Chapter 129: Not Enough Grids
Lu Li was not sure what the mechanism was, and although this external skill had become passive, it was not what he had imagined, where it would wrap around him and fire endlessly.

Instead, it became a passive skill that could be activated, just like most passive skills could be switched on and off. The moment this passive skill called 'Red Fire Cannon' was turned on, he could manually release the Red Fire Cannon once.

This situation was different from the Red Fire Cannon entanglement state that Lu Li had originally expected, and the passive activation switch had a 2-second CD, which made Lu Li not very satisfied.

He speculated at the time that this was probably caused by the insufficient growth level of the Origin Spirit Seed. Now this speculation has been confirmed. He just put the Red Fire Cannon into the slot and the CD became 1 second.

If the origin spirit seed can continue to germinate and grow, perhaps in the future the CD of this skill will disappear and it will become his ideal state of fusion with the physical body, which is a true passive state.

Of course, Lu Li was just doing a comparative experiment. In real combat, he did not plan to put the Red Fire Cannon in the grid. Instead, he would choose a high-cost ghost technique that would drain his energy once released, such as the binding technique with outstanding defense - 'Severing Sky'.

Depending on the situation on the battlefield, Lu Li might also choose to put Hui Dao in the grid. He had tested it before and it was probably because Hui Dao was originally intended for self-repair, so it could be transformed into a perfect passive ability.

When the Huidao skill is placed in the grid, it becomes a passive skill similar to super-speed regeneration, which will be very useful in adverse battle situations.

It’s just that Lu Li only had one grid before, so he gave priority to placing Armament Haki. After all, Armament Haki can combine offense and defense. With the high defense of Armament Haki, he usually won’t suffer serious injuries.

"It's not enough..."

Lu Li complained to himself, he could only say that he felt more and more that the space in the origin spirit seed slot was not enough, and he really wanted to stuff all the good skills into it.

Unfortunately, there are only two grids at present, and the CD for changing placement skills is extremely long, so it is impossible to switch at will in actual combat. In most cases, the abilities allocated in advance are used.

Lu Li was sitting on the bed watching anime at this time. When he breathed, he naturally used the breathing method he learned from Demon Slayer. At the same time, he was distracted to practice the spiritual pressure training method. This was also a last resort, because he just released the Red Fire Cannon to test the CD change, and he had to wait until tomorrow to practice the spiritual pressure training method.

…………

The next morning, Lu Li ended his pleasant all-night anime watching session. Since spiritual pressure training itself also had a meditative effect, he did not seem very tired.

[The Pioneer's consignment items have been sold successfully. Please receive the End Coins via your mailbox. 】

Before he had breakfast, Lu Li received a reminder from the End Space.

He checked his mailbox and found that all the items he had consigned had been sold. He had rejected some previous emails requesting a bargain, so they were sold at the original price.

Now he had another 63000 End of the World Coins in his account, and he was well off again. Counting the remaining money from before, he still had more than End of the World Coins.

After washing up, Lu Li applied for the End Space.

[Finally, help me strengthen my Armament Haki. ]

他的武装色霸气目前是12级，强化至13级需要2800点终焉币和5块传承结晶.小，后续强化每级多收400终焉币。

He strengthened it three times in a row, spending a total of 9600 End Coins, and the remaining inheritance crystals were also used up.

After the Armament Haki reached level 15, Lu Li felt as if it had reached a watershed again. He asked the space and found out that to continue strengthening it, he would not need a small inheritance crystal, but a medium inheritance crystal.

He could also clearly feel that his Armament Haki had reached a bottleneck, and in a field where there was no qualitative change, its power had reached its peak.

He tried to deduce and imitate Ryuo according to what he saw in the animation, but ended in failure. It might be because there is a difference between animation and reality. He did not see how the power works with his own eyes, so it was a bit difficult to make a breakthrough just by imagination and imitation.

However, Lu Li did not give up. He felt that he had found the trick, and his current continuous practice was not in vain. Once he broke through, the level of his Armament Haki would increase rapidly.

After upgrading a very important passive skill in combat, Lu Li turned off the TV and prepared to go to the trading market again.

Maybe it was because his luck attribute had improved, but Lu Li quickly found something that suited him this time.

The first item was a pair of boots, which were foot equipment. The stall owner should be someone sent out by an adventure group to sell the goods, and there were all kinds of things on the stall.

【Walking on the Clouds】

Origin: Native World No. 339185

Quality: Legend

Equipment type: Footwear

Durability: 200/200

Cooling time: 60 minutes

Rating: 330 points

Evaluation: Ride the wind and walk on the clouds.

The End Space's evaluation of this equipment is rare, but this is not the main reason why Lu Li chose it. Instead, he thinks that this equipment is very suitable for a lone ranger like himself. Its overall score is not very high among legendary equipment, and many explorers may not use it much in terms of functionality, but he can use these skills.

First of all, because he has mastered advanced instant steps and thunder breathing techniques, he can move extremely fast when he bursts out with all his strength. However, there are some problems. The faster the speed, the greater the air resistance, which will not only limit his speed increase, but also consume more of his physical strength.

Therefore, the passive skill of Riding the Wind is extremely useful to himself, or rather, it is very practical for many explorers with high speed. However, there are very few second-level explorers who can have his speed.

The second skill, Walking on the Clouds, is also useless to most explorers. Even if the influence of gravity is reduced, they cannot float in the air. At most, it can only slow down the falling time and impact force. But it is different for me.

The instant movement he learned in the world of death actually allows him to walk in the air, but he needs to create a foothold for his own spirit particles.

With Lu Li's current spiritual pressure, this is a rather strenuous action, so most of the Shinigami in the world of Shinigami also run on the ground, and only those above the rank of chief officer will walk in the air in specific combat situations.

But with the skill of walking on the clouds, he only needed to consume a small amount of soul power to create a foothold, so that he could accomplish the feat of walking in the air and mastered the semi-flying skill.

The benefits of mastering the ability to step in the air in combat are self-evident. Not only can it improve one's own mobility, but it can also allow for more varied tactics.

As for the last skill, it is even more superb. The Cloud Piercing skill is equivalent to a "flash". The only drawback is that the CD is too long. But at the critical moment, a flash is enough to save lives or determine victory.

So overall, this piece of equipment is also very good for ordinary second-level explorers, so the stall owner's price is not low, asking for 70,000 End Coins.

"Fifty thousand. I want it."

Lu Li tried to lower the price because according to the market conditions, the value of a piece of legendary equipment is between 3 and 10. Foot gear is not a main weapon, so the price the other party sold was indeed a bit expensive.

"No, my bid is the lowest price."

The stall owner shook his head.

"Cloud Piercer is a very powerful skill, but it's just a foot piece. Its overall value is not that high. Not many people in the market can afford legendary equipment. How many days have you been selling it?"

Lu Li asked back after finishing his narration. It was not like he had not observed the market economy within the space. Legendary equipment was considered top-notch stuff among second-level explorers, and few people could afford it.

Like Xuefeng whom he had met before, he heard that the other party was the second place in the second-level arena. Only the leader of such a large adventure group would have a set of legendary equipment. Ordinary second-level explorers could not afford legendary equipment at all.

Seventy thousand End of Life coins are enough to buy a good main weapon. If it is a large adventure group, they will be more inclined to buy a shield for the main tank or a spellcasting medium for the nurse, and will not buy a pair of foot gear.

There are only two types of customers for this kind of thing. One is the leader of an adventure group who is always striving for perfection and has spare money. The other is a powerful lone ranger, that is, someone like Lu Li.

Obviously, there are not many of these two types of people in the market, and everyone has their own development direction and different needs, so the possibility of selling this footwear at a high price is even smaller.

Sure enough, after hearing Lu Li's words, the stall owner's expression was a little unnatural, "Fifty thousand is not enough anyway."

He was in charge of sales in the Mammoth Adventure Group. They didn't want to consume the foot gear internally because they wanted to sell it for money, and eventually give their main tank a new shield. He understood the logic behind Lu Li's words, because he had indeed been selling it in the space for a week, and few people asked about the foot gear. Even if they were interested, they would leave after hearing the price.

"Fifty-five thousand, this is the limit of my offer."

Lu Li said in a calm tone.

The stall owner was a little hesitant after hearing this, but he did not refuse directly because their adventure group would be entering the new world in a week and they couldn't keep the goods in stock.

"Wait a mininute."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and seemed to be communicating with the team members. After a while, a giant man over two meters tall walked over quickly. The stall owner stood up and said respectfully, "Team leader."

The sturdy man was shirtless, with animal skins draped over his shoulders, like a primitive man. He looked at Lu Li with a hearty smile on his face, "Brother, how about this, you join our adventure group, and I'll give you this set of foot gear."

Lu Li was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect this to happen, but he still shook his head and said, "I have no intention of joining the adventure group for the time being."

The other party recruited him with a legendary equipment, which can be said to be very sincere. However, he is a pioneer and there are always some personal tasks that he cannot tell the team members, so he is not suitable to follow the team.

If he needs an adventuring group, he will form one himself and take advantage of the group's team skills.

"Haha, it seems that I guessed right, you are indeed a lone wolf."

The strong man was not angry when he heard this. He smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't join. Just treat it as making friends. Fifty-five thousand, right? Little Wolf, trade with him."

Upon hearing this, the stall owner picked up the foot sets and made a deal with Lu Li, who paid readily without further bargaining.

"My name is Titan, what do you call me, my friend?"

the sturdy man asked after the transaction was completed.

"Imprison the demon."

Lu Li said his nickname in the End Space. Few people in the space would use their real names.

After saying that, Lu Li prepared to leave, but was stopped by Titan, which made Lu Li a little confused.

"It's like this, Brother Prisoner, you should be a very strong lone ranger. Do you need any long-range weapons?"

Titan explained.
