Lu Xuan did not need to use any movement skills to easily defeat opponents in the Body Refinement Realm. His target was the Spirit Refinement Realm experts. When fighting against Spirit Refinement Realm experts, attack, defense, and speed were all indispensable.
In terms of attack, he had the Upper Grade Human Level Broken Ice Sword and the Middle Grade Mysterious Level Dragon Sword Technique. In terms of defense, he had the Precious Armor that Instructor Yang had just given him. The only thing he lacked was speed.
In the third floor of the Martial Skill Pavilion, the number of movement skills was obviously less than the other types of martial skills. The huge bookshelf was empty and there were only a few abridged martial skills.
Lu Xuan counted and found that there were only five books in total.
"Ghostly Shadow Steps, after mastering it, the steps will be ghostly and unpredictable. If mastered to the extreme, you will be able to condense four phantoms. Whether attacking or escaping, it will be very effective." The first abridged martial skill that Lu Xuan picked up was written as such. It was obvious that this was a phantom-like movement skill.
After muttering to himself for a moment, Lu Xuan shook his head. Even though the Ghostly Shadow Steps was good, he already had the Rolling Thunder Flash. In terms of close combat, the effects of the Rolling Thunder Flash and the Ghostly Shadow Steps were not too different.
Putting down the Ghostly Shadow Steps, Lu Xuan continued to look at the remaining four sets of martial skills.
"Ten Steps, within ten steps, move at will and be able to move nimbly around the enemy." It was another set of similar martial skills. Lu Xuan put it down again.
"Great Roc Spreading Wings, circulate the martial skill and increase the speed to the limit. It is suitable for short distance travel or chasing after the enemy." Holding the abridged Great Roc Spreading Wings, Lu Xuan nodded his head. This martial skill could be considered. However, this martial skill was too fast and not flexible enough. It was not very practical in battle, so it was temporarily included in the scope of consideration.
Lu Xuan also knew that his requirements might be a little high. He wanted both speed and agility. Right now, there were still two body technique techniques that he had yet to look through. If there wasn't a suitable one, then he would choose the Great Roc Spreading Wings. At most, he would use the Great Roc Spreading Wings when he was chasing an enemy or escaping for his life, and use the Rushing Thunder Flash when he was in battle.
Stretching out his hand, Lu Xuan picked up the last two Martial Techniques. He quickly scanned through them. The Cloud Roaming Steps allowed one to move around the enemy as if they were walking on clouds. It was extremely nimble, but it was very difficult to practice.
There was one last book left. The name of the book was extremely cool, it was called the Wind Riding Art. Lu Xuan flipped it open with interest and looked at the introduction of this Martial Technique.
"The Wind Riding Art, as the name suggests, rides on the wind to move. In battle, no matter if it is the enemy or the user, they will definitely move. Once they move, it will create a wind. This wind is the requirement for the Wind Riding Art to exist."
"When rushing, one can borrow the wind to increase one's speed to the limit, saving a lot of Essence. Whether it is a short distance or a long distance, it is extremely suitable. In battle, one can borrow the wind to move and dodge, doing as one pleases, easily dodging the enemy's attack. This is because when the enemy makes a move, there will be a different wind, changing the original trajectory. Hence, the movements are hard to predict."
As the words entered Lu Xuan's eyes, the joy on Lu Xuan's face became even brighter. Wasn't this Wind Riding Art exactly what he needed? It was even stronger than what he had expected. Not only did it have an extremely fast speed, it also had the ability to nimbly dodge. It even borrowed the wind to make the movements unfathomable. This was because it would not change according to the user's subjective intentions. Even the user himself did not know where his next step would be, so how would the enemy be able to predict it?
Lu Xuan couldn't help but put down the original Roc Spreading Wings and seriously read the introduction of the Wind Riding Art. He once again flipped to the next page of the abridged book, and the requirements for cultivating the Wind Riding Art appeared before his eyes.
"The Wind Riding Art is extremely difficult to cultivate. If you cultivate it bitterly, you will have no worries. If you want to successfully cultivate it, you must comprehend the concept of wind. The deeper the comprehension of the concept of wind, the stronger the Wind Riding Art will be!"
After reading this paragraph, Lu Xuan was slightly shocked. It actually required one to comprehend the concept of wind? If one couldn't comprehend the concept of wind, one could at most only reach the entry level?
That's right, if one wanted to borrow the wind to move, if one couldn't comprehend the concept of wind and completely grasp the characteristics of the wind, how would one be able to ride the wind? Lu Xuan couldn't help but secretly nod. This Martial Art was powerful, so it was normal for it to have a higher requirement.
"Hey, there's even a line of small words?" Lu Xuan found that after this paragraph, there was another line of smaller words.
"The lost art created by me, the Wind Devil, just because it is difficult to cultivate, its grade was lowered, and it was only evaluated as a low-grade Profound Level Martial Art. What a joke! If one can't even comprehend the concept of wind, how could he be qualified to cultivate the art created by me, the Wind Devil? What a joke! "
From these small words, Lu Xuan could sense the disdain and helplessness of the Wind Demon, who had created this martial art technique. Since this person had become the Wind Demon, it was clear that he had extremely high attainments in the Way of Wind. He had spent so much effort to create this ultimate technique, yet it was only rated as a Inferior Black Level martial art technique. One could imagine how dissatisfied he was.
However, the requirement to cultivate this Flying Art was not low. One needed to comprehend the concept of wind to reach the advanced level. It should be known that out of all the core disciples in the Wind Sword School, only Kong Wen Bin had comprehended the concept of ice. The number of warriors who could cultivate this Martial Art was very limited.
"Low-grade Profound Level Martial Art it is, as long as it is strong enough. If it wasn't a low-grade Profound Level Martial Art, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to obtain it." A smile appeared on Lu Xuan's face. The grade of the Martial Art was just a standard set by the ancestors. Only by truly cultivating it, would one know how powerful the Martial Art was.
Since it was a supreme art created by that unknown Wind Devil, it should not be too bad. As for the fact that he needed to comprehend the Will of Wind, so be it. Lu Xuan believed that as long as he was willing to put in the effort, it would not be a problem.
Thinking of this, Lu Xuan no longer hesitated. He put the abridged Flying Art back and walked to the other bookshelves. Although he could only choose one book this time, if there were other good Martial Arts, it wouldn't be a bad idea to come back next time.
At this moment, Lin Tian was standing in front of the bookshelf of Sword Arts. He was fascinated by the abridged Martial Art. Looking at these Martial Arts, he suddenly felt that the Phantom Chain Sword that he had chosen before was of a very low level. Compared to the two, the Phantom Chain Sword was not even worth mentioning!
"Good stuff, good stuff. Hmm, I must obtain this Star Point Sword Art, and also this Ten Absolute Swords, and this …" Lin Tian kept muttering to himself. He couldn't wait to get his hands on all the Martial Arts. He was completely immersed in reading and didn't even notice the arrival of Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan didn't disturb him. He casually flipped through the abridged Martial Arts. These Martial Arts were indeed of a higher level than the Yellow Level Martial Arts on the second floor. However, there wasn't a single Martial Art that could make Lu Xuan's eyes light up. There wasn't even a Martial Art that could compare to the Startling Cloud Sword Art, let alone the Dragon Sword Art.
One should know that the Startling Cloud Sword Art was passed down by the ancestors of the Zhang Family. Although it was classified as a Black Level Lower Level Martial Art, that was the standard of the Zhang Family's ancestors. After so many years, with the loss of some Martial Arts, the standard kept decreasing. If it was taken out to be evaluated now, it could definitely be regarded as a Black Level Middle Level Martial Art. Of course, it was just the lowest among the Black Level Middle Level Martial Arts.
After roughly flipping through the Sword Art, Lu Xuan lost interest. He knew the truth of biting off more than he could chew. It was better not to waste time on those Martial Arts that were not very useful to him.
After taking a look, Lu Xuan then went to the bookshelf where some secret Martial Arts were stored. Most of these secret Martial Arts were forbidden techniques that could increase one's strength in a short period of time at the cost of damaging one's foundation. Lu Xuan wasn't too interested in them at the moment. It was easy to damage one's foundation, but it was difficult to recover it.
He originally wanted to see if there were any Martial Arts books about the use of the power of the bloodline, but he didn't find anything. Obviously, the power of the bloodline was not something a third-grade sect like the Wind Sword School could come into contact with.
At that moment, he didn't look anymore and returned to Instructor Yang and the others.
"Hmm? You've chosen so quickly? " Instructor Yang asked. Lu Xuan was the main character in choosing Martial Arts, but he was the first one to choose. On the other hand, Lin Tian and Mo Qiushen were still looking through the books.
"Yes, I've chosen the Wind Riding Technique. I hope Instructor Yang can help me get it." Lu Xuan said respectfully.
"Hmm, no problem. You can choose any of the Martial Arts." Instructor Yang nodded, and then he was suddenly stunned. He slowly turned his head to look at Lu Xuan and said, "You chose the Wind Riding Technique?"
"Yes." Lu Xuan answered. Obviously, Instructor Yang also knew about the Wind Riding Technique.
After confirming that he didn't hear it wrong, Instructor Yang frowned and said after a while, "The Wind Riding Technique is indeed very powerful, but it has a very high requirement. It's hard to achieve much in a short period of time, and it might even be impossible to achieve great success in your lifetime. Many disciples have coveted this Martial Art, but none of them managed to learn it."
Instructor Yang patiently explained to Lu Xuan, "Even Kong Wenbin, who had already comprehended the state of ice, had once chosen this martial technique. However, he was unable to comprehend the state of wind, so in the end, he gave up and wasted a chance to choose a martial technique. Soon, the Profound Ice Pavilion Secret Realm will open. I advise you to choose a martial technique that can help you achieve success in a short period of time. That way, it will be more helpful."
Instructor Yang specifically used Kong Wen Bin as an example. Being able to comprehend the Ice Conception, Kong Wen Bin's comprehension ability was recognized. However, even he couldn't master the Wind Riding Technique, which showed how difficult it was.
"No problem, I want to try." Lu Xuan didn't change his mind. With such a powerful Martial Art in front of him, how could he be willing to choose a weaker one?
Seeing that he couldn't persuade Lu Xuan, Instructor Yang sighed and said, "If that's the case, then alright. Once you've made your choice, you can't change it. Think carefully."
"I've made up my mind."
"Hmm, I'll give you the complete Wind Riding Technique later." Instructor Yang nodded. He couldn't help but think that with Lu Xuan's comprehension ability, he might really be able to master the Wind Riding Technique.
