#30 - Buy a magic weapon, Tianling Cave will open
Su Chen first browsed through the seventh-grade cultivation techniques, but couldn't find any that could quickly improve his strength.
A few techniques that could temporarily unleash several times the power had side effects and aftereffects that were too severe, far inferior to the Berserk Battle Art.
Su Chen then looked at the seventh-grade magical treasures.
All kinds of dazzling magical treasures flashed before his eyes.
After a long while, Su Chen finally locked onto three seventh-grade magical treasures.
"Crimson Flame Armor, after activation, can form a layer of fire armor on the body surface, which is not only extremely defensive, but also releases flame thorns to counterattack after being attacked."
"With my current cultivation level, fully activating it should be able to withstand attacks from the ninth level of the Profound Spirit Realm, but the disadvantage is that it consumes too much spiritual power."
"Bought it!"
Su Chen bought two Crimson Flame Armors in one go, leaving the other for Qing Ling.
"Three Talents Sword Formation, only needs to set up the sword formation to automatically kill enemies, no need to activate it personally, this is good."
Su Chen casually bought two Three Talents Sword Formations.
"Heavenly Thunder Pearl, internally stores the thunder of heaven and earth, once activated, it can release terrifying lightning attacks."
"The Heavenly Thunder Pearl doesn't require too much spiritual power to activate, but the internal heavenly thunder is a consumable item, and after it's exhausted, it needs a Monarch Realm expert who is proficient in thunder to replenish it."
"Grandpa is not proficient in thunder, forget it, I'll use it first, and if I run out, I'll just buy another one."
Su Chen bought another Heavenly Thunder Pearl.
He spent 25,000 points of luck, leaving him with 112,250 points of luck.
Su Chen thought for a while, opened the lottery interface, and went for two draws!
[Ding, congratulations to the host for drawing the seventh-grade cultivation technique "Flying Rainbow Sword Art".]
[Ding, congratulations to the host for drawing the seventh-grade magical treasure Azure Cloud Sword.]
"...Not a loss, Qing Ling can use it."
The corners of Su Chen's mouth twitched slightly.
It seems that the first lottery draw, hitting the jackpot, was really just a newbie bonus.
With 102,250 points of luck remaining, Su Chen didn't continue to draw, but kept it in reserve for emergencies.
With 100,000 points of luck, if there are any unexpected situations in the future, he can directly buy a Saint-grade magical treasure!
"With these few magical treasures, even if I encounter a ninth-level Profound Spirit Realm expert, I can still fight and win!"
"It's enough!"
Su Chen felt confident and began to cultivate in seclusion.
Time flew by, and five days passed.
Soon, a piece of news quickly spread throughout the royal capital!
"The Heavenly Spirit Grotto will be opened in seven days!"
"The Heavenly Spirit Academy will hold an inner sect competition, and the top one hundred will be eligible to enter the Heavenly Spirit Grotto!"
As soon as the news came out, the entire royal capital boiled, and all the major families and forces were eager to try, focusing their attention on the Heavenly Spirit Academy.
The Heavenly Spirit Grotto is a blessed land controlled by the Heavenly Spirit Dynasty, containing all kinds of natural treasures, including seventh-grade treasures, which even Monarch Realm experts covet!
It's just a pity that the Heavenly Spirit Grotto has rule restrictions, and those whose cultivation exceeds the Profound Spirit Realm cannot enter.
In the past, when the Heavenly Spirit Grotto was opened, some lucky people obtained amazing opportunities from it, and eventually stepped into the Monarch Realm, becoming overlords!
It is said that the Yang family, one of the three major families, had ancestors with ordinary qualifications, but they obtained opportunities from the Heavenly Spirit Grotto, rose step by step, stepped into the Monarch Realm, and eventually developed the Yang family into the behemoth it is today!
Now that the Heavenly Spirit Grotto is opened again, it naturally excites all the major families and forces.
"Chen'er, this time our Su family only received three places to enter the Heavenly Spirit Grotto, while some small families and forces weaker than our Su family received seven or eight places, or even a dozen places."
"Alas, the royal family is finally starting to target our Su family."
"Why don't you go to the Heavenly Spirit Academy to participate in the inner sect competition and try to get more places?"
Su Jingwen quickly found Su Chen, he sighed, somewhat dissatisfied and worried.
The Su family has developed too fast in recent years, especially the Azure Cloud Chamber of Commerce, which has earned a huge amount of wealth for the Su family, which has ultimately aroused the jealousy and dissatisfaction of the royal family!
The Heavenly Spirit Grotto belongs to the royal family, and the number of places that various families and forces can get is naturally determined by the royal family.
"I intend to do so."
Su Chen nodded.
Su Jingwen exhorted: "Just do your best, don't force yourself."
Among the inner sect disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Academy, there are many Profound Spirit Realm experts.
It is extremely difficult to obtain a place with the cultivation of the Returning Origin Realm!
If he didn't know that Su Chen could kill Profound Spirit Realm experts across levels, Su Jingwen wouldn't have let Su Chen compete for a place.
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
Su Chen wasn't worried.
After this period of cultivation, his cultivation has already been raised to the peak of the seventh level of the Returning Origin Realm, and he is not far from the eighth level of the Returning Origin Realm!
Moreover, he possesses the Thunder Battle Body, and has cultivated the Thunder Battle Art to perfection. If he goes all out, there are not many people in the Profound Spirit Realm who are his opponents!
Su Chen summoned the Snow Feather Bird and headed to the Heavenly Spirit Academy.
When Su Chen arrived, the inner sect competition of the Heavenly Spirit Academy had already begun.
