Zhao Di threw out more than thirty fire snake talismans. These red talismans immediately flashed a red light, transforming into snakes made of fire, which charged towards the golden short knives.

  "Boom boom boom" explosions continued, red light like fireworks, flashing and roaring around Zhao Di's surroundings.

  Each of the fire snakes collided with a golden short knife and exploded together, turning into tiny sparks that disappeared.

  Huǒ shé shù hé jīn rèn shù dōu shì liàn qì qī liàn qì qī zhōng jiē fǎ shù, wēi néng dà dǐ xiāng děng, tóng guī yú jìn yě shì hěn zhèng cháng de.

  Occasionally, two or three golden short knives of the fish that escaped the net broke through the Fire Snake's blockade and stabbed towards Zhao Di. However, they were ultimately dissolved into nothingness by the seven or eight layers of defensive shields on Zhao Di's body.

  Seeing Zhao's proficient use of over thirty fire snake talismans, the Lu surname cultivator was taken aback, then coldly laughed and said: "Hmph! Brother Zhao has so many talismans, I didn't expect that. However, my Golden Blade Subdues Tiger formation can continuously produce these golden blade attacks as long as the middle-grade spirit stone's spiritual energy isn't depleted. Let's see if Brother can still take out this many talismans to resist!"

  While speaking, Lu Xing continued to add points to the golden law disk without stopping. The huge golden canopy began to repeat its previous actions, slowly gathering into small golden balls that transformed into short golden knives. The number and power of these knives were exactly the same as last time, with no signs of weakening.

  Zhao Di helplessly took out more than 30 Fire Snake Talismans again, and once again withstood the attack of the Golden Blade Fow Tiger Formation!

  Upon witnessing this scene, the calm and composed expression of Lu Xian couldn't help but turn solemn. The opponent's talismans were indeed too numerous! Two consecutive attacks had been repelled! Although these golden blades' attacks relied on the formation array to propel them, he merely needed to give slight commands. However, utilizing the Ink Shield, an extreme-grade artifact, was continuously depleting his massive spiritual energy. At this point, his spiritual energy had already been depleted by more than half! He hastily pulled out a blue-glinting mid-tier water-attribute spirit stone and ceaselessly absorbed its spiritual energy. Meanwhile, his other hand continued to gesture towards the golden formation disk, intent on gathering another wave of golden blade attacks!

  At this time, Zhao Di was even more anxious in his heart. The attack of the method array could be described as relentless! And the remaining fire snake symbols in his storage bag were only over a hundred, just enough to withstand three such array attacks again. It seems that unless he destroys the golden law disk operated by Lu Xing's cultivator, these waves and waves of golden short knives will eventually chop him into pieces!

  However, the opponent's inkstone was actually a very good extreme defensive magic tool, and the small silver sword couldn't do anything to it!

  At this point, Zhao Di's heart hardened and with a swift motion of his hand towards his waist, he had two more things in his hand.

  A yellowed talisman with a vividly drawn small knife over an inch long.

  A blue water-attribute spirit stone of the same size, but with a more transparent color, in a semi-transparent state, containing an astonishingly large amount of spiritual energy!

  "Treasures! This, this is actually a high-grade spirit stone! You, you! How can you possibly have a high-grade spirit stone!" The moment the Lu surname cultivator saw these two things, his eyes widened in shock and he stuttered as he spoke. In an instant, the Lu surname cultivator's expression changed from shock to greed, and finally transformed into a fearful look.

  Zhao Di, under the extremely fast spiritual energy absorption of the high-grade spirit stone, quickly transferred a large amount of spiritual energy into the talisman. The small yellow knife on the talisman paper was gradually becoming brighter and more delicate, even jumping non-stop on the surface of the talisman paper, and it was possible to jump out of the paper at any time.

  At this time, under the control of Lu Xing Shi, more than 30 golden short knives in the third wave attacked Zhao Di again.

  Zhao's movements were extremely familiar as he took out more than thirty fire snake talismans, and then ignored Jin Dao's attacks, continuing to focus on sending his spiritual energy into the Symbolic Knife.

  Not long after the disappearance of Jīn Dāo and Huǒ Shé in the third wave, Fú Bǎo was finally infused with enough spiritual energy. Suddenly, it transformed into a yellow flying knife over a foot long, accompanied by a yellow glow several inches in size, and flew towards Lù Xìng's cultivator!

  The Lu surname cultivator who was like a dog jumping over the wall let out a loud shout, pouring all of his spiritual energy into the Ink Shield, holding it in front of himself. Then, with a flash of movement, he attempted to make a run for it!

  Zhao Di exposed his trump card, how could he let the opponent leave! He manipulated the silver small sword and the talisman dagger, sandwiching the opponent from front and back. No matter how fast Lu Xing's evasion speed was, it was impossible to compare with the full-speed flight of the flying artifact. After several rounds, Lu Xing not only failed to escape but was also beaten by these two powerful attack artifacts and talismans, becoming flustered.

  "Lu Shixiong, I'm asking you for the last time, how did you know in advance and set up this trap!" Zhao Di asked coldly.

  Lu Xing, who was desperately resisting, didn't say a word, but thought to himself: "Hey, do you think I'd speak up? Now that I've seen your high-grade spirit stone, will you let me off?"

  Zhao Di's pupils contracted, and at the same time, Fu Bao's small knife and silver sword stabbed out from either side of Lu Xing's body, their distance close and speed fast!

  Lu Xing's shield was only able to withstand the yellow dagger's attack, but his defense was pierced by the silver spearhead and he was cut in two with a single sword!

  Zhao hastily used his silver sword to chop the golden magic plate into pieces, and the huge golden light shield on his head suddenly disappeared. Then he skillfully removed the opponent's storage bag, snapped his fingers, and a fireball flew out, turning the corpse into ashes.

  After quickly tidying up the scene of the fight, Zhao Di put on his hundred-feather boots and rushed towards the Refining Room at full speed!

  If it weren't for the entire Zhaoyin Peak having a forbidden aerial array, he would definitely use his fastest flight artifact.

  Because of harming fellow disciples, it is strictly forbidden in the Tai Xu Men door rules! Although he was forced to do so, if he was caught with a hint of evidence, he would be doomed!

  However, he also believed that since the other party chose to set up a formation trap here, there must be no other fellow disciples moving around nearby, and today's matter should not be exposed.

  Half a time later, the entrance of the refining room was in front of him. Zhao Di slowed down his pace, tidied up his clothes and came to the transmission array with a relaxed expression. He politely said to the two Qi Refining stage disciples guarding the refining room: "Two seniors, I would like to rent a high-quality refining room."

  These two people had just been transferred to this place to guard the refining room and did not know Zhao Di. One of them heard that as soon as the other opened his mouth, he wanted to enter the high-grade refining room, and immediately replied in a bad tone: "The high-grade refining room costs 10 spirit stones per month, can you afford it?"

  Zhao calmly took out two mid-grade spirit stones, one red and one green, and casually tossed them to the disciple, saying: "I'm going to be in seclusion for a very long time, this is the prepaid spirit stone!"

  Two people met, and Zhao Di casually took out two middle-grade spirit stones. The other cultivator was surprised, his face immediately becoming enthusiastic. "Hehe, it turns out that Brother Disciple is a wealthy person, I didn't expect this! Come, this is the restricted law disk of the 9th smelting room, Brother Disciple take it. We'll keep these two middle-grade spirit stones for now, and return any extra to Brother Disciple after he comes out of seclusion! Anyway, for the next three years, we two will be in charge of handling the affairs of the smelting room."

  Seeing the other person suddenly become extremely enthusiastic, Zhao Di instead became indifferent and carelessly stepped into the transmission array.

  Those two monks didn't mind Zhao Di's rudeness either, but instead thought that such a wealthy junior brother must have come from a big family background and should be so arrogant and superior.

  As for the two middle-grade spirit stones, this wealthy junior didn't specifically instruct otherwise, so it was assumed to be equivalent to 200 low-grade spirit stones. If the two of them were to exchange them in the market, each person could get a few low-grade spirit stones. In that case, their moods naturally improved, and they couldn't care less about whether the other was being polite or not.

  Moreover, if the other party comes out of seclusion within twenty months, at that time, these two will naturally find all sorts of excuses to intentionally retrieve fewer spirit stones. Wouldn't they be able to make a big profit again?!

  After the two were transported away by Zhao Di, they began whispering to each other in hushed tones to make up excuses.

  "The rent for the top-grade refining room is one gold coin per month. If it's less than a month, we still charge for the whole month!"

  "It's better to say it's charged semi-annually, and if it's less than half a year, the full half-year fee is still charged!"

  "This is a great idea! You're still the most ruthless, Master Mo!"

  "Haha, same to you!"

  ……

  And a year and a half later, when the two saw Zhao Di again after he came out of his closed-door training, all those excuses they had thought of for so long were rendered useless!
