I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 636: The Celebration of the Transformation of Gods, Arrogant at First and Respectful Later (5k, please subscribe)

However, just as Wei Tu got the "Ten Thousand Bloods Transforming into Crows Escape Technique" and was about to leave after saying thanks, Venerable Han Yue called him from behind.

"I wonder when Junior Brother Wei plans to hold the God Transformation Ceremony?" asked Venerable Han Yue.

"God Transformation Ceremony?"

Wei Tu frowned. Now there were only less than six years left until the "Hundred and Five Divine Transformation" time agreed upon by him and Fu Zhizhou. Taking into account the time to switch to practicing the Blood Escape Technique, he was very pressed for time and had no time to hold the Divine Transformation Ceremony.

However, unlike him, the Spirit Transformation Ceremony was a very important event for the Jishan Sect.

He couldn't shirk it easily.

First, this is a great opportunity for the Jishan Sect to publicize its military power and intimidate affiliated and hostile forces.

Secondly, it is difficult to establish a sect without a name. If the Jishan Sect does not use the Transformation Ceremony to spread the reputation of "One Sect, Two Masters", how can it attract more high-quality immortal seedlings from the outside world who want to become disciples?

This matter is a big deal, but it concerns the foundation of Jishan Sect.

Thirdly, this grand event will also allow the Jishan Sect to collect a large amount of gifts and make a lot of money.

In the past, other gods of the six sects of Xuan Dao had all held gods of transformation ceremonies after achieving the gods of transformation.

Now, if he doesn't hold it, he won't be able to get back the gifts that Jishan Sect sent him before, which will be a huge loss.

He had just asked for a benefit from Venerable Han Yue, so it would be inappropriate for him to refuse this matter now.

"How about in five years?"

Wei Tu thought for a moment and discussed.

Five years later, he would probably be able to completely transform "Cursed Demon Blood Escape" into "Ten Thousand Crows Blood Escape".

At that time, after the God Transformation Ceremony is completed, you can go directly to Wulao Mountain to meet Fu Zhizhou, return to the Da Cang immortal world, and attack Shengya Mountain.

This way, it won't delay him for long.

Secondly, the God Transformation Ceremony can not only bring wealth to the Jishan Sect, but also bring wealth to him, the "poor God Transformation".

When he was promoted to the God Transformation Realm this time, he not only borrowed thousands of spirit crystals on credit from Luqiu Qingfeng, but also mortgaged his elixirs, magic tools and other items from the Chamber of Commerce in the market town near Jishan Sect and borrowed some spirit crystals at high interest.

Although, with his current strength, these chambers of commerce did not dare to ask him for the debts owed, he did not want to ruin his reputation just because of this matter.

"Five years is certainly feasible."

Venerable Han Yue nodded slightly and agreed.

Five years is enough for Jishan Sect to notify all major forces in the Guixu Sea cultivation world to come and participate in the God Transformation Ceremony, and no gift from any force will be missed.

"Besides that, I still need to explain some of the rules of the Spiritual Transformation Ceremony to Junior Brother Wei..."

Next, Venerable Han Yue and Wei Tu talked about the specific division of benefits from the gifts received at this God Transformation Ceremony.

All spiritual objects below the fourth level belong to the Jishan Sect.

Of course, Wei Tu can specify which disciples should receive these spiritual objects first.

For spiritual objects above the fourth level, Jishan Sect and Weitu will split the profits in a 30:70 ratio, with 70% going to Weitu and the rest to the sect.

"Does Junior Brother Wei have any opinion on this?"

Venerable Han Yue looked at Wei Tu with a smile and asked.

A person’s character can be best seen when they share the cake.

Spiritual objects below the fourth level may seem to have no value to a Spiritual Transformation Venerable, but among the gifts, this type of object is the most numerous, and when accumulated, it is not a small amount.

For spiritual objects above the fourth level, although the rule of Jishan Sect is to split the gifts 70% to 30%, in the minds of some Divine Transformation Venerables, these gifts originally belonged to them, so how could there be any talk of the sect sharing the profits?
Venerable Han Yue awaited Wei Tu's answer.

"Wei has no objection."

Soon, Wei Tu responded.

Hearing this, Venerable Han Yue nodded secretly, and labeled Wei Tu as a person who "knows when to advance and when to retreat" in his heart.

This label was also his judgment of Wei Tu's character when Wei Tu approached him for "exchange of ideas" before.

But then, after hearing Wei Tu's next words, his eyes lit up and he began to truly recognize Wei Tu, his "new junior brother".

"This God Transformation Ceremony is organized by the sect, so it is already a waste. Moreover, if Junior Brother did not have the Jishan Sect behind him... even if he achieved the God Transformation, there would probably be very few people who would come to celebrate!"

Wei Tu said so.

……

Five years passed in a flash.

Soon, the day of Wei Tu's deification ceremony arrived.

In the inner sea of ​​Guixu Sea, near the "Tianyuan Islands" where the Jishan Sect is located, there is an endless stream of cultivators coming from all directions, converging towards the gate of the Jishan Sect like a swarm of carp crossing the river.

In the sky, all kinds of birds and beasts, cloud boats and chariots can be seen everywhere, with colorful lights flying around among the auspicious clouds.

Among the various forces that came to visit, the cloud car marked with the "Xiao Huan Palace" flag was slowly driving above the clouds. The passing forces all avoided it and dared not look any longer.

This is the domineering nature of the Six Sects of Xuan Dao.

However, what the other cultivators did not know was that inside the cloud chariot, Tong Zunzhe's eldest disciple Xu Wansun and fourth disciple Dugu Tian did not display the usual arrogance as the Zunzhe's disciples. Instead, they were sitting cross-legged facing each other with worried looks on their faces.

This time, the two of them went to Jishan Sect to pay a visit to Wei Tu, the Divine Transformation Master who had a "grudge" against them. One can imagine the pressure in their hearts.

One was the executioner who personally slaughtered all of Luqiu Yeming's descendants.

One is the instigator who refused to accept Wei Tu's friendly apology and insisted on making Luqiu Qingfeng and the Luqiu clan pay the price.

If Wei Tu got furious and refused to accept the apology, the two of them might die on the spot and wouldn't even be able to return to Xiaohuan Palace.

"I regret it."

Dugu Tian sighed heavily. If he had accepted Wei Tu and Luqiu Qingfeng’s apologies earlier, things would not have come to this point.

After all, he was just being too arrogant.

At that time, he was able to see the sincerity of Wei Tu's apology.

Now, a hundred years have passed, and he, who was once high and mighty, has come to apologize. He is rude at first but respectful later... He is almost no different from the clown in the vernacular novels.

"Big Brother, do you think Wei Tu will accept our apologies?" Dugu Tian asked.

Hearing this, Xu Wansun did not reply immediately. He shook his head and remained silent.

After a moment, he forced a smile and said, "With Master's handwritten letter, Venerable Wei should give Master a favor and forgive you and me."

"Venerable Wei will not become an enemy of Xiao Huan Palace just for a woman!"

"Even if it fails, it won't kill you or me... It would be embarrassing in front of all the cultivators."

Having said that, Xu Wansun's words became much more serious, as if that was what he was thinking.

No strong man would be so unwise as to offend a cultivator of the same level for a mere concubine.

"That's how it should be."

Dugu Tian nodded, forcing himself to believe this reason and stay calm.

However, after the cloud car had traveled for a while, his next words completely exposed his true thoughts.

"Big Brother, that is the emblem of the Luqiu clan. The person sitting in that flying boat should be the King of Luqiu. If you and I ask him to intercede for us, this disaster may be avoided!"

Dugu Tian said in a slightly flustered tone.

Upon hearing this, Xu Wansun frowned at first. After all, after he slaughtered the Luqiu Yeming lineage, he had already formed a mortal enemy with the Luqiu clan, so it was not appropriate for him to ask the Luqiu Human King for help.

But...what Dugu Tian said does make sense.

If there was a relative of Luqiu Renwang who could lobby for Luqiu Qingfeng, this disaster might have been avoided.

"Stop the flying boat of the King of Luqiu!"

Xu Wansun immediately gave an order, ordering the disciple who was guarding the cloud chariot to turn the rudder and fly towards the flying boat of the Luqiu clan.

A moment later, after a fierce chase.

The cloud car with the flag of Xiaohuan Palace blocked the flying boat of the Luqiu clan.

"Brother Ren Wang, do you still recognize Xu?"

Xu Wansun flew out of the cloud chariot and bowed to the flying boat of the Luqiu clan with a smile on his face.

The words fell.

There was no echo from the Luqiu clan's flying boat.

Seeing this, Xu Wansun's smile froze. He narrowed his eyes and said in a colder voice, "Brother Ren Wang, do you still recognize me? I am the eldest disciple of Master Tong!"

He spoke the second half of the sentence in a very serious tone.

His meaning was very simple. The King of Luqiu might not give him face, but he had to give face to Master Tong.

however--

This time, Xu Wansun made a mistake.

The flying boat he blocked in front of still did not respond, but instead flashed a flash of light and passed directly by him, treating him as air.

See this scene.

The smile, or even the sneer, on Xu Wansun's face froze. He slowly clenched his hands, which were hidden by the corners of his sleeves, and a sinister look appeared in his eyes... After a moment, as the flying boat behind him sailed farther and farther away, he flicked his sleeves and escaped back into the cloud car.

"If you don't recognize me today, I will let you, the Luqiu clan, get to know me well someday!"

After kneeling down beside Dugu Tian again, Xu Wansun snorted coldly and thought silently in his heart that he had made up his mind to kill the King of Luqiu after this God Transformation Ceremony.

It was not difficult for him to see that the reason why the King of Luqiu dared to be rude to him was simply because he thought that with Wei Tu as his relative, there was no need to worry too much about Xiao Huan Palace's opinion.

But in the same way... the King of Luqiu who put on airs against him was also greatly offended by Master Tong, so if he took revenge on him afterwards, his master Master Tong would not stop him at all.

……

A few hours later.

The cloud chariot landed outside the mountain gate of Jishan Sect. Xu Wansun and Dugu Tian, ​​as messengers of Xiaohuan Palace, walked towards Linglu Peak, the venue for the God Transformation Ceremony.

Linglu Peak is the location of the Jishan Sect’s Merit Hall.

After Wei Tu attained enlightenment and became a deity, because the head of the Hall of Merit had not been decided for many years, this sacred peak was regarded as Wei Tu's "private property" and was designated as the venue for the deification ceremony.

"Tiandu Sect leader Changyi congratulates Venerable Wei on his successful transformation into a god and attaining the realm of a venerable. I have come to congratulate you with three red iron divine stones."

Xu Wansun and the other person, who were at the foot of the mountain, heard the name being called from the hall on the top of the mountain from afar.

At this moment, although their expressions were calm, a hint of envy could not help but appear in their eyes.

The Red Iron Divine Stone is ranked fourth, and is an excellent spiritual object for making fourth-grade top-quality magical instruments.

Even though they are disciples of the Venerable, they still have to pay a huge price to obtain it.

And now, this treasure was taken by Wei Tu as just an ordinary gift?

If it was any other venerable, that would be fine.

But it was obvious that Wei Tu was a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage just like them before.

Yes, up to now, Xu Wansun and Dugu Tian have still not accepted in their hearts that Wei Tu, who was of lower status than them, broke through and advanced to the God Transformation realm, becoming an untouchable God Transformation master in their eyes.

"Go ahead."

Xu Wansun and Dugu Tian took a deep breath, looked at each other, flew to the front of the mountain hall, and walked in.

However, as soon as the two of them entered.

The previously noisy interior of the hall suddenly became silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The cultivators from the six Xuan Dao sects who were sitting in the front row looked at them with amusement on their faces.

The monks from ordinary forces sitting in the back row lowered their heads silently, not daring to pry too much.

Obviously, after the time when Venerable Wei personally welcomed Lüqiu Qingfeng out of prison and promised her the title of "second wife", everyone knew about the conflict between them and Venerable Wei.

For Luqiu Qingfeng, this contradiction was a blood feud that could lead to the extermination of his entire clan.

To Wei Tu, it may not be that important, but this ambiguous attitude is the most fatal.

It was so deadly...it was difficult for them to tear their faces off and become enemies directly, so they had no choice but to apologize first.

But when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

"Xu Wansun, a disciple of the Venerable Xiaohuan Palace, has come to congratulate me with a bottle of 'Eternal Golden Pill', a map of the two islands, and a letter personally written by my master."

Xu Wansun gritted his teeth and recited it word by word.

After he finished speaking, he held up the tray with the gift in both hands, slowly lowered his head, and handed it in the direction of Wei Tu.

The words fell.

All the cultivators fell silent and looked up at Wei Tu and Luqiu Qingfeng who were sitting on the main seats.

This time, the gift sent by Xiaohuan Palace was very valuable.

Hengjindan is a fourth-grade high-quality elixir that can significantly increase the cultivation of cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage.

And the map of the two islands... is even more amazing.

This is Xiaohuan Palace expressing its willingness to donate two spiritual islands.

If they were Lord Wei, they would probably immediately agree to Xiao Huan Gong's apology.

There is no other reason. The resources provided by Xiaohuan Palace are enough to cultivate a new quasi-god-level powerful person.

only……

How could the hatred of killing one's father and exterminating one's clan be resolved so easily?

Thinking of this, all the cultivators used the corner of their eyes to silently observe Luqiu Qingfeng's facial expression, wanting to see what this princess of the Luqiu clan, who was favored by Venerable Wei, was thinking.

However, it was different from what the cultivators imagined.

At this moment, Luqiu Qingfeng was not blinded by anger. She was communicating with Wei Tu very calmly, asking him about his specific plans, whether to accept the apology or refuse it.

"What is your plan, my husband?"

"I'm here, everything is fine."

Luqiu Qingfeng expressed his opinion.

Before this, she had told Wei Tu that she didn't care much about the death of her biological father, Luqiu Yeming.

In her heart: getting married is the duty of a princess, but being indifferent to the death of her biological father is also her right as a princess!
But in fact, she was not as indifferent as she said. After all, the dead were her biological father, as well as their brothers, sisters, and descendants.

However, from the moment Wei Tu personally welcomed her out of prison, she had already put Wei Tu first in her heart, besides her, or even including her.

in short--

Wei Tu’s interests are greater than the interests of her clan.

Therefore, if accepting Xiao Huan Gong's apology is beneficial to Wei Tu, she will not have any dissatisfaction.

"Xiao Huan Palace must be targeted!"

Wei Tu shook his head and replied calmly.

Before this, the reason why he had identified Master Tong as his enemy in front of all the practitioners of Jishan Sect was very simple.

It is to force the Jishan faction to take sides, unite against external forces, and then form a community of interests with him to reduce the chances of internal strife.

And now, in addition to this reason, it is also related to the approval of Venerable Han Yue.

——The Jishan Sect, which has two masters, is in urgent need of an opponent. While expanding its own interests, it can also reduce the hostility of other sects among the six sects of Xuandao.

Because they have an opponent, the other six sects of Xuan Dao, thinking of "reaping the benefits of being a fisherman", will not unite to target Jishan Sect.

In other words, if there were no Xiaohuan Palace, the Jishan Sect would create a new opponent in the near future.

Now, Xiaohuan Palace has "jumped" out, which is just in time and appropriate.

"My concubine understands."

Luqiu Qingfeng nodded, and understood a little.

……

As time passes slowly.

The atmosphere in the hall became increasingly quiet.

Xu Wansun and Dugu Tian, ​​who bowed their heads in courtesy, felt their hearts sink in their stomachs.

until--

A sound like a silver bell appeared.

"I heard that when Fellow Daoist Xu came to Jishan Sect this time, he stopped the flying boat of the Luqiu clan and said: Brother Ren Wang, do you know me? I am the eldest disciple of Master Tong."

This voice immediately frightened Xu Wansun and Dugu Tian.

The two did not expect that after waiting for such a long time, what they waited for was not the words of their host "Zhengzhe Wei", but the questioning words of Luqiu Qingfeng.

"This matter...this matter..."

Xu Wansun broke out in cold sweat and was speechless.

The most important thing about an apology is sincerity.

He came to Jishan Sect to apologize this time, actually to apologize for accidentally offending Venerable Wei... As for whether the Luqiu clan had any opinions or not, he and Xiao Huan Gong didn't care much.

But in the eyes of outsiders, Wei Tu and the Luqiu clan are now almost bound together. His threat to the Luqiu clan means that his apology this time is almost insincere.

In this way, Venerable Wei naturally stood on the moral high ground, and now it became feasible for him to accept the apology from Xiaohuan Palace or not.

Accepting it shows the magnanimity of Venerable Wei.

If they don't accept it, it means that he and Xiao Huan Gong are not sincere.

"Damn it, how come Lvqiu Qingfeng and Wei Tu are so smart that they caught my slip of the tongue directly."

Xu Wansun couldn't help but curse in his heart, and at the same time he hated the King of Luqiu who reported to Wei Tu and Luqiu Qingfeng.

However, at this moment, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction in front of Wei Tu.

If he were to misbehave in front of the palace and offend the Venerable, Wei Tu would execute him in public, and even his master, Venerable Tong, would be unable to refute him at all.

He forced a smile, and his eyes found the seat where the Luqiu Renwang was sitting. He bowed and apologized, "It was Xu who lost my manners earlier. I hope... Brother Renwang, please don't blame me."

As soon as these words were spoken, this attitude of being rude at first but respectful later made all the monks in the hall laugh secretly.

Two hours ago.

Xu Wansun stopped the flying boat of the King of Luqiu and forced him to ask if he knew him.

Two hours later.

This eldest disciple of Master Tong was forced to apologize under the questioning of Lüqiu Qingfeng.

This boy seems to be high and mighty, but in front of Venerable Wei, after peeling off the skin of the Venerable's disciple, he is no better than an ordinary person.
