Chapter 498: Flame Spirit Technique
After coming out of this ancient Li shop, Ye Changsheng held the map of the Holy Fire City and the jade slip that recorded various information related to the Holy Fire City in his hands, and a look of interest appeared on his face.
The shop owner did not lie to him. The information on this map and the ancient records on the jade slip about the Holy Fire City was quite detailed. After reading it, Ye Changsheng quickly had a general understanding of the ancient Li people.
Especially regarding this water and fire conference and the trade conference, we will not be completely in the dark.
After memorizing all this information in his mind, Ye Changsheng put away the two items and looked towards the street ahead.
He moved quickly through the streets of the ancient Li ethnic group. Although it was his first time here, his movements were already quite skillful.
After several hours, Ye Changsheng came to a tall attic. Looking at the faint forbidden light flashing on the attic, a smile appeared on his face.
This is the largest place for selling martial arts secrets of the ancient Li people, and it is also open to outsiders.
Ye Changsheng was still very interested in the various secret books of these foreign races, especially the ancient Li tribe. As one of the large tribes, there were probably countless advanced secret techniques within the tribe.
If he could get several types, it would be a great reference for him.
After Ye Changsheng entered the attic, he saw that there were already quite a few cultivators from other races gathered here.
Obviously, these people came here with the same idea as him.
When he walked in, an old man from the ancient Li ethnic group immediately came up to him with a smile on his face.
"Welcome senior to our Yanguang Pavilion. Our pavilion has the largest and most complete number of martial arts secrets of our ancient Li people. If there is any martial arts secret you want to find, you can tell me and I can help you find it!" The man said to Ye Changsheng with a smile on his face. While speaking, a hint of complacency appeared on his face.
Ye Changsheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said calmly: "I came in just to take a look, I haven't decided what I want yet. If I want something, I'll find you again!"
Hearing this, the old man of the Guli tribe was not surprised. He bowed respectfully again and said, "I am here whenever you call me. I wish you can find what you want!"
Ye Changsheng nodded upon hearing this and walked towards a huge bookshelf without comment.
Speaking of which, he did know some of the ancient Li people's top secret skills and magical powers, such as Zhurong's sacred fire, but there was no need to think about such magical powers. The ancient Li people would definitely guard them strictly and would never reveal them to outsiders.
Therefore, he did not waste time looking for this old man.
At that moment, I started watching it by myself.
Ye Changsheng read very quickly. For most jade slips, books and the like, he just flipped through them and put them down without paying too much attention to them.
With his current strength and vision, there are very few martial arts and secret techniques that he can appreciate.
Although there are many skills here, which are enough to make a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage overjoyed, they are of little use to him.
After looking for several hours, Ye Changsheng walked up the stairs to the second floor of the attic.
There are fewer martial arts secrets here, but most of them are more exquisite. There are some martial arts that can make Ye Changsheng stop for a long time after reading them.
Not long after, he arrived at the third floor of the attic. This was already the highest place that these foreign cultivators could reach. Some of the skills that appeared in this place could actually have a certain reference significance for the fusion-level cultivators.
Ye Changsheng even saw several main techniques practiced by the fusion cultivators, which surprised him a little.
This kind of skill is extremely precious among the human race. It can be used as the finale of the Tianyuan City Wilderness Auction. It requires more than millions of spirit stones to obtain it.
But here, they were casually displayed, as if the ancient Li people had no shortage of this kind of skills.
It seems that the demeanor of this great family really cannot be judged by common sense.
After staying in the Yanguang Pavilion for a day, Ye Changsheng came to the hall on the first floor empty-handed and found the old man who greeted him at the beginning.
When this person saw Ye Changsheng, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he asked respectfully, "Senior, do you have any instructions?"
"Do you have any better methods to cultivate the magical power of fire?" Ye Changsheng asked with a hint of anticipation.
The old man pondered for a moment after hearing this, and said, "Senior, what you want to ask is the method right?"
"Yes, this is exactly the thing!" Ye Changsheng nodded in approval.
The old man thought for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, this secret method is very important in our ancient Li tribe and is rarely passed on to others!"
"If you want the secret method that can help a cultivator of your level, it is almost impossible to find it in any store of the Guli tribe, because these are things that are absolutely not allowed to be sold in the tribe!"
"In fact, even among our ancient Li people, only a small number of people have access to this secret method!" said the old man, shaking his head.
"So what you mean is that if I want to purchase this kind of secret technique, all I can buy are relatively inferior stuff?" Ye Changsheng asked indifferently.
"That's right, but among all the skills and secret techniques that are available for sale, what our pavilion can provide is definitely the best one!" the old man said immediately.
"Then take me to see it!" Ye Changsheng nodded and said without comment.
A hint of joy flashed across the old man's face when he heard this, and he immediately took Ye Changsheng to a bookshelf in the corner of the first floor of the attic.
“Everything here is related to the secret techniques of refining the innate divine fire!” said the old man, pointing at the bookshelf.
When Ye Changsheng saw the thousands and tens of thousands of various secret techniques on such a bookshelf, the corner of his eye twitched.
The old man glanced at him, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "In fact, although there are many secret techniques here, there are only a few that are suitable for your level of cultivation!"
"Oh, then you can choose from these!" Ye Changsheng said immediately.
Upon hearing this, the old man busied himself in front of the bookshelf for a while, and then took out seven or eight jade slips, books, stone slabs, etc. of different colors.
"This Scarlet Flame Light Technique can refine the divine fire of one's own life into a very powerful magical spell, which can add a lot of advantages out of thin air during a battle!"
As the old man spoke, he handed over a light red jade slip. Ye Changsheng took it, looked at it for a few seconds, then frowned.
This Red Flame Light Technique is indeed somewhat effective in purifying flames, and can also form a magical power called Red Flame Divine Light.
But this kind of magical power can only play a powerful role at the Nascent Soul level, and it will not be effective after that.
With the essence of fire that Ye Changsheng now possesses, this magical power is probably of no use at all.
"The Nine Refinements Fire Condensation Technique here takes a different approach from the ordinary refining techniques..."
As the old man introduced, he handed various skills to Ye Changsheng, and after Ye Changsheng looked at them, he frowned.
It was just as this person said, none of the martial arts techniques that could be put on sale were good stuff, and basically they were of little use at his level.
“This Flame Spirit Technique can not only purify flames, but also nourish their spirituality. You should be clear about what a spiritual flame means. Once you can successfully cultivate spirituality in the flame, then no matter it is fighting or refining medicine, in short, anything that requires fire will be of great advantage!” the old man introduced with a smile on his face.
As he spoke, he handed over the pitch-black animal skin that had the Flame Spirit Technique recorded on it.
Ye Changsheng frowned slightly when he heard this. He didn't take this person's words to heart at all.
Because he knew that even though the old man talked a lot of nonsense, this kind of martial arts would probably be of no use to him.
Ye Changsheng sighed in his heart, took the animal skin, and thought to himself that he might have made a wrong idea. It was really wishful thinking to want to find a secret technique that he would like in such a place.
However, just as this thought flashed through his mind, suddenly, the fire of spirit that had become active since entering the territory of the ancient Li tribe and had been pacified by him suddenly became agitated.
The fire of essence was swimming in Ye Changsheng's body, restless, and a deep desire was sent to Ye Changsheng's heart.
Ye Changsheng was startled, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and he quickly used his mind to calm the restless fire of his spirit, while at the same time looking at the black animal skin in his hand.
After taking a few glances, Ye Changsheng asked with a hint of surprise: "Is this an incomplete secret technique?"
There were only a few hundred words on the animal skin that was as big as two or three palms. It looked like just a beginning, with no subsequent content at all.
Hearing his words, the old man showed embarrassment in his eyes, laughed dryly twice, and said: "This is indeed an incomplete secret technique that I accidentally obtained before. Because the secret technique is incomplete, it is impossible to determine what level it is, so I put it here!"
"Senior, don't underestimate this incomplete secret technique. Although it only contains a few hundred words, the discussion is very profound. You can imagine that if this secret technique is the complete version, it would definitely be an extremely profound secret technique!"
"Of course, if this secret technique is really complete, it would not be sold in this pavilion!" said the old man with a laugh.
"snort!"
Ye Changsheng suddenly sneered twice and said, "There are only a few hundred words in total, and 90% of them are introductions to this technique. Only a few dozen words involve the cultivation of flame spirituality, and they are just the beginning!"
"This kind of secret technique, no matter how profound the whole text is, has no value at all just this little bit of content. You are selling this fragment, aren't you cheating the outside cultivators out of their spiritual stones?"
As soon as Ye Changsheng said this, the old man's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said: "Senior, you are wrong. We in Yanguang Pavilion have never cheated our customers of spiritual stones. We have always been fair in transactions. As long as you like it, our selling price will never be much higher than the market price!"
"Although this incomplete manuscript is sold in our pavilion, we have never made any false advertising. We always tell customers clearly that this is an incomplete secret technique and we dare not hide anything!"
Ye Changsheng snorted coldly upon hearing this, but his expression eased a little. He said calmly, "Fortunately, you didn't put any restrictions on this technique and concealed the contents behind it to deceive people. Otherwise, if someone really bought it and found out that it was not right, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of your ancient Li people?"
"What you said is right, senior. We at Yanguang Pavilion have always attached great importance to our reputation and would never dare to engage in false advertising to deceive our customers!" the old man assured again and again.
Ye Changsheng nodded and threw the animal skin aside, as if he was not interested in it at all.
Then he said, "Go on and introduce other techniques!"
Upon hearing this, the old man breathed a sigh of relief and continued to introduce the remaining skills in his hand to Ye Changsheng one by one.
After Ye Changsheng finished reading it, his expression did not change at all. These skills could not arouse his interest.
He threw the last manual aside, sighed, and said, "It's just as you said, there's nothing good here!"
The old man laughed dryly upon hearing this, and said quickly: "The truly powerful secret techniques are all in the holy temple of our ancient Li people, but those secret techniques are not accessible to outsiders like you!"
"In fact, it's not surprising that our ancient Li people do this. I think the race that our predecessors came from would also guard important secret techniques strictly, right?" the old man asked with a chuckle.
"What you said is not wrong. Although these martial arts secrets are useless to me, they can still be used as a reference. Sell all the books you took out just now to me. How many spirit stones?" Ye Changsheng waved his sleeves, rolled up the seven or eight martial arts secrets that were thrown aside and said.
"Ten thousand spirit stones will be enough!" the old man said with a smile on his face upon hearing that.
Seeing this, Ye Changsheng nodded, took out a high-level spirit stone and threw it to the old man, then collected all the secret manuals of martial arts.
The remaining secret technique was naturally included in it. The old man from the ancient Li tribe was not surprised to see this. He respectfully escorted Ye Changsheng out of the attic.
"What on earth is this animal skin that can make the Spirit Flame so eager? Well, I have to find a place to rest, settle down first, and then explore it carefully!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
Not long after, he arrived in front of a vast palace complex. After handing over a certain amount of spirit stones, he obtained a courtyard where he could temporarily live.
This is a place specially provided by the ancient Li people for monks from other races. As the trade fair approaches, the place is almost crowded with monks from various races.
However, with Ye Changsheng's cultivation level, he was able to find a residence easily. After entering this place, dozens of flags of various colors immediately flew out from his sleeves and landed in various places in the courtyard, covering the place.
After doing all this, Ye Changsheng walked into a room, reached out and flicked the storage bracelet, and the animal skin immediately appeared in front of him.
