Unable to persuade Lin Luo, the old man had no choice but to take out the only three vitality-strengthening pills left in the auction house.
"You need to take three of these vitality-strengthening pills, boiled with the gallbladder of a dense green leaf snake. After one dose, you can only take a second pill three days later. Only when all three pills have been taken can you officially start cultivating.
"In this way, the person who takes it in the first realm will no longer have a bottleneck."
Lin Luo took the box, opened it, and took a look. There were three pills inside.
The moment the box was opened, the pill's rich and alluring fragrance quickly spread out.
Slam!
Lin Luo closed the box. "How much?"
"One hundred and fifty thousand each. That's four hundred and fifty thousand in total."
Lin Luo paid the spirit stones without hesitation. He had more than six million spirit stones on him now, so he didn't care about the 450000.
The old man laughed so hard that the wrinkles on his face were like a chrysanthemum.
"Thank you, thank you! Is there anything else you'd like, Mister Lin?"
"Brother." Lin Meng'er tugged at Lin Luo's clothes. "That should be enough."
She could tell the pill was for her, but four hundred and fifty thousand was simply way too expensive.
Lin Meng'er's face turned pale.
He was afraid that his brother would spend all his family fortune.
"Don't worry. I have money." Lin Luo patted Lin Meng'er's head to comfort her.
"Do you have any defensive equipment here?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
...
When Lin Luo left the auction house, he had already spent 1.5 million.
The two of them had changed clothes.
These defensive Daoist robes, accessories, shoes, and the hair clip on Lin Meng'er's head were high-grade defensive equipment.
Lin Luo had also bought a defensive formation disk he planned to activate and bury when he returned to the villa.
Not only that, but Lin Luo had also bought weapons for himself and Lin Meng'er.
Lin Meng'er chose a ribbon she could wrap around her wrist when not in use.
Lin Luo chose a broadsword and carried it on his back.
After some thought, Lin Luo made another trip to the martial pavilion.
The number of high-grade martial arts techniques he had mastered was still too few.
If a martial artist heard Lin Luo's words, he would probably be so angry that he would be pointed at and cursed at.
An ordinary intermediate-level Martial Master could only master two beginner-ranked martial arts techniques.
Those who were more talented could cultivate to the intermediate level.
However, he had mastered two advanced and one intermediate martial arts technique. Now, he had started to practice the autumn leaf saber.
Wasn't that too little?
Unfortunately, Lin Luo had never seen any ordinary martial arts techniques, so he only had three or four. To him, there were still too few.
Moreover, he had never practiced martial arts before. Once he got close, he could only rely on the weapons condensed from the mystic stone technique to charge forward.
Lin Luo picked ten advanced martial arts techniques in one go.
After all, advanced martial arts techniques would not be destroyed just because they had seen them. He and Meng'er could use them together.
Another 200,000 spirit stones were gone.
Lin Luo brought Lin Meng'er out for a big meal before returning to the villa.
After the array board was activated, the entire villa was covered by an invisible spirit energy shield. Unless it was a martial artist of the Grandmaster level, there was no way to break through this spirit energy shield.
As soon as he got close to the villa, the people in the villa would be able to detect him.
Lin Luo returned to his room and immediately spent 500000 spirit stones to upgrade the one-button cultivation function. He then spent another 150000 spirit stones to upgrade the one-button learning function.
[The one-button cultivation function has been successfully upgraded to level six. The current growth rate of spiritual energy is 1600 spiritual energy points per hour.]
[One-button learning function has been successfully upgraded to Level 3. Automatic learning speed X2. Martial arts skill learning cooldown time is 10 hours.]
"System, how long more do I need to become an advanced Martial Master?"
[You still need 380000 spiritual energy to become an advanced Martial Master. With your current cultivation speed, you will need 237.5 hours.]
Lin Luo calculated that he would need another ten days to upgrade to advanced Martial Master.
"How long will it take to train a high-tier technique to the advanced level?"
[The current automatic learning speed of the one-click learning function x2. It takes 24 hours to cultivate a high-tier technique to the beginner level, 240 hours to cultivate it to the intermediate level, and 720 hours to cultivate it to the advanced level.]
In other words, he would need over a month to cultivate a high-tier martial technique to the advanced level.
Lin Luo thought for a moment and didn't immediately use the spiritual stones to increase his cultivation and the cultivation level of the high-tier martial arts technique.
He had his two clones fighting alone outside the city together, then deliberately made them stray further to find the green leaf snake.
The green-leaf snake mostly appeared in the shrubbery; after so many years, no one had seen it. It was probably because this snake was even further away.
Lin Luo's clone gradually walked out of where the city's hunting team usually hunted ultra beasts, heading out bit by bit.
To the west was a desert, and the south had bush-like forests. Lin Luo had his clone guard the edge of the human-faced spiders 'territory to search for the green-leaf snake.
In order to take three vitality-strengthening pills, Lin Luo needed the gall of three green-leaf snakes.
His clone no longer focused on hunting exotic beasts but searching for this green leaf snake.
The further they were from the city, the more dangerous it became, and the closer they were to the core of the exotic beast forces.
Although the buffer zone between the core city and the nine major forces of the exotic beasts was made up of scattered small forces, they didn't dare to provoke the hunter teams for fear of being jointly annihilated by the humans.
After all, the exotic beasts of the nine superpowers didn't care about their lives.
No human dared to enter the nine forces' territory.
However, Lin Luo only had two clones; if he caused too much of a commotion, they definitely wouldn't mind devouring them.
Therefore, Lin Luo's clones had almost stopped hunting exotic beasts. He carefully avoided all kinds of exotic beasts and searched exclusively for the green-leaf snake. He would only kill exotic beasts if it were absolutely necessary.
This search lasted for five days.
On the sixth day, Lin Luo's clone was passing through a short forest and was about to reach the human-faced spider's territory when he heard a hissing sound.
The clone carefully followed the sound and found a hole.
They didn't enter rashly. They looked around at the cave entrance silently and then left immediately!
Lin Luo, who had been checking on his clone's condition, suddenly jumped up.
F*ck!
The nest of the green leaf snake!
This area was the territory of the green-leaf snake!
Many small forces were outside the city, and some strange beasts lived in groups, so they would mark out a small area as their family territory.
No wonder no one had seen the dense green leaf snake for so long. It turned out that they had all come here!
The neighboring area was the human-faced spiders' territory, so no one dared to venture there.
"These green-leaf snakes are pretty smart. They know that no hunting teams will come here."
In other words, these snakes had been recuperating here for two hundred years. Their numbers...
Lin Luo gulped.
How many snake galls could he get from this?
If he were to sell them...
"System, how much is the gallbladder of a dense green leaf snake on the market?"
[The rarer the item, the more expensive it becomes. Host, put it up for auction.]
