I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

"Damn it! This girl didn't fall for it."

On the other side, Elder Lan, who was leaving angrily with a wave of his sleeves, had a completely gloomy expression on his face when the light of his escape fell on the entrance of his cave.

It was exactly as Golden Silkworm Snow Girl had expected.

This time he looked for the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl and asked her to go with him to the Lei Ze Continent to find Wei Tu. He did have bad intentions.

Wei Tu first dragged his feet on joining the Jingwang Society and stood him up, then deliberately set a trap for him, causing him to be reprimanded by the Dark King and lose face...

Although these incidents were not a big grudge, they were enough to make him hate Wei Tu deeply.

Today, Wei Tu’s whereabouts are unknown and there is a 90% chance that he is dead. He cannot avenge this hatred, so naturally he has to pass it on to Wei Tu’s confidante in Dangyang Mountain - the Golden Silkworm Snow Girl.

It's a pity that he started off badly. The Golden Silkworm Snow Girl was too vigilant and was not fooled by him.

"However, there is no need to rush. This golden silkworm snow girl is different from Wei Tu. She has ordinary qualifications and combat power. This elder will have other opportunities to kill her in the future..."

Elder Lan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled coldly.

……

Time flies, time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was the year of Jiazi when Wei Tu accidentally entered the "small spiritual world".

And this year, there was finally movement in Wei Tu's training room, which had been silent for a long time.

Several whirlpools of spiritual energy appeared out of nowhere and began to frantically absorb the surrounding spiritual energy. They grew bigger and bigger, and in just a moment, they had spread over a hundred miles and affected a thousand miles.

The thick spiritual energy gradually crystallized under the pressure of the spiritual energy vortex and fell into the cave where Wei Tu was like a rain of fine spiritual stones.

This phenomenon lasted for more than half a month.

It was not until a terrifying pressure burst out from the cave that it gradually stopped.

"Middle stage of Refining Void? Is he trying to break through to the middle stage of Refining Void during this retreat? And he succeeded?"

In the Deng clan's land in Qushan, the horse-faced old man, the old woman with a snake staff, and the alluring young woman looked towards the towering palace not far away. At this moment, all of them had expressions of surprise and disappointment on their faces.

The master who "controls" the three of them is becoming stronger and stronger. This news is not good news for them.

"Heh! He has the help of his Taoist partner who is at the peak of Void Refining. Isn't it normal for him to break through to the middle stage of Void Refining now?"

The charming young woman rolled her eyes and said this with a hint of sourness.

——Although Da Yuanshuang’s virginity had been “exposed” by the horse-faced old man, in the communication between the three of them, they were still accustomed to calling Wei Tu and Da Yuanshuang “Daoist companions”.

After all, this title has not been denied by Dayuanshuang.

However, what he said did make sense. The old man with the horse face and the old woman with the snake staff nodded secretly and no longer thought about the reason for Wei Tu's breakthrough.

"A period of sixty years has passed. This cultivator has broken through to the middle stage of the Void Refining Stage. I wonder if that female cultivator... has broken through to the half-step fusion stage?"

The three horse-faced old men's eyes flashed slightly and they began to discuss the matter.

Only a cultivator who has reached half a step toward fusion has the legitimate right to borrow the power of the Tu Ling Kingdom’s cross-border teleportation array.

In other words, only after Da Yuanshuang succeeds in breaking through and advancing to the "half-step fusion", can the three of them be truly "liberated" and send Wei Tu and Da Yuanshuang out of the country with courtesy.

“With the help of the Holy Spirit Stone, the difficulty of mastering the laws is greatly reduced, but it is still too difficult to expect to master the laws and advance to the half-step fusion in a period of sixty years…”

The three shook their heads and were not very optimistic about Da Yuanshuang who had been in seclusion for many years.

but--

Right now.

A graceful figure appeared in front of the three of them. The woman's blue skirt fluttered in the wind, and her crystal-clear jade body exuded a pressure that far exceeded the peak of the realm of refining emptiness.

“Half a step to fusion…” The old man with a horse face looked up, stunned and incredulous.

"Meet the master."

The old woman with the snake staff and the charming young woman's expressions changed slightly, and they immediately stood up and saluted, not daring to be negligent.

"Follow me." Da Yuanshuang didn't say much. She just lowered her eyes to glance at the three people, then flicked her jade sleeves, flew out of the hall and headed towards Weitu Cave.

See this scene.

The three horse-faced old men looked at each other, then immediately followed.

"Who are these two men and women?"

The three of them asked the same question in their minds again.

They had seen many ascended cultivators in the small spiritual world, but few were as gifted as Wei Tu and Da Yuan Shuang.

Especially the Great Abyss Frost...

It took only half a century to break through the "half-step fusion" and successfully mastered the "rules and laws".

This is rare in the history of the Tuling Kingdom.

……

"Half-step fusion..."

Outside the cave, Wei Tu was briefly distracted when he saw Da Yuanshuang coming to congratulate him.

This time, he was stranded in the "small spiritual world", and he had already made plans to practice here for hundreds of years.

However, he did not expect that Da Yuanshuang's progress in cultivation was far beyond his imagination.

He broke through to the "middle stage of refining emptiness", and this woman also successfully broke through to the "half-step fusion" during this period of time.

"Friend Wei, have you underestimated me?" Seeing Wei Tu's expression, Da Yuanshuang, who had successfully broken through, had a face as calm as water, but at this moment, he was quite proud in his heart.

After being humiliated in front of Wei Tu for so long, this was the first time she got back at him.

"I have always been known as a genius in the Four-Armed Ape Tribe. And the Four-Armed Ape Tribe is one of the Ten Spirit Tribes that ranks far above you humans..." Da Yuanshuang stated this sentence simply.

"The four-armed ape tribe..." Upon hearing this, Wei Tu nodded without any debate.

When Fairy Xuanling was still around, the human race had two Mahayana masters who could compete with the four-armed ape tribe.

Nowadays, the already declining human race in the spiritual world is indeed far inferior to the Four-Armed Ape Clan. The Fog Ghost Clan that they "support" has already caused a lot of headaches for the high-level human race in the spiritual world.

The Quadruped Clan is similar to the Thunder Peng Clan and is a small race in number.

Dayuanshuang was able to stand out among the four-armed ape tribe and bear the title of a genius. His qualifications and roots must be first-class among all the tribes in the spiritual world.

As for the "prodigies" of the three great hegemonic clans...

In the past, Wei Tu might have thought that Dayuan Shuang was far away from these people. But now, from the actual situation, Dayuan Shuang is not weaker than these people.

It’s just that this woman didn’t have any resources like the “Holy Spirit Stone” to help her.

"It's Wei's fault for being short-sighted."

Wei Tu smiled faintly and admitted his mistake.

After hearing this, although Da Yuanshuang was still very proud, she couldn't continue talking about this point, as it would make her look vain.

She didn't realize that at this moment, she had regarded Wei Tu as a friend, rather than an enemy who used the "Blood Curse Secret Book" to force her to submit and sign a master-servant spiritual contract.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two got back to the topic.

"Now, the Dingyuan Palace that you and I founded has gained some fame in the Tuling Kingdom. Most of the Tuling Kingdom's cultivators no longer think that you and I are foreign cultivators..."

"The time has come to teleport to the Holy Spirit Kingdom."

Wei Tu talked about his "achievements" in Guangling County over the years.

Hearing this, Da Yuanshuang was secretly impressed. With her intelligence, she could certainly think of a way to deal with this matter, but when it comes to the specific implementation stage, she would definitely not be able to be as comprehensive as Wei Tu.

"However, before we leave, you and I must collect more of these Holy Spirit Stones..." Da Yuanshuang was a little reluctant to leave this precious land, the "Small Spirit World".

Although he left the Earth Spirit Country via its transnational teleportation array and went to the Holy Spirit Country instead of leaving the "Small Spirit World", but... he had finally taken root in the Earth Spirit Country and now that he was leaving suddenly, he would inevitably lose an opportunity to make a fortune.

"This place is called the Small Spirit Realm, but it is actually the Ancient Demon Realm. Fellow Daoist Dayuan should be clear about this..."

Compared with Dayuanshuang, Wei Tu was much calmer and was not at all blinded by his greed for the Holy Spirit Stone.

This is not to say that he is more rational than Dayuanshuang.

Rather, he was confident that as he had the destiny of "late bloomer", the half-step fusion and fusion states were not his end point. There was no need to be greedy and ruin his future at this moment.

"Friend Wei, what you said is correct."

Da Yuanshuang hesitated for a moment, then nodded in praise.

She is now halfway through the fusion, and the Holy Spirit Stone is no longer an important resource for her on the road.

Since Wei Tu can remain rational, she will not lose her mind on this matter.

……

There is advance arrangement of the Weitu.

Soon, Da Yuanshuang's title of marquis in the Tuling Kingdom was on the right track.

Da Yuanshuang in Jinglei City was quietly waiting for the enthronement from the royal family of the Tuling Kingdom.

The "Six Kingdoms in the Marsh" of the small spiritual world all have royal families.

His bloodline is from the first batch of ascended monks who ascended to the "small spiritual world".

As time went by, the power of the royal families of the six countries in Zezhong had long since declined, but because the centipede was still alive, and these royal families were willing to delegate their interests... Therefore, although there were strong people rising up in the six countries in Zezhong, they were willing to give these royal families a certain amount of respect and not replace the royal family...

Over time, the existence of the royal family and the enthronement of kings and princes became a political consensus among the six countries in Zezhong.

So far, no one has broken it.

"But this is the official statement. The real reason may be something else." Wei Tu speculated that the origin of this "political tacit understanding" should be inseparable from the ancient demon behind the six countries in Zezhong.

It allowed the six countries in Zezhong to maintain this special pattern.

While splitting, try to maintain stability...

This ensures that this breeding farm can produce a stable supply of blood and food, and does not worry about forces integrating resources to produce powerful Mahayana warriors and threaten themselves...

A few days later, the envoy from Lingyan City came to Guangling County with the royal edict of enthronement. In front of the three horse-faced old men, they enthroned Da Yuanshuang as "Marquis Dingyuan" and gave a small part of the land in Guangling County to Da Yuanshuang.

The process of becoming a marquis ends here.

Several more years passed.

At the enthronement banquet, Da Yuanshuang mentioned, intentionally or unintentionally, that he wanted to travel to the "Six Kingdoms in the Lake" to broaden his horizons and find a way to go to the spiritual world.

After all, the highest realm visible to the naked eye among the six nations in the Marsh is only the Fusion Realm, without the "Mahayana Realm" or "Tribulation Realm" that is rumored to exist in the spiritual world.

The cultivators who attended the banquet expressed their understanding of this and were not too surprised.

Firstly, there is the possibility of going to the spiritual world, and no one would be willing to waste time in the "small spiritual world".

Secondly, most of the ascending cultivators will go through the process of traveling in the "small spiritual world", and then give up their delusions and return to their fiefdoms to build up their power.

Three years later.

Public opinion and timing are both ready.

Wei Tu and Da Yuan Shuang in Tu Ling Kingdom did not waste any more time and set off immediately, using the cross-border teleportation array in Lingyan City to head to the strongest of the six countries in Zezhong - the Holy Spirit Kingdom.

"A cultivator from the Earth Spirit Nation?"

After arriving in the Holy Spirit Kingdom, Wei Tu and Da Yuan Shuang naturally got rid of their identities as "ascended monks" and became native monks of the Tu Ling Kingdom in the eyes of all the cultivators in the Holy Spirit Kingdom's capital.

This condition undoubtedly made Wei Tu and Da Yuanshuang feel less cautious in their actions.

"Wangxiandu..."

A few days later, Wei Tu found the record of "Wangxiandu" in the official library of the Holy Spirit Kingdom.

In official texts, there is nothing special about "Wangxiandu". It is just a place imagined by some bored monks to escape from the "small spiritual world" and go to the spiritual world.

There are countless places like this in the "Six Kingdoms in the Lake".

The only thing worth noting here is that it seems that ten thousand years ago, a cultivator who had left the small spiritual world really walked out of this "Wangxiandu".

His honorable title in the Holy Spirit Kingdom is "Red Immortal King".

Ten thousand years ago, the Red Immortal King traveled to "Wangxiandu" and suddenly disappeared in Wangxiandu. Since then, there has been no trace of the Red Immortal King in the Holy Spirit Country.

However, after Wei Tu's investigation, it was soon confirmed that this matter was a false accusation.

The Red Immortal King appeared several times in the Holy Spirit Kingdom eight thousand years ago and three thousand years ago. Although there were not many cultivators present, they could still tell that this cultivator was the Red Immortal King.

He did not leave the "small spiritual world", but just lived in seclusion in the small spiritual world for some reasons.

"If Wang Xiandu is fake, then the story of the Red Immortal King going to the Spirit World is completely fictitious... But if Wang Xiandu is real... then it is possible that this cultivator has really been to the Spirit World..."

Wei Tu's eyes flashed slightly and he thought secretly.

It is not too late.

Not long after settling in the Holy Spirit Kingdom, Wei Tu and Da Yuanshuang immediately set out for the "Wangxiandu" market located on the edge of the Holy Spirit Kingdom, close to the wild world.

After arriving here.

Wei Tu immediately launched an investigation, looking for possible space tunnels or ancient teleportation arrays leading to the spiritual world in "Wangxiandu".

But the result disappointed him greatly.

Wangxiandu is almost identical to other places, without any special features.

It seemed as if the guidance of the ancient demon's broken arm was false.

However, at this moment, Wei Tu did not give up, but took out the "Life-Locking Stake" again and sacrificed it to the "Ancient Demon's Broken Arm" in order to find more accurate guidance from heaven.

He didn't believe that Lou Boyang, a "wish-seeking believer", could find a way to leave the ancient demon world. He couldn't find it.

The emperor does not bear the painstaking people.

This time, he obtained more precise guidance from the "Ancient Demon's Remaining Arm" than the three words "Wangxiandu".

In other words, it seemed that because Lou Boyang had asked the Demon Ancestor Jia Lan for help on this matter before... this demon directly copied the answer that Lou Boyang had been searching for and gave it to him.

"Please believers, help each other."

Wei Tu looked at the words written by the ancient demon's broken arm in the storage space. He was shocked at first, and then overjoyed. (End of this chapter)
