"Don't worry, Wenwu. I've already thought of this. The Sky Phoenix Army is probably at the border now. If anyone wants to take advantage of us, I don't mind killing them." The girl raised her eyebrows, revealing a heroic spirit and a murderous aura. It was obvious that she was not a flower that grew up in a greenhouse.
"With Royal Sister by my side, I'm relieved," Hua Wenwu said happily. He looked at the void, his eyes full of determination. He clenched his fists. Everything was for the sake of ascending to the throne. He had an ambition in his heart. If he could get Mr. Di's support, perhaps he could become the first Emperor to unite the three countries in the eastern land. What kind of glory would that be? What kind of great achievement would it be? It would be recorded in the annals of history.
As for all this, he only had to pay the price of a totem. No matter how he looked at it, this price was worth it.
If he knew that Hua Wenwu had such an ambition, Di Shitian would not have stopped him. Instead, he would have helped him without hesitation. As long as China's territory was bigger and there were more people, he would get more power of faith. Why not?
It seemed that Di Shitian's totem plan was about to succeed.
Now, outside the Guqin Valley, Wan Tao, who had been thinking for a long time, felt that there was something wrong with the attack that night. It seemed that he had overlooked something. However, when he thought about it carefully, he could not figure out what was wrong. This made him feel anxious and doubtful.
"Hey, I remember now. The puppets that Sakra released before and after seemed to be somewhat different. One was completely purple, and the other wasn't completely purple. Could it be that there's something different inside? Could it be that the later ones didn't have the same strength as the two at the beginning?"
A thought flashed through Wan Tao's mind. It seemed that the Fighting Souls that appeared later were very different from the ones that had appeared earlier. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. However, when he thought about the thousands of Fighting Souls that were densely packed together, he could not help but feel extremely fearful. That situation was truly too terrifying.
Now, the best way to verify his thoughts was to find Di Shitian and fight him again. However, when he thought of the situation, he felt a little hesitant. That night had left a deep impression on him. Just thinking about it made his hair stand on end.
His expression kept changing, and the light in his eyes flickered. After pondering for a long time, he finally said to himself, "Forget it. Anyway, Di Shitian is already hiding in the Zither Melody Valley. I might as well send a message back to Master and see if there are any other ways before making a decision."
After making up his mind, he quickly took out a small blood-red sword and imprinted his Divine Sense on it. Then, the blood-red sword quickly flew away. In the blink of an eye, it had disappeared without a trace. It was extremely fast.
Time continued to pass in this silence. To immortal cultivators, time was cheap, but it was also very important. However, time would not stop for anyone or anything. It continued to move forward silently. Flowers bloomed and wilted. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
In these three months, Di Shitian had been quietly staying in the valley. He did not go out most of the time. Most of the time, he was seizing every minute to accumulate his Demonic Qi, the Qi of Heaven and Earth, and the essence of the sun and the moon. He was constantly refining the bodies in the Demon-refining Cauldron. Thousands of corpses were being refined one by one.
Forming the first Demonic Vein meant that his cultivation would enter a period of rapid growth. The barrier to the growth of his Demonic Qi was completely gone. It could be said that his Demonic Qi was increasing almost every day. The height of the Demonic Qi in the cauldron was slowly rising.
For a long time, there were too few times where he could cultivate in peace. Di Shitian knew that although he had reached this stage by chance, in the eyes of the real experts, he was still like an ant. Although he did not want to think this way, it was the truth. There was no need to deny it.
This kind of pressure, this kind of invisible pressure, forced him to seize every inch of time to cultivate. At the same time, he was secretly experimenting to see if he could use the power of the Verdant Jade Zither to eliminate the hidden danger in his body. What was disappointing was that the Verdant Jade Zither was only suppressing it. The power inside was not under his control at all. There was no progress.
It was worth mentioning that in these three months, he had grasped the various fundamentals of music. How to read the music score, what each note represented, what the strings on the zither were, what the notes were, what they meant, what the strings on the zither were, and what the notes were. During this time, he was like a dry sponge, desperately absorbing all the nutrients.
Every bit of knowledge that he heard, he carefully considered, pondered, and thoroughly understood.
With Di Shitian's intelligence, which was not inferior to any genius, learning these things was easy for him.
"Hu!!"
He opened his eyes and looked at the sky. Darkness was gradually replacing the day. Night had arrived, and the moon hung high in the sky. Outside, birds and insects were chirping. Moonlight sprinkled down and fell into the bamboo forest, creating a poetic and picturesque scene. It was a distant mood.
In Di Shitian's eyes, there was a faint trace of anticipation. After three months of building the foundation, he had learned all the theoretical knowledge of music. This morning, Kotomi had finally said that starting tomorrow, she would officially teach him various skills. In other words, starting tomorrow, he would officially start learning the zither.
"Big brother Di!!"
A familiar call came from outside the door. Hearing this call, Di Shitian's body could not help but tremble slightly, and a trace of hesitation appeared between his brows. However, he still walked downstairs, opened the door, and saw Kotomi standing in the pavilion. In the pavilion, there were some simple dishes and wine.
Seeing Di Shitian come out, Kotomi seemed to be very happy and said softly, "Big brother Di, during this period of time, you have finished learning the basics. Tomorrow, you will officially start learning the zither. Kotomi specially prepared a few dishes to celebrate with you."
"Thank you!!"
Di Shitian hesitated for a moment, but still walked into the pavilion. The two of them sat down facing each other.
Qinxin reached out her jade-like hand and picked up the wine jug, pouring a cup for Sakra. The wine in the cup was dark green in color, and waves of strange wine fragrance constantly permeated the air. Just by smelling it, one would have the urge to drink it. It was very attractive.
"This is a century-old wine that my father treasured. Try it and see how it tastes. Usually, even my father could not bear to drink much of it. He kept it like a treasure. These few dishes were also made by me. " Kotomi glanced at Di Shitian and greeted him softly. There seemed to be an inexplicable look in her eyes when she looked at him.
"Thank you, Miss Kotomi." Di Shitian seemed to avoid her gaze. He picked up the wine cup in front of him and poured it into his mouth. As soon as the wine entered his mouth, there was a warm feeling in his heart. It flowed down his throat and all the way to his stomach. Then, a wonderful taste emerged. In his heart, there seemed to be a wonderful feeling emerging. The strong wine rushed to his head like a stream of air, and all the pores on his body seemed to open in an instant.
An indescribable comfort surged in his heart. His whole person felt like he was floating in the air.
"Good wine!!"
Di Shitian tasted it for a long time and could not help but spit out two words. His praise could be said to be from the bottom of his heart. The taste of this wine was not inferior to the Monkey Wine at all. It was really wonderful.
When Kotomi heard it, there seemed to be a smile on her face under the white veil. She took out a zither and put her jade hands on it. She smiled and said, "Good wine also needs to be accompanied by music. It just so happens that Big Brother Di will start learning the zither tomorrow. Today, Kotomi will play a song for you alone to taste."
"Okay." When Sakra heard this, he couldn't help but nod his head and said, "When I was in China, I heard people say that Zither Fairy's zither skills had already reached perfection. When the zither sounds, even butterflies would dance. Today, I just happened to experience this legendary sound of nature." Thinking of the rumors he heard at that time, his heart couldn't help but faintly look forward to it. One had to know that in these three months, Qinxin had never displayed her zither skills.
Kotomi pursed her lips and smiled. Her jade fingers gently plucked the strings.
"Ding dong!! — — "
The melodious sound of the zither sounded. In this quiet night, it was like an orchid in an empty valley. Moreover, after this sound, Kotomi's ten fingers kept dancing on the zither. The strings were plucked lightly and heavily. The movement of playing the zither was like moving clouds and flowing water. A kind of natural aura flashed from her body.
Di Shitian listened attentively.
This song, he did not know what it was, but there was a quiet and serene mood in the sound of the zither. Listening to it, one's mind could not help but become empty with the sound of the zither. Immersed in the sound of the zither, the sound of the zither was really like the sound of nature. In the mind, a kind of relaxed idea slowly emerged.
There was nothing in his mind, and his eyes unconsciously closed.
When the sound of the zither sounded in Di Shitian's body, a strange force slowly surged to his head. Along with the sound of the zither, his eyelids gradually closed. It was as if he was slowly falling asleep in the sound of the zither.
However, just as he was about to fall into a silent sleep, a cool and mysterious force suddenly came from the Seven Sins Demonic Zither in the Demon Abode. It rushed along the Demon Vein and quickly rushed to his head. The icy aura also swept away his thoughts of drowsiness on the spot.
"No, the sound of the zither is wrong. The wine is also wrong."
Almost instantly, Di Shitian realized that there was something wrong with the wine that he had just drunk. The strength of the aftereffects was really unimaginable. With his constitution, even if he drank a thousand cups of ordinary wine, he might not get drunk. However, in silence, the wine rushed to his head, causing him to almost pass out. If one listened carefully, there was a faint hypnotic rhythm in the sound of the zither.
When one heard it, the thought of falling into a deep sleep would unconsciously surge forth.
Coupled with the wine, even he unknowingly fell for the trick.
