Chapter 0235: 0235
Jiang Fenghuo laughed: "Oh, that . It's the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column . Originally, it was said to have been made by a lonely senior in Yan Huang Imperial City . Although it is a spiritual immortal treasure, its power is fairly terrifying . It's said to be able to level mountain ranges, scatter the seas, and suppress demons and ghostly cultivators . After a few turnovers, it reached our Shushan, and no one has used it for many years . After all, it would be strange for us Shushan disciples not to use swords . To tell you the truth, the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column is really awesome . But if it is of no use to us Shushan disciples, then we might as well sell it back to Yan Huang Imperial City . Perhaps because no one wanted it for centuries, so it remains here . Nothing but decoration . "
Without his explanation, Wu Yu could already deeply feel the power of the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column . It was one of the most incredible spiritual immortal treasures that he had come across before .
"What if someone wants it?" Wu Yu was staring at it, his eyes wild . The Paranormal Pillar of Blood was not suited to his nature, and he had always been looking for something better .
Jiang Fenghuo recalled for a moment . "I seem to remember that the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column can be exchanged for 1,500 merits . It's the spiritual immortal treasure with the highest value in the Common Sword Domain's Immortal Treasures Hall . Although it is worth at least 2,000 merits, even priced at 1,500, no one can take it away . Unless those Huang sword rank or Xuan sword rank disciples come and take it away . "
1,500!
Although he had expected as much, the price meant that he was a spectator and not a buyer . Even if he did not exchange for anything else today, he did not even have 1500 merits . Besides, the Corpse Flower was a stroke of luck . If not for the Corpse Flower, Wu Yu could not even have traded for the Sword of the Mystic Eye .
The price left Wu Yu disappointed . He could only watch with hungry eyes . He longed to take it away with him, but a pity that he did not have enough sword cores! With 600 spent, he only had 600 merits left . Wu Yu still had to purchase immortal medicine refining arts and dao techniques! Especially dao techniques - that was what Shen Xingyu had urged him to learn! His current Jindan dao techniques were too basic .
"Junior Brother? Don't you use the sword? Could it be that you're interested in the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column?" Jiang Fenghuo asked, puzzled .
Wu Yu was sorts for a moment, and he chuckled sheepishly at Jiang Fenghuo's question . "Indeed, but the price is too high for me to buy it . "
Jiang Fenghuo said with feeling, "That's true . You will realize that you sometimes do not have enough merits to buy what you want . Get used to it . After all, cultivation is not easy . "
Wu Yu threw a few more looks its way, a little reluctant to leave .
"Big Brother . . . . " Nangong Wei stared at him, then at the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column . Her expression changed a few times, but she did not say anything else .
After escorting Wu Yu out of the Immortal Treasures Hall, he was still a little distracted . At Nangong Wei's prompting, they went to the Dao Arts Hall, where Wu Yu finally managed to put aside his longing for the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column . He spent a long time choosing two dao techniques, one of which was an immortal medicine refining art .
He had spent 150 merits on the immortal medicine refining art . It was considered one of the best manuals for beginners to learn how to refine immortal medicines . It was called the 9-9 Approaches to Medicine . Within it were nine types of immortal medicines, and each immortal medicine had nine ways of refining, and was comprised of nine different ingredients . The explanation was very detailed . If not for the backing of Shen Xingyu, others would not have recommended such an excellent immortal medicine refining art to Wu Yu . With the 9-9 Approaches to Medicine, Wu Yu's entry to refining immortal medicine and his subsequent foundations would definitely be much better than others .
The other dao technique had cost Wu Yu 430 merits . As a result, he had less than 100 merits left with him .
Wu Yu's principle had always been to have less but better . For 400 merits, he could have had a few decent offensive dao techniques . For example, the Torrential Water Dragon Slash that Li Canghai had used was worth about 150 merits . But Wu Yu had chosen to commit all of his merits into buying the best that he could currently master .
This dao technique was more often cultivated by Xuan sword rank disciples; many Huang sword rank disciples could not afford it .
It was called the Yin Yang Heaven-Earth-Void Sword Art . This was also a recommendation from the staff at the Dao Arts Hall upon hearing Wu Yu's needs . Ordinary sub-halls would not even have such dao techniques .
Wu Yu only perused the Yin Yang Heaven-Earth-Void Sword Art, and he got the impression that it was very complicated . But as advertised, its powers were astronomical - more than tenfold the Triple Kill of the Heavens, and at least thrice that of Li Canghai's dao technique . More crucially, it could completely bring forth the unique properties of the Yin Yang Sword Wheel . In terms of immortal roots, Wu Yu's Yin Yang Sword Wheel had great potential and was a match for other superstars in the sect .
In the end, the Corpse Flower's benefits had largely been spent . Wu Yu had been equipped with a set of the finest resources . Henceforth, Wu Yu truly understood how important merits were at Shushan . It was incomparable to the wealth of mortals .
A pity that he had to let the Nine-Directional Demon Imprisonment Column go just like that .
Wu Yu could only put this dream aside for now . Next time, if he came by even more merits, he would go back to trade for it .
Of course, that was not exactly probable . Corpse Flowers did not come by every day .
After he was done, Wu Yu met Zhang Futu again . Without a word, he carried them on to the Mountain of Swords and Immortals . But this time, Wu Yu was prepared to talk things out with Zhang Futu . As they flew in the air, Wu Yu spoke neutrally to the blank-faced Zhang Futu . "I know what your purpose towards me was . I know that you thought that a country bumpkin like me had come by something even you admired . That's why you tried to control me, and transfer all that I had to yourself . And as a result, you brought me back to Shushan . But you did not expect that I would break free of your control . "
Zhang Futu was silent for a while, then replied, "Are you saying all of this because you won and want to rub it in?"
Wu Yu said, "That's up to your interpretation . The way that we interact is different now . I need you to understand that you missed the best time . From today on, you cannot do anything to me . And as a result, if you are willing to release me, that would be even better for you . If you continue to hound me, then whether I live or die, you will no longer be able to succeed through your way . I don't want to mutually destruct with you . "
Zhang Futu was silent after that .
He said, "You mean that as long as I rescind our master and disciple relationship, you will not hold anything of the past against me?"
