Technique

As soon as he entered, he saw the skill that he had always wanted to learn.
It was mainly because this move was too powerful.
It would definitely be good for escaping.
There was also…
It could also be used to show off!
Just look at Zhang Tianwei.
Just this Earth Shrinking alone stunned countless people.
Lin Chen definitely wanted to learn!
He held out his hand.
However, the moment his hand touched the cultivation manual, Lin Chen stopped.
Because of his soul perception, he saw the introduction of the secret manual.
It was indeed Earth Shrinking.
But…
It actually cost five times the skill points!
In other words…
50 Skill Points?
Lin Chen fell into deep thought…
Firstly, he was a Celestial.
What was the advantage of being a Celestial?
All class equipment proficiency and all class skills could be learned.
However, the advantage was not infinite.
It was because of Skill Points!
Celestials could obtain additional skill points as a reward, but it wouldn’t be much. In short, it was controlled within a certain range… To put it bluntly, Celestials were indeed very strong. For example, in the First Rank, others could at most cast five forbidden spells, but Celestials could learn ten.
Moreover, forbidden spell skills could be matched at will.
You can look at the synergy between the skills to match and make the power stronger.
However, encountering a skill that required 50 skill points to learn at a time made Lin Chen feel troubled.
Should he learn it or not?
Looking at the skill introduction and Zhang Tianwei’s usage effect, it was really not bad!
“Let’s look at the other skill books.”
In the end, Lin Chen gave up for the time being.
There were many skill books here.
Why not compare the products first?
As Lin Chen had expected, the skills on the top floor of the Lundao Pavilion required more skill points.
Xuan Sect’s secret technique, Earth Shrinking, was five times more expensive.
There were even some Xuan Sect dao techniques, that cost eight times.
However, most of them were immortal techniques and cost ten times the skill points!
Lin Chen’s current skill points were enough to learn a dao technique.
The cost-effectiveness ratio was not the highest.
It would be best if it was a secret technique paired with a Xuan Sect spell.
The Skill Points consumed were exactly 50 and 30 points that way.
This way, he could learn two skills.
Lin Chen walked around and finally decided to learn two.
Xuan Sect’s secret technique, Earth Shrinking!
The other was the Xuan Sect’s spell, the Object Manipulation Technique!
These two skills should be the most cost-effective ones that Lin Chen had discovered so far.
There was naturally no need to mention Earth Shrinking.
Tearing through the void and using Earth Shrinking. The initial range of this skill reached 500 miles!
After Lin Chen learned it, he directly rose it to Level 20 because of the skill upgrade Enchantment of the equipment.
Hence, this range became 5,000 miles!
However, if he wanted to use Earth Shrinking, there was a prerequisite… He could not be in a combat state!
What did that mean?
That was, he could not be locked onto by the enemy’s attack.
Or he could not attack others for ten seconds.
Otherwise, he would not be able to use Earth Shrinking.
It seemed that Lin Chen was thinking too much if he wanted to use this skill to move in battle.
However, it was definitely useful for traveling.
For example, above the sea.
The existence of the Sea Demons and the disciples of the Divine Hall made the sea almost a forbidden area… It was extremely risky to walk across it.
However, with this skill, there was no need to be afraid.
Object Manipulation Technique… As the name suggested, it could control items in the air.
It was even stronger than the Sword Control Technique.
Because… this included the Sword Control Technique.
Moreover, this skill could also be used in battle. In battle, one could control swords from afar and use some basic skills. For example, from hundreds of meters away, one could control swords to unleash sword qi.
In addition, he could condense his qi into a sword and use the Object Manipulation Technique to command the sword qi to attack the target… What delighted Lin Chen the most was that the Object Manipulation Technique could actually be related to speed.
The range of use of the Object Manipulation Technique was not only related to the level of the skill, but also the user’s speed.
What did that mean?
This was because the skill description said it the range was one’s speed divided by 1,000 yards. Then, with the skill’s level, it multiplied the range by 200 yards.
For example, Lin Chen’s speed had already reached 8,500 yards per second.
That was 8.5 plus the level of the skill, 28.5 times 200. In the end, Lin Chen’s Object Manipulation Technique’s range reached 5,700 yards!
It was about 5,000 meters.
In other words, if Lin Chen was 5,000 meters away from the enemy, he could directly attack the target with his sword.
The process of learning skills was also very simple.
After Lin Chen chose, he looked at the introduction of the skill and the drawings. Then, he touched them with his hand…
The skill book disappeared.
“F*ck, I forgot!”
Lin Chen was shocked.
If he did this, wouldn’t the books in the Lundao Pavilion be gone?
However, soon, an identical book appeared on the shelf.
“Phew… The Dao Repository in the Lundao Pavilion can be regenerated after being consumed?”
Lin Chen was overjoyed.
He learned both skills.
Then, Lin Chen took out something from his pocket…
Sea Conqueror Cauldron!
Yes, Lin Chen had unknowingly taken Genesis’ Sea Conqueror Cauldron.
At that time, because the island elves were still attacking the Royal Court, and no one knew about the Sea Conqueror Cauldron that Lin Chen had secretly taken away, he even dragged his sword 150 kilometers to chase after the island elves. Therefore, in the end, no one paid attention to where such a powerful thing like the Sea Conqueror Cauldron went!
Perhaps those elves did not care too much about treasures that were not theirs?
In short, the Sea Conqueror Cauldron belonged to Lin Chen now.
Moreover, Lin Chen discovered that this was actually a primordial treasure..
