Chapter 515 The Azure Dragon Water Moon Technique Reached Perfection
As usual, Master Yun Song gave a speech, saying:
"Thunder magic is the most lethal magic among all spells, and Gengjin Divine Thunder is the most powerful thunder magic among the five elements of divine thunder."

"Normally, we sell these for less than 150 high-grade spirit stones. However, if you purchase three planting spells, you can get a 10-stone discount."

In the cooperation between the Business Alliance and the Divine Wood Sect, the price was agreed upon by both parties, and neither party could unilaterally change it.

Master Zhengyang shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"The discount is too small. A transaction worth several hundred high-grade spirit stones only requires a discount of ten spirit stones, which is too stingy. Let's make the deal at one hundred high-grade spirit stones!"

The buying and selling of magic jade slips differs from the buying and selling of resources; the cost of selling knowledge transfer is extremely low.

If it were a resource transaction, he wouldn't dare to haggle so much.

After some haggling, the Gengjin Divine Thunder was finally sold for 120 high-grade spirit stones.

Master Zhengyang reluctantly paid the spirit stones and received four jade slips.

Ji An asked, "Do you have the Yi Wood Divine Thunder?"

"Yes, the price can be calculated based on the price of Gengjin Divine Thunder."

Master Yunsong was overjoyed; it was no different from finding money on the street.

Master Zhengyang was suspicious and transmitted his voice:

"Junior brother, why do you need to buy another lightning spell? I don't have many high-grade spirit stones left, so I can't afford it."

Besides, you simply don't have the energy to practice so many spells at the same time.

Ji An explained telepathically:
"I have an idea that needs to be verified using the Yi Wood Divine Thunder, which is why I decided to buy it."

Furthermore, the purchase of the Yi Wood Divine Lightning was a personal transaction on my part, and the sect did not need to contribute any funds.

He took out a high-grade spirit stone and placed it on the table, saying, "Fellow Daoist, please take a bite."

Master Yun Song checked the count and confirmed, "The number is correct."

He instructed a maid to fetch the jade slip and said with a smile:
"The Five Elements Thunder Technique is the foundation of the Chaos Divine Thunder. Only by learning the five thunder techniques can one be qualified to learn the Chaos Divine Thunder later."

Master Zhengyang curled his lip, "Chaotic Divine Thunder is a spell used by Nascent Soul cultivators, fellow Daoist, there's no need to promote it."

No matter how much he wanted to increase the sect's magical resources, it was impossible for him to purchase Nascent Soul level spells, because he had no use for them!

After a while, the two parties exchanged money and goods, completing the transaction.

Ji An and his companion did not linger, but got up to say goodbye and leave.

After leaving the Sutra Repository, Master Zhengyang said:
"The Yi Wood Divine Thunder cannot be funded by you alone. In a few years, you will hand over the magic, and the Treasure Pavilion will return the spirit stones."

"Doesn't this mean I learned thunder magic without paying much of a price?"

"This time it's like this. By the way, what exactly is your plan? Come over and listen."

Ji An gently shook his head. "This needs to be kept secret."

"Making it all so mysterious!"

Master Zhengyang muttered to himself, "Where do we go next? Leave this place or wander around?"

"I'm going to buy some spiritual items. I won't be going with my senior brother. Let's meet at the sect's headquarters this evening before we leave."

Ji An plans to purchase spiritual soil to upgrade the grade of the spiritual fields in preparation for improving the spiritual veins of the small world.

There was no reason not to be cautious in this matter, so he chose to act alone.

"Okay, I wish you all the best. I'm heading back to Immortal City now."

Ji An first went to the Golden Puppet Pavilion and sold three Azure Dragon Woods, receiving 130 high-grade spirit stones in return.

Perhaps it's the Golden Core stage cultivation that's making the difference; it wasn't this price before.

He spent several dozen mid-grade spirit stones to buy several highly intelligent puppets, intending to put them into the small world for use.

The purpose of these puppets is to take out some spirit-devouring insects from the insect tower every day to feed the spirit fish and fire crystal ants.

After leaving the Golden Puppet Pavilion, he found a shop selling spirit soil in an inconspicuous location, went inside, and said:

"I want to buy second-tier top-grade spirit soil, but I don't want fire or earth elements. What's the price?"

The small world is a mid-grade second-tier spiritual vein, and a lot of Dao essence has been invested in it. Now that it has obtained a magic jade slip at the Golden Core level, it should not be difficult to upgrade it to a high-grade second-tier vein.

Therefore, he chose to purchase second-grade top-quality spiritual soil in order to upgrade his superior spiritual vein in the future.

Upon hearing that he wanted to buy second-grade top-quality spirit soil, the shopkeeper knew a big deal had come his way and said:
“Senior, the shopkeeper is in charge of this level of spirit soil trading. Please follow me to the second floor.”

The waiter led him to the VIP room, and a moment later the manager appeared; she was a beautiful and elegant female cultivator.

She subtly used a secret technique to investigate, her expression becoming even gentler:
"How many kilograms of top-grade spirit soil would you like to purchase, senior?"

There is no doubt about the purchasing power of Golden Core cultivators.

Ji An smiled faintly, "Let's talk about the price first. I'm short on cash, so I'll buy as much as I can."

"Senior is too modest. Second-grade top-quality Black Swamp Soil costs twenty-five mid-grade spirit stones per pound, while Qinghua Soil costs twenty mid-grade spirit stones per pound. We do not have any Metal Element Spirit Soil here."

Metal-elemental spiritual plants are extremely rare, and there are very few cultivators who would buy metal-elemental spiritual soil.

As far as I know, none of the shops selling spirit soil on the flying ship sell top-grade metal-element spirit soil.

Ji An considered his assets and said:

"What discounts can I get if I buy 400 jin each?"

For most of the years, he appeared to be quite 'poor'.

There was no other way; the expenses were simply too high, and we still owed the sect a considerable amount of debt.

The female cultivator's eyes lit up, and she quickly calculated in her mind, saying:
"Senior, purchasing 400 jin of each will require 18,000 mid-grade spirit stones."

"We'll save you money completely; you only need to reduce it by 500 mid-grade spirit stones."

If the deal goes through, the transaction amount will reach over a hundred high-grade spirit stones, making a fortune.

Ji An stared at the female cultivator and asked:
"If I pay with high-grade spirit stones, what is the exchange rate?" "High-grade spirit stones will be exchanged for mid-grade spirit stones at a 20% premium."

That is, one high-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred and twenty mid-grade spirit stones.

"With a 30% premium, I can trade directly."

The female cultivator tried to bargain, but he wouldn't budge an inch, and in the end, they made a deal.

Ji An placed the spirit soil into the cave stone, once again lamenting how quickly the money was spent.

The teleportation array on Yingri Peak lit up, and the two Golden Core cultivators returned to their sect.

Ji An bowed and said:

"Senior brother, I can't wait to study the planting techniques at the Golden Core level. I'm really looking forward to seeing what changes they can bring to the sect."

Master Zhengyang waved his hand gently: "Go on, you've got things to do."

However, one's cultivation level cannot be neglected; this is the foundation of a cultivator.

Ji An rode the clouds and quickly disappeared from Zheng Yang Zhenren's sight.

Back at Crimson Flame Peak, he bathed and changed his clothes, then lit a second-tier top-grade soul incense in the quiet room.

Today, I'm going to put all my effort into mastering a spell.

He took out a jade slip that was flashing with yellow light and stuck it to his forehead; this was the Earth Vein Ascension Spell.

This spell is not a hybrid spell, so it's relatively easier to learn.

Ji An browsed through it several times before starting to study the spellcasting techniques.

He possessed strong comprehension, had a superior earth element seed, and had experience with wood element spells at the Great Perfection level. In addition, he had a profound and unique understanding of the Five Elements Revolving Sutra. It took him more than two hours to finally grasp the essence of the spell.

Nourished by the second-grade top-quality soul incense, he did not feel tired in his soul; on the contrary, he was full of energy.

He made hand seals and began to formally practice the spell.

His powerful soul allowed him to manipulate magic with exquisite precision, preventing any backlash from unsuccessful spellcasting.

He cast the spell again and again, constantly summarizing his experience.

An hour passed, and he once again cast a spell. The Earth Seed in his Divine Palace shone brightly, and a blurry phantom of a Qilin appeared on the ground.

Yellow spiritual light rippled outwards like water, and the nourishing and peaceful Dharma essence lingered around the fingertips.

"It's done!"

Ji An laughed heartily. Although the spell was only at the beginner level, the intensity of the pervasive magical intent was quite high, and that was enough.

He focused his mind on his dantian, connecting it with the stone tortoise, and lines of writing appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness.

[Master: Ji An]

【Daoyun: 0】

Spiritual Ability: Kan Spirit 10462.3, Gen Spirit 9182.4, Zhen Spirit 7012.4, Xun Spirit 9225.7, Kun Spirit 11465.6, Qian Spirit 8438.4, Dui Spirit 8433.6, Li Spirit 8848.2

[Spell: Spirit Sealing Technique (Perfect 14%)]

Spiritual Roar (Dacheng 11%)

The Thread-Pulling Mantra (Perfect 1%)

Earth Levee Ascension Spell (Beginner 1%)

In recent years, both Fire Release and Metal Release techniques have been upgraded to the Great Perfection level.

"Let me see your potential. Refine the spiritual energy and enhance the Earth Vein Life Spell!"

Ji An's consciousness was drawn into the mysterious space of the stone tortoise. At this time, his consciousness could already see that it was his own image, and the facial details were no different from those of a real person.

The illusory image of his consciousness stood on the Kun position and began to practice the spell again and again, and his understanding of the spell increased little by little.

When Kunling disappeared, Ji An's consciousness then connected with the stone tortoise.

[Spell: Leyline Ascension Spell (Beginner 1% → Advanced 65%)]

The spiritual energy consumed by spells that advance to the Golden Core level is several times greater than before. It is not difficult to advance to the Perfected level, but to advance to the Great Perfection level, one needs to cultivate diligently.

Ji An made a hand seal and released the Earth Vein Ascension Spell, causing the Earth Qilin to radiate a warm, yellow spiritual light.

He quietly sensed the strength of the Dharma's power and nodded unconsciously.

Although the spell is only at the Great Perfection level, the magical intent it exudes has slightly surpassed that of the Great Perfection level Yellow Dragon Enhancing Essence Technique.

The effects of the second-tier top-grade soul incense are very strong. Ji An's spiritual power has not been greatly depleted, so it is suitable to continue his efforts and master the other two planting spells as well.

He took out the jade slip containing the Azure Dragon Water Moon Technique, which shimmered with black and blue light.

He placed the jade slip on his forehead and extended his divine sense to read the information within.

Following the same steps, Ji An continued to try casting spells.

Three more hours passed, and his face was full of fatigue, but a smile flashed in his eyes.

"Refine the spiritual energy to enhance the Azure Dragon Water Moon Technique."

The three spiritual energies—Kan, Zhen, and Xun—decrease synchronously in a fixed proportion, deepening Ji An's understanding of magic.

[Spell: Azure Dragon Water Moon Technique (Beginner 1% → Mastery 1%)]

Ji An clenched his fist tightly and let out a low laugh:
"Yes, that's the taste!"

The spell can be directly upgraded to the perfect level, which will greatly speed up the cultivation of water and wood elemental plants.

Ji An only realized this when the incense in the censer had burned out. He took out a plate of incense, lit it, rested for a moment, and then continued to study the spell.
