Chapter 88 Choosing Cultivation Techniques
He naturally didn"t need this armor, but his sister did. A Big Dragon-cla.s.s armor was simply impossible to buy. Even the number of Big Dragon-cla.s.s armors in the military was limited to a handful.
"If I exchange my points for a Growth Armor, can I give it to someone?" Kong Yun asked.
"Giving it to someone?" Jiang Wen was stunned. The Dragon Group Points were too precious. He didn"t even have enough for them, let alone giving them to others.
"As long as there is no problem with the other party"s ident.i.ty, the Dragon Group will not interfere." Jiang Wen said.
"It"s my sister. She"s a soldier. I"m going to exchange her for a dragon-cla.s.s proliferation mecha ." Kong Yun said.
"Then there"s no problem. Tell me your sister"s name. If I report it, someone will naturally give this proliferation mecha to your sister." Jiang Wen said.
The cheapest dragon-cla.s.s proliferation mecha costs 2,000 points. Kong Yun chose a Blazing Sun Flame proliferation mecha , 2,500 points.
"Brother, I still have to advise you. The Dragon Group"s points are not easy to earn. It is true to exchange for something that will help you. If you waste your points in these places, you will regret it in the future." Jiang Wen said.
"I know." Kong Yun thought, and a series of ancient martial arts appeared in front of him.
Although Kong Yun had obtained a copy of the Imperial Swordsmanship and the special abilities in his body could operate according to certain rules, the Imperial Swordsmanship was only a method to control the flying sword. In terms of cultivation, it was still inferior to the orthodox ancient martial arts.
The Dragon Group had existed for thousands of years, and there were countless inherited martial arts techniques. At a glance, there were at least a thousand ancient martial arts techniques.
"There are so many cultivation methods, you have to be dazzled." Kong Yun smiled bitterly.
"That"s because your authority is high enough. Almost all of the techniques in the Dragon Group can be selected by you. If you are just the most ordinary member of the Dragon Group, it would be good if you had dozens of techniques to choose from." Jiang Wen curled his lips. Back then, when he joined the Dragon Group, he didn"t receive such good treatment.
"Big Brother Jiang, what cultivation method do you have? Give me a few recommendations." Kong Yun smiled.
"I"m not too sure either, but if you choose one, you still have 17,500 points left. You should choose an interval between 10,000 and 17,500 points. This interval should be quite good." Jiang Wen said sarcastically. More than 20,000 points was definitely a huge sum of money for a newcomer to the Dragon Group. It was enough to do many things well.
Sure enough, after the selection, the number of cultivation techniques was much smaller. In this range, there were only a hundred or so, which was much better than the previous thousands.
Adepts also paid attention to cultivating ancient martial arts. Normally, they would choose the same type of martial arts as their own abilities. However, Kong Yun"s metal abilities were extremely rare amongst his abilities. He did not think that ancient martial arts had metals to cultivate.
However, Kong Yun had already decided what kind of ancient martial arts he wanted to choose. He didn"t need those ancient martial arts that had attributes. What he needed was those ancient martial arts that could be cultivated quickly and allow his body to have more special abilities.
"That"s right. Brother, you"re right. Your metal ability is extremely powerful. If there"s an endless stream of abilities, then you"re practically an existence that can"t be beaten to death." Jiang Wen agreed with Kong Yun"s idea.
Originally, Jiang Wen thought that Kong Yun would choose a cultivation method that could strengthen his own strength to make up for his deficiencies in attack power, but he didn"t expect Kong Yun to choose this type.
After refining the PaG.o.da Sword and grasping the strange patterns, Kong Yun"s attack power was strong enough. What he should consider was how to survive. After all, only by surviving could he have limitless possibilities.
The screening range was further narrowed, and only three ancient martial arts techniques met Kong Yun"s requirements.
"Primordial Chaos One Qigong" had endless internal energy. The martial artists who cultivated this technique had much more internal energy than ordinary martial artists, so there was almost no need to worry about exhausting their internal energy.
[Three Flowers Gathering Qi Art], condensing three flowers. During a battle, the three flowers can absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to replenish their internal strength.
These two techniques were very suitable for Kong Yun, and the price was reasonable. "Primordial Chaos One Qigong" required 13,000 points, while "Three Flowers Qigong" required 16,000 points. They were both top-notch Dragon Group techniques.
However, Kong Yun"s gaze landed on the third technique, the Heaven Devouring Earth Devouring Technique. This technique could be summed up in one word, and that was eating!
Everything in the world contained spiritual energy. It was stored in one"s body through eating and converted into internal energy when needed. In general, the more one ate, the stronger the internal energy would be.
Even if he didn"t have anything to eat, he could still eat air. With his big mouth open, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth would continuously flow into his body.
"Brother, you"re not going to cultivate this food technique, are you?" Jiang Wen noticed that Kong Yun"s gaze was on the Heaven Swallowing Earth Devouring Technique, so he couldn"t help but ask.
"With this intention, this technique looks pretty good." Kong Yun said.
"That"s right. If you really cultivate this technique, then you should be prepared to suffer." Jiang Wen snorted.
"Oh, this technique isn"t good?" Kong Yun couldn"t help but ask.
"It can"t be said to be bad. However, this cultivation technique is very limited. We must eat from far away. There are some things that are not digestible by the stomach of humans at all." Jiang Wen explained.
The corner of Kong Yun"s mouth curled up. His stomach could even digest metal, so he didn"t believe that there was anything on Earth that couldn"t be digested.
"Exchange!" Kong Yun waved his hand and 13,000 points disappeared from his account. s.p.a.ce trembled slightly as a chip appeared in front of Kong Yun.
"Is this a cultivation technique?" Kong Yun was stunned. Shouldn"t ancient martial arts be all paper books?
Jiang Wen rolled his eyes. What era was it now? He still used paper books. Of course, they were engraved in the A. I. Chip. He could directly insert them into his brain and read them. It was simple and convenient.
Kong Yun smiled embarra.s.sedly. Thinking about it, it was indeed the case. However, this style of painting didn"t suit him very well.
He looked at his account and found that he still had 4,500 points left. He didn"t know what else he could exchange for.
"Your weapon shouldn"t be needed anymore. If you exchange it for the resources you need to cultivate, then that Spirit Origin Pill is pretty good. It"s a pill refined by an ancient method. One hundred points per pill." Jiang Wen said.
Kong Yun quickly found the Psionic Essence Pill. Whether it was an Adept or a Martial Cultivator, they could consume it to increase their cultivation, and they could also temper their internal strength and abilities to make it even purer.
"Good stuff!" This was an essential item for cultivation. One hundred points was enough for Kong Yun to exchange for forty-five. At this point, the twenty thousand points he had obtained from entering the Dragon Group had been completely consumed by him.
"It"s good to have points." Jiang Wen sighed.
"Oh right, how are you going to earn points from the Dragon Group?" Kong Yun asked.
"There"s something in the dragon brain. Just find the quest panel." Jiang Wen revealed a wicked smile. The most exciting part was about to arrive.
"Kill a warrior-level mutated beast for 100 points!" When Kong Yun saw this mission, his chin almost fell off.
Only a warrior-level mutated beast could earn 10 points, and killing ten warrior-level mutated beasts with more than 1,000 points!
Ten warrior-level mutated beasts don"t sound like many, but there aren"t many warrior-level mutated beasts on the continent that you can kill.
"Collect the marrow fluid of the zombie, 10 points per kilogram of marrow fluid." Kong Yun saw the next mission.
Kong Yun almost fainted. According to kilograms of zombie marrow fluid, a zombie only had a little bit of marrow fluid. He didn"t know how many zombies he would kill if he gathered one kilogram of zombie marrow fluid.
It was not easy to earn points in the Dragon Group. The management of points in the Dragon Group was very strict.
Seeing Kong Yun"s astonished expression, Jiang Wen almost burst out laughing. He had a large number of points when he first entered the Dragon Group, and only after spending a single breath did he realize that the points were so precious.
Everyone who joined the Dragon Group had a deep understanding of this kind of experience. Heaven and h.e.l.l were actually separated by a thread.
Of course, the Dragon Group also has high-reward missions. For example, hunting a General-level mutated beast, the reward is so generous that you can"t even imagine it, 100,000 points!
Moreover, there is no limit to the number of people you can perform this mission. If you kill one person, you will receive 100,000 points. However, if ten people partic.i.p.ate in this mission, then ten people will receive 100,000 points!
However, how many people could complete such a mission? A General-level mutated beast was enough to destroy the terrifying existence of Haimen City. Kong Yun still didn"t want to die.
""The Dragon Group will be cleared after a period of time. However, only the strongest members of the Dragon Group can partic.i.p.ate. The casualty rate is very high." Jiang Wen said.
"What? The Dragon Group is fighting against a General-level mutated beast?" Kong Yun looked at Jiang Wen in horror.
""Is that strange? Do you think there are only warrior-level mutated beasts in the ocean? Those near China are all blocked by the Dragon Group. Otherwise, you think China will be so stable these years." Jiang Wen rolled his eyes and said.
There were some battles that didn"t need to be known to the public. The Dragon Group was silently fighting behind their backs, and they had paid a huge sacrifice for this.
"Alright, you should have seen these missions. The Dragon Group"s points aren"t easy to earn. Take your time." Jiang Wen patted Kong Yun on the shoulder.
"Didi di di!" After a meal at the Dragon Group Branch, Jiang Wen"s dragon brain suddenly sent a message. The second wave of mutated beasts had already landed, and the army that had set up traps on the seash.o.r.e had all been annihilated.
"Let"s go to the city wall!" Jiang Wen brought Kong Yun into a room. A light flashed and both Kong Yun and Jiang Wen appeared on the city wall of Haimen City.
Jiang Wen pointed at the last mutated beast and said, "It"s ferocious. One of the mutated beasts is very strong. Look …"
"Flood Dragon" Kong Yun"s pupils shrank. That mutated beast was too similar to the Azure Flood Dragon he saw on the island.
"Not yet, but if he evolved, it would be a flood dragon, a General-level mutated beast!" Jiang Wen shook his head.
Although that big fellow was already 90% similar to the flood dragon, its horns hadn"t evolved yet. It was still one step away from becoming a flood dragon, but it was only one step away. It could take that step at any time. Once it transformed into a flood dragon, it would be a General-level mutated beast, enough to destroy Haimen City.
