Chapter 13: Forcing the Palace
The thin gold wires were intertwined to form a small net pocket, which was just the size of the red flame crystal, and the two sides of the net were pierced by a thin gold thread, turning into a gold wire necklace, which was worn around his neck.
Sizzle!!
Wang Guanlan took a deep breath, although he knew that he had succeeded, but when he put on this chain and communicated with it with his spiritual sense, the surging fire element fluctuations and the beating heat flow still made his breath stagnate slightly.
At the moment when he put on this chain, Wang Guanlan even felt as if he was back in the Red Fire Flame Dragon Banner, of course, although the two were not of the same magnitude at all, but the feeling was so similar.
Gently raising his hand, palm up, five fingers flexed, a faint flame formed over his palm, and soon condensed into a small fireball, followed by a second, third, fourth......
In a short period of time, more than a dozen fireballs had gathered around his body, which was unimaginable before, and with a movement of his heart, these fireballs quickly converged and melted into a large fireball the size of a basketball, which flew out of the window and smashed on a piece of bluestone under Wang Guanlan's indulgence.
Boom!!
The bluestone, which was two meters square, was blown into pieces by the fireball, and it flew in all directions.
"Fourteen less, what's wrong?!"
"What's going on!"
"Fourteen Shao, are you okay!!"
The movement of this fireball was too big, and it immediately alarmed everyone in the small courtyard, and Tiancheng Tianyou and the two rushed in as soon as possible to inspect the situation.
"It's okay, I'm experimenting with a new spell, you all go down!"
Listening to Wang Guanlan testing new spells, the eyes of the two civet guards flashed a look of envy and understanding, since it was said that Wang Guanlan in Antunyi defeated the eighteen mountain thieves with a formation, they all had a deep awe for Wang Guanlan, and this awe made them more careful and respectful in the face of Zhou Leopard.
This attitude of his subordinates satisfied Wang Guanlan's vanity very much, to put it bluntly, he is still a person who is very easy to satisfy.
Seeing the two leaving, Wang Guanlan continued to experiment with the effect of the red flame crystal, this time, a small flame appeared on the tip of his index finger, less than half a centimeter away from his fingertip, and then the middle finger, ring finger, little finger and thumb, and soon, a small fireball appeared on the fingertips of the five fingers.
"If one day I learn the Flame Explosion Fireball Technique, which ranks one hundred and twenty-three, wouldn't I be able to play the Five-Finger Flame Explosion Bomb?!" he thought to himself, as he learned more and more about martial arts and Taoism, he also became more and more aware of the difference between the two.
Martial arts, in essence, is to exhale the vitality of heaven and earth, assimilate the vitality of heaven and earth, and turn it into one's own internal qi, that is to say, this is a process of assimilating the vitality of heaven and earth, and whether it is to use internal qi to polish and temper the body or practice various different martial arts moves, to put it bluntly, it is the use of the energy of internal qi, and the law of the Tao is different.
Dao Law, in essence, is the use of spirit or the power of the soul to the Heaven and Earth Yuanqi, the Dao Law of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is completely primitive, external energy vitality, not the body, therefore, many warlocks are very weak, but they can do countless incredible things with the power of the powerful soul, and even, when your warlock rank reaches the ninth order, the soul can break away from ** and survive on its own, not born or destroyed, it is for the ghosts and immortals.
Of course, there are many places where martial arts and Taoism have something in common, for example, the concept and spiritual technique of spiritual power tempering in Taoism are just like the internal qi cultivation method of martial arts, which is the root of everything.
It is precisely because the Taoist art is directly permeated with the vitality of heaven and earth, so compared to the martial arts, it looks more magical and weird, so the controllers of the Taoist arts, the warlocks, in the eyes of ordinary people, are much more mysterious than the martial artists that everyone can become.
Wang Guanlan now knows three kinds of spells, one is the fireball technique, and the other two are the Red Flame Arrow and Jin Hong Guan from the woman in black and the magic soldier of Qingjiao, with the help of the power of Red Flame Crystal, he can now cast the Red Flame Arrow, but the Jin Hong Guan said, but it is a golden spell, with his current ability, he can't sense and mobilize the surrounding Jin Yuan Force at all, if you want to cast this spell, you also need to use the magic weapon in the hands of Qingjiao, but unfortunately, the quality of that magic weapon is only a low-grade magic soldier, and after forcibly casting Jin Hong Guan said once, it will be scrapped。
"Affinity, the affinity of heaven and earth vitality, it seems that not only my internal qi is inclined to the fire surname, but even the power of my divine soul is also inclined to fire, so I can easily learn the fireball technique, but this golden rainbow is very difficult to display.
The affinity of the divine soul power for the vitality of heaven and earth is innate, and it cannot be cultivated, but generally speaking, as long as it is a warlock, there will always be an unusual affinity for one or several kinds of vitality between heaven and earth, just like Wang Guanlan, his affinity for fire vitality is obviously greater than the induction of other yuan forces, this point, every warlock can find when the soul power awakens, because the divine soul cannot deceive people.
With this piece of Chiyan Crystal, although Wang Guanlan's rank is low, but he has enough attack power, if he cooperates with his sword technique, I believe that if he cultivates to a person under the Imperial Qi Realm, no one can help him, and then cooperate with his formation, at least he thinks that his safety in this Yicheng is absolutely guaranteed.
"I drove Hou Zihan out of Yicheng, making it clear that I wanted to monopolize the interests of Yicheng, I don't know, what kind of backhand the ambitious third son will use against me!!"

"Fourteen young, the shopkeeper of Shunhexing Wang Da and the shopkeeper Chen of Xinghexing ask to meet!"
"Shun and go, Xing He!" Wang Guanlan gently put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at Wang Qing, "What are they doing here?!"
"They want to talk to you about the acquisition of anchovy grass with Thirteen Young Ones!"
"Isn't that all your responsibility, you negotiated with them, what do you want me to do?!" Wang Guanlan frowned slightly, instinctively feeling that there was something wrong here.
Shunhe Bank and Xinghe Bank are two of the largest commercial houses in Yicheng, usually in addition to doing business, the main thing is to buy anchovy grass, because behind these two commercial houses, there are all the wealthy families of the three southwestern provinces, the more such wealthy families, in order to enhance their strength, the more warriors, the more warriors, the more pills are needed, of course, the demand for anchovy will not be less.
However, the acquisition of anchovy grass has been commonplace in Yicheng, how many years have been done, although Wang Guanlan has the intention of increasing the price of anchovy grass, but it has not been implemented, and it has not even been told to others, of course, it is impossible to leak out, it can be said that during this period of time in Yicheng, except for changing a few shopkeepers and missing a Hou Zihan, there is no change, in this case, these two shopkeepers came to see themselves, it seems weird, instinctively, Wang Guanlan thought, it will not be simple inside, sure enough, Wang Qing's words confirmed their thoughts。
"It's such a young master, the commercial houses in Yicheng feel that the price of our anchovy is too high, and I hope to be able to reduce it by three percent compared to the past, such a big thing, I can't be the master, I can only let you be the master, these two shopkeepers are the representatives of Yicheng commercial houses!"
"What, reduce the price, reduce it by three percent?!" Wang Guanlan almost didn't laugh, "I said Wang Qing, your brain is not broken, this kind of thing still needs to be asked to me, of course it can't be lowered, you blow those two people away, I don't see it!"
"But ......!"
"But what, is there anything else you can't say?!"
"It's not that the little one has something unspeakable, but the little one has heard some bad rumors recently, because it is unconfirmed, so he doesn't dare to tell the fourteenth young, but now it seems that these rumors are true!"
"Oh, there are rumors, I want to hear about this!" Wang Guanlan became interested.
"That's the case, fourteen young, you also know that in recent years, the annual harvest of anchovies in Yicheng has been very good, and the supply is very sufficient!"
"This is very good!" Wang Guanlan said, "Do people still want to owe the harvest?!"
"No, young master, our anchovy backlog is too much, more than a dozen warehouses in Yicheng have been filled, in the past two years, the price of anchovy has been declining, but it has not dropped very much, and now these people just see that we have too much anchovy backlog and want to bargain with us!"
"That's it!" Wang Guanlan seemed to understand something, wiped his nose, and said with some embarrassment, "I remember, after the anchovy grass is dried, the medicinal effect can be stored for at least three years, right?!"
"Yes, but the medicinal effect is not the same, the price is not the same, the price of the herb for three years is only one-third of that year!"
"Well, it's not difficult to understand, scarcity is expensive, there are more things, the price will naturally come down, those shopkeepers think so too, right?!"
"Yes, that's what they said, they have a lot of goods on their hands!" he paused, "In addition, there is also a problem with the docks of the Nushui River!"
"What's wrong with the docks?!"
"Some ship bosses feel that the freight is too low and want to increase the freight rate!"
"Raise the shipping fee?!" Wang Guanlan's smile on his face was even bigger, this Yicheng is prosperous by anchovy, and by the Nushui River, so to transport the anchovy grass, the waterway is undoubtedly the best choice, low cost, large volume, although the water flow of the Nushui River is very fast, but there will be brave men under the heavy reward, all along, the freight of the Nushui River is more than three times higher than that of other rivers, and the current freight is just raised half a year ago, and now it will be raised, which is obviously unreasonable, plus the commercial bank wants to reduce the price, even if it is a fool, it can be seen that there is a problem here。
