I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 706: Defeat Han Yue, Reasons for War (4k, please subscribe)

Only such people can achieve what is difficult for ordinary people to accomplish—breaking through the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm and then ascending to the upper realm.

"Since Junior Brother Wei has such strength, I will not show mercy next time."

After he finished speaking, Venerable Han Yue flicked his sleeves, and a blood-red streak instantly flew out from his sleeves, as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it landed in front of Wei Tu.

Blocked by Wei Tu's magic shield, the blood-red streak revealed its true form at this moment. It was an extremely thin blood-red sword that looked like it was cut from paper.

At the same time, a strange blood light flashed on the sword. Under the blood light, dense and complex spiritual patterns were flickering slightly, emitting a terrifying pressure.

“Spiritual treasure! It’s a spiritual treasure! Master has finally used the spiritual treasure.”

The cultivators were excited, realizing that Venerable Han Yue was serious at this moment and was no longer going easy on them like before.

Of course, in a sense, this was also a failure of Venerable Han Yue, who was unable to easily crush the "challenge" of his junior Wei Tu... But Wei Tu was also the Venerable Huashen of their Jishan Sect.

Seeing that Wei Tu’s strength has greatly increased, they also feel honored.

No matter who wins or loses this competition, it will be a good thing for them and Jishan Sect.

……

"The veteran incarnation should not be underestimated."

Under the sudden attack of the blood sword, Wei Tu, who was attacked, was far from being as relaxed as the other monks present looked.

At this time, although his realm was there, due to the rapid improvement, the corresponding means of protecting the way seemed a little weak.

These can be supplemented by some other means, such as [Green-faced Turtle Shell], or the fifth-level defensive talisman... However, once these means are used, they will inevitably go against his original intention.

After all, this is just a competition, not a real life-and-death battle.

Let’s not talk about the fifth-level talisman for now.

Once he uses the defensive magic treasure [Green-faced Turtle Shell], the balance of victory and defeat will immediately tip in his favor, and there will be no need for Venerable Han Yue to continue fighting with him.

——It is not shameful to rely on the power of spiritual treasures. [Green-faced Turtle Shell] was obtained by him with great difficulty. It was not a gift from heaven.

However, in such an occasion, there is no need to sacrifice it too early. If the time comes for defeat, it will not be too late to sacrifice it.

"Besides, my body is not that weak."

Wei Tu smiled indifferently, pretending to be relaxed. At the moment when his magic shield was broken by the blood-red sword, a dazzling golden light suddenly appeared on his body, protecting him inside.

This dazzling golden light is the "spiritual power" that has been accumulated in his body for many years.

Although his body refining realm is only at the peak of the fourth level, which is not enough to withstand the oppression of the God Transformation Realm, it is not difficult for him to buy some time for him.

The next moment, the blood-red sword fell on the golden light shield formed by the "spiritual body". As soon as it came into contact with the golden light shield, it shattered into pieces. It was obvious that it could not withstand too much time.

However, at this moment, Wei Tu, who had gained a chance to catch his breath, also completed his hand gestures and immediately transformed into thousands of blood crows. They moved as fast as flowing light and avoided the fatal blow that was still left after the blood-colored small sword broke through the light shield.

"Ten Thousand Crows Blood Escape"? !

At this moment, the cultivators also recognized the blood escape method used by Wei Tu.

This escape method is the unique skill of Jishan School. Wei Tu performed it so skillfully and with such profound attainments that they couldn't help but identify with Wei Tu in their hearts.

It is no longer like before. Although they openly acknowledged that Wei Tu was the second deity of Jishan Sect, in their hearts, they believed that Wei Tu's status in Jishan Sect was something they were forced to accept.

"Ten Thousand Crows Blood Escape... As far as I can remember, this is what I taught Wei Tu more than a hundred years ago..."

"In addition to this escape method, is there another kind of law, such as natural law? Law that is biased towards speed?"

Venerable Han Yue was slightly startled, and his expression became a little unnatural, as if he had the illusion that he was surpassed by his disciple.

In fact, if Wei Tu had not progressed so quickly, in his heart, he would probably not have positioned Wei Tu as a "junior brother" but as his successor.

"But, that's all. You're still a long way from defeating me!"

Venerable Han Yue's eyes flashed with sharpness. He shouted softly, and while urging the blood-colored small sword to continue attacking Wei Tu, his hands also began to quickly make hand gestures.

One after another, simple magic spells descended from the sky with overwhelming force, surrounding Wei Tu.

Of course, these simple spells were just a cover. He didn't expect that he could defeat a Divine Master of the same level with just some simple spells. He had hidden the real attack inside.

This move was exactly the same as his first move to attack Wei Tu.

But, it's different.

This time, he increased the speed of his attack several times, and the number of hidden killing moves was no longer just one, but several.

To defeat the enemy and win, you don't need any complicated means. The truth is to use one unique trick to conquer them all.

But Wei Tu obviously would not let Venerable Han Yue attack as calmly as before. When all kinds of simple spells overwhelmed him, a dark golden chain, also under his control, came silently behind Venerable Han Yue, shot out like a bowstring, and shot towards him.

However, having watched the scene of Wei Tu transcending the tribulation, how could Venerable Han Yue not be on guard against the magical treasure in Wei Tu's hand?

Although the [Xuanling Golden Chain] attacked quickly, the Venerable Han Yue who was touched by it was quickly shattered like a water mirror. At the same time, an identical figure appeared several miles away.

only--

Venerable Han Yue had miscalculated after all.

Under Wei Tu's two major pupil techniques, "Sun-gazing Golden Eyes" and "Hun'e Evil Eyes", his illusion spells were no different from earthly magic and could be easily seen through.

"Go!" Wei Tu, who escaped from his original position with the help of the fifth-level defensive talisman, appeared near Venerable Han Yue in an instant. He pointed his fingers and shot out several green sword auras, attacking Venerable Han Yue together.

"The Green Emperor's Life-Slaying Sword?"

Venerable Han Yue already knew that Wei Tu's sword contained the power of Dharma. His eyelids jumped, and he made a quick decision. He bit his tongue to extract blood, and immediately retreated violently.

However, at the moment he retreated violently, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if he had touched something dangerous.

Behind him, he saw a huge magical stone mill flying out at some point, falling towards the direction of his retreat with the force of a mountain.

"I admit defeat."

Seeing this scene, Venerable Han Yue was very decisive. Without much hesitation, he said this sentence directly.

With his ability, it is not difficult for him to deal with this crisis, and it will not lead to the loss of his life.

However, when competing with people from the same clan, there is no need to use your own life-saving methods.

Although that kind of thing will not become less with each use, it is inevitable that your vitality will be severely damaged after using it.

Secondly, even if he really tried his best to deal with the current crisis, who could guarantee that Wei Tu had any backup plans?
Nowadays, even though the means Wei Tu used are not enough to be called "the best in the same level", it is not an exaggeration to rank him among the top combat forces in the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

And this is enough.

"Won?"

"Master has admitted defeat?"

Hearing this, Zhu Zongzhu and others who were watching the battle showed disbelief on their faces, and their eyes also hid some loneliness and distraction. During the battle, they had some guesses about whether Wei Tu could win.

At that time, it was believed that no matter who won or lost, it would be a good thing within the Jishan Sect.

However, when they actually saw Venerable Han Yue being defeated, they still found it a little hard to accept.

What they most want to see is: the two great gods fighting each other to a standstill, and finally Wei Tu being defeated.

That way, everyone can save face.

It’s a pity that the ending did not turn out as they had expected, but instead led to a situation that was a little hard for them to accept.

However, unlike Sect Master Zhu and others, after seeing Wei Tu's victory, Luqiu Qingfeng was surprised and happy. He suppressed a smile on his face and forced himself to remain calm.

In front of Sect Master Zhu and others, Venerable Han Yue is not only a master, but also a legend of the Jishan Sect.

Isn't it the same in the eyes of the Luqiu clan?
Jishan Sect is the upper sect of the Luqiu clan, and the ancestor of Jishan Sect, Venerable Hanyue, is naturally a giant mountain that has been weighing down the Luqiu clan for thousands of years.

Now, even though she has joined Jishan Sect as a member of the sect due to her status as a "God-Transforming Taoist Companion", her awe of Venerable Han Yue is something that she, the princess of the Luqiu clan, has not dared to forget for thousands of years.

However, today, Venerable Han Yue admitted defeat, and admitted defeat in front of her fellow Taoists... One can imagine how excited and happy she was, as well as how honored she was.

"However, in this situation, how should Wei Lang end it?"

After the surprise, Luqiu Qingfeng couldn't help but feel a little worried.

After all, she and Wei Tu were "living under someone else's roof" in Jishan Sect and were not the real masters.

Although defeating Venerable Han Yue was a cause for celebration, it also dealt a heavy blow to Venerable Han Yue's prestige within the Jishan Sect.

If they were narrow-minded people, I'm afraid that after today, they would no longer be able to get along well with the direct descendants of the Jishan Sect.

Sect Leader Zhu and others also held the same idea.

They also didn't know why the previously clever "Palace Master Wei" would do such a stupid thing, making it difficult for Venerable Han Yue to step down.

In the silent atmosphere, everyone's eyes quickly focused on Wei Tu.

……

"Brother Hanyue, it looks like it's up to you to end this time."

Feeling everyone's gazes, Wei Tu shook his head and smiled, looking towards Venerable Han Yue in the distance, and said with a smile.

Although he had no ability to judge people, he believed that Venerable Han Yue should not be disguised and everything he did was from the heart.

Otherwise, after he said "the master of the same level", he would not have risked fighting him, and promised that after the battle, he would help him eliminate the obstructive forces within the sect.

In the eyes of Sect Leader Zhu and others, it was a huge matter that Venerable Han Yue’s “invincible myth” was broken.

But from their perspective of spiritualization, this is just an ordinary little thing.

Back then, when he revealed that he had the foundation of a "one-foot-high heavenly infant", Venerable Han Yue must have been prepared to be surpassed by him in the future.

At that time, when he was still weak, it made no sense for Venerable Han Yue not to make trouble for him. But now that he is strong, he is fighting him to the death just for some pride.

"Now, I still cannot believe that I will be defeated by you in just over a hundred years."

After hearing Wei Tu's words, Venerable Han Yue did not answer in a hurry, but said this with emotion and sigh.

"Originally, I thought you would hold back a bit, but I never thought you would be so ruthless."

After expressing his feelings, Venerable Han Yue flew to Wei Tu's side, shook his head and said jokingly.

This sentence fell.

The tense atmosphere around him suddenly eased a lot.

All the practitioners who were watching felt relieved and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, even if they were dissatisfied with Venerable Han Yue's defeat, they had no reason to offend the more powerful Venerable Wei Tu, who had attained the state of transformation, because Venerable Han Yue did not care about such a small matter.

"Alright! Let's get back to the point. This time, I'm competing with Junior Brother Wei to decide an important matter."

"Now, Junior Brother Wei has won. It's time to tell you about this important event."

Venerable Han Yue's expression became solemn, he waved his hand, summoned Sect Leader Zhu and others to his side, and said in a deep voice.

The words fell.

Sect Leader Zhu and the others could not help but exchange glances with the acquaintances, their expressions full of curiosity.

He seemed to be wondering what kind of big event could cause the two great gods of the sect to be determined by the outcome of a competition.

But soon, as Venerable Han Yue further explained, their expressions gradually became solemn, and they completely understood why Venerable Han Yue launched this war and why Wei Tu must win.

The reason is very simple. The purpose of starting the war with the premise of solving the problem of Venerable Tong has basically put the future rise and fall of the Jishan Sect on the table.

Once defeated, there will be no recovery.

"If I am not mistaken, the feud between Venerable Tong and Venerable Wei should have originated from the Luqiu clan... However, this matter has passed, and Xu Wansun has also died in Venerable Wei's incarnation ceremony... This feud should be over."

Sect Leader Zhu gritted his teeth and said these words in front of all the cultivators, risking offending Wei Tu.

The words fell.

The practitioners nodded secretly.

Including Venerable Han Yue, everyone was looking at Wei Tu, waiting for Wei Tu's explanation.

Before this, he did not ask Wei Tu about the reason for starting the war. It was not because he had not thought about it, but because there was no need to question Wei Tu too much about an impossible thing and destroy their mutual feelings.

Now, Wei Tu has defeated him, and this impossible thing has become possible. He also needs to get a suitable reason from Wei Tu to explain it all.

"It is indeed unnecessary to start a war because of hatred. But since Wei and Senior Brother Han Yue have the strength to deal with Master Tong together, why don't we start a war?"

Wei Tu said calmly.

Upon hearing these words, all the cultivators were choked and didn't know what to say.

Because Wei Tu was indeed right in saying this.

Since you have the strength and there is a grudge, why should you be so afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind?

It is true that Venerable Tong can ask other gods for help, but how can Venerable Tong know whether they are fighting to seize territory or to kill themselves?
Without knowing this, and without knowing the combined power of Venerable Wei and Venerable Han Yue... with a carefully laid plan, it is not impossible to trap and kill Venerable Tong.

"So, instead of thinking about the reasons for starting a war, it is better to think about the benefits of killing Master Tong and destroying Xiaohuan Palace."

"These benefits are the reason why we go to war!"
