I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 396 Success in seizing the body, curse words (please subscribe)

The signal for help came out from Shen Yunqiu Cave Mansion, and soon fell into the eyes of the Jindan in Jingshui Pavilion.

However, it was different from what Shen Yunqiu thought. At this time... not only did the officials of Jingshui Pavilion fail to rescue her immediately, but even the monks in the nearby cave also maintained a wait-and-see attitude.

The difference in popularity is evident.

"Master, after all, Shen Yunqiu is from our sect, and he has the potential to transform into an infant. Now we are standing still. If our ancestors find out, I'm afraid..."

Yuping Mountain, inside a cave.

A young female cultivator flew out of the meeting hall on the top of the mountain and walked in holding a token. She bowed to Ning Xuefeng who was sitting cross-legged in the cave and said.

"I'm afraid?" Upon hearing this, a hint of contempt flashed in Ning Xuefeng's eyes, and she sneered:

"Only Shen Yunqiu? Does he deserve the support of the ancestor?"

"In the heart of our ancestors, all those who have not attained the Nascent Soul are just like ants. Shen Yunqiu is nothing until he has attained the Nascent Soul! Normally, you and I would just let her do something, but now, why should we help her?"

"It's just..." A look of unbearable expression appeared on the young female cultivator's face, "It's just that Shen Yunqiu... is a cultivator sent by me after all. It's not a good thing to treat it like nothing happened now."

She was worried that Ning Xuefeng's indifference to Shen Yunqiu's attack today would offend other colleagues.

After all, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.

To put it ten thousand steps back, no matter how good Shen Yunqiu is, he is still from the same sect.

For other people's own selfish reasons, it's fine not to help. But Ning Xuefeng is the master of a pavilion after all. If she doesn't help, she will easily be criticized.

"Yuting, you regard Shen Yunqiu as a classmate, but she may not remember your kindness this time."

"She is too extreme."

Ning Xuefeng shook her head and sighed softly.

As the master of the pavilion, she could tolerate Shen Yunqiu's hatred of Qin Yuling's lineage, because Qin Yuling's lineage had indeed wronged Shen Yunqiu before.

But she couldn't tolerate it. After Shen Yunqiu vetoed Kou Hongying's proposal, he used a false breakthrough to hinder Wei Yan's path in full view of the public.

After that time, the person who paid for Shen Yunqiu's willful behavior was no one else but Jingshui Pavilion.

Ning Xuefeng is not a holy mother, and she will not advise Shen Yunqiu not to anger innocent people, but as a high-ranking person, it is important to act in a measured manner.

If Shen Yunqiu does this again after being certified as Yuanying, even if she is dissatisfied, she will not comment too much... Because the ancestor of Yuanying has such willful power, even if he slaughters the entire Wei family, some people will applaud him.

But obviously, Shen Yunqiu is not.

After his willfulness, all the mess was left to the sect to deal with.

Of course, Ning Xuefeng had another reason that she didn't tell Hu Yuting, her apprentice, and that was - she predicted that Shen Yunqiu, who had an extreme personality, would already hold a grudge against her as the master of the pavilion because of the last fake breakthrough.

From this perspective, it would be more in her interest as the pavilion master if Shen Yunqiu was killed in a surprise attack or lost the opportunity to prove the Nascent Soul.

——On the premise that it does not affect her own fundamental interests, Ning Xuefeng is happy to see another Nascent Soul Ancestor in the sect. Because after the sect grows, it will also be of great benefit to her future path.

On the contrary, Ning Xuefeng would rather destroy a "Nascent Soul Seed" than harm her own interests.

"Master, how can the ancestor explain it?"

Hu Yuting quickly asked. She didn't want to see her master punished by the sect because of a momentary dispute.

"As a teacher, why did you delay the opportunity because you were in seclusion?"

Ning Xuefeng smiled lightly and didn't care.

In addition to being the Pavilion Master of Jingshui Pavilion, she is also the Golden Pill Overhaul of Jingshui Pavilion. Shen Yunqiu was able to fake a breakthrough that day, why can't she fake a breakthrough today?

In addition, as long as she delayed the rescue for a moment, Shen Yunqiu, who was in danger, would be in more danger.

Why wouldn't she do it.

"Yes, Master."

Hearing this, Hu Yuting had no doubts anymore. She bowed, said goodbye and left, preparing to return to the meeting hall to deal with other senior officials from the same sect who came after hearing the news on behalf of Ning Xuefeng.

……

Yuping Mountain, the meeting hall.

After Shen Yunqiu's signal for help was sent out, within a short time, all the golden elixirs from Jingshui Pavilion gathered here.

"What did the Pavilion Master say?"

"Are you going to rescue Senior Sister Shen (Uncle Shen)?"

When the cultivators saw Hu Yuting flying over, they immediately stood up and came forward, gathered around and asked.

These words didn't sound wrong, and seemed to show enough concern for Shen Yunqiu. However, Hu Yuting, who had already been in Ning Xuefeng Cave Mansion, could easily tell that these fellow Jindans were just doing "routine business."

If these people were really worried about Shen Yunqiu's safety, they would have rescued him privately by now. Why stay in the meeting hall and wait for news.

"The master of the pavilion is in retreat. As a disciple, I can't forcefully wake her up, so I have to put a talisman letter at the door..."

"I hope the Pavilion Master can see it soon."

Hu Yuting looked guilty, as if she was blaming herself for her failure in doing things.

After finishing speaking, Hu Yuting paid attention to observe the reaction of fellow disciple Jin Dan who was present when he heard what she said.

She keenly observed that after hearing her words, several people breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of gloating on their faces.

Especially the two girls Qin Yuling and Kou Hongying who had a grudge against Shen Yunqiu, the secret joy on their faces could hardly be concealed.

As for the other monks, although the changes in expressions on their faces were not so drastic, their lack of expression at the moment was enough to prove everything.

"Unexpectedly, Shen Yunqiu's popularity is so bad? Decades ago, when he refuted Kou Hongying's proposal, he had to be supported by everyone."

Hu Yuting thought secretly.

At this moment, the behavior of these classmates made her think of the words "adding insult to injury".

After all, except for Qin Yuling and Kou Hongying, who clearly had a grudge against Shen Yunqiu, the other disciples had always behaved harmoniously when dealing with Shen Yunqiu, and did not seem to have any personal grudges at all.

Hu Yuting did not know that the attitudes of these fellow disciples largely depended on the attitude of her master Ning Xuefeng. Ning Xuefeng was partial to Shen Yunqiu, so these fellow disciples would support Shen Yunqiu.

On the contrary, if Ning Xuefeng "does business business", these fellow disciples will stand clearly behind Ning Xuefeng.

Ning Xuefeng greatly affected their attitude in high-level meetings.

And this is the result of Ning Xuefeng's prestige accumulated over three hundred years after becoming the master of Jingshui Pavilion.

but--

Even so, some monks are still worried about the consequences of sitting idly by this time.

After all, Shen Yunqiu is not an ordinary monk, but a golden elixir major cultivator in the sect who is expected to transform into an infant.

"Shen Yunqiu is narrow-minded. He was able to vent his anger on Wei Tu's family more than 20 years ago. If she finds out about what we are doing today... I'm afraid it won't be good."

"In my opinion, we should go outside the cave first and wait and see for a while. Then we will decide whether to advance or retreat..."

The cultivators whispered.

Soon, some Jindan Zhenjun in the meeting hall made a decision and adopted a compromise strategy.

They bowed to Hu Yuting and flew to the vicinity of Shen Yunqiu Cave Mansion, intending to wait and see nearby before deciding whether to rescue her.

However, it is a pity——

Because these Jindan True Monarchs were delayed in the meeting hall for too long, their best opportunity to rescue Shen Yunqiu had already been missed.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on these "neutral golden elixirs". After all, it was difficult for them to predict that when Shen Yunqiu sent out a signal for help, he had not just encountered the enemy, but had already been fighting with it for a long time.

In fact, the souls of both sides are already fighting to the death in the sea of ​​consciousness.

……

"why?"

"No one has come yet?"

On the other side, inside Shen Yunqiu Cave Mansion.

Shen Yunqiu, who was fighting with Bai Zhi to seize the body, noticed that there was no movement outside the cave, a look of astonishment first flashed on her face, as if she couldn't believe it.

After a while, this look of surprise turned into a look of deep resentment.

Shen Yunqiu is not stupid. She knows that this is because her fellow disciples are unwilling to come to support her, rather than for any other reasons.

However, she never expected that at this critical moment, there would be fellow monks who were obsessed with the previous petty grudges and completely forgot about the righteousness of the sect.

"It must be this bitch Ning Xuefeng!"

Shen Yunqiu gritted his teeth.

Apart from Ning Xuefeng having the power to order fellow monks not to support her, she could not think of any other reason.

She didn't think it was her fault!

Because everything today was owed to her by Jingshui Pavilion.

After all, if Jingshui Pavilion hadn't intervened, how could she have been alone for hundreds of years?

Alone!

"It's so pitiful that no monk from Jingshui Pavilion has come to save you yet."

"Shen Yunqiu, as a human being as you are, I'm afraid there is no one like you in the world."

In Shen Yunqiu's consciousness, several solid black ghostly auras were surrounding the soul of a golden phoenix bird, constantly biting away at it. In the process of biting, a black ghost energy suddenly transformed into Bai Zhi's head, and the corner of its mouth smiled and kept taunting.

"Shut up!" Fengniao's soul, Shen Yunqiu's soul, shouted angrily: "You devil, what do you know? If you are like me, I'm afraid you are not as good as me!"

"Do you understand what Jingshui Pavilion did to me?"

"Yulang and I were in love, but just because of Jingshui Pavilion's selfishness, we broke up abruptly. Afterwards, he notified Taixuanzong that Yulang would not come out to see me for a hundred years..."

"Shouldn't I resent the sect?"

Shen Yunqiu laughed sarcastically several times, his body looking slightly crazy.

He didn't notice——

At this moment, the blood glow of the body-shaping spiritual formation had completely invaded her body, turning her from a cold and beautiful fairy into an old woman with chicken skin and white hair.

In other words, it was not that Shen Yunqiu was unsettled at the moment, but that the restlessness caused by the true spirit being taken away step by step made it difficult for her to feel at ease.

"No! I don't want to die!"

After half a cup of tea, Shen Yunqiu saw his phoenix soul shrinking smaller and smaller, and the ghost energy transformed by Bai Zhi getting stronger and stronger. Shen Yunqiu showed a look of horror and unwillingness on his face.

"Spare me. Spare me."

Shen Yunqiu began to beg for mercy.

At this moment, she really felt what it meant to be in heaven and hell.

Half a day ago, she was a major cultivator of Jingshui Pavilion's golden elixir that was expected to transform into a baby, and was admired by thousands of people.

Even if she offended Wei Tu, a third-level alchemist, she could only pinch her nose and admit it. She didn't dare to come to trouble her at all and could only admit that she was unlucky.

But half a day later...

Not only would she no longer have the opportunity to obtain the Nascent Soul without a certificate, but her physical body would also be taken away.

What's even more tragic is that none of the fellow monks came to save her.

The previous admiration of thousands of people seemed... just a joke.

"Fellow disciples of Jingshui Pavilion, I curse you, you will never be able to escape from generation to generation. From now on, no one in the sect can break through Nascent Soul!"

Seeing that begging for mercy was in vain, Shen Yunqiu's eyes showed hatred. At the last moment of his life, he borrowed his magic power and shouted such a curse word outside the cave.
