I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 693: By mistake, refining spiritual armor (4k4, please subscribe)

"Not to the point of death..."

Hearing this, Wei Tu's eyes narrowed slightly, he looked at Qi Yaoxian deeply, then nodded slowly, indicating that he agreed to this agreement.

Although the inner area of ​​the corpse-sinking evil land is dangerous, with the protective spiritual armor of Master Iron Turtle, he is ready for both offense and defense. His combat power is enough to be among the best. In a short period of time, he can also rival a mid-stage Spirit Transformation Realm and fight against him.

In this case, taking a little risk is feasible.

Besides, this was just an agreement, not an oath. The key now was to pretend to be submissive and get the "Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma", so he could not hesitate.

"Your promise, fellow Daoist, is a little insincere."

Qi Yaoxian smiled slightly and did not give up, ignoring Wei Tu's "reluctance".

"I hope that Fellow Daoist Wen will trust me. This is also a great opportunity for you."

"Fellow Daoist Wen was able to escape from the pursuit of Old Man Hidden Ghost and Lord Jile Shen Hou. I... will not be arrogant and offend Fellow Daoist Wen, and bring enemies to my Xianling Dao."

She said in a sincere tone.

Hearing this, Wei Tu remained silent. Before he revealed his state of transformation, he had accomplished the brilliant feat of escaping from the hands of the Lord of Bliss, but he was still secretly wanted by the Xianling Dao.

But at this moment, Qi Yaoxian expressed her opinion again, and he couldn't just ignore it.

Moreover, this is also an opportunity for him to take the initiative.

He groaned for a moment, flipped his palm, took out a jade slip, and threw it to the phantom of Qi Yaoxian in front of him.

"This is the way to contact me. In the next twenty years, as long as Fellow Daoist Qi contacts me, I will come here to keep the appointment."

"Hmm... Xuanyan Market of Jianhuo Palace, it seems that Fellow Daoist Wen and that old lunatic have some friendship." Qi Yaoxian's shadow took the jade slip, looked at it for a few seconds, and a fierce look appeared on his face at first, and then returned to normal.

The four sects in the Central Region are not a monolithic entity.

The Xianling Dao and the Yanhuang Sect are allies, but they are hostile to the Jianhuo Palace and the Shengfo Temple.

Wei Tu chose the Jianhuo Palace as the contact location, and his meaning was self-evident.

"Maybe." Wei Tu replied calmly, and it was difficult to tell anything from his face.

"Okay, the agreement is reached! I hope that Fellow Daoist Wen will not break this agreement, otherwise... no matter how easy-going I am, I will be forced to become a bad person because of this matter."

After a moment, Qi Yaoxian smiled, and she tapped the formation of the secret medicine garden with her bare hands a few times. The projected shadow disappeared immediately, leaving only the secret medicine garden in the swamp, which was protected by the formation and full of spiritual energy.

Seeing this scene, Wei Tu did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward to pick the "Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma" in the medicine garden and put this treasure into his pocket.

However, he did not exhaust all the resources.

After taking away the mature "Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma", the rest of the elixirs were not taken away without permission.

Before he fell out with Qi Yaoxian, he still had to be considerate of the woman's reputation and could not leave her alone.

……

the other side.

Central Region, the back mountain of Xianlingdao.

Qi Yaoxian, who took the initiative to dismantle the projection formation, suddenly lost the smile on his face and his eyes became deeper.

The Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma was not so important to her that she could not give it up. What really mattered to her was that she was suddenly tricked by Wei Tu and suffered "humiliation".

"Go check! Who leaked the location of my sect's secret medicine garden? Kill them all! Exterminate all three clans."

She waved her sleeves and called over the head of the Xianling Sect. She looked at him coldly and gave an order.

The location of the secret medicine garden is only known to the top leaders of Xianling Dao, and it is difficult for outsiders to know it.

She didn't think that Wei Tu, who had fled from the South Region to the Central Region, happened to run to the evil land of sunken corpses and happened to find the secret medicine garden of the Immortal Spirit Path...

This matter can only be explained by the word "traitor".

However, just after giving the order, Qi Yaoxian suddenly remembered something. She moved her mind and used her magic power to stop the leader of the Xianling Dao.

"Forget it, let's not judge by appearances. We can investigate the traitor in secret. There's no need to kill anyone."

"No need?"

As soon as the words fell, the head of the Xianling Dao was shocked. He couldn't believe that the ancestor who was usually decisive in killing people would be indecisive today and treat the traitor kindly.

But soon, he understood.

There are only a dozen or so people in the world who can make the ancestor "look at the Buddha instead of the monk".

The master of this traitor must be a divine master.

"Yes, old man."

"My nephew understands."

The head of Xianling Dao nodded in response and prepared to withdraw.

But just as he was leaving, he suddenly thought of something, and bowed to Qi Yaoxian, saying, "Ancestor, my sect has already found out where Wen Tianqi is. Fourteen days ago, Wen Tianqi appeared near Mingshan Market, and had an in-depth exchange with the market owner, Kou Sun."

"And, double happiness."

"When investigating Wen Tianqi, my sect was also near the mountain gate and had an unexpected gain. We found a cultivator from Dingling Sect."

The head of Xianling Dao asked for credit with a look of delight.

Previously, the "wanted order for Wen Tianqi" was just a casual attempt by the Xianling Dao, but after Wei Tu showed up in Mingshan Market, the matter became the top priority of the Xianling Dao.

Although Wen Tianqi is not a child with gold now, the treasures on him are enough to attract the envy of the immortals after weighing the pros and cons.

But what disappointed the leader of Xianlingdao was...

Qi Yaoxian was not too moved when she heard this, as if she had already known it.

"There is no need to investigate this matter any further. Cancel the internal wanted notice for Wen Tianqi. Also... there is no need to monitor or disturb these Dingling Sect monks."

Soon, Qi Yaoxian issued an order that was difficult for the leader of Xianlingdao to understand.

It is understandable that Wen Tianqi is not wanted.

After all, it is not easy to capture a quasi-god-transforming cultivator unless the ancestor takes action personally.

But he didn't even monitor the monks of Dingling Sect...

Is it necessary to do this?

When did Xianlingdao become so weak?

"Could it be..." Immediately, a guess that seemed almost absurd to the leader of the Xianling Sect arose in his mind.

——Wen Tianqi is the one who stole the medicine.

Only this speculation can explain all this.

As a descendant of the former high-ranking members of the sect, Kou Sun did have a good chance of knowing the sect's secrets and the secret medicine garden that Xianlingdao had secretly set up in the evil land of sunken corpses.

"If he is just a newly promoted god, with the ancestor's strength, why should we give him face?"

The head of Xianling Dao opened his mouth and spoke in a hoarse voice.

In his opinion, the monks of Dingling Sect hiding near the gate of Xianlingdao Mountain were ready-made hostages and weak points.

Even if this is not used to threaten Wen Tianqi to hand over the valuables on him, it should be more than enough to ask him to hand over the "Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma" in the sect.

Moreover, this matter also falls into the realm of immortality.

"You are quite clever. You have guessed who this incarnation is with just a few words."

Qi Yaoxian was not surprised to hear this. The leader of Xianling Dao was second only to her and was busy with all kinds of affairs. If he couldn't even guess this, he would not be worthy of being the leader.

"But unfortunately, you guessed that Wen Tianqi was a Transformation Master, but you didn't guess that he was not a Transformation Master from the Dingling Sect..."

Qi Yaoxian shook her head.

If possible, she also wanted to threaten Wei Tu with hostages and force him to hand over the Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma.

But she knew that shallow waters could not raise a true dragon, and a mere Dingling Sect could not produce a Divine Transformation cultivator. That was just an identity used by Wei Tu, the Divine Transformation cultivator of the Taizhen Sect.

Even if she killed all the members of Dingling Sect, it would be difficult for Wei Tu to be moved or give in.

If he really cared, why would Wei Tu let the monks of Dingling Sect hide near the gate of Xianlingdao Mountain?

……

Wei Tu, who was still lying in the evil land of corpses, had no idea that his nonsense had inadvertently resolved a crisis for the monks of Dingling Sect.

However, although he didn't know, the result of this action was intentional on his part.

Just as Qi Yaoxian thought, if he was threatened with the Dingling Sect monks as hostages, he would not give in at all.

He and the monks of Dingling Sect did not have such a deep emotional bond, but he had a little conscience and did not want the sect to be destroyed because of him.

"Now, Qi Yaoxian and I have an agreement, which is considered an alliance. With this relationship, Dingling Sect can be guaranteed to be safe even if it is discovered under the eyes of the Immortal Spirit Dao..."

"So, the most urgent task now is not to meet the Dingling Sect monks and reminisce about the past. Instead, it is to refine the Nine-aperture Golden Ganoderma as soon as possible in the next twenty years to improve our cultivation... and to refine Master Tiegui's protective spiritual armor into a spiritual treasure."

After picking the Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma, Wei Tu left the depths of the swamp. While flying, he was thinking about the future.

Originally, according to his plan, after stealing the Nine-Aperture Golden Ganoderma, he would leave the evil land of sunken corpses and go to the Xianling Road to meet Fu Zhizhou, Wen Changying and others.

But after this incident, his time was undoubtedly much more pressing.

Regardless of whether you decide to go to the appointment.

These twenty years are a critical period for his strength growth and should not be wasted too much.

The "Xuanyan Market" of the Jianhuo Palace is located to the south and north of the Xianlingdao Mountain Gate, and is quite far away from each other.

After thinking about this, Wei Tu no longer hesitated. With a flash of light, he flew straight to Xuanyan Market.

This trip to Xuanyan Market, in addition to staying away from Qi Yuyao and not meeting this woman too often, is also closely related to the underground fire veins in Xuanyan Market.

——The underground fire vein of Xuanyanfang City possesses one of the few fifth-level underground fires in the Great Yan cultivation world.

Only with the help of the power of this fifth-order earth fire can he quickly dissolve Master Iron Turtle's protective spiritual armor and refine it into a spiritual treasure that the cultivator can control as he wishes.

Otherwise, even if his infant fire was spewed out for hundreds of years, it might not be able to refine the turtle shell.

Half a month later.

Wei Tu's escape light faded and he landed on a piece of scorched earth emitting a blazing heat.

Unlike ordinary markets, Xuanyan Market is extremely hot because of the existence of the fifth-level earth fire vein. Even foundation-building cultivators find it difficult to withstand such heat.

Only Jindan cultivators can stay here for a long time.

Therefore, this place did not become a fairy city due to the thriving population due to the underground fire veins, but just became a medium-sized market town.

"Huh? Gong Shulan?" Not long after landing, when Wei Tu was scanning Xuanyan Market with his spiritual sense, he soon saw this old friend on the street of the market.

The woman was wearing a straw hat and a black skirt. She was walking with a man and a woman, and they were having a pleasant conversation.

"I wonder if Fairy Gong has time to help me find a suitable underground fire cave in Xuanyan Market?"

Wei Tu touched Gong Shulan with his spiritual sense and asked through voice transmission.

Although his realm is higher than Gong Shulan's, he is unfamiliar with the Great Yan Central Region and cannot show off his cultivation every time he meets someone... Therefore, it is undoubtedly more convenient to trouble Gong Shulan, a "local tyrant" who has been rooted there for nearly a hundred years, for these small matters.

"Wei?"

Hearing Wei Tu's voice, Gong Shulan was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that it was Wei Tu who was speaking to her.

"Friend Wei, you are in the Central Region?"

Gong Shulan said with great surprise.

Although she did not have a deep understanding of the changes in the southern region of Da Yan, she knew that Wei Tu had been wanted by the Lord of Bliss.

Now, Wei Tu arrived at Xuanyan Market, and she finally felt relieved.

"Yes, I just arrived in the Central Region more than a month ago."

Wei Tu nodded slightly and replied.

After a brief greeting, Gong Shulan remembered the serious matter that Wei Tu had mentioned earlier.

"It is not difficult for me to help Fellow Daoist Wei rent an ordinary underground fire cave, but I think the underground fire cave that Fellow Daoist Wei wants must be at least Grade A... and this is not something that I can easily help with..."

"However, with the help of Fellow Daoist Lou Mingyue, it shouldn't be a difficult task. She is the offspring of the Sword Fire Palace's Transformation God, and is quite favored."

Gong Shulan thought for a moment and said.

"Lou Mingyue? The descendant of the God of Transformation?" Wei Tu's eyes narrowed slightly, and following Gong Shulan's guidance, he looked at the female cultivator among the man and woman who were traveling with Gong Shulan.

This cultivator was naturally beautiful, wearing a lake green dress, a long sword on her waist, and a free and easy posture, with a bit of a female hero's air, not like the female cultivators in the immortal sects who practiced breathing and meditation.

He had heard of this woman's name from the information revealed by the middle-aged man in Confucian robes when he was in Mingshan Market.

However, he did not expect that Gong Shulan was so adept at networking and entered the circle of "descendants of the gods" in the Central Region in a short period of time.

But after thinking about it for a while, he was not surprised.

In front of him, Gong Shulan is in a low position, but in front of other cultivators, Gong Shulan is an undisputed genius. Moreover, because of her early circumstances, she has a sharp mind, and it is difficult for cultivators who get along with this girl to be unhappy.

It is understandable that he has extensive connections.

"Please ask the Palace Fairy to introduce one or two to me."

Wei Tu nodded and gladly accepted Gong Shulan's suggestion.

After all, there's no harm in making friends and expanding his network.

He was not so arrogant as to think it was a shame to make friends below the level of a Spirit Transformation.

……

After a while.

With Gong Shulan's introduction, Wei Tu met Lou Mingyue and another male cultivator named "Liu Shaofeng".

"Master Wei is an old friend of Gong. We have been friends since the Qi training stage. He is honest and trustworthy, and he values ​​trustworthiness... Moreover, he is a fourth-rank high-quality alchemist."

Gong Shulan introduced in a serious tone.

Lou Mingyue and Liu Shaofeng didn't care much about the foreword, but when they heard that Wei Tu was a "fourth-rank upper-grade" alchemist, their eyes immediately lit up and they wanted to make friends with him.

Pills will always be the hard currency in the world of immortal cultivation.

The higher the level of the alchemist, the more respected he is among the cultivators of the same level.

Even if Gong Shulan wasn't there, this title alone would be worth it for them to make friends with her.

Of course, without Gong Shulan’s friendship, the two of them would not have easily incorporated Wei Tu into this social circle without completing background checks.

Soon, after a few words, Wei Tu, Lou Mingyue and Liu Shaofeng became more familiar with each other.

Taking advantage of this, Wei Tu also proposed to Lou Mingyue that he wanted to rent the first-class Fire Cave Mansion.

The first-class Earth Fire Cave Mansion is the fifth-level Earth Fire Cave Mansion.

"It is quite rare for an alchemist to use earth fire to refine pills. But since it is Master Wei's request, Mingyue has no reason to refuse. However, this matter still needs to be reported to the sect first..."

Lou Mingyue was not surprised to hear Wei Tu's words. In the world of immortal cultivation, making connections is more about exchanging interests, so it's better to be direct. Now Wei Tu's request is still within her ability, which makes her feel relieved.

Otherwise, if Wei Tu made too high a request, it would be wrong for her to agree or not.

"Thank you, Fairy Lou."

Hearing this, Wei Tu showed a look of gratitude on his face. He took out a fourth-level pill from his sleeve and gave it to Lou Mingyue in front of him.

Seeing Wei Tu being so generous, Lou Mingyue couldn't help but smile. She thought about it and added that she would accomplish this for Wei Tu within two months.
