The Central Empire, its name is its signature, the place of great prosperity that warriors all over the world yearn for.
Its status in the hearts of warriors is like the Western Bliss in the hearts of Buddhists. Cao An stopped with his feet in front of the books. The covers of the books were all dyed with Jueshen wax, a kind of wax oil that is specially used to isolate the exploration of spiritual thoughts. It was taken from There is a strange fish in the depths of the Black Sea. It is not too rare, so the taste is filled with a strange fishy smell.
[Thirteen Styles of the Hidden Sword], [Wind and Thunder Sword Technique], [Hunyuan Yiqigong]...
It's not like he's selling martial arts secrets, but more like he's wholesale. There are many names, and each technique has several volumes of rubbings. Cao An noticed a label on the technique: low-level, intermediate, high-level. The standards for the four levels of Master and Master are printed on different exercises.
"What does it mean?"
The man raised his head and showed a faint smile, "This question is worth one tael of silver. This is Da Yin. Unless you meet another person from the Central Empire, and he needs to be an authentic disciple of the Mingmen Sect, otherwise, you won't How about maybe getting an accurate answer?”
"Chang Qing, give it to him!"
The man took the silver, turned over his sleeves, and put it into his body, "Kung Fu also has levels, just like the levels of treasure weapons, but the level of skills is not so closely related to strength. What realm are you in, and what level of practice are you in? Kung Fu determines what kind of foundation you have laid in this realm."
"So, you may not understand. Let me put it another way. A martial artist may have to practice seven or eight or even more techniques in his life. At this time, assuming that he practiced advanced techniques during the three scenes, it means that he has laid down The foundation of the advanced three sceneries."
"And some people may practice one skill throughout their lives. This skill is at the master level, but it does not mean that they have laid a master-level foundation. The master-level skill is just an overall balanced assessment, specific to each individual The foundations that can be laid are different in each scene. A true master-level technique will mark the level of the foundation that can be laid in each scene at the starting point."
"This is the technique of the Central Empire. Any technique that is not accurately marked will not be recognized by the imperial court, and almost no one will practice it."
Cao An's heart moved slightly, "Kung Fu is practiced by people. The same Kung Fu must be practiced by different people and have different foundations, right? In this case, it may be difficult to achieve consistency."
"The foundation is the foundation, and the strength is the strength. The foundation is the magical power crystal that is bred according to the stimulation of the skills. Although you can't see it, it actually exists in your body. When you reach the realm of magical power, you You will find it. With it, you can practice and comprehend magical powers, otherwise you will not be able to continue on the path of martial arts."
Cao An thought of something, "The spiritual root of an immortal cultivator?"
The man was stunned for a moment, "I didn't expect that in a place like this, you can actually come into contact with immortal cultivators. Yes, it's the best and most appropriate explanation if you can understand it this way. But for us martial artists, that's not called The spiritual root, which is called the martial vein, brings together all the magical power crystals to form the martial vein. At this time, the quality of the foundation corresponds to the quality of the martial vein, which directly affects the magical powers that a martial artist can practice."
An inexplicable anger surged in Cao An's heart. This information was actually hidden. This was equivalent to making a joke to the warriors in the world. When you work hard all the way and reach the magical realm, you merge your martial veins and find yourself You can’t practice great supernatural powers at all. Are you kidding me?
"Is it worth spending a tael of silver? Here is a piece of information for you. Martial veins can only determine the strength of magical powers. It will not prevent a martial artist from continuing to practice upward, nor will it affect a martial artist's cultivation speed. It is equivalent to the strength of martial arts. Weakness, strength, or weakness only determine how powerful your magical power can be as a human being."
"Thanks for letting me know. I haven't asked yet. How many levels are there in this technique?"
"As far as I know, the low, middle and high grades are the lower three grades and correspond to the same third grade foundation. Master, Perfect and Innate are the upper three grades and correspond to the upper third grade foundation. The only ones currently known are these six grades. I don’t know if there are more people above the third level. You have to know that even we, the warriors of the Central Empire, may not know all the information. The real secrets are in the hands of those major cultivators, and there is almost no leakage. Possibility." The man said, sighing.
"You have been taught, what do you call me, senior?"
"You're welcome, I'm just a hawker. My surname is Song and my name is Changzu. But if you guys like it, don't read these techniques. If you plan to go to the Central Empire in the future, go and have a look there. Some martial arts knowledge, Empire You can browse through the scenery at will, pick out any book you like, and clearly mark the price, so you don’t have to be deceived."
Cao An nodded and walked aside as he was told. He really didn't need the skills. This kind of confidence came from his bones. Even after knowing that the level of the skills would affect the strength of his future realm, he still had confidence in his own skills. There is no doubt about the law.
Song Changzu showed a pleased smile, obviously very pleased with Cao An's obedience.
"Senior, we, we meet again."
Cao An raised his eyes and said, "Yeah."
It's Jiang Fan again. Maybe he also feels that it's a bit presumptuous for him to meet Cao An again and again. The market is so big and the two of them are wandering around. It's a bit embarrassing to actually arrive at the same place twice. If he was the first If he arrives, then he will most likely think that Cao An has been following him.
Referring to others, he was also worried that Cao An had such speculations. In fact, he did not follow Cao An, but just wandered around. Today, senior sister Han Yingying and third senior brother He Suoqi went to visit an old friend of an elder in the sect. Disciples like him , naturally he was not invited, so he got used to it, so he simply came to the trade fair by himself.
Just now, when he saw Cao An walking this way, he deliberately walked the opposite way, but the market was so big, and even after wandering around, they still came together and stopped in front of the same stall.
"Have you got those puppets?"
"Ah? Oh, I got it, but the kid is shy and has only enough money to buy two of them. If you are interested, senior, you can go back and buy the remaining ones. When I left, no one had picked them away. of."
Cao An shook his head, "Treat them well."
Jiang Fan glanced at Cao An strangely, and then he picked out a thin book among the exercises, called [Tongxuan Jin]. Cao An glanced at it, and the note on it was perfect level.
"Seller, how much is this?" Cao An picked up a book of imperial scenery and asked,
"Two taels of silver, that's the only copy, so it's cheap for you."
"Okay, that's it, let's go!" After Cao An finished speaking, Chang Qing offered him two taels of silver with a respectful attitude. When he just bought the information, Song Changzu didn't use the barrier to shield himself and included himself in the barrier. In fact, for this alone, he could bear his respect.
For this kind of information, let alone two taels of silver, even if it is more, some people are willing to give it. The prerequisite is whether it is sold to the right person.
After Cao An left, Jiang Fan also bought the perfect level skill [Tongxuan Jin] in his hand. He didn't have that much money to buy this level of skill, even if it was sold in bulk. It is Lao Niu's own family background. A god who has protected a state for hundreds of years, his family background is naturally quite high.
"Boy Jiang, let's go quickly. I sensed the aura of that enemy in this city. Go back to the inn quickly to avoid trouble." Lin Rui's words sounded in his mind, and Jiang Fan's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly Walked out of Fangshi and returned to the inn.
"Grandpa Lin, he can't sense your breath, can he?"
"No, my aura is completely different from before, and I have deliberately restrained it. He can't sense me. I'm just worried that something might happen if I stay in the same place for a long time. Boy, look here. Look at the exercise book you got in your hand. This old guy comes to every trade fair. Even though the exercises he brings look like little books sold by bookstores, the content is definitely genuine. , from my memory alone, in the Great Yin Dynasty, several masters once purchased martial arts from him and their martial arts paths skyrocketed."
"If nothing else, you should know that Meng Qianli, who shone brightly at the Wuzong Banquet of the Imperial Dynasty, once bought a technique from him."
"Meng Qianli?" Hearing this, Jiang Fan's heart was filled with excitement. He opened the cover and saw three clumsy words [Tongxuan Jin] inside, indicating a perfect level of technique.
"The technique that can directly reach the Seven Scenes of Yin Shen Realm, Mr. Jiang, you have made a lot of money."
Jiang Fan could feel that his heart was about to jump out of his throat. The Seven Scenery Yin Shen Realm was a realm that he had never dared to imagine before. He was once again grateful for his choice. Looking back at the so-called 'senior', the treasure It's right in front of you, but you don't know the true face of Lushan Mountain. After entering Baoshan Mountain, you return empty-handed and only bought a meaningless imperial history.
Taking a few deep breaths, Jiang Fan calmed down his heart, "Grandpa Lin, since he comes every time, and there are so many people at the Gold and Stone Fair, it's impossible for no one to try their luck, so just pick a book, right?" In this case, the skills in his hands should have sold a lot, but why do you feel that there are still not so many strong people in the Yin Jianghu?"
What he was thinking was that the subsequent books were all exercises that directly accessed the Seven Scenery Yinshen. Even if he was lucky, others might not be that bad.
Lin Rui snorted coldly: "Even I can't see through his cultivation. Do you think his stall can be seen by anyone?"
"Huh?? Is that so! I understand, kid."
"Another one, he is definitely a powerful martial artist of the Central Empire. It is unlikely that such a person would come to Da Yin and openly sell the Central Empire's martial arts. Once things get serious, he will have no place in the Central Empire. , you only need to look at how each sect in the Yin Dynasty cherishes its own martial arts, and you can roughly imagine the attitude of the Central Empire towards this kind of behavior, which will only be worse."
"Thank you, Grandpa Lin, for your teaching."
"You don't need to thank me. The most important thing for you right now is to completely write down the contents of this exercise. It is your chance to see his stall and buy this exercise from him. But if you get the opportunity, you will You have to hold on tight and don’t make wedding clothes for others.”
"Don't worry, kid." Jiang Fan frowned, closed the doors and windows again, and focused on memorizing the contents of the exercises...
