Just like that, Du Feng was addicted to practicing the Golden Scale Protection Technique in the training room. It took him less than a day to refine the first golden scale, and three days to refine the second golden scale. He tried to control the two golden scales. If he spread them horizontally, he would be able to cover his entire body, but the area would be too large, and the defense would be reduced.
When the golden scales were about the size of a palm, the defense would be the most standard. One would be equivalent to a low-grade spirit artifact, and two overlapped would be equivalent to a mid-grade spirit artifact. If the area of impact was reduced, the defense would be slightly increased. However, if it became too large, the defense would be severely reduced.
The difficulty of each level of the Golden Scale Protection Technique was multiplied, but that didn't mean that Du Feng could cultivate the third golden scale in six days. It took him a whole month to refine the third golden scale. It seemed that the time used for cultivation was related to the level of the cultivation technique, as well as the Cultivation of the body.
It was already not easy for him to cultivate the third golden scale at the Sixth Level of Heaven Realm. If he wanted to cultivate the fourth one, it would probably take more than a year, and it wouldn't be worth it. It was better to increase his Cultivation level first. When his Cultivation level was higher and his cultivation speed was faster, he would continue practicing the Golden Scale Protection Technique.
Du Feng tried to control the three golden scales to swim along his body. Like three golden loaches, they swam faster and faster under his skin, becoming more and more agile. The purpose of doing this was to familiarize himself with the use of the golden scales. Not only did it have to be flexible, but it also had to be well-coordinated.
For example, if he was ambushed by a sharp sword, he would have to layer the three golden scales at the same time, turning into small scales to block the place where he was stabbed. However, if he was burned by fire, he would have to protect his entire body. If he was hit by Heavenly Lightning, he would have to protect his head, followed by his neck and shoulders. When facing different attacks, he would have to use them differently.
If someone stabbed him in the back, and he foolishly covered his entire body with golden scales, he would think that it was foolproof. In fact, it was very likely that he would be pierced through by a sword. Therefore, the Golden Scale Protection Technique was a good cultivation technique, but it also depended on who was using it.
"Condense!"
Du Feng tried to gather the three golden scales on his right middle finger and fused them together tightly. Then, he gently poked the ground.
With a 'puchi' sound, a small round hole appeared on the hard bluestone ground. Just as he had expected, although the golden scales couldn't leave his body and condense into golden swords or sabers, they could be attached to any part of his body. Condensing it on the finger could increase the hardness and penetrating power of the finger. By the same logic, if they were condensed at the side of the palm, a slash from the palm would be similar to a slash from a blade.
Interesting. This was probably the correct way of fighting for the experts of the Dragon World. They were different from the Dragons of the Lower Realm. They did not need weapons such as tridents at all. His body was the best weapon, able to both defend and attack.
One day, when Du Feng's Golden Scale Body Protection Art reached a high level, he would be able to control a large number of golden scales at once. By then, he might not even need to use the Riding Dragon Sword. Of course, he could only control three pieces of the Golden Dragon at the moment, which was not even at the level of a high-grade spiritual weapon. It was still incomparable to the Inborn Spiritual Weapon, the Dragon Riding Sword.
Eh, what's going on?
Du Feng condensed the three pieces on his finger and was playing with them happily. Suddenly, he felt a commotion in the small world of the necklace. He probed it with his divine sense and found that there was a problem with the Demonic Ruler. This ruler seemed to be very unaccustomed to the golden scales. When Du Feng used this kind of technique, it would become restless.
Du Feng kept the technique and the Demonic Ruler no longer became restless. He immediately understood that these two things must be in conflict with each other. The Demonic Ruler had indeed helped Du Feng a lot in the past, especially when he was fighting against the White Bone General. However, borrowing the demonic power of the Demonic Ruler was also dangerous. It almost made him lose his mind and turn into a demon.
It might be a good thing that the golden scales could restrain the Demonic Ruler to a certain extent. In order to prevent himself from over-relying on demonic techniques, it was better to use the Demonic Ruler less. In the Heaven Realm, especially in the Immortal City, it was very dangerous to use demonic techniques. Since he had a new technique, Du Feng temporarily did not use demonic techniques.
During this month, the bookstore did not have any trouble because Su Susu did not call him with a voice transmission talisman. Because there were no more discounts, the business in the bookstore also stabilized. Xiao Qiang Qiang took some books from Du Feng and was probably practicing hard.
Du Feng did not expect to make a lot of money from the bookstore, so he did not care about it. He stopped the technique and stretched. He pushed open the door to get some fresh air and gave Xiao Qiang Qiang some pointers on techniques.
Zhou Jianli was a bit embarrassed to see Du Feng. Because the bookstore was not so busy, she was not needed. However, Du Feng did not say anything about firing her, so she continued to work here. After all, the salary here was high.
"You guys go, I'll talk to Xiao Qiang."
Of course, Du Feng would not fire her. After all, this was Chen Lei's request. If he directly gave Zhou Jianli money, she would be too embarrassed to accept it. That bit of money was nothing to Du Feng. He would let her stay here for a long time. At the same time, there was someone to talk to Su Susu, so she would not be bored.
"Master, I heard that there will be a few auctions in a few days. Do you want to go?"
Xiao Qiang Qiang used to call Du Feng Big Brother, but after learning from him, he changed to call him Master. This was a form of respect and recognition of his skills.
"What auction? Is it big?"
It was not that Du Feng was arrogant, but he had inherited the old man's bookstore. He had a lot of good cultivation technique jade scrolls, the Dragon Riding Sword for weapons, the demonic armor for defense, and the Golden Scale Body Protection Technique for Dragons. He even had the Medicine King Tripod for alchemy. He really didn't care about ordinary auctions.
"I heard that there will be beast and slave auctions. You can buy a few shop assistants. Most of those slaves are martial artists from the Lower World, and they have a hard life. "
In fact, Xiao Qiang Qiang was just saying it casually. He felt that since Master was so capable and rich, his business would definitely expand in the future. He would probably build a Du Residence or something, and then he would need servants to serve him. Besides, those martial artists from the Lower World were sold as slaves, and it was quite pitiful.
As the saying goes, the listener may not mean it. Du Feng, of course, did not want servants, and he did not lack shop assistants for the time being. However, when he heard that martial artists from the Lower World were sold as slaves, he immediately paid attention. Because he was also a martial artist from the Lower World, and he was seriously injured on the way here. If not for his luck, he would not even have the chance to be a slave, and would have died a long time ago.
"In that case, help me get an admission ticket. How much money do you need, you can get it from the counter."
