I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 395: Formation blocks the road, Bai Zhi seizes the body (6k big chapter, please subscribe)

After the reward was finalized, Wei Tu no longer hesitated. He followed Cao Mi into the depths of the cave, preparing to operate the "Body Shaping and Spirit Rejuvenation Formation" and cast spells through the air to deprive Shen Yunqiu of his true spirit.

"After the Yueying Snow Phoenix Essence is obtained, I will also have the possibility of transforming into an infant."

Half a day later, when Cao Mi saw that the formations in the cave were under the control of Wei Tu, and they shot out formations of light, excitement suddenly appeared on her face and she murmured softly.

The three levels of Nascent Soul, with her foundation, it is not difficult to break through the first level of "breaking the pill to become a baby".

The really difficult levels are the condensation of "Nascent Soul Spirit Body" in the second level and the "Ling Awakening" calamity in the third level.

But... once you have the essence of Yueying Xuefeng, it will be very difficult to break through these two levels.

The true spirit spirit of Yueying Xuefeng not only helps monks to enlighten their spirits, but also has the effect of purifying mana. It can be regarded as the panacea of ​​Yuanying spiritual things.

Of course, although Moon Shadow Snow Phoenix's essence has a wide range of uses, in terms of specialization, it is far inferior to spiritual objects such as "Psychic Object" and "Ice Soul Fluid".

At most, it can only increase the possibility of Cao Mi breaking through the Nascent Soul from the original low of about 20% to 40 to 50%, reaching nearly half the chance.

Any higher is unrealistic.

On the contrary, for a Wei Tu blessed by two spiritual objects, "Psychic Object" and "Ice Soul Fluid", the probability of proving the Nascent Soul is as high as 60 to 70 percent, not counting the Infant Transformation Pill alone. .

However, Cao Mi obviously didn't know that Wei Tu, who was "ordinary" in front of her, secretly hid this opportunity to become a Nascent Soul that she could covet.

"When we signed the soul oath, Wei Tu was not tempted by the condition that my Nascent Soul Queen become his Taoist companion... Now that I think about it, he is quite sensible."

Cao Mi thought secretly.

Although she guessed that Wei Tu was very likely to be the old Yuanying monster who had taken away the body, but how could the potential of the Nascent Soul monk who had taken away the body be comparable to her, the Nascent Soul monk who would condense the soul for the first time in the future?

The future gap between the two is huge!

At the beginning, the reason why she was willing to promise this was just because she was too anxious and rushed to the doctor because of her illness.

the other side.

Wei Tu, who was activating the formation, didn't know what Cao Mi was thinking. After activating the formation bases one by one, he flipped his palm, took out a jade formation disk, and inserted several complex techniques into it.

This jasper array disk is not only the center of the formation that controls the body shaping and spirit recovery array, it is also a soul magic weapon where Bai Zhi currently lives.

With this cover, Wei Tu didn't need to worry about being discovered by Cao Mi. The monk controlling the formation was actually someone else, not him, a "layman" who didn't understand the formation.

In fact, with Wei Tu's formation attainments, it is more than enough to control some first- and second-level spiritual formations.

But if he was allowed to control this third-level high-grade formation aimed at Shen Yunqiu at this moment, he would be beyond his capabilities.

After a while, the jasper formation plate and the base of the "Body Shaping and Spiritual Recovery Formation" in the cave began to flash with bursts of rays of light. Driven by the formation, these rays of light increased in number and almost filled the entire cave.

"Condensation!" At this time, Wei Tu made a seal with both hands and injected a burst of mana into the jade array.

next moment--

As the voice came out, the glow in the cave suddenly rose, and a clear, melodious and heart-shaking sound of phoenix was emitted.

Immediately afterwards, a colorful phoenix bird protruded from the formation, swept away all the rays of light, turned into a bloody light, and rushed towards the secret door of the spiritual veins below the cave.

"Fellow Daoist Wei's formation skills are indeed impressive. With this great formation, the true spirit of that bitch Shen Yunqiu will definitely be lost!"

Seeing this, Cao Mi couldn't help but look happy, stepped forward and started talking to Wei Tu.

The body-shaping and spirit-reviving formation is a high-level formation that has been passed down from ancient times to the present.

The function of its formation, as the name suggests, is to re-condensate the Taoist body for the monks whose physical bodies have been damaged, and to recall the souls and spirits that still exist in the world.

However, if this array method is used in reverse, the monk's body can also be used to rob the soul of the monk in the distance.

The purpose of the body-shaping and spirit-reviving formation controlled by Wei Tu today is to use the formation in reverse - based on the flesh and blood of Yueying Xuefeng existing in Ningyue Palace, and then depriving Shen Yunqiu of the true spirit essence.

With the help of this formation, Cao Mi was confident that Shen Yunqiu's true spirit would definitely fall into her hands.

"Palace Master Cao, now that important matters have not been accomplished, we must not make a decision lightly." Compared to Cao Mi, Wei Tu was much calmer. He glanced at the jade formation disk suspended in the air and said in a deep voice.

Although they were fully prepared at this moment, Wei Tu did not think that Shen Yunqiu was just a loser and a fool. After all, he was also a major cultivator of the golden elixir and would not sit still and wait for death.

"What Fellow Daoist Wei said is true."

Hearing this, Cao Mi nodded in agreement, and her face immediately returned to a calm expression.

……

same moment.

Jingshui Pavilion, Yuping Mountain.

Houshan Cave Mansion.

After more than 20 years, Shen Yunqiu, who had a false breakthrough back then, is about to have a real breakthrough.

The True Lord of Jingshui Pavilion, who was wearing a golden dress and had a cold temperament, was running his skills at the moment, constantly blending with the aura of Yueying Xuefeng's essence.

With the blending, the round golden elixir in his dantian slowly cracked, revealing extremely pure true energy.

If there were any monks present who could get a glimpse of Shen Yunqiu's cultivation status, they would definitely find that this woman was undergoing the process of "breaking the pill into a baby".

As long as the golden elixir is completely shattered and condensed into the Yuanying spirit body, you can enter the spiritual enlightenment level.

Once the spiritual enlightenment is over and the thunder tribulation is over, you can become the top powerhouse in the world - the ancestor of Nascent Soul.

"After the transformation into infants is completed, I will definitely eradicate Qin Yuling and Kou Hongying! Kill their lineage." Shen Yunqiu thought silently in his heart.

The enemies in her heart, neither Wei Tu nor Wei Yan, were ranked high.

At first, she deliberately blocked Wei Yan's path, but it was just a little willfulness on her part.

The only thing she really hates is Qin Yuling's lineage.

Of course, if given the chance, Shen Yunqiu would not let Wei Tu and his daughter go. After all, the grass must be eradicated. She and Wei Tu and his daughter had already formed a deep hatred, and there was no possibility of reconciliation.

"And Ning Xuefeng!" Suddenly, Shen Yunqiu thought of the person who was against her again.

After the false breakthrough, although Ning Xuefeng did not publicly blame her for causing trouble for the sect, in her words, she intentionally or unintentionally named her several times, which was really hateful.

"After I am certified as a Nascent Soul, this little trouble will be nothing more than the scabies and leprosy problem, not worth mentioning at all."

Shen Yunqiu snorted coldly.

Decades ago, at the high-level meeting of Jingshui Pavilion, Ning Xuefeng gave in on Wei Yan's elixir formation. At that time, she thought that the master of Ning Pavilion was a good person.

I never thought that he and Qin Yuling were of the same breed, hypocritical benevolence and righteousness.

"No! How could I suddenly feel uneasy and think of these things when I made a breakthrough?"

Thinking of this, Shen Yunqiu's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes became a little colder.

Regardless of whether she is a narrow-minded person or not, it stands to reason that with her Taoism, she should not have too many distracting thoughts when she makes a breakthrough, not to mention that she has the spirit of Yueying Xuefeng to help her achieve peace of mind. It's not a hindrance at all.

"Is the Snow Phoenix spirit restless?" Shen Yunqiu sensed this and raised his head to look at the white phoenix bird in front of him.

However, before Shen Yunqiu could think about the reason, a bloody light suddenly appeared in her cave and rushed toward her.

"What is it?" Shen Yunqiu was shocked when he saw this bloody light.

What shocked her was not only the feeling of this blood light sucking the true spirit essence from her body, but also the sudden appearance of this blood light.

After all, as a Nascent Soul seed, the cave she was in was almost the highest level of Jingshui Pavilion's defensive power, and was only under the cave of Master Hongjing.

Nowadays, the monk who controls this blood light can bypass the layers of security forces in Jingshui Pavilion and attack her. If you think about it, you will know that his power and methods must be extraordinary.

"Yueying Xuefeng is my opportunity to prove the Nascent Soul, I can't let it go wrong!" After thinking about it for a while, Shen Yunqiu gritted his teeth and gave up the idea of ​​calling for reinforcements first.

Yueying Xuefeng's essence is not an ordinary chance, but something that used to be in Jingshui Pavilion.

Originally, Ning Xuefeng and others were dissatisfied with her. Now if she calls for reinforcements, once Ning Xuefeng and others find out that her Nascent Soul is the true spirit essence that was lost in the pavilion... then not only will she not be able to keep it This true spirit spirit may, and may, fall into a situation that is beyond redemption.

With Yueying Xuefeng here, she can turn into a baby, and other Jingshui Pavilion golden elixirs can also turn into babies!

Shen Yunqiu has a very clear understanding of herself. She does not think that she is any different from other Jingshui Pavilion Golden Pills.

"This suction force is limited and should be able to withstand it!"

Shen Yunqiu turned his palm, took out a yellow jade seal, used his magic power, and blasted it towards the blood light in front of him.

This yellow jade seal is a third-level high-grade magic weapon. It is extremely powerful. With a casual strike, Shen Yunqiu's cave trembled several times, and there was a hint of looseness in the outer formation.

However, when faced with this bloody light, the yellow jade seal was powerless.

I saw that after the blood glow was dispersed by the yellow jade seal, it regrouped within a moment, and the volume of the blood glow was almost intact.

After Shen Yunqiu's attack failed, the re-condensed blood light fell directly on her body and on her mana shield.

In an instant, Shen Yunqiu felt a very strong suction force, which was constantly absorbing the essence of Yueying Xuefeng from her body.

Her magic power began to disintegrate and dissolve...

Without the support of his magic power, the hair in Shen Yunqiu's bun began to turn white. At this moment, her beautiful face slowly aged, giving birth to wrinkles and dark spots.

In less than a cup of tea, Shen Yunqiu transformed from a cold and charming fairy to a middle-aged woman.

"What kind of destructive means is this?" Shen Yunqiu's delicate body trembled. She made secrets with her hands, constantly trying to use various secret techniques and magical powers to resolve the bloody glow entangled in her body.

But apparently, her attempt failed.

A quarter of an hour later, her appearance changed from that of a middle-aged woman to an old woman in her sixties.

"At this point, there is only one way!"

Shen Yunqiu, who was forced to panic, showed a cruel look on her face. She no longer tried to resolve the blood glow, but pinched the magic formula and began to activate the magic power, swallowing up the Yueying Snow Phoenix essence in her body.

Shen Yunqiu's purpose is simple.

That is to go all out and break the pill directly to form a baby, and use the "Nascent Soul Spirit Body" after the baby is condensed to resolve the crisis in front of it.

Although this move will cause the power of the true spirit to be used up by her prematurely, and her chance of passing the spiritual enlightenment level will be greatly reduced, it is better than having the true spirit taken away by others, causing her to be unable to survive again. No chance of breakthrough.

"Broken!" Shen Yun Qiuqing scolded.

In an instant, the round golden elixir in her Dantian was squeezed by the magic power and turned into thousands of fragments, scattered in the nearby magic spirit sea.

"Becoming a baby at this moment!"

Shen Yunqiu made a secret with both hands and began to use great magic power to forcibly condense the Nascent Soul spirit body.

In just a short moment, a white and tender baby arm was condensed under Shen Yunqiu's magic power.

After the white and tender baby arms appeared in the dantian, they immediately acted like Shen Yunqiu's true body, making secrets with one hand to counteract the bloody light outside the body.

With the help of this white and tender baby arm, Shen Yunqiu suddenly seemed to be able to face the sucking power of the blood light with ease. She also began to regain the power of the true spirit essence that had been lost previously from the blood light.

……

"The power of Nascent Soul?"

Ningyue Palace, inside Cao Midong Mansion.

After sensing that the blood glow was being resolved by Shen Yunqiu, Bai Zhi's expression suddenly changed, and she quickly sent a message to Wei Tu in the jade array. Hearing this, Wei Tu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said to himself that he was unlucky.

This time, due to the departure of the two Nascent Soul ancestors, he and Cao Mi had a ripe opportunity to target Shen Yunqiu, but this was only an external environment, not an internal environment.

Good time for interior environment…

It goes back more than 20 years, to the day when Shen Yunqiu blocked Wei Yan's path.

On that day, Shen Yunqiu was determined to have a false breakthrough.

Its strength is still at the peak of the golden elixir.

But now, that's not the case.

They hit Shen Yunqiu's "real breakthrough" this time.

Shen Yunqiu's strength has now reached the quasi-Nascent Soul stage. It is much higher than the peak of Jindan.

There seems to be only a thin line between these two realms, but their strengths are worlds apart.

After all, the latter has reached the Nascent Soul level.

"However, the good news is that Shen Yunqiu was probably in a hurry to break through in order to deal with the "Body Shaping and Spiritual Recovery Array"... His chances of transforming into an infant must be affected by this."

Bai Zhi said again.

Hearing this, Wei Tu looked better.

At this moment, he used the "Body Shaping Spirit Resurrection Formation" to deprive Shen Yunqiu of his true spirit. Although he was half-finished, the purpose of his trip was mostly completed.

Before coming, his biggest purpose was to destroy Shen Yunqiu's transformation and ruin his path, so that his breakthrough would not be affected in the future.

Judging from this current situation, his goal has basically been achieved.

——The possibility of Shen Yunqiu turning into a baby has become even smaller. There is almost no possibility of a breakthrough.

"It's just that Cao Mi's place..."

Wei Tu frowned.

His goal was achieved, but Cao Mi's goal was far from being achieved.

In addition, after the failure, not only did he have no chance to borrow a Mortal Transformation Pill from Cao Mi, but it was also difficult to get the "true spirit flesh and blood" that Cao Mi had promised him before.

True spirit flesh and blood is related to his body refining skills.

"Is there any other way?"

Wei Tu groaned and asked.

"Yes!" Bai Zhi nodded and said: "Then I sneaked to Shen Yunqiu's cave through the secret door of spiritual veins, used the five ghost soul-eating technique to forcibly seize Shen Yunqiu's body, and then devoured the true spirit essence in her body... "

"When the matter is completed, I will spit out these true spirits."

"Five ghost soul-eating technique?"

Hearing this, Wei Tu's heart moved.

He was no stranger to the five-ghost soul-eating technique. Master Shentu's ghost infant had performed this technique in front of him back then.

He almost succeeded in using this secret technique to seize his body. If it weren't for the power of Jin Zi's fate, it's hard to say whether he is Wei Tu or "Master Shen Tu" now.

"What's the danger?"

Wei Tu's words show concern.

His heart is not made of iron. Bai Zhi has been with him for so many years, but she has worked hard even if she has no merit.

"There is a certain danger. After all, the one who takes over the body this time is a quasi-Nascent Soul master. But with the help of the Body Shaping Spirit Resurrection Array... the chance of success is not low."

"In addition, if the swallowing of the true spirit essence is successful this time, it will also be of great benefit to me. Perhaps, we can use this to find the way to the Nascent Soul."

Bai Zhi pondered for a moment and replied.

She has always been afraid of death. If not, he would not have surrendered to Wei Tu back then.

Therefore, if she had not been quite sure this time, she would not have made such a "bad move".

"Since Fellow Daoist Bai is willing, it would be inappropriate for Wei to stop him." After hearing this, Wei Tu also understood Bai Zhi's thoughts. He nodded and agreed to Bai Zhi's proposal.

Just because he is able to withstand the "Five Ghost Soul-Eating Technique" does not mean that this technique is not powerful.

It can be used as the ultimate secret skill of Master Shentu's ghost baby. It is by no means an ordinary magical power and secret skill.

"However, Mr. Wei does have a treasure that can be temporarily lent to fellow Taoist Bai to increase the possibility of success."

Wei Tu thought for a moment and said in a deep voice.

While speaking, Wei Tu turned his palm, took out the "A Silver Armor" that he had stored in the sea of ​​consciousness, and handed it to the green formation plate where Bai Zhi lived.

This Jia Yuan Silver Armor is the remnant of Master Shen Tu's Ghost Infant, and is a secret treasure of the Soul Dao.

With the help of this treasure, Bai Zhi's success rate in seizing Shen Yunqiu will undoubtedly increase by a few percent.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Wei."

Seeing the "Jiayuan Silver Armor", Bai Zhi, who was in the jasper array, no longer hesitated. She used the array light of the "body shaping spirit array" to cover her ghostly aura and plunged into the spiritual veins underground. Secret door.

However, before leaving, Bai Zhi paused at the secret door of the spiritual veins. She raised her head and took a steady look at Wei Tu who was far away in Cao Mi Cave Mansion.

Bai Zhi's feelings towards Wei Tu are complicated.

If it weren't for Wei Tu, she wouldn't be in the current situation of being a human and a ghost.

But after getting along with Wei Tu for so many years, she has become accustomed to being Wei Tu's "maid".

And give them some guidance on the road.

"I hope fellow Taoist Wei can successfully break through and have an everlasting journey to immortality." Bai Zhi whispered softly.

Although she didn't want to admit it, Wei Tu was now the only trace of her left in the world of immortality.

Wei Tu to a certain extent,

It also carries her path.

After saying this, Bai Zhi turned into a ghostly aura and rushed towards the secret door of the spiritual veins, towards the direction of Jingshui Pavilion.

……

Mirror Water Pavilion.

Yuping Mountain, Houshan Cave House.

Looking at the "Nascent Soul Spirit Body" that was beginning to take shape in his dantian, Shen Yunqiu was happy, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little secret hatred in his heart.

This time, if someone hadn't deliberately plotted against her, why would she have transformed into a baby in such a hurry?

Reduce the chance of success in the first level of enlightenment.

"If I find him, whoever conspired against him will definitely cut him into pieces!" Shen Yunqiu said bitterly.

As he spoke, Shen Yunqiu made a secret, preparing to take away these "bloody lights" in the cave for future use in finding the murderer.

But when she made a move.

Suddenly, a ghostly aura emerged out of thin air and slammed into her.

"What is this?"

Shen Yunqiu was shocked.

At this moment, she had the idea to postpone the breakthrough and move out of this cave first.

After all, no one can stand these successive plots.

"Is it a golden elixir ghost cultivator?"

When Bai Zhi approached, Shen Yunqiu judged the origin of Bai Zhi between the lightning and flint.

After learning about Bai Zhi's level, although Shen Yunqiu was furious, a sneer appeared on her lips.

It is difficult for the Yin spirit of all calamities to become a saint.

Ghost cultivators, unless special people. Generally speaking, they are the bottom among the monks of the same level.

And at this moment, she has initially condensed the "Nascent Soul Spirit Body" and has become a quasi-Nascent Soul monk, possessing some of the power of the Nascent Soul.

With her strength, dealing with this ghost cultivator is just a matter of easy capture.

"Junior, die for me!"

Shen Yunqiu waved his jade sleeve, used the yellow jade seal from before, and suppressed it towards Bai Zhi.

Faced with this heavy blow, Bai Zhi showed a cautious look on her face.

When the yellow jade seal was about to come, she immediately made a secret in the air, splitting the ghost body into several ghost auras, which spread out.

At the same time, Bai Zhi waved her jade sleeves and held out a green formation flag, controlling the blood glow around Shen Yunqiu, using these blood glows to hinder Shen Yunqiu's movements.

In just a short moment, Bai Zhi's rich combat experience was fully demonstrated.

On the other hand, Shen Yunqiu was different.

Shen Yunqiu, a secluded cultivator, had far less combat experience than Bai Zhi. Although he didn't panic after a failed attack, the loopholes in his fighting style were easily found by Bai Zhi after a few rounds.

Five ghost soul-eating technique!

Bai Zhi shuns forward, transforming into five evil ghosts, sweeping up the blood light condensed in the "Body Shaping Spirit Rejuvenation Formation", and slams into Shen Yunqiu's eyebrows and core.

The distance between the two sides was less than a palm's length at this moment.

"Death!" Shen Yunqiu was furious. She controlled the "baby arm" in her dantian and came out of her body, trying to stop Bai Zhi from seizing the body at this moment.

The baby's arms formed a powerful hand of magic power and shot towards Bai Zhi's five ghost auras.

She has not yet succeeded in spiritual awakening, and the Nascent Soul spirit body is now just a dead infant, which has not been integrated with the soul. Facing Bai Zhi's seizure... At this moment, she has almost no similarities or differences with ordinary peak Jindan cultivators.

Once Bai Zhi enters her sea of ​​consciousness, even if she can resist successfully in the end, she will lose her final chance of breakthrough. At the same time, the spirit enlightenment level will also fail due to the confusion of souls.

only--

At this time, one of the five ghost auras suddenly flashed through a solid silver light shield, successfully blocking the attack of Shen Yunqiu's "Baby Arm".

"Not good!" Seeing this scene, Shen Yunqiu's expression changed slightly. At this moment, she no longer hesitated and quickly sent a signal for help to Jingshui Pavilion.

At this time, regardless of whether Bai Zhi failed to seize the body or not, she would be completely dead if she had the opportunity to prove the Nascent Soul.

Rather than doing this, it would be better to bring in reinforcements. Maybe he could even kill Bai Zhi, his enemy.

In this way, the hatred in her heart was relieved.
