Chapter 14 Measuring Spirit Stones

"A middle-grade spirit stone?" Yao Guo rubbed his ears to make sure he had heard correctly, "Aren't all the things here starting from a high-grade spirit stone?"

"This thing is worthless, so I'll charge you the cost price of one jade slip. If you can afford more jade slips, you can make dozens of copies!" Old Xu laughed.

Yao Guo pouted, she thought this guy would hit her hard!

Yao Guo took a middle-grade spirit stone, handed it over, and asked, "Do you have any water spells here?"

By learning small spells, she has basically determined the attributes of her spiritual roots. Whether it is a single spiritual root or multiple spiritual roots, there must be water attributes in it.

"It seems that there are a few good ones." Old Xu said while reaching into the storage bag and took out three jade slips, "The reason why the Eighteen Body Training Charts are cheap is because they are easy to copy, and these spells The jade slips cannot be duplicated at all, so the price is naturally more expensive."

"These two spells are the Water Curtain Cover and the Water Dragon Art. This Water Dragon Art is also called the Small Water Dragon Art. It is a relatively common type among acquired monks. There is also a Great Water Dragon Art that cannot be learned until the innate stage. .”

Yao Guo didn't know much about water dragon art, but she was very familiar with the name of the water curtain cover, and she was pleasantly surprised: "Is this water curtain cover the same effect as the top-level defensive charm?" How many spirit stones!There is no need to buy defensive charms in the future.

Lao Xu nodded and said: "The effect is the same, but the magic charm also has the benefits of the magic charm, it does not consume much spiritual power, many people have learned defensive spells, but they still have a few magic charms on their bodies for emergency, after all life and death At a critical moment, spiritual power is very important, but the elixir to restore spiritual power is much more expensive than the defensive talisman, so it is more cost-effective to buy the talisman."

Yao Guo suddenly realized, no wonder those powerful monks would often use magic talismans to attack people even though they know how to spell, the reason is to save more spiritual energy.

"Then how powerful is this Water Dragon Art?" Yao Guo asked again.

"Hmm..." Lao Xu pondered for a while, "A small water dragon can create a hole more than one meter deep in the ground! But after practicing the small water dragon technique, a total of eight water dragons can be released, all of which are comparable to a large water dragon. attacked."

Yao Guo smacked her lips, thinking that this little water dragon technique is quite suitable for her now. Apart from throwing the fire talisman, she has no other means of attack. In case she meets a monk or a monster who is not afraid of the fire talisman , wouldn't he die an ugly death...

"Is there another jade slip?" Yao Guo's eyes fell on the three jade slips. Besides the water dragon spell and the water curtain, there should be another spell!
Lao Xu threw two of the jade slips to Yao Guo, and put the remaining one in the storage bag, "This jade slip is not something you can afford, the water curtain cover and the water dragon formula , a total of 20 yuan high-grade spirit stones, girl, pay it!"

"Cut." Yao Guo pouted, and asked unwillingly: "It's not the first time I've bought something from you, so just tell me! What kind of spell is recorded in that jade slip? "

Lao Xu glanced at her, and said lightly: "This is the technique of a demon cultivator. It is called Poison Water Technique. It needs to take various poisons. Although the power is huge, the backlash is also terrifying. No woman likes to bleed all over her body. It looks like pus, if you are still interested, I can tell you the selling price..."

"No need, no need." Yao Guo quickly waved his hands and said, this old guy is really capable, he can even get the skills of a demon cultivator, but this kind of skills is really perverted enough.

Yao Guo bought a manual of monsters and a manual of spiritual herbs at some ordinary stalls.

After she learns the water dragon art, she can go to the wild to hunt monsters. Those delicious monster meats that contain spiritual power really make people drool!

……

After being locked up in the house for another half a month, Lin Yingqin came back from Heisong Mountain just after Yao Guo had learned the basics of the water curtain cover and the water dragon art.

Lin Yingqin put the thousands of taels of silver that she just went to Shengsheng Village to exchange, and some miscellaneous gold and silver jewelry, without packing them in a brocade box, and put them in a big bag, leaving them all to the eldest lady.

The eldest lady doesn't love any spirit stones. As an ordinary person, what she loves most is fame and money.

Before leaving, the eldest lady stuffed a few sets of new clothes just delivered by Babao Embroidery, and even Lin Yingqin and Yao Guo got a finely embroidered robe.

"Mother, I will miss you. If I learn the skills, I will definitely come down to see you." Yao Yunqing was crying so hard that those who didn't know thought she was going to get married.

Yao Yunyu stood on the side with a faint smile, looking at the eyes of the eldest lady, without much emotion, but with a hint of relief and excitement, she and Yao Guo had the same thoughts, and could finally get rid of this cage...

Yufeng Mountain is three or four days away from Jinyang City, but Lin Yingqin has her own flying magic weapon. Sitting on the green boat, they all feel inexplicably nervous as they look at the smaller and smaller towns below.

Li Yun was envious of Lin Yingqin's flying magic weapon, Yao Yunyu and Yao Yunqing were afraid of heights, but Yao Guo felt that the flying magic weapon was not as safe as an airplane. His plane was so tightly wrapped, and there were still accidents. !And this small boat didn't even have any protective measures...

The boat flew over towns and mountains, and stopped at the foot of Yufeng Mountain in two or three hours.

For a huge sect of cultivating immortals, there are naturally restrictions at the foot of the mountain. They can only go up the mountain on foot, and cannot take the flying magic weapon, otherwise they will be attacked by the restrictions.

After walking the mountain road for more than an hour, Yao Guo finally saw a tall stone gate with the words Yufeng Mountain written on it.

Yufeng Mountain recruits a batch of new disciples every month. Sometimes they are lucky enough to recruit one or two, but sometimes they fail to recruit any, because most of the people who come to participate in the entrance examination are ordinary people. It's rare to see him a few times a year.

Lin Yingqin came here in time, and today is the day of the monthly entrance examination. She only needs to take the three sisters Yao Yunyu to test their strength and spiritual roots, and then let them hunt and kill a monster in the early days of Acquired That's it.

"Uncle Lin." As soon as he approached the gate, a gatekeeper disciple greeted Lin Yingqin.

"Who is here to participate in the entrance examination today?" Lin Yingqin's expression was cold, she couldn't tell that she was asking about something, but it seemed that someone owed her.

The gatekeeper didn't think there was anything wrong, and replied respectfully: "Today, there is the fifth lady of the Xu family, the young master of the Xiao family, and an unknown young master. They are all monks with acquired cultivation. The others are Those ordinary people."

Lin Yingqin frowned. She didn't expect that there would be three Houtian cultivators today, plus the three sisters Yao Yunyu, not six Houtian cultivators...

Lin Yingqin had a sad face, and left without even saying a word of thanks. Yao Guo thought to himself, this Lin Yingqin must be very unpopular on Yufeng Mountain. With such a master at the booth, the future is very worrying!
There is a bottomless cliff between the gate of Yufeng Mountain and each branch hall. Looking at the bottomless gully in front of him, Yao Guo feels like a mountain has been split by a knife.

There is a rickety suspension bridge between the two peaks, which makes people doubt its quality. If it falls halfway, it is not funny...

Yao Guo held onto the handrail tightly and followed Lin Yingqin cautiously. When she got to the middle, she was not as nervous as before, so she looked left and right, wanting to enjoy the scenery of this strange peak.

"What is that!" Yao Guo's eyes widened in disbelief. Not far from this suspension bridge, there is a narrower and lower-quality suspension bridge. The most terrifying thing is that there is no handrail on that suspension bridge. A rope is attached to some jerry-built planks.

On such a terrifying suspension bridge, there are more than a dozen half-grown children, or girls and teenagers, walking at the same speed as a turtle, what the hell is this!It will kill you if you fall...

"That's the entrance examination for ordinary people. As long as they can walk across the suspension bridge, Yufeng Mountain is willing to accept even fake spiritual roots." Li Yun explained.

"It's so inhumane." Yao Guo muttered in a low voice, this way of ignoring human life immediately made her impression of Yufeng Mountain greatly reduced.

I remembered that when I went to Shengsheng Village for the first time, the young man in white who claimed to be a disciple of Yufeng Mountain burned an ordinary person with a magic talisman.

Following Lin Yingqin, they came all the way to the central hall. Before Yao Guo had a clear view of the situation in the hall, Lin Yingqin and Li Yun walked up and bowed respectfully to the top.

"Yingqin, these are the three children you brought! Tell them to test their spiritual roots. Those children on the suspension bridge, as long as they are alive, the evening should come..."

A very, very kind, very, very kind voice came, and what she said made Yao Guo angry, this disgusting old woman!
"Yes." Lin Yingqin replied, and led them to a white stone.

The snow-white and translucent stone exudes a soft luster. This is a spiritual stone specially used for testing spiritual roots. As long as a person with spiritual roots in the body presses the stone, the color will appear on it according to the attributes of its spiritual roots. The color type The less it is, the fewer types of spiritual roots this person has, and the higher his aptitude.

"Rhyme, test it first!" Lin Yingqin said lightly.

A gleam of luck flashed in Yao Yunyu's eyes, luckily she was not placed behind Yao Zihan, otherwise she would be the one who would be ashamed waiting.

A few years ago, Lin Yingqin tested the spiritual roots of three of them. Although Yao Yunyu didn't know much about these things, she could tell from Lin Yingqin's eyes that Yao Zihan's talent must be very good...
