I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

"Chi Fengtai?"

Hearing this, Wei Tu frowned slightly.

It was normal for Chi Fengtai to be a casual cultivator from the Northern Territory and have some connection with the Northern Territory's overlord, the Ghost Shadow Palace. However, when it came to top-secret information like the Spirit Zombie Palace, he thought the chances of Chi Fengtai leaking it were slim.

There is no other reason, it’s all about benefits.

Chi Fengtai can still get a share of the profits from them, but what benefit will Chi Fengtai get if he gives this information to the Ghost Shadow Palace?
Power and position are just something that can be easily obtained for these gods.

What is truly precious is the resources hidden in the Lingjiang Secret Palace that allow them to advance further.

Therefore, if Chi Fengtai had not leaked the information on his own initiative, then there would be only one answer - this woman was like Feng Yuan, who was plotted to death by the Ghost Shadow Palace and her soul was searched and taken away.

At this moment, Wei Tu also understood something. No wonder the Ghost Shadow Palace had no reaction to the "Three Factions Alliance". It turned out that a lot of their energy was occupied by Chi Fengtai and the Lingjiang Secret Palace, and they had no time to take care of the Great Snow Mountain.

But that's not a bad thing.

Thanks to this, he and the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl were able to remain safe and sound and focus on refining the Heavenly Eyebrow Snow Girl into a "flesh corpse".

Now, we are only a few steps away from complete success.

Second.

The Lingjiang Secret Palace is not a secret realm of inheritance.

Even though the Ghost Shadow Palace obtained detailed information about Chi Fengtai's exploration inside, casualties were still inevitable.

——Deep in the Secret Palace of Spiritual Zombies, there are guards who are in the "late stage of transformation into a god".

If not for this, the four gods would not have withdrawn their efforts and agreed to come back to take the treasure after refining the fifth-grade top-grade formation "Four Beasts Destroying God Formation".

Wei Tu doesn't think that the number and strength of the gods sent by the Ghost Shadow Palace to the Lingzhang Secret Palace at this moment can be stronger than the combined strength of their four great gods back then.

"If he is really stronger, then there are more valuable places than just the Soul Zombie Secret Palace..."

Wei Tu's eyes flickered, and his gaze seemed to cross many spaces and landed on the mountain gate of the Ghost Shadow Palace.

It is true that the Ghost Palace is powerful, and its overall strength can even compete with the alliance of three factions.

But unfortunately, the troops were too scattered.

In terms of local strength, it is actually weaker than the alliance of three factions.

Therefore, in his opinion, the Ghost Shadow Palace's current commitment to the Spirit Zombie Secret Palace is not a bad thing for them, but a very good thing.

Especially for him.

Because he was just a casual cultivator in the Great Yan cultivation world, he had no weaknesses and no worries.

Thinking of this, Wei Tu considered his words for a while and told Qi Yaoxian the plan he had just come up with.

Although this plan is good, it also depends on whether Qi Yaoxian can accept it. After all, this girl is not like him who is alone. There is a Huashen Sect behind her that needs to be protected.

"Attack the Ghost Shadow Palace's mountain gate?"

As soon as the words fell, Qi Yaoxian's eyes lit up, and she looked eager to try.

Although stealing from the Haunted Palace was dangerous, she could still afford some losses as long as she planned properly.

——At worst, we can transfer the elite disciples in the sect in advance.

The special feature of the corpse-sinking evil land is that it is cut off from the outside world, and the Northern Territory is extremely far away from the corpse-sinking evil land...

In other words, as long as they could seize the time difference, they could occupy the gate of the Ghost Shadow Palace and seize the sect's assets without the Ghost Shadow Palace monks in the corpse-sinking evil land knowing.

Even if the opportunity is right, it might be possible to eliminate the incarnation monks left behind by the Ghost Shadow Palace to guard the sect.

"In addition, if we attack the Ghost Shadow Palace, we can also strive for the power of Lou Shiwang and Jianhuo Palace."

"By then, it will not be a three-faction alliance, but a four-faction alliance."

Qi Yaoxian smiled coldly.

The Ghost Shadow Palace occupied the Spirit Zombie Secret Palace, and not only her and Wei Tu were offended, but also Lou Shiwang, the ancestor of the Sword and Fire Palace.

He snatched away the opportunity that King Lou Shi had anchored, which was tantamount to taking revenge.

Based on what she knew about King Lou's temperament, let alone the fact that he would gain much from stealing the house this time, even if he didn't, he would still be willing to cause some trouble to the Ghost Shadow Palace.

……

The plan is set.

Qi Yaoxian did not stay in the Great Snow Mountain for long. He immediately flew back to the Central Region to lobby the ancestors of the Yanhuang Sect and the Jianhuo Palace.

Wei Tu, who was assigned the task, was responsible for lobbying the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl.

However, there is no rush for lobbying.

Wei Tu decided to work together with the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl to refine the Sky Eyebrow Snow Girl first.

After completely refining the "Tianmei Snow Girl" into a "flesh corpse", his bargaining chips will undoubtedly have more weight.

Walk into the cave with the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl.

Wei Tu clapped his hands, and a beautiful young woman in a white dress with messy black hair walked out gracefully from the inner room of the cave. There was a bit of numbness on her face, but when she saw Wei Tu, her face turned into shame, resentment, and a touch of sadness.

A few years ago, she was still the high and mighty Snow Girl of the Great Snow Mountain, admired by thousands of people. However, after being plotted against by Wei Tu, she was not only "abandoned by everyone", but also became a prisoner and suffered humiliation.

"Has the physical corpse been refined successfully?" Upon seeing this, the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl raised her eyebrows slightly, with a look of surprise, and a hint of vigilance on her face. After all, according to the "Secret Technique of Corpse Refining" given to her by Wei Tu, at least several steps are needed before it can be completed successfully.

Now, Wei Tu can already command Tianmei Xuenu and make her obey him. Doesn't this mean...

"Snow Girl, you're worrying too much. This is just Fellow Daoist Tianmei's cooperation with me." Wei Tu saw what the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl was thinking, smiled slightly, and began to explain.

After five years of continuous refining and physical stimulation, Tianmei Xuenu was no longer so resistant to him. In other words, she had changed from being completely uncooperative to being semi-cooperative.

The reason is simple - by obeying him, Tianmei Xue Nu can really suffer less, and resisting him will not have any good results.

In addition, "flesh corpse" is not simply a method of controlling corpses, it also implies some restrictions on the soul and can hypnotize the person being controlled.

——Controlling the body is equivalent to controlling the mind.

Simply put, when Tianmei Xuenu completely became a "corpse in the flesh", even if her mind did not submit to him, she would obey all his orders subconsciously.

Then... gradually, I began to identify with him deep in my heart.

This is the domineering power of the advanced corpse refining technique in the spiritual world.

To prove my words.

Wei Tu did not make any magic gestures, he did not use any magic power, he simply raised his hand.

The next moment, Tianmei Xuenu, who came out from the inner room of the cave, seemed to have lost control of her body. She raised her feet and slowly moved towards him, standing beside him as she had done in the past, just one foot away from his palm.

"What's going on? Why did I listen to this guy's orders?" When the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl was relieved and nodded in agreement with Wei Tu, the Sky Eyebrow Snow Girl was shocked in her heart, her eyes full of surprise, and a little bit unbelievable.

After hearing the command, she walked out of the inner room of the cave... This was an act of obedience that she was forced to do because she was afraid of being tortured.

After all, if you obey, you can suffer less humiliation.

But when I saw Wei Tu raise his hand, I moved accordingly, and that was no longer the case.

In her heart, she had always been resisting Wei Tu's behavior.

I plan to embarrass Wei Tu a little.

To prove himself, he is still the almighty ancestor of the God of Transformation.

But... the fact was contrary to her idea. Her body seemed to have its own consciousness and obeyed Wei Tu's orders again.

This instantly reminded her of some bad things that happened in the past.

Back then, when she was abducted by the Ghost King Li and taken to the Ghost Shadow Palace, she refused to surrender at first and would rather die than surrender.

But after the Ghost King Li abused her and gave birth to a daughter, her attitude towards the Ghost King Li gradually changed. Although she still had a lot of resentment, she also secretly enjoyed the Ghost King Li's violation.

She knew that she was being a bit mean.

However, what really changed her attitude was the support from Li Guiwang for her practice. He provided her with the necessary resources for breakthrough during the critical period when she was breaking through to the God Transformation stage.

At that time... Li Guiwang treated her better and better, but Master, on the other hand, kept questioning her because she had lost her uterus seal, and even asked her to abort the fetus in her belly despite the damage to her body.

With her intelligence, she of course understood that this was all intentional on the part of the Ghost King and the Ghost Shadow Palace, but she had no other way out.

I can only be forced to go down this path until the end.

If she embraces the Ghost King, she can still have a family and undestroyed happiness, but if she falls towards the Snow Mountain, she will really lose everything.

"It seems that Wen Tianqi has given me a third way. Just like this, following the instructions of Wen Tianqi and Jincan... is also pretty good."

Tianmei Xuenu struggled internally, and the look she gave Wei Tu was no longer as cold and piercing as before, but instead contained a hint of obedience amidst her deep resentment.

However, in her mind, she still had unforgettable and lingering memories of the tall figure of Li Guiwang.

"If...if he could be more domineering, like the Ghost King Li...and invade me, then the memory of the Ghost King Li might be faded and erased."

Tianmei Xuenu couldn't help but have this thought in her mind.

For thousands of years, as a traitor in the Great Snow Mountain, she has been tormented by her conscience.

And it was Wei Tu who rescued her from this hell and was her great benefactor.

……

Seeing that Tianmei Xue Nu had already accepted physically and mentally that he was her "master", Wei Tu was overjoyed.

When refining the "flesh corpse", if the cultivator resists too much, even with the powerful restriction of this method, he can still be forced to surrender.

But forced surrender...is inevitably much less effective than voluntary surrender and cannot be perfect.

Originally, he had been prepared for the imperfect refining of the "corpse body" this time, but he never expected that the Tianmei Xuenu, who was of noble status and powerful realm, would finally surrender to him at the last moment.

Even though this kind of submission was full of hesitation and not loyal, deep down in his heart, he would no longer resist him planting the corpse refining seal.

It is simply an innate holy body that is suitable for being refined into a "flesh corpse".

However, it was obviously difficult for the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl to know this inside story. Seeing that the Tianmei Snow Girl no longer resisted Wei Tu's "refining" and gradually cooperated, she felt a little relieved. After all, she still felt a little guilty about her behavior of stabbing the Tianmei Snow Girl in the back.

……

at the same time.

On the other side, in the forbidden area of ​​the Central Region - the evil land where corpses are sunken.

Inner area, the entrance to the underground palace of the Lingjiang Secret Palace.

A startling rainbow shot out from the south, and when it landed here, it gradually slowed down, revealing a young male cultivator with a golden crown, a purple python robe, and a handsome face.

This person was none other than Ji Le Shen Hou, the former deputy leader of the Nine Nations Alliance who had just founded the "Senluo Sect" in the Southern Territory a hundred years ago and unified the Southern Territory's immortal cultivation world.

However, at this time, the Lord of Bliss was not as domineering and arrogant as he was in the Southern Region. When he saw a burly male cultivator wearing a thorny cloud cloak and a ghost face mask at the entrance of the underground palace, he immediately bowed and said, "Uncle Xu."

The Ghost Shadow Palace is similar to the Demonic Path. It does not respect teachers, but instead respects strength.

No one knew that the reason why he, the Marquis of Ji Le Shen Hou, was content with his position as a marquis and did not call himself a prince or an emperor was not because he took his fellow tribesmen from Liuyang Kingdom into consideration, but because he did not dare to overstep his authority over the man in front of him who called himself the "Ghost King of Li".

He is one of the few powerful mid-stage Spirit Transformation masters in the Great Yan cultivation world.

His strength is not comparable to that of Master Tiegui, who is at the bottom of the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and he has never been defeated so far.

"There are only four gods in my sect. Now Master Xu has come to explore the Lingjiang Secret Palace, and Master is guarding the Senluo Sect on my behalf. Only Master Cao is left in the mountain gate... It is inevitable that the strength of the sect is empty... It will not be a good thing if he takes advantage of the opportunity to sneak in."

The God of Bliss said with a worried look on his face.

If it were normal times, he would not care about such a small matter, but unfortunately, the "Three Factions Alliance" is now too fierce, and it is a turbulent time, so he has no choice but to be careful.

"The alliance of three sects? It's just a minor problem. It won't cause any big trouble. Qi Yaoxian of the Immortal Spirit Sect, the Three Flames Ancient Lord of the Flame Emperor Sect, the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl of the Great Snow Mountain... these three people are not people who can accomplish anything. How can three mere gods have the ability to attack the mountain gate of my sect?"

"Besides, your aunt is still in the Great Snow Mountain. With her around, the Northern Territory can be at peace."

Li Guiwang waved his hand and smiled confidently.

Tianmei Xuenu was his biggest confidence in leaving the Northern Territory.

With Tianmei Xuenu around, not only can we monitor the movements of the three factions' alliance, but when necessary, she can also serve as a fighting force to help the Ghost Shadow Palace resist invasion.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness surge into his heart, like a warning from the unknown.

But he just frowned slightly and didn't take it seriously.

It is true that monks have "spur of the moment" things, but these things are often far-fetched after the fact.

If a whim was really so accurate, then the powerful people and ancient sects in the world would have been immortal long ago. How could they rise and fall with the tide of history?

Strength is his greatest confidence!

He didn't think that the Ghost Shadow Palace, with the help of Tianmei Xuenu, would be in crisis during the time he was away.

Besides, the Secret Palace of Ling Zombies was right before his eyes. It would be ridiculous for him to rush back to the Northern Territory just because of an early warning for no reason.

"That's right. With Master's aunt here, the Ghost Shadow Palace will be as stable as Mount Tai and unbreakable." Upon hearing this arrangement, Ji Le Shen Hou nodded slightly and immediately put aside the worries in his heart.

He had met Tianmei Xuenu and knew how loyal this aunt was to "Uncle Xu".

A few years ago, this woman secretly assassinated the Sixth Elder of the Immortal Spirit Sect, causing a rift between the Immortal Spirit Sect and the Great Snow Mountain Sect. Even though the two sects later put the overall situation first and did not fall out, it was not easy for them to unite as one to deal with the Ghost Shadow Palace. (End of this chapter)
