I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 358: Recovering the body refining realm and breaking through the late stage of Jindan (5k big chapter)

The next day.

Under Wei Tu's surveillance, Yan Xiaolan contacted privately "Yan Limei", the housekeeper sent by the Yan family, to report yesterday's news to Wei Tu.

Yan Limei's apparent identity is the housekeeper sent by the Yan family to Xiaohan Mountain to take care of Yan Xiaolan, their legitimate daughter, but in fact, she is Yan Xiaolan's aunt.

"You are still a virgin. Senior Cui didn't touch you yesterday? Or did you resist on purpose?" Yan Limei glanced at Yan Xiaolan and frowned.

Whether Yan Xiaolan is perfect or not, she, who has been through it all, can tell at a glance.

In addition, Wei Tu's cultivation is a level higher than that of Yan Xiaolan. If the two had sex yesterday, it would be difficult for Yan Xiaolan to refine Wei Tu's aura today.

"Senior Cui... wanted to touch me, but he saw that I couldn't practice dual cultivation techniques and my level was low, so he started refining alchemy at night and gave me a chalcedony pill to practice first."

Yan Xiaolan had prepared a plan in her mind last night. Now facing the cross-examination of her clan aunt Yan Limei, she would not be frightened and could talk eloquently.

While talking, Yan Xiaolan took out the chalcedony pill that Wei Tu had given her yesterday and placed it on the table.

"That's it." After hearing this, Yan Limei's tense expression softened slightly.

She picked up the elixir bottle and gently smelled the elixir fragrance. Seeing that it was indeed a newly refined elixir, she nodded secretly.

However, as soon as she picked it up, Yan Limei was a little reluctant to put it down. She and Yan Xiaolan were both in the early stages of foundation building, and the Chalcedony Pill was quite tempting to her.

Seeing this scene, Yan Xiaolan sneered secretly and strengthened her previous thoughts.

That is to seek refuge in Wei Tu and seek greater benefits and rewards.

After all, if she follows the Yan family's strategy and Wei Tu dies in a few decades, even though she has the status of Wei Tu's "widow", she will definitely get the smallest share of the inheritance.

The big head will be taken away by the family!

It is impossible and will not be possible for the Yan family to hand over the inheritance of a True Lord Jin Dan to her hands.

But if she serves Wei Tu well and wins Wei Tu's favor - the benefits of exposing the seams between Wei Tu's fingers when Wei Tu is alive will be enough for her to squander and become rich in one day.

Even if he goes one step further, Wei Tu might "transfer" most of the inheritance to her before he dies.

Yan Xiaolan doesn't think this is a fool's dream.

She was the only person who stayed by Wei Tu's side before he died. It was better to leave the inheritance to her than to the ambitious Yan family.

Yes, Yan Xiaolan has completely separated herself from the Yan family at this moment.

The daughter who is married off is the water that is thrown out.

Her priority was that she was Wei Tu's concubine, followed by that of a monk of the Yan family and the daughter of Yan Zhenping.

"If there is any movement here, Senior Cui, remember to report to me as soon as possible..."

"The family will not treat you badly."

Yan Limei reluctantly returned the Chalcedony Pill to Yan Xiaolan and said this as usual.

Won't you be treated badly?

Yan Xiaolan sneered.

The benefit the family promised her was that after the event was completed, she would be given a "Blue Flame Pill" and treated like the seeds of the family's golden elixir.

But Yan Xiaolan believed that during the decades she had served Wei Tu, with Wei Tu's generous spending, there was a high probability that she would be able to get more rewards than the benefits promised by the family...

But on the surface, Yan Xiaolan did not reveal her inner thoughts.

She nodded, bowed to the clan aunt Yan Limei, and agreed to the family's request.

"If Senior Cui behaves strangely, Xiaolan will definitely inform the family in advance."

Yan Xiaolan made a guarantee.

After hearing this answer, Yan Limei secretly said that Xiaolan had not forgotten her roots, and then left with satisfaction.

But the next moment, less than a few breaths later, Yan Xiaolan knocked on the retreat room where Wei Tu was and reported her private contact with Yan Limei.

"When you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, and when you marry a dog, follow the dog. Since Xiaolan has married into the Cui family, she is the wife of the Cui family, and of course she is a member of the Cui family. She should abide by the duties of the Cui family..."

Faced with her backstabbing of her family, Yan Xiaolan did not feel any psychological burden. She explained the reason in front of Wei Tu.

This explanation is reasonable.

Hearing this, Wei Tu also looked at Yan Xiaolan with admiration.

He secretly thought that what Bai Zhi said yesterday was indeed true. Yan Xiaolan could marry him, the "old man," for profit, and naturally she could betray the family for profit.

His character is that of a refined self-interested person.

"I'm very pleased that you can think so." Wei Tu showed admiration, confirming Yan Xiaolan's words.

Regardless of whether Yan Xiaolan's ideas are good or bad, it is a good thing for him that he has betrayed his family and taken refuge with him.

"These are the three chalcedony pills left last night, and they are given to you." Wei Tu turned his palm, took out a blue pill bottle, and handed it to Yan Xiaolan in front of him.

"Thank you, Senior Cui."

Yan Xiaolan's face was filled with excitement.

These three chalcedony pills, plus the chalcedony pill given to her by the avant-garde picture, are enough to push her cultivation to the middle stage of foundation building.

Just on the first day she married into Xiaohanshan, she got this great opportunity. This was something Yan Xiaolan had never dared to think about before.

Seeing this, Wei Tu showed a faint smile.

The market price of four chalcedony pills is about three thousand spiritual stones, but to him, they are only worth a pair of chalcedony pills.

It cost less than a thousand spirit stones to stabilize the traitor Yan Xiaolan, so he didn't lose much.

"If you have performed well in the years when I am about to die, after the Biyan Pill is completed, I will consider it and give you one."

Wei Tu opened his mouth and promised huge profits.

"Thank you, Senior Cui, for your support." After hearing this, Yan Xiaolan no longer had any attachment to her family. She just wanted to hug Wei Tu's thick thigh and plan her future as a fairy.

She was tempted by Wei Tu's huge profit and almost fainted.

Yan family? What kind of!

Not as good as a hair of Senior Cui.

……

Next.

At Bai Zhi's suggestion, Wei Tu gave Yan Xiaolan a dual cultivation technique called "Luan Feng Gong".

To act, you have to do the whole thing.

Just now, since Yan Xiaolan and Yan Limei came up with the reason why they were forced to postpone the process of dual cultivation because they had never practiced the dual cultivation method during their private contact... then it was not appropriate for him to expose this lie.

Moreover, this reason is indeed appropriate.

Apart from sexual desire, most of the intercourse between monks is for the purpose of dual cultivation and improving one's personal cultivation.

The first time a virgin practices dual cultivation, it often helps the other party’s cultivation the most.

Wei Tu is old and dying, so improving his cultivation seems to be of little use, but in fact, with Yan Xiaolan's pure Yin Yuan, he can extend his life to a certain extent.

For this reason, Wei Tu will not touch Yan Xiaolan for the time being. In the eyes of the Yan family, it is a reasonable thing and they will not think too much about it.

"Besides, "Luan Feng Jue" is a furnace-caulding technique. If Yan Xiaolan practices this technique, the Yan family will not be suspicious." Bai Zhi chuckled a few times.

She still remembered that she had suggested that Wei Tu take in Qiu Huaisu and use it as a dual cultivation cauldron to increase his power and advance to the realm of golden elixir.

At that time, Wei Tu said that this was the devil's way of doing things, and that he was a man of the right path and would never take advantage of opportunities.

But now, Wei Tu has not fallen, and has chosen to let Yan Xiaolan practice the furnace cauldron technique.

Of course, Bai Zhi was just thinking about it in her mind. She didn't think Wei Tu had any other plans for Yan Xiaolan.

The monks of the Hehuan Sect cultivate the furnace cauldron and use dual cultivation to improve their realm. This is because this shortcut to improve their cultivation is relatively cost-effective.

As for Wei Tu, a third-level alchemist, there is no need to take this shortcut. The pure Yin Yuan of the Foundation Establishment female cultivator is far inferior to a furnace of third-level elixirs.

Bai Zhi has always been convinced of Wei Tu's integrity.

He is not a pure righteous monk and will not harm his own interests for the sake of the so-called righteous path.

But he will not deliberately do evil things for his own selfishness.

Bai Zhi believes that the only criticism of Wei Tu so far is that he robbed and killed Yu Wencheng.

After all, Yu Wencheng and Wei Tu had no interaction before, just because Yu Wencheng was a monk from the Sun Shooting Department... He first framed him, and then killed him.

However, thinking about the plots of the two major tribes, the Sheri Tribe and the Fengwu Tribe, against Wei Tu, Bai Zhi felt that what Wei Tu did was reasonable and reasonable.

People can express their anger.

Wei Tu is not a saint.

……

With Yan Xiaolan's cooperation, neither the Yan family of Lou Gaozong nor Master Dun'er and others who were hiding in the dark had any doubts about Wei Tu.

Half a month passed by in a flash.

Bai Zhi relied on her own formation attainments and Wei Tu's Taimiao Mirror to finally crack the sealing formation under Xiaohan Mountain.

"Is this the ice soul fluid?" Wei Tu escaped underground and looked at the ice pool in his empty stomach underground, with excitement on his face.

This ice pool is probably several feet in diameter. There is a freezing cold air visible to the naked eye on the surface of the pool, and large tracts of crystal floating ice flow in the water.

If Wei Tu didn't know that the spiritual fluid in the ice pond was "Ice Soul Liquid", he might have thought that the ice pond was just an ordinary spiritual land.

"It's just a pity that Yu Wencheng has used this ice soul liquid once before, and the concentration of the ice soul liquid in the water has been greatly reduced... If I want to use this pool of ice soul liquid to completely cleanse my body, it will take at least ten years. "

After checking the status of the ice pool, Wei Tu sighed with a solemn look on his face.

Today, the trade routes between Xiao and Kang have been blocked for seven years. Seven years is long enough.

It is possible that next year, or in a few years, after the Tianyi Sect has reached an agreement with the major merchants, this trade route will be smooth again.

By then, the Yan family outside Xiaohan Mountain and the Sun Shooting Department far away in Kang State will all target him.

The former is for his legacy after his death and is worried that he will take advantage of the recovery of trade between the two countries to run away again.

The latter, because of Yu Wencheng's "unaccounted whereabouts", would immediately be alert to whether the ice soul liquid under Xiaohan Mountain had been leaked.

Wei Tu must be on guard against these foreseeable things.

Of course, there is also a possibility that until he has soaked in the ice soul liquid, the trade routes between the two countries have not been restored, and he can hide the truth like he did at the Mingwangmen.

"What a pity! Fellow Daoist Wei does not have the spiritual materials to build a teleportation array. Otherwise, with my knowledge of the formation, it would be feasible to build a teleportation array here." Bai Zhi said to herself.

With the teleportation array, Wei Tu can advance and retreat freely in Xiaohan Mountain. Even if Lou Gaozong and the Sheri Department invade, he can easily retreat.

However, just like the third-level elixir, the spiritual materials needed to build the teleportation array are controlled items and are difficult to buy even if you have money.

As for the black market…

Generally, such spiritual materials are not sold.

Hearing this, Wei Tu couldn't help but think of the "instant teleportation array" used by Ji Zhang when he boarded the Yunfeizhou seven years ago.

The instant teleportation array is not an ordinary teleportation array, with a fixed range and location. It can be used multiple times at any time, anywhere.

It is a higher level escape weapon than the Small Movement Talisman.

"It is convenient to set up a teleportation array in Xiaohan Mountain, but it is not necessary. Just pay attention to the information on when the trade routes between Xiao and Kang will be restored."

Wei Tu shook his head.

Of course, that's what he said, but it was impossible for Wei Tu not to be prepared.

He planned to inquire about trade route information while secretly collecting spiritual materials for the teleportation array, so as to achieve both goals.

By then, even if the complete teleportation array spiritual materials are not collected, they can still be used next time.

"Of course, it would be great if we could get the instant teleportation array in Ji Zhang's hands." Wei Tu thought secretly.

But Wei Tu also understood how unreliable his idea was.

He and Ji Zhang had no friendship, so it was impossible for Ji Zhang to give up this life-saving trump card to him.

……

After telling Bai Zhi to go out and be on guard.

Wei Tu took off his clothes, stepped into the ice pool, and absorbed the ice soul liquid inside.

The moment when the pool water comes into contact with the legal body.

Immediately, Wei Tu felt the lightness that spread from the soles of his feet to the heavenly spirit, as if he was about to ascend and fly directly into the Qingming.

The ice soul liquid began to continuously cleanse Wei Tu's body and purify the mana in the body.

After soaking for a while, Wei Tu had another wonderful feeling, as if everything had calmed down and moved slowly in his mind.

The law is effective!

Not only did his magic power become more agile, but he also seemed to have a certain spirituality.

"In the next ten years, maybe I can borrow the ice spiritual liquid to break through the late stage of the Golden Core."

Wei Tu turned over his palm and took out some third-level middle-grade elixirs he had practiced over the past few decades.

There is a certain amount of erysipelas in the elixir.

In the past, when he practiced, he used the "Yuanzhong Dharma Ban" to purify his magic power and eliminate the influence of erysipelas.

But when it comes to the golden elixir realm, it will inevitably be a little slower to separate the erysipelas in the elixir using the Yuanzhong method.

Although Yuan Zhong Divine Light also has the wonderful effect of controlling gravity, in terms of purifying mana, it is far less useful than Yuan Zhong Magic Ban during the foundation building stage.

In short, what restricted him from breaking through the realm was not the lack of elixirs, but the fear of the potential impact of erysipelas.

Nowadays, the ice soul liquid has the wonderful effect of purifying mana, which just makes up for this shortcoming of his.

……

Wei Tu was lucky.

Five years have passed, and the trade routes between Xiao and Kang still show no sign of resumption.

According to the meddlers, "Ji Zhang", the head of the Tianyi Sect who caused the trouble, is the illegitimate son of a certain Nascent Soul Ancestor in the sect.

Therefore, the Tianyi Sect would rather lose some of the sect's interests but also want to keep Ji Zhang.

There are even rumors circulating that Ji Zhang is currently in the Tianyi Sect, breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm.

However, Wei Tu did not believe these rumors easily. He sent a letter to Zhao Huamin asking about the first-hand information held by the Zhao family in Shengya.

However, it turns out.

No wind, no wave.

Ji Zhang was indeed the illegitimate son of a certain Nascent Soul ancestor of the Tianyi Sect, as rumored. However, his biological father was none other than Ji Yifeng, the head of Tianyi Sect, his teacher.

However, the Tianyi Sect's protection of Ji Zhang was not entirely due to this status, but to resist the "forced palace" after the major chambers of commerce joined forces.

The reason why it is called forced uterus...

It's because in the Xiao Kingdom, there were major immortal sects first, and then major chambers of commerce for cross-border trade.

Every large chamber of commerce is inextricably linked to the immortal sects in the Xiao Kingdom. The power of many chambers of commerce has always been firmly held by the senior officials of the Immortal Sect.

However, as time goes by, the major chambers of commerce gradually grow stronger with the help of trade profits, and there are gradually signs that their branches are outweighing their roots.

In other words, the pressure exerted by the major chambers of commerce on the Tianyi Sect is actually a movement by the chamber’s top executives to compete for power with the Xianmen’s top brass...

Unfortunately, Ji Zhang became this target and excuse.

Therefore, once the Tianyi Sect gives in, it means that the Xiao Kingdom will enter a new era - the Chamber of Commerce and the Immortal Sect will jointly control the Xiao Kingdom.

The emergence of this consequence is intolerable to many immortal sects.

Therefore, many immortal sects have been secretly supporting Tianyi Sect behind their backs to prevent Tianyi Sect from surrendering quickly.

"Internal changes are different from war. Even though the major immortal sects have overwhelming absolute power, the palms and backs of their hands are all flesh... You can't just suppress all the major chambers of commerce regardless of the reasons..."

"It depends on who can't bear it first."

Wei Tu analyzes the situation and makes a judgment.

He guessed that the outcome of the matter would most likely end with the Tianyi Sect surrendering.

The Chamber of Commerce can jointly exert pressure and force Tianyi Sect to make concessions, but it is difficult for the major immortal sects to do this. It has no drive for radical unity.

After all, a dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist.

The Chamber of Commerce refused to trade, and other major immortal sects who were waiting to share the money were the first to refuse.

However, Wei Tu still hopes that Tianyi Sect can continue to withstand the pressure and help him gain another five years.

Over the past five years, more than 80% of the hidden injuries in his body have recovered. In another year or two, he will be back to his prime.

……

Time passes slowly.

In the blink of an eye, another two years passed.

Wei Tu's body-refining realm has been completely restored, even improved to a higher level, and his cultivation has improved again.

However, after this calamity, the body refining elixir collected by Wei Tu in Liaozhou was completely consumed.

"Senior Cui, why are you getting more energetic as you live?" Yan Xiulan, who was living in Xiaohan Mountain, was secretly surprised and puzzled when she saw Wei Tu's full mental state.

Normal old monks, in the last few decades of their lives, are like candles in the wind. They will age very quickly, and it will be difficult to maintain the loss of Qi and blood.

Wei Tu seems to violate this rule.

Yan Xiulan's discovery was not due to Wei Tu's negligence, but because he was "overflowing with energy" and it was not easy to maintain the aging state of the old golden elixir.

Fortunately, Yan Xiulan was not suspicious, and just thought it was her own misunderstanding, or... Wei Tu's test of her.

After all, Wei Tu's old age has been confirmed by the family's golden elixir.

What clues can she tell from just a small foundation?

"I hope Senior Cui will live longer."

Yan Xiulan was quite conflicted.

On the one hand, she hopes that Wei Tu will die early so that she can inherit the inheritance and be completely liberated.

On the one hand, she was worried that Wei Tu would die prematurely, causing her to confront her family in advance and turn against her.

……

Wei Tu didn't know what Yan Xiulan was thinking.

While his body refining realm was recovering, his qi refining realm was also driven by it, and the bottleneck in the later stages of the golden elixir was faintly loosened.

"The breakthrough to the late stage of Jindan is now."

Wei Tu took out the "Blood Crane Pill" he had refined several years ago, poured out one pill, raised his neck and swallowed it.

　I've had a fever for the past two days. I feel so dizzy from the fever that I fall into a coma after writing for a while. Everyone, please pay attention to the seasonal changes, and don’t fall for it like me.

　　woo woo woo...
