Suddenly, half a year passed, Zhang Di pretended to be a partner in the gym during the day, and practiced his fists and feet in the martial arts training field at night.

As for Zhang Di's fist and foot skills, he has made great progress, almost surpassing Shi Jian, and can deal with the siege of five or six puppets at the same time, but in order to hide his strength, he only maintains a five-five victory or defeat with Shi Jian on weekdays.

The planting of Lingtian also completed the handover of the Linggu Hall task, and more than 200 catties of Linggu were played in three points, which was greatly appreciated by the master of the Golden Hall, and Zhang Di was promoted to a second-grade Lingnong, and sent people to reclaim two more fields around the original Lingtian, reaching the size of one acre, and assigned them to Zhang Di to take care of.

In this way, the quality of the spiritual field here is not the lowest white spiritual field in the records of the Linggu Hall, but has become a blue spiritual field, and Zhang Di's identity has also risen, as if he has become the core disciple of the outer gate, if he can complete the planting test of one acre of spiritual field, he will naturally be able to enter the inner hall of the Linggu smoothly in the coming year.

So the Golden Hall Master asked Zhang Di if he was willing to take on more responsibilities of the Linggu Outer Hall, such as promoting his drip irrigation technology to other Lingnong.

Zhang Di didn't want to be distracted by mundane things, so he naturally excused himself by saying that he was dedicated to studying farming skills and was unwilling to intervene in these things, so he politely refused the appointment of the Golden Hall Master. So he asked for a formation plate from the Golden Hall Master, and laid out a shielding formation, covering one acre of spiritual land tightly. In addition, two new spirit gathering array disks were carved and buried in the spiritual field, ready to continue to take the method of two crops in half a year, and hit the yield of 600 catties per mu.

As for those blood-colored spirit valleys and pearl yellow second-grade spirit valleys, they have also harvested a lot of seeds, all of which he has left for this sowing, ready to do a big job, if everything goes well, he will not be worried about the spirit valley he cultivates in the next two years.

Everything is going according to plan, and it is only a little more than a year before Hao Ren's return.

On the side of the Refining Hall, they also became nervous, in order to deal with the immortal and demon war that might happen at any time, this group of body refiners was to be sent to the back mountain for a three-month trial.

Each refiner had to try their best to kill the demon beasts, try to survive, and wait until the three-month period expired, and the ranking was measured by the value of the demon beast materials harvested by each refiner. The top thirty body refiners will be recruited into the refining hall and rewarded with a number of elixirs and spirit valleys that are beneficial to cultivation.

For example, the first place is 50 catties of second-grade Linggu Baozhu Yellow, ten high-grade blood nourishing pills, and 300 spirit stones, and the second place is 30 catties of second-grade Linggu, five high-grade blood nourishing pills, and 200 spirit stones......

Such a high reward naturally caused all the outer sect refiners to go crazy, and everyone knew in their hearts that in the shadow of the immortal and demon war, if they wanted to save their lives, they could only desperately improve their own strength, and the higher the strength, the greater the cost of dealing with the crisis;

If you still stay in the Outer Hall of Refining Body, the possibility of being used as cannon fodder is very high!

Therefore, driven by the dual interests and crises, all the body refiners fought bravely and signed up to participate in this trial, and even the disciples of the other Linggu Hall and the Refining Hall were also attracted a lot, and the number of applicants reached thousands for a while.

Zhang Di naturally didn't have any thoughts about this trial, after half a year of basic training, he was confident that his strength had been greatly improved, coupled with the hole cards of thorns in his palm, if he didn't dare to say that he was in the front, he could at least enter the top 30.

Besides, he can't look down on those rewards, and he has successfully tried to plant the second-grade Linggu Treasure Pearl; after the blood-nourishing pill is engraved on the Gathering Spirit Array, the medicinal effect is also greatly improved; he is not short of spirit stones, not to mention that he can carve out a spirit stone every day, that is, after the harvest of this batch of Spirit Valley, 600 catties can't be eaten, and it can be taken out and sold in the market.

He didn't want to expose his strength, at least until he successfully resolved Hao Ren's crisis.

Therefore, he did not plan to earn a ranking in this trial, but he was very excited about the opportunity to enter the back mountain for three months. Because the foundation of his martial arts has been basically laid after half a year of hard training, but in the face of the test of life and death, he still lacks a certain amount of experience.

So he considered signing up as well, entering the back mountain to improve his actual combat experience by killing demon beasts, and sharpening his mind to make final preparations for facing Hao Ren's big battle in the future.

For this reason, he deliberately went to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to read the relevant books, and learned that the back mountain is divided into the outer and inner circles, and the outer areas cover an area of hundreds of miles, of which the strength of demon beasts is mostly in the first and second levels, which is equivalent to one to three level refiners, and the inner circle covers an area of only two hundred miles, but it is entrenched in some third, fourth, and even fifth-level demon beasts.

The third- and fourth-level demon beasts are equivalent to the fourth- and fifth-level body refiners, while the fifth-level demon beasts are equivalent to the sixth and seventh level body refiners, which can be said to be quite dangerous.

The scope of this trial is in the outer circle, and the refiners are strictly not allowed to enter the inner circle, but Zhang Di's plan is to secretly enter the inner circle after half a month of training in the outer circle, if he can survive the threat of the third or fourth level demon beasts, he thinks he has the confidence to face Hao Ren.

In addition, he also found that if a body practitioner wants to maximize his potential, in addition to cultivating some unique exercises, there is an extremely harsh and practical method, which is to learn killing techniques!

He carefully flipped through the murderous techniques collected in the Scripture Pavilion, and learned through the clues that there was also a set of sealed killing techniques in the Refining Hall, which was originally placed in the Scripture Pavilion for others to read, but then somehow it was put away and sealed.

These books on killing techniques all vaguely mention that the book is extremely powerful, but the cultivation is extremely harsh and difficult, and the existing killing techniques are just simplified versions of that book.

This aroused Zhang Di's great interest, and he said that he had to try to get that set of killing techniques, but he was limited to the identity of a man, and it was difficult for him to enter the cabinet of the Refining Hall, and only the head of the Fang sect had this convenience, so Zhang Di thought about whether he could use Shi Jian to try to get this set of mysterious killing techniques.

This night, the two came to the martial arts training ground as promised, Shi Jian was unusual, with a gloomy face, he did not practice with Zhang Di, and fought with the puppet man in table tennis.

Zhang Di's heart moved, and when he saw what was on his mind, he stepped forward and said to him, "Senior Brother Shi, I don't know why I'm bored?"

Shi Jian glanced at him, and said with a gloomy face: "This is my business, please Senior Brother Huang go away!"

Zhang Di touched his chin, smiled slightly, and said, "I have also heard about Senior Brother Shi, but it was because of that Hao Mei's pursuit of Fang Mei? Could it be that Sect Leader Fang was forced by Hao Hao's obscenity to finally make a compromise and forbid Fang Mei to associate with Senior Brother Shi?"

"What are you talking about!" This is the scar in Shi Jian's heart, how can he not be angry when he is suddenly punctured, he immediately widened his eyes, stretched out his big hand and took it to his chest.

Zhang Di didn't parry, and only said one sentence, which made Shi Jian's palm stop in front of his chest.

"I said, why don't you kill that Hao Yu, wouldn't it be done once and for all?"

When Shi Jian heard this, he stayed on the spot, stared at Zhang Di up and down with his eyes, as if he didn't know him, and said after a long time: "You...... Who are you, how dare you...... How dare you say this? Do you know that Hao Yi is the son of an immortal master, and even the sect leader of that party would not dare to anger him?"

Zhang Di felt that the time had come, after half a year of contact, the estrangement between Shi Jian in his heart had gradually been eliminated, and it was time to confess his identity to him and pull him to deal with Hao Ren together.

So he slowly took off the disguised hood, tore off the big plaster on his face, and gently wiped off the pot ash on his face with his sleeve, turned his face to look at Shi Jian, and said with a smile: "Shi Jian, who do you see me?"

As soon as Shi Jian saw his face clearly, it was as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body jumped up from the ground and shouted: "Zhang Di! It's you!"
