The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 486 Lu Tong, the Good Man
In the early morning, a gentle breeze was blowing, and the sky was cloudless.

In the clear, bright sunlight, a flock of birds danced and circled, chasing their joy.

Suddenly, a bird in flight had its head explode without warning, startling the other birds into scattering in all directions.

From the headless bird's corpse, a faint, transparent afterimage flew out, emitting a faint golden glow in the sunlight.

The afterimage seemed to be saying something, flying aimlessly, but the next second, an invisible force gathered from all around, eventually transforming into a palm that caught the afterimage.

Then, the owner of the palm appeared out of thin air; it was Wang Wu.

He is still collecting Lu Tong's remnant soul.

This matter is not too difficult, but it is not easy either, especially since he is a very responsible, trustworthy, and perfectionist person. So of course he wouldn't just grab a remnant soul and go back to report.

Over the past three months, he has captured 379 remnant souls of Lu Tong.

These fragments of remnant souls were extremely small, so small that even a Taiyi True Immortal, the Black Emperor of the Black Domain, and Gray Elder could not sense them; they were truly annihilated.

However, with the help of the Vermilion Bird Array Soul and the extremely high authority he possessed in the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower, it was still quite easy for Wang Wu to do it; it just required more time.

After collecting the remnant soul, Wang Wu disappeared into thin air again in the next second, and then appeared inside the Vermilion Bird Heaven and Earth Needle. There, a transparent, broken body was sitting cross-legged.

Wang Wu took out the fragment of the remnant soul and carefully pieced it together. After finishing, he nodded happily, feeling quite accomplished.

Lu Tong's remnant soul has now been pieced together to a considerable extent. It is estimated that once another hundred or so fragments are collected, it will be complete.

A moment later, Wang Wu left the Vermilion Bird Heaven and Earth Needle and embarked once again on his journey to collect Lu Tong's remnant soul. He couldn't slack off, because as the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower continued to operate, those remnant soul fragments would be constantly crushed, shattered, and made smaller until they were completely destroyed.

He is a good person and must do his best to find Lu Tong's remaining soul.

that's it,
Day and night, through cold and heat, they searched for three whole years in the Great Wilderness Prison Tower.

He was certain that there were no more fragments of Lu Tong's remnant soul; even the smaller remnant souls had been completely annihilated.

At this point, Wang Wu sighed. It seemed that this was all he could do.

He collected a total of 536 fragments of remnant souls, barely managing to piece together Lu Tong's soul body completely.

But this is only the first step, because a remnant soul and a complete divine soul are not the same.

Even if it is pieced back together, it cannot wake up. It's like putting broken porcelain back together; how can that be the same?

Therefore, the second step is to nurture the remaining soul.

Ordinary warming methods won't work; you need to buy those incredibly expensive elixirs and pills from the secret vault.

But Wang Wu isn't Lu Tong's father, so naturally he wouldn't be willing to spend such a high price. Asking Feng Muhan and the others for reimbursement wouldn't work either. Right now, Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhan are most likely being secretly watched by someone with ulterior motives, so it's better to be safe than sorry.

Then we'll just have to spend more time fixing it little by little.

In any case, Wang Wu currently has plenty of time. In order to find his own path, he has given himself a six-thousand-year vacation.

Even Shuangjun suggested that he take ten thousand years to settle the matter and confirm it.

Wang Wu employed two specific methods for restoration. One method involved irradiating the external environment with the yin and yang energies to gradually improve it. Approximately 0.01% of the environment could be restored every hundred years of irradiation.

Another approach is to use subtle spiritual insight to attempt repair.

Consider it an opportunity to accumulate experience in repairing the soul.

Yes, he still has no experience in this area. He currently has a very high level of expertise in restorative elixirs, so theoretically, a veterinarian is also a doctor.

In any case, the cost of trial and error is still quite high.

Moreover, he also had four clowns as advisors, who were extremely interested in reshaping Lu Tong's soul.

"The soul of a seventh-level Taiyi True Immortal is priceless. Are you sure you don't want to give us a few pieces, or even just one? We need to upgrade too."

The four clowns have said this nonsense hundreds of times; they've been envious for a long time.

But Wang Wu had no such idea. He could destroy Lu Tong's other half of his soul and his reserve body without hesitation, but he would never even consider doing something that might leave hidden dangers.

Because once Lu Tong's soul awakens, apart from forgetting about Xiong Wangjie, everything else will most likely return to normal.

In other words, he was still a very formidable seventh-level Taiyi True Immortal, and Wang Wu did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

“Actually, Lu Tong’s remnant souls are already quite strong. Perhaps all he lacks is a soul-nourishing elixir… Alright, you decide.”

The four clowns continued their incessant chatter, but Wang Wu ignored them. He would come to the Lingyun Detection Center every ten days, not rushing to repair it, but first observing, recording, and analyzing it. He would make a plan only after obtaining enough data.

As a result, after he first used his spiritual energy to analyze Lu Tong's soul, he discovered something that greatly excited him.

"Righteous Qi? Lu Tong's Dao can actually manifest in his remnant soul!"

"However, based on my observation, this is not something he engraved, but rather a kind of deep and clear imprint, similar to a belief. This shows that Lu Tong truly regards righteousness as his own path. His path cannot deceive himself. In fact, apart from the matter of Xiong Wangjie, he has not hidden anything else from Shuangjun."

Wang Wu nodded to himself. From this perspective, Lu Tong still had merit. It wasn't in vain that he had gone to so much trouble to save and reform him. Without the memory of killing Xiong Wangjie, without this weakness, he would strive to contribute to the Frost Domain in the future, and he would become a truly good person, Lu Tong. "Then there's no problem. Repairing his remnant soul is simpler than I imagined."

Wang Wu breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as one's eyes must have focus, the Dao of an immortal can also serve as the strongest source of faith and support.

Next, Wang Wu carefully readjusted the positions of Lu Tong's remnant soul fragments, no longer following the original order, but instead using the imprint of righteous energy as a guide to piece together the fragments one by one.

Moreover, we no longer pursue partial integrity; even if a large part is left empty, it doesn't matter. The key is that the imprint of the Righteous Qi can be completely pieced together.

Then, the moment to witness a miracle will arrive.

After Wang Wu connected fifty percent of the righteous energy imprint, Lu Tong's remnant soul actually developed some faint consciousness.

This is amazing.

It's no less than reading a favorite book to a person in a vegetative state in the mortal world, and then that person finally reacts.

"The power of belief is terrifying?"

"The power of belief is terrifying, especially the belief that Lu Tong regards as his path of cultivation. It is as indestructible as gold and iron, as solid as mountains, and as unyielding as the sun and moon!"

"Of course, this is also an inspiration for us. We feel that we have also found our own path to advancement, and we also want to imprint our own path of belief on it."

Wang Wu and the four clowns were all shocked; it was truly an eye-opening experience.

He even noticed that Lu Tong's remnant soul had begun to undergo some slight self-repair.

What else is there to say?

Wang Wu immediately continued to connect with Lu Tong's righteous energy. As more and more imprints were connected, Lu Tong's reaction became stronger and stronger. After the connection of all the belief imprints on the remnant soul was completed, a rich and pure golden light burst forth from these belief imprints, giving a sense of being bathed in Buddha's light.

Truly, it's dazzling! This isn't just the power of a soul or thought, but the Dao transformed from pure belief!
This is a special kind of energy that Wang Wu has never seen, encountered, or even been able to analyze or look at before.

How to put it? It's like the brilliance of humanity, the purest, most simple, and most touching kind of brilliance.

Bathed in this radiance, Wang Wu felt that even if he were just an ordinary person, he would dare to venture into the mass grave and fight the old corpse in the mountain village!

What are cultivators? What are immortal emperors?

I'd rather die than not believe this!
"Fuck!"

Wang Wu had to work very hard to erase this glorious influence from his mind and his consciousness, because he was horrified to find that in just a short while, the Dao imprint of righteous energy had been left on his soul!
This is terrifying! So this is the Tao!
This humble Taoist priest seems to have gained enlightenment once again.

The thought flashed through Wang Wu's mind, and he emerged from the Vermilion Bird Heaven and Earth Needle. He then pocketed the miniature Heaven and Earth Needle and left the Great Wilderness Prison Tower.

Because he had a strong premonition that the good man Lu Tong was about to make a triumphant return.

Those fragments of remnant souls are incomplete?
It's no big deal at all!

The destruction of the physical body is no big deal!

In fact, because Wang Wu collected so many fragments of remnant souls, Lu Tong's recovery speed was unprecedented.

The next second, Wang Wu appeared in Qing Shuang City and was then teleported to the council hall of the Hidden Origin Bell.

Then he dropped the Vermilion Bird Heaven and Earth Needle and teleported away.

There's nothing we can do; this is the pollution of the Tao.

It will really corrupt him. Unless he intends to follow the path of righteousness and hatred of evil, he should stay far away from it.

What is a succubus? This is what a succubus is, no, a succubus immortal.

As soon as he came out, he was stopped on the spot by Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhan.

At the same time, Qu Shenglian rushed into the council hall, but was defeated and forced to retreat the next second.

He was enveloped in a faint golden light, but his face was filled with undisguised joy.

"Don't go in. Senior Brother's righteous path seems to have become purer and more refined. It has already formed a Dao Domain. No matter who it is, as long as they dare to go in at this time, they will be corrupted by his Dao. My lord, you have worked hard."

Qu Shenglian left these words in a hurry, as she needed to quickly wash away the pollution that Lu Tong had brought to her.

"Dao domain?"

Zhuang Bufei and Feng Muhan looked at each other, their faces filled with jealousy and sourness, which they made no attempt to hide.

"Senior Brother has truly turned misfortune into blessing this time. Doesn't that mean his Dao Domain will be on par with Master's?"

Feng Muhan's expression was complicated.

Zhuang Bufei knelt down before Wang Wu with a thud, saying, "My lord, since we have plenty of time, please do it to me in the same way. I am willing to pay any price, just to make my path more steadfast and to form a Dao Domain."
