Chapter 277: Heaven-Man Induction Art
First of all, for Lu Yu, the True Qi Pill Prescription was a key item that simply had to be bought.
After all, this directly concerned the speed of his subsequent Realm advancement; on the path of cultivation, speed often determines everything.
Therefore, purchasing the True Qi Pill Prescription was not only imperative but the more the better; the greater the quantity, the more guaranteed his possibility and speed of Realm advancement would be.
Lu Yu's gaze was firmly locked onto the Prescription display area.
Besides the two True Qi Pill Prescriptions that had caught his eye earlier, there was actually another one below them.
This third prescription was priced as high as 3,000 points, and once cultivated to the Consummation Realm, there was a certain probability of refining True Qi Pills of extraordinary quality!
This discovery provided definitive verification for the speculation Lu Yu had held all along.
Clearly, those within the Awakened Association must know that beyond the Top Grade quality, there existed even more advanced qualities.
At that moment, Lu Yu did not hesitate in the slightest and decisively added these two subsequent prescriptions to his collection; in one go, this spent 4,000 points like flowing water.
However, he was not satisfied with this; after a brief moment of contemplation and hesitation, he resolutely decided to also take the prescription worth 500 points.
He thought to himself, perhaps this extra prescription could further increase the upper limit of his pill refining?
Besides the True Qi Pill Prescription, there was a dazzling array of other good items in the mall.
Even the prescription for the Gathering Spirit Pill was prominently listed.
This prescription was priced as high as 10,000 points, and even if the cultivator exhausted all their efforts to cultivate it to the Consummation Realm, they could ultimately only refine Middle Grade Gathering Spirit Pills.
One Low-Grade Gathering Spirit Pill could provide one million Potential Points, while one Low-Grade True Qi Pill could only provide one hundred thousand Potential Points.
At first glance, judging purely by the quantity of Potential Points provided, refining Gathering Spirit Pills seemed more cost-effective.
However, one could not ignore a key factor: the Low-Grade True Qi Pill was merely the starting point; above it were Middle Grade, High Grade, Top Grade, and even higher grades.
Even without counting those higher grades, the Potential Points provided by a single Top Grade True Qi Pill, even if not quite one million, would surely be about the same.
More importantly, the probability of producing Top Grade pills when refining True Qi Pills was quite high.
At that time, for a furnace of True Qi Pills, there was a very high probability that every single one would be Top Grade.
But if one were to refine Gathering Spirit Pills, the situation might not be so optimistic...
After successfully buying the three prescriptions, Lu Yu let out a soft breath.
He knew in his heart that once he successfully passed the Pulse Refining Realm Martial Artist assessment and unlocked new purchasing permissions, he would be able to buy another prescription then.
He looked forward to this prescription being completely different from the few currently in the Awakened Association; otherwise, while it wouldn't be a huge loss, he would inevitably feel deeply disappointed.
Subsequently, Lu Yu's gaze shifted to the 【Heaven-Man Induction Art】.
Once he possessed this Cultivation Method, he would no longer need to worry about being at a loss when those Awakened used Space Items.
Even if he encountered Awakened with space-type abilities in the future, relying on this Cultivation Method, he would have more confidence in protecting himself and defeating the enemy.
Such an important Cultivation Method naturally required paying a price.
Lu Yu once again painfully spent 3,000 points. His original 58,000-plus points, after this round of spending, were left with just over 50,000.
"What should I choose next..." Lu Yu subconsciously reached out to scratch his head, his brows furrowed tightly, his face full of hesitation.
Most of the things he wanted were already in his possession, but there were simply too many treasures in the Association Mall; every single one made his heart race, and he wished he could take them all home.
Take those Mental Secret Manuals for example: Imperial Spirit Art, Heaven's Gaze Technique, Soul Shifting Great Method, Undying Seal Art, etc., and among the points he currently possessed, the most superior and attractive one he could purchase was the Source Wisdom Scripture of All Methods.
If this Mental Secret Manual were complete and flawless, Lu Yu would certainly have placed an order on the spot without hesitation to add it to his collection.
It was just a pity that it was only a remnant copy.
One must know that completing a remnant copy was by no means an easy task; the more powerful the Cultivation Method and the more astonishing its might, the greater the difficulty required to complete it.
Just like the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill he had obtained long ago; to complete it even now, he had to cultivate the Golden Bell Shield to the ninth level.
The Association Mall also had a remnant copy of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill for sale, priced as high as 20,000 points.
And this Source Wisdom Scripture of All Methods was priced as high as 50,000 points; from the price alone, it was not hard to infer that the difficulty of completing the Wisdom Scripture would certainly be no lower.
At the current stage, with limited points and the need to quickly improve his strength, it was wiser to prioritize items that could effectively improve his strength once purchased.
The Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he saw earlier were undoubtedly excellent choices.
"Let's put these martial arts priced at over a thousand points aside for now," Lu Yu calculated to himself.
It wouldn't be too late to purchase these remnant copies after he had first studied all the fist, foot, Internal Energy, and Lightness Skill manuals that cost dozens or hundreds of points.
Perhaps following these steps could even reduce the difficulty of completing them.
Before scrolling the page, he added the Soul Shifting Great Method to his shopping list.
After all, this was a complete Mental Secret Manual; although it could not increase Mental Power after cultivation, it could be used to control the opponent's mind.
Before killing an opponent, using it to force them to reveal how to open their Space Item was truly most appropriate.
"Let's buy another Heaven's Gaze Technique and Dragon Elephant Prajna Art." Lu Yu gritted his teeth and hardened his heart to make the decision.
The former could increase Mental Power and also possessed the effect of avoiding misfortune; the latter was an extremely fierce strength-refining Cultivation Method.
It would be just right to buy them and see what their completion conditions were.
Thus, he added these two Cultivation Methods to the list.
The 50,000-plus points, after this round of spending, were reduced by another 12,000, leaving only about 38,000.
Lu Yu sighed softly and flipped directly back to the very top of the mall.
At first, he thought that these Cultivation Methods costing dozens or hundreds of points would likely also be available in the Martial Arts Association, and spending points to buy them seemed of little significance; after all, points were hard-earned.
But then he thought again, buying these Cultivation Methods wouldn't save many points, and with his current ability, while these tens of thousands of points weren't easy to obtain, they weren't out of reach either.
Moreover, having one more Cultivation Method meant one more possibility to improve his strength.
Thinking of this, he simply gritted his teeth and bought all these Cultivation Methods in one go.
Whether it was fist, palm, leg, finger, or claw, as long as it was a manual related to fists and feet, he didn't let a single one go.
Next were the Lightness Skill manuals; the number of Arrow Technique manuals was scarce, totaling less than ten.
As for the blade technique manuals, Lu Yu took a fancy to one priced at 3,000 points at a glance—【Wind-Facing Blade Slash】.
Rather than calling it an ordinary manual, it would be more appropriate to call it a unique Martial Skill.
