I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Losing the formation flag and having to "abandon the tail and escape" was something that Island Master Ye could afford to do given his wealth, but allowing Wei Tu to take advantage of the opportunity to steal the storage bag around his waist was something he could not tolerate.

“How dare you, youngster?” Island Master Ye snorted coldly. His body shook and at the moment of dodging, his right hand turned into a scaly claw like a dragon, wrapped in gray calamity energy, as if he was going to use his demon body to directly capture Wei Tu's [Xuanling Gold Chain].

He also saw the extraordinary nature of Wei Tu's [Xuanling Gold Chain], and wanted to snatch Wei Tu's [Xuanling Gold Chain] while ascending to the Ancient Demon Realm, so that Wei Tu would end up losing more than he gained.

It is worth exchanging a "Nine Capitals Mysterious Spirit Formation" for a spiritual treasure that is suspected to be of top-grade fifth-level.

"Fellow Daoist Shilong, if we don't stop Island Master Ye now, when will we stop him?" Wei Tu shouted.

Upon hearing this, Island Master Ye's expression changed slightly. He then remembered that besides Wei Tu, there was also the bald-browed old man on his left whom he had ignored.

Although the bald-browed old man did not forcibly stop him from ascending to the ancient demon world after being deceived by him just now, you must know that he has now incurred the "wrath of the public", and as an old demon with many years of experience, his whole body is full of treasures... Once the bald-browed old man is instigated by Wei Tu, and with the help of Mao Wenhan and the blind Taoist priest nearby, the four great gods working together, his fate may not be too good.

Thinking of this, Island Master Ye immediately changed his tactics. He held up a magic shield, retracted the dragon-like scaly claws on his right hand, and did not intend to fight with Wei Tu anymore. Instead, he focused on breaking into the space crack.

But during this short delay, Wei Tu, who was far away from him just now, had approached him without him knowing when. With golden light flashing on his body, he unceremoniously punched his magic shield to pieces, then changed his fist into a claw in an instant and grabbed the storage bag on his waist with one hand.

At this time, half of his body had already stepped into the "space crack", and was torn by the space crack, so he no longer had the chance to turn around and return to the human world.

"Young man, since you want my storage bag so much, then follow me to the Ancient Demon Realm."

Island Master Ye sneered, and let Wei Tu pull the storage bag on his waist without any care. He put one hand on Wei Tu's shoulder and wanted to pull Wei Tu into the space crack.

His life span is short, and only by ascending to the spirit world or the ancient demon world can he break through the realm and prolong his life under such relaxed rules of heaven and earth.

Although the ancient demon world is dangerous, as a demon beast, if he washes away all his spiritual energy and transforms it into demonic energy, there may be hope for him to rebuild his foundation and enhance his potential.

But Wei Tu is quite different.

It is true that there are human demon cultivators in the ancient demon world, but the status of these human demon cultivators is far from being comparable to that of a great demon like him.

Moreover, Jiang Lingzi had high hopes for Wei Tu's potential. Now that he has "ascended" to the ancient demon world, he has wasted all his talents and has become a useless person.

However, a scene that he did not expect appeared.

Just when he was about to use his scaly claws to grab Wei Tu's shoulders and drag Wei Tu into the space crack, a monk with a "green face and fangs" suddenly appeared between him and Wei Tu.

This "green-faced and fang-toothed" monk was surrounded by a cold and deathly aura, and he pushed hard at his chest.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful force exploded from him, causing his body to stagger and fall completely into the space crack behind him.

At this time, Wei Tu, who had been waiting for an opportunity, finally broke his magic power and pulled his storage bag off from his waist.

"A fifth-stage corpse refiner?" At this moment, Island Master Ye, who had fallen into a space crack and was teleported away in an instant, finally saw the true appearance of the green-faced and fang-toothed monk.

He felt both shocked and angry, but also relieved. After all, with his strength, it would not be easy for him to deal with Wei Tu, who had a fifth-stage late-stage refined corpse, not to mention that there were a group of gods such as the bald-browed old man beside him. Although he lost a storage bag by being teleported away, it was better than dying here.

——As an old demon, he has many storage instruments on him, so how could he only have one storage bag? The storage bag only contains part of his wealth and some spiritual objects he usually uses.

“With this storage bag in hand, the high-level formation, the Jiudu Xuanling Formation, is completely in my hands.” At the same time, Wei Tu smiled slightly and stroked the storage bag of Island Master Ye that fell into his hands.

It is true that Island Master Ye "abandoned his tail and escaped" this time, discarding many formation flags including the [Nine Cities Mysterious Spirit Formation]. However, the most critical formation plate was not discarded by the monster, but was kept in this storage bag.

Only when the formation plate and the nine formation flags of the [Nine Cities Mysterious Spirit Formation] are gathered together, the formation will be complete.

He had been observing from the sidelines and had kept this in mind, so when Island Master Ye "ascended", he took the risk and snatched the storage bag from his waist.

Of course, this move was not dangerous. After all, as a fifth-stage physical cultivator, his physical training might not be as good as that of Island Master Ye, who had practiced demon cultivation for many years, but his flexibility in close combat was far superior to that of this demon.

In addition, with the assistance of the "Toad Water Yin Corpse", it is extremely safe to fight two against one.

However, after the existence of the "Toad Water Corpse" was exposed...

Wei Tu raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at the blind Taoist who was approaching the direction of the bald-browed old man.

Obviously, these two great gods are showing a tendency to unite.

Water has no constant state, and people have no constant state.

After Island Master Ye ascended to heaven, he was almost the only one in power among the cultivators present today. After seeing his extraordinary methods, Mao Wenhan and the blind Taoist priest, who felt threatened, could not gather around him to protect themselves. They would deal with Island Master Ye and the bald-browed old man together as before to deal with him together.

Today, Mao Wenhan has not made a choice yet, which shows a certain degree of trust in him.

This is a change in the situation on the battlefield!
This made him secretly say "what a pity".

If possible, he also wanted to snatch the "Ding Yu Dan" from the bald-browed old man just as he had snatched the "Ning Xiao Dan" from Master Qi Ye.

However, the situation is unavoidable and he will not force it.

Right now, the "space crack" for ascending to the ancient demon world is still in this reception hall. If he forces it, the bald-browed old man will probably ascend to the ancient demon world like Island Master Ye.

In the battle with people of the same level, he thought to himself that he was not sure enough to forcibly stop the bald-browed old man at a close distance and prevent the cultivator from getting close to the space crack.

In addition, Mao Wenhan, the blind Taoist priest, and the bald-browed old man all had hesitant looks on their faces, as if they were wondering whether to take the risk and ascend to the ancient demon world.

Although the Ancient Demon Realm is not as friendly as the Spirit Realm to human cultivators like them, if they ascend to the Ancient Demon Realm... the hope of achieving enlightenment would be much greater than staying in the human world.

Upon seeing this, Wei Tu pondered for a moment, then moved his lips slightly, and informed Mao Wenhan through voice transmission about the "difficulty" of venturing into the spiritual realm and ascending to the upper realm.

"Without reaching the late stage of the Spiritualization Realm, or without reaching the fifth level of the Body Refining Realm, it is difficult to sneakily ascend."

He reminded Mao Wenhan.

“What? Without reaching the late stage of Spirit Transformation and without the fifth-level body refinement... it’s difficult to ascend to the upper realm?” Mao Wenhan was suddenly shocked when he heard this, and then his face was full of disappointment.

Before this, he was still hesitating whether to follow Island Master Ye’s example and ascend to the “Ancient Demon Realm” and make a name for himself in the Ancient Demon Realm.

But now, after knowing this secret, he realized how naive his thoughts were.

The blind Taoist priest and the bald-browed old man on the side were also paying attention to Wei Tu and Mao Wenhan. When they saw the look of disappointment on Mao Wenhan's face, they began to make some guesses.

"That's right! If ascending to the Ancient Demon Realm is also possible, Island Master Ye would probably win me over and ascend together with me instead of deliberately deceiving me..."

The bald-browed old man sighed secretly.

He knew clearly that the reason why Island Master Ye chose to sneak into the space crack this time was probably related to Wei Tu's entry. He knew that what he said could not deceive Wei Tu, a cultivator who had contacted Jiang Lingzi, so he temporarily changed the plan.

Otherwise, with Island Master Ye’s cunningness, after breaking the ancient seal of the space rift, he would probably tell the truth that he did not have the ability to change the destination of the space rift, and then invite (cheat) him to "ascend" to the ancient demon world together.

In this way, Island Master Ye would not have to abandon his dozens of formation flags in his haste to ascend and leave.

This way.

Wei Tu's arrival actually saved his life in disguise.

Of course, he wouldn't appreciate any favors for this.

Taking a deep breath, the bald-browed old man narrowed his eyes slightly and bowed to Wei Tu, "Friend Wen, Island Master Ye has deceived us and ascended to the Ancient Demon Realm alone... We have no hope of ascending to the Spirit Realm, and now we should think about how to leave this Demon Cave."

"I wonder if Brother Wen has any good ideas?"

One has two.

Since Wei Tu was able to disguise himself as a "gray-robed monk" in the quasi-god-transformation realm, he was not discovered by the several great gods.

So, it is understandable that before entering the magic cave, I had been disguised as his "disciple" and was not noticed by him.

Therefore, he was confident that Wei Tu was most likely the quasi-divine cultivator who took Gong Shulan away using the "transfer formation".

So - naturally, Wei Tu’s understanding of the Demon-Fixing Cave far exceeds that of the several great Divine Transformation cultivators.

Now, if one wants to leave the Dingmo Cave, one must either continue to think hard about how to leave the cave, or seek help from Wei Tu, who knows the information about the Dingmo Cave.

"That's right! If Brother Wen has any good ideas, please tell us." The blind Taoist nodded in agreement.

Now, after gaining nothing in the Dingmo Cave, he also lost the "carrot" hanging in front of the donkey's head. Like the bald-browed old man, he naturally did not want to stay in the Dingmo Cave any longer.

However, Wei Tu is not so easy to talk to in this regard.

He smiled faintly, ignoring the words and pretending not to hear them.

Saw this scene.

The bald-browed old man's expression changed several times.

He understood that Wei Tu was trying to ask for benefits.

"If Fellow Daoist Wen tells me the truth about the information in this Demon-Fixing Cave, and why Island Master Ye is so sure of ascending to the Ancient Demon Realm... I will reward you handsomely."

The bald-browed old man spoke sincerely.

"It's the same for me."

The blind Taoist also nodded. He smiled bitterly and said, "I told Fellow Daoist Wen about Master Qiye's attack that day. Now I hope Fellow Daoist Wen will tell me the secret of this place."

But Wei Tu still did not answer.

He ignored the blind Taoist and the bald-browed old man, sat down on the ground, took out the storage bags taken from Island Master Ye and Master Qi Ye from his sleeve, circulated his magic power, and patiently ground away the magic imprints in them.

"Sure enough! Master Qiye was killed by this person!"

Upon seeing this, the bald-browed old man's eyes suddenly tightened, and a hint of horror appeared in his eyes.

At this time, he no longer had any dissatisfaction with Wei Tu's arrogance, but instead was filled with fear.

After all, having a small victory over Master Qiye is completely different from killing Master Qiye.

Being able to kill Master Qiye means that Wei Tu also has the ability to kill him, who has the same name as Master Qiye.

However, he did not want to be blackmailed by Wei Tu in vain, so after frowning for a moment, he whispered with the blind Taoist for a while, and the two of them fled from the "Reception Hall" together, looking for a way to leave the Demon Cave.

Soon, in the reception hall, only two gods, Wei Tu and Mao Wenhan, and a group of quasi-gods were left.

Mao Wenhan wanted to ask Wei Tu how to leave, but because of Wei Tu's "indifference" towards the blind Taoist and the bald-browed old man, after thinking for a while, he sat down quietly and waited for the opportunity to come.

At this moment, it was not difficult for him to see Wei Tu's true nature.

I know that he is different from the bald-browed old man and others. Although he is not a good person in character and does not have a kind heart and the desire to help others, he is definitely not a bad person...

As long as he stands on Wei Tu's side, when the time is right, Wei Tu will not let him be trapped in this Demon Cave.

However, the group of quasi-God-Transformation monks who were missing the supervision of several great God-Transformation masters, looked at each other for a while, and someone actually rushed directly towards the "space crack" in the hall.

The ending is predictable!

The moment he stepped into the space crack, the monk cried out in pain.

"Save me! Senior Wen, Senior Mao, please save me." The quasi-god-transcendence cultivator shouted.

It was visible to the naked eye that half of his calf that fell into the space crack was shattered into powder in an instant.

Moreover, due to the powerful pulling force within the space crack, the upper body of this cultivator was constantly being swallowed by the space crack.

However, Wei Tu and Mao Wenhan who were present turned a blind eye to this scene.

Good words can't persuade a damn ghost!

Although the two of them did not mention the disadvantages of entering this space crack, anyone with a little bit of intelligence could easily see that since several of them, the great gods, had not entered, how could an ordinary quasi-goddess-transformation cultivator dare to enter this space crack?
After many twists and turns, all the quasi-divine cultivators present calmed down. Xue Wei Tu and Mao Wenhan sat in meditation together, no longer thinking about anything else.

Time passes slowly.

One month.

two months.

The blind Taoist and the bald-browed old man who were exploring other parts of the Dingmo Cave returned to the Jieying Hall several times, but after seeing the unmoving Wei Tu, they stammered a few times and still said nothing, and continued to search for a way to leave. (End of this chapter)
