Chapter 171: How to Get Stronger
...... As for the four purgatory red lotus seeds, Lei Dong has not sold them for the time being. After all, this thing can be stored for a long time, unlike the heart washing fruit, which is said to be unable to store it for even ten years.
With a large amount of assets, Lei Dong began to think about how to improve his strength. If you use spirit stones directly, you can't kill people, and it's better to turn them into actual combat power as early as possible. Heavenly Dao City was originally the center of influence within the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and within its scope, all sects and factions would open branches here, or do some commercial trading. The population of the entire city is impressively one million. Of course, more than ninety percent of them are mortals without spiritual roots. But the mortals of Heavenly Dao City were not all really ordinary people who didn't know anything about the Immortal Cultivation Realm. The vast majority of them were descendants or family members of the Heavenly Dao Alliance. Over time, it has multiplied in this Heavenly Dao City until now. It can be seen from this that Heavenly Dao City is an extremely special city, where mortals and immortal cultivators live together. But even if more than ninety percent of the mortals were removed, the number of immortal cultivators in Heavenly Dao City had reached an extremely terrifying number, although more than half of them were casual cultivators, or members of small families. Moreover, this is still a permanent population, and I don't know how many mobile immortal cultivators patronize it every year.
These people, they use their own way to live in the Heavenly Dao City, make money, socialize, and cultivate.
Due to the large number of immortal cultivators in Heavenly Dao City. Even some forces outside the Heavenly Dao Alliance will open some shops here, just according to the size of the strength. The size and location of the shops are different. For example, in the Yin Sha Sect, in the Heavenly Dao City, there is a rudder stationed outside, maybe to show strength or something. The helmsman here is a Jindan ancestor-level figure.
In addition to the establishment of a foreign rudder here, the Yin Sha Sect also has a large number of industries. The business is said to be quite prosperous, and it can earn a large amount of spirit stones for the Yin Sha Sect every year, or help the Yin Sha Sect buy a lot of resource materials.
Lei Dong did business this time, and he did not look for the property of the Yin Sha Sect, although with his identity, he would get a great discount. The reason is also very simple, he still wants to try not to reveal his true wealth and power. After all, Huang Fuce was in the Yin Demon Sect, and he had been mixing for longer than himself. What I sold here and what I bought. Even if there was even the slightest possibility that it would reach Huangfuce's ears, Lei Dong was unwilling to do this.
used makeup to hide his appearance. He was wrapped in a black robe, and almost all his faces were hidden under the black robe. And Qi Feifei also dressed up in disguise and became a masked lady like a lady, shopping with Lei Dong. Appearance can be disguised, but strength is difficult to control. Lei Dong had heard of some special breath collection methods, which could hide the aura sense of his cultivation level. So far, though, he hasn't studied these special techniques.
Exercises, spiritual weapons, and the best elixir, and even, Lei Dong also bought targets and put them on some things like thunder bullets.
All of this has only one purpose, and that is to be able to improve one's combat ability, or survivability. Exercises are extremely difficult to find, although there are occasionally some exercises on the market that have been handed down from ancient times, or who and whose ancestors have passed them down. But in the final analysis, it would be too difficult for these exercises to surpass those of the Yin Sha Sect. Of course, Lei Dong did not want to force the exercises to surpass the power of those exercises of the Yin Sha Sect. But the problem is that even then, it's extremely difficult to find. I've seen a lot of exercises in a row, but it's either unbelievable, or it's too powerful. In desperation, Lei Dong quickly gave up.
The spirit weapon is one of the main targets of Thunder Motion. Now he has three layers in the foundation building period, and in the sense of the hierarchy, he is still a monk in the early stage of foundation building. Therefore, the spirit weapon is his best choice, a good high-grade spirit weapon, enough to support him to use the Jindan period. If there is a chance to obtain the best spiritual weapon, even the golden pill period can be used as a magic weapon. Just like Lei Dong is now in the foundation building period, the main attack, but it still uses the Wheel of Annihilation. Because in terms of pure power, it is not inferior to ordinary high-grade spiritual weapons. Unless you can get the best attack spirit weapon, there is no need for Lei Dong to exchange it at all.
After visiting for a long time, Lei Dong also has a little understanding of the market of spiritual weapons. I won't talk about it anymore, unless I am so poor that I can't help it, ordinary monks in the foundation building period will not choose a low-grade spiritual weapon. After all, a foundation building stage cultivator, even if they are casual cultivators, if they want to make some money, it is far easier than a Qi refining stage cultivator. They are generally willing to save more time and spirit stones, and buy medium-grade spirit weapons at one time, which can be regarded as a one-step process. The price of medium-grade spiritual weapons is not too cheap, even if it is worse, it will cost ten thousand spirit stones, and the slightly better ones will cost fifty or sixty thousand seventy or eighty thousand.
However, the purchase of high-grade spiritual weapons is called the real cost of money. Not only is it expensive, but it's also very rare. Only in some large-scale auctions will there be some high-grade spiritual weapons. But its value often makes a very wealthy monk in the foundation building period bankrupt. As for the best spiritual weapon, it really belongs to something that can be encountered but not sought. Ordinary monks in the foundation building period are unlikely to possess the best spiritual weapons in their entire lives. Just like Lei Dong's master, he will collect two or three pieces of the best magic weapon, and as for the best spiritual weapon, Lei Dong estimates that he may not have a collection.
The target of the thunder was not placed on the high-grade spiritual weapon. A high-grade spiritual weapon, costing hundreds of thousands of spirit stones, there is always a chance to buy it. His mind was very wild, so he wanted to get a superb spiritual weapon. Using various disguised identities, Lei Dong searched in Tiandao City for several days, and visited some well-known shops.
It's a pity that in those big shops with great backstage power, it is a piece or two of the high-grade spiritual weapons that are used as the treasures of the town store. The best spiritual weapon, rare and rare to a certain extent. However, Lei Dong can also be regarded as a detective, and occasionally in large-scale auctions, it will be used as the best spiritual weapon for the finale auction. Depending on its effect, it is usually between 1.2 million and 2.5 million spirits.
This is a very terrifying number, and even an ordinary Jindan period monk has a very hard time coming up with so much spare money. Moreover, the best spiritual weapon, although it is said that it can be used in the Jindan period, does not need to be eliminated. But a true Jindan stage monk, unless there is so much money that there is nowhere to spend it, it is generally unlikely that he will spend so much money to buy a superb spiritual weapon for his own use. After all, if you spend the same amount of money to buy a magic weapon suitable for the use of Jindan monks, its effect and power will definitely exceed that of that superb spiritual weapon. The reason why the best spiritual artifact is so valuable is that it is rare and collectible. Second, if the foundation building monk takes a superb spiritual weapon, his strength will increase a lot.
A Jindan monk who would be willing to spend such a huge amount of money to buy the best spiritual weapon, even if he does not belong to the ordinary Jindan monk class, can inherit the mantle and buy it for the sake of being outstanding in a certain family.
However, the hard work paid off. A few days later, Lei Dong finally appeared as one of the finale treasures at the auction held by Wanbao Pavilion a month later. But what kind of superb spiritual weapon it is, it is impossible to get information.
Lei Dong pondered for a while, and decided to wait for a month, ready to see if he could auction that superb spiritual weapon in that auction. So he continued to stay in the clean courtyard where the Heavenly Dao Alliance entertained VIPs, meditating and refining qi every day, using a lot of small five element pills left on his body, as well as high-grade spirit stones. Qi Feifei is also ready to accompany Lei Dong to participate in this auction before leaving. But her qualifications are not bad, and her cultivation is not bad for this month, so she helped Lei Dong everywhere to find out the news.
Every once in a while, they will tell Lei Dong some recent developments. For example, Yutai Bingyun's injuries are very serious, and they haven't improved yet, and it doesn't look like it's going to take a year, and she doesn't want to heal or anything. He also said that Li Hun Tian had passed the inner demon and came out of the inner demon hall. He also said that the Heavenly Dao Alliance had already learned about the causes and consequences of some things from Tantai Bingyun, and felt that the matter was very important, so it decided to suppress the matter for the time being. For the time being, Wang Hui still did not come out in the Heart Demon Palace. What else did Xi Donglai say, there seems to be no sign of breaking the heart demon, maybe he will hang in the heart demon hall.
Some of her news is very secretive. It made Lei Dong feel a little emotional, a person with such good qualifications, but he didn't put all his mind on cultivation. For exploring gossip news, there is quite a set. Of course, it is estimated that this is also related to her background, and her charm does not have much effect on herself. But for others, it's very useful. And she is the top disciple of the eight top sects, and she can't be guarded against when she hears the news.
Even, she already knew what kind of finale things would appear in that auction. This made Lei Dong speechless, but after knowing that the best spirit weapon was a defensive spirit weapon, Lei Dong was even more determined to get his hands on it. With a top-grade defensive spirit weapon, Lei Dong believed that his combat and survivability abilities could be improved like never before.
The time has come soon. Lei Dong and Qi Feifei were both dressed up in disguise and quietly appeared in that auction, after paying the qualification fee of five thousand spirits. I got a small magic weapon for free, this magic weapon is a gray cloak, and when worn on the body, it will make people look vague and uncertain. Moreover, this thing can also isolate the detection of divine thoughts to a certain extent.
The ticket qualification fee alone made Lei Dong feel that this Wanbao Pavilion really had some doorways. That's five thousand spirit stones alone, and this money alone is enough to make them a lot of money. Lei Dong walked into the auction hall, swept his eyes, and found that there were already three percent of the seats in the outfield. But each of them wore a set of gray cloaks that were exactly the same as Lei Dong's.
