I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 640 Red Dragon Freedom, Soul Gu in the Brain (4k6, please subscribe)

"After two hundred years, I finally returned to the Great Cang Immortal Cultivation World."

A few days later, just after coming out of the secret realm of Zhaoming Dead Sea, the voice of the Red Dragon Ancestor rang in Wei Tu's mind.

The Red Dragon Patriarch's voice was filled with excitement. After all, since Wei Tu had returned to the Great Cang cultivation world, the time for him to be set free was not far away.

This was the result he had been waiting for for nearly five hundred years.

"After leaving Guixu Sea Cultivation Realm, Old Demon Zhu, you have become more talkative again. It seems that your spiritual power has recovered well during this period of time."

Hearing this, Wei Tu smiled and said.

In the nearly thirty years since he broke through to the God Transformation Realm, Old Ancestor Red Dragon has rarely spoken. It's not that Old Ancestor Red Dragon has suddenly become withdrawn, but that his soul has become extremely weak after following him for so many years, and is far inferior to what it used to be.

After all, when the Red Dragon Ancestor escaped from the hands of Priest Sang, he lost all his cultivation and was even forced to abandon his Nascent Soul.

Nearly five hundred years later, he is still able to survive in the Dragon Glass Pearl, which shows his amazing strength "before death".

It was also for this reason that after he became the disciple of Patriarch Chilong, he never forced Patriarch Chilong to reveal the whereabouts of the "Heavenly Ghost Seed" hidden by the Wanyin Sect.

Because, the "Heavenly Ghost Soul Seed" will most likely be the last resort for the Red Dragon Ancestor to continue his path.

"When I was in Jishan Sect, I had almost recovered with the help of your 'Soul-Fixing Pill'. However, I dare not say more because of Venerable Han Yue's presence."

The Red Dragon Patriarch replied in a slightly relaxed tone.

——The Soul-Fixing Pill was a fourth-grade elixir that Wei Tu had refined for him when he was in the late Nascent Soul stage to stabilize his soul.

"Once the matter at Shengya Mountain is over, I will find an opportunity to help you take over another body and reincarnate. This will save my master's wife from asking me about your whereabouts all the time."

After hesitating for a moment, Wei Tu gave the Red Dragon Ancestor a promise to let him go free.

"Master's wife?" Upon hearing this, the Red Dragon Patriarch couldn't help but secretly think that Wei Tu was an honest man. After being promoted to the God Transformation stage, he still hadn't forgotten their master-disciple relationship.

However, as for the identity of Wei Tu, the "host"'s" disciple... unlike Madam Jin, he did not dare to acknowledge him.

At first, he was worried about angering Wei Tu and risking being abandoned.

Now, it is the awe of the strong.

"What are your plans now? Are you going to Shengya Mountain first, or Yingding Tribe?" The Red Dragon Patriarch asked about Wei Tu's plan.

Not only are the main cultivation techniques of the demonic cultivators very different from those of the righteous cultivators, but they are also much calmer and more rational than the righteous cultivators in looking at problems.

According to his guess, now more than two hundred years have passed, under the "heavy pressure" of Shengya Mountain, the three great divine masters of Yingding tribe have either surrendered or have fallen apart and their clans have been wiped out.

Putting himself in Ding Lezheng's shoes, he would certainly use some means to control and monitor Ying Ding's troops, so as to curb the revenge of Wei Tu who was "at large".

Therefore, in terms of strategy, Wei Tu should first go to Shengya Mountain to rescue Wei Xiuwen and his son, and then go back to visit Ying Ding's tribe after everything is over.

However, if this is the case, if the three great divine masters of Yingding tribe still have feelings for Wei Tu, they might suffer losses in the process of Wei Tu rescuing Wei Xiuwen and his son.

It is easy to cause Wei Tu to fall into an unjust situation.

But on the other hand, if the Ding tribe responds first, then Shengya Mountain will definitely increase its supervision of Wei Xiuwen and his sons in the prison, as well as some members of the Wei family.

In this way, it will inevitably be more difficult for Wei Tu to successfully rescue Wei Xiuwen and his son.

But Wei Tu answered this choice decisively without any hesitation.

"Go to Yingding Department first."

he said.

"What? Go to Yingding Department first?"

The Red Dragon Patriarch was extremely surprised. He had always believed that Wei Tu acted in a demonic style. When did he act on his emotions?

"The people in Shengya Mountain didn't dare to kill Xiu Wen and Chang Shou. When I was cultivating overseas, they didn't dare. Now that I have achieved the state of transformation, they are even more afraid."

"The rescue is more difficult, but it's better than... watching the three great masters of the Yingding tribe die."

Wei Tu explained calmly.

The Yingding tribe had done him a favor, and the favor was quite a big one.

Back then, when he offended Taoist Liuyu, although the three great divine masters blamed him and believed that he had caused trouble for the Yingding tribe, they were not negligent when it came to helping him.

He was not the Tong Zun, so he could not repay the favor… The Ying Ding tribe was annihilated.

For some things, he could make choices calmly and rationally like the Red Dragon Ancestor, but for some things, he could not.

Back then, he asked Wei Changshou, the Right Wise King, to stay. Not only because the clan was in trouble and they needed someone to stand in the open and cover up their tracks, but he also didn't want the "sins of the Wei family" to be vented by Shengya Mountain on the Yingding tribe.

Now, if he rescues Wei Xiuwen and his son first for his own selfish reasons, it would go against his original intention.

"The worst outcome is that both sides take a step back and let go of their hatred."

Wei Tu said again.

The Spirit Transformation Realm is his biggest bargaining chip when he returns to the Da Cang cultivation world to deal with Shengya Mountain.

If we go forward, we can wipe out the people of Shengya Mountain and kill Ding Lezheng.

If they retreat, they can use this opportunity to negotiate with Shengyashan and both sides can live in peace.

Facing him who was in the Nascent Soul stage, Shengyashan could be overbearing and could imprison his son and grandson.

But facing him who is at the Spirit Transformation Realm, Shengyashan basically has no choice but to retreat.

After all, the number of Wei descendants who remained in the Great Cang cultivation world was no more than a few dozen at most, but the number of cultivators in and around Shengya Mountain was as high as tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

It's a fight to the death, and he doesn't suffer any loss at all.

Back then, before Ding Lezheng evolved into a god, he could make a "gentleman's agreement" with him. Now that they are both in the state of evolving into gods, it will not be difficult to renew this agreement.

……

Zhaoming Dead Sea is not far from Kangguo.

Soon, Wei Tu and Fu Zhizhou reached the Yingding tribe of Kang State and entered the "Hujie Fairy City" they were familiar with.

Almost the same as it was two hundred years ago, the Hujie Fairy City was still prosperous and not at all dilapidated.

Soon, the two of them learned some information about the disappearance of "Master Wei Shen" from the Immortal City.

According to the version circulated among the cultivators of the Yingding tribe, the reason why "Master Wei Shen" disappeared was because he mistakenly entered a secret realm and was unfortunately cursed and died within the secret realm.

As for the Right Wise King Wei Changshou, and his descendants, as the direct bloodline of Master Wei, were also implicated by the curse and died one by one.

This rumor could not withstand careful scrutiny by someone with ulterior motives, but it was enough to deceive the vast majority of people in the Yingding tribe.

As for whether the Yingding tribe was controlled and monitored by Shengya Mountain...

You can find out by simply asking.

After all, Shengyashan controlled and monitored Yingding's tribe in order to prevent revenge from a master like him, so how could they reveal their backup plan so blatantly?

The so-called surveillance and control is most likely at the level of the three great divine masters and will not be delegated to the Jindan realm to cause unrest in the Yingding tribe.

"Just go see Master Dulong and ask him."

Wei Tu frowned slightly and pondered.

Unlike the other two great divine masters, Divine Master Dulong, as the oldest divine master in the Yingding tribe, was about to die when he left the Yingding tribe.

Afterwards, even if you use the secret technique of prolonging life and extend your lifespan a little, it will not be too much.

Just like the ancestor of the Yu family back then, his life span could be extended by two to three hundred years at most before he would be on the verge of death again.

A dying person has no scruples.

Even if Shengyashan enslaved the divine master Dulong, it would be useless in the face of life and death.

Thinking of this, Wei Tu did not hesitate. He waved his sleeves, and a huge spiritual consciousness immediately penetrated his body and extended towards the Divine Master Dulong's Master's Mansion.

Soon, his spiritual consciousness penetrated the formation of Master Dulong's cave and came to Master Dulong's retreat room.

"Fellow Daoist Dulong, are you all right?"

The sound of this divine consciousness reached the retreat room, and Master Dulong, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, was instantly awakened. A look of shock appeared on his old face, and he looked out the door.

However, even though he spread his spiritual sense to the entire area of ​​Hujie Immortal City, he could not detect any trace of the owner of the spiritual voice he had just heard.

"Friend Wei? Is that you?"

Master Dulong regained his composure and asked.

More than three hundred years ago, Wei Tu had already broken through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and was ahead of the three great divine masters. Now, after two hundred years of absence, it was not unimaginable that Wei Tu had once again broken through to the "late stage of the Nascent Soul".

Only a Nascent Soul cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage could avoid his spiritual sense and the formation inspection of Hujie Immortal City.

"It's me, Daoist Fellow Dulong."

Wei Tu's voice once again passed through the cave formation and reached the ears of Master Dulong.

When Master Dulong heard this, there was no surprise on his face. He frowned, pointed at a talisman beside him, and then sealed his seven orifices.

The next moment, a word came out of nowhere.

"Friend Wei, hurry up! Ding Lezheng has planted a soul poison in my body. If you come over now, Ding Lezheng will definitely sense it. Run away!"

After he finished speaking, Master Dulong opened his seven orifices again, but there was a look of confusion on his face at this moment, as if he had just erased his memory.

See this scene.

Wei Tu, who was on the street, couldn’t help but feel a little moved.

Although he also knew that this move was more of a reflection of Master Dulong's saying "When a man is about to die, his words are good."

If he had lived longer, he might not have taken such a risky action.

But... let's judge by the deeds, not the heart.

When many monks are about to die, it is not that their words are "good", but that their words are "even worse".

Everyone has jealousy in their heart.

If Master Dulong had a more evil heart, he would probably think: Why does he have such good talent and great potential and can achieve immortality, while I have to endure aging and be forced to die?

"Fellow Daoist Dulong, don't worry. With Wei here, you don't have to be afraid of Ding Lezheng."

Wei Tu flicked his sleeves and instantly appeared in front of Master Dulong. He bowed and said solemnly.

Upon seeing this scene, Master Dulong, who had just erased his memory, was stunned. He was about to tell Wei Tu to escape immediately, but as he glanced around and saw the "note left behind" in the room whose spiritual energy had dissipated, a look of astonishment immediately appeared on his face.

Based on his previous arrangements, it is not difficult to see that Wei Tu already knew that Ding Lezheng had planted the "Soul Gu" in him, but still chose to come to him and meet him.

"Don't be afraid of Ding Lezheng... Fellow Daoist Wei, do you know what realm Ding Lezheng is in now?"

After coming to his senses, Master Dulong couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He had to admit that Wei Tu's strength was now far ahead of his, but only two hundred years had passed, and no matter how much Wei Tu's strength could grow, how far could it grow?
At the Nascent Soul level, even at the late Nascent Soul stage, one move from Ding Lezheng, the Divine Transformation Master, is all he can deal with.

The difference in realm is like a chasm.

A Nascent Soul cultivator is merely an old ancestor of a region, whereas a Spiritual Transformation cultivator is already a god of the lower realm, shepherding the people on behalf of Heaven.

"It's just a transformation into a god."

Hearing this, Wei Tu nodded and said lightly.

After he finished speaking, he didn't keep anyone in suspense any longer. He simply waved his sleeves and released his divine power.

"what?"

"Fellow Daoist Wei, have you also become a god? No wonder, no wonder Fellow Daoist Wei is not afraid of Ding Lezheng..."

Under the fierce impact of Wei Tu's divine pressure, Master Du Long turned pale and broke out in cold sweat. He felt that he would be killed with just a wave of Wei Tu's hand.

However, although he was feeling physically and mentally uncomfortable, he was extremely excited and happy at the moment.

The state of transformation of spirits is something that is beyond his reach.

Now that Wei Tu has reached this stage, as long as he takes care of the Yingding tribe a little in the future, the Yingding tribe will be able to transform into a Yuanying clan, comparable to the big sects like Shengya Mountain.

"Dulong has met Venerable Wei."

After a while, when Wei Tu had put away his divine power, Master Du Long stood up from the cushion. He straightened the robe beside him and bowed to Wei Tu.

Secular, seniority-based.

In the world of immortality, the strong are respected.

If Wei Tu was only at the Nascent Soul stage, he would have dared to call Wei Tu "Friend Wei Daoist" by taking advantage of his seniority, but now, Wei Tu's realm was the Spirit Transformation stage... The gap between him and Wei Tu was really too big.

There is a huge gap!

He knew that with Wei Tu's character, he would never care about these people with false reputations, but he had to show the right attitude.

"Fellow Daoist Dulong."

Wei Tu did not resist and accepted the gift.

However, he also solemnly returned the salute to Master Dulong and kept addressing Master Dulong unchanged.

No rules no standards.

Your Excellency should have the dignity of a Honorable Person.

But at the same time, we should also show respect to charitable elderly people.

"Thank you, Venerable Wei."

Hearing this familiar name, Master Dulong felt warm in his heart. He stroked his beard and calmly accepted Wei Tu's greeting.

Next.

Wei Tu did not waste any time. He stopped greeting the Divine Master Dulong and began to cast a spell to remove the soul poison planted by Ding Lezheng from the Divine Master Dulong's soul.

Although this soul poison is tricky, it is only troublesome for Nascent Soul cultivators. For a Spiritualization Venerable, this soul poison is just a Nascent Soul method and is not difficult to remove.

After a while, as Wei Tu emitted a green light in his hand, a transparent insect as thin as a hair, which was difficult to be seen by the mind or the eyes, flew out from between the eyebrows of Master Dulong.

After he injected several spells into it, the transparent little insect let out a wail and exploded to death.

After its self-explosion, wisps of soul came out of the transparent little insect and returned to the body of Master Dulong.

Seeing that the soul Gu had been resolved, Wei Tu stood up and began to walk towards the door, intending to remove the "soul Gu" in the bodies of Hedi Divine Master and Donglai Divine Master before Ding Lezheng could react.

But unexpectedly...

Just as Wei Tu was about to leave, Master Dulong stopped him and bowed down.

"I have an unwelcome request, and I hope that Venerable Wei can agree to it."

Divine Master Dulong said respectfully.

Seeing this, Wei Tu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and hurriedly asked Master Dulong what unreasonable request he had.

"Hedi and Donglai... were forced by Ding Lezheng's divine transformation, so it is inevitable that they will go astray. If the two of them have offended Venerable Wei, please forgive them."

Master Dulong sighed.

Upon hearing this, Wei Tu suddenly realized that this was Master Dulong preparing him in advance to prevent him from seeing Master Hedi and Master Donglai betray him and then killing them out of anger.

"Fellow Daoist Hedi and Fellow Daoist Donglai are not my appendages. In order to protect themselves, it is not wrong to choose the path of survival."

Wei Tu replied in a natural tone.

The reason why he went to find Master Dulong first to inquire about the recent situation was because he did not trust Master Hedi and Master Donglai very much.

I have been mentally prepared for this.

Now, even if Master Dulong did not plead for mercy to these two people, he would not blame them too much.

After all, the fact that he "abandoned" the Yingding tribe and left was not necessarily more noble than the Hedi Divine Master and the Donglai Divine Master.

He even did not hesitate to make cold-blooded guesses.

After being controlled and monitored by Shengya Mountain, the three Divine Masters Dulong, Hedi, and Donglai might have secretly discussed it, with the old and weak Divine Master Dulong standing on his side, and the young Divine Masters Hedi and Donglai standing on Shengya Mountain's side...

Betting in batches is the way for a force to survive.

"That's good……"

Master Dulong didn't know what Wei Tu was thinking. When he saw that Wei Tu agreed to this matter, he felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

He is just an old man. Hedi and Donglai are the real hope of Yingding tribe.
