I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 323: Casting Dao Pill, heading to Xiao Country (5k big chapter, please subscribe)

"The True Demonic Skill", a third-level demonic body-refining technique, was obtained by Wei Tu through Gong Suzhen's hand and a trade with the Jingshui Pavilion monks when he was in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

As of today, the "Shen Demon True Skill" is becoming more and more difficult to improve the body-refining realm.

It has almost reached the upper limit of the skill.

However, higher-level body training techniques are not easy to find. The emergence of "The Immortal Source Sutra of Casting the Way" can be regarded as solving Wei Tu's urgent need.

"First transfer to the cultivation method, and then go to Xiao Country after completing the transfer to the "Chu Dao Immortal Source Sutra"."

Wei Tu decided to postpone his trip.

Kung Fu is the foundation of a monk. The earlier it is transformed, the more beneficial it will be for future cultivation.

In addition, although cultivating both good and evil spirits is relatively common among casual cultivators, there are very few monks who have such profound attainments in demonic body refining as he does.

In the four inland countries, the farther south you go, the more deeply the concept of good and evil becomes popular.

Xiao Guo is the headquarters of the Righteous Way.

Many righteous sects in other countries originated from the Xiao Kingdom in history.

Wei Tu is heading to Xiao Country, and there is a high chance that his demonic cultivation will cause him trouble.

Therefore, since Wei Tu has the body-training technique called "The Immortal Origin Sutra of Casting the Way" in his hand, it is best to practice it first before going to Xiao Country.

At least there's no harm in changing courses.

"To practice this technique, you need to first take the "Tao-casting Pill" that builds the foundation... Could the elixir in this blue alchemy cauldron be the Tao-casting Pill?"

Wei Tu's eyes brightened slightly. He patted his storage bag and took out the blue alchemy cauldron that came from the same cave as "The Immortal Origin Sutra of Casting the Way".

High-level skills are not as easy to practice as low-level skills, and they have certain requirements for qualifications, bloodline, and foundation.

To practice the "Zhudao Immortal Source Sutra", you only need the "Zhudao Pill" to build the foundation of practice. Among high-level exercises, it is relatively simple.

For example, in the advanced skills of Gujian Mountain, before practicing, you even need to hammer the sword bones first, and use the sword bones as the basis to practice the skills.

Another example Wei Tu heard from Kou Hongying was that Jingshui Pavilion's Zong Zhenzong technique "Shuiyue Daoshu" has such harsh training conditions that it requires the search for special water-moving spirits and cold-blooded spirits.

In comparison, high-level techniques such as "The Immortal Origin Sutra of Casting the Way", which require the use of special elixirs to lay the foundation, are already much more accessible to the people.

"Open!" Wei Tu made a secret and hit several spells on the blue alchemy cauldron one by one to unlock the seals and restrictions on the alchemy cauldron one by one.

Ten breaths later, the alchemy cauldron opened, and a white elixir that looked like Qi but not Qi, or essence but not essence, with restrained brilliance, floated out.

Inside the pill, there is a bright and dazzling pure energy, swimming back and forth, which is mysterious.

"Like a fourth-level elixir?"

Wei Tu was slightly surprised.

When elixirs and magic weapons are at the fourth level, it is a watershed.The elixirs of the fourth level and above, more or less, have some spirituality.

Like the white pill in front of you, the spiritual pill is at least level four.

Wei Tu thought to himself that with his knowledge of elixirs, he would not be able to refine this white elixir at the third level.

However, just as Wei Tu carefully looked at the white pill, the white pill suddenly turned into a brocade white carp dragon and flew away.

"A person with spirituality and the ability to escape is undoubtedly a fourth-level elixir."

When Wei Tu saw this, he was not surprised but happy.

With the restrictions and formations set up in his cave, even if a monk of the same level comes, it will be difficult for him to escape in a short time, let alone a pill.

next moment.

The white pill that turned into a brocade carp dragon and escaped was trapped by the restrictions in the cave. Wei Tu stretched out his hand and took it into the palm of his hand.

"In addition to Qi refining, the Stone Demon Sect is also a major body cultivation sect on par with the Huangshan Sect in terms of body refining. This "The Immortal Origin Sutra of Casting the Way" may be the core technique of the Stone Demon Sect's body refining."

When Wei Tu looked at the white pills, he suddenly thought of this.

Of course, this does not mean that "The Immortal Origin Sutra" is the magic method.

It is not that simple to distinguish between righteous cultivation methods and demonic cultivation methods.The techniques practiced by some demon cultivators appear to be more righteous than the righteous path.

In addition, the "Zhu Dao Immortal Source Sutra" is recorded in Chiming script and can be regarded as an ancient book of Immortal Dao.At that time, there was no distinction between good and evil in the Da Cang Immortal World.

If Wei Tu's guess is true, then the skills and elixirs placed in the Nascent Soul Cave in the Stone Demon Tower are the core inheritance of the sect intentionally left by the ancestor of the Nascent Soul of the Stone Demon Sect.

The white pills in the blue pill cauldron are naturally the "Tao Casting Pills" required for the technique.

……

Although the white pills were suspected of being Zhudao Pills, Wei Tu did not take them rashly.

He used the method of measuring pills commonly used by alchemists to check them one by one. Only after seeing that they were harmless did he dare to swallow them boldly.

After the elixir enters the stomach.

A slightly itchy warmth suddenly arose in Wei Tu's Dantian.

This warmth came from his dantian and gradually spread to his limbs and bones, making him feel as if he was bathed in the sun.

At the same time, deep in his ribs, Wei Tu saw drops of milky white spiritual fluid gradually condensing inside his bone marrow.

"It really is a Taoist Pill!"

Seeing this scene, Wei Tu was immediately overjoyed.

These milky white spiritual fluids are the "immortal source" in the "Chu Dao Immortal Source Sutra".

According to the technique, the "immortal source" condensed by the monks who practice this technique can gradually evolve into the true foundation of immortality through step-by-step transformation.

Of course, to reach this step, you must at least be near the realm of immortality.Based on Wei Tu's current state, these "immortal sources" are nothing more than the spiritual liquid condensed from his physical essence and Dao Casting Pill.

There is the Dao Casting Pill to help.

Wei Tu's transfer to the "Forging the Immortal Source Sutra" was very successful. Without much effort, he transformed all the skills of the "Shen Demon True Skill" and "Hundred Vein Blood Forging Technique" that he had previously practiced, and condensed them into a drop visible to the naked eye. Drops of fairy source liquid.

However, because the exercises in "The Immortal Source Sutra of Casting the Way" were at a higher level, his body-refining realm inevitably dropped a bit during his transformation.

Fortunately, Wei Tu had previously obtained a Golden Marrow Pill from Situ You.

After he swallowed this pill, he barely managed to maintain his body refining state at the mid-level third level again.

Four years later.

Skylark Residence, in a closed and secret room.

Wei Tu, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, suddenly opened his eyes. The magic weapon robe on his body was shattered by the inadvertent leakage of power at this moment, leaving fragments of the magic robe on the ground.

The surging energy and blood rose from his body to the sky, like an ancient ferocious beast.

At the same time, as the magic body moves, you can see that its body is inlaid with white jade pieces like fish scales, which are both magnificent and magical.

This fish scale jade piece is the "Shamo True Armor" that Wei Tu had previously cultivated based on the "Shamo True Skill". After he switched to the "Shadow Immortal Source Sutra", this body refining magical power has not been abolished, but has been compatible with it. Entered into the new practice.

This is the terrifying part of the high-level technique of "The Immortal Origin Sutra of Casting the Way".

In the monk's journey of cultivation, every step is a process of "casting the Tao". Low-level skills are not rejected, and all are tolerated... until the immortal base of the Tao is forged.

Including the three blood pills condensed by the second-level body-training technique of "Hundred Meridians Blood Training Technique", the "Forging Dao Immortal Source Sutra" is also well preserved in Wei Tu.

"My body is at least [-]% stronger than before, and it is close to the late stage of third-level body training using ordinary techniques."

Wei Tu gently clenched his fist, and he could feel that his whole body was stronger than ever before.

This kind of power is not only an improvement in physical fitness, but also an all-round improvement in every inch and every part of the cultivation base.

More like some kind of evolution.

He had already vaguely felt that the speed at which he was absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was much faster than before.Will reach the highest level of spiritual roots.

You must know that even with the bonus of "late bloomer" destiny, when he broke through the golden elixir, his spiritual root qualifications were only in the middle of the middle-grade spiritual roots, and the improvement effect was far from as obvious as it is today.

"Whether it is a breakthrough in the late stage of Qi refining, or a breakthrough in body refining, my spiritual root qualifications can reach the top level in advance."

Wei Tu thought.

The effect of high-grade spiritual root qualifications on monks in condensing Yuanying is not as significant as when breaking through foundation building and golden elixir, but it still has certain benefits.

It is better to raise your qualifications to high-grade spiritual roots before breaking through the Nascent Soul than to raise your qualifications to high-grade spiritual roots after Nascent Soul.

……

After half a year of consolidating the realm.

Wei Tu broke through the barrier and came out.

This time, when he came out of seclusion, it was the same as last time. He still had the golden elixir like Situ You, waiting in the shop for Wei Tu to open the furnace to refine the elixir.

This is the result of the fermentation of Weitu's reputation in the past ten years.

It took half a month for Wei Tu to solve the accumulated orders that had been in retreat for several years one by one.

After solving the problem, Wei Tu patted the spirit beast bag, summoned the Sky Cracking Eagle, and then took the dark blue eagle and headed south.

At the first stop, Wei Tu went to the Sanxian League.

After returning to Kang State, except for chasing the eldest princess Yuan Ying and leaving the Ying Ding tribe, he spent the rest of the time hiding in the safe house of the Ying Ding tribe and did not go out easily.

Therefore, the initial decision to send back the "Golden Flame Pearl" talisman was delayed by Wei Tu.

However, for True Lord Jindan, a period of more than ten years is not much different from a few months for a mortal.

In other words, it was not too late for Wei Tu to return the talisman.

When he learned that Wei Tu had specially gone to return the "Golden Flame Bead" as a talisman, Che Gongwei was shocked and relieved at the same time.

Che Gongwei knew very well how precious the talisman was, which was comparable to the first blow of the Nascent Soul.If it were him, if he had obtained this talisman, it would be almost impossible for him to return it to its original owner.

"There are rumors that you returned the bones of Tao Chongzhou, the ancestor of the Tao family in Hanshan, but you have no intention of being greedy at all about the storage bag..."

"Originally, I wouldn't believe this matter. I thought it was a trick you used to improve your reputation. But today, I believe it."

Che Gongwei stroked his beard and smiled.

"As for this golden flame bead..."

Che Gongwei pondered for a moment, then used his magic power again and handed the cases in front of Wei Tu.

"Since you are a member of the master's sect, if you leave this master's thing in my hands, you will keep it, and if you leave it in your hands, you will keep it."

"There is no hope of being diligent as a teacher, and I will live in this small Golden Dragon Valley for the rest of my life. To have this thing close to me is to waste this treasure."

He shook his head and sighed.

Although Wei Tu is a master of art training, in terms of closeness, he is far inferior to Gao Chen, his disciples who have been apprentices since childhood.

But that was before, not now.

After entering the Taixu Realm, Che Gongwei had a deep understanding of Wei Tu's character and strength.

Among his disciples, except Wei Tu, there is no one else who has the strength to inherit the mantle.

To be precise, in Che Gongwei's view, Wei Tu is now regarded as his successor.

even--

Wei Tu is already better than his predecessor, and better than his predecessor.

On the Talisman Path, although Wei Tu's accumulation is not as good as his, in terms of level, he is now on the same level as him.

"Thank you Master."

Wei Tu didn't show any pretense. After hearing Che Gongwei's words, he cupped his hands and said thank you, then calmly took back the Golden Flame Bead.

What Che Gongwei said was true. Now that he was in so many troubles, he really needed the sharp weapon of the Golden Flame Bead as a means of saving his life.

As for Che Gongwei, who was in Jinlong Valley, it would be difficult for him to use the Golden Flame Pearl for a day unless he accidentally got into danger.

"Master, there is no need to say that there is no hope of improvement. The disciple still has a few third-level elixirs in his hand..."

Wei Tu reciprocated the favor, flipped his palm and took out a pill bottle.

The elixir placed in this elixir bottle is not a bystander. It is the "blood-living elixir" that Lou Sanhua commissioned him to refine more than ten years ago.

Li Xue Dan is a popular elixir. Although it does not have the effect of improving mana, it is extremely suitable for young people who have been trapped in a certain realm for many years.

The effect of this elixir is to temporarily increase Qi and blood and loosen one's own bottlenecks.

Therefore, this elixir is almost useless for body-refining cultivators like Wei Tu, but it is an extremely useful elixir for Che Gongwei.

——The energy and blood of a body-refining cultivator is far superior to that of a Qi-refining cultivator of the same level.

"Li Xue Dan?"

Che Gongwei was moved when he heard this. With his financial resources, it was not that he couldn't afford Li Xue Dan.

But this was the first time he was given a gift by his apprentice.

"This apprentice, Wei Tu, is not wrong."

Che Gongwei couldn't help but think of the scene when he complained about Wei Tu secretly breaking through the golden elixir in Honghe Mountain.

……

After saying goodbye to Che Gongwei, Wei Tu walked out of the back hall of Che Mansion and prepared to leave Jinlong Valley.

This time, he did not plan to visit Su Bing'er.

As a senior brother, he could understand Su Bing'er's different feelings towards him.

Wei Tu will not exclude women, but he will not accept them indiscriminately or indiscriminately.

Like Qi Feng, who brought a treasure and asked her to be a concubine, wanting a safe practice environment... Wei Tu would happily agree and would not deliberately refuse.

But for female cultivators such as Qiu Huaisu and Su Bing'er who admired him, Wei Tu had to politely refuse.

In a word.

A Taoist couple is different from a concubine.

They are both Jindan Zhenjun, and they are also brothers and sisters. With the pride of Su Bing'er's spiritual body, can they safely settle down into the same concubine?
Wei Tu is self-aware.

He was a widower, so many female cultivators fell in love with him.But if not, few female cultivators who are not interested in money would be willing to compromise and humiliate themselves for him.

"In the front hall of Che Mansion?"

Wei Tu sensed that in the front courtyard a few hundred steps away from him, two junior sisters, Su Bing'er and Mu Die, were walking together. Su Bing'er was looking around, as if searching for his whereabouts.

Seeing this, Wei Tu stopped, restrained his breath, and used the Qingmu Breath Concentrating Technique to disguise himself as a spiritual tree in the courtyard and hide his body.

"Senior Sister Su, why did you rush here in such a hurry after hearing that Wei Tu had arrived in Jinlong Valley? Could it be that you really like the Smiling Tiger?"

Mu Die pulled Su Bing'er and said dissatisfied.

Even though she knew that Wei Tu saved Su Bing'er twice, the grace of saving her life did not mean that she had to commit herself to him.There is a difference between the two.

"Smiling Tiger?" Upon hearing this, Wei Tu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

He never thought that the impression he left on Mu Die would be so bad.

However, after he thought about it for a moment, he felt relieved.

More than 100 years ago, when he was still in the Foundation Establishment Realm, Mu Die, a young junior sister, wanted to ask him to solve the entanglement of Hua Xianlong... But for the sake of forming a pill, he politely refused.

From then on, there was a vague tension between him and Mu Die.

Therefore, it was understandable that Mu Die called him the "Smiling Tiger".

"This..." Su Binger was speechless, unable to explain to Mu Die.

After all, before this, she and Mu Die were on the same front and were hostile to Wei Tu.

Now, she suddenly admires Wei Tu, which is also a betrayal of Mu Die in a sense.

"Senior Sister Su, there are so many male cultivators in the world, why should we have a single crush on Senior Brother Wei?"

Seeing the hesitation on Su Bing'er's face, Mu Die thought she had persuaded Su Bing'er, so she took Su Bing'er's right arm and tried to persuade her.

"I also know about this, but in my opinion, Senior Brother Wei is different..."

Su Bing'er blushed slightly and defended in a low voice.

"Different?" Mu Dieliu frowned slightly, feeling a little more irritated.

She didn't understand that as both female cultivators, Su Bing'er was temporarily ahead of her in terms of cultivation. In what way was she worse than Su Bing'er?

Wei Tu can save Su Bing'er, but why couldn't he save her more than 100 years ago?

If Wei Tu saves her...

Thinking of Wei Tu's current achievements, Mu Die felt a lot more aggrieved.She was obviously the one who asked Wei Tu for help first, so why was it that Su Bing'er was the one enjoying the benefits?

The two talked and walked all the way until they came to the back hall of the Che Mansion.

"What? Senior Brother Wei just left?"

Su Binger felt disappointed when she heard this.

She thought that Wei Tu was deliberately avoiding her.Otherwise, she would have bumped into Wei Tu on the way to Che Mansion.

"I have a heart, but I have no intention."

"Senior Sister Su, there is no need to..."

Mu Die felt a little more comfortable when she saw this scene, but when she was about to say some words of persuasion, she suddenly thought of something and stopped talking.

After all, Su Binger was also the benefactor who helped her deal with Hua Xianlong.

No need to go overboard.

"Junior sister Mu, maybe... you are right..."

Su Bing'er sighed softly and looked up at the sky in the distance, where the large dark blue eagle was flying far away.

……

Jinlong Valley was the first stop Wei Tu chose before leaving Kang State.

The second stop is Ningyue Palace.

More than ten years ago, because he was kidnapped by Hu Shan and Qi Chengchu, Kou Hongying rushed to Ying Ding in time and picked up Wei Yan's brother and sister, and Wei Xiuwen's only son Wei Changshou.

Later, Wei Tu returned to Kang State. Because the current situation within the Ying Ding Tribe was uncertain, he did not pick up the Wei Yan brothers and sisters to return to the Ding Tribe. Instead, he allowed the three of them to stay in the Ningyue Palace area temporarily.

"Father, are you here?"

"grandfather……"

Outside Jingshui Pavilion, Wei Yan, Wei Xiuwen, and Wei Changshou stood at the foot of the mountain. When they saw Wei Tu flying from a distance, excitement appeared on the three people's faces.

"Grandpa." Wei Changshou, who looked exactly like Wei Xiuwen, now looked like a young monk. He looked at Wei Tu with joy, but there was also some strangeness in his eyes.

After all, Wei Tu had not met him many times in the past few decades.

With Wei Tu, the grandfather, there are more memories of when he was young and smuggled away from the country of Zheng.
