After a period of time, Di Chong lived in this Luoling City, and in addition to cultivating, he usually studied some exercises and secret techniques, and even alchemy refining tools and the way of formations, as long as it was something that was conducive to improving his strength, Di Chong would dabble in one or two. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In addition, he also walked to Luoling City every three or five days, and the purpose was naturally to collect the materials he needed.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye, but Di Chong has already run all the large and small shops in Luoling City, and even the Fang Market, which is often visited by Qi refining period monks, Di Chong has been there several times in his spare time.

Moreover, after more than a year, Di Chong has also found out about the underground black market in this Luoling City, as well as the auctions organized by various forces, as long as the auctions are held in this Luoling City, Di Chong has almost all of them participated.

Even if Di Chong worked so hard to collect, except for some good materials collected through the Miao Lin Pavilion, the harvest in other places could be said to be very small, and he could only collect some ordinary spiritual objects, but there were very few high-level spiritual objects.

At this time, Di Chong also truly realized the dilemma of the survival of the Yuan Infant Cultivator, once the cultivation reached the existence of the Yuan Infant Stage, there were not many spiritual objects that could be used to assist in cultivation, and most of them were still extremely rare existences, and it was too difficult to collect.

In addition, the spiritual energy of the world is thin now, all kinds of elixir materials are also very poor, and many spiritual objects have long been extinct, so it is extremely difficult for the Yuan Infant Stage Monk to advance.

However, most of the monks who advanced to the middle and even late stages had to slowly accumulate for more than a hundred years or even hundreds of years, so that they had the opportunity to break through the bottleneck between the small realms of the Yuan Infant Stage and advance to the next realm.

And those monks who have a great chance to obtain a breakthrough bottleneck spirit object, so that they can advance to the next realm in one fell swoop with the assistance of the spirit object in a short period of time, are really rare, very few.

At least after Di Chong advanced to the Yuan Infant Stage, he had never heard of that Yuan Infant Stage cultivator, by chance, obtained some kind of extremely rare spiritual object, so that his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and even broke through to the next realm in one fell swoop.

However, for more than a year, Di Chong has also been very low-key, and when he goes out to walk, he hides his cultivation in the middle of Jindan, so he has been active in Luoling City for more than a year, and there are few people who know that he is a Yuan Infant Stage monk.

In addition to Miaolin of the Miaolin Pavilion, there are a few people who know Di Chong's true cultivation and are the heads of several other shops, and these people are also existences with big power backgrounds behind them.

The monks who have been in the material business all the year round are naturally very ghostly, and they will not spread the news to the outside world, except for revealing their identities to a few high-ranking people in their own forces.

After all, no matter what the power, it was really not a wise move to offend a Yuanying Monk because of such a trivial matter.

Of course, after dealing with Di Chong a few times, they will occasionally choose a time that is not easy to be discovered, and visit Di Chong back and forth a few times, in addition to exchanging cultivation experiences, is to get closer to the relationship between the two parties.

But after all, Di Chong was only a medium-sized cave mansion leased, and most of the monks nearby were Jindan monks, and under Di Chong's deliberate hiding, these Jindan monks naturally couldn't see Di Chong's true cultivation.

On this day, Di Chong was not in the cave, but in a cave not far from his cave, and the owner of this cave was an old man in the late Jindan period.

After all, Di Chong has been in and out frequently for more than a year, and he can naturally meet these neighbors often during this period, Di Chong's character will not deliberately befriend these people, but Di Chong will not refuse to be good friends with others and himself.

First, it is due to Di Chong's own character, and secondly, he is blindly lonely and arrogant, and if he does not associate with these monks, it will inevitably make people doubt his identity, and then there may be some gossip.

So in order to better disguise his identity, Di Chong occasionally interacts with these people, but he doesn't have deep friendships.

This old man in the late stage of Jindan is named Zhang Yang, but his personality is not ostentatious at all, at first glance, he is the kind of old and cunning person who has been in the world for a long time, but this person is quite accomplished in the way of alchemy, and he is even favored by several forces in Luo Ling City.

Not only did he invite him to be a guest of Elder Qing, but the pills refined by this person were also sold by these forces, and he earned a lot of spirit stones.

This person has invited Di Chong several times before, but Di Chong has always been in the presence of something important, and then shirked it, I don't want this person to come to the door to invite him again yesterday, saying that he has found a few Taoist friends to exchange experiences together.

Others invited him again and again, and Di Chong had no choice but to come.

At this time, there are two other monks in this old man's cave, these two are also rented caves near here, and they are also Di Chong's neighbors, and they have also met each other before, so they are not too strangers.

One is a middle-aged man in a black robe, named Sun Chu, who looks a little cold, giving people the feeling that he is not good at talking, but his cultivation is not weak, this old man is as flamboyant as he is, and he is also the cultivation of Jindan in the later period.

The other person is a female cultivator in the middle of Jindan, known as Mrs. Liu, as for whether her surname is Liu or her husband's surname Liu, no one knows.

Medium-sized, average-looking, and looks like she is in her thirties, this woman is very talkative, and the four of them gather together, and most of the conversation is between this woman and that Zhang Yang.

Di Chong just interjected a sentence and a half from time to time, sometimes he was asked, so he opened his mouth to say a few words, but how did Sun Chu talk from beginning to end, only when asked by others, this was a short reply to the last two sentences.

Suddenly, Zhang Yang's words changed but he said, "Liu Daoyou, have you heard that there is news of the recent birth of a strange treasure in the wasteland forest?"

The old man's face changed slightly, and Di Chong unconsciously began to listen carefully, and even Sun Chu, who had never been very loud, couldn't help but move his ears a little at this time.

"Hey, Zhang Daoyou, have you heard about this matter too? This matter has been making a lot of noise in Luoling City recently, how could I not know it, it's just that this news is a little strange, not to mention that we are waiting, even those big forces can't figure out the truth of this matter now. Mrs. Liu spoke eloquently at this time.

"No wind or waves, I recently learned that someone has begun to sell maps of the wasteland forest. ”

"Could it be that the wasteland forest that the two Daoists are talking about is the wasteland forest where the demon valley is located that day?"

"Hey! Mo Fei Di Daoyou also received the news, there is only one place in Liangzhou called the wasteland forest. The two of them heard Di Chong suddenly interject, but they both turned their eyes away, and they were a little surprised.

Di Mou was a little lonely and unheard of, and he didn't know about it, but when the two Taoist friends talked about this wasteland forest, they thought of the dangerous place of the Heavenly Demon Valley. ”

"Heavenly Demon Valley is not a place where Jindan monks like us can easily set foot in, and the only thing we can go to is to wander around this wasteland forest, where to rush to Heavenly Demon Valley?"

"It's not a secret, this time Zhang Mou asked a few Taoist friends to come for this purpose, I and a few others are all serious Eight Classics of loose cultivation, and even the scattered cultivation alliance has not joined, so I plan to go to find out after a few days of news investigation, I don't know what a few Taoist friends think?"

Hearing this, Di Chong's expression was calm, but the expressions of the other two were obviously a little more solemn, and they seemed to start thinking about what Zhang Yang said for a while, and they didn't say a word.

At this time, it has now spread, it is not a secret at all, if a few Taoist friends have no intention of making this trip, Zhang then invited several other Taoist friends to discuss. ”

This matter is so powerful in Luoling City, it is estimated that there are probably no more monks who go when the time comes, and this statement is nothing more than an attempt to provoke a few people, and they will still have a large number of monks to go.

"Anyway, the concubine has been fine recently, since Zhang Daoyou is interested, the concubine will go with Zhang Daoyou. The woman thought for a moment, then responded.

At the same time, Zhang Yang also turned his gaze to Sun Chu, and the meaning of the inquiry was very obvious.

Since Liu Daoyou is willing to go, Sun also agreed to the trip. ”

That Zhang Yang had obviously seen Di Chong's calm demeanor a long time ago, so he expected that Di Chong would inevitably agree to go, so he was the last to ask him, and the answer he got was naturally as he expected, and Di Chong was willing to go.

Since the four people present agreed to the trip, the next step was to discuss the details of some actions and the distribution of some benefits.

The reason why Di Chong agreed to go with these people was not because he valued the birth of any strange treasures, but because he had already had his own plans.

After this period of running around in Luo Ling City, the matter of collecting materials seems to be the same as that of the cultivators, and it has entered a bottleneck period for a period of time, and there is almost no news of the spiritual objects that he needs during this time.

Of course, the so-called bottleneck of collecting materials only means that the circulation of these materials requires a process and time, and after a while, even those shops that mainly sell materials need to wait for the arrival of the next batch of goods.

Therefore, Di Chong thought about it quietly, and planned to go to the Heavenly Demon Valley to explore, after all, he still had a map of the Xuanyangzi ruins in his hand, and he planned to explore the ruins, maybe there would be unexpected gains.

But he didn't want to hear the news of the birth of this strange treasure here, and Di Chong didn't mind walking with the three Jindan monks by coincidence.

As for the wasteland forest, it depends on the situation, if there is really any strange treasure born, you might as well go and see, if not, you will say goodbye to these people by the way, and go to the Heavenly Demon Valley by yourself.

And teaming up with a few Jindan monks also has a lot of benefits, at least you don't have to worry about these people calculating themselves, after all, in the face of absolute strength, any calculation will not work.
