After Zhao Di entered the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Period, he could be regarded as meeting the minimum conditions for cultivating mid-level spells in the Qi Refining Period. Taking advantage of the spare time of talisman making, Zhao Di began to practice several mid-level spells.

According to his original plan, it would be best to master the spell of the Golden Shield and then start trying to make the "Golden Shield Talisman". Because the talisman of the defensive surname is generally better than the offensive surname, the price is often slightly higher. For example, the mid-level "Golden Shield Talisman" can be sold for about six or seven spirit stones, while the "Fire Snake Talisman" that is also a mid-level talisman can only be sold for five spirit stones.

But after he started to learn the middle-level spell, he found that the requirements for spiritual power of the middle-level spell were not a little higher than that of the low-level spell, and it was a qualitative leap. He seemed to be able to learn low-level spells at the fourth level of the Qi refining period, but when he was at the fifth level of the Qi refining period, after learning the "Golden Shield Technique", he found that his spiritual power was not enough at all, and it was difficult to practice, and he almost couldn't see the possibility of success.

He tried several other mid-level spells, and found that except for the "Arrow Rain Technique", which had the lowest requirements for spiritual power, it was slightly possible to learn, other spells were not at all what he could master at this stage. According to his estimate, those mid-level spells would not be able to be used proficiently until he had reached the sixth or even seventh layer of the Qi Refining Stage after his cultivation.

However, for Zhao Di, practicing the "Arrow Rain Technique" is really a bit of a chicken thing. Although the Arrow Rain Technique is also a mid-level attack spell in the Qi Refining Period, its power is a little weaker than that of the "Fire Snake Technique" and "Earth Thorn Technique", which are also mid-level spells. Therefore, although the "Arrow Rain Talisman" that seals this spell is also a mid-level talisman, it is difficult to sell, and the price is slightly lower than that of the "Fire Serpent Talisman".

The rune paper used for the middle-level rune is completely different from the low-level rune paper, and there are higher requirements for the year of the spirit grass used to make the rune paper, so the price is also much more expensive. A dozen mid-level blank rune papers, the price is about ten low-level spirit stones. In addition, the success rate of refining mid-level talismans is lower, and the cost of refining "Arrow Rain Talismans" will be much higher. If you refine the arrow rain talisman, there is a chance that you will either not be able to sell it, or you will lose a little bit.

As a result, Zhao Di's plan to refine a mid-level talisman in the Qi refining period was temporarily put on hold.

It was said that at the lively gathering at the beginning of the month, Zhao Di still set up a stall with Liu Yingying, but he obviously felt that the other party's mood was heavy and full of worries.

It stands to reason that Liu Yingying has been very lucky this month, and she has successfully refined two furnaces of elixir one after another. Zhao deduced that it might have something to do with her recent return home.

Under Zhao Di's side knock, Liu Yingying finally confided the unhappiness in her heart.

It turned out that when she returned home last time, she found that there was a monk in his forties who was in the foundation building period, surnamed Lu Mingqiao. This powerful senior was a steward of the Immortal Cultivation Sect Lihuo Sect, which the Liu family relied on. And he came to the Liu family this time, nominally for alchemy, he took out a large number of spirit grass elixirs and other raw materials and handed them to the head of the Liu family, that is, Liu Yingying's father, and asked him to help refine a few furnaces of Qingling pills. Father Liu was overjoyed and immediately agreed. For an alchemist, the most important thing is to have a large number of raw materials that can be refined, so as to accumulate rich experience, gradually improve the success rate of refining, and finally reach an extremely high level and become a hot alchemy master.

Liu Yingying helped her father to refine the pill together for dozens of days, and successfully refined a few furnaces of Qingling Pills, and after handing them over to the Lihuo Sect, she also received a generous honorarium. Originally, this was a great good thing, and the whole Liu family was happy for many days, thinking that it was finally time to operate. However, Liu Yingying found that Lu Qiao, the monk in charge of this matter, was always staring at her intentionally or unintentionally, and there was a bit of confusion in his eyes, which frightened Liu Yingying so much that she didn't dare to stay at home for a long time, so she left home and returned to Liuyunfang City after making an excuse.

But just yesterday, Liu Yingying received a message from her father. The letter said that the monk in the foundation building period had officially proposed to Liu's father and wanted to take Liu Yingying as a concubine. Although Liu's father was reluctant in his heart, he didn't dare to refuse in person, and only said that he wanted to ask for his daughter's meaning. Father Liu also said that he inquired about the personality of this monk in the foundation building period in many ways, and sure enough, this person was a notorious womanizer from the Fire Sect, relying on his own cultivation to be quite high, and always hit the idea of some beautiful low-level female monks, even mortal women, and it is said that he married five or six concubines. Moreover, this man is narrow-minded and very vindictive, and none of the friars who have rejected him to his face or even verbally humiliated him will end well. Either he was murdered, or he disappeared from the immortal cultivation world for no reason.

This person is also smart, and he has never attacked those female cultivators with powerful backgrounds, so he has never really offended the characters he can't afford to provoke, so he is still alive and well. From the female cultivators of the Fire Sect who do not have a prominent identity background, but have a little bit of appearance, they are usually how far away they hide from this uncle in the foundation building period.

This time, Liu Yingying was favored by her, which was undoubtedly a huge disaster for the Liu family.

When Zhao Di heard this, he was also indignant in his heart.

He said angrily: "Isn't there a royal law in the realm of cultivating immortals! Let such scum act arbitrarily!"

Liu Yingying smiled bitterly and said coldly: "Wang Fa! Immortal cultivators were originally the weak and the strong, and they used their strength to speak. Only if your cultivation is high enough and your mana is strong enough, what you say will have weight, and what you say is the king's law! Cultivating immortals was originally acting against the sky, and there have been a few people who have been able to ascend to the Tao throughout the ages. Isn't it just that so many immortal cultivators are desperately trying to improve their cultivation regardless of the hardships and dangers, just so that one day they can achieve monstrous mana and trample all sentient beings under their feet! For those high-level cultivators, low-level cultivators in the Qi refining period like us, like mortals, are just ants in their eyes, and how can they take care of our life and death. ”

The truth in Liu Yingying's words, how could Zhao Di not understand, in the face of the reality that the immortal cultivation world is a little more cruel than the world, they are low-level cultivators with meager strength, and there is no possibility of resisting at all. He said, "Then what are you going to do? Is there really only one way to agree? Why don't you go away with your family, can't you afford to hide if you can't be provoked?"

"I don't know what to do, the anger of the foundation building period cultivator is not something that a small immortal cultivator like us can resist at all. Unless I marry someone immediately, I guess the other party will not force me to marry a married nun. The girl said softly, she suddenly turned her head, opened two big eyes, looked at Zhao Di without blinking, and after a while, she sighed again, turned her head and continued to look ahead, as if talking to herself: " In fact, it's not that much, if a little monk like us can get in touch with a monk in the foundation building period, maybe there will be an opportunity to further his cultivation, and this person is in charge of refining the basic pill in the sect in the Lihuo Sect, presumably in the future, my father will also be able to get a lot of benefits from this marriage, and go further in the realm of alchemy. My younger brothers and sisters may still have the opportunity to enter the Leaving Fire Sect to practice......"

Zhao Di was also speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

The two were silent for a long time, until it was getting late, and they returned to their respective pavilions.

Zhao Di did not rest immediately, but felt irritable and needed to be quiet.

He has a habit of patiently making a few talismans when his mood is fluctuating, which can often have the effect of concentrating and calming the mind.

However, this time it had no effect, Zhao Di made more than a dozen Vajra talismans in a row, all of which failed, and his mood became even more chaotic.

In his previous life, Zhao Di was already a hot-blooded young man who understood the love between men and women, and after being reincarnated as Wugen, I don't know if it was because his body became a child, or because he practiced immortal law, paid attention to peace of mind and tranquility, and had a pure heart and few desires, he always pressed the love of men and women in the bottom of his heart, and he didn't care too much.

In the past three years with a big beauty like Liu Yingying, Zhao Di feels that the other party is cute and self-reliant and strong, which is the type he admires very much, especially her love and filial piety to her family, which is extremely rare among immortal cultivators. If he doesn't have a trace of male and female affection for Liu Yingying, he is purely self-deception. But in order to pursue the Immortal Dao, he always suppressed the ripples in his heart intentionally or unintentionally. And after hearing the news that Liu Yingying was proposed by the monk in the foundation building period, this ripple continued to ripple, which made him upset.

At the same time, the feeling of being powerless and only being slaughtered by others also made him more deeply appreciate the cruelty and helplessness of the immortal cultivation world.

He drew another vajra talisman, and as soon as he put down his pen, the spiritual light on the talisman paper flickered brightly and weakly, and after a while, it spontaneously combusted and turned into ashes. Failed again.

Zhao Di slammed the talisman pen, and swept his right hand the table, and suddenly the rune paper dansha fell to the ground......
