Immortal cultivators in this world can understand the Tao, and then obtain a method from the Tao, and seek a technique from the method.
Lin Chen wasn't sure what the great road in this world was, but according to his estimation, it should be something similar to the Riemann Hypothesis and quantum physics in the previous life, which looked very scary.
Anyway, it is very difficult, but once you master it, you will understand the whole world.
As for Dharma, it refers to the knowledge of cultivation techniques, alchemy basics, Feng Shui introduction, etc., which are summative and can be used to expand research.
As for magic, it is the method used by monks to use spiritual energy. For example, elixir recipes, spiritual weapon making methods... and the most critical method of protecting the Tao.
The art of protecting the Tao has different names and abilities depending on the realm.
For example, the technique of protecting the Tao during the Qi refining period is called [Magic]. Because during the Qi refining period, you cannot mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and can only use the true energy in your own body to attack. The power and means are limited, so it is called a trick.
When the foundation building period comes, the monk is born with [Spiritual Sense], which can forcibly mobilize the spiritual energy of the world and the world. The powerful methods are stronger and more diverse, so it is called [Spiritual Art].
As for the golden elixir period? According to the records of the sect's classics, when you reach the golden elixir stage, you need to turn all your methods and thoughts during cultivation into a fundamental technique, and derive countless methods from this.
It is not only used for killing and protecting the Tao, but also for self-cultivation. More importantly, according to the speculations of the ancestors, the monks can even use it to understand the hidden Tao!
And this fundamental technique is called [spell]!
However, summing up one's own practice from a high-level perspective and achieving the unity of all things, this is the ability possessed by the monks in the Golden Core Stage. Lin Chen is still too far away from this. What he is more concerned about now is whether he can use it in his own hands. The improved trick sold for a good price.
If we say that in the shops in the world of cultivating immortals, the business that can make a steady profit without losing any money is not the array plate, nor the talisman, nor the elixir, but the secret technique!
Because most monks cannot afford formation disks, no matter how much talismans are squeezed, labor costs are incurred, special talismans need to increase in price, and elixirs and spiritual weapons are even more deceptive. If you are lucky, you will naturally make a lot of money, but if you are unlucky, A lot of elixirs and spiritual materials have been invested, but if the refining fails in the end, it will be a loss of blood!
But the secret technique is different. As long as the original copy is purchased initially, the purchase of the Monk Gaiden is restricted by special restrictions.
Then, the store can sell it repeatedly and obtain a steady stream of profits!
Not to mention that Lin Chen's improved magic template has never appeared on the market. It has special value and can bring huge benefits!
Not only that, Baibaolou can also use this improved trick to form its own signature and establish unique characteristics, thereby improving its competitiveness and gaining more fame in the market!
And reputation in the market is directly linked to profits!
Lin Chen smiled slightly, and when he saw the other party's words and actions, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart. It seemed that this improved magic template was far more valuable than he imagined.
Fang Mingyuan picked up the jade slip and carefully read some of the contents visible in it. Only then did he realize his gaffe, and Lin Chen saw many falsehoods, which was greatly detrimental to subsequent price reductions.
But at this time, he was more concerned about another issue. He looked at Lin Chen with bright eyes, and there was a hint of urgency in his tone: "I wonder if this improved trick was done by fellow Taoist?"
He cares more about people who can improve than this improved trick.
Because in the world of immortality, most people rarely think about the nature of cultivation for the sake of resources, promotion, and longevity. They only practice step by step, let alone improve the methods and techniques.
On the one hand, this is due to the inertia of thinking, and on the other hand, it lies in one's own understanding.
Ordinary people don't even know how long it takes to learn various tricks and spiritual arts, let alone integrate them, improve them and create them.
The improved unique tricks not only possess the power that is different from ordinary tricks, but can even become the foundation for the inheritance of a family or even a sect!
Therefore, those who can achieve this step are enough to become guests of major families and sects!
"Manager Fang, stop joking." Lin Chen said with a wry smile, "If Zhang had such ability, he would have become a guest of Qingyun Sect long ago, why would he come here?"
"This is just what I obtained from a senior's cave. If I didn't urgently need a defensive spiritual weapon, I wouldn't even take it out."
This trick was naturally improved by Lin Chen, but of course he would not admit it.
Although if he exposes himself, he may become a guest of the major forces and enjoy abundant resources for cultivating immortals, but he may also be artificially imprisoned and researched exclusively for them.
Lin Chen is not that stupid to leave the choice to others and place his own safety on the kindness of others.
Therefore, he has never had any thoughts of exposing himself from the beginning to the present.
If he hadn't deduced the possibility of war and the fact that the research on version 3.0 of Nourishing Soul Incense urgently needed a lot of resources, which was related to the future, he would not have taken this risk.
Although this move also carries risks, Lin Chen also knows in his heart that he does not have a system or magical weapon to produce resources on his own, so he can only obtain them by himself. In order to go further, he has to take risks and have to go Fight!
Lin Chen has never been the kind of person who talks about being stubborn all day long. In his opinion, Gou is just trying to hide his advantage better, but if he finds an opportunity where the benefits outweigh the risks, then he will definitely fight for it!
Besides, he is not without a plan.
'I only came up with improved tricks, not creativity, so as not to attract the attention of the foundation-building monks. As for the monks in the Qi Refining Stage, even if I can't defeat them, I can still escape...'
Regarding the situation after coming up with the improved magic trick, it is not like Lin Chen has not made the worst budget!
"Is that so?" Fang Mingyuan stared at Lin Chen closely, as if he wanted to see something on his face. But the other person's expression was so real that it made him a little unpredictable.
Did the other party really just get it by coincidence?
"Shopkeeper Fang, since we are doing business, as long as we make some profit, it is fine. The source is not important, right?" Lin Chen asked in return.
"Fellow Taoist is right." Seeing that he could not get any useful information, Fang Mingyuan could only nod in agreement.
"However, although it is an improved trick, it still needs to be tested for its power. I wonder if you are willing to test it with us?" Fang Mingyuan said.
"Of course." Lin Chen nodded.
Afterwards, Fang Mingyuan took his fingerprints and seemed to be communicating. After a while, a middle-aged man opened the door and walked in.
Um?
Lin Chen's eyes moved and he looked at the other party. He has a strong back, a stern face, and a fierce aura exuding from his whole body. His eyes, in particular, were indescribably sharp.
"This is our guard captain of Baibao Tower - Wang Ping." Fang Mingyuan explained with a smile, "We also ask fellow Daoist Zhang to cooperate with us in testing this new and improved trick."
Lin Chen glanced at him, nodded and said, "Okay."
"This is our guest, fellow Taoist Zhang Ping. I hope you can cooperate with us in this magic test."
Wang Ping looked at Lin Chen indifferently and nodded: "Of course."
Since there is no testing venue in Baibao Building, the three of them can only go to specific places in Fang City for testing.
Inside the test site.
"Next, please ask fellow Taoist to use this trick on Wang Ping." After arriving at the venue, Fang Mingyuan said.
"Not shooting?" Lin Chen glanced at him.
"This trick is for actual combat." Fang Mingyuan replied.
Lin Chen understood what he meant. Target shooting can only test the power of the trick, but cannot judge its value in actual combat.
Lin Chen looked at Wang Ping, who was standing more than ten meters away, with a small yellow shield surrounding him. It was an ordinary defensive weapon that matched ordinary monks.
'I see. Should we judge the value of this trick based on the defense and dodge abilities of ordinary monks? 'This thought flashed through Lin Chen's mind.
"In that case, it's just as Manager Fang said." Lin Chen smiled brightly.
Then Lin Chen suddenly raised his right hand, and his whole temperament instantly changed drastically, and his whole body exuded a fierce aura!
Not far away, Wang Ping's pupils shrank. In his perception, Lin Chen seemed to have instantly transformed from a harmless little white rabbit into a ferocious tiger that preys on people!
"Condensation!" Lin Chen spit out a syllable coldly, and then, the true energy in his body surged, forming a spear directly in front of him!
The spear was golden in color, with lifelike fiery red lines spreading across its body. The hot and sharp aura emitted, directly distorting the surrounding air!
"Go!" Lin Chen glanced at Wang Ping, and then directly controlled the golden gun to fly towards Zhang Ping.
'Is this, Golden Spear Technique? Wang Ping was stunned.
The Golden Spear Technique is a spiritual technique with high attack power during the Qi Refining Stage. However, due to its slow flying speed, it is easy to be avoided, so it has always been used only when the forces are fighting.
'Where is this spiritual improvement? Could it be...' Before Wang Ping had time to finish thinking, he saw the golden gun in front of him suddenly exploded!
Raging flames surged forward, and a bright golden light flashed past!
not good!
Wang Ping's expression changed, his muscles all over his body tensed up, and he manipulated the shield with an impressive move!
boom!
With one blow, Wang Ping flew out. Before he could stand upright, the flames immediately rushed in and completely covered him!
"Okay!" Fang Mingyuan on the side looked brightly, not caring about Wang Ping's situation at all, but instead cheered loudly.
Obviously, he was more concerned about the power of this trick.
"Ahem!" The flames dissipated and a figure walked out.
Wang Ping wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, raised the shield and looked at the obvious cracks on it, feeling a little wary when he spoke.
"This...the attack power and speed of this spiritual technique have surpassed that of the Golden Spear Technique. If you are not caught off guard, you will definitely suffer a big loss."
"However, the aiming of this spiritual technique requires extremely high predictability. At the same time, if it is approached, it will not have a chance to be used." Wang Ping analyzed.
"Even so, its power should not be underestimated, and fellow Taoist Wang Ping seems to have forgotten something." Lin Chen said with a slight smile, "Even if the opponent blocks this attack, the covering flames are enough to interrupt the enemy's response. Next, whether it is an escape or a sneak attack, it will create enough opportunities, right?"
"That's right." Wang Ping was silent for a moment and said.
"It's indeed good." Fang Mingyuan chuckled and changed his tone, "Although this trick is powerful, it also has many limitations. I wonder what price you want?"
"Then let's see if Shopkeeper Fang's offer is interesting enough." Lin Chen smiled softly.
Usually these merchants rip off customers, but now that there is a rare opportunity, Lin Chen would feel sorry for his conscience if he didn't take the opportunity to rip off the other party!
