I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals
Chapter 978 Close Combat, Banishing the Female Cultivator
This cemetery of the three races is indeed worthy of being the place where the combined great power of the Dark Serpent Clan, the Wood Lizard Clan, and the Crimson Dragon Clan has passed away. Not only is the spiritual energy within it overwhelming, but it also contains a rich aura of dragon bloodline, and the combined dragon might tyrannically suppresses the surrounding area.
It is not a "rule domain" of the combined realm, but it is even better than the rule domain.
Fortunately, Wei Tu had recently made another breakthrough in his body refinement realm; otherwise, simply entering this place would have been extremely difficult, let alone flying freely inside.
In addition, Wei Tu also vaguely sensed traces of corpse refinement in some tombs. It was clear that the cultivators of the three races, like the "Yu family" that Wei Tu had encountered before, had refined the physical bodies of their ancestors after their deaths into corpse refinement of the same level to protect their families.
This is the essence of every race that has existed for an extremely long time in the spirit world.
No wonder, after he repeatedly reminded Aunt Zuo of the potential threat Lou Boyang might pose in the future, the girl appeared "absent-minded" and even eager to try.
Ordinary rogue cultivators at the Fusion Realm, at best, possess the strength of the mid-Fusion Realm. Even if they have the ability to defeat the living ancestors of the three races, they would not have the ability to deal with the seventh-order refined corpses that these three races have accumulated over many years in this secret realm.
However, this insight only strengthened Wei Tu's conviction that there was more to the story in this "incident" in the secret realm than met the eye, and that there was a strong possibility that it was the work of an insider.
After all, if they were truly facing a major crisis that even a Nascent Soul Ancestor would find difficult to resolve, the Nascent Soul Ancestor stationed here would certainly have informed these cultivators bathing in the Dragon Transformation Pool to flee quickly...
"The truth will be revealed soon enough!"
A dozen or so breaths later, Wei Tu, who was holding the waist of the Shaluo woman, stopped flying near a rather desolate pile of rocks in the Three Clans Cemetery.
This place is the location he observed with his "Hun'e Evil Eyes," a place with abnormal spatial fluctuations.
"Is there something unusual here?" Shaluo Nu looked puzzled. She had seen this pile of rocks countless times when she worshipped the ancestors of the Dark Serpent Clan, and had never sensed that there was anything hidden here.
But the next moment.
With a gentle flap of her azure wings, Wei Tu's surroundings rapidly changed, and she found herself inside a magnificent, ancient stone palace.
Upon entering this place, the intensely rich aura of the Dragon Transformation Pool's spiritual liquid immediately assaulted the cheeks of the Shaluo woman.
Looking up, she saw a spirit pool covering dozens of miles inside the stone hall. The area above the spirit pool was shrouded in a white mist and not very clear, but under the probing of her divine sense, she quickly spotted blood-red pipes shaped like bamboo joints that pierced straight up to the dome of the stone hall, marked with words such as "A1", "A2", "B1", and "B2".
"Is this the broth used to boil the Dragon Transformation Pool's spiritual liquid? Those blood-red pipes are for supplying the spiritual liquid to the Dragon Transformation Pool inside the pavilion..."
The woman was startled. She never expected that Wei Tu, an outsider, knew so much about this secret place that even she, the princess of the Dark Serpent Clan, did not know, and had brought her here.
If she hadn't known that Wei Tu had been with her all along, she would have suspected that Wei Tu was the mastermind behind the "upheaval" in the secret realm.
However, Wei Tu still did not respond to Sha Luo Nu. He took a deep breath, activated the power of the "Hun'e Evil Eye" to the maximum, and after transforming into a ghost for a moment, he seemed to have received some answer. He then pulled Sha Luo Nu aside and plunged into the spirit pool inside the stone hall.
The spiritual liquid in the Dragon Transformation Pool within the Spirit Pool had not dried up; it was as viscous as blood, and in an instant, it soaked through the dress of the Shaluo woman, making her curvaceous body appear and disappear.
Of course, this was because the woman hadn't fully realized what was happening. If she wanted to, she could evaporate the water from her clothes in an instant and create a magical shield to prevent the spiritual liquid from the surrounding Dragon Transformation Pool from invading.
However, after glancing at Wei Tu, who was exploring the depths of the spirit pool ahead, Sha Luo Nu's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she let her dress remain soaked.
A great opportunity is right in front of her. Even if she doesn't like to take the initiative, she should still make good use of the "opportunity" created by being passive.
She thought to herself: No matter how ascetic Fellow Daoist Fu is, he can't resist the desire for the opposite sex that comes from the depths of his dragon bloodline.
But the next moment.
A scene that left the woman utterly dumbfounded unfolded.
As Wei Tu smashed open the powerful spiritual barriers beneath the spirit pool with his iron fist, the two of them quickly lost weight and fell into a natural spiritual spring with an aura quite similar to that of the stone palace's spirit pool.
At this moment, what came into their view was a stunningly beautiful woman who had removed all her clothes and was sitting in a meditative posture in the water of the spiritual spring. She had a slender figure and an ethereal beauty.
Her beautiful hair cascaded down her chest, with a few strands clinging to the corners of her lips, giving her an alluring and glamorous look.
Compared to this woman, even someone as alluring as her pales in comparison!
This sense of being "outshone" is not just about physical beauty, but also about a kind of suppression that comes from the heart and bloodline.
It was as if, after this woman was born, it was only natural that she should be superior to her and stand above her.
"Is this woman Qian Fei?" Upon seeing this, Wei Tu frowned slightly, puzzled.
When he left the "Yi San" pavilion, he thought of finding Qian Fei to "take responsibility," after all, this cultivator was a half-step Integration cultivator and the strongest cultivator among their group... but he unexpectedly found that the pavilion where Qian Fei was was empty and had long been deserted.
At that time, he suspected that the "changes" at Hualongchi were inextricably linked to Qian Fei.
“No! That’s not right. This woman’s aura is completely different from Qian Fei’s, and her physique is also quite different…” Wei Tu narrowed his eyes, looked closely for a while, and then shook his head secretly.
"Fellow Daoist, have you seen enough?"
At the same moment, a voice, tinged with anger and as melodious as a nightingale's, rang out in Wei Tu's ears.
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of powerful attacks on his soul followed.
Thin, silver snakes, as fine as cow hair, pierced through Wei Tu's protective "Water and Fire Immortal Robe" and suddenly appeared in Wei Tu's mind. They opened their mouths and emitted a deafening dragon roar, impacting Wei Tu's soul. In an instant, they transformed into clusters of silver ghostly flames, shooting towards Wei Tu's soul.
Despite the resistance of Wei Tu's soul, these silver ghostly flames failed to achieve their goal, but they quickly regained their spirituality and began to burn Wei Tu's sea of consciousness.
In an instant, Wei Tu's sea of consciousness became like a wildfire, with surging silver flames everywhere.
"What a troublesome soul attack..."
Wei Tu's expression changed slightly. He made a hand seal and immediately transformed into a "Heavenly Ghost" again, using this peak state of his divine soul to fight against the naked female cultivator who was meditating in the spiritual spring.
He moved his lips slightly, using the gray mist stirred up by his "incantation magic" to try to extinguish the silver ghostly flames.
However, this attempt was ineffective. These silver flames, like inextinguishable flames, reignited the moment they were extinguished by the gray mist.
What troubled Wei Tu even more was that, while the silver ghost fire was indeed powerful, it was far from being able to trigger the protection of the master by the golden purple destiny.
However, without relying on his Golden Purple Fate, it would undoubtedly be a very difficult task for him to get rid of these silver ghostly flames in a short period of time.
At that moment, Wei Tu also heard the painful moans of the Shaluo woman.
He opened his eyes and looked rather grim.
In less than a moment, the woman collapsed to the ground, her face contorted in pain, her hands covering her head, and she was wailing in agony.
Not long ago, the human form reverted to a snake form, its ten-foot-long tail thrashing in agony, its powerful magic tearing through the surrounding space, causing the buildings near the spiritual spring to collapse and vanish.
Clearly, without the protection of a "water and fire immortal robe" like his, the woman of the Shaluo was facing the full-force soul attack of the naked female cultivator, and she didn't even have the strength to resist for a moment.
"This fire is hard to extinguish... kill its master first!" Wei Tu made a hand seal, activating the primal power of the Hundred Weapon Ghost Clan hidden deep within his spiritual eyes. He used his divine soul to resist the silver ghost fire while his right foot stomped forward, rushing straight towards the naked female cultivator in the spiritual spring.
See this scene.
Just moments ago, the naked female cultivator, who had remained calm and in a meditative state, could no longer hide her surprise.
"The Water and Fire Immortal Robe is indeed quite effective at resisting attacks on the soul... But my secret technique is not simple either, and it even uses a wisp of soul power left by my mother... How could he withstand it so easily? And even have the power to retaliate?"
"That...that's the Hundred Weapon Ghost Clan? Isn't he a cultivator from one of the Nine Great Tribes?" The nude female cultivator noticed Wei Tu's ghostly transformation and was slightly taken aback.
But soon, she realized what was happening and remembered the secret techniques of the ancient demon ancestor level recorded in her clan.
"The Seven Eyes Technique of the Nether Cauldron? He cultivated this technique?"
The naked female cultivator's eyes narrowed slightly. In that instant, her mind raced, and she understood why Wei Tu had the ability to discover her presence here.
The art of spiritual vision is not uncommon in the spirit world, but there are only a few top-tier spiritual vision techniques.
The "Seven Eyes Technique of the Netherworld Cauldron" from the Ancient Demon Realm is undoubtedly among the top.
However, she had no time to think about it. In her panic, she flipped her hand and took out a pendant that was as beautiful as a star, trying to activate the magical protective shield of this treasure.
But—it was all too late.
From the moment Wei Tu fell into this secret place until she used her divine soul technique to attack, only half a breath had passed.
In that half-breath of time, she hastily launched a counterattack, which was a timely response... However, this was still no match for Wei Tu, a sixth-level body refiner, and his extreme speed at close range.
A loud "bang" rang out.
While she was sitting quietly inside the spiritual spring, Wei Tu, who was close by, punched her in the abdomen, sending her flying into the air. Then, dozens of punches rained down on her, causing her to vomit blood.
Only when the protective shield inside the pendant was erected did it gain a brief respite, and like a kite with a broken string, it fell into the spiritual spring.
“This boy is truly ruthless…” The naked female cultivator’s eyes revealed a hint of killing intent. From childhood to adulthood, as a noblewoman of her clan, no one had ever dared to be so disrespectful to her.
But after a moment, she managed to suppress her murderous intent.
This place is, after all, the secret realm of the Dark Serpent Clan, the Wood Lizard Clan, and the Crimson Dragon Clan. It is not her home ground. Her coming here to "steal" treasures is already against her principles. If she were to kill Wei Tu and Sha Luo Nu and create enmity, this place would probably be easy to enter but difficult to leave.
—She didn't intend to kill with her soul attack just now. Otherwise, the Shaluo woman wouldn't have just groaned in pain; she would have perished long ago under her soul attack.
Moreover, she also had many concerns about Wei Tu.
She believed that these were "seeds of fusion" secretly cultivated by the nine major tribes, and that they would most likely possess defensive treasures to resist attacks from fusion-level powerhouses, just like her... They were not as easy to kill as she had imagined.
As a half-step into the Integration Realm, the "Rule Domain" she relies on will indirectly expose her identity once she uses it. After all, even if there are identical "Rule Domains," it is impossible for them to coincidentally appear in the same secret realm.
Furthermore, the matter of slaughtering one's own clan is not a pleasant thing to hear, and if it were to be leaked, it would pose a certain threat and impact on her position within the clan.
As for her body...
This is the most trivial matter.
As a cultivator about to break through to the Integration Realm, why would she care about such trivial matters between men and women, or place too much importance on a mere physical body? In any case, even if Wei Tu could see her true appearance, he would have difficulty knowing her true identity.
"If we can't force them back, it seems there's only one way left to escape from here."
The naked female cultivator's eyes flickered slightly. She took a deep breath, intending to swallow her anger.
However, before she could even utter a sound...
Then Wei Tu, like a stubborn leech, clung to her again, and even summoned the seventh-tier incomplete treasure, the [Frosty Dragon Sword], attempting to shatter her spiritual treasure shield...
Despite the fact that her protective magic treasure remained intact under the relentless attacks, the consumption of her magical power was accelerating at a visible rate.
Seeing this, she raised an eyebrow, her desire to make peace once again overpowering her displeasure, and hurriedly said, "Fellow Daoist, please wait."
Wei Tu, who heard the voice, seemed to have anticipated this scene, and stopped his attack accordingly after hearing the words.
However, he did not retreat. He still stared at the naked female cultivator in front of him with a cold glint in his eyes, as if he would immediately take action if the woman's words did not suit his taste.
Under such intense gazes, even the nude female cultivator, who disregarded the distinction between men and women, couldn't help but feel a touch of shyness.
She glared at Wei Tu with resentment, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and immediately used her magic to conjure a dress and put it on.
"Since you can withstand my soul attack, you also have the opportunity to cooperate with me... After all, you are an outsider invited by the Dark Serpent Clan, so there is no need for you to help the Dark Serpent Clan, the Wood Lizard Clan, and the Crimson Dragon Clan by protecting their clan's treasures."
"You and I can share this treasure equally."
After dressing herself properly, the nude female cultivator exuded a more composed demeanor and spoke in a calm tone.
But the next moment, she couldn't help but feel a jolt of surprise.
Because she suddenly realized that the "silver ghost fire" she had planted in Wei Tu's sea of consciousness had been almost completely cleared out by Wei Tu during their battle just now.
This undoubtedly reduced her bargaining power in the negotiations with Wei Tu.
"Since I, Fu, am an outsider invited by the Dark Serpent Clan and have the qualification to bathe in the Dragon Transformation Pool, I will certainly not treat your theft of the three clans' treasures as nothing!"
"Furthermore, I would never stoop to your level."
Wei Tu said in a cold voice, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.
Upon hearing this, the beautiful female cultivator frowned slightly, sensing that Wei Tu was implying an insult. However, deep down, she also felt a growing sense of goodwill towards him.
Mutual support and loyalty have always been the core values of the Dragonborn race. This time, she wouldn't have resorted to such despicable means if she hadn't desperately needed the eighth-tier dragon bone.
Moreover, Wei Tu's words were also meaningful. If he didn't truly care about the three races, why would he bring Sha Luo Nu along as a burden this time?
Wouldn't it be better to sneak in, just like her?
"In that case, this treasure... can also be shared with this woman."
The naked female cultivator glanced sideways at the Shaluo woman, flicked her jade sleeve, and dispelled the soul attack on the Shaluo woman.
"This..." Upon hearing this, the woman, who had just been freed from the soul attack, was drenched in sweat, and looked fearful, immediately showed a hint of hesitation on her face.
If they didn't agree, she and Wei Tu alone wouldn't be able to do anything to this naked female cultivator; the battle just now had already proven everything.
It seems that satellite imagery has gained the upper hand...
However, it should be noted that the woman without clothes was not a body cultivator. After enduring dozens of uninterrupted close-range attacks from Wei Tu, she only suffered minor injuries!
Thus, the difference in quality is immediately apparent.
In her view, if this woman hadn't been wary of the return of the combined power of the three races, she wouldn't have suddenly made peace at this moment.
"Fellow Daoist Fu, agree to her first... play along with her. Delay until the three clan ancestors return."
The woman named Shaluo transmitted her voice, trying to persuade Wei Tu.
The words fell.
Wei Tu was finally moved, and his tense expression relaxed slightly at this moment.
"What are these three clans' treasures that would make you, fellow Daoist, go to such lengths to sneak into this place and steal them?" Wei Tu pondered for a moment before asking.
"Dragon marrow from an eighth-tier dragon bone..."
The naked female cultivator spoke softly, without hiding anything.
"However, I have already absorbed quite a bit of this treasure in this spiritual spring. The remaining amount can be divided equally among the three of us again..." The naked female cultivator made a hand seal, activating a certain restriction within the spiritual spring.
The next moment, the bottom of the spirit spring pool opened, revealing a skeleton thousands of feet in size, exuding a powerful dragon's might.
"Eighth-order dragon bone..." Upon seeing this, Wei Tu was also shocked. He finally understood why this seemingly "Qian Fei" female cultivator without clothes would go to such lengths to infiltrate this place.
Even the inferior "Demon Ancestor's Holy Blood" of the Dark Raven Tower can still create powerful ancient demon bloodlines in large quantities.
Currently, the "Dragon Marrow," considered the essence within this eighth-tier dragon bone, is of immeasurable value.
"This risky move was worth it!" Wei Tu's eyes flashed, secretly delighted.
To be honest, the problems with the secret realms of the Dark Serpent Clan and the other two clans had little to do with him. Even if he were to encounter a real crisis, he could leave again using the [Boundary-Severing Stone].
The reason they came here so decisively, bringing Shaluo with them, was that they were certain that the "upheaval" in the secret realm was likely caused by an internal traitor, and that the danger was under control, at most not exceeding the level of the Integration Realm.
Otherwise, the patriarchs of the three clans who were stationed here would have already notified them to seek refuge elsewhere.
"This is the remaining dragon marrow. Although it's not much, it shouldn't be difficult for you to rebuild your foundation with it."
The naked female cultivator raised her hand and slapped forward, causing the enormous dragon skeleton in front of her to collapse instantly, from which more than thirty drops of milky white spiritual liquid, each the size of a date pit, slowly condensed.
After speaking, she made a hand seal, dividing the thirty-odd drops of dragon bone marrow into three portions, each containing a jade bottle, and then handed two of them to Wei Tu and Sha Luo Nu.
After obtaining the dragon marrow, Wei Tu and Sha Luo Nu exchanged a glance before storing it in their respective storage artifacts.
"This amount of dragon bone marrow is far from enough."
Wei Tu's eyes flickered slightly as he spoke calmly, seemingly certain that the nude female cultivator had a "weak point" and dared not make a big move.
"Is it because he's insatiable and keeps demanding more, or did this woman in the Shaluo sect instruct him... to stall for time?"
The naked female cultivator had a somber expression.
But after thinking it over, she still flipped her hand and took out two more jade boxes, throwing them to Wei Tu and Sha Luo Nu respectively.
"The Seven Eyes Technique of the Nether Cauldron that you cultivate requires refining the soul seed of the Ghost Clan... This item is the soul core of a one-eyed Ghost Clan member that I killed many years ago... It should be of great use to you," the naked female cultivator said.
Upon hearing this, Wei Tu's heart stirred, and he immediately accepted the jade box.
However, the nun without clothes didn't say much about the jade box given to Shaluo Nu, but judging from the surprise hidden in Shaluo Nu's eyes, it was clear that the gift she gave was definitely of considerable value.
After receiving the gift.
An eerie silence fell over the three of them.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Fu does understand the principle that one can do it once or twice, but not a third time..."
The nude female cultivator sneered, immediately ignoring Wei Tu and Sha Luo Nu, flicked her jade sleeve, transformed into a streak of light, soared into the sky, and left this "secret place".
At this point, neither Wei Tu nor Sha Luo Nu pursued her further, but instead watched her leave.
Firstly, there is a difference in strength.
If they catch up, Wei Tu will be fine, but Sha Luo Nu might be in mortal danger.
The two were part of this woman's desperate plan to undermine their cause; the "eighth-tier dragon marrow" she offered as a share of the spoils greatly won them over.
Once this Jurchen is captured by the combined ancestor of the three races.
Whether they can keep the "eighth-tier dragon marrow" they obtained is still a question mark.
"Let's see how things develop... If the clan doesn't mention it, then Fellow Daoist Fu, just pretend this never happened..." Shaluo Nu gritted her teeth and spoke to Wei Tu.
In the Dark Serpent Clan, she was undoubtedly the number one prodigy in the past ten thousand years, but after the "ten thousand-year limit" was exceeded, there were still a few people in the clan lining up to obtain "fusion resources".
Therefore, she would never give up the "Eighth-Order Dragon Marrow"!
Besides, now that things have come to this, she's not stupid. Like Wei Tu, she can guess that the arrival of the nude female cultivator is most likely because someone from one of the three races has betrayed them.
That being the case...
Then she wouldn't need to risk offending that person and act so righteously.
Furthermore, she guessed that Wei Tu was like her.
Bringing her here, this "weakling," was perhaps partly to leverage her status as a princess of the Dark Serpent Clan, to mitigate the risks.
……
Half an hour later.
Wei Tu and Sha Luo returned to the "Yi San" pavilion in the secret realm, pretending that nothing had happened.
The other cultivators, lacking the tacit understanding the two had when refining the "Dragon Transformation Pool" spiritual liquid, assumed that the liquid had dried up for some other reason, or that someone else had absorbed more, and did not think much of it.
Even if some people had more ideas, due to their limited strength, they could hardly perceive the specific changes in the secret realm, and naturally could not "track" the naked female cultivator "a thousand miles away" like Wei Tu.
Soon, after an incense stick had burned.
From the depths of the secret realm, a roar resounded, seemingly from a powerful being at the Fusion Stage.
Unfortunately, due to the help of an insider and the fact that the murderer's identity was unknown, the matter could only be left unresolved.
As for searching the cultivators for the whereabouts of the "Eighth-Order Dragon Marrow"...
None of the three clans had the guts to do that.
Aside from the cultivators of the three races themselves, the "external aid" invited by the three races were all outstanding individuals from their respective races, each with a background of Integration Stage or even Mahayana Stage, making them far beyond what the three races could afford to offend...
"Is it really her?" At this moment, Wei Tu, who was meditating and cultivating in the pavilion, also spotted Qian Fei's figure with his "Hun'e Evil Eye".
There were no signs of disguise on this cultivator's body, but based on the appearance and departure time of the naked female cultivator, among the cultivators present, the only person who could possibly be that naked female cultivator was "Qian Fei".
"This female cultivator's background must be extraordinary..."
Wei Tu looked wary. He could see at a glance that Wei Tu was practicing a Demon Ancestor-level secret technique, and he could easily get help from "traitors" from the three races. Wei Tu must have a powerful force helping him.
"Fortunately, it's unlikely I'll run into this fellow in the future. Even if we become enemies, they won't hold it against me..."
Wei Tu touched his face, secretly relieved.
For safety reasons, he did not reveal his true appearance during his appearance in the Xiayang Mountains. After all, as a proud human prodigy, Wei Tu was not an unknown figure in the Spirit Realm.
One month later.
After the designated time has elapsed.
Wei Tu and Sha Luo Nu exchanged a glance and walked out of the pavilion with normal expressions.
Before long, the two of them, led by Aunt Zuo, left the secret realm and boarded the spirit boat they had come from, returning to the Dark Serpent Clan's territory.
At this point, Wei Tu was unwilling to waste any more time and cause unnecessary trouble. On the day he returned to the Dark Serpent Clan, he told Aunt Zuo that he wanted to leave the Xiayang Mountains by using the ultra-long-distance teleportation array.
The Dark Serpent Clan would not refuse such an offer, for offending Wei Tu would be seen as a "seed of fusion" among the nine major tribes.
"Unfortunately, this man surnamed Fu... is an ascetic monk. He wouldn't even give a second glance to someone as beautiful as you..."
Aunt Zuo, watching Wei Tu leave, held Sha Luo Nu's delicate hand and sighed inwardly.
“Fellow Daoist Fu is no ordinary person, so he won’t pay much attention to me.” Sha Luo Nu shook her head and replied quite seriously.
Seeing Wei Tu show no mercy and engage in close-quarters combat with the "naked woman," even with her confidence, she no longer believed she had the qualities to win Wei Tu's affections.
Love is a luxury for these "older cultivators." Cultivators who have grown up in a cruel environment can hardly retain the innocence of their childhood.
For most people who can become Daoist partners, the only path they can take is marriage.
Because of her background, she was destined to have a difficult time "marrying up" to one of the nine tribes.
Whether in the past or now.
Even if Wei Tu lowers his eyes, it is destined to be only a "short-term choice".
……
"The one surnamed Fu..."
On the other side, Qian Fei, who had followed the Supreme Elder of the Crimson Dragon Clan out of the secret realm, also had a gloomy expression at this moment.
“With that snake woman from the Dark Serpent Clan by my side in the Three Clans Secret Realm, I couldn’t kill you, but… once we’re out of the Three Clans Secret Realm…” Qian Fei sneered and crushed a dark yellow jade tablet in his hand.
Before long, a middle-aged cultivator wearing silver armor with a dragon head relief on his helmet emerged from the void and appeared in front of Qian Fei and the Supreme Elder of the Crimson Dragon Clan.
This is the first time Xiu has made an appearance.
The Supreme Elder of the Crimson Dragon Clan immediately turned pale, and a look of fear appeared in his eyes.
There's no other reason than that this is the "Hidden Dragon Guard," exclusively belonging to the Feathered Dragon Clan's royal family and the nine major tribes. Every powerful figure within it is at least at the mid-stage of the Integration Realm.
The fact that Qian Fei could have the Hidden Dragon Guard as his protector... made the Supreme Elder of the Crimson Dragon Clan increasingly suspicious that Qian Fei's identity was truly as "ordinary" as he claimed.
"Seventh Uncle, I can't see through that guy surnamed Fu. Go and take a look... If he really is a potential fusion seed secretly cultivated by the nine major tribes, torture him for a few days and then release him. If he isn't... bring him here, and I'll torture him myself until he wishes he were dead..."
Qian Fei gritted his teeth, rubbed his aching lower abdomen, and coldly gave the order.
After speaking, the Hidden Dragon Guard known as "Seventh Uncle" nodded and instantly transformed into a streak of light, speeding towards the Dark Serpent Clan's territory.
……
The Dark Serpent Clan's long-range teleportation array has a very limited teleportation distance, making it difficult to traverse an entire continent. The maximum distance it can teleport to is only the central part of the Wind and Fire Continent.
However, this is good news for Wei Tu.
Although the Snow Infant Clan's territory is adjacent to the Human Race's "Bloodstone Immortal Realm," it is also located on the central edge of the Wind and Fire Continent.
He estimated that after leaving through this ultra-long-distance teleportation array, with his speed, it would take him at most one or two years to reach the Snow Infant Clan.
He could easily afford to waste a year or two.
Half a day later.
In the central part of the Wind and Fire Continent, with a slight tremor in the void, a young cultivator dressed in a blue robe suddenly appeared in mid-air. After a slight stumble, he regained his balance and curiously looked around at everything.
"Hmm... This is the territory of the Molten Scorpion Clan. I passed through here hundreds of years ago when I was traveling to the Holy Emperor Domain with the Golden Silkworm Snow Maiden..." Upon seeing the familiar scenery, Wei Tu finally showed a bit of relief.
He flicked his sleeves, changed his appearance and aura, and then proceeded along the route he remembered.
Three months later, Wei Tu seemed to remember something again. He frowned, took off the "Qiankun Bag" from his waist, and took out a young female cultivator who was imprisoned by a sealing talisman.
This beautiful young female cultivator was none other than Ding Yuyan, the Demon Cloud Sect cultivator he couldn't bear to kill inside the Yin Crow Tower.
As the sealing talisman was removed, Ding Yuyan, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened her beautiful eyes. Although she looked haggard after being sealed for so long, her gaze towards Wei Tu was full of excitement.
Despite being imprisoned by Wei Tu for decades, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, she still had a clear sense of the passage of time and knew that she had been inside the "Qiankun Bag" for sixty or seventy years.
This timeframe undoubtedly exceeds the "Jiazi" period stipulated by the Demon Cloud Sect.
Right now, the area she sensed with her divine sense confirmed her guess—under Wei Tu's guidance, she had indeed successfully escaped from that doomed place.
“Senior Evil Lin, I wonder where this place is…” Ding Yuyan asked cautiously.
"This is the spirit world!"
"When I reached the seventh level of the Dark Raven Tower, I accidentally triggered a restriction and ended up here..."
Wei Tu raised his eyelids slightly and said calmly.
"What, the Spirit Realm?" Upon hearing this, Ding Yuyan was immediately taken aback. The Spirit Realm was a cultivation treasure land that cultivators from minor spirit realms dreamed of.
The reason she was tricked into joining the Demon Cloud Cult and becoming a non-Cult cultivator was closely related to the Demon Cloud Cult's claim that it could lead its own cultivators to the Spirit Realm.
Now, having survived the brutal battles within the Dark Raven Tower, and having not only miraculously survived but also arrived at the Spirit Realm, a treasure trove for cultivation, how could she not be overjoyed?
"Alright, I'll spare your life this time. From now on, you'll have to walk your own path." But Wei Tu didn't care about Ding Yuyan's feelings. After saying these words, he gave the woman a cold glance, then soared into the air and disappeared into the towering mountains.
See this scene.
Just moments ago, Ding Yuyan was overjoyed. After a moment of astonishment, she didn't hesitate to condense her escape light and chase after Wei Tu.
This is not out of gratitude.
Rather, she knew how comfortable it would be to have Wei Tu, a "strongman," as her protector in a strange place.
Even though Wei Tu is a bit old, using her beauty to please men is not a disgrace among female cultivators of lower realms.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard Ding Yuyan chased, Wei Tu didn't even bother to look back. In less than two breaths, Wei Tu's escape light had completely disappeared into the horizon. (End of Chapter)
