I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

"As for the information about the Demon Cloud Sect and Master Chai..."

Master Su Xin talked about business. "The Demon Cloud Sect is fine. They often show up in Dingyuan Immortal City. But since Junior Brother Wei left thirty years ago... there has been no news of him. No one has seen any trace of him in either the Divine Fire Immortal Realm or Dingyuan Immortal City."

"Could it be that Master Chai has also left the Lei Ze Continent like you?" Master Su Xin guessed.

"It's possible."

Wei Tu nodded, agreeing in his heart.

Having provoked the Lord of Nine Flames and stolen the Divine Ape Grass, no matter how confident Chai Shouzuo was, he certainly had the thought of going out and avoiding the limelight.

At this point in the conversation, seeing that Wei Tu had no intention of talking to her any more, Master Su Xin sighed, said goodbye and left, leaving the hall to Wei Tu as a resting place for him during his stay in Qingyang Valley.

Outside the hall, she stood alone on the jade platform, her figure graceful and a little desolate, with a rare cloud of worry on her brows.

At that time, for the future of the sect, she decided to devote herself to Wei Tu. Although it was voluntary, she also felt a little "dissatisfied" and "wronged" in her heart, thinking that she was "marrying down".

Today, Wei Tu has emerged from the sea like a hidden dragon, entered the Holy Emperor Territory and became a monk in the Human Ancestor Hall. His future is limitless...

The "dissatisfaction" in her heart disappeared.

But unfortunately, Wei Tu didn't seem to be that interested in her. Their conversations were mostly about business, and there was rarely any talk of personal love between a man and a woman.

"That's it!"

"fair enough."

"Wei Tu is also a man who cherishes old times. In the future, when he becomes a combined cultivator, even if he has no interest in me, I think he will still support Qingling Sect..."

Master Su Xin looked up at the moon and consoled himself.

……

After Master Suxin left, Wei Tu, who was in the main hall, took out the apology gift that Monk Baozhi had given him from his storage of magical instruments.

"Sixth-level high-quality spiritual medicine - Xiangluo grass."

"Sixth-level middle-grade spiritual medicine - Jade Heart Ganoderma."

Wei Tu looked at the two spiritual herbs and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

With these two magical herbs in hand, even if the plan to swallow up Xue's Business fails when he returns to Lei Ze Continent this time, it will not be considered a "failure".

"Although Xiangluo grass is not considered a precious commodity among the sixth-grade high-quality spiritual medicines, its grade is worth at least eighty to ninety mid-grade spiritual crystals."

"As for the Jade Heart Ganoderma..."

"This medicine has a mild nature. In addition to being used as the main ingredient in refining the Emperor's Heart Pill, it can also be swallowed directly..."

Wei Tu's eyes were filled with hesitation as he played with the jade box that contained the magical medicine, unable to make up his mind.

"Emperor's Heart Pill" is a famous elixir in the spiritual world. It not only has the "miraculous effect" of helping cultivators break through the realm, but also can purify the cultivator's magic power and expand the capacity of the cultivator's dantian.

However, at the moment, Wei Tu wanted to swallow this elixir directly to break through his current realm, rather than delaying the time and then refining the "Huang Xin Dan", a mid-level elixir.

First, he did not have the recipe for the "Emperor's Heart Pill". There was one in the Human Ancestor Hall, but it required a certain amount of merit points to redeem it.

The "Emperor's Heart Pill" is a rare elixir, different from the "Yu Ning Pill" and "Xu Feng Pill" which can be copied and refined in large quantities. If he has no chance in the future, he may only be able to refine this pill once.

From this point of view, collecting the "Jade Heart Ganoderma" and using it as the main ingredient for refining the "Emperor Heart Pill" in the future does not seem to be cost-effective.

Secondly, before entering the Wanling Fairy City, he also wanted to increase his existing realm strength as much as possible.

An improvement in a small realm is also an improvement!

“There is nothing wrong with saving money, but if you just keep being a miser, you will never achieve anything great in your life!”

After hesitating for a moment, Wei Tu finally made up his mind. He raised his hand and took out the "Jade Heart Ganoderma" in the box, and slowly refined this sixth-grade medium-quality spiritual medicine with his magic power.

Half a day later, the coral-shaped "Jade Heart Ganoderma" in his hand slowly turned into a ball of colorful spiritual liquid, and under the push of his magic power, it entered his Dantian.

The next moment, the sea of ​​magic power in Wei Tu's dantian suddenly boiled over like a tide, causing the solid realm barrier before his Void Refining Infant to be weakened a bit instantly, becoming like a thin film that seemed to be broken with a single poke.

But it only “seems”.

Breaking through a realm is not something that can be achieved overnight.

Breaking through each of these "high-level" realms, such as Lianxu, Heti, and Mahayana, is harder than ascending to heaven.

Not to mention - from the time Wei Tu was promoted to the Lianxu realm to the present, only forty or fifty years have passed.

If it were someone else, forty or fifty years would not be enough to consolidate one's realm, let alone make another breakthrough.

Fortunately, Wei Tu practiced both magic and body.

At the moment of breaking through the sixth level of body refining, when the essence of his life leaped into "true spirit", it also indirectly increased the strength of his magic power and consolidated the realm of cultivation, making him not much different from an experienced cultivator.

He completed the journey that took the old monk hundreds of years to complete in less than one tenth of the time.

Wow! Wow! Wow!
Wei Tu closed his eyes, clenched his teeth, and began to use his spiritual consciousness to stir up the huge spiritual tide of magic power in his dantian, and attacked the realm barrier in front of him with all his strength.

In the repeated impact of magic power.

The solid boundary barrier gradually "loosens".

until--

On the tenth day.

With a "swish" sound and the sound of tearing silk, the realm barrier that was blocking Wei Tu was finally broken.

Countless magical powers surged out from it and were absorbed by the Lianxu Magic Infant suspended above it. In this instant, its green infant body grew several inches longer, and its face became fuller, with an attractive blush after "eating and drinking enough".

"The initial stage of refining emptiness has been "completed". "

Wei Tu's eyes sparkled as he felt his Dantian had 20% more magic power than before.

In addition, he also felt that his magic power had been cleansed of impurities and seemed to be more "pure" than before.

Needless to say, this is the miraculous effect of "Yu Xin Zhi".

"Unfortunately, the time is still too short. If it were extended to one or two hundred years, I would be able to break through the peak of the initial stage of refining emptiness and then return to Qingyang Valley..."

Wei Tu sighed softly and looked into the distance at Master Su Xin’s cave.

The pure yin in this woman's body could greatly help him break through to the "middle stage of refining emptiness" in one go.

But unfortunately, he is only at the "great success" stage of the initial stage of refining the void, and is still one small realm away from the "peak" stage of the initial stage of refining the void.

It cannot happen overnight.

Of course, it is not impossible to achieve success in one go. He can also use certain alchemy methods to extract the pure spiritual power in the "Xiangluo Grass" to help himself break through again...

However, if he continued to break through in this way, it would inevitably damage the "excellent foundation" that he had worked so hard to build, which would be a loss-making move.

“The next time I come to Qingyang Valley, it will be when I break through to the middle stage of Refining Void!” Wei Tu stood up from the hall, flicked his sleeves, and a look of confidence emerged on his face.

……

After his realm breakthrough, Wei Tu would no longer stay in Qingyang Valley.

After obtaining some recent intelligence about the Demon Cloud Sect from Master Su Xin, he left Qingyang Valley and prepared to head directly to Wanling Fairy City.

But soon after leaving "Qingyang Valley"——

Wei Tu was immediately attracted by the sudden battle between cultivators that broke out near the border of the Divine Fire Fairyland.

But he lost interest after just a few glances.

Just like before, this time the border conflict was instigated by alien races led by the Liuyun clan.

Although the humans of the Divine Fire Immortal Realm were relegated to defending their positions, they were more than capable of resisting these border conflicts, and repeatedly destroyed the attacks of these alien armies.

If a human cultivator was in trouble, as a human, Wei Tu would consider helping, but now, he would not waste his limited time on these meaningless things.

He tapped his toes lightly, concealed his figure, and quietly flew away from the edge of the battlefield.

However, soon after leaving the battlefield, he couldn't help but let out a light "eh", raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked towards a barren mountain quite far away from the main battlefield.

A great battle among cultivators also broke out in this barren mountain, but the scale of the battle was far from comparable to that of the main battlefield, and the aura of the cultivators there was mostly at the level of Divine Transformation or Nascent Soul.

Normally, Wei Tu would not pay much attention to such a trivial matter.

But what was a coincidence was that he actually discovered one or two old friends from the atmosphere here.

A golden light flashed in his eyes. He raised his head and looked towards the barren mountain, spying on the movements on the battlefield.

More than a dozen human cultivators at the God Transformation and Nascent Soul stages are joining forces to fight against two God Transformation cultivators from the Mountain Ghost clan and one God Transformation cultivator from the Fu Jiao clan.

However, the human cultivators, who outnumbered others, did not gain the upper hand. Instead, they were overwhelmed by the three alien gods. In a short period of time, all of them were covered in wounds.

It’s not that these human monks are weak.

Instead, each of these three alien gods has reached the late stage of the god transformation realm, and one of them has even reached the peak of the god transformation realm, and has a broken sixth-level spiritual treasure in his hand.

"It's fate." Wei Tu smiled slightly, his gaze fixed on the two Divine Transformation cultivators among the group of human cultivators.

These two men, one looked like a young man from a noble family, dressed in fine clothes, and the other was a rough-eyed man wearing a hemp robe. They were exactly the "old friend" he had just sensed.

This "young man from a noble family" doesn't matter. We just have a small friendship, so it doesn't matter whether I save him or not.

But this "rough-eyed man" is different...

When he first came to the spiritual world, he owed this person a huge favor that he had yet to repay.

But just as Wei Tu was about to take action.

Suddenly, he realized something, raised his eyebrows, and took back the magic treasure in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, at this point, if you don't use that secret technique, you and I will have a hard time returning alive from this expedition."

The big man with rough eyes shouted this sentence breathlessly.

As soon as these words fell, the cultivator named Jiang, who looked like a nobleman, nodded slightly, raised his hand and patted his chest, then he pulled out a rib as clean as jade from it.

Then he opened his mouth and spat out several mouthfuls of blood, which poured onto the ribs.

The next moment, the ribs glowed with spiritual light, and after a beast roar came out from it, it instantly grew hundreds of times in size, and fine flesh, tendons and bones grew on the bones, transforming into a giant unicorn that was completely yellow.

As soon as this unicorn appeared.

The situation on the field was reversed in an instant.

With a roar, he moved as fast as lightning, and suddenly appeared above the head of the mountain ghost who was at the peak of the spirit transformation stage.

From the time when the monk surnamed Jiang pulled out the ribs and performed the secret technique to the time when the giant beast approached, less than a breath of time occurred. Therefore, although the Mountain Ghost monk who was at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm noticed the unusual movements of the monk surnamed Jiang, he was completely unable to react.

The next moment, the unicorn-shaped beast suddenly took a step forward, and the magical shield of the mountain ghost tribe's deity was easily shattered like paper.

Afterwards, under this tremendous force, the flesh and blood of the mountain ghost clan's incarnation from below his right shoulder to his waist was trampled into meat paste, and his vitality was severely damaged in an instant.

"How is this possible?" The mountain ghost clan's incarnation was horrified, and he hurriedly fled with half of his body supported. He looked at the body of the unicorn with disbelief.

However, the giant unicorn did not let the mountain ghost cultivator go. Holding the idea that "it is better to cut off one finger than to hurt five fingers", it began to pursue the mountain ghost cultivator relentlessly.

Not long after, the mountain ghost clan's deity was on the verge of despair and on the brink of death.

It was precisely because he had anticipated this scene that Wei Tu, who was planning to take action to resolve the crisis of his old friend, took back his spiritual treasure and did not get involved in the battlefield.

But at this moment.

The mountain ghost tribe's incarnation seemed to have made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and offered a yellow talisman.

The next moment, an astonishing wave of magical power burst out from the yellow talisman, and it condensed into an incomparably huge magical hand, which descended from the sky and grabbed the unicorn beast fiercely.

This magical hand came out.

The unicorn that had made great contributions just now suddenly became like an ordinary beast. With a light pinch, its flesh and blood disappeared and it returned to its original "rib" appearance.

When this secret method was broken, the cultivator named Jiang spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pu wow" sound. His breath suddenly dropped and his face turned extremely pale.

However - even so, the power of this magical hand was not lost too much, and it immediately moved forward with unabated momentum, grabbing towards the cultivator named Jiang and the rough-eyed man, as if intending to use this blow to completely eliminate these two human gods.

And, even more surprising is——

Under the spiritual pressure of this powerful hand, the cultivator named Jiang and the big man with rough eyes seemed to be imprisoned, and even their escape was difficult to achieve.

"Brother Ma, I'm afraid you and I will die here this time."

The cultivator surnamed Jiang had a deathly pale face and laughed miserably.

The big man with rough eyes said nothing, with a grim expression on his face, he kept making hand gestures and made his last struggle.

But the next moment.

Just when the powerful hand was finally approaching.

The monk surnamed Jiang and the burly man, who were ready to die, suddenly discovered that a monk in a green robe with a restrained aura had appeared in front of them out of nowhere.

Next, as the green-robed monk slightly raised his hand, the magical power that was irresistible to them was easily dissipated into nothingness.

Including the mountain ghost clan's incarnation god who was controlling the magical hand in the distance, his eyebrows were instantly pierced by this man's fingers and he died on the spot.

"This person is..."

"he is……"

When a dozen or so human cultivators saw this, they were stunned for a moment, with an expression of disbelief on their faces. They then began to ask questions, asking the elders and teachers around them.

"That's... Senior Wei."

"Senior Wei from the Qingling Sect."

Only the monk surnamed Jiang, with a look of reminiscence in his eyes, revealed Wei Tu's name and origins. (End of this chapter)
