The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

Chapter 25 Three Treasures (a bit slower, please read on!)

Ever since he acquired the magical power "Star Picking Hand" and the spear technique "Red Snow", Lei Zhan has entered the quiet room again.

For ordinary cultivators, it would be a great fortune to obtain just one of these profound techniques, but Lei Zhan had obtained two at once, so naturally he had to thoroughly comprehend them.

Besides, he also wants to go out and explore the world.

Living in the Water Palace and being blessed by the immortal Ju Hua is certainly comfortable, but one's cultivation will never be as solid as that gained through hard work and adventure outside.

After all, jade cannot be made into a useful object without being carved.

But embarking on the path of cultivating immortals... is embarking on an extremely bumpy and dangerous road.

On the road to becoming an immortal, countless uncut gems of talent have been broken into pieces!
According to the original timeline, he died in the process of "carving", and even his body was not found. At that time, he was only at the Wanxiang level.

……

Lei Zhan passed through the tall and deep corridor and came to the Water Palace Hall.

The hall is quiet and ancient, with huge bronze pillars standing there, each one thousands of feet in size. Under the bronze pillars are bright yellow cushions, each thousands of feet in size.

On one of the cushions, a thin old man in a Taoist robe sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. It seemed that time had left no trace on his body.

Leizhan took a quick look and saw the immortal Juhua sitting cross-legged on the cushion, and walked towards him quickly.

"Master." Leizhan saluted.

"After more than a month of seclusion, you've finally come out today? Are you planning to fight that puppet?" Ju Hua opened his eyes and looked at his disciple. While six years or so seemed like a pittance compared to his long years of cultivation, Lei Zhan's performance had only endeared him to his only disciple.

"Master, I have been studying the art of spear for more than a month and feel that I have gained something. I came here today just to have a fight with your black stone puppet." Lei Zhan said with a smile.

The immortal Ju Hua is an immortal who has lived for millions of years. The three disasters and nine calamities that he is facing are becoming more and more severe, even more severe than the heavenly tribulations of some immortal cultivators. In fact, his end is already approaching.

Since you don't have to practice all the time, you naturally have plenty of time.

Lei Zhan was like this on weekdays, but when he gained something, he would come to find his master, the Immortal Ju Hua, to fight with the puppet. Sometimes, the Immortal Ju Hua would even personally guide the fight.

"Fight with that black stone puppet?" Ju Huaxianren smiled slightly. "My master and I haven't fought each other for several years. Today, there's no need for a puppet."

"No need for puppets?" Lei Zhan understood in his heart, Master was going to do it himself today?

"Come on, attack me!" said the immortal Ju Hua, and then stood up directly.

"Yes." Lei Zhan looked at his master and replied.

In an instant, the fighting spirit in Leizhan's eyes seemed to be real, and a tremendous spear intent burst out from his body.

"Hmm." Immortal Ju Hua looked at the disciple with overwhelming aura and nodded slightly. "This aura is much stronger than it was a few years ago."

"Master, be careful." Lei Zhan reminded, and suddenly a silver spear with golden divine patterns flowing on it appeared in his hand. It was the Cold Shadow Divine Spear, a divine weapon refined by the blood of gods and demons.

call.

Leizhan's figure was as fast as lightning, turning into a streak of light, and the spear in his hand was like a dragon swimming in the water, moving at an extremely fast speed, and instantly stabbed at the immortal Juhua who was standing on the cushion.

"Hmm." Ju Huaxian stood on the futon with his hands behind his back and responded calmly. He raised his hand and slowly extended two fingers, putting them together to form a sword gesture, and gently stroked across.

Suddenly, a sword light flashed, and with a "bang", the sword finger and Lei Zhan's spear intertwined and collided wildly.

boom! boom! boom!
The Cold Shadow Divine Spear, which already had the foundation of a Earth-grade magical weapon, was refined with the blood of gods and demons by Lei Zhan, becoming even sharper. In the hands of Lei Zhan, whose spear skills had greatly improved, it contained endless mysteries.

The spear was like a dragon, surging and mighty. The spear thrust out, and countless spear shadows enveloped it. The spear swept across, and it was even more unstoppable.

Lei Zhan used all his skills of the "Red Snow" spear technique that he had mastered, but no matter how profound the spear technique was, it was blocked by the sword of the immortal Ju Hua.

"Hmph!" Lei Zhan's spear technique changed, sometimes surging like the blue sea, sometimes exploding like a blazing flame.

"Hmm? You've completely integrated these two minor techniques into your profound spearmanship." Immortal Ju Hua smiled. "No wonder you came looking for me today. Your spearmanship has improved a lot compared to before."

"Water and fire millstone!" Lei Zhan also smiled, and the Hanying gun in his hand suddenly became extremely heavy, and he lashed it down fiercely.

Wow!
Suddenly, a massive water-fire millstone appeared around Leizhan. The two distinct forces of water and fire intertwined to form a massive millstone. At the center of the millstone, spear beams collided with the water and fire, creating a terrifying, strangling force. The water-fire millstone surrounded Leizhan. The spear in his hand simultaneously manifested two completely opposing forces of water and fire, like a miniature water-fire millstone. The one about to be thrown into the millstone and "obliterated" was, of course, the Immortal Juhua.

"It's a bit slow!" The immortal Ju Hua lightly pointed his sword finger, and a sword light crossed the sky, and in an instant it turned into a green stream of light, and the speed was extremely fast.

"It's this move again." Lei Zhan's face showed a hint of solemnity, "The first move of the Red Snow Spear Technique - Qi Swallowing the Long Rainbow!"

Wow!
The spear light was flying.

With the power of the Red Snow spear technique, the Cold Shadow Spear danced wildly, whistling across the space like lightning. The water and fire millstones in the air were spinning faster and faster, and their power was growing stronger and stronger, even faintly tearing the surrounding space apart.

"Break!" Immortal Juhua smiled.

Suddenly, an invisible sword energy appeared out of thin air and directly hit the Cold Shadow Spear. The powerful sword energy made it difficult for Lei Zhan to resist.

"Stop it!" Lei Zhan groaned, and with a thought, extremely complex divine patterns flashed faintly on his palms.

boom!
The spear light collided with the sword light, and a loud bang echoed throughout the hall in an instant.

After a long time, the sword light dissipated, and the water and fire millstone hovering above the hall also disappeared out of thin air, turning into a spear with flowing golden patterns.

"Not bad. Not bad." Immortal Ju Hua stepped forward and said, "Your spearmanship combined with your magical powers..."

Immortal Ju Hua saw clearly that although the spear skills displayed by Lei Zhan just now were mysterious, they were always within his expectations.

But at the end, a sudden burst of terrifying power, a spear in those seemingly ordinary hands, suddenly became extremely terrifying. Although Ju Huaxian had never seen the magical power of the Star-Picking Hand, there were not many methods that could instantly increase strength by a large margin.

"Unfortunately, with my divine power, I can only use this magical power twenty to thirty times at most." Leizhan also showed a smile. The first time he used the magical power of Star-Picking Hand, he was extremely satisfied with its terrifying power.

"Leizhan." Juhua Immortal said sternly, "You came here today, besides fighting with the puppets, are you planning to go out and explore?"

"This... can't be hidden from Master. Disciple does have this plan." Lei Zhan nodded.

“A young eagle spreads its wings, a latent dragon dives into the sea; it has always been this way. It has always been this way, and it will always be this way.”

Ju Huaxianren smiled and said, "Even if you don't tell me, with your current growth rate, I will let you go out and explore the world in a few years."

"Yes." Leizhan nodded.

The master has bestowed upon you various methods and treasures, but you also need to work hard on your own.

A master can help, guide, and support you, but what is more important is that the disciple fights and works hard!
Lei Zhan looked at the Immortal Ju Hua and said, "This magical power is something I'm already familiar with. As for spearmanship, although I have some understanding of the second form, if I want to fully comprehend it... it would be difficult to do it in isolation. The same goes for my understanding of the Tao."

What Lei Zhan said was naturally true. This spear technique, "Red Snow," was originally realized by the Red Snow God through battle and slaughter, so if one wanted to practice it, fighting was inevitable.

Moreover, if all the secret techniques can be cultivated to perfection over the years, then there will be no such thing as a bottleneck.

"Yes." Immortal Ju Hua nodded, and he immediately understood his disciple's thoughts.

"In that case, I will allow you to go out and gain experience."

Immortal Ju Hua said in a deep voice, "As for this cave, I will keep it on Qianqiu Island. The North Sea where Qianqiu Island is located is also a good place for training. You can train there first."

"Northern Ocean?" Leizhan nodded. He hadn't yet reached the level of a Primordial Spirit Daoist, so he couldn't carry the Water Palace with him. Naturally, he couldn't stray too far from the Water Palace during this adventure.

However, his master, the immortal Ju Hua, still chose to leave the Water Palace on Qianqiu Island, which made it convenient for him to come back at any time after his adventures.

Immortal Ju Hua looked at Lei Zhan and said, "I have prepared several treasures for you. I was originally going to give them to you in a few years. Now that you are going to go out and explore the world, as your master, I will naturally give them to you directly."

"Three treasures?" Lei Zhan was stunned. Many immortal cultivators would naturally prepare a few life-saving treasures when they ventured out, but he hadn't expected that his master, the Immortal Ju Hua, had already started preparing them for him.

"Leizhan." Immortal Juhua looked at Leizhan.

"When a cultivator embarks on the path of cultivation, he must contend with the heavens and the earth. He must also be wary of fellow cultivators of the human race, as well as the ancient gods and demons still active in hidden corners."

Immortal Ju Hua said in a deep voice, "With the great magical powers left by your first master, your current strength is among the best even among the Wanxiang Immortals. You are going out to explore today, and these three treasures that protect your body and life will also give you a lot of chances of survival in times of crisis."

I have been thinking about a question recently. The weapons refined by the blood of gods and demons are because they are worried that gods and demons do not have weapons that can always accompany them. At the same time, they can absorb various murderous auras and violent spirits to upgrade the weapons. So if this weapon is armor... can it be the same?
