My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 767 Earthly Evil Technique—Swordsmanship!
In addition, Jiang Xinghuo also noticed that the game text said that the tomb of the Emperor of the Wheel was only one of the secrets of the Wheel Diagram.

That means this picture hides other unknown secrets.

So he activated the Sky-Peeking Eye and the Fiery Eyes and continued to examine the wheel diagram, trying to find out other secrets hidden in it.

But the result was somewhat disappointing to him. Apart from the map of the mausoleum of Emperor Zhuanlun, he could not see anything else.

Jiang Xinghuo didn't take it to heart. He just put the two pictures into the void drawer, and then counted the money that the Taoist children had paid for their lives.

If the wheel diagram really hides unknown secrets, then after arriving at the tomb of the Emperor of the Wheel, relevant clues may be automatically triggered.

It's no use for him to worry now.

"You carefully counted the items left by the Qingniu Taoist Boy and found that they were all magical instruments and props commonly used by disciples of the Lu Sheng Sect. They are basically of no use to you."

"But you can throw it into the Heavenly Soldiers Diagram and transform it into spiritual energy to nourish the heavenly soldiers and generals. When the spiritual energy becomes dense enough, the wisdom of these soldiers and generals will also increase, and they will be more and more helpful to you."

Jiang Xinghuo began to choose according to the list given by the game, and most of the materials and props were thrown into the Tianbing Map by him.

The Heavenly Soldiers Map can transform it into spiritual energy by itself to nourish the heavenly soldiers and generals.

However, this behavior is irreversible. Any material props that have been converted into spiritual energy cannot be used again, which is equivalent to destroying the props.

Therefore, Jiang Xinghuo's choice was relatively cautious, leaving only a few things.

This is also something that can't be helped.

Those Taoist boys were just ordinary disciples of the Tianshi Dao lineage, and they wouldn't have anything special on them. The most they had were various primary spellcasting materials, like cinnabar talisman paper, and the Five Emperors' coins, among other common items.

But it was not without any gain. At least these Taoist children still had some secret manuals of Taoist magic.

"You have obtained a small earth-moving technique secret book (excellent), a complete set of transformations of the magic talisman (excellent), a grass-character sword technique secret book (common), a ten thousand trees and forests technique secret book (common), a mountain-moving technique secret book (excellent), and a Gengjin lung-nourishing technique secret book (excellent)."

There are a total of six books of magic techniques. These are the items that Jiang Xinghuo found out to be the most valuable to him from among the many miscellaneous items.

The six secret books correspond to spells of different attributes.

If Jiang Xinghuo wants to deduce the Thirty-Six Great Tiangang Techniques and the Seventy-Two Great Disha Techniques, he must be open-minded, absorb all the knowledge, and combine the strengths of hundreds of schools.

Of course, the most important thing is to have enough incense to burn as firewood.

Jiang Xinghuo suppressed his wandering thoughts and began to check out the magic techniques he had found.

"The Small Earth-flying Technique Secret Book (Excellent Item), an intermediate escape technique of the Heavenly Master's Daoist school, is a simplified version of the Earth-Falling Technique. It can connect the nodes of the earth veins with mana, and allow one to fly in the earth within a range of a hundred feet. The mana requirement is not high, as long as one can find the nodes of the earth veins."

"Do you want to use this secret book immediately?"

Jiang Xinghuo easily chose yes.

This technique is indeed useless to him.

Because the effect of the dragon-raising technique is far better than this small earth-flying technique.

But he still chose to practice this technique in order to strengthen his own skills. By then, he might be able to use these escape techniques to evolve the Tiangang technique - Golden Light that Flies on the Ground!
"You chose to use this small book of earth-control techniques."

"Learning, please wait..."

"Study completed."

"You have successfully mastered the Small Earth Movement Technique."

While the text prompts flashed in the game, Jiang Xinghuo also felt the changes in reality. A large amount of information appeared in his mind, all of which were related to the method of Xiaozongdishu.

With the foundation of the Dragon Vein Chapter of the Dragon-Raising Technique, the Small Earth-Zong Technique was not difficult at all for him, and he easily mastered the key points without any effort.

Then, Jiang Xinghuo continued to look at other things.

"The complete set of transformations of the Divine Travel Talisman (excellent item). The Divine Travel Talisman is a kind of talisman that is passed down secretly by the Heavenly Master. It can bless the Divine Travel Technique on the talisman. After activating it with magic power, it can automatically operate the Divine Travel Technique."

"But because the Taoist talismans are too complicated, before writing them one must burn incense to worship the ancestors, hold an altar and worship the master, and then use special materials to make them."

"So a Taoist master developed this method, which can avoid those tedious ritual steps and use the fastest method, regardless of materials and location, without any preparation, to create a magic talisman that is no less powerful than the original one."

Jiang Xinghuo read the text of this secret book twice and felt that this ability was very similar to the "Talisman" technique in the Disha technique.

Among the seventy-two earthly evil techniques, there is one called "Talisman", which comes from the Record of the Common Origin of the Three Religions, although its specific abilities are not explained in detail.

But I think it is similar to the description in the game text, no need to open an altar, burn incense, or make all kinds of tedious preparations.

He can draw talismans at will, otherwise it would not be listed as one of the seventy-two techniques.

Does that mean that, with this complete book of the transformations of the magic talismans, I can deduce the art of the Earthly Evil Talismans?
Jiang Xinghuo decided to give it a try first.

You have to try it to know whether it works or not.

"You activated the Sky-Watcher's Eye."

"You are trying to use the Sky-Watcher's Eye to evolve the talisman technique you imagined. It is being tested. Please wait..."

"Detection completed."

"The Divine Movement Talisman Transformation Collection can transform the magic you imagine, but it requires sufficient samples as the nutrient for the evolution."

"Current sample size: 1/10 (primary)."

When Jiang Xinghuo saw the game text, he was immediately delighted.

This means that his idea is feasible. As long as he can find enough samples, the talisman technique in the Disha technique can be evolved.

Then I will have a goal next.

This also gave him an idea. Since the art of talismans could be evolved, other techniques might also be able to evolve.

Jiang Xinghuo put away the magic talisman and then looked at the remaining items.

"The Secret Book of Grass-shaped Sword Techniques (Ordinary Item), the Heavenly Master's Daoist lineage has always been famous in the secular world for its amazing magic. Various powerful spells emerge in an endless stream, and can kill people without being seen."

"But hundreds of years ago, a freak appeared. He didn't like magic, but preferred to study swordsmanship. He used Gengjin magic to nourish the lung metal qi for a hundred years and created the Nine-door swordsmanship that was passed down to the Tianshi lineage. Since then, the Tianshi lineage has also had the way of close combat."

"The Grass Sword Technique is one of them. It is the entry point to the Nine Great Sword Techniques. It can infuse the lung gold energy into the grass roots, turning them into infinite flying swords to kill people from a distance."

"But to practice this sword technique, you must use the Gengjin Nourishing Lung Method as a foundation, otherwise you won't be able to exert its corresponding power."

Jiang Xinghuo flipped through the text and happened to find a few secret books that included the Gengjin Lung Nourishing Method. Combined with the five internal organs gods he cultivated in Wufu Town, this secret book might be of great use to him.

"You have chosen to use the Caozi Sword Technique Secret Book." "Learning, please wait..."

"You have successfully mastered the Caozi Sword Technique."

Jiang Xinghuo only felt a shock, as if an electric current was running through his nerve center. In his mind, there appeared images of fierce sword energy. But when he looked closely, he found that the source of the sword energy was actually seemingly ordinary weeds.

"The Grass Sword Technique... the sword really lives up to its name."

Jiang Xinghuo opened his eyes and completely comprehended the subtlety of the sword technique. He swung his hand casually, and the Gengjin Qi in his lungs flowed. The shadow of a god appeared above his lungs, and a sharp white light flew out, instantly piercing a hole in the wooden coffee table.

He did not understand the Gengjin lung nourishing method, but he had already developed the lung spirit. With the Gengjin breath of the lung spirit, he activated the sword techniques, which were more powerful than ordinary lung nourishing methods. Combined with the Yuanci Sword Sutra and various swords he had obtained before, Jiang Xinghuo felt that it was time to deduce the swordsmanship in the Disha technique.

This is a real killing technique, and the power is just right. It doesn't require all-out efforts like the big and small Ruyi. Both normal attacks and big moves can be used.

"You activated the Sky-Watcher's Eye."

A silver-white virtual panel popped up in front of Jiang Xinghuo's eyes. A large amount of data appeared on the panel. Then, various data and information gradually evolved into a figure, holding a long sword and performing various exquisite swordsmanship.

He turned over all his knowledge of swordsmanship from his mind and evolved it with the Eye of the Sky-Peeker.

The information was also delivered in the game at the right time.

"You have combined the sword-flying techniques of the Yuanci Sword Sutra, the close combat techniques of the Caozi Sword Technique, and the killing intent of the Dragon Slaying Sword. You have also combined them with the Taoist inner alchemy techniques, the technique of the Yin Spirit leaving the body, and the technique of the corpse transformation into an immortal. You have combined all the essences into one, created a prototype of a sword-fighting supernatural power, and brought forth new ideas."

"Do you want to spend 5000 incense sticks to fully evolve this magical skill?"

Jiang Xinghuo took a deep breath and chose yes without hesitation.

He earned nearly 20000 incense points by killing the three dragon lords of the Dragon Guard Court. He was not so stingy as to give 5000 incense points.

"You have lost the incense - 5000."

"Evolving, please wait..."

The game entered a stagnant state, and light flickered on the silver-white virtual panel.

The sword marks are like flowing light, and the golden energy is like flying stars.

His own unique sword techniques kept emerging in his mind.

Jiang Xinghuo closed his eyes tightly, slowly digesting the memories in his mind, and subconsciously gestured with his hands.

The house-guarding sword hanging on the wall hummed, and finally with a clang, it flew out of its sheath, circling around Jiang Xinghuo, dragging out sharp sword lights, like a white dragon! !

After a long time, Jiang Xinghuo opened his eyes. He waved his right hand and the sword fell into his hand. He felt a blood connection spontaneously.

"Please name your newly created sword skill:"

A dialog box pops up on the screen.

Jiang Xinghuo put down the sword in his hand and entered the name he had prepared long ago: Dishafa - swordsmanship!
"Swordsmanship: A mysterious technique that combines sword and qi. It is a method of controlling the sword with the soul. In a moment, one can escape a hundred meters away. The sword light can kill people invisibly."

However, although he had deduced this "sword skill" ability, due to his shallow foundation, he was unable to use it as freely as a true sword immortal.

The sword light can only be effective within a hundred meters at most. It is also necessary to collect various sword-related techniques and then integrate them into this "sword technique" to fill in the gaps.

Jiang Xinghuo looked at the house-guarding sword in his hand and thought that he was now a sword cultivator after all, and it was time to get a suitable sword for self-defense. He went back to find Taoist Shen Ji Bai Lian to see if he could melt those Yuanci flying swords and forge a real sword that could be used for close combat and as a flying sword.

Finally, there are three secret books left.

He directly chose to use the Gengjin Lung Nourishing Method and mastered the method of nourishing the lung qi, which can enhance the power and sharpness of the sword energy.

The Wanmu Senluo Technique is a magic method for controlling plant and wood creatures, but it can only exert its power in the deep mountains and is completely useless in other places.

The last technique, "Mountain Moving Technique", is a method of controlling objects. It has a very high upper limit and a very low lower limit. How much power it can exert depends entirely on the depth and strength of one's legal ability.

A cultivator with strong cultivation can move mountains and seas, but a cultivator with weak cultivation has difficulty even moving a stool. With Jiang Xinghuo's current cultivation level, it is impossible to move mountains and seas, and he can barely move the weight of several adults.

At this point, everything has been accounted for.

The biggest gain was the evolution of sword skills, and also the discovery of ideas for evolving talisman skills.

It can be said to be a fruitful harvest.

"Where are you going to explore next?"

"Will you leave Dragon Gate and explore other areas of the secular world? Or will you go to the mausoleum of the Wheel-Turning Emperor to find out what's going on?"

Jiang Xinghuo chose the latter.

If he had not come across the map of the mausoleum of Emperor Zhuanlun, he would have been exploring Lingnan. But now that he has discovered this clue, he must not let it go easily.

Besides, he is the Wheel-Turning Emperor among the Ten Great Emperors. What if the whereabouts of the Heavenly Soldiers Map is found in his mausoleum?

"You chose to go to the mausoleum of the Emperor of the Wheel of Time."

"On the way, please wait..."

"Use your divine speed to hurry on your way. You are expected to arrive at your destination in about half an hour."

Jiang Xinghuo waited for exactly half an hour.

A subsequent text came from the game.

"You have arrived at the mausoleum of the Emperor of the Wheel of Time."

"You came to a wilderness. There is a stone tablet standing not far ahead. That is the entrance to the mausoleum. However, only those Qingniu Taoist children know how to get in. Although they gave you the map, they concealed the way to get in."

Tsk, Jiang Xinghuo took a look and thought, they still dare to play tricks on me, so I will definitely not let them go next time they meet.

However, if they think they can stop me in this way, those disciples of Tianshi Fadao are really blind.

"You activated the realm of life."

"You have given new life to this wilderness and that stone tablet."

"Under your will, the entrance to the mausoleum will soon appear before your eyes. There is no need for any special method, just a command."

"Do you want to enter it immediately?"
