The Clever Di Xin

After taking the book, Di Xin casually flipped through a few pages, but soon her expression turned serious, and she read it more and more attentively.

Although there was no Formation Diagram or Formation Inscription on it, with her expertise in array formations, just by looking at what kind of materials the array required, she could tell that the array was not simple.

Actually, she didn't even need to read the book. It was impossible for an array set up with Top-Grade Spirit Stone to be simple; she already had a guess in her mind.

After a long while, when Di Xin saw the last page of the material, his expression changed drastically. He stared wide-eyed at Long Xuan, revealing a rare look of discomposure.

The last page was actually a record of all the rare and spirit medicine she had newly planted in her Medicine Garden. When did this little thief write that down? His hand was too fast!

Setting up a formation requires a bunch of spirit medicine as materials? Is he kidding me?

Di Xin took a deep breath, his chest heaving as he suppressed the urge to break down. He slowly put down the book in his hand, looked up at Long Xuan, and said with a meaningful gaze, "Your formation is quite extraordinary; it's at the very least a Vicious Formation."

"The terrifying nature of this formation is something I have never seen before in my life; it ranks among the top three of all formations I know."

"Give me the array Formation Diagram, and I'll buy you two Top-Grade Spirit Stone plus one-third of the materials in this book."

Long Xuan could not possibly agree to her request. If he really gave her the Formation Diagram of the Five-Element Reversal Grand Formation, wouldn't she be able to enter his Five-Element Reversal Grand Formation at will? That was absolutely unacceptable.

Long Xuan looked at her with some surprise and said, "This only shows the materials, and not even all of them. How can you tell that this formation is not simple? And you dare to pay such a high price to exchange for it? Aren't you afraid of losing money? To tell you the truth, this formation is very weak."

Di Xin's lips curled into a smirk, giving him an expression that said, "Don't insult my professional skills. Your formation requires only the most precious materials of the five elements. The finished formation should have five Formation Eye, creating Vicious Formation that can Five-Element Cycle elements. It would be strange if such a formation were simple."

"The barrier created by the Five-Element Cycle can be endlessly regenerated and can also repair itself, making it extremely difficult for anyone to break."

"And your formation requires so many barriers? You're not so afraid of dying that you'd set up ninety-nine barriers in your own home, are you? That's a bit excessive. Doing that is very energy-consuming. You're not planning to use it to defend against the Gu King, are you?"

Di Xin looked at him with a strange gaze, his eyes flickering.

Long Xuan was completely astonished by Di Xin's mastery of formations. He realized that he had greatly underestimated Di Xin's skill in formations. This person was simply a formation prodigy, no, a formation monster. There was probably nothing in the field of formations that could escape her notice.

"To be honest, there's no way I can hand over the Formation Diagram to you. Otherwise, I wouldn't feel safe at all in front of someone like you who specializes in Formation Raider."

"If you are very interested in the Formation Diagram of Vicious Formation, I currently have another Vicious Formation Diagram. I guarantee that the power of this Vicious Formation is no weaker than my formation, and may even exceed it. It will absolutely meet your requirements."

Long Xuan smiled and placed a book with no writing on its cover on the table, revealing a confident smile.

This Peerless Vicious Formation is naturally the tomb-protecting formation in the Empress's Tomb. That formation is absolutely top-notch, especially since it also utilizes advanced Solar Energy Technology.

Under the Eye of Heavenly Secrets, this formation held no secrets for him. In order to learn the Solar Energy Technology of this formation, he ordered his clone to memorize the Formation Diagram of this Vicious Formation.

It's no exaggeration to say that this formation is on par with my own Five-Element Reversal Grand Formation.

His Five-Element Reversal Grand Formation is strong in shrinking the Formation Inscription by a hundred times, but due to limitations in his cultivation level and knowledge of array formations, many aspects are still quite rough.

Without microscopic technology, his Five-Element Reversal Grand Formation actually has no advantage over the world's top arrays; only the Rubik's Cube Grand Formation has some merit.

Di Xin curiously picked up the book on the table and casually flipped through a few pages. There was an unwritten rule in the transmission of trading knowledge: one could only randomly look at a few pages, not the whole thing.

So she just flipped through it casually and then wisely put the book down.

A smile played on her lips as she said, "The formation from the Empress's Ancient Tomb? This formation is indeed formidable. I never expected her to place the protective Formation Diagram inside the tomb. I wonder what she was thinking."

"I am indeed very interested in the Formation Diagram of this Vicious Formation, and I am willing to trade it for a Top-Grade Spirit Stone."

Upon hearing this, Long Xuan's smile froze on his face, and he hurriedly asked, "Are you so sure that a Top-Grade Spirit Stone is equivalent to the Formation Diagram in the Empress's Tomb?"

"Do you even know how powerful that formation is? It utilizes extremely advanced Solar Energy Technology. I dare say there are very few people in the entire world who understand this technology."

"You just offered two top-grade spirit stones and half the materials from the book in exchange for my Five Elements Reversal Array diagram. The power of this array diagram is definitely no less than that of the Five Elements Reversal Array. How can you treat me unfairly?"

Di Xin smiled and shook his head, looking at Long Xuan with a slight smile, "The problem is that I already have more than half of the Formation Diagram for this great formation."

"Without my guidance! Do you really think that bunch of useless fools can break this Vicious Formation? Without my guidance, each race will only continue to lose manpower in this ancient tomb, and won't be able to bring out a single treasure."

"Otherwise, how do you think I suddenly broke through to the Marrow Cleansing Stage? Without the abundant Spirit-Ascending Grass in the tomb, could someone with my aptitude have broken through?"

"When I was cracking this Vicious Formation, I had already figured out most of the principles, but I was still unable to crack the solar energy part, which is why each race can only enter the tomb at night."

"Now that I know the general outline of this formation, its value will naturally be greatly reduced. If you want to trade the formation Formation Diagram with me, I can only give you one Top-Grade Spirit Stone."

Upon hearing this, Long Xuan said nothing more, placing a Insect-Rearing Pouch and Storage Bag on the table, and said, "I learned it from you. After I mastered the technique of breaking formations, I also went on a rampage, visiting the treasure vaults of various races."

"Knowing you like high-quality Spirit Insect and elixirs, I've picked out those and will use the remaining materials instead."

Di Xin opened the Insect-Rearing Pouch and Storage Bag, glanced inside casually, roughly estimated the quantity, and then closed the Insect-Rearing Pouch and Storage Bag.

He chuckled lightly, "These things of yours are no match for my Top-Grade Spirit Stone; they can barely be exchanged for the materials in that book."

Although Long Xuan frequently raided the Qian Clan Gambling Stone Shop and the seven major clans' jade gambling shops, and had countless high-quality Spirit Insect in his Insect-Rearing Pouch, the value of those insects would indeed be significantly lower if exchanged for a third of the materials and Top-Grade Spirit Stone described in the book.

Long Xuan was already mentally prepared and said directly, "Just tell me what you want, I'll take it."

Di Xin suddenly revealed a strange smile, leaned forward, and looked at Long Xuan with a playful smile, saying, "Bring out the tree you stole from the cave abode and I'll exchange it. Nothing else you bring out, I won't exchange."

Upon hearing this, Long Xuan was startled, but his expression remained blank as he looked at her with confusion, saying, "Tree? What tree? I don't understand what you're saying. You're talking strangely!"

"Hehe!" Di Xin chuckled playfully, "Keep pretending! Keep pretending!"

"Only a few of us knew about that cave abode. After we left, I returned to the cave abode not long after, and in such a short time, the treasure that guarded the cave was stolen."

"The one who walked out was clearly a clone. No one else had the time to commit the crime but you. Who else could it be but you?"

Di Xin glared at him through gritted teeth and said, "You're the cunning one! You stole the treasure of the town, but you're making me take the blame. Now everyone thinks I stole the treasure."

"That Old Daoist Li comes after me every day, nagging me every time I go to the trade fair. I'm speechless now! You're the only one in all these years who has managed to swindle me, Di Xin!" Di Xin glared at him fiercely.

Long Xuan touched his nose, knowing that even if he denied it to the death, Di Xin wouldn't believe him. After all, he was the only one who had the time to commit the crime, so it was indeed unlikely that he could deny it.

So he could only say helplessly, "You know, that kind of tree can't be transplanted. I was selfish back then, fantasizing that it would succeed if I transplanted it to my own Medicine Garden, but in the end it still died."

Since he couldn't deny the debt, Long Xuan had no choice but to come up with another idea and simply say that the tree was dead.

This explanation is reasonable, and it's highly likely that Di Xin will believe it.

Di Xin nodded and said, "Of course I know you couldn't have successfully transplanted that tree, but you definitely picked all the fruit from it."

"You couldn't possibly eat all the fruit by yourself, and given your personality, you wouldn't have the guts to sell it, so you must have some left over. You don't need to tell me how much you have; I won't believe you."

"Two fruits for one Top-Grade Spirit Stone, no bargaining. Just tell me if you're willing to trade or not. If you insist you don't have any, then this Top-Grade Spirit Stone is simply out of your reach."

Seeing her expression, Long Xuan knew that if he didn't offer the Fire Dragon Fruit today, he definitely wouldn't be able to exchange it for this Top-Grade Spirit Stone.

Left with no other choice, he could only place the two jade boxes on the table and say with a wry smile, "Believe it or not, I really only have these two left."

He didn't feel the slightest bit heart about giving away the Fire Dragon Fruit. He had already developed a resistance to it, so it was useless to him now. Even if he kept it, it would just rot away. Getting rid of the nearly rotten Fire Dragon Fruit today might be a good choice.

Upon seeing the two jade boxes, Di Xin finally showed joy. After opening the two boxes, he saw two fruits inside that looked like they were burning with fire, and his joy grew even greater.

To avoid excessive drug evaporation, she pressed the box down as quickly as possible.

"Keep these two Top-Grade Spirit Stone safe. I'll go prepare the rest of the materials from that book now."

Di Xin stood up, threw two glowing stones at Long Xuan, then gathered up everything on the table and turned to walk into his small house.

Soon after, Di Xin emerged from his small house and threw a pile of Storage Bag Storage Bag at Long Xuan, so many that they almost filled a table.

At the same time, a giant beetle emerged from Di Xin's Medicine Garden and placed several Storage Bag on the table.

Di Xin subconsciously looked at her Medicine Garden and discovered that her paradise had been bald in a large area, looking like it had been chewed by a dog. Her mood immediately soured!

"Grab your things and get out of here! Don't let me see you again!"
