I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chen Daoyou was an old friend of his. Like him, he heard about the appearance of the "Life-Locking Pillar" and became greedy, so he went to Dingyuan Immortal City to grab the treasure...

Now, he died in this wilderness. It is conceivable that there must be some great terror and threat near this wilderness that is big enough to bury a powerful Void Refining expert.

"Is it that evil cultivator?" At the same time, when all the cultivators were astonished, Wei Tu's spiritual consciousness, which was comparable to that of the late stage of refining emptiness, had already been released and was quickly probing towards the source of the sound.

However, during this exploration, he saw nothing but the vast wilderness.

Including the aura of the deceased monk...

I didn't feel anything at all.

"This is... the rule domain of the great power in fusion." Wei Tu realized this instantly and frowned deeply.

If there is a battle, there must be a breath.

Even if one is killed instantly, it is impossible for the body to be like a blank piece of paper without a single speck of ink on it.

Such a scene that goes against common sense has only one possibility in the world of immortal cultivation, that is, the "entire area" here has been covered by the rules and laws of a powerful being.

Just like another piece of paper replacing the "white paper" in front of you, it will naturally leave no traces in the original environment.

“We’re in trouble.” Wei Tu’s expression became visibly more serious.

If it were an endless wilderness, even if these Void Refining cultivators were no match for the "evil cultivator" hiding behind the scenes and hunting, as long as they ran around, they would have a good chance of escaping the pursuit.

But the fact is, they fell into the "prison" that the evil cultivator had prepared for them long ago.

Although the prison is vast, as time goes by and the number of monks decreases, they will have no way to retreat and will have to face the threat of death.

Thinking of this, Wei Tu narrowed his eyes slightly and subconsciously clenched the [Shrinking Step Talisman] hidden in his sleeve.

This quasi-seventh-level talisman has also been infused with a certain amount of power of laws by the refiner of this talisman. As long as he activates this talisman, there is a certain chance that he will tear open this "rule domain", just like facing the "law suppression" of the white-haired evil cultivator.

only--

The difficulty lies in that he has no idea whether this place is the edge of the "rules and laws domain", and whether after tearing open this "rules and laws domain", he will be the opponent of the evil cultivator behind the scenes.

If this place was not at the edge, and he rashly tore open the "rule domain", when the power of the law in the [Shrinking Talisman] was exhausted, he would be swallowed up by this "rule domain" sooner or later...

"With my strength alone, I should not be a match for the evil cultivator behind the scenes." Wei Tu had a clear mind and was not reckless.

Of course, he was certain that Madam Fei's "master", or the evil cultivator behind the scenes who set up this "rule domain", was not at the level of fusion... but he did not think that this cultivator's strength was weak.

It can make the red-robed old man who is half a step away from fusion surrender.

He must have the power to crush and shock this cultivator.

Today, the "rule and law domain" that he carefully arranged outside Dingyuan Immortal City undoubtedly proves this point.

"It's a pity that Da Yuanshuang is alone... he left first." Wei Tu frowned secretly. He secretly joined this smuggling team with the purpose of finding Da Yuanshuang, who has high "stress resistance".

Unexpectedly, this woman was a lone ranger and did not form a group at this critical moment, causing him to miscalculate.

"At this point, the only hope for us is to cooperate sincerely and survive here."

On the other side, the strongest half-grown dwarf, the pockmarked old man, also reached a cooperation with the middle-aged Taoist couple during the discussion.

next moment.

Four pairs of eyes looked towards Wei Tu at the same time.

Under this gaze, Wei Tu, who was thinking, quickly came back to his senses, his face changed slightly, and he vaguely anticipated something.

However, before the four of them could speak.

He flicked his sleeves and directly released the pressure of his spiritual consciousness at the "late stage of refining emptiness".

"Late stage of Refining Void?" Upon seeing this scene, the half-grown dwarf, the pockmarked old man, and the middle-aged Taoist couple were stunned for a moment, and then fear appeared in their eyes.

At this critical moment, offending such a powerful late-stage refining void master who is hiding deeply is not a good thing for them.

However, before they could explain.

Then they saw Wei Tu and the "female cultivator" whom they had just excluded had fled into the air, leaving behind only a very dissatisfied snort.

"Those two are actually in the same group?"

A few people realized it later.

"Since those two Daoists have already left... according to the order of realms and cultivation, after the death of Suo, Daoist Cao will take the initiative to release his aura and help us find a way out..."

Not long after, a faint threatening voice sounded among the four people, directly targeting the middle-aged Taoist couple.

……

After getting away from the four half-grown dwarfs.

Wei Tu and Xu Qingxuan also gradually slowed down their escape and landed on the ground again.

However, in the blink of an eye, the scene around them suddenly changed, becoming completely different from before, and it was difficult to find the way they came.

"It really is the rules and law domain of the great power." Xu Qingxuan was not surprised when he saw this change. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had let go of something.

The most terrifying thing is always the unknown.

Although the current "rules and laws" are difficult to deal with with her strength, it is still ten or a hundred times better than facing unknown dangers.

"Whether it is the three great clans or the ten spirit clans, their descendants have difficulty in overcoming the situation when facing a powerful fusion master, and they can hardly defeat a powerful master in the upper realm... Now, this cultivator has set up this rule domain to deal with us, which shows that... his cultivation level should not be in the fusion realm."

Xu Qingxuan's beautiful eyes flickered, and she spoke again, confirming Wei Tu's previous idea.

"So, if you want to save your life, you can either take the initiative to attack, break the rules and domain, and kill the evil cultivator behind the scenes... or wait and see, and wait for others to break through..."

Xu Qingxuan said again.

The "others" she was referring to were the "Da Yuan Shuang" who had left before them. With this woman's background and knowledge, even without knowing the information provided by Wei Tu, she could have guessed most of what was happening.

"Others?" Upon hearing this, Wei Tu's heart moved, and he immediately thought of "Master Chai" behind Deputy Envoy Suo.

This time, since Master Chai wanted to "kill with a borrowed knife", he wanted to use their smuggling team to deal with and weaken the evil cultivators hiding in the dark, and then reap the benefits.

So, in other words—

As long as they stay in this "rules and laws" long enough, Master Chai will come here to "rescue" them!

"Yes, Fairy Xu is right."

"You and I are at a low level. To that evil cultivator, we are not the best candidates to refine the 'Life-Locking Pillar' and advance to the Fusion Realm... As long as we hide long enough, we will have a chance of survival."

After figuring out the thoughts of "Master Chai" and the "evil cultivator behind the scenes", Wei Tu's expression relaxed and he was no longer so worried about his own safety.

In a word.

Even if the sky falls, it will be the strong ones in the "late stage of refining void" such as Da Yuanshuang and the half-grown dwarf who will hold it up first, not him who is in the early stage of refining void.

Next.

The two of them said nothing more.

After looking at each other, they disappeared in a flash, separated by dozens of miles, and hid themselves using their own methods.

At this time, Wei Tu also began to use his "life force" to wrap his entire body and hide himself completely.

Life force is a force that is comparable to the power of rules, or even higher in level.

Under the cover of this "life force", Wei Tu's existence and breath soon became vague and close to nothingness in this "rules and laws domain".

"What a powerful way to suppress your breath."

Seeing this from a distance, Xu Qingxuan suddenly had a new understanding of Wei Tu.

……

Time passes slowly.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

Wei Tu, who concealed his breath and traces, also accidentally caught a glimpse of the pockmarked old man who came here to explore the way, and the middle-aged Taoist couple.

What was strange was that the pockmarked old man, who had previously had the upper hand, was now being driven and controlled by the middle-aged Taoist couple, and forced to explore the way ahead.

This scene made Wei Tu even more certain of his and Xu Qingxuan's judgment - the evil cultivator behind the scenes would first target the cultivators in the "late stage of refining emptiness"!

Otherwise, if the half-grown dwarf was still alive, this pockmarked old man would not have fallen into such a predicament.

Another few days passed.

Some new people have been added to the "rules and laws domain".

But without exception, the first cultivators to disappear were all cultivators in the late stage of the Refinement Void Realm.

During this period.

Xu Qingxuan, who was hiding, was also discovered by some monks and was forced to flee from his hiding place.

However, this woman was quite righteous. Even when she encountered threats from some cultivators in the late stage of the Refinement Realm, she never revealed the existence of the Guardian Map.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with Xu Qingxuan's powerful escape skills.

Although he was no match for these late-stage Void Refining cultivators, he was able to escape danger by relying on the secret techniques of the Sky Fox Clan...

In addition, with the evil cultivators behind the scenes constantly "hunting" these late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, this woman is unlikely to encounter any life-and-death danger.

Often they escape after a day or two.

The late-stage refining void cultivator who was chasing her disappeared inexplicably.

half a month later.

The number of new Void Refiners appearing in the "Domain of Rules and Laws" is decreasing.

Including those Void Refinement cultivators who had been "imprisoned" before, some of them started to disappear in the middle stage of Void Refinement.

See this scene.

It was not difficult for Wei Tu to understand that "the big fish have been caught" and the evil cultivator behind the scenes was ready to close the net and run away.

“At this moment, it is probably time for Master Chai to take action.” Wei Tu raised his head and looked in the direction of Dingyuan Immortal City. His gaze seemed to have crossed layers of void.

……

It was exactly as Wei Tu expected.

After sensing that the evil cultivator behind the scenes had the intention of stopping, "Master Chai" in the underground black market of Dingyuan Immortal City, and the puppet man with blood-red horns on his head who controlled the old man in straw raincoat puppet, also set out at this moment and, with the help of the "ultra-long-distance teleportation array", took the initiative to enter the "rules and laws domain" of the evil cultivator behind the scenes.

"This evil cultivator is quite good at playing tricks. I'm afraid any cultivator who strays into this place will think that they are being held captive by a powerful being..."

Master Chai stepped into the "Domain of Rules and Laws" with a relaxed demeanor, walking in the air. While looking at everything in front of him, he talked to the Taoist Yishi beside him with a smile on his face.

"Although the Rule Domain is not exclusive to the Fusion Realm cultivators, in the eyes of other cultivators, the Rule Domain is only available to cultivators above the Fusion Realm... It is equivalent to being exclusive to the Fusion Realm... After making a mistake, it is only natural to feel fear."

Taoist Yishi shook his head and replied.

These words have just been spoken.

A shadow suddenly appeared, approached Yishi Taoist silently, and swallowed up the cultivator.

However, Master Chai, who saw this scene, was not much moved. His face was calm, his hands were clasped together, and he chanted the Buddha's name at this moment.

"It's fine for me to say this. But you, the junior, are taking it too far..." A trace of disdain flashed in Chief Chai's eyes as he muttered to himself.

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and tore forward.

With a "click", a transparent thin curtain was instantly wrinkled by him and broke directly in the middle.

Behind this transparent thin curtain is the same scenery as the previous "rules and laws domain".

But, it is different from this.

At this moment, in front of Master Chai, there appeared a tall and thin monk wearing a blood-stained robe and with a pale face. He glanced at the Taoist Yishi who was resisting the erosion of his magic power and was about to be refined into a "Life-Locking Stake" in front of him, and then looked at Master Chai who broke through the "Rules and Laws Domain", and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

After all, after all, having succeeded so many times, this was the first time he encountered someone like Master Chai who could easily break through the powerful refining emptiness of his "rules and laws".

"You also have a domain of rules and laws?" The tall and thin monk said in a hoarse voice, his eyes fixed on the hand of Master Chai, which held an illusory golden Buddha statue the size of an infant's fist.

Just now, it was this "golden Buddha statue" that helped Master Chai break through his "rules and domains".

"Young man, since you have it, why can't I have it too?"

Master Chai sneered and raised his hand to grab the void in front of him.

The next moment, a solid golden magical hand emerged from the void and grabbed the tall and thin monk.

"Damn it!" Seeing this sudden attack, the tall and thin monk who was refining a Taoist stone suddenly changed his expression and hurriedly made a hand gesture, preparing to dodge.

However, this golden magical hand seemed to contain an inexplicable power of confinement, locking his body firmly in place, making it impossible for him to move even an inch.

At this time, the tall and thin monk was about to lose the last time to fight the enemy.

His face looked grim, and he immediately flicked his sleeves, summoned a blue shield, and moved forward to block.

With a loud "boom", the two collided.

But what is surprising is that this blue shield emitting the power of a sixth-grade top-grade spiritual treasure could not withstand the destruction of this golden magical hand. Under its heavy pressure, the spiritual restrictions on its surface began to crack inch by inch.

"Are you a reincarnation?" At this moment, the tall and thin monk suddenly realized how terrifying the chief monk Chai in front of him was.

Although it was difficult for him to kill him directly as a true combined powerhouse, just exerting 10% or 20% of his strength in life would be enough to threaten him with death...

The crushing and suffocating feeling of this kind of strength is impossible for a Void Refinement cultivator to experience.

Of course, this was also his fault. He was too greedy this time and refined too many "late stage of refining emptiness" lock life stakes, which consumed 60% to 70% of his magic power.

"Although the fusion is powerful, you underestimate me."

The tall and thin monk had a sinister look in his eyes. When the golden hand gradually crushed the aura of the blue shield in front of him, he immediately pinched the magic formula and his body blurred and turned into a black shadow, merging into the ground beneath his feet.

In less than a blink of an eye, the aura of the tall and thin monk completely disappeared into the ground, as if it had merged with the ground, and every place was the incarnation of this monk.

But when Master Chai saw this scene, he was not panicked at all, as if he had already expected that this tall and thin monk would play such a trick.

He snorted coldly and stomped the ground with his right foot.

With a loud "bang", the ground within a radius of thousands of feet, with Chai Shouzu as the center, collapsed instantly, like a dragon turning over, and twisted out waves that could only be seen on the sea surface.

Under this earth-colored wave.

Not long after, the tall and thin monk who had sneaked into the ground spat out a mouthful of blood with a "puff" sound and broke away from it.

"Who are you? We have no grudges in the past and no enmity today, so why do you want to kill me?" The tall and thin monk's blood boiled, and he stared with resentful eyes at Master Chai, who was floating in the air, high above, like a descended god or Buddha.

But for that.

Master Chai did not answer.

He used his supernatural powers again, moved his lips slightly, and uttered the six-character Buddhist mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum".

Every word of the mantra turned into invisible sound waves and penetrated deeply into the body of this tall and thin monk.

By the end of the sentence, the word "moo" was formed.

The tall and thin monk's body glowed with golden light, and the Buddhist six-word mantra turned into numerous spiritual restrictions, imprisoning him firmly.

"You are an evil cultivator. I will kill you today to protect the people!" There was no joy or sadness on Chai Shouzuo's face. He clasped his hands together, raised his right hand slightly, and clapped it down again.

In the blink of an eye, a giant golden palm hundreds of feet in size took shape in the air, exuding unparalleled power, and slowly suppressed the tall and thin monk who was imprisoned.

but--

That's when.

A faint, blurry black shadow suddenly emerged from behind Master Chai. It opened its bloody mouth, revealing clearly visible shark-like sharp teeth, and bit directly towards Master Chai's neck.

Click!Click!
There was blood on Chai Shouzu's neck.

"A sixth-rank body cultivator?" The blurry black shadow was slightly startled, and looking at this body that was harder than gold and stone, he suddenly felt fear.

However, this slight delay allowed Master Chai, who had been ambushed, to react instantly. He turned around like an angry King Kong and slapped the blurry black shadow fiercely.

Bang.

The blurry black shadow was pulled from the void into reality by this palm force and nailed to the ground.

At this moment, his face was completely revealed, and it was exactly the same as the tall and thin monk who was imprisoned by the six-word mantra of Buddhism.

However, what is even more shocking is.

Both of them have Dharma bodies, and are not some kind of magical creation.

"This evil magic is quite good, young man. Tell me the secret of this evil magic and I will spare your life." Chai Shouzu was slightly surprised, then a look of great joy appeared on his face as he pressed the question.

"My fellow Taoist, it seems that you are in trouble."

"If you are willing to let me go... I might be able to help you deal with one or two things."

Suddenly, a faint voice sounded in the void.

The sound was like a silver bell, clear and pleasant to the ear, but no one knew where it came from.

"Da Yuan Shuang? You are not dead yet?"

Hearing this voice, Master Chai raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately knew who the owner of this voice was.

But after realizing this, his eyes immediately glowed golden and he looked around with a serious expression.

However, no matter how hard he looked, he could not find the hidden space or the trace of Dayuan Shuang. (End of this chapter)
