Chapter 37 Wind Control

Back in the courtyard, Lin Mu went straight to the quiet room.

The outer disciples' competition, Lin Mu needs to think carefully about this matter.

Lin Mu has just reached the seventh level of Qi Refining. Compared with those people who have reached the ninth and tenth levels of Qi Refining, he has no advantage at all in the competition. After all, the cultivation level is a little different, and the subtlety of the spell cannot determine everything. With the cultivation level of those people, even a low-level spell "Fireball Spell" is difficult for Lin Mu to bear.

If he is not careful, he may be seriously injured, or even an unhealable wound.

Now he is in the limelight in the sect, and there are people who want to win him over. There are also many people who want to make trouble for him because of jealousy.

At this time, if they take the opportunity to take ruthless action, Lin Mu is not sure that he can escape.

Although the head of the sect Shi Weihan strictly proposed that the lives of fellow disciples should not be harmed. But as long as those people guarantee not to harm his life, beating him into a cripple and unable to practice from then on is not a violation.

Lin Mu cannot accept this result anyway. Becoming a cripple is simply worse than death.

If he didn't participate, Lin Mu was sure that he would be able to successfully build his foundation five years later.

But when Lin Mu thought of his parents far away in his hometown, his heart ached.

Before his father left, he knelt in front of Elder Luo Yan and begged bitterly. The scene of his head being broken and bleeding was still vivid in his mind. When Lin Mu thought of this, he was restless and could not rest for a moment.

He must participate!

He couldn't wait for another five years. The longer he waited, the deeper the torment in his heart he felt.

Not only must he participate, but he must at least be in the top five! Lin Mu had made up his mind.

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Lin Mu's eyes. If anyone made trouble with me, he would definitely fight back twice as hard!

Once he made the decision, Lin Mu's heart was relieved and he began to seriously consider the matters of this competition.

The head and the four elders summoned all the outer disciples to participate in this conference. It seemed to be a huge event, but it was just a lot of noise. The four elders just sat quietly for a while without saying a word. Even the head of the sect, Shi Weihan, only gave a general explanation of the competition without going into details.

All these things were strange, as if they were hiding something. Lin Mu was puzzled.

These doubts could not be answered correctly in his heart, so Lin Mu simply put them aside and began to plan how to deal with this competition.

This competition, Lin Mu was not completely unsure.

With his current strength, he could easily defeat the eighth-level Qi Refining cultivators and be on par with the ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators.

But if he faced the tenth-level Qi Refining cultivators, he could only admit defeat. If he was lucky, there was a certain possibility that the weak would defeat the strong. But Lin Mu did not believe in luck, these were just auxiliary, and only real strength could make him feel at ease.

According to Lin Mu's estimation, there should be no less than ten tenth-level Qi Refining cultivators in Qianyu Sword Sect.

These ten or so Qi Refining cultivators will be the backbone of this competition, and the rest are just going through the motions.

Of course, the emergence of some geniuses is not ruled out.

Lin Mu heard that Luo Yun's cultivation had reached the peak of the eighth level of Qi Refining. There were still two months before the competition, and it would be easy for him to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining. Because his brother was Luo Chen, the chief disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, Luo Yun began to learn sword techniques during the Qi Refining period and officially became a sword cultivator.

The powerful attack power of sword cultivators is far beyond the reach of these ordinary outer disciples.

Lin Mu believed that with Luo Yun's strength, he would not be inferior to the tenth-level Qi cultivators.

Lin Mu had just reached the seventh level of Qi Refining. Although he yearned for sword cultivation, he knew that he could not cultivate any powerful sword techniques in two months. Instead of wasting time on this, he might as well find a way to improve the power of his own magic.

In two months, Lin Mu was confident that he could improve his cultivation to the eighth level of Qi Refining. At that time, he would be able to compete with the tenth-level Qi Refining cultivators.

In terms of attack power, the fourth-level "Geng Jin Jue" was unparalleled and extremely sharp. There was no need to worry about this.

But in terms of defense, Lin Mu found that he was very weak.

Most of the cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage practice magic, and a few people with rich wealth offer a low-grade magic weapon. Such strength is not much better than Lin Mu.

But these low-level magics should not be underestimated.

At least, Lin Mu's "Geng Jin Jue" can penetrate the body of the cultivator, and the attack power is very strong. The "Geng Jin Jue" that Lin Mu learned is just a planting-type magic. Those authentic gold-based magics, such as the low-level gold-based magic "Golden Needle Jue", are equally powerful. Of course, compared with the "Geng Jin Jue" which is now at the fourth level, it is slightly inferior.

Even so, a "Golden Needle Jue" may cause Lin Mu to die.

Fortunately, there are only a few cultivators with gold-based spiritual roots, but no one dares to guarantee that some people have two-based spiritual roots and deliberately hide their strength. Even if they learn the "Golden Needle Jue", they will not show it.

Just like how Lin Mu dealt with Ma Huayuan, he used endless magic to confuse Ma Huayuan's judgment, and then used the "Geng Jin Jue" to kill him with one strike.

Magic like the "Golden Needle Jue" is too powerful. If you can't dodge in time, you will be seriously injured and naturally defeated.

But these spells are not without countermeasures. After all, they are low-level spells. If the cultivator is agile and quick, as long as he can dodge, he can escape.

Lin Mu's idea is to make himself more agile. If he moves quickly and reaches the point where a leaf does not touch him, no matter how powerful his spells are, they can't do anything to him.

After making this decision, Lin Mu took the spirit stone and went straight to the Sutra Library.

Arriving at Luoxia Peak, Lin Mu walked into the Sutra Library.

Lin Mu carefully selected from many wooden racks and finally found two suitable jade slips on the auxiliary wooden racks.

Among the many spells, there are two that can make the cultivator more agile.

One is "Wind Controlling Technique" and the other is "God Traveling Technique".

Spells are divided into five elements. If there is no corresponding spiritual root, it is impossible to learn it. For example, a cultivator with a single spiritual root of the fire system cannot learn "Green Water Secret".

But there are also some neutral spells that can be learned regardless of spiritual roots.

For example, "Wind Controlling Technique", "God Speeding Technique", "Sound Transmission Technique" and so on, although the power of these techniques is not great, most of them are auxiliary techniques, but they are numerous. If used properly, a single spiritual root cultivator can also learn a lot of techniques.

Of course, these problems are irrelevant to Lin Mu, who has five spiritual roots.

Although Lin Mu cannot match those single spiritual root cultivators in terms of cultivation speed, he is far superior to them in terms of the choice of techniques.

"Wind Controlling Technique" and "God Speeding Technique" can both increase the speed of movement, but they have different focuses.

"Wind Controlling Technique", as the name suggests, can make the cultivator fly for a short time, and it is no problem to jump more than ten feet.

"God Speeding Technique" cannot make the cultivator fly into the air, but its speed on the ground is slightly better than "Wind Controlling Technique".

After thinking about it, Lin Mu felt that "Wind Controlling Technique" is more suitable for him.

Especially when facing a cultivator with fire spiritual roots, facing several fireballs flying continuously, no matter how he moves, he cannot dodge. But if you can suddenly take off and avoid these fireballs, it is not difficult.

Although the "Divine Movement Technique" is a little faster, it is not as good as the "Wind Control Technique" in terms of changes.

Holding the jade slip with the "Wind Control Technique", Lin Mu came to the old man who was guarding and paid the spirit stone.

This jade slip of "Wind Control Technique" actually costs sixty low-grade spirit stones, which makes Lin Mu stunned.

A low-level technique costs so much.

No wonder the elders do not recommend Qi Refining cultivators to learn techniques. Ordinary cultivators really can't afford it.

Lin Mu is glad that the technique he just learned was the "Basic Five Elements Technique". Although the planting technique is not as powerful as the low-level technique at the beginning, it is cheaper. After some hard training, the planting technique of the third level is comparable to the low-level technique.

Now, the planting technique of the fourth level is slightly better than the low-level technique, and it can be compared with the middle-level technique in terms of control.

Holding the jade slip, Lin Mu bowed slightly to the old man and slowly walked out of the Sutra Library.

After Lin Mu came out, the old man looked at Lin Mu's back, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
