Chapter 7 Thunder Pattern Technique
Chapter 7 Thunder Pattern Technique
Xiao Zheng opened the panel and glanced at the Creation Points.
He currently has 2 points of good fortune.
If we use this to enlighten the Xiao family's basic perception method, is it possible to obtain a low-level Yellow Rank Battle Qi cultivation technique?
It's possible, but uncertain.
After all, the Xiao family's basic sensing method is theoretically a gradeless cultivation technique, and should not be in the sequence of Heaven and Earth.
In this way, there is a chance that clicking it will be ineffective, and being ineffective means wasting your luck points.
Furthermore, even if he could actually raise this sensing technique to the low-level Yellow Rank, Xiao Zheng wouldn't really want to.
Because consuming 1 Creation Point to create a low-level Yellow Rank book is just as wasteful as the previous Creation Point ...
As he was thinking about this, there was a knock on the door.
The innkeeper's voice came from outside the door: "Mr. Xiao, your room's lease expires today. Would you like to renew it?"
Xiao Zheng's main purpose in hiding here was to cultivate, but now that his cultivation level has reached its limit, there is no point in continuing to stay here.
Xiao Zheng replied, "I'll pack up and leave."
Waiter: "Okay!"
Xiao Zheng began packing his things.
While tidying up, he continued to think about the cultivation technique.
Since they are unwilling to try using Creation Points to enlighten the Xiao family's Sensing Method, where should they go to obtain cultivation techniques?
The simplest solution, of course, is to go back to the Xiao family.
Because the Xiao family has a rule that every member of the Xiao family who has reached the seventh level of Dou Qi before their coming-of-age ceremony can choose a cultivation technique from the Dou Qi Pavilion.
Although the method was simple, Xiao Zheng simply gave up on it.
The reason is simple: his current cultivation speed is too fast!
In the Xiao family, even a genius like Xiao Yan, with the assistance of Yao Lao, took a full year to advance from the third stage of Dou Qi to the seventh stage.
How long did it take Xiao Zheng to reach the ninth level?
Only thirty-odd days!
In addition, he used to have a reputation as a "generally recognized good-for-nothing".
One can imagine the terrible consequences if the Xiao family found out that Xiao Zheng had advanced from the fourth level of Dou Qi to the ninth level in just over a month!
No one would think that he cultivated so quickly because he was talented.
Even someone as talented as Xiao Yan before his cultivation level dropped still took several years to reach the ninth level of Dou Qi!
Others would only think that Xiao Zheng had obtained some kind of treasure, which was why he was able to raise his cultivation level to the ninth stage of Dou Qi in just over a month.
A treasure that can help someone advance from level three to level nine in just one month—such a treasure is enough to drive anyone crazy!
In this way, Xiao Zheng would become the target of public criticism. The best outcome would likely be that he would be immediately sidelined by the Xiao family's higher-ups and interrogated in a dark room for secrets...
The worst-case scenario would be that this news would spread beyond the Xiao family, becoming common knowledge in Wutan City, and he would eventually fall into the hands of the Obama or Jialie family.
Of course, Xiao Zheng's fate would not be good no matter who he falls into, so it's really hard to tell whether it's good or bad.
His current level of Dou Qi is nine stages, which seems strong, but in reality, he is not strong at all. He is far inferior to the Dou Masters, Great Dou Masters, and even Dou Emperors in Wutan City.
Xiao Zheng believed that this secret he possessed would likely interest Xiao Yan, Yao Lao, Xun'er, and many others!
So, after eliminating the options of enlightenment and returning to the Xiao family, the only method he could think of was to spend money and buy it at the auction house.
but!
Xiao Zheng is penniless right now!
He only has 30 gold coins left, how can he buy a hammer...?
Therefore, this method cannot be used immediately. If Xiao Zheng wants to obtain the cultivation technique using this method, he first needs to have money.
So the goal now is—to make money!
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind: should he go to Xiao Family Market and take the black iron piece containing the palm-absorbing device to the auction house to sell?
No!
Xiao Zheng quickly gave up on the idea.
There are two risks involved in doing so.
The first risk is that since black iron sheets can be sold at street stalls, it means that not everyone can see the secrets inside.
The second risk is that his appearance in Wutan City would easily attract the attention of the Xiao family.
Xiao Zheng, however, had dozens of enemies within the Xiao family.
Once those people surnamed Xiao come knocking on his door, Xiao Zheng will inevitably have to clash with them, and the clash will expose his strength.
If he reveals his strength, his secrets may be discovered, potentially leading to a fatal crisis for him.
"From this perspective, I'm no longer able to make money in Utan City."
Xiao Zheng frowned. If he wanted to make money, he would have to go somewhere where nobody knew him and nobody knew his past.
Xiao Zheng mentally reviewed the nearby cities from his memories.
Qingshan Town, Heiyan City...
Apart from Qingshan Town, all other cities are too far away, far beyond what he can easily go to now.
Then let's go to Qingshan Town instead.
Green Mountain Town is right next to the Monster Mountain Range. Once we get there, we can try our luck in the Monster Mountain Range if we have the chance.
There are quite a few treasures in the Monster Mountain Range...
Moreover, there is a medicine shop in Qingshan Town that sometimes hires thugs and such, with a daily wage of several hundred gold coins.
It's outrageous that a mercenary can earn in a day what an ordinary person can't live on for half a lifetime.
Xiao Zheng decided to go to Qingshan Town.
However, new problems also arose.
He didn't know how to get to Qingshan Town.
Xiao Zheng finished packing his things and went downstairs.
He asked the shopkeeper about going to Qingshan Town.
The innkeeper told Xiao Zheng that a caravan passing through Wutan City had stopped at the inn the previous evening.
They seem to be recruiting guards. If Xiao Zheng is a cultivator, he could try his luck.
The caravan is currently located in the backyard horse farm.
Xiao Zheng didn't expect to be so lucky. Just as he was about to go to Qingshan Town, he encountered a caravan heading there. What's more, they were recruiting guards.
He thanked the shopkeeper and then went to the horse farm in the backyard, where he saw a foreign caravan recruiting guards for 1000 gold coins per trip.
The requirements aren't high; a level seven Dou Qi is sufficient.
After confirming that there were no acquaintances nearby, Xiao Zheng went up to apply for the job. After passing a simple strength test, he successfully joined the caravan.
Shortly after he joined, the caravan set off.
What Xiao Zheng needs to do next is to remain as hidden as possible and avoid being discovered by acquaintances during his journey out of the city.
Fortunately, the journey was uneventful, and he successfully left the city with the caravan, heading towards Qingshan Town.
……
The day passed quickly.
In the evening, the caravan stopped by a water source.
A young man claiming to be the leader of a mercenary group came to Xiao Zheng to sell him a high-level Yellow Rank cultivation technique, saying it was only 9999 gold coins and a great deal.
Xiao Zheng was speechless. Low-level Yellow Rank already cost several thousand gold coins, while high-level Yellow Rank only cost 9999 gold coins?
This is ridiculous!
Xiao Zheng's eyes darted around. He had a panel, and he could directly add any cultivation technique to his collection with just a glance.
hum!
Are they trying to fleece him?
no way.
Xiao Zheng then said he wanted to inspect the goods first.
Seeing that Xiao Zheng didn't doubt the price, the young man immediately concluded that Xiao Zheng didn't know the value of a good product.
He pretended to hesitate, then took out the cultivation technique and showed it to Xiao Zheng.
Xiao Zheng casually flipped through the page, and a system notification appeared.
[Discovery of the Yellow-Rank Low-Level Cultivation Technique "Thunder Pattern Technique"]
[Enter now?]
【whether】
Xiao Zheng couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
This young man was indeed lying to him!
A low-level Yellow Rank cultivation technique selling for 9999 is not just a little bit expensive.
Xiao Zheng was in dire need of cultivation techniques, and since his soul attribute included "thunder," he gladly accepted the Thunder Pattern Technique!
Xiao Zheng quickly nodded.
Therefore, the two columns of skills on the panel were updated.
[Technique: Thunder Pattern Technique (Maximum Level: Nine-Star Dou Zhe)]
[Learned: Xiao Family Basic Sensing Technique (Unranked), Thunder Pattern Technique (Low Yellow Rank)]
Seeing that Xiao Zheng had inspected the goods, the young man asked expectantly, "Brother, are you buying?"
Xiao Zheng gave him a harmless smile!
