I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

"To be treated like a cow or a horse, to be a slave or a servant..."

Hearing this, Wei Tu was quite surprised, even more surprised than knowing that Situ You broke through the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and killed Wei Zhongliang, who was in the late stage of the Nascent Soul, with a sword.

With Situ You's current strength, it is unlikely for him to preserve Gujian Mountain under the siege of the cultivators of "Wuya Mountain", but there is still hope that he can escape alone by paying a small price.

There is no need to sell yourself and become a slave for the sake of the inheritance of Gu Jianshan.

"This person is still as sentimental as before."

Wei Tu sighed secretly and gave Situ You a very high evaluation again in his heart.

It was true that Situ You betrayed him, causing the two of them to part ways, but at such a critical moment, if Situ You was a normal person, he would not choose his old friend and abandon and kill all the cultivators in Gujian Mountain.

On one side are good friends whom you met on the road of Taoism, and on the other side are the sect that gave birth to you and taught you Taoism... It goes without saying which is more important.

However, although he felt moved, the recognition he had for Situ You was not enough to make him help him, of course he would also have to deal with the remnants of Shengya Mountain later.

"But if I can use this opportunity to recruit a servant who has good potential and values ​​feelings... that's not bad either."

Wei Tu stroked his chin, thinking secretly.

The friendship of their old "friend" alone was not enough for him to help Situ You immediately. However, if he could get a Nascent Soul slave with good potential after helping him, that would be another matter.

As the saying goes, a promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold.

At this moment, the oath for help made by Situ You was not some random nonsense, nor was it a moral kidnapping of him, but it was made under the witness of all the cultivators in the Da Cang cultivation world.

Given his and Situ You's current "bad relationship", Wei Tu didn't think that when Situ You made this oath, he would be lucky enough to think that he would be easily exempted from this slave oath after he took action to resolve the disaster of Gujian Mountain.

He, Wei Tu, the "Master Wei", has never been a kind-hearted person who does good deeds indiscriminately.

"Master Huang, you can help Gu Jianshan now."

Wei Tu's mind moved, and he used a communication device to give an order to Ni Shihuang who was hiding near Ancient Sword Mountain.

With his speed, he could reach Ancient Sword Mountain from the border of Xiao State in less than five breaths, and then support Situ You to wipe out the remnants of the Shengya Mountain.

But at this moment, it is not yet time for him to appear.

——Since he has decided to take Situ You as his servant, the favor he shows him must be great, so great that he cannot repay it even if he dies.

This is the way to control people.

Of course, during this period, there will inevitably be some casualties among the monks of Gujian Mountain.

But what does this have to do with him?
He had no obligation to save the monks of Ancient Sword Mountain.

Secondly, this is also an opportunity for him to observe Situ You's potential and foundation up close.

Just now, Wei Zhongliang was killed by Situ You in adversity. Due to the fierce battle with Qi Yaoxian at that time, he had no chance to see the details. He only saw the amazing sword light that lingered in the sky for a long time...

He was very curious about what kind of opportunity Situ You had encountered during these six hundred years that not only had his cultivation broken through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, but his swordsmanship level was also beyond that of ordinary people.

……

"He killed the sect leader in the mid-Nascent Soul stage against all odds, and broke the forbidden formation cast by the Divine Kui Boat with one sword, and transmitted the news to the outside world..."

"Friend Situ, we underestimated you."

On the Ancient Sword Mountain, the four Yuanying of "Wuya Mountain" who were outside the light shield of the sect protection formation looked at the dead leader Wei Zhongliang in the formation, as well as the big hole in the red curtain lowered by the [Shen Kuizhou] that was broken by the sword energy, and their faces were very ugly.

As monks from Shengya Mountain, they were very familiar with Situ You, the former sword master of Gujian Mountain. Some of them had even been invited to Gujian Mountain to attend Situ You's Nascent Soul Ceremony on behalf of Shengya Mountain.

Therefore, at the beginning, they looked down on Situ You, a Yuanying from a small sect.

But what they never expected was that when the Ancient Sword Mountain protective formation was about to be broken by them, Situ You actually took the initiative to lure Wei Zhongliang, who was in the late Nascent Soul stage, into the formation, and killed him one-on-one in adverse circumstances, forcibly changing the situation of the battle.

This move undoubtedly brought them great shame and humiliation.

It would have been fine if he couldn't deal with Wei Tu who had already broken through the realm of transformation, but he actually suffered a setback in the ancient sword mountain!
"He was able to kill Senior Brother Wei, so he was indeed quite capable, but he was also seriously injured and exhausted."

"Now is the perfect time to slaughter Gu Jian Mountain in one fell swoop."

The four Yuanying of "Wuya Mountain" communicated secretly, their eyes showing murderous intent, and decided to use all their strength, fight quickly and decisively, and no longer hold back.

Wei Zhongliang's death was bad news for them, because from then on, the number of Yuanying cultivators in Shengya Mountain was reduced by one, and it would not be easy to replenish them...

But for the current battle situation, this may not be the case.

Boom! Boom!
Various magical weapons that were powerful enough to move mountains and fill the sea were used by the four Yuanyings, including the [Shen Kui Boat]. Several spirit crystal cannons also turned their muzzles, began flashing with spiritual light, and were ready to go.

"What to do? What to do now?"

"Master Situ, think of a solution quickly."

In the square outside the main hall of Ancient Sword Mountain, countless monks cast their hopeful gazes on the middle-aged swordsman who was floating in the air and standing in front of them.

Although his thin figure was not tall, he was the man who had just flown out from the back mountain and killed Wei Zhongliang who pounced on them and wanted to refine them into blood food.

"A solution? What solution can I still have?" Situ You, with white hair, stood in front of the cultivators and smiled bitterly. The spirit sword in his hand trembled violently, making a sharp sword whistling sound, as if he could still be as successful as when he killed Wei Zhongliang.

But he was the only one who knew how bad his physical condition was at the moment - let alone crossing the border to kill, even fighting against the same level would be very difficult for him.

That sword was the final blow that killed Wei Zhongliang. He had hoped that the power of this sword would scare away these "Wuyashan" monks, but unfortunately it failed.

Including the cry for help that spread throughout the countries, it was also his last attempt to save the situation.

"If I were still good friends with Venerable Wei, why would I worry about the disaster today..."

Situ You sighed secretly and felt a little regretful.

If at that time, he had not underestimated the value of the Wei Tu and would rather lead the entire Ancient Sword Mountain to fight against Ji Wuya and the Hehuan Sect, the situation today would be very different.

Whether Wei Tu came here in person to support, or left some magical powers behind, he could easily resolve this crisis.

"Master Situ Jian, the enemy is fierce. I'm afraid it will be difficult for our sect to survive today. I hope you can leave as soon as possible, go somewhere else, and establish a new sect for us..."

Several old Jindan, including the current Sword Master, stepped forward and begged Situ You to evacuate as soon as possible to avoid being captured by "Wuya Mountain" and causing the complete destruction of Ancient Sword Mountain.

They saw Situ You’s “difficulty in speaking”.

It is not realistic to rely solely on Situ You to fight against the four Yuanying of "Wuya Mountain".

"Between two evils, choose the lesser one. Master, as long as you are here, my Ancient Sword Mountain will be here..." The current Sword Master had a sad expression on his face. He had already prepared himself mentally for the Burial Sect.

Click!Click!
The sect protection formation that blocked the heads of the cultivators of Ancient Sword Mountain was on the verge of breaking again at this moment. Under the tremendous pressure of various magic weapons and magical powers, its surface began to show visible cracks, and it seemed that it would collapse in a few more breaths.

Seeing this, Situ You's expression changed slightly, and he was in a difficult decision.

Should I escape, or accompany my sect to the funeral.

"If there is someone... someone who can save my life, I would be willing to serve you like a slave, even if it means taking my life." Situ You clenched the magic sword in his hand and thought to himself.

But he was disappointed. Even after the protective formation of Gu Jian Mountain was broken, no one came to support him.

"Master, run away!"

"Master Situ, run away!"

"Where there is life, there is hope."

The cultivators at Gu Jian Mountain were so frightened that they started crying, but some high-ranking Jindan cultivators within the sect had not yet lost their minds. They sent messages to Situ You, asking him to flee quickly and save the legacy of Gu Jian Mountain.

Seeing this situation, even if Situ You didn't want to be a deserter when his sect was destroyed, he had to grit his teeth and activate his escape light, preparing to flee from Ancient Sword Mountain.

However, just as his escape light began to rise.

A delicate cry suddenly sounded at Ancient Sword Mountain, followed by a fierce collision of magical powers.

Its spiritual pressure is no less than that of the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

"Reinforcements, who is it?" Situ You was overjoyed. While resisting the incoming magical power, he looked up towards the source of the delicate shouting.

Soon, he saw a beautiful female cultivator wearing pink palace clothes, with a pretty face. She was quite brutal, using her bare hands in close combat to tear apart the body of a Nascent Soul cultivator from Wuya Mountain.

"Ni Shihuang?"

"Ni Shihuang from the Tiannu Sect?"

Not only Situ You was surprised, the four Nascent Soul cultivators from Shengya Mountain who were present also felt unfamiliar and stunned at Ni Shihuang's sudden intrusion.

The first is Ni Shihuang’s identity.

This woman is a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Tiannu Sect, one of the five sects of the Demonic Path. Logically speaking, she should have no connection with Ancient Sword Mountain.

Now, Gu Jianshan is in trouble, and it is easier to accept that Di Jianshan, who is also one of the "Two Swords", comes to support than Ni Shihuang, the evil witch, comes to rescue.

The second is Ni Shihuang’s realm.

It has only been a few hundred years since Ni Shihuang broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. How is it possible that he could reach the "mid-Nascent Soul" level in both the Immortal Dao realm and the Body Refining realm at the same time?

This breakthrough speed is almost as fast as Wei Tu's in the past.

"Master Ni, we have no grudges against you in the past or in the present, why are you suddenly helping Ancient Sword Mountain?"

The Nascent Soul cultivator from Wuya Mountain, who barely escaped from Master Ni Huangsu's hands, looked at the beautiful lady in palace clothes with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth and asked sternly with a pale face.

At this moment, Gu Jian Mountain had the help of Ni Shihuang. Although the situation on the battlefield was not reversed immediately, compared with before, the task of annihilating Gu Jian Mountain and killing Situ You was obviously much more difficult.

“Hahahaha… This fairy and your Wuya Mountain really don’t have any hatred, but since this Taoist friend Situ is willing to work like a cow or a horse for the master, and be a slave and a servant… this fairy naturally doesn’t mind helping him.”

Ni Shihuang's jade hand trembled, shaking off the blood in her palm. She pursed her pink lips slightly and smiled indifferently.

It's not her character to do things without leaving a name.

What's more, she helped out this time under Wei Tu's orders, so she would not waste this good opportunity to promote Wei Tu's reputation.

Furthermore, it is not necessarily true to say that there are no resentments from the past.

She, Ni Shihuang, was ordered by Wei Tu to assassinate many remnants of Shengya Mountain in the Great Cang cultivation world, but she acted too quickly and too covertly, and was not known to everyone.

"Owner?"

As soon as the words fell, all the cultivators present could not help but exclaim in surprise. They couldn't believe that such a powerful and beautiful lady in palace clothes actually already had a master?
This is too unbelievable.

You know, a master as powerful as Ni Shihuang is capable of establishing his own school and dominating the world of cultivation in Da Cang.

But soon, after carefully savoring the meaning of Ni Shihuang's words, they felt relieved.

Just now, they were all familiar with the person Situ You was asking for help from - that was the legendary figure in the Da Cang cultivation world today - Wei Tu.

Calling Wei Tu, the God of Transformation, "Master" and serving him is not shameful at all, but rather a very dignified thing.

Being a dog, it depends on whose dog it is.

Moreover, Ni Shihuang is so beautiful. If she is lucky enough to sleep with Wei Tu and give birth to a boy or girl, her future will be even brighter and limitless.

"Venerable Wei..."

Situ You was stunned and shocked inside.

Even though he had heard many rumors about Wei Tu over the past six hundred years since he parted ways with him and knew that Wei Tu was no longer the divine master of the Yingding tribe, he had never imagined that a mere servant under Wei Tu's command could have such a magical ability to turn decay into something extraordinary.

This was a huge blow to his self-confidence.

After years of hard training, he is actually not as strong as Wei Tu's servants...

He even thought that his "words of request for help" just now were quite humiliating.

……

"Since Ni Shihuang is Wei Tu's servant, and now that she is here, then Wei Tu..."

After being shocked by Ni Shihuang's current identity, the four Yuanying of "Wuya Mountain" immediately thought of this, and a trace of panic appeared in their eyes.

Back then, when Shengya Mountain was at its peak, the ancestor Ding Lezheng was no match for Wei Tu.

He was defeated repeatedly by Wei Tu, who was newly promoted to the God of Transformation. He fled thousands of miles away in blood and died tragically at the gate of Shengya Mountain.

Now, there are only a few defeated soldiers left, how can they fight against Wei Tu?

“No! Not necessarily. Wei Tu has not appeared in the Great Cang Cultivation World for hundreds of years. Senior Brother Wei said that Wei Tu is most likely hiding his identity in the Great Yan Cultivation World…”

"Ni Shihuang helped because he was concerned about the relationship between Situ You and Wei Tu, not because he received orders from Wei Tu..."

"Besides, if Wei Tu really showed up, why would he only send Ni Shihuang to rescue the situation without showing up himself?"

A Yuanying from "Wuyashan" analyzed rationally.

After hearing this, although the other Yuanyings of "Wuya Mountain" were still worried, they gradually calmed down and regained their previous composure.

"With Master Ni's intervention, it will be much more difficult to destroy Ancient Sword Mountain than before. Now we just need to capture Situ You."

"He's at the end of his rope."

The cultivators of "Wuya Mountain" made a new plan.

——They also have the magic method of making human elixir obtained by Wei Zhongliang. If they catch Situ You and refine him using the magic method, it will be of great benefit to their cultivation.
