Chapter 21: Attacked
As soon as the trading conference ended, Zhao Di packed up all his belongings and quietly left Liuyunfang City, where he had lived for more than seven years.
Zhao Di still wears a black gauze cloak on his head and a hundred feather boots on his feet. The scale armor was also worn close to the body, because it was very thin, and after a gray robe was put on the outside, it could not be seen.
He didn't seem to be in a hurry, like a leisurely stroll, but his speed was not slow, and he walked more than 800 miles in less than two days and two nights. Along the way, he carefully released his divine consciousness and listened to the wind and grass in the surrounding environment.
Since his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, Zhao Di obviously feels that his divine sense is getting stronger and stronger, and he can now put his divine sense outside a radius of about five hundred meters, and collect every move in this area, every grass and tree in his heart. Farther away, the senses were not as sharp, but if a monk came within a thousand meters of him, he could still sense it easily.
At this time, Zhao Di sensed that there were two monks not far in front of him, standing motionless.
With his cautious surname, it was naturally best to take a detour and not have any contact with the other monks at all. But the position occupied by these two monks happened to be the place where he had to pass, and if he wanted to make a detour, he was afraid that it would take a lot of time.
Zhao Di thought about it for a while, but still chose to walk over directly, with the spiritual power fluctuations he sensed, these two monks should not be able to cultivate highly, if they are more cautious, there should be no danger.
A moment later, in front of a narrow valley, he saw these two monks, both of whom were cultivators of the seventh or eighth level of the Qi refining period, one was a middle-aged man with a rough face and a beard, and the other was a young man in white, his face was almost bloodless, as if he had been ill for a long time.
The two of them also saw Zhao Di immediately, and after glancing at the aura fluctuations on Zhao Di's body, they immediately showed different expressions. The middle-aged man showed more surprise, while the white-faced young man was happy. The white-faced young man glanced at the middle-aged man, who was stunned and immediately squeezed out a few smiles, and the two walked towards Zhao Di together, and they both bowed deeply. Zhao Di also replied lightly.
The white-faced young man took the lead and said, "Daoist friends are planning to pass through the White Cloud Valley from here and exit the Liuyun Mountain Range?"
"Not bad. What are the opinions of the two Daoists, and what changes have not been made in the valley?" Zhao Di saw that the cultivation of the two was not very high, and he did not hide it.
The white-faced young man and the middle-aged man glanced at each other, and the middle-aged man said in a thick nasal voice: "Zai Xia and this white-faced brother are also going to enter the valley, I don't know if I can walk with Daoyou." I heard that this valley is not very peaceful, and there are many people who take care of each other, I don't know what to do?" It turned out that the two of them took a fancy to Zhao Di's advanced cultivation and wanted to use his majesty to walk through this dangerous valley together.
Zhao Di said coldly: "No need, I'm used to being alone, and I don't like to be lively." After speaking, he strode from the two of them into the valley.
"Fellow Daoist, wait, this ......" The white-faced young man also wanted to say a few words of persuasion, but he didn't expect the other party to be so anxious, and he didn't give him a chance to say more at all.
Zhao Di has already rejected three or four batches of monks who have dragged him into the gang like this. Without knowing the identity of the other party, he did not dare to put this dangerous uncertainty by his side.
This Baiyun Valley didn't seem to be as dangerous as the two monks said, Zhao Di walked cautiously all the way, but he didn't encounter a single monk, and after two or three hours, he passed through this valley, and was about to leave the range of the Liuyun Mountain Range.
After leaving the Liuyun Mountain Range, even if you enter the secular realm, the chance of encountering a monk is very low, and the risk is even smaller.
At this time, Zhao Di's divine sense sensed that two more low-level cultivators appeared in front of him, and their cultivation seemed to be lower.
In two or three minutes, Zhao Di walked more than 100 meters in front of the two of them and stopped. This distance was a relatively safe range for Qi Refining Stage cultivators.
Because within this distance, the monks can directly sense the opponent's cultivation level through the aura fluctuations, and at this distance, it is difficult for magic weapons to attack directly. For Qi refining stage cultivators, the proportion of divine consciousness required to use the longitudinal magic weapon is quite large, so it is difficult to skillfully control the magic weapon from a distance, and once the magic weapon is seventy or eighty meters away from the body, it becomes extremely difficult to make it.
Even if he is around him, with the divine consciousness of a Qi refining period cultivator, he can generally use only one or two magic weapons at most. Otherwise, with Zhao Di's net worth, he could have bought a bunch of medium-grade and low-grade magic weapons, and attacked the other party in one fell swoop when he encountered danger. It is precisely because there is a limit on the number of things that are refined rather than more.
Zhao Di was a little puzzled, the two monks in front of him, one was a beautiful young woman at the third layer of the Qi Refining Period, and the other was a black-faced man who looked like the second layer of the Qi Refining Period. How could such a low-level monk come to participate in the trading conference of Liuyunfang City. And both of them have a bulging protrusion around their waists, which is obviously the appearance of a storage bag, aren't they afraid of being targeted and killing people and goods?
When the two low-level monks saw Zhao Di coming, they hurriedly clasped their fists and saluted, and the black-faced man said loudly: "I don't know where you are going, can you go with the next couple and the next couple?"
"No need, I'm used to walking alone, and I don't like to be lively. Zhao Di coldly refused, and after speaking, he strode over.
"Fellow Daoist, please stay, Fellow Daoist ......" The young woman still wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhao Di with a wave of her hand.
It seemed that after such a rude refusal, the young woman felt a little embarrassed, her face was slightly red, and her hands that had been clenched into fists and salutes were lowered in front of her.
The same was true of the black-faced man, with a sinister self-deprecating smile on his face, his hands rubbing unconsciously against the outside of his thighs.
Zhao Di has not let his guard down, and these subtle actions have fallen into his eyes.
Suddenly, the man waved his hand unexpectedly, and a golden light shot out with a whistling wind that broke through the air, and it arrived in front of Zhao Di's eyes in the blink of an eye.
Zhao Di seemed to have been prepared, and the moment the black-faced man raised his hand, almost at the same time, a small black black shield the size of a palm appeared in front of him, and his figure immediately skyrocketed to a meter long and wide. Xiao Dun's body emitted a faint black light, protecting Zhao Di inside.
At this time, the golden light attacked the black light, and the two burst out with a dazzling light. The golden light was blocked by the black light, and he couldn't get close to Zhao Di anymore.
At this time, the aura on the beautiful young woman and the black-faced man was greatly moved, where was it still a low-level Qi Refining Stage cultivator, it was clearly the cultivation of a high-level Qi Refining Stage cultivator, this black-faced man was a cultivator of the eleventh layer of the Qi Refining Period, and the woman had reached the twelfth layer of the Qi Refining Period. Previously, the two of them didn't know what kind of strange secret techniques they used to hide their cultivation from the past, and Zhao Di didn't find the slightest flaw at all.
The black-faced man used the "Golden Thread Spear" magic weapon to sneak attack Zhao Di without success, and he was in a stalemate with Zhao Di's Xuanwu Shield for a while. The beautiful young woman did not seem to be in a hurry to join the warband, but sat cross-legged on the spot, her hands constantly changing postures, and whispering obscure incantations in her mouth.
Zhao Di saw that the Xuanwu Shield easily resisted the other party's sneak attack, his heart was slightly relaxed, and his right hand casually slapped two "Earth Armor Talismans" on his body, forming two layers of dark yellow light shields within the black light.
The black-faced man didn't seem to be in a hurry after he didn't succeed in a single blow, but he just kept urging the golden thread spear magic weapon to attack Zhao Di from all directions and angles. And the beautiful young woman finally had a new move, she gently slapped her waist, the yellow light flashed, and a boxy jade seal-like magic weapon flew out, and then the spiritual power of the whole body was frantically entered into the seal. Under the urging of the young woman's spiritual power, the volume of this jade seal magic weapon increased extremely fast, and in just a few breaths, it rose to two or three meters in length and width, and it was still growing.
Although Zhao Di had never seen this kind of seal magic weapon before, judging from the spiritual power it emitted, if he was hit by it, his Xuanwu Shield would probably be difficult to resist. He hurriedly sacrificed the refined copper ring, and while resisting the attack of the golden thread spear with the Xuanwu Shield, he commanded the copper ring that rose to more than two feet long to crash into the young woman.
He had already seen that the other party's killer weapon was on the seal magic weapon controlled by the young woman, and at this time, the young woman was sending her spiritual power into the seal magic weapon with all her might, which was a good opportunity to attack her.
It's a pity that with a muffled sound of "dang", a golden shield was horizontally in front of the young woman, resisting the fine copper ring, and it was the black-faced man who protected the young woman in time.
