Chapter 233: The Battle of the Beast Tide (9)
"Why did this man die last night?"
Zhao Di was shocked. He found Li Qing's detachment, but he couldn't find this person everywhere, and when he asked the steward in the middle of the Jiedan about this person, he got an answer that surprised him.
Whether this person's appearance in the Sea of Stars was directly related to the matter of Jian Yun and his wife, he had no way of knowing.
With such a mystery, Zhao Di returned to the location of the seventeenth detachment.
Zhang Beichen, Qiu Yinong, and Weizi Mang had already sat or stood on the city wall, and their eyes looking at Zhao Di at this time were very complicated, with suspicion, solemnity, and a trace of respect, but they did not contain any contempt.
Zhao Di seemed to be smiling instead of smiling, sitting quietly on the city wall.
Not only the people of the seventeenth detachment, but even the other Jiedan monks more than ten miles away next to them also cast concerned glances at Zhao Di from a distance from time to time.
In the seventeenth detachment, dozens of cultivators in the foundation building period and the qi refining stage were also well-informed and heard some rumors, and secretly cast strange glances at Zhao Di.
It was evening, and a warm wind with a slightly fishy smell was blowing across the city walls, and a neat and powerful slogan was heard in the distance, which meant that many mortals were repairing the city walls, or building giant crossbows and catapults, and on the city walls, lay extremely tired mortals, who were seizing this precious time and enjoying the peace brought by sleep.
Occasionally, one or two seabirds flew by, making a chirping sound of "Ya Ya Quack", which would make some light-sleeping mortals open one or both eyes slightly, and after a faint sweep, they continued to sleep.
Zhao Di silently looked at the sun that was about to set in the west, blocked by the high mountains, only a small arc of red remained, shining the surrounding clouds crimson, and there were even colorful clouds connecting the sky, which were hidden in the vague mountain shadows.
After a while, the sun was completely blocked by the mountains, leaving only the red glow on the horizon, and after a while, the red glow was no longer visible, and the sky gradually darkened, and at the same time, there was already a crescent moon hanging in the eastern sky, shining on the sea not far away.
Zhao Di sighed lightly, in a while, the true horror of the beast tide would be revealed one by one, and the fate of many mortals and low-level cultivators on Island One was about to be decided.
Looking at these mortals who were powerless to manipulate their own fate, and they could only play a limited role with their best efforts, Zhao Di couldn't help but feel something in his heart. If the monks of the Yudan period who are guarding this area of them are not strong, these people will also be doomed. It can be said that their fate is in the hands of high-ranking monks.
If he hadn't stepped into the realm of cultivating immortals, he would have been afraid that it would have been the same. Now that he has the opportunity to cultivate immortals against the sky, he must firmly control his destiny in his own hands
Zhao Di's expression suddenly moved, and he noticed that the Weizi Mantra had actually left his location and was slowly flying towards him.
Weizi stopped dozens of zhang away from Zhao Di, gave Zhao Di a slight salute, and said in his signature dry and cold voice: "Zhao Daoyou, whether you can make a deal with Daoyou is definitely the best of both worlds, and you and I will both benefit a lot."
Zhao Di was slightly stunned, and said noncommittally: "Let's hear it."
Seeing that Zhao Di didn't directly refuse, the Weizi mantra came to his senses, and his dry and cold voice was also slightly excited: "Hehe, I want to use all the secret techniques related to corpse refining and corpse control that I have collected for hundreds of years in exchange for that Phantom Moon Blade." This Phantom Moon Blade has been recognized, and the damage is not light, and the Daoist friend is carrying a heavy treasure, so this Phantom Moon Blade is useless at all. And since the Phantom Moon Blade is in the hands of Daoyou, most of the two illusory invisible walking corpses are also the same, wouldn't Daoyou want to freely control the two walking corpses to bring greater help to Daoyou?"
"Hmph, Your Excellency's good idea, just a few exercises, and I also want to exchange for a famous treasure like the Phantom Moon Blade," Zhao Di replied coldly, but his heart was also quite moved.
"Don't misunderstand, the exercises under the sect are not ordinary corpse refining and corpse control techniques, many of them are derived from classical books, and they are mysterious and abnormal, even if they are refined into their own stand-in clones, it is possible. Moreover, there are several secret techniques for breath and breath exchange, which can not only keep the corpse qi from being revealed, but also human monks can use it to cover up and conceal their breath without being discovered at all, which is very practical," Weizi Mantra hurriedly explained.
"Oh? It sounds a little interesting, but how does Zhao know if what your Excellency said is true or false" Zhao Di showed a hint of emotion.
A stiff smile squeezed out of Weiziman's death-like face: "Hehe, this is easy to do, you can hand over half of the jade slip to Daoyou first, and Daoyou only needs to sweep it roughly, and you will naturally be able to distinguish the real from the fake." After speaking, he took out four or five jade slips, flicked them lightly, and the latter all floated towards Zhao Di.
Zhao Di's divine sense swept inside and outside the jade slip, and after not noticing the abnormality, he unceremoniously reached out and grabbed it in the air, and a purple qi flashed, and immediately ingested all the jade slips more than ten zhang away into his hand.
Immediately after, Zhao Di picked up a piece of jade slip, immersed a wisp of divine consciousness in it, and roughly read the contents.
Soon, he put down this jade slip and replaced it with another one.
Not long after, he swept all the jade slips with his divine sense, and then said: "It does look a little interesting, if the remaining jade slips record the secret techniques of the exercises are not inferior, Zhao can consider one or two." ”
Weizi was overjoyed and said, "It's definitely only on these few." As long as the Daoist friend hands over the Phantom Moon Blade to the next one, the remaining jade slips will be handed over to the Taoist friend at the same time. With the prestige of Taoist friends, I naturally don't dare to make deceptive moves."
"Hmm, the famous Phantom Moon Blade, only exchange some jade slips, Zhao obviously still suffers a lot," Zhao Di replied with a frown.
"This, I am also willing to sell a sum of spirit stones, and the quantity is satisfactory to Daoyou. "After all, the Phantom Moon Blade is an illusory and invisible magic weapon for fame, and the quality is extremely high, and if you have the opportunity to get this treasure, you are willing to take out most of your net worth.
"There is no need for spirit stones, Zhao is particularly interested in the natal feathers of high-level demon birds, so let's do it, as long as you help Zhao get ten more kinds of fifth-level demon birds, you can reach this deal If there are many types, Zhao is also willing to subsidize some spirit stones" Zhao Di casually put a few jade slips into his arms and said with a smile at the other party.
Weizi was stunned for a moment, the other party's move was a little overbearing, but he also sincerely wanted to make this deal, so he did not hesitate to accept it, and then went around to exchange for demon birds and feathers.
In normal times, this kind of thing is extremely difficult to change, but last night, there were a lot of fifth-level demon birds patronized here, and they were all killed by various monks in the Dan period, so after a short time, the Weizi spell returned with a full load, bringing back a lot of demon birds with different colors.
Because he was afraid that Zhao Di would have excuses such as bad quality and insufficient quantity, Weizi Mantra also deliberately got a few more.
Zhao Di saw all kinds of colorful feathers in the jade box in front of the other party, nodded very satisfied, and then put the Phantom Moon Blade in the jade box and slowly flew towards the other party.
At the same time, Weizi Mantra also tacitly put the jade slip into the jade box containing Ling Yu and flew gently towards Zhao Di.
The two got each other's jade boxes at the same time, and then immediately checked them.
The Misty Moon Blade only glanced at the Phantom Moon Blade to confirm that it was correct, and then immediately put it into the storage bracelet.
Zhao Di put away the jade box containing Ling Yu and immersed part of his divine consciousness into the jade slips. His expression remained the same, but his heart was doubtful, surprised, excited, and finally cautious.
It didn't take long for Zhao Di to sweep through all the jade slips, and then said to Weizi Mantra: "Your Excellency's words are true, this deal is considered to have been concluded"
"Hehe, thank you Daoyou!" Wei Zifu chuckled, bowed his hand to Zhao Dixiao, and returned to his position.
Weizi Mantra was in a good mood, and at a very low cost, he got the first person under the Yuan Infant to illustrate the invisible natal magic weapon, although this treasure had some spiritual power loss, and it was recognized as the master. But as long as he let his Shen Corpse be roasted with corpse flames for a period of time, he can gradually recover, and there is absolutely no problem in exerting half of the power of this treasure. And in the name of this treasure, I believe that even half of the power is enough to become a big killer weapon for him
Zhang Beichen and the others also saw from a distance that Weizi Mantra and Zhao Di seemed to be trading, but because the two had been whispering in secret, they didn't know, let alone stepped forward to ask anything.
Zhao Di's heart was also not very calm, those corpse control techniques and corpse alchemy techniques, although there were several very mysterious and powerful, but they were not what he was most interested in. Instead, there is a very clever nameless breathing technique, which makes him like a treasure.
With this kind of breathing technique, as long as the cultivator is not much higher than himself or the divine sense is too strong, he will not be able to detect his life breath by relying on his divine sense. With his own concealment technique, he can simply disappear seamlessly into the divine sense of a monk of the same level, or even a higher order.
Zhao Di felt that this nameless breathing technique and the hidden spirit technique obtained from an ancient jade slip seemed to be quite similar, and the functions of the two also complemented each other, which was really a perfect match.
If you learn this secret technique, when the Tian Clan's Three Absolute comes to trouble you, you can use it together with the Hidden Spirit Technique, and then hide in a hidden place, so that these three people have no way to find it, and it is also a good way to escape.
Zhao Di sat on the city wall, thinking about how to skillfully use these secret techniques, when a horn sounded.
"Toot ~!"
Perhaps for many of the people on the walls, this will be the last time they will hear the sound of the trumpet.
The drums of war were beating, the torches were lit, the moonstones were shining, the mortals got up one after another, and quickly returned to their positions, the monks performed their duties, and the atmosphere on the city walls gradually became tense and condensed.
"Brother Zhao, show your strength, let's have a big fight" Zhang Beichen, the big man, floated in the air, and suddenly shouted to Zhao Di from afar.
