Chapter 115 Invitation
"You're welcome," Zhao Di said in a sharp voice, "I heard that you have an inquiry here. Please ask an elderly person to come over. I have something to ask about."
A monk who has reached his point of cultivation, his voice and appearance can be changed at will, and even his body shape can make a small change in an instant. But this kind of concealment is easy to be seen by monks of the same level.
"Yes, seniors, please go into the VIP room for a while, and the juniors will send someone to ask for an inquiry." The shopkeeper quickly introduced Zhao Di into an independent tea room and personally presented a cup of superior spiritual tea.
There are very few monks in the foundation period in the spiritual tea shop, not to mention the monks in the middle period of foundation building, so the shopkeeper is respectful to Zhao Di.
When the rest of the tea guests saw Zhao Di's unfathomable cultivation, they did not dare to say anything more.
Zhao Di tasted the spiritual tea of the Star Sea. The taste is rich. Compared with the light Yunwu Lingming in the Kuanglu Mountains, it has a unique taste.
Before long, the shopkeeper led a white-haired old man with ten floors of gas refining into the tea room.
"The junior Huang Qianhan has been an enquirer for more than 20 years and has seen the senior!" The old man bowed and said.
"Very good, you sit down. If you can answer a few questions and satisfy me, your benefits will be indispensable!" Zhao Di casually arranged a sound insulation technique to cover him and the old man. Seeing this scene, the tea shopkeeper left the tea room with an interesting salute.
"What's the problem, senior? The younger generation must know what to say. The old man said.
"Do you know where you can buy a strong puppet in the foundation period in Fang City?" Zhao Di went straight to the point and asked.
"Seniors want to buy a puppet with strength in the foundation period?" The old man repeated with a little surprise, and then said with a smile:
"Ha ha, the seniors don't know anything about the puppet skill. In the whole sea of stars, there is only the Qianjimen family under the jurisdiction of the abbot Fairy Island. There is no other way. The Qianji door regards the advanced puppet technique above the foundation period as the secret of the door, and it is never passed on. All disciples must make a bloody oath and not pass it on to anyone outside the door. It has been like this for thousands of years! Therefore, in the whole sea of stars, only the puppets at the refining stage are sold, and the puppets in the foundation period can't be bought even if they have money!"
"Only a thousand machine doors are available! I heard that the thousand machine doors are just a small and medium-sized sect. What's the reason? Zhao Di asked puzzledly.
"The toys are lost!" The old man said softly, "It is rumored that the thousand machine door was originally a very powerful sect. There have been great figures who have been famous for more than a thousand years! However, the later disciples were extremely disappointing. Their cultivation was far less than that of their predecessors, and the strength of the sect slowly declined. I heard that most of the monks of Qianjimen spent most of their energy on the way of studying puppets. Even the spiritual stones that buy elixirs are used to buy raw materials to refine puppets, but their own cultivation can't keep up. In this way, the senior said, can't these thousands of machines gradually weaken?"
The old man doesn't seem to have a good impression of Qianjimen, and he analyzes the reason in disapprovingly.
"Well, it makes sense!" Zhao Di praised, and then asked, "It's just that I don't know. Since Qianjimen is just a small and medium-sized sect, why can he dominate this secret art for thousands of years!"
The old man did not immediately answer Zhao Di's question. After thinking for a while, he said, "The younger generation dare not make a conclusion on this question. But according to the speculation of the younger generation, the puppetry is not a special way. Rumor has it that the raw materials needed to make puppets at the level of the foundation period are even more than the best magic weapons! The refining cost of each base-building puppet is far above that of a best magic weapon. In this way, it is difficult to play too much role and the price is high, so gradually no one cares about it. Only the monks of Qianjimen still regard this as a treasure inherited by the sect.
"So that's it! So, except for the thousand machine doors, you can't buy a puppet with the strength of the foundation period?" Zhao Di still asked with a glimmer of hope.
"I'm afraid that's the case." The old man said, and then said, "With the cultivation of the predecessors, it doesn't make much sense to want this puppet in the foundation period. It's better to add two useful best magic weapons. After all, the flexibility of the puppet is far less than that of using magic weapons, not to mention that the puppet also has to constantly consume spiritual stones. If the predecessors need puppets to take care of the home and deliver tea and water, they can spend hundreds of spiritual stones, and it is enough to buy some high-level puppets in the gas refining period.
"I know!" Zhao Di then asked a few more questions. After getting a satisfactory answer, he gave the old man a few spiritual stones and left the tea room.
Unexpectedly, he couldn't get the puppet in the foundation period, so Zhao Di's plan had to be temporarily terminated.
"It seems that it is necessary to go to this thousand gate in the future!" Zhao Di muttered in his heart.
Since you can't buy the base-building period puppets, let's buy some better gas refining period puppets. Zhao Di thought so.
Zhao Di continued to stay in the market for more than half a day and bought a lot of items, most of which were auxiliary materials for alchemists. In addition, two or three sets of powerful magic arrays were added.
He will be closed for a long time when he goes back. He needs some powerful magic arrays to guard the cave. He originally had a lot of magic arrays, but most of them have been destroyed.
In addition, he finally bought a few second-level dragon demon elixirs. When he went back, he could refine two or three primary dragon elixirs. After upgrading with a small tripod, I believe that there is a great opportunity to let his ice wind snake advance to the second-level spirit beast.
If it hadn't been for the inner elixir of the dragon monster, which is more than twice as expensive as the ordinary demon elixir, he would definitely have to buy some more.
Zhao Di returned to Xixing Island with two full storage bags.
As usual, after going around the city, he went to the distant peak and delivered a large number of spiritual stones, and then did not stay here much, but went straight to Luojia Island, his own island.
As soon as he flew close to the Luojia Mountains, Zhao Di learned through the magic plate in his hand that someone in the six rounds of peerless array seemed to be waiting for him motionless.
After Zhao Di approached a little, he sensed the other party's cultivation during the refining period, and he was more familiar with it. So he slowly came to this person.
On a small hill, a girl in a green dress sat quietly cross-legged.
Zhao Di also recognized at a glance that this girl was the little Ying girl who had received him in Xuanyi Pavilion. It's just that at this time, she is already in the twelfth floor of the gas refining period.
The little girl's appearance has not changed at all from 20 years ago. Her facial features are exquisite, and there is still a trace of childishness between her eyebrows. With her cultivation during the refining period, even if she has practiced some skills that have the effect of nourishing her face, she can never change for 20 years. It seems that the original Zhuyan Dan was probably taken by this woman.
"Xu Ying, junior, see your predecessor!" When the girl saw Zhao Di, she saluted happily.
"Are you waiting for me here? Don't you know that I don't like someone to disturb my cave!" Zhao Di said unhappily.
"The elder master calmed his anger, and Xiaoying also had to fall in love. It was my young lady who told Xiaoying to do this. For the specific reason, the seniors will know after reading the content of this jade slip. Seeing Zhao Di's face, the girl explained hurriedly. After saying that, she slowly flew to Zhao Di.
Zhao Di opened his right hand and grabbed it in the air, and a purple gas wrapped in Yu Jian fell into his hand quickly.
"There is nothing wrong with it." Zhao Di thought that he used mixed yuan to detect that there were no forbidden traps attached to the jade slip.
So he separated part of his consciousness, immersed it in the jade slip, and slowly read the content.
There is not much content in Yujian. Zhao Di finished reading it in a moment, showing a trace of surprise and saying, "What the cloud fairy said is true?"
The girl said with a smile, "Senior, don't worry, of course it's true! For this matter, the young lady asked Xiaoying to wait here for her predecessors for several years! If the seniors still don't return within two years, I'm afraid they will miss the opportunity!"
"In this way, it's really lucky for you!" Zhao Di said with a smile. He took out two demon elixirs, threw them to the girl, and said, "These two demon elixirs should be regarded as your hard work in the past few years!" If you go back, please tell Yun Fairy that you will promise this matter, and we will meet here in two years.
"Third-level demon elixir! Thank you for your reward!" The girl took the elixir and thanked her with overjoy. Then the woman drove the flying magic weapon and left Luojia Island.
Zhao Di looked at the girl who was far away, showing a thoughtful look. After a while, he put several magic arrays in the six-vein spirits array, and then entered the cave.
