritual energy required may not be as difficult as breaking through the foundation-building stage.

"Maybe my method of using spirit stones is wrong. Part of the spiritual energy absorbed from spirit stones will dissipate. I have to think of a way to efficiently use the spiritual energy of spirit stones." Yan Buji frowned.

Before, when he was practicing, he felt that he could not completely absorb the spiritual energy contained in the spirit stone. In most cases, he could only absorb about 50% of the spiritual energy from a low-grade spirit stone, and the remaining 50% was consumed in various links.

At first, he thought that his aptitude was too poor, but now he has a high-simulation mortal body, but the absorption efficiency has only increased by about 10%.

Perhaps for those cultivators with better aptitude, the speed and consumption rate of absorbing the spiritual energy of the spirit stone are not so high, but Yan Buji can't become a saint fetus of immortal aptitude out of thin air, right?

It's better to think of other ways.

There is always a way out, Yan Buji doesn't believe that other cultivators don't notice this.

"After a month, no one should pay attention to me, right? That day I sold the third-level knife mantis Gu in public, so they won't come to trouble me."

Yan Buji thought, walked out of the restaurant and came to the street.

The Ascension Conference is expected to be held for three years, and there are many cultivators coming and going.

Yan Buji walked around and stopped on the road. After deliberately talking about the issue of absorbing spiritual energy, he really got a lot of reactions from cultivators.

"The best way out for us independent cultivators is to find a way to join a force. Those forces have ways to convert and store the scattered spiritual energy, either by building a large spirit gathering array to reduce the loss of spiritual energy, or by using some special methods to improve the efficiency of absorbing spiritual energy."

"Why would they look down on us little people?"

"That being said, aren't there formation masters who sell formations in the city? Maybe they can find a way?"

"Don't worry, the formation masters make so many spiritual stones in a year, and you can buy a small spirit gathering array from them? It will cost thousands of spiritual stones and you can only use it a few times."

Spirit gathering array?

Yan Buji's eyes turned and he remembered the term.
