This is a cultivation game, but its operation is terrible.

He threw aside a large pile of alchemy materials, including the hundred-year-old spiritual herbs, and spent nearly an hour refining the ten-year-old spiritual herbs into nearly a thousand Qi Refining Pills. These trash pills wouldn't do him any good now, so he decided to sell them to his good brother.

After tidying up the materials, he flipped through the spells he had pulled out, and was slightly disappointed after glancing at them; there were only three high-grade spells.

【Close-up Step】: A high-grade magic-level footwork technique that allows one to travel within a short distance, but consumes a great deal of spiritual energy.

【Fire Python Technique】: A high-grade fire-type spell that condenses fire spiritual energy into the shape of a python. Its attack power depends on the strength of the spiritual energy and is limited to those with fire spiritual roots.

【Endless Flowing Water Technique】: A high-grade water-based spell that uses water spiritual energy to repair physical injuries. The recovery speed depends on the strength of the spiritual energy. It is limited to those with water spiritual roots.

Jiang Liu learned all of them: a footwork technique, an attack spell, and a support spell. There was nothing special about them.

He added three new spells, but he looked down on the other mid-grade spells.

Although he could already learn all five elements of magic, he still understood the principle of not biting off more than he could chew. There was really no need to learn a bunch of useless skills. Since the skills had no cooldown, he could release them infinitely as long as he had enough spiritual energy. There was no need to fill in the gaps.

After selecting the spells, he looked at the backpack full of magical artifacts.

Sure enough, there were only 4 high-grade magic weapons. Only 4 high-grade magic weapons from thousands of draws... the odds are...

No wonder the official seller dared to sell the first recharge gift pack for 3,000 spirit stones for a random high-grade magic weapon; that price is equivalent to two guaranteed rewards.

[Palm Seal]: A superior magical artifact that can suppress targets whose cultivation level is lower than that of the caster. The suppression effect is reduced on targets in the Foundation Establishment stage, and it is ineffective on targets above the Foundation Establishment stage.

【Illusion Staff】: A superior magic artifact that can create an illusion with a range of no more than 10*10. The effect of the illusion depends on the strength of the spiritual energy and consumes a great deal of spiritual energy.

【Water-Dividing Sword】: A superior magic weapon that amplifies the strength of water-based spiritual energy and comes with the superior spell Water-Dividing Sword.

【Meteorite Bead】: A superior magical artifact, a one-time consumable. It absorbs the power of stars into its body. Once fully charged, it can cause devastating damage. Use with caution.

"Wow, as expected of a top-grade magic weapon, they're all pretty awesome."

Jiang Liu glanced at the four high-grade magic artifacts, his eyes gleaming, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud, quite satisfied.

The Palm Seal, a magical artifact several times more powerful than the Body-Binding Ring, has now been changed from immobilizing to suppressing.

The Illusion Staff, a ten-square-meter illusion—can this thing create an adult-themed illusion? I'll try it out myself in a bit.

The Water-Dividing Sword and the Rising Sun Sword can finally retire.

Meteorite Bead, a high-grade magic artifact that can be consumed in one go... Awesome! How do I absorb the power of stars in the game?

Jiang Liu was very satisfied that he could use all four magical artifacts. The final Meteorite Pearl could even be used as a trump card. Although he was kind to everyone and had no enemies, he could not be too careful.

The Palm Imprint replaced the Restraining Ring, the Illusion Staff was put into the secondary weapon slot, the Water-Splitting Sword replaced the Rising Sun Sword, and the Meteor Bead was placed in the backpack...

He rummaged through his backpack and found a few more low-grade and mid-grade magic items, almost filling up all his equipment slots.

I've done thousands of draws and haven't gotten a single pair of shoes. Haha, maybe they're limited-edition items?

The Dividing Water Sword replaced the Rising Sun Sword, and I found a low-grade magic sword and a mid-grade magic sword in my backpack, thus completing the Three Spirit Sword Formation.

After a series of operations, Jiang Liu's combat power increased significantly, and he gained five top-grade spiritual roots, five-elemental physiques, several high-grade spells, and several magical artifacts.

He opened his character panel, equipment bar, and skill bar simultaneously, staring at these three interfaces with high fighting spirit, eager to find someone to test his combat power immediately.

arena?

No one accepted the challenge!

In reality?

They're all worthless scoundrels!

In the game?

Senior Brother, let's have a fight!

Chapter 48: Farewell to My Senior Brother, Opening a Shop on Taobao (Please Read On!)

Plot from episodes 1-10.

Lingyun Sect Martial Arts Arena.

Jiang Liu held the Water-Splitting Sword in his left hand and the Illusion Staff in his right, exuding an imposing aura and surging spiritual energy as he stared intently at his opponent.

Twenty meters away.

Perhaps sensing a threat from Jiang Liu, the senior brother's expression became extremely solemn.

You know you are going to die, and you are in despair...

【jump over】

Jiang Liu, adorned with eighteen magical artifacts, twirled his Water-Splitting Sword and retracted his cumbersome Illusion Staff. With an air of nonchalance, he flicked his long robes and pondered, "Today, it is time to decide who is the senior disciple of the Lingyun Sect!"

"Senior Brother, please forgive Junior Brother..."

The senior brother had no time to listen to his rambling. In the instant the plot skipped over, he sped over on his three crippled bodies and unleashed a cold slash with his sword.

"I am not the same person I was yesterday!"

Jiang Liu merely smiled at his aggressive senior brother and casually swung his sword.

Dividing Stream Sword!

A line of water rippled out, breaking the senior brother's Frosty Sword and then his afterimage!

With the blessing of the Five Elements Top-Grade Spiritual Roots, the Five Elements Dharma Body, and the High-Grade Water-type Magic Weapon, this sword strike even unleashed the power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

After forcing his senior brother back with a single sword strike, Jiang Liu tried a new technique. With a series of taps of his five fingers, he quickly formed a hand seal, and a nearly ten-meter-long flaming fire python materialized out of thin air, crashing towards his senior brother's roaring, blood-red maw!

boom!

The ten-meter-long fire python surged like a dragon, crashing into the senior brother and creating a fire tornado several meters high. The aftershocks of the explosion swept across an area of ​​dozens of meters, leaving even Jiang Liu, the spellcaster, somewhat dumbfounded.

Is this a high-grade spell?

So strong!

It wasn't that the spell was too powerful, but rather that he had stacked too many buffs, which amplified the power of the Fire Serpent Technique by more than double. An ordinary Fire Serpent Technique is only a four- or five-meter-long fire serpent, which is naturally incomparable to this ten-meter-long fire serpent.

"That's incredible! That's incredible!"

Jiang Liu was excited. It was the first time he had beaten his senior brother, and he felt great. He could finally get revenge for the suffering he had endured from his senior brother in the past!

Senior Brother, I beg you, please hold on a little longer.

After the fire python exploded and the fire tornado several meters long dissipated, the senior brother's hair was disheveled, his clothes were torn, and his breathing was unstable, making him look extremely disheveled.

Without waiting for his senior brother to catch his breath, Jiang Liu pressed his advantage without hesitation.

"Fire Serpent Technique! Heart Piercing Drop! Fire-Blowing Palm! Water Spirit Sword Qi!"

Jiang Liu unleashed a series of attacks, forcing his senior brother to flee repeatedly, tumbling and rolling in a sorry state. Jiang Liu found this extremely satisfying and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He used to be the one jumping around and causing trouble.

Today, it's the eldest brother who's been jumping around like a madman.

You've finally met your match, despite your incredible luck!

"Enough, you are no longer my match. I will use this final move, the Three Spirits Sword Formation, to bid you farewell."

After bullying his senior brother for a while and venting his anger, Jiang Liu, wanting to try out a new move, unleashed the Three Spirits Sword Formation.

The Three Spirit Sword Formation is activated!

The moment the skill was released, three magic swords suddenly flew out of his backpack and hovered around him in mid-air.

When the magic swords were drawn, corresponding to the attributes of the three magic swords, the fire, metal, and wood elemental energies within his body burst forth and surged into the three magic swords like a tidal wave.

The magic sword swayed, shining with red, gold and green light, and the power it displayed shook the surrounding space, its aura intimidating!

When the spiritual energy was fully charged, the magic sword trembled and shone brightly!

"Three Spirit Sword Formation, activate!"

Jiang Liu let out a low shout and pointed at his senior brother. The three magic swords surrounding him shot out instantly, drawing three colorful afterimages in the void and stopping ten meters away from his senior brother, binding him tightly like a cage.

The three magic swords stopped at different points beside the senior brother. Amidst the high pressure of the three elements of spiritual energy, the three swords danced like dragons, each strike aimed directly at the senior brother's vital points!

The three swords—red dragon, gold dragon, and green dragon—swam around the senior brother within a ten-meter radius, attacking him at a rate of three sword strikes per second. In just a few seconds, the senior brother was covered in blood and collapsed to the ground.

Senior Brother: I'm just an ordinary Qi Refining Stage 9 cultivator, how could I withstand such a display?

Jiang Liu watched in disbelief as the three dragon swords darted and moved swiftly within a small area, his eyes dazzled. By the time he realized what was happening, his senior brother had already collapsed to the ground.

"Yesterday's formidable foe, today's defeated opponent, farewell, senior brother, may we never meet again!"

Jiang Liu snapped his fingers to retract the Three Spirits Sword Formation, solemnly cupped his hands in greeting to his senior brother, turned around gracefully, and withdrew from the immersive experience.

It's a pity that he's just acting it out on his own from a distance, and the NPCs don't even bother to cooperate. What a waste of the sect's martial arts arena...

After this, he didn't plan to enter levels 1-10 again. He would give his senior brother some face out of consideration for the many times he had sparred with him.

Jiang Liu exited level 1-10, his fighting spirit still high and his heart full of confidence, and turned around to rush into level 2-1.

uh-huh?

The monster in 2-1 looks somewhat familiar. Last time I didn't pay much attention to it and was instantly killed. This time, upon closer inspection, isn't this one of the elders who tried to kill me in the sect's main hall during the 1-10 storyline?

Very well, I'll kill you!

A few seconds later.

Jiang Liu calmly exited the story interface. He had managed to hold out for two rounds against a Foundation Establishment cultivator despite his Qi Refining Level 9 cultivation. Though he lost, he was still honorable.

Give my senior brother some face, I'll come back to kill you in a few days.

"The Fire Python Technique is a single-target attack, while the Three Spirit Sword Formation is a group attack. The latter consumes several times more spiritual energy than the former. Fortunately, I have five top-grade spiritual roots, so my spiritual energy is plentiful..."

After exiting the story interface, Jiang Liu muttered to himself, secretly calculating that with his current spiritual energy, he could probably use the Three Spirit Sword Formation for about half an hour.

A 10x10 killing sword array can last for more than half an hour, and it's cast without using your hands. Wow... I really want to go grind monsters!

What a terrible game! It doesn't even have a wilderness map.

After having his senior brother test out the new trick, Jiang Liu opened his backpack again and got down to business.

He took photos of all the low-grade and mid-grade magical artifacts and spells in his backpack using the camera function, and then transferred them to his mobile phone via the internet.

Cultivation Era is an online game; isn't it normal for it to connect to a mobile phone?

After uploading all the photos of magical artifacts and spells to his phone, he switched out of the Immortal Cultivation Era and his consciousness returned to reality.

I took out my phone and opened Taobao.
