I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

The wait lasted about a year and a half.

The divine calamity outside the "Tianyi Ruins" finally slowly dissipated, revealing the sky that should have been clear.

Just when Wei Tu was about to enter the "Tianyi Ruins" to investigate, the cry of an eagle suddenly rang out, and a two-headed Sky-Splitting Eagle suddenly appeared in front of him. Its body, which was several feet in size, shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then landed on his shoulder, rubbing his face affectionately.

"Traveling through space?" Seeing this, Wei Tu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

Previously, the [Red Spirit Wings] of the Sky-Splitting Eagle could only move through space within a small range, and it was impossible for it to pass through the space barrier of the secret realm and reach the outside world.

Now, it can do this without a doubt, because after breaking through to become a fifth-level monster, its bloodline supernatural powers have also greatly increased.

Seeing that there were no cultivators hanging around within a radius of hundreds of miles, Wei Tu did not hesitate. He immediately raised his hand and used the "Blood Puppet Technique" to temporarily merge the Sky-Splitting Eagle with the flesh and blood on his back, so that he could feel the Sky-Splitting Eagle's greatly enhanced blood power.

His mind moved, and he flapped his wings violently. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the spot and appeared silently more than ten miles away.

"It's at least ten times stronger than before!"

Wei Tu was overjoyed.

Previously, the spatial movement range of the Sky-Splitting Eagle when using the [Red Spirit Wings] was within one mile at most, but now it can move more than ten miles away with just a casual move... This made the Sky-Splitting Eagle's strategic value to him in the battle instantly increase several times.

At least, from now on, his use of the Sky-Splitting Eagle will no longer be to avoid some fatal attacks. He can also take advantage of the eagle's spatial movement speed to chase and escape.

This immediately gave him a huge boost in his confidence in entering the secret realm of the Royal Palace.

Now, even if he encounters a "one-foot-high celestial infant" or a great cultivator with the same foundation as him, with the Sky-Splitting Eagle, he has the confidence that he can negotiate with him for a long time and escape unscathed.

——An ordinary great cultivator who has reached the state of spiritual transformation, with his current magical power, is not necessarily weaker than the other party.

"Cri, ri." At this time, the Sky-Splitting Eagle suggested that they should no longer call this space escape technique "Red Spirit Wings", and they planned to call it "Sky-Splitting Escape".

After all, the name [Red Spirit Wing] was obtained from Luqiu Jinyuan's mouth. Now that it has become a fifth-level monster, it has long despised the former Luqiu Jinyuan in terms of realm.

"After becoming a fifth-level demon, I have developed self-esteem."

Wei Tu couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

However, he did not reject it, but accepted the advice readily.

With such powerful magical powers accompanying the Sky-Splitting Eagle, he would rather regard it as his fighting partner rather than a simple spiritual pet as before.

“Let’s go!” Next, Wei Tu did not want to stay in the Guixu Sea for too long, so he asked the Sky-Splitting Eagle to transform back into its original form, and sat cross-legged on the eagle’s back. He urged the eagle to go back to the "Yunyang Island" first, leave some cultivation resources for its old friends and relatives, and then headed straight to the Ice Sea.

In addition to the space escape technique [Sky-Splitting Escape], the Sky-Splitting Eagle, as a spiritual bird-like monster, has also seen a significant increase in its ordinary escape speed compared to before, which is comparable to the escape speed of a mid-stage Spirit Transformation Realm monster.

This is the innate talent of spiritual birds and monsters.

Hundreds of miles away, when the Tianxing League cultivators who were left here by Wu Xingsi and the ancestor of Xuehuang Mountain noticed Wei Tu riding on an eagle, they were also startled.

Although the Sky-Splitting Eagle did not deliberately reveal its ferocity as a fifth-order demon, its powerful demonic strength had already made these Nascent Soul cultivators feel instinctively palpitating.

At this moment, they no longer had any objection to Jishan Sect's dominance in Guixu Sea.

There was only one person named Wei Tu present.

Even though Venerable Han Yue has passed away now, the Jishan Sect is still a giant that they cannot shake.

……

After reaching the edge of the Xuanbing Sea, which was covered with northern magnetic light, the Sky-Splitting Eagle's [Sky-Splitting Escape] came into play again. This powerful force of reversing yin and yang could not have any effect on the inherent space.

Just like the teleportation distance on the sea surface, the Sky-Splitting Eagle can move more than ten miles in the North Magnetic Light with just a flap of its wings.

This undoubtedly saves a lot of time for the satellite image to pass through this long northern magnetic field zone.

It can even be said that the little time saved is enough to offset the one and a half years he spent waiting for the Sky-Splitting Eagle to achieve a breakthrough.

Two years later.

Wei Tu returned to the Dayan Cultivation Realm and arrived at the extreme northern part of the Dayan Cultivation Realm.

He went all the way south, passing through the Snow Mountain.

It was no coincidence that five years ago, the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl who had been traveling outside returned to the sect. She had originally planned to meet Wei Tu, but because she did not wait for Wei Tu for a long time, she left the Great Snow Mountain a year ago and continued her travels.

After saying hello to Tianmei Xuenu, Wei Tu came to the depths of the spiritual veins of the Great Snow Mountain to see the batch of "Fifth-Level Talisman Paper" that he had cultivated with the help of the "Four Yin Nourishing Spirit Array".

The fifth-grade top-quality talisman paper has not yet been completed, but judging by its spirituality, it will probably be completed in another thirty to fifty years.

The spirituality of the rest of the "Fifth-Level Talisman Paper" has been upgraded to "Fifth-Level Mid-Quality", which is sufficient for use.

What was worthy of Wei Tu's attention was that he saw that in the Four Yin Soul-Nourishing Array that nurtured the "Fifth-Rank Superior Talisman Paper", there were suddenly about 30,000 more soul crystals.

There is no doubt that this spiritual crystal should have been placed here by the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl who had returned to the sect earlier.

After receiving this kind of greeting, Wei Tu took out all the "fifth-level medium-quality talisman papers" without any hesitation and put them into his pocket.

There were more than thirty pieces of these talisman papers in total. Even though they were "inferior products" after being forcibly spiritualized, they could still produce quite a few fifth-rank medium-quality talismans, greatly improving his abilities.

After leaving the Great Snow Mountain, Wei Tu did not stay long in the Great Yan Central Region and the Great Yan Eastern Region, but went directly to the Golden Flame Island far overseas.

Golden Flame Island was still the same as when he left.

Obviously, the horror of this island has left Mao Wenhan, the blind Taoist priest, and the bald-browed old man, the three great gods, with lingering fears. Even though they know there may be other opportunities inside, they dare not try it easily.

"Is this a fifth-grade, superior magic weapon?"

Walking into the Demon-Fixing Cave, Wei Tu was teleported to the main hall that nurtured Wan Qing Mountain through the restriction core. He took a look at the huge mountain magic weapon in front of him that was emitting dazzling magical power and had a terrifying aura, and he felt delighted.

Although this magic weapon is not as complicated as the spiritual treasures and spiritual prohibitions of the same level and has many functions, as a magic weapon that can overwhelm others with force, it is enough for him who is in the late stage of the spirit transformation.

This is also due to the huge scale and pure refining magic energy here. Otherwise, if you want to refine a fifth-rank top-grade "spiritual treasure" in the human world, it will take thousands of years and spiritual objects of the corresponding level. It would be more difficult than breaking through the realm and ascending.

Next, he did not hesitate any longer. He flicked his sleeves and took the treasure into his palm. After refining it again and wielding it as he wished, he left the Golden Flame Island once again and flew away quickly in the direction of the "Da Cang Cultivation World" by controlling the Sky-Splitting Eagle.

……

"It's the day for the opening of the Royal Palace, which happens once every six hundred years. This time, it should be the same as before, with no accidents."

In the spirit world, a prosperous area of ​​the human race, in a luxurious and elegant cave, a stern-faced young man sat cross-legged, looking with a gloomy expression at a golden ancient word "True Spirit" that appeared on his wrist.

The ancient character of the True Spirit is named "Earth". It is the certificate for their Sang family to enter the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace, that is, the "Earth Emperor Pearl".

But everything has a price.

The secret realm of the Zunwang Palace is not accessible to cultivators above the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Therefore, even with his talent, he did not dare to rashly break through the "Refined Void Realm" for thousands of years, for fear of losing the opportunity to enter the secret realm of the Royal Palace.

He still knows which of the two is more important.

——Although the Lianxu Realm is a powerful being in the spiritual world, it is just an ant in front of the real big shots and can be stepped on to death at will.

And with the chance to enter the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace, he will have the hope of advancing to the fusion stage, and even reach the legendary "Mahayana realm" like Fairy Xuanling...

But over the years, he had no hope of inheriting the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace, and his resentment towards Fairy Xuanling grew day by day.

——The potential represented by three thousand years of refining the void and ten thousand years of refining the void, and the closeness to the power of heaven and earth, are very different.

“It’s just the Divine Transformation… In such a remote place like the Great Cang Cultivation World, who can achieve the Divine Transformation? Ding Lezheng from Shengya Mountain is not bad, but the Divine Transformation he achieved is only of average caliber. There is no hope for him to break the Bifeng Divine Prohibition of the Dharma Transmission Pavilion…”

The young man sighed softly.

The opportunity of the secret realm of the Royal Palace is available to anyone in the world, except for people from the "Sang Family".

He and the elders of the Sang family also thought about supporting puppets to help the Sang family gain the opportunity to enter the Royal Palace, but unfortunately, even as one of the "Thirty-six Aristocratic Families" of the human race, the Sang family had no way to teleport their members to the human world.

He had also contacted the Fog Ghost Clan on behalf of the Sang family, but unfortunately... this clan was too greedy and not suitable for cooperation. The Sang family was forced to give up the idea of ​​selling out the interests of the human race in exchange for an opportunity to enter the human world.

“It would be great if Fairy Xuanling could set up the teleportation site of this royal palace secret realm in the Great Flame Cultivation Realm or the Guixu Sea Cultivation Realm.”

The young monk shook his head and sighed.

He knew the situation in the human world, and there were many powerful gods. If every cultivator who entered the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace was not from this corner of the Da Cang cultivation world... I think this "farce" would have ended thousands of years ago.

He would not have wasted thousands of years of practice in vain, and is still in the "Spiritual Transformation" stage.

However, when he was thinking about this, a "name" suddenly emerged in his mind for no reason. It was a name that he had heard from the cultivators in the Great Cang Cultivation World.

Six hundred years ago, the secret realm of the Royal Palace was opened.

That was the biggest incident since the opening of the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace - although he thought it was not a surprise, after all, with thousands of years of accumulated experience, it was normal for the cultivators of the Da Cang cultivation world to open the other two palaces besides the "Dharma Transmission Pavilion".

But the Demon Locking Hall is different!

It was not like the "Weapon Smelting Hall", which was opened by the five evil sects working together, but was opened by one person alone, and that one person took all the opportunities.

"Weitu!"

The young monk whispered softly, his eyes full of expectation.

He hoped that Wei Tu could open the Dharma Pavilion as he had opened the Demon Locking Hall. In that way, as a servant of the Fairy Xuanling, he could compete with this person for the opportunities in the Dharma Pavilion.

However, after thinking for a while, his eyes dimmed. He did not believe that a young cultivator who was still in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul at that time could grow to the point where he could open the "Bifeng Divine Ban" outside the Dharma Transmission Pavilion in just six hundred years in that barren land.

This six hundred year journey was destined to be another futile one.

……

A few years later.

Wei Tu successfully returned to the Da Cang cultivation world.

"It's been nearly six hundred years." Wei Tu calculated the time with his fingers and saw that there were less than two years left before the opening of the Royal Palace. He couldn't help but pondering.

Six hundred years ago, his realm was only in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

Now, he has reached the late stage of transformation.

This progress can be considered rapid, but correspondingly, his age has also reached 1,457 years old.

At this age, in the human world, he has reached the late stage of transformation into a spirit and can be proud of himself enough, but in the spiritual world, he is just a "little genius" that can be found everywhere.

Only after a thousand years of becoming a god can one be considered a true genius!
Of course, this is because he was born in the human world, which has different resources from the spiritual world. When he ascends to the spiritual world, no one will look down on him just because he has practiced for a longer time.

The ascended monks of all generations have proved that the group of ascended monks should not be underestimated.

"I have met my husband..."

While Wei Tu was thinking, a slender and charming female cultivator in a phoenix skirt flew out from the Taoist temple on Shengya Mountain, landed in front of him with a slightly anxious look on her face, and bowed.

This woman is naturally Luqiu Qingfeng, who came to the Da Cang cultivation world more than ten years earlier than Wei Tu.

"Husband, how is the situation in Guixu Sea?"

Luqiu Qingfeng asked anxiously.

Although destroying the space tunnel on Qiyan Island was a wise move made by her in a critical moment, if anything happened in Guixu Sea... she would also be the first person responsible.

"Fortunately, I got back in time." Wei Tu smiled slightly, signaling Luqiu Qingfeng not to get excited, and then he spoke in a gentle tone about the current situation of Guixu Sea.

After he finished speaking, he looked at Luqiu Qingfeng with admiration.

During the more than ten years that he stayed in the Da Cang cultivation world, Luqiu Qingfeng did not waste any time. With the help of the "mid-grade spirit crystal" given by him, he successfully broke through to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation.

"As long as the Jishan Sect and the Wei Clan are safe, I am relieved."

Luqiu Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

She was not too proud of herself for having broken through to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation. After all, she had the middle-grade spirit crystal and the life-long accumulation of Chi Fengtai and Qi Yaoxian. It would be a strange thing if she could not break through.

"These are Venerable Tong and Patriarch Golden Shark. They are left to you, Qingfeng." Wei Tu took off the spirit beast bag from his waist and handed it to Luqiu Qingfeng in front of him.

However, Luqiu Qingfeng did not accept it immediately. Instead, she glanced at Wei Tu with resentment and sighed softly, "My husband has shown me such great kindness. I don't know how to repay him."

The Golden Shark Patriarch was fine, he was just an enemy that she hadn't been able to kill.

But Venerable Tong is quite different.

This man was the enemy who killed her father and annihilated her three clans. He was the person she hated most in the world. (End of this chapter)
