Invincible!

Chapter 82
The Crimson True Body, six thousand merits.

Sword energy soars to the sky, nine thousand steps of effort.

The Devouring Yuan Technique requires 9,400 units of effort.

Seven stars mark destiny, nine thousand six hundred merits.

The Southern Dipper Calamity, nine thousand eight hundred merits.

Aside from the Crimson True Body, the high prices of other secret techniques are intended to deter people from using the cost.

What's the point of practicing such a top-tier secret technique if you don't have enough ability and talent?
If one possesses exceptional talent and aptitude, it's unlikely that such a large amount of effort would be lacking.

We don't have enough funds.

Back at his residence, Li Xian looked at the secret techniques listed in the True Inheritance Hall and was very worried.

He clearly possessed 1,500 points of merit, a considerable sum for any outer sect disciple, but compared to what he wanted to buy…

Not even close.

"The top-ranked player earns a base salary of three thousand... Over a year, that's enough to buy a few secret techniques..."

"Ding dong!"

At this moment, Li Xian's identity token vibrated slightly.

He glanced at the token and immediately sat up straight.

"The Qiankun Sword Manual and the Ten Steps have both arrived? Hmm!? The Crimson Extreme True Body!?"

Li Xian was quite surprised when he saw the last cultivation technique sent to him.

He glanced at the giver...

Southern Palace Flying Catkins.

Unexpectedly, this true disciple of Nangong even traded away the Crimson Extreme True Body for him.

Although there was no sword energy soaring into the sky, these three techniques were enough for him to study for a long time.

He thanked him, and then...

Dao Realm disciples can freely send messages to Inner and Outer Sect disciples, but Inner and Outer Sect disciples do not have the right to send messages to Dao Realm disciples before they "add each other as friends".

"Never mind, I'll learn first."

Li Xian took the lead in flipping through the Qiankun Sword Manual.

This is said to be the most powerful and versatile sword technique.

After flipping through the book for a while, Li Xian had already grasped the profound mystery of the first chapter of this sword technique.

"With the foundation of a sword master from my previous life, this chapter is not difficult. After getting used to it for a while, I will be able to master the variations and moves in this chapter."

He quickly flipped to the second article.

This section focuses on the application of true qi and sword energy.

He looked through it for a long time, then went back to the beginning.

These fragments, though only a few hundred words long, directly point to the essence of refining true qi into sword qi.

"I'm afraid... we'll have to give it a good try, and it will take some time."

He then turned to the third article.

Sword Qi Thunder Sound!

"A sonic boom sword."

Li Xian patiently flipped through the pages.

This chapter demands an extremely high level of explosiveness and coordination of internal energy!
Only by rapidly compressing one's true energy can one transform it into a sword strike that pierces through a sonic boom.

"For someone who isn't born with a natural body to master this skill, it would probably take several times, even ten times, more effort."

He felt something.

Finally, he returned to the fourth chapter, which mentioned refining swords into silk.

This chapter requires an unparalleled level of precise control over sword energy and sword aura.

He pondered for a moment...

On the contrary, he felt that this realm was easier for him than cultivating sword qi thunder sound.

"On Earth, growth has reached its limit, so one can only focus on technique, wishing to use every bit of strength tenfold. Therefore, the sword is refined into silk..."

Li Xian opened his hands, and streams of true energy, visible to the naked eye, rose from his hands.

This true energy quickly split into two, then four, then eight, then sixteen...

Ultimately, the sword energies intertwined like threads, forming a wide-ranging area of ​​lethal damage.

Although this is only true qi, not true qi, but...

"The first chapter of the Qiankun Sword Manual focuses on the differentiation and unpredictability of sword light, which is not difficult for me. The second chapter, refining sword into qi, is sharp and domineering, which is also not difficult. The fourth chapter, refining sword into silk, transforms from hard to soft, and its cultivation difficulty ranks third. As for sword qi thunder sound, it focuses on powerful bursts, which takes a lot of time and effort, and is the most difficult to master."

Having figured it out, he turned to the fifth article...

Sword power!

By drawing upon the power of heaven and earth, one can transform sword techniques into magic!
This is the method for entering the Dao!

He was actually somewhat unable to understand it; the difficulty had increased exponentially. "Entering the Dao!"

Li closed his eyes and quietly processed the information.

His understanding and vision were limited to the realm of martial arts.

After entering the path...

Little is known.

On the one hand, there are limitations due to time and background.

on the other hand……

The Dao Realm and the Martial Artist Realm are two completely different worlds.

This can be seen from the difference between the Great Luo Immortal Sect's disciples who have entered the Dao and those who have not.

Before entering the Dao, one is not even qualified to ask the spirit of the Haotian Mirror to uphold justice; once framed, one will be unable to defend oneself.

After entering the Dao, any conflict can be directly resolved by the spirit of the Haotian Mirror. As long as there is reason and evidence, the sect leader must also act in accordance with the law.

Before entering the Dao, the only way to earn merit and income, besides being listed on the leaderboard, was by carrying out sect missions.

After entering the Dao, one is given property by the sect, and with a little management, the profits are endless.

If one can master the true teachings, one can even enjoy the abundant resources of one of the three thousand vassal states, spanning thousands of miles of land.

Not to mention the longevity and immortality that comes with each breakthrough in the Daoist realm, which grants a sixty-year lifespan.

After reading the relatively orthodox Qiankun Sword Manual, Li Xian turned his attention to the Ten Steps.

"This movement technique... puts a tremendous strain on the body, and can only be practiced with the aid of healing medicine."

After reading it, his understanding of the technique was not beyond his expectations.

At last……

The True Form of Crimson Extreme.

Practicing this technique is where the main energy expenditure comes from.

"Unless I am willing to practice for a round and recuperate for ten days, I must have the assistance of miraculous medicines. Even with the assistance of miraculous medicines... every practice session must be flawless. Only in this way, after a hundred days, can the Crimson Extreme True Body be perfected and then withstand the True Qi without any damage."

After Li finished reading the technique...

I briefly recalled the list of elixirs I had seen.

The advantage of being in such a top-tier commodity market is that you can find all sorts of things.

Given enough effort, methods that are virtually impossible for outsiders to master will become merely a matter of time.

The downside is...

Extremely high consumption.

Even if he pushed his talent to its limit and every time he did something unexpected, and even if he bought the lowest-grade pills to nourish his body, he would still gain four thousand merit points after a hundred times.

"Alright, put the Crimson Extreme True Body aside for now. First, focus on cultivating the Ten Steps and master the first and second chapters of the Qiankun Sword Manual."

Li Xian made a decision immediately.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

A somewhat unfamiliar voice came from outside: "Is Senior Brother Li here? Qi Huo has come to pay his respects."

Qi Huo?

Who?
After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something.

Famous figures on Jumang's celestial boat.

The princess of the Great Yan Dynasty, before even arriving at the Immortal Sect, had already earned the title of "Twin Peaks of Jumang".

After a moment's thought, he opened the door anyway.

Outside the door, Princess Qi Huo, dressed neatly and smartly, carried a gift and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Li, this is just a small token of my appreciation."

"What's up?"

Li asked first.

"Senior Brother Li and I traveled together on the Jumang Heavenly Boat. If others hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have known that Senior Brother Li was on that boat. To be honest, we are quite destined to meet..."

Just as Qi Huo was about to exchange pleasantries, Li Xian went straight to the point: "I still need to cultivate, and time is of the essence. Your Highness Qi Huo, please state your purpose."

"Senior Brother Li is quick-witted and outspoken."

Qi Huo didn't find anything wrong with Li Xian's attitude and said with a smile, "We have gathered together the most outstanding people on this Jumang Sky Ship to form the Sun Chasing Society. We would like to specially invite Senior Brother Li to join us. We are willing to offer him the position of president."

"Not interested in."

Li Xian didn't even want to know more.

Upon hearing this, Qi Huo said, "Prodigies like Senior Brother Li need a lot of resources to quickly improve their strength when they first enter the sect. However, they lack sufficient foundation and cultivation, so they cannot exchange for many resources and cultivation techniques. But, our Daily Association can provide them."

"Ok?"

Li paused for a moment: "Your Daily Sun Society members are all newcomers, how can you provide for them?"

Seeing that Li Xian had finally shown interest, Qi Huo smiled slightly: "Senior Brother Li, have you ever heard of Tianjiao Loan?"
