After Li Dai left, she specifically inquired about the time, and found out that she had spent so much time in the world of books, and it was almost half a year outside. Now the five-year period before she came to Sky Island City was almost up. , there are only a month or two left. I remember that Shen Xiaoyun asked her to come back on time and not to miss the opening of the Holy Heaven Secret Realm five years later. Now there is only a month or two left, and I don’t know if it’s still too late.
There is nothing you can do if you miss it. The location where the Holy Sky Secret Realm appears is deep inside the Western Plains. It is not Qiong Mountain where the mercenary ranking competition was held. Qiong Mountain is just a high mountain on the border of the Western Plains. There is still a big difference deep in the Western Plains.
Moreover, almost all the bases of the Cangyun Continental Mercenary Group are located in the Western Plains, where the centralized center of the Loose Cultivators Alliance is also located.
In addition, there are many demon caves such as the Dark Demon Abyss in the deepest part of the Western Plains. It is a relatively flat place with quite complicated humanities.
It can be said that there is everything on the Western Plains, including casual cultivators, mercenaries, demons, aristocratic families, etc.
The Shen family where Shen Xiaoyun belongs is a branch of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce in the West Plains. The strength of the expatriate family may not be much in Kongdao City, but outside it is still quite impressive.
Li Dai packed up everything and sorted out the results of five years of experience in Sky Island City. She sold what should be sold and exchanged it for spiritual stones. She also spent some of the billions of high-grade spiritual stones she got from Jingchiyang. But there is still a lot left.
Now, Xiaofeng has gradually recovered her spirituality, and she can even move and respond when she occasionally talks to it. This is what Li Dai considers to be her biggest gain.
In addition, there has been some progress in the research on Ao Qiyong's body with ten thousand leaks. However, how to make up for the leakage of the spiritual energy sucked into the body and let it form a circulation in the Dantian? What kind of materials are needed? Li Dai has not yet found the material that can be linked to Dantian, and has no clue, so Ao Qiyong's body of ten thousand leaks has not yet been completely solved.
However, Li Dai believed that once that material was found, based on the principles she thought, she would be able to change his body with all leaks into a body with no leaks.
As for the mining pig with a weak presence in the new space, it has been sleeping, absorbing spiritual energy and spitting out spiritual stones. Now that the space is replenished by the crushing of the black circle's body, the space has been further improved, the spiritual energy has become richer, and the mining pig can also produce spiritual stones. Faster.
The production rate of top-quality spiritual stones is much higher than before.
In addition to the mining pigs that love to sleep for many years, the black coal briquettes that Li Dai conquered are the spirits of the land of Jingyin. Because Li Dai didn't like it, she placed it in a place far away in space. The black coal briquettes are also the spirits of Jingyin. The Earth Spirit was originally the place where the man-made underworld of Nether City brought in the living beings. It was a hurdle on the road to the underworld. Now it is placed millions of miles away in space to facilitate the formation of a new Yin Qi. It is a very heavy place. It will be a good place to plant some Yin spiritual plants in the future.
During the five years in Sky Island City, Li Dai rarely paid attention to the black coal briquettes. Now that she paid attention, she found that it was leisurely on its own territory. Li Dai withdrew her spiritual consciousness to visit the new space world. Nothing was said.
The space is now managed by Xiao Lei Gu, and with the help of Lei Xiaoling, Lei Xiaoling and Xiao Lei Gu have formed a friendship behind each other. The two of them go in and out together like best friends. Wherever Xiao Lei Gu goes, Lei Xiaoling follows No, it's interesting.
In this way, Lei Xiaoling is not very clingy to her, which is good.
In addition to some things she obtained, Li Dai's understanding of time and space has made certain breakthroughs. The meaning of time has reached the late stage of Dacheng, the meaning of space has reached the late stage of Zhongcheng, and her killing sword intention has even reached the Great Perfection. I also newly understood several sets of killing moves in "Flying Light", and my combat effectiveness has been greatly improved.
The Blood Sea Exhaustion, Misty Transfer, Fallen Disillusionment, and Reincarnation Sword are all so powerful. When she becomes more proficient in using them in the future, the power will only be greater. She is looking forward to it.
Overall, Li Dai gained a lot during the five years he came to Sky Island City to practice. Although there was no clear progress in his cultivation, his solid foundation and combat effectiveness were greatly improved.
Li Dai thought about it as she walked, making sure that there was nothing left unfinished. She was about to leave with her gold medal sign in hand, but she didn't expect the jade talisman in the storage ring to vibrate.
Li Dai took it out and saw that it belonged to Shen Long and Jing Chiyang.
Thinking that she was leaving and had not said goodbye to these two people alone, Li Dai went directly to the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce Center Building where Shen Long invited her without much hesitation.
She was very fast, and it didn't take long for her to reach her destination and see the two of them.
Seeing Jing Chiyang, Li Dai remembered that she had indeed missed one thing, which was about Jing Chiyang's spatial spiritual root. If he didn't want it, she could absorb it into his original tree.
But with Shen Long here, it seemed difficult to ask.
If you let them know that they can dissolve other people's spiritual roots, and can turn the five elements' useless spiritual roots into single spiritual roots, and those with three or four spiritual roots can become single spiritual root geniuses, wouldn't it be too contrary to human nature? That's it. If you are great enough for others, no one will envy you, only for people to admire you. If you are great for others and it exceeds their tolerance, it will make people afraid or feel scared. Li Dai doesn't want to become that person who makes people fear. So forget it.
Therefore, Li Dai glanced at Jing Chiyang with regret and then withdrew her gaze.
Compared to Li Dai's light-hearted attitude, Jing Chiyang was obviously much more concerned. In the world of thunder, he found that he had an extra space spiritual root, and he couldn't control it without the corresponding skills. There is a danger of being pulled into an unknown space at any time. Even with Lei Daling by his side, it doesn't give him much sense of security. And Li Dai, the only one who makes him feel safe, is leaving again. He has to come and see her off. He had not forgotten that the ancient Cang Luan demon had protected Li Dai three times in the Thunder World, and the teleportation mark was still on the back of her hand.
Such a big boss would also interact with Li Dai. Jing Chiyang also admired Li Dai's character, and his Lei Daling always clamored to get close to Lei Xiaoling, so no matter what aspect he considered, Jing Chiyang would I felt that I should be more proactive in becoming friends with Li Dai. I learned from the people in the wealth-seeking team that she was leaving, so I had to see her off alone to show that I valued her.
So this appointment came.
Shen Long wanted to see Li Dai because he had received some news and wanted to tell Li Dai. Therefore, the two of them met together and met together, which led to the current incident.
To be honest, Jing Chiyang, Yu Zhenghao, Shen Long, and Li Dai were recommended by Shen Xiaoyun and qualified to enter Kongdao City, but she was not familiar with Shen Long and Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, and Jing Chiyang was not there yet. Familiar, after all, she and Jing Chiyang spent a lot of time in the Thunder World and experienced a lot together.
She was about to leave at this time, and Li Dai didn't think that Shen Long would come alone to see her off, so he must have something important to do with her, so Li Dai didn't mince words, sat down and drank a sip of spiritual tea, and asked directly.
"Fellow Daoist Li is indeed smart. He indeed has something to tell you."
"Last night, our Tianlong Chamber of Commerce suddenly received news from the Shen family branch in Xiping Plain. It was a message from a person named Shen Xiaoyun. He asked you if you had left Kongdao City. The Holy Sky Secret Realm was about to be opened. What's the matter? There are one month and twenty days, so you must not miss the opening of this secret realm."
"He contacted you?" Li Dai asked in surprise.
Shen Long nodded, "Yes, if I remember correctly, Fellow Daoist Li entered Kongdao City with our Shen family token. It must have been given to you by Shen Xiaoyun, but I told him that you haven't left yet and left Kongdao City." From the island city to the Western Plains, it takes more than half a year for the monks to overcome the tribulation at the fastest, so under normal circumstances you cannot catch up with the secret realm."
Li Dai immediately grasped the key point, "If you can't catch up under normal circumstances, what about special circumstances? How can you catch up?"
"Haha." When Li Dai asked, Shen Long and Jing Chiyang both laughed, but Jing Chiyang answered:
“Of course it’s possible under special circumstances!”
"Our seven major chambers of commerce in Kongdao City, the various families of the Ten Directions, in addition to the main family living in Kongdao City, there are also many branches and sub-clubs. It would be quite troublesome to move items according to normal conditions at that time, so For any branch outside, the seven major chambers of commerce in Sky Island City have set up corresponding teleportation arrays, and any valuables that need to be transferred will pass through our secret teleportation array."
"So if you want to reach the Western Plains in more than a month, you can only use the teleportation array of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce."
"Hey, it's also the case that our Jingxing Chamber of Commerce doesn't have a branch in the Western Plains. Otherwise, you could just use our Jingxing Chamber of Commerce's teleportation array."
"What are the conditions? Spirit stones?" After listening to Jing Chiyang's words, Li Dai finally understood the reason why Shen Long invited her over this time. If paying spirit stones can solve the problem, that would be great.
"Bah!" Shen Long closed his Shanhe Fan in seclusion, knocked it twice in his hand, and looked at Li Dai with admiration, "It's really easy to talk to smart people. Fellow Daoist Li, you are so self-aware that it makes it difficult for me to speak. Well, have you never thought of relying on our friendship to allow us to let you use the teleportation array for free?"
"Do you know how?" Li Dai did not answer his question directly, but asked instead.
"Haha." Shen Long smiled awkwardly and said:
"Actually, it's not impossible to let you use it for free, but everyone in Kongdao City knows that the teleportation arrays leading to the branches of our seven major chambers of commerce are set up in very secret places and are not open to the public. If Li Daoyou can join the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, As a guest elder, you can use the teleportation array as you want. Otherwise, no matter how close our friendship is, I will be happy to let you use it for free, and others will not agree! I believe it is the same with Brother Jing, so is that right? , Brother Jing?”
"Um..." Jing Chiyang was asked, he hesitated for a moment, then nodded and admitted, "Yes, that's the truth!"
"Many times in our seven major chambers of commerce, favors belong to favors, and rules are rules. The education we have received since childhood is not to confuse the two, and we cannot break the rules because of favors and friendships, so Li Daoyou, you must not blame Shen Di in your heart. , he really can’t make the decision regarding the use of the internal teleportation array.”
Li Dai smiled: "I understand, I understand!" If she has to complain about such a trivial matter, then she may not be too petty. That is not her Li Dai.
"Then how can I use your teleportation array? Do you really need spiritual stones?"
"Spiritual stones, although our chamber of commerce is at the bottom, we are also most in shortage of spiritual stones." Shen Long replied.
"Just tell me the conditions! If it really can't be used, then you won't call me over and tell me about the teleportation array." Li Dai didn't want to beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
After hearing this, both of them cast admiring glances at Li Dai. Li Dai was indeed not an ordinary transparent person!
Obviously she also understood that she had a purpose.
Therefore, Shen Long stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "There are two ways to use the teleportation array."
Li Dai opened her eyes slightly and listened carefully.
"The first is what I just said, becoming a member of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce and becoming an internal guest elder."
Li Dai shook her head. She had accepted to become a member of the preparatory special organization and did not want to join a certain force alone at the moment.
Seeing Li Dai shaking his head, Shen Long was quite sorry, but Li Dai's choice was also expected, so he continued:
"Then there is only one last option left. Take out a piece of heavenly materials and earthly treasures. The particularly rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures will give you the right to use the secret internal teleportation array once." After hesitating for a moment, he added, "Like Brother Jing. Some heavenly trees or million-year thunder spirits are very good, very good." In the sea of thunder, Yu Zhenghao, Jing Chiyang and Li Dai both obtained thunder spirits. Yu Zhenghao's thunder spirits were better than those of Li Dai and Jing. Chiyang's million-year thunder spirit is still much weaker, but because Yu Zhenghao and Jing Chiyang only have thunder spirits, they have become members of a special organization, so whether it is the Jingxing Chamber of Commerce where Jing Chiyang belongs or Yu Zhenghao Some people in the Taiyi Chamber of Commerce where Zhenghao is located have become members of the special organization, but not in the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, the people in the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce are also eager to get a treasure to become a member of it, and such a heavy burden falls on Shen Long. Who can let him He is the only person in Tianlong Chamber of Commerce who owns the semi-immortal weapon Shanhe Fan.
In fact, he really didn't want to say anything about Lei Ling. If the Lei Ling that Li Dai got was really as old as Jing Chiyang's, which was a million years old, Li Dai would definitely not take out such a peerless treasure, but he didn't say it. No way, many old guys from the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce were staring at him and told him that there was nothing he could do.
He repeatedly emphasized that he could only make friends with Li Dai, not offend her, let alone hurt her. At present, it seems that no one from the special organization has had direct contact with Li Dai. Maybe someone has contacted her privately, but they just kept quiet. He was too young and what he said had little weight in the Sky Chamber of Commerce, so he took a step back and asked him to invite Li Dai to ask.
After Shen Long finished speaking, not only Li Dai's expression changed, but also Jing Chiyang's expression became ugly. He looked at Shen Long with some irony: "Lei Ling, the same Lei Ling as me? Ha! You Tianlong Chamber of Commerce have such a big appetite. Ah, you dare to say such things!"
Lei Ling, also known as Lei Xiaoling, had been sent into the Hunyuan Array immediately by Li Dai. He was a kind of existence like an array spirit. The Hunyuan Array was in the new space. It accidentally jumped out and fought with the little Thunder Mushroom. It was hot, and Li Dai let it go.
Although Li Dai's feelings for Lei Xiaoling are not as deep as those of Xin Ling and Xin Huo, she has never thought of giving it to anyone else, let alone using a teleportation array. Even if she gave the entire Tianlong Chamber of Commerce to her, she would not Hand it over. Shen Long's words made Li Dai completely unhappy. She stood up directly:
"I don't think there's any need to talk!"
Shen Long also stood up in shock, "Don't be angry, fellow Daoist Li, and don't leave in a hurry! I know I've said what I said, but that's what the elders wanted me to say. I'm sorry if it makes you unhappy."
"Twenty yuan for Tianjuemu. Not even one more piece will do. I'll give you one day to go back and find out. If they agree to the deal, I'll come tomorrow and give me a summons then!" After saying that, Li Dai strode out. He opened the door and didn't look back.
When Li Dai's figure completely disappeared, Jing Chiyang looked at Shen Long reproachfully and shook his head: "You, Shen Di, you are confused! This time."
Shen Long's face didn't look good, and he smiled bitterly: "If Lei Ling doesn't come, it will push Fellow Daoist Li away. I wonder if they will regret it if they know this situation."
"Why!"
They both sighed.
"I just hope that there are more sober people in your chamber of commerce. Don't think you can control Daoyou Li just because she is alone in Sky Island City. She is really not someone you can offend." Out of the friendship during this period, thinking about how to protect Li Daoyou Jing Chiyang reminded the ancient Qingluan demon who had fallen ill three times sincerely and sincerely.
"I hope so." Shen Long was unsure.
"If they really pretend to agree to her using the teleportation array tomorrow and want to capture her, you have to find a way to get her to leave. If she needs it, send me a message." Jing Chiyang patted his shoulder and stood up. , and left after saying that.
The day passed quickly, and sure enough, Li Dai received Shen Long's messenger talisman the next morning. Their Tianlong Chamber of Commerce agreed and agreed to use 20 pieces of Tianjue wood to use a secret teleportation array.
When they saw Shen Long again, there was obviously some estrangement between the two. Shen Long didn't know what to say to resolve it, but he sent a message saying: "When you go in later, hand over Tian Juemu, and then leave like this. I'll do the rest." Let's do it." Shen Long couldn't bear to watch his own chamber of commerce seek death and completely offend Li Dai, so he had no choice but to deal with the situation. He hoped that Li Dai could see his efforts and not blame the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce too much, while Jing Chiyang was against the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce. Li Dai's affirmation made him think that Li Dai was someone who could not be offended.
"Okay, as long as I leave this time, I don't need to hold accountable the actions of other people in the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, but there will be no next time." Li Dai also replied with a cold face. She didn't expect to leave, and that little bit of insignificant exchanges Friendship still cannot be preserved. As expected, the positions are not absolutely consistent, and friendship is prone to problems.
Fortunately, she and Shen Xiao didn't have a deep friendship, so she didn't feel any sadness.
And with her powerful consciousness, how could she not notice the observations and dangers of so many people in the dark? After entering the secret passage of a certain commercial building, after walking for a long time, it seemed that she was about to reach the secret transmission location. Those people also seemed to be in a commotion.
After crossing the large hanging stone gate, I saw a row of teleportation arrays in front of me. Finally, those people moved.
Li Dai was pushed by Shen Long and pushed into the hanging stone gate, shouting: "Fellow Daoist Li, the third teleportation array, hurry up! I'll help you stop it!"
"Asshole, what are you doing?"
As Li Dai was pushed, Shen Long's last voice came out, and then with a loud "dong" sound, the huge hanging stone door fell down and closed, locking all those who were about to besiege Li Dai outside the stone door.
Li Dai vaguely heard the angry roar of an elder towards Shen Long.
This was within the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, and Li Dai had no intention of confronting the people from the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce. She paid the teleportation fee, and let Shen Long handle the other troubles.
But when she was still more than one meter away from the third teleportation array, Li Dai suddenly felt danger approaching. Li Dai bent down to avoid the huge palm wind. Li Dai's expression changed, but she saw a tall and burly man with a mustache. The figure of a middle-aged man appeared.
"That brat is indeed my kind. I really thought he was perfect at whatever he wanted to do. Unfortunately, he has deceived so many people, but he can't deceive his father."
Li Dai's face darkened. This man was in the early stage of Mahayana cultivation. Is Shen Long his father?
"Senior, do you really want to take action? Since Shen Long let me go, haven't you thought about the reason? Or is it that the thunder spirit in me has left you with nothing to worry about, even if you accompany the entire Tianlong Chamber of Commerce to get it?" I thought. After all, he is Shen Long's father. Li Dai did not directly strangle him with his spiritual consciousness. Instead, he talked nonsense. Of course, while speaking, he did not forget to throw a large number of spiritual stones into the groove of the third teleportation array through the air. The formation started to activate.
"Hmph! I don't care whether you are a thunder spirit or not. I want to see what you are capable of, worthy of that brat's protection. Let's see what you do!" This attack did not have killing intent, but Li Dai was unwilling to tangle with him. , the new sword came out immediately, and the life-threatening needles of the Phantom God came overwhelmingly. Along with her new sword, the misty transfer made Shen Long's father stunned for a moment. Li Dai took the opportunity to jump into the teleportation array, and when he returned, Surprisingly, there is no trace of Li Dai anywhere.
He actually escaped like that under his nose. The brat was right. If this female cultivator cannot be killed, she must not be an enemy.
"boom!"
"Bang bang bang!"
At the same time, outside the hanging stone gate, the entire stone gate was shattered due to the battle attack, making a deafening sound in the secret passage. Shen Long was also seriously injured by the other two elders, showing no mercy.
When the middle-aged man with a mustache saw it, his expression changed drastically and he flew out, roaring, "Stop it, stop it!" The pressure was released and he finally stabilized his form.
Shen Long was shocked when his father came out of it. He was relieved when he saw that no one was around Li Dai. He thought his father had let Li Dai go, so he gave him a grateful look.
After confirming that Li Dai had left safely, Shen Long fainted from pain. Before fainting, he did not forget to crush the communication jade in his hand, which was the secret code for him and Jing Chiyang.
Outside, Jing Chiyang received a signal and knew that Li Dai was gone, so he got up and left. He looked at the important elders of Tianlong Chamber of Commerce and said, "This time I am here to discuss the cooperation between Jingxing Chamber of Commerce and Tianlong Chamber of Commerce. More representative elders will come and say it in person, Chi Yang, say goodbye!" Shen Long asked him to find a way to drag these people and reduce the number of them ambushing Li Dai, and he was done.
Seeing him leave, a group of elders of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce were confused, so Jing Chiyang talked for a long time, but what did he say?
Why do you feel like you've been fooled?
