I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 165: Seeking the treasure, the demon baby of all spirits (please subscribe)
Speechless all the way.

After several days of trekking, Wei Tu and the others arrived at Tianshuang Ridge where the "Xuanhou Qi Family" was located.

Tianshuang Ridge covers an area of ​​hundreds of miles, with lush vegetation and the sound of apes crowing from time to time in the mountains.

"Years ago, there were no apes or monkeys living in Tianshuang Ridge. However, after our ancestors subdued the Xuanshuang Monkeys, there... gradually became a lot more ape species..." Qi Feng followed Wei Tu as she watched. After arriving at the family's hometown, a look of nostalgia appeared on his face.

Two years ago, when her second uncle "Qi Changdao" sold her to the Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce to pay off her debts, she was completely despondent and thought that she would never be able to turn around again in this life.

There is no chance of returning to my homeland.

however--

Today, she was taken as a concubine by Wei Tu. With the power of Wei Tu, the foundation-building master, she could finally take revenge.

While Qi Feng was sighing with emotion, Wei Tu had secretly set up several traps on the passing passages of Tianshuang Ridge.

——After the battle with Si Qing, he summed up the successful experience.Before venturing into danger, a trap must be laid.

This trap can not only be used against the enemy, but also a way out for him.

If you encounter an invincible person, this trap can be used to block the enemy and give him time to escape.

"Let's go. As long as I'm here, they won't dare to make things difficult for you." Wei Tu put the talisman box in his hand back into the storage bag, glanced at Qi Feng who was hesitating, and said slowly.

"Thank you, Senior Wei." Qi Feng felt relieved when he heard this, and at the same time, there was a trace of blush on his face.

Next.

After Wei Tu confirmed with Qi Feng the topography of the Xuanhou Qi clan's land and the formation they had set up to protect the clan, he then set off for the main gate of his clan's land.

Most foundation-building families have formations to protect the family.These clan-protecting formations are powerful or weak. The top clan-protecting formations can even kill several foundation-building masters.

The clan-protecting formation of the Xuanhou Qi family is called the "Three Mountains Golden Sword Formation". It integrates three formations: attack, illusion, and defense. It is a second-level mid-level formation.

If Qi Feng, the daughter of the former clan leader, was not here and knew the shortcomings of this formation, Wei Tu would never dare to break into this formation even if he teamed up with Kou Hongying.

——The clan-protecting formation is impregnable. Unless there is a crushing force, it will be difficult to break through from the outside.

Therefore, [-]% of the foundation-building families, even if the ancestor of the foundation-building family dies, will not be destroyed in a short while.

Most of their downfalls were caused by the separation of people's hearts and the unfilial piety of their children, who gradually handed over their great foundation to the hands of others.

This time, Qi Feng offered the treasure to Wei Tu. Although there was a reason, it was said to be ugly, but it also fell into this category.

of course.

There is nothing wrong with avenging yourself.

lean less.

The three of them arrived at the main entrance of the Qi family.

When he was a few hundred steps away from the clan's land, Wei Tu stopped. He thought for a moment, took out a talisman from his sleeve, and punched it into the Qi family's land, which was shrouded in an earth-yellow light shield in front of him.

With his eyesight, he could tell at a glance that this khaki light curtain was the "Three Mountains Golden Sword Formation" mentioned by Qi Feng.

After the letter is sent.

It's about tea time.

A middle-aged man in gray robes with a scar on his face, surrounded by a group of monks, came to the main entrance of the Qi family land.

"Senior Wei came to my Qi's house. I don't know why?" The middle-aged man in gray robe looked at Wei Tu for a few times. When he saw Qi Feng dressed as a woman behind Wei Tu, he was shocked at first, and then his face showed A strong look of vigilance.

"This man with the scar is my second uncle Qi Changdao." Qi Feng reminded Wei Tu in a low voice.

Wei Tu nodded, looked at Qi Changdao, bowed his hands and said: "Clan Chief Qi, Mr. Wei came to Guibao Land to buy the "Cold Crystal Flower" from the nobles. I hope that Clan Chief Qi will be kind enough to sell this spiritual herb. To Wei."

"Cold crystal flower?" After Qi Changdao heard these three words, he glanced at Qi Feng secretly. How could he not know clearly at this moment that it must be Qi Feng who informed Wei Tu that the Qi family had this treasure? .

He secretly said, "It's hard to guard against domestic thieves," then he thought for a few breaths and said, "Senior Wei plans to buy the Cold Crystal Flower. My Qi family is willing to do so, but... at what price does Senior Wei plan to buy this thing?"

In Qi Changdao's view, Wei Tu was undoubtedly a bad visitor at this moment. If he could send him away with just a "cold crystal flower", it would be a good thing for him.

——Although Cold Crystal Flower is a secret medicine for refining the body and is valuable, its efficacy has long been greatly reduced after it has been stored for hundreds of years.

Therefore, the true value of Han Jinghua is not very precious to the Xuanhou Qi family.

However, in front of the clan members, Qi Changdao cannot be too humble and ignore the majesty of the clan leader, thereby being underestimated.

"What price does Patriarch Qi think is appropriate?" Wei Tu smiled faintly and put the question back to Qi Changdao, asking Qi Changdao to set the price.

There is no foundation-building monk to control the clan. At this time, the Xuanhou Qi family, although there is a "tortoise shell" of the clan protection formation, there is already a panic inside.

The Xuanhou Qi family, at this time, did not dare to offend the two foundation-building masters.

Therefore, if Qi Changdao sets the price of "Han Jinghua" too high, he will be offended. If he sets the price of "Han Jinghua" too cheap, he will be dissatisfied by his tribe and his prestige will be greatly reduced.

This is a dilemma.

It's also a conspiracy.

However, in this predicament, Kou Hongying on the side added another psychological burden to Qi Changdao.

Kou Hongying showed her identity token and said with a displeased look on her face: "Clan Chief Qi, when we are talking about business, why don't we invite Master Wei and me to come in and take a seat?"

As soon as the sect's token was revealed, the Qi family cultivators present looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.

The three major immortal sects are the overlords of the Zheng Kingdom's immortal world. They have certain rights to rule over the family monks and casual cultivators within their territory.

It's okay for a casual cultivator. He is alone. He can avoid the three major immortal sects. At worst, he can hide in the deep mountains and old forests and cannot escape.

But not the family monks.

The monks in the family, both old and young, have so many worries that it is difficult for them to act arbitrarily regardless of the consequences.

Kou Hongying is just a foundation-building master of Jingshui Pavilion, and cannot represent Jingshui Pavilion. However, at this time, when facing Kou Hongying, the Xuanhou Qi family can only be trembling and do not dare to be presumptuous.

——The absence of foundation-building monks means that the Xuanhou Qi family cannot meet Kou Hongying's "upper class" and can only be slaughtered by him.

Without access to the "high-level officials" of Jingshui Pavilion, theoretically, Kou Hongying's power was almost infinite in front of small families like the Xuanhou Qi family.

This principle is the same as that of ordinary subordinate officials oppressing the people.

Subordinate officials are not officials, but the people fear subordinate officials more than officials.

This is also the reason why Kou Hongying volunteered to go to Xuanhou Qi's house with Wei Tu.

In terms of combat power, Kou Hongying is not as good as Wei Tu, but in terms of status in the world of immortal cultivation, Wei Tu, a foundation-building casual cultivator, is far lower than Kou Hongying, an immortal sect foundation-building cultivator.

Ordinary forces, especially those without foundation-building monks, are as afraid of the Immortal Sect's foundation-building monks as they are of the tiger.

Therefore, even though Qi Changdao and other Qi family monks knew that Wei Tu and Kou Hongying might have bad intentions when they came to the Xuanhou Qi family, at this moment, they had to think about whether to activate the clan protection formation. Please invite Wei Tu and Kou Hongying in.

Saying no is easy today.

But afterwards, if the two Ji-Building Masters wanted to take revenge on their Xuanhou Qi family, it would be unbearable with the current strength of the Xuanhou Qi family.

"Clan Chief Qi, have you thought about the price of that cold crystal flower...?" Wei Tu pressed forward step by step without giving Qi Changdao time to think.

After waiting for a few breaths and seeing that Qi Changdao still hadn't spoken, Wei Tu said casually: "Chief Qi, there is no need to be nervous. Now Qi Feng is Wei's concubine. You and I are already one family. It's just a small profit. Wei will not Concerned."

After saying this.

The frowning Qi Changdao suddenly raised his head. He first glanced at Wei Tu with a startled expression, then took a few steps back and looked warily at the Qi family monks around him.

No matter how stupid he was at this moment, he understood the intention of Wei Tu and Kou Hongying's double act just now - it was nothing more than to provoke internal strife in the Qi family and ask other members of the Qi family to help them open the Xuanhou Qi family's clan-protecting formation.

Purchasing the "Cold Crystal Flower" was just a pretense. Once he hesitated, he fell into Wei Tu's trap.

from this point.

Wei Tu successfully destroyed his prestige among the Qi family members.

Later, Kou Hongying revealed his identity as "Xianmen Foundation Establishment" and transferred the pressure he faced to the Qi family cultivators.

last step.

Wei Tu revealed his identity, which was the last move to "encircle and kill" him.

——With Wei Tu as a relative to choose from, how can he still get the support of his tribe despite being in an unfair position?
In addition, Kou Hongying's status as a fairy is also a "guarantee" for the Qi family members to seek refuge.

Although the Immortal Sect is overbearing, it still belongs to the righteous sect and has a certain bottom line.

"Please also ask the clan leader to open the formation and invite the Talisman Guard Master and Fairy Kou to come in."

At this time, an old man with a horse face who was standing next to Qi Changdao just now looked at Qi Changdao with stern eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Third Elder!" Qi Changdao had a look of disbelief on his face when he saw the horse-faced old man making trouble.

In the Qi family, he had always regarded the horse-faced old man as his confidant.

"Clan leader, Qi Feng has brought the two foundation-building masters Wei Tu and Kou Hongying over at this time. We refused to open the formation. We can hide for a while, but we cannot hide for the rest of our lives." Seeing this, the horse-faced old man sighed and advised.Hearing this, Qi Changdao made a slight move, but he was still afraid of Qi Feng's revenge on him, so he did not dare to open the clan-protecting formation.

Seeing this, the horse-faced old man continued to persuade: "The former patriarch's rule has a deep foundation. The patriarch's current rule has only been for two years, and the foundation is not stable."

"In the past, the clansmen thought that the clan leader was a ninth-level Qi practitioner and the clan leader's younger brother, so they allowed the clan leader to assume the position of clan leader, but now the situation is very different... Qi Feng became Wei Tu's concubine and became attached to Wei Tu. Ji Zhenren..."

"Over time, it will be difficult to secure the position of clan leader."

At this point, the horse-faced old man paused again, "As for using Qi Feng to pay off the debt, although the clan leader has selfish motives in this matter, without this opportunity, how could she climb the high branch of Wei Tu, the foundation-building master, and become Concubine?"

"She should be grateful to the patriarch!"

After hearing these words, Qi Changdao's doubts were temporarily dispelled. He glanced at the tribesmen in front of him who were hostile to him, sighed secretly, and finally made up his mind.

He took out a light cyan formation disk from his arms and poured in three mana in a row.

A cyan light beam as thick as an arm shot out from the formation, hitting the yellow light mask covering the Qi family's ground.

The yellow light shield shook several times, and a wide road leading to the clan's land was separated from it.

"Senior Wei and Fairy Kou are also invited to come in. I, the Xuanhou Qi family, welcome these two seniors to join the clan to trade..." Qi Changdao smiled and showed humility.

After finishing speaking, Qi Changdao looked at Qi Feng, who was following Wei Tu, with a flattering look on his face, and stepped forward and said, "Xiao Feng, I'm so sorry. Now that I'm with Senior Wei, I'll have a good life in the future." .”

however--

His voice did not fall.

A stream of blood appeared directly in front of his eyes. Immediately afterwards, Qi Changdao felt his head spinning several times in the air. When he landed, he saw half of his headless body.

"How could it be?" Qi Changdao was stunned. He could not imagine that after opening the formation, he would face such an ending.

But before he could figure it out.

Then his eyesight went black and there was no life left.

"Three Mountains Golden Sword Array?" Wei Tu waved his sleeves and used his magic power to capture the light cyan array plate in Qi Changdao's hand. He glanced at it briefly and put it into his storage bag.

The "Three Mountains Golden Sword Formation" integrates offense and defense, which does not mean that after he enters the formation, he will be safe and sound.

On the contrary, after entering the formation, he was several times more dangerous than outside the formation.

Therefore, for the sake of his own safety, Wei Tu would not let Qi Changdao live, and would still control the Xuanhou Qi family's clan-protecting formation.

As for reputation...

There was no need to talk about credibility when dealing with a monk like Qi Changdao, and he had not promised any conditions to Qi Changdao before Qi Changdao opened the formation.

Intimidating Qi Changdao to open the formation was the tactic he had decided before.

"Qi Changdao, cheating on others, forging Jiuyun Chamber of Commerce's debts, and selling female cultivators from the Qi family for the sake of his own cultivation resources...Wei killed her here today, and I hope all fellow Taoists will forgive me."

After beheading Qi Changdao, Wei Tu showed his kindness to the Qi family cultivators.

——He didn’t know whether the Qi family’s specific debt problem was true or false.But he knew that no matter how difficult it was for a family, they would not sell their daughters to pay off their debts.Not to mention selling the patriarch's daughter.

Based on this alone, he believed that Qi Changdao deserved to die.

Killing the culprit is not uncommon in family power struggles.

And Wei Tu's actions can be regarded as bringing order to Qi Feng, the daughter of the clan leader.

Therefore, after the Qi family cultivators heard what Wei Tu said, their anxious hearts settled in their stomachs.

After all, with Wei Tu's cultivation, it is not difficult to kill the entire Xuanhou Qi family. There is no need to pretend to be benevolent and righteous at this moment.

……

After half a day.

Wei Tu and Qi Feng came to the forbidden area in the Qi family's land.

This forbidden area is a stone forest several miles in size, with uneven gray stone pillars standing there. Many low-level spiritual grasses grow between the stone pillars.

In the center of the stone forest, there is an open space where a magnificent palace is built.

"Although the main hall is the family's treasure house, which stores the clan's magical weapons, elixirs and other items, in fact... the main hall is just a cover set up by the ancestors."

"The foundation of the clan is not in this hall, but in the stone forest."

Qi Feng said as he walked to the seventh stone pillar on the left side of the stone forest.

I saw Qi Feng pouring a few magic powers into a corner of the stone pillar, and the stone pillar immediately glowed with a pale white forbidden light.

Then, Qi Fengtan opened her mouth slightly, took out a black bead the size of a dragon's eye from her body, and drove it into the stone pillar.

Click!Click!
The bottom of the stone pillar split, revealing a slender opening, which was only half a foot wide and could only allow one person to enter.

Wei Tu winked at Kou Hongying, asking him to look at Qi Feng, and then he quickly slipped into the crack in the stone.

"Fellow Daoist Qi, please wait here for a while until Uncle Wei finishes his investigation, then you can enter again." Kou Hongying understood and used magic power to temporarily immobilize Qi Feng.

……

After entering the stone crevice.

The first thing you see is a long underground passage that stretches as far as the eye can see.

"Go!" Wei Tu patted the storage bag and released several fist-sized spider puppets to help him explore the path.

These spider puppets were gadgets he bought by the way the last time he bought the "Swordsman Puppet" from Master Yu.

Spider puppets are just low-level puppets and cannot be used for combat. They are only suitable for exploring paths.

"There is no danger." Wei Tu breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that all the spider puppets were alive and there were no traps along the way.

He followed the spider puppet to the end of the underground passage.

At the end, he saw a built white jade square platform several feet long and wide.

On this white jade square platform, there is a light yellow jade slip and a gray futon.

"What is the foundation of the clan that Qi Feng mentioned?" Wei Tu frowned. He raised his hand, took the light yellow jade slip into his palm, and patiently explored it.

A quarter of an hour later.

Wei Tu put down the jade slips and began to use his spiritual consciousness and geomagnetic light to explore every place on the white jade stone platform, looking for hidden mechanisms.

There is not much recorded in this jade slip. It only talks about the refining method of "Fairy Spirit Dew", a heavenly material and earthly treasure.

Wei Tu secretly guessed: This fairy spirit dew is the foundation of the Xuanhou Qi family.

Time passed moment by moment.

Wei Tu found a mechanism under the futon and pressed it lightly.

The white jade stone platform suddenly sank downwards, and in the center, a fist-sized cyan baby wooden sculpture was revealed. The baby wooden sculpture sat cross-legged, with its eyes closed, and its hands holding strange marks.

In the mouth of the baby's wooden carving, there is a finger-long elixir bottle.

"Is that "Fairy Spirit Dew" in the elixir bottle?" Wei Tu was surprised.

This was the first time he saw such a strange spiritual creature in the world of immortality.

After half a sound.

Wei Tu finally determined that the foundation of the clan mentioned by the "Xuanhou Qi Family" was the "fairy spirit dew" oozing out from the mouth of this "baby wood carving".

However, what makes Wei Tu puzzled is that this "baby wood carving" is neither gold nor wood. It does not look like a natural treasure, but rather looks like some kind of man-made flesh and blood magic weapon.

Like "an air bag".

After moving the "Baby Woodcarving" away, Wei Tu found the same jade slip that recorded the "Fairy Spirit Dew" formula under the "Baby Woodcarving".

The content recorded inside is about the exploration of this "baby wood carving" by the ancestors of the Qi family.

From this, Wei Tu learned the name of this "baby wood carving", which was called "Wanling Demon Baby" and had a close relationship with Wanling Sect.

The ancestors of the Qi family even boldly guessed that this "Wanling Demon Infant" contained the secret of the Wanling Sect's golden elixir to break through the Nascent Soul.

"I don't know how the Qi family got this Ten Thousand Spirit Monster Infant." Wei Tu shook his head after seeing the contents of the jade slip.

The Qi family has been established for thousands of years and is still a foundation-building family. In the history of the family, no True Lord of the Golden Core has ever been born.

And this "All Souls Demon Infant" is obviously not something that a foundation-building monk can possess.

"The Immortal Spirit Dew can improve the cultivation of foundation-building monks. If the Qi family has this treasure, why didn't the True Monarch of the Golden Pill be born?" Wei Tu suddenly thought of this and felt mixed joy and sorrow.
