I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 614: Feng Han's Defeat, Wei Tu's Talent (5k, please subscribe)

The Panshi Mine is located on the edge of the Jishan Sect's influence.

Because they were accompanied by other disciples, Wei Tu, Zhuang Shou, and Palace Master Luo did not use their own escape methods to travel faster. According to the speed of the flying boat that the cultivators were riding, it would take about ten days to arrive.

On the seventh day.

Wei Tu and others arrived smoothly near the Three Snake Island according to the itinerary schedule.

"Take a day's rest."

Wei Tu sensed the aura that Feng Han had leaked to him. He paused and stopped the disciple from the Law Enforcement Hall who was operating the flying boat.

"Why rest?"

Palace Master Luo pretended to be confused, walked out of the cabin with Zhuang Shou, and asked with a frown.

Upon seeing this, Wei Tu immediately spoke out the speech he had prepared long ago, saying that he had just caught a ray of energy near the Three Snake Island, which should be the appearance of a fourth-level sea beast.

Ordinary monks cannot avoid fourth-level sea beasts.

But in front of their three Nascent Soul powerhouses, the fourth-order monster is far from being a threat, just like a purse picked up on the road.

No one would refuse this windfall!

As soon as the words fell, Palace Master Luo and Zhuang Shou were overjoyed and immediately agreed to Wei Tu's order, ordering the disciples of the Law Enforcement Palace on the flying boat to take a day's rest.

Next, the three of them agreed on a plan to let Zhuang Shou stay where he was, responsible for protecting the practitioners of the Law Enforcement Hall, while Wei Tu and Hall Master Luo would leave the flying boat and go to hunt the fourth-level sea beast.

As for the gains from killing the fourth-order sea beast, they were shared among the three of them.

The words fell.

Wei Tu immediately noticed the subtle fluctuations of the magical weapon on the flying boat, which flashed by.

The fluctuating aura of his magical power echoed with the direction where Feng Han was.

Seeing this, he and Palace Master Luo looked at each other and nodded slightly.

next moment.

The two of them turned into a beam of light, flew up from the deck of the flying boat, and explored in different directions.

……

After a while.

Wei Tu reunited with the disguised Feng Han, and successfully obtained from him a "Chunqing Pill" that could be used to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and a spiritual plant that looked like a dead tree.

This spiritual dead tree was what Feng Han had promised to give to Wei Tu, and it was something equivalent to the Pure Purity Pill.

"When Elder Wei is practicing the 'Original Wood Sutra' and condensing the Dharma image, if he can get the help of the wood heart of the fourth-grade top-grade spiritual wood, he will get twice the result with half the effort."

"This piece of dead wood is called Fire Burning Wood. It burns once every three hundred years. After the ninth time, it will condense into a Fire Burning Wood Heart. Now, this wood has reached the sixth time."

"That is to say, in another nine hundred years, this tree will be able to produce a fire-burning wood heart and help Elder Wei condense the 'Source Wood Dharma Image'."

Feng Han smiled slightly and introduced.

"Nine hundred years?"

Wei Tu secretly thought it was a pity. According to his own estimated speed of cultivation, without other opportunities, it would take him at most four hundred years to reach the stage of condensing the Dharmakāya and breaking through to the Spiritual Transformation Realm.

Five hundred years of time difference...

The treasure that Feng Han gave him was the same as if he had not given it to him.

However, it was an unexpected surprise, so he had no reason to complain. He nodded and took the two treasures from Feng Han.

"I wonder how many masters Palace Master Feng invited to kill Palace Master Luo this time?"

"Do you need some help from Wei?"

Wei Tu asked this question seemingly unintentionally.

The lineup of experts deployed by Feng Han will determine the strength of his counterattack later.

If there is less, he will hide his shortcomings more.

If there are more, he will hide his shortcomings less.

Hearing this, Feng Han did not doubt him. After all, Wei Tu, who had accepted his benefits, might hope that Palace Master Luo would die today even more than he did.

Traitors are more hateful than enemies.

"Five people." Feng Han casually reported a number to evade Wei Tu.

He also said: "If Elder Wei is worried, when we surround and kill Luo Guzhuo, Elder Wei can just wait outside the formation."

This sentence was just something Feng Han said unintentionally.

But unexpectedly, Wei Tu seemed to take it seriously and nodded, as if he really intended to do so.

Seeing this, Feng Han's heart moved, his eyes turned slightly cold, but he said with a smile: "If the masters on my side fail to successfully surround and kill Luo Guzhuo, and let him go, and he is captured by Elder Wei, I will not take any of Luo Guzhuo's wealth, but give it all to Elder Wei, and from now on, I will owe Elder Wei a favor."

In Feng Han's mind, although Wei Tu was quite intelligent, he was obviously a very greedy guy.

Therefore, he did not mind temporarily hooking Wei Tu with huge benefits, and after dealing with Luo Guzhuo, he would take action against Wei Tu.

——It is difficult to kill the Nascent Soul masters who are aware of the threat and thus avoid it from afar.

But obviously, Wei Tu, who was driven by greed, was not among them.

"really?"

Wei Tu asked with an interested look on his face.

"It's true."

"When did Feng deceive Elder Wei?"

Feng Han laughed and promised Wei Tu.

Next.

The two of them didn't stay any longer and parted ways.

After a while, Wei Tu lured Palace Master Luo to the ambush site according to the plan agreed upon with Feng Han.

After arriving here.

Wei Tu immediately made a hand gesture and used the "Cursed Ghost Blood Escape" to break out of the encirclement and came outside.

And in the moment he left.

On the sea surface beneath Lord Luo's feet, a huge black formation rose quietly, like a giant net, directly swallowing Lord Luo's entire body from bottom to top.

When Wei Tu stopped and turned around, he saw that the place where Palace Master Luo was just now had turned into a huge formation light ball, floating on the sea.

"Including Feng Han, there are a total of four Nascent Soul masters. Three in the late Nascent Soul stage, and one in the middle Nascent Soul stage."

A golden light flashed in Wei Tu's eyes, and he immediately saw the strength of Feng Han from the light ball of the formation.

He remained calm and immediately crushed the communication talisman in his right hand.

next moment.

All I heard was a loud shout.

"How dare you attack and kill the Lord of the Law Enforcement Hall of my sect."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Lord of the Finance Hall, "Zhuang Shou", who had been on the flying boat guarding a group of disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall, flew over here angrily.

"It's just Zhuang Shou alone, so it's not a big problem."

Feng Han was not panicked when he saw this, as he had already prepared for Zhuang Shou to come to the rescue upon hearing the news.

However, considering that Wei Tu was still outside the formation and could use his strength to help, he threatened without hesitation: "Elder Wei, if today's incident is leaked, you and I will be executed and our entire clan will be exterminated."

"Quickly stop Zhuang Shou. I'll come to help you after I take care of Luo Guzhuo."

however--

Just as Feng Han finished speaking.

He saw that Wei Tu, who had just stopped outside the formation, flew away without even looking back.

Seeing this scene, Feng Han was stunned.

But at this moment, he had no time to hesitate. He cursed Wei Tu inwardly, wishing him a miserable death, then made a hand gesture and directly summoned a fourth-grade top-quality puppet, letting it come out of the formation and stop Zhuang Shou.

But the next moment.

I saw a flash of red light passing by.

The fourth-grade top-quality puppet that Feng Han had high hopes for was instantly cut in half and fell from the air.

At the same time, this ray of red light continued to shoot towards the black formation light ball where they were.

"Is this the power of Venerable Han Yue?"

Seeing this, Feng Han was immediately shocked. As the master of the Merit Hall, he was qualified to meet Venerable Han Yue. He had also seen Venerable Han Yue take action, so he was not unfamiliar with Venerable Han Yue's aura.

"It is the Dharmakāya of Venerable Han Yue!"

Feng Han immediately guessed the source of power for Zhuang Shou's incarnation attack.

Dharmakaya is the incarnation of the magical power of the Incarnation God.

Because of the restrictions imposed by heaven and earth on the Divine Transformation Master.

Therefore, most of the time, the Incarnation Master would stay in the secret realm attached to the human world. Even if he took action, he would only send his clones such as the Mana Incarnation to go.

only--

Feng Han really couldn't have imagined that he would be so unlucky as to run into Zhuang Shou, who possessed the "dharma body" of Venerable Han Yue, on his way out.

Logically speaking, the corruption case at the Panshi Mine was not enough to mobilize the "Dharma body" of Venerable Han Yue.

"Is it coming for me?"

At this moment, Feng Han had a lot of thoughts.

However, no matter what, at this moment, he and the Nascent Soul cultivators he asked for help would have to face the attack from Venerable Han Yue's "Dharma Body".

Although the power of the Divine Body is far inferior to that of the original body, its strength is so strong that it is not something that an ordinary Nascent Soul can resist.

In an instant, Feng Han and the other three monks who came to assist reached a consensus. The four of them immediately made hand gestures, spurted out a stream of Nascent Soul essence, and prepared to escape.

But unfortunately, at this moment, the formation they used to trap Palace Master Luo turned out to be a prison that prevented them from escaping.

Even though it was not difficult for them to escape from the formation, compared to the past, a difference of only half a breath was enough to be fatal.

pat!pat!
The red light that attacked them immediately turned into a huge red palm, which gently slapped the black formation light ball below.

In a flash, the previously unbreakable formation light ball dimmed, cracked and shattered.

"Puff!" The four men led by Feng Han, who were holding the formation, spat out blood and flew backwards like a broken leather bag.

With just one strike, not only were their escape techniques interrupted, but they were also seriously injured.

"Want to escape?" At this time, Palace Master Luo, who was bound by the formation, finally escaped. He removed the defensive magic weapon that was restricting his movements, sneered, and with a flash of light, he directly entangled a late Nascent Soul cultivator nearby and started fighting.

At this moment, Zhuang Shou, who was beside the "dharma body" of Venerable Han Yue, did not delay the opportunity to fight. He used the power of his dharma body again and wiped out the only middle-Nascent Soul cultivator in Feng Han's gang with one blow. Then, like Palace Master Luo, he looked for the late-Nascent Soul cultivator to fight.

At this time, it is not impossible for Zhuang Shou to continue to use the power of Venerable Han Yue to kill the rest of Feng Han's gang.

But in this way, he, Palace Master Luo, and Wei Tu would hardly get any credit.

Even the spoils of war had to be handed over to Venerable Han Yue afterwards.

——Even when Venerable Huashen dispatched his “Dharmakaya”, it was not without cost.

Now, there are three seriously injured late Nascent Soul cultivators, and there is just one for each of them.

……

After Zhuang Shou took action, Wei Tu, who had escaped, immediately came back.

On the other side, Palace Master Luo and Zhuang Shou surrounded Feng Han and the other two.

"Traitor?" Feng Han was furious when he saw Wei Tu. How could he not know that it was Wei Tu who deliberately deceived him and lured him into the trap, causing him to suffer the tragic situation today.

But just when he was about to yell at Wei Tu, he found that Wei Tu actually bypassed him and looked for someone else to attack.

Seeing this, Feng Han was slightly stunned and felt regretful. Then he realized that he must have wronged Wei Tu. After thanking Wei Tu in his heart, he prepared to take the opportunity to escape.

"It seems that this was a complete accident. As long as Wei Tu is loyal to me, I may be able to make a comeback and set up a trap again after he escapes."

Feng Han felt relieved.

Just now, what he was most worried about was that Wei Tu had deceived him from beginning to end, and that the ambush on Luo Guzhuo was a conspiracy, and that the Jishan Sect was trying to eliminate him.

But now, with Wei Tu’s “statement”, this conspiracy theory was naturally refuted.

only--

What Feng Han didn't know was.

Wei Tu didn't intend to let him go, but he was not the opponent chosen by Wei Tu this time.

——He had been blackmailed by Wei Tu. In Wei Tu's opinion, he was not wealthy now and it was not worth it for him to spend so many talismans and use financial resources to kill him.

In this case, the loss outweighs the gain.

Wei Tu calculates economic accounts.

The battlefield changed rapidly. From the time Feng Han set up the trap and besieged Palace Master Luo to now when Wei Tu bypassed Feng Han and looked for another opponent, only more than ten breaths had passed.

Therefore, apart from Feng Han, Palace Master Luo and Zhuang Shou did not think that Wei Tu had let Feng Han go, but only thought that he was carefully selecting his opponents.

After all, Wei Tu was the weakest among the three of them, and if he chose an unsuitable opponent, it would not be easy to win.

And Zhuang Shou, who has the help of Venerable Han Yue's Dharma body and a first-class escape speed, how could he let Feng Han go easily?

……

Counting breaths passed.

The three of them successfully divided the battlefield and turned the group battle into an individual battle.

"Jie! Jie! Jie!"

"Elder Wei, you are only in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, and you think you can deal with me? Be careful or you will be blinded by an eagle."

Wei Tu’s opponent is a fat male cultivator wearing a mask and a feather robe.

After seeing Wei Tu choose him as his opponent, he remained vigilant, but he was undoubtedly more calm than his teammates Feng Han and his two companions.

How could it be so easy to break through the chasm between realms?

Although Wei Tu had a record of fighting against Yin Mozi, in his opinion, that was just the result of Yin Mozi's attempt to protect himself, and was not a reflection of Wei Tu's true strength.

"A Yuanying of a different Dao in the late Yuanying stage, and a mountain-type magical weapon that is suspected to be of the fourth-order upper grade..."

The fat male cultivator recalled Wei Tu’s intelligence information in his mind.

He guessed that Wei Tu only had these two or three magical powers to deal with him. As long as he was careful, it would not be difficult to deal with Wei Tu.

At this moment, his real difficulty lies in how to escape successfully.

With the "dharma form" of Venerable Han Yue, it would not be easy for him to escape. If he was the first to stand out, he would most likely die on the spot.

"While Zhuang Shou and Luo Guzhuo are fighting, I can take the opportunity to escape." The fat male cultivator thought.

So, in the following battle, the fat male cultivator began to intentionally attract Wei Tu away from the battlefield between Zhuang Shou and Luo Guzhuo.

But something unexpected happened to the fat male cultivator.

This time, although Wei Tu used the same magical skills he had used when fighting Yin Mozi, his attack methods were mixed with many fourth-level talismans.

"By the way, this boy is also a fourth-level talisman master!"

The fat male cultivator had a slightly ugly look on his face. The Talisman Master was one of the most difficult to deal with among the many immortal cultivators.

Not only do talismans require no energy, they are also extremely powerful.

During the battle, the only thing lost was financial resources.

"Wait, this talisman?"

Just when the fat male cultivator was struggling to deal with the double attack of [Five Elements Infant] and [Wan Qingshan], he saw Wei Tu sacrifice a talisman of fourth-grade upper grade with a ray of spiritual light. His face suddenly changed and he became a little frightened.

He had seen this talisman from Feng Han before. It was called the "Golden Tripod Talisman" and was quite powerful.

The fat male cultivator was not afraid of just a "Golden Tripod Talisman".

But what he was afraid of was that Wei Tu had more than one "Golden Tripod Talisman" in his hand.

——If there were no restrictions on materials, it would be impossible for the talismans drawn by the talisman master to appear individually.

"Elder Wei, stop!"

"Let him go!"

At this time, Feng Han, who was fighting with Zhuang Shou, also noticed the "abnormality" on the battlefield on Wei Tu's side, so he shouted out quickly.

The words fell.

Wei Tu couldn't help but have a strange look on his face.

Could it be that even now, Feng Han still doesn't know that he is a traitor?
Asking him to stop would be a bit too far-fetched.

His hands kept moving. After giving Feng Han a cold look, his robes fluttered. He made a hand gesture and immediately sacrificed all the golden tripod talismans on his body.

next moment.

Seven golden tripod talismans shone brightly, condensing into a purple-gold giant tripod that was a hundred feet in size. They arranged themselves into shape and pressed towards the fat male cultivator on the sea.

Each golden tripod talisman is equivalent to a full-strength attack from a powerful cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.

Seven, meaning a full-strength attack from seven Nascent Soul late-stage powerhouses.

Let alone the fat male cultivator who was an ordinary Nascent Soul, even a Quasi-God-Transformation cultivator would find it difficult to withstand this attack.

Of course, Wei Tu’s move was not simply to kill the fat male cultivator, he had a deeper purpose.

That is to prove his worth to Jishan Sect.

Before this, his value to Sect Leader Zhu or Jishan Sect was his ability to set up a trap, lure out Feng Han, and thus quell the civil unrest.

But after Feng Han's death, this value naturally disappeared.

After this value disappears, it won't be as bad as all the birds and beasts are gone and the good bows are hidden, but it will obviously not do him any harm to appropriately display his talent and create another value that Master Zhu can rely on.

Before the value is exhausted, even the most evil person will not turn against you easily.

——It is impossible for Jishan Sect to reject a talented fourth-rank high-quality talisman master who wants to join their sect and hold a high position.

In the world of cultivating immortals, it is easy to find strong people in the late Nascent Soul stage, but it is hard to find craftsmen who have reached the fourth-level upper level of immortal skills.

Especially the talisman master who has a huge bonus to the sect’s combat power!

……

Seeing these many golden tripod talismans display their divine power.

Be it Feng Han, or Zhuang Shou, Palace Master Luo and the other three on the battlefield, they were all stunned.

Especially Feng Han.

At this moment, although Feng Han was furious when he saw Wei Tu using the benefits he gave him to kill his allies, he had to admit one thing - Wei Tu's talent as a talisman master was a little too high.

It was so high that he couldn't believe it.

He knew clearly that he only had a few years to give Wei Tu the method to make the Golden Tripod Talisman.

"This boy is beyond my reach."

Zhuang Shouyi thought to himself.

Before leaving Jishan Sect, he felt contempt and disdain for Wei Tu's background and the way he advanced in his career.

But now, he didn't dare to have the slightest disparaging thought.

It was because he knew very well how high Wei Tu's status would be in Jishan Sect after this battle.
