I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals
Chapter 820 The culprit cannot escape, capturing the child venerable
As the knot in their hearts was untied, the conversation between Wu Xingsi, the ancestor of Blood Phoenix Mountain, and Wei Tu became more lively.
He also informed Wei Tu about the injury of Venerable Han Yue.
“Injured?” Wei Tu frowned slightly and motioned Wu Xingsi and the Blood Phoenix Mountain Patriarch to explain in detail.
He had never seen this information from Meng Jinghao or in the memory of the Golden Shark Patriarch.
Seeing this scene, Wu Xingsi and the Blood Phoenix Mountain Patriarch roughly understood what was going on. After looking at each other, they nodded.
The two of them were not frogs in a well. They knew that the human world was vast, and was more than just a corner of the Guixu Sea.
During these seven years, Wei Tu mostly went to other cultivation realms and was only able to return recently.
Therefore, after a pause, the two of them narrated the incident to Wei Tu in detail.
Four years ago, when Tianxing Island was lost and the two of them led the Tianxing Alliance to retreat to Yukong Island and were unable to take care of themselves, Venerable Tong took the opportunity to secretly ambush Venerable Hanyue.
At that time, although the Jishan Sect had closed its mountain gates and ignored the attack of the Three Sects Alliance on the Tianxing Alliance, its forces outside had not yet withdrawn completely. Taking this opportunity, Venerable Tong secretly used a shady trick to put the Five Scattered Taoists stationed outside under siege.
Upon hearing the news, Venerable Han Yue would not sit idly by. On his way to rescue the Five Scattered Taoists, he was ambushed by Venerable Tong who had been prepared, and an unknown female cultivator who had reached the stage of Divine Transformation.
During the battle, Venerable Han Yue suffered serious injuries.
Fortunately, Venerable Han Yue made a decisive decision in the face of danger and no longer cared about the lives of the Five Scattered Taoists. He retreated in time and saved his own life.
That was why they saw the opportunity to unite with Jishan Sect and fight against the Three Sects Alliance, and sent a letter to Jishan Sect for help...
But unfortunately, it still fell into oblivion.
Wei Tu knew this very well. Venerable Han Yue was the only one left to guard the Jishan Sect. When both he and Luqiu Qingfeng were away, how could Venerable Han Yue dare to start a war lightly?
"No! If the three factions were united in advancing and retreating together, then...why didn't the Golden Shark Patriarch have any memory of Brother Han Yue's injury in his soul?"
"Also, if it was an ambush, why was there only Venerable Tong this time, without Old Ancestor Golden Shark or Old Monster Dingyang? If Old Monster Dingyang was there, Senior Brother Hanyue wouldn't have been able to escape so easily."
Hearing this, Wei Tu immediately discovered that there was something suspicious about this matter.
The only explanation is that this ambush was planned by Master Tong alone, rather than a joint effort of the three factions.
That's why the three factions' alliance failed to gather all their divine powers.
What’s even more surprising is that after the failure, Venerable Tong actually concealed the matter and did not let the allied Deity Ancestor Golden Shark know anything about it.
Instead, it was the rival Tianxing Alliance that knew this secret.
"It seems that this Tong Zun has great ambitions and is the most astute person among the three factions in the alliance."
Wei Tu narrowed his eyes slightly, vaguely anticipating that after the old monster Dingyang's Nascent Soul exploded and died, the remaining "culprit" Tong Zunzhe might not be so easy to catch.
This cultivator most likely had spies planted inside the Shen Yue Sect, which was how he was able to block the eyes and ears of the Golden Shark Patriarch and prevent him from knowing that his ambush on the Venerable Han Yue had failed.
——Although Venerable Huashen is powerful, it is impossible for him to take care of everything and worry about the trivial matters inside and outside the sect.
Dingyang Old Monster is not that easy to deceive...
But the Haoyang Sect must have been infiltrated by Venerable Tong just like the Shenyue Sect.
In other words, it probably won’t be long before the news of the death of old monster Dingyang will reach the ears of Master Tong from the Haoyang Sect.
"However, you can't easily escape from this Guixu Sea. I want to see who is faster, you or me."
Wei Tu snorted coldly and did not hesitate any longer. He bowed and said goodbye to Wu Xingsi and the ancestor of Blood Phoenix Mountain. Then he stepped on the thunder dragon transformed by the Thunder Snake Flag and activated the Blood Escape Technique, quickly rushing towards the direction of Xiaohuan Palace.
……
"The ancestor's soul tablet... is broken?"
While Wei Tu was fleeing to Xiaohuan Palace, at the same time, Haoyang Sect was filled with gloom and sadness.
Similar to the Shenyue Sect, the soul tablet of the ancestor, Dingyang Old Monster, is also enshrined in the Patriarch's Hall, making it convenient for disciples to check his life and death and determine his safety at any time.
During the battle with Wei Tu, the old monster Ding Yang blew himself up in anger. Not only did he not want to become a prisoner, he also wanted to use his own death to notify his disciples to escape quickly to prevent them from being caught by Wei Tu.
At present, no one in the Haoyang Sect can compare to Wei Tu, but if the time is extended to a thousand or ten thousand years, as long as the Haoyang Sect's Taoist lineage still exists, sooner or later there will be a day when it will revive and dominate the Guixu Sea again, and even destroy the Jishan Sect.
Such things are common in the world of immortal cultivation.
The predecessors were not as good as this school.
It doesn’t mean that later generations are inferior to other schools.
However, just when the leader of Haoyang Sect announced that all elders should lead their disciples to establish a new sect and escape from the mountain gate - the eyes of a middle-aged man in Confucian robes who was ranked third from the bottom among the elders flickered slightly.
Two days later, an urgent secret letter suddenly appeared in Xiaohuan Palace, inside a beautifully decorated cave.
"What? The soul tablet of old monster Dingyang is broken?"
The white-haired and youthful Tong Zun was shocked when he opened the secret letter.
In recent years, many venerable gods have died in Guixu Sea, such as the ghost woman, and the venerable god-transforming cultivator "Long Qianqiu" who was plotted against by him and the old monster Dingyang.
But...the fallen middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm has never appeared in the past tens of thousands of years.
Moreover, the present time is different from the past. Today's Guixu Sea immortal cultivation world is far less prosperous than it was tens of thousands of years ago. Not only are there fewer and fewer spirit-transforming cultivators, but the cultivator with the highest realm has only reached the "middle stage of spirit-transformation".
What's more, Ding Yang Old Monster has a rich background, and he has a fifth-level low-grade defensive magic treasure on him, so he is not afraid of the siege of ordinary gods...
In other words, the cultivator who could kill old monster Dingyang must be at least in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
However, as far as he knew, there seemed to have never been such a ruthless person in the current Guixu Sea cultivation world.
"Moreover, some time ago, the spy I planted in Shenyuemen also sent a letter saying that the whereabouts of the Golden Shark Patriarch were unknown while he was hunting down the murderer who killed Bi Chen and others..."
Venerable Tong's expression was uncertain.
If the missing God of Transformation was from the Tianxing Alliance or the Jishan Sect, he would not have been so anxious.
But it just so happened that both the dead and missing gods were monks from their three-faction alliance.
Of course, it is also possible that he was too suspicious, and the "disappearance" of the Golden Shark Ancestor was just a coincidence, but when it comes to matters of life and death, how can one not be cautious?
"It would be great if this strong man was only targeting old monster Dingyang." Venerable Tong sighed secretly and thought with some hope.
Although he was still brooding over the revenge against Wei Tu and Luqiu Qingfeng, it did not mean that he was willing to become the "follower" of the old monster Dingyang and be mocked by the gods of the same level.
These are mostly just forced by the situation.
If possible, he would rather keep his own piece of land.
But alas, time waits not for us.
The old monster Dingyang is ambitious, and he is coveting the "great opportunity" of Wei Tu. Wei Tu and his Taoist partner Luqiu Qingfeng also have promising prospects... They are determined not to let go of this enemy who has exterminated their clan.
Four years ago, he ambushed Venerable Han Yue without informing Old Monster Ding Yang and Old Ancestor Jin Sha. His purpose was to make the Three Factions Alliance attacked from all sides and muddy the waters so that Old Monster Ding Yang, the only mid-stage Spiritualization Master, would be unable to do anything...
Unexpectedly, the Jishan Sect did not fall for his trick.
Venerable Tong is not stupid. He knows that after the old monster Dingyang attempts to seize the Tianyi Ruins and achieves the late stage of the God Transformation Realm, he will never be as close to him as before.
Even for the sake of Haoyang Sect's hegemony, they would not tolerate him.
What a pity.
The old monster Dingyang, whom he was afraid of, was finally "cursed to death" by him.
But unfortunately, there is another strong man who seems to be secretly plotting against him!
"We can't stay in Xiaohuan Palace anymore. No matter what this strong man's purpose is... without the protection of old monster Dingyang, it will be difficult for Xiaohuan Palace to deal with Jishan Sect and Tianxing League."
Venerable Tong looked reluctantly at the distant buildings, palaces, and sacred places of the disciples. After hesitating for a moment, he finally showed a ruthless look, flicked his sleeves, and escaped to a super long-distance teleportation array hidden in the sect's important place and had been concealed for many years.
This formation leads to the distant sea of Guixu Sea.
No matter how powerful that strong man was, he couldn't run to the distant sea of Guixu Sea and kill him.
As soon as he arrived at the open sea, he immediately lived in seclusion for a thousand years. After the sea in Neixu became calm, he chose the opportunity to come out.
A moment later, under the activation of dozens of spells from Venerable Tong, the long-distance teleportation array that had been sealed for many years began to glow, creating spatial fluctuations and began to connect with the teleportation array at the other end.
Just at this moment——
A large hand shining with golden light suddenly appeared on the platform of the long-distance teleportation array. With a light press, there was a "click" sound, and the expensive long-distance teleportation array instantly dimmed and shattered into pieces.
"Who are you?" The waiting Master Tong was suddenly startled. He looked up at the owner of the big hand and immediately saw a green-robed monk with a pale, bloodless face and a little dusty.
"You are Wei Tu?!"
Venerable Tong was horrified. He had never forgotten the appearance of the green-robed monk over the past hundreds of years. Sometimes, when he was in meditation, the appearance would continue to appear in his mind.
It seems to have become his inner demon!
But what he couldn't understand was why a Wei Tu, who was in the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, could easily break through the protective formation of the Xiaohuan Palace and accurately sense his location - and at this critical moment, destroy the ultra-long-distance teleportation formation that he used to "hide from disaster."
These two things are definitely not something that a person in the early stage of Spirit Transformation can do.
However, at this moment, he is still judging based on common sense.
"Like me, have you also received the information that the soul tablet of old monster Dingyang was broken?" Venerable Tong's mind raced, and he instantly figured out the reason why Wei Tu appeared here.
With the death of old monster Dingyang, he undoubtedly lost a powerful protector, and it was normal for him to provoke revenge from Wei Tu, who was already his enemy.
"Old ghost Hanyue, where is Luqiu Qingfeng?"
"They didn't come?"
Reverend Tong released his spiritual sense and searched back and forth, and while he was extremely frightened, he asked aloud.
"It's enough as long as I'm here. Senior Brothers Qingfeng and Hanyue, there's no need for you to come here." Wei Tu sneered, raised his hand and sacrificed several green leaf spiritual treasures, which shot out in the direction of Venerable Tong.
The words fell.
Venerable Tong was immediately shocked. He didn't know why Wei Tu had such strong confidence that he could handle himself alone.
However, when he saw that Wei Tu's weak energy and blood were weakened when he took action, he was immediately encouraged and looked overjoyed.
Based on his experience, it is not difficult to judge that Wei Tu’s "timely" arrival at Xiaohuan Palace must have consumed a lot of true energy and was caused by a series of blood escapes. After all, the distance between Jishan Sect and Xiaohuan Palace is not that close!
This instantly gave him the confidence to deal with Wei Tu.
However, the next moment.
As soon as they fought.
After his spiritual light hit the two green leaf spiritual treasures offered by Wei Tu, the luck and confidence in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he was left with only palpitations and uneasiness.
This seemingly ordinary Qingye spiritual treasure, with just a rustling sound, easily broke through his protective aura, and instantly destroyed the spiritual power of the spiritual treasure he had offered. At the point of contact, a "gap" visible to the naked eye was revealed.
"how is this possible?"
Venerable Tong couldn't believe that he would be defeated so quickly.
What's even more terrifying is that before he could get scared and want to escape, a corpse with a green face and fangs was already standing quietly behind him. He clapped his hands and an extremely cold corpse aura instantly turned him into a lifelike ice sculpture.
Immediately afterwards, a talisman as black as ink floated down between his eyebrows.
All this happened, from the time he discovered Wei Tu's trace to his defeat, in less than two breaths.
"Didn't he escape blood to hurry on his way, so his Qi and blood are declining? Why is he still so powerful?"
"Could it be...could it be..."
At this moment, a guess that he thought was impossible suddenly emerged in the mind of Master Tong who was frozen in ice.
——The cultivator who killed the old monster Dingyang was Wei Tu!
Only this reason can explain why Wei Tu has such powerful strength and rushed to Xiaohuan Palace immediately after he received the information that the old monster Dingyang was dead.
"This person is too cautious. He doesn't even leave me a chance to survive."
Venerable Tong felt a chill down his spine, horrified by both Wei Tu's strength and his character.
If it were him, after killing the old monster Dingyang, he would probably have quietly licked the loot and was anxious to inherit the old monster Dingyang's legacy. He would not even think about immediately dealing with another "enemy".
But he didn't know that although Wei Tu was cautious, he didn't think of this at the beginning.
The reason why he realized it immediately, in addition to the fact that he thought of this when talking with Wu Xingsi and the ancestor of Xuehuang Mountain, was also related to... the fact that he was used to seeing the legacy of the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation!
Therefore, he was not blinded by greed.
After all - if you count carefully, before the old monster Dingyang, there were already two people in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation who died at the hands of Wei Tu.
The inheritance reached as many as three statues.
His horizons had long been broadened by Master Tiegui, Master Qiye, and the Lord of Huoyang Island. He was no longer a poor man, and would not care too much about the treasures on the Dingyang old monster. (End of this chapter)
