Chapter 8: Swallowing the Heavens
In the inner hall of the shop, Ye Feng sat on a chair, staring at the meditation pill on the table, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.
After he and the shopkeeper entered the inner hall just now, the shopkeeper, known as the Iron Rooster, took out the Meditation Pill and told him that this Meditation Pill was not of much use in the store, and was going to give it to him.
The shopkeeper, who has always been stingy, suddenly made such a generous move, which inevitably makes people suspicious.
Looking at the meditation pill for a long time, Ye Feng closed the lid on the pill, and then pushed it back to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, just say something straight." ”
The shopkeeper didn't take the Meditation Pill, but looked at Ye Feng with burning eyes and said, "Brother Ye, in fact, I invited you into the inner room this time to make a deal with you. Don't worry, as long as you agree to my request, don't say that the Meditation Pill has greater benefits waiting for you. ”
Looking at the shopkeeper with a flattering face on his face, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel a little vanity in his heart. In the past, he came to the shop more than once, not to mention that the shopkeeper would not be polite to him, and even the guys in the store were extremely sarcastic and sarcastic.
Now that he had only revealed his treasure appreciation skills, the outside world's perception of him had changed, which could not help but make him feel extremely amused. He could guess that the reason why the shopkeeper invited him to the inner room, to serve tea and give pills, must have something to do with the treasure appreciation technique he used.
It's just that this treasure appreciation technique is as important as the Spirit Devouring Decision, not to mention that the benefits of the Meditation Pill will not impress Ye Feng, even if it is a greater benefit, it will not make him tempted.
"Shopkeeper, you have something to say. If you talk and do things in a roundabout way, you will never be able to negotiate business!" Ye Feng said quietly.
In the face of Ye Feng's mean words, the shopkeeper smiled, he picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Actually, it's not that I'm beating around the bush, but I don't know how to speak." That's it, since Brother Ye is a cheerful person, I will tell the truth. I don't know if Brother Ye can sell me the secret recipe for sword washing. Don't worry, I, Lu Gui, am not a villain, as long as you are willing to sell the secret recipe, I promise that you will not suffer. ”
"This guy just took a fancy to the sword washing liquid?" Ye Feng was slightly stunned. Just now, when he saw the shopkeeper's courteous appearance, he thought that the other party took a fancy to his treasure appreciation secret technique, but he didn't expect that the other party was just washing the idea of sword liquid.
But it's no wonder that the treasure appreciation technique is a magical technique in the world, don't say that the shopkeeper would not have thought that there is such a magical technique in the world, I am afraid that there is no end to the sea from the water sword sect master, and he will not believe that there is such a mysterious method in the world.
The Sword Wash Liquid may seem simple, but it must be used in conjunction with the Spirit Devouring Solution. Ye Feng knew in his heart that the shopkeeper must have seen the effect of nitric acid solution cleaning the sword, so he would be tempted by it.
His mind turned, and Ye Feng sneered in his heart. Since someone has taken a fancy to the sword washing liquid, he naturally will not let go of such a good opportunity to make money. However, no matter what, he would not tell the secret of the Spirit Devouring Solution, let alone tell anyone about the fact that the sword washing liquid was mixed with the Spirit Devouring Decision's vitality.
"It turns out that Shopkeeper Lu is working on the idea of washing the sword liquid. To be honest, the sword washing liquid is a secret recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation by our Ye family, and it must not be sold. However, ......" Speaking of this, Ye Feng suddenly paused and whetted Lu Gui's appetite.
"But what?" Lu Gui asked nervously.
"However, although the family motto does not allow the sale of sword wash liquid formulas, it does not say that sword wash liquid cannot be sold. If Shopkeeper Lu is interested, I can sell some sword washing liquid, but this price is ......" Ye Feng smiled again and said nothing.
Hearing that Ye Feng said that he only sold sword washing liquid, but not the formula, a cold glint flashed in Lu Gui's eyes. He didn't expect that Ye Feng, who seemed to be ordinary, would have a cunning that was not inferior to him.
However, there is no way to do it, anyone who has the magic formula of sword washing liquid may not be easy to sell, the wisest choice is to keep the formula for themselves and sell sword washing liquid instead.
"Brother Ye, how much are you going to sell for your sword washing liquid?" Lu Gui asked through gritted teeth. When he said this, he was still thinking about another idea in his heart, as long as he could master a bottle of sword washing liquid, he would be able to find someone to analyze the composition of this special liquid, and from then on, he could get rid of Ye Feng's clamps.
"Well, that's it. Shopkeeper Lu didn't know that the sword washing liquid was very troublesome to mix, not only did it require a lot of precious medicinal materials, but it also required a lot of energy. This is also the shopkeeper Lu, you speak, I would not sell this kind of sword washing liquid if I were anyone, so let's not ask for much, the price of each five hundred milliliters of sword washing liquid is two hundred taels of silver, what do you think?" Ye Feng said calmly.
"Two hundred taels ......" Lu Gui opened his mouth wide in shock. Two hundred taels of silver was almost his salary for five years of working in the shop, but he didn't expect Ye Feng to open his mouth and ask for two hundred taels of silver.
Seeing that Lu Gui bowed his head and was silent, Ye Feng sneered in his heart. He didn't speak anymore, just pulled out the low-rank sword he was carrying and carefully wiped it with a deerskin cloth.
Ye Feng's movements fell in Lu Gui's eyes, making Lu Gui stunned for a moment, and then he understood the purpose of Ye Feng's actions. Compared to the low-level sword, don't say two hundred taels of silver, even two thousand taels of silver is nothing.
Thinking that after he mastered the sword washing liquid, it was very likely that he would find a row-level low-level weapon in the waste weapons again, Lu Gui suddenly gritted his teeth and slammed the table hard.
"Okay, two hundred taels is two hundred taels. However, Brother Ye, you have to promise that in the future, after I run out of sword washing liquid, you will continue to provide it for me. Lu Gui said angrily.
Ye Feng smiled slightly and nodded in agreement. Just kidding, selling a bottle of nitric acid solution worth less than ten cents for two hundred taels of silver, wouldn't it be a fool not to do this kind of business. As for the matter of devouring the soul and determining the vitality, it is not worth mentioning. As long as he continues to cultivate, he is not afraid of consuming the vitality in his body, let alone caring about the little vitality required to configure the sword washing liquid.
After negotiating with Lu Gui, Ye Feng promised to send Lu Gui sword washing liquid in three days. Before leaving the inner room, he glanced at the Meditation Pill on the table, and after Lu Gui saw him like this, he immediately stuffed the Meditation Pill box into his hand with interest, and kept saying that this pill was a gift for him.
With three hundred and twenty taels of silver and the Meditation Pill in his hand, Ye Feng left the shop. As soon as he stepped out of the shop with his front foot, a smug smile appeared on his face. When he entered the shop, his entire net worth was only fifty taels of silver, but in the blink of an eye, he increased his wealth by five times, and he also obtained a low-level sword that was enough to make all the disciples of the outer court blush, as well as a meditation pill.
Ye Feng did not show off the wealth he had obtained like an upstart, but carefully wrapped the low-level longsword he had obtained with a cloth bag. After doing all this, he quickly left the Sword Sect Mountain Gate and turned to the edge of a secluded and uninhabited waterhole.
On the shore of the waterhole, Ye Feng took out the row-level low-rank long sword he had obtained. Seeing the aqua blue brilliance flickering above the long sword, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.
Swords of all grades come with different attributes. Among the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth that it is divided, the water-attribute long sword is the most rare. The water attribute is born with a special effect of calming the mind, and the sword cultivation with the water attribute sword is equivalent to having a treasure that can make the mind calm, and among the five attribute swords, the water attribute sword is the most valuable.
Caressing the sword body that exuded a cold aura, a trace of hesitation appeared in Ye Feng's eyes. This Zhanshui Sword was the first weapon of grade he had obtained in his life, and he was really reluctant to absorb this kind of sword.
After hesitating, the pendant on Ye Feng's chest released a purple brilliance. Where the brilliance rose, Xiao Bai's soul image resurfaced in the void.
Xiao Bai looked at Ye Feng with a smile and said, "Why, can't you give up this rank-level sword? If you can't even give up this lowest-level weapon, how can you cultivate the Spirit Devouring Decision in the future." If you want to cultivate the Spirit Devouring Decision to the fullest, you need to spend at least thousands of tiered swords, if you can't make a decision now, give up cultivating the Spirit Devouring Final Decision as soon as possible. ”
Xiao Bai's words were almost sarcastic, causing a layer of evil aura to rise on Ye Feng's face. Looking at Xiao Bai's playful expression, Ye Feng gritted his teeth suddenly, inserted the Zhanshui Sword into the sandy land, and made a gesture of practice absorption.
Ye Feng's movements fell in Xiao Bai's eyes, making Xiao Bai smile approvingly. In fact, when he first got the line-level low-rank sword, his performance was far inferior to Ye Feng. If it weren't for his teacher's life and death, he might not have been ruthless enough to absorb a good grade weapon.
Seeing that Ye Feng was about to practice, Xiao Bai hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said, "Little guy, there is actually one thing I don't know if I should tell you. ”
"What's the matter?" Ye Feng raised his head and asked.
"Actually, Soul Swallowing is not just the version I gave you, there is also an even more powerful and enhanced version. However, since the second enhanced version of the Spirit Devouring Decision was studied, no one in the Sword Hall had successfully cultivated. Now that you have been able to cultivate the second layer of the Spirit Devouring Decision, I think it's time to tell you the enhanced version of the Spirit Devouring Decision, as for whether you choose to cultivate or not, it is all up to your personal will. Xiao Bai said.
After saying that, he shook his hand again, and a strange text image was released from his palm, which hit Ye Feng's mind.
In Ye Feng's mind, countless words poured into him like flowing water, and the intense pain made his face twitch. When the whole exercise penetrated into his mind, he couldn't help but be shocked.
This is a similar exercise to the Spirit Swallowing Decision, but the name is called the Heaven Swallowing Decision. Similar to the Spirit Devouring Decision, the Sky Devouring Decision also relies on absorbing the energy on high-level weapons to improve its own cultivation.
However, unlike the Spirit Swallowing Decision, which only requires the number of weapons, the Heaven Swallowing Decision is not smaller than the Spirit Swallowing Decision in terms of quantity requirements, and has a stricter division.
The first layer of the Heaven Swallowing Decision is the same as the Spirit Swallowing Decision, both of which are considered successful if they absorb ten murderous swords, but the second layer, the Heaven Swallowing Decision not only needs to absorb twenty row-level low-level weapons, but also has strict requirements for weapon attributes.
Grade weapons are divided into five attributes: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, while the Heaven Devouring Decision requires cultivators to maintain a balance of the five attributes during the devouring process. If any of the five attributes cannot maintain a balance, the Heaven Swallowing Decision means failure, and although the cultivator will not lose his strength, his cultivation will definitely be greatly reduced, and he will only be able to cultivate the Spirit Swallowing Decision, which is worse than the Heaven Swallowing Decision.
After seeing the request of the Heaven Swallowing Decision, Ye Feng's brows furrowed. No wonder even Xiao Bai said that no one in the Sword Hall could successfully cultivate the Heaven Devouring Decision, such harsh conditions were simply difficult for a strong man, Mo said that it was impossible for a person to be so lucky, the five weapons obtained were the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, even if it was the first time to get this kind of weapon, then when he absorbed thousands of weapons in the future, who could guarantee that he would always be so lucky.
