I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 468: Immortal Killing Arrow Gourd, Luqiu Qingfeng (4k2, please subscribe)

Just like last time.

Today, Wei Tu does not have the strength to stop the Yuanying ancestor from freeing himself and committing suicide.

However, now that he has the "Five Elements Spirit Control Technique", a secret technique for refining human puppets, he can still delay Yan Gongcheng's Nascent Soul's self-destruction time.

But...compared to Master Hongjing, Yan Gongcheng doesn't have much information that Wei Tu should be concerned about.

Of course, Wei Tu was not wasted either.

After he found the place where the spiritual crystal was hidden in his soul, he asked the "Savage Withered Claw", the so-called origin of the bones of the Holy Ancestor, and the corresponding information from the Spider Heart Sect, the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce and other forces.

However, what surprised Wei Tu was that Yan Gongcheng's rebellion was not spontaneous, but was prompted by a powerful figure, and he switched from the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce to the Spider Heart Sect.

As for this powerful man, speaking of it, he had met him once not long ago.

"Luqiu Jinyuan."

"Those four people?" When Wei Tu heard this, he glanced at Nangong Partridge in surprise, and said indifferently: "Wei has led them to a safe area, and they are at risk of life or death. It is impossible for Wei to continue to lead the four of them." A burden to run for your life.”

He did not expect that behind a simple confrontation between Nascent Soul forces, the Luqiu clan, the royal family of the Donghua Demon Kingdom, was involved.

Now, after this battle, he already knows the conclusion.

……

Although the Luqiu clan does not have a god-transforming venerable member, the strength of this clan is enough to be called a quasi-god-transforming force.

Wei Tu suddenly thought of this problem.

Wei Tu's face turned gloomy as he softly uttered these four words.

It was only reasonable for the two of them to separate and escape.

If it were someone with whom he had a close relationship, the conclusion he drew at this time might not be applicable.

Hearing this, Nangong Partridge had no doubt that he was there.

Wei Tu supported his chin and thought.

This time, he hired Wei Tu to go to Thunder Island to provide support. One of the important purposes was to test Wei Tu's character to see if he was worthy of training and whether he could become a subordinate of the princess or form an alliance with the princess.

There is no other reason. There are as many as three late Nascent Soul cultivators in this clan. One of them is a peak Nascent Soul master, and is only one step away from reaching the highest level of the Guixuhai Immortal Cultivation World.

Returning to Yuanjun Island, Wei Tu immediately went to the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce, met with Nangong Partridge, and reported the specific status of the mission.

"Although this person is not a sentimental person who appreciates kindness only when he is rich, he still has value in wining over him." Nangong Partridge thought to himself.

Of course, Nangong Quan also knew that the reason why Wei Tu left the four Golden Core cultivators behind and left alone was also related to the alienation of their relationship with him.

"Wei cultivated the Spiritual Eye Technique and saw through the ambush of the Holy Son of Faguang and the Ancient Sect Master on Thunder Island... and then after careful consideration, he and Brother Ziming escaped..."

After the soul search is over.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Quan immediately made a judgment on Wei Tu's character: he was slightly better than an ordinary monk, but he had an indifferent personality and was not a person worth relying on when his own side was in a weak position.

Wei Tu did not stay in Thunder Island for long. After he eliminated the traces of his battle in Yan Gongcheng's cave, he left from the original road and fled in the opposite direction of Thunder Island without looking back.

According to the agreement in the spiritual contract, if he can defeat the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Spider Heart Sect during the battle, the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce will pay him an additional ten spiritual crystals.

"In this case, it is not appropriate for me to reveal the matter of killing Yan Gongcheng to Nangong Part and then get rewarded."

Nangong Partridge raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.

Wei Tu told the truth, but concealed the process of sneaking into Thunder Island and killing Yan Gongcheng.

"In the final analysis, the failure of this support almost put Fellow Daoist Wei and Fellow Daoist Ying into danger, and it is also inseparable from our Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce."

After all, if Nangong Ji really wanted to solve the Thunder Island incident, before he set off, even if Yan Gongcheng was not suspected of treason in the public information, he should have been warned in secret, not after Ziming informed him. , he was alert.

"Since the third prince, Lu Qiu Jinyuan, is behind the Spider Heart Sect, what about the involvement of the Blood Dragon Merchant Guild?"

"What about the four Jindan monks following Fellow Daoist Wei? Where are their figures?"

Although Yan Gongcheng is not a monk of the Spider Heart Sect, but he rebelled to the Spider Heart Sect, he is almost the same as a monk of this sect. His head is worth ten pieces of spiritual crystal.

"Just pretend this never happened!"

Inferring from this, it is not difficult for him to guess that Nangong Quan sent him and Ying Ziming to Thunder Island. I am afraid that the first purpose is to solve the matter on Thunder Island.

Nangong Partridge smiled slightly, took out two spiritual crystals from the storage bag, placed them on the table, and then said such reasonable words.

"Brother Ziming's escape speed is slightly slower than that of Wei. It will probably be later in the evening before he comes back."

But before, Nangong Quan's "slight concealment" when giving him Yan Gongcheng's information made him think more and become suspicious.

This time, without the Golden Core cultivator following him, Wei Tu returned to Yuanjun Island in only two months.

But now, due to his own safety, he had to give up this reward.

The entanglement behind it may be many times more complicated than what he sees now.

After all, Wei Tu and Ying Ziming were just guest ministers of the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce. It was impossible for them to fight bloody battles with them after seeing an ambush on Thunder Island.

Perhaps Luqiu Jinyuan controlled the Spider Heart Sect to simply occupy the territory and search for resources.

"Although Fellow Daoist Wei just made a hard trip, according to the contract, the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce should also pay Fellow Daoist Wei the remaining two spiritual crystals."

Now, Luqiu Jinyuan's intervention has undoubtedly complicated this simple dispute over Nascent Soul forces.

After hearing this, Wei Tu's expression softened a bit. He spoke so coldly just now, but in fact he was deliberately trying to show off to Nangong Quan, so as to vent his dissatisfaction at being almost in danger this time.

Now that Nangong Quan has made a corresponding apology and made up for the remaining reward set in the spiritual contract, he naturally has no reason to be angry.

Even, from another level, he needs to bear a certain responsibility for abandoning his Jindan subordinates midway and then abandoning the place and returning...

If it weren't for his special status, but because he was a guest of Nascent Soul, and his relationship with the Blood Dragon Merchant Guild was a certain degree of cooperation, the guilt this time would be enough for him to walk away unbearable.

After all, the four Golden Core Sovereigns are a force that cannot be ignored in any force.

After another moment of conversation, Wei Tu stood up and said goodbye, leaving the front hall of the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce and heading to the Keqing Cave in the back hall to rest.

"Counting these two spiritual crystals, I have seventeen spiritual crystals on hand."

Entering the cave, Wei Tu waved his sleeves and robes, set up a soundproof array, and then looked at the gains of his trip with excitement on his face.

Of course, the treasures he got from Yan Gongcheng's storage bag this time were not only these fifteen spiritual crystals, but also some other things.

For example, the ferocious claws called "The Bones of the Holy Ancestor" and the secret of the "Nine Yin Zi Mu Flame" used by Yan Gongcheng during the battle.

"However, apart from these spiritual crystals, the thing that is really most valuable to me right now is this thing." Wei Tu turned over his palm, took out a half-foot-high orange gourd, and looked at it carefully.

This yellow gourd, called the "Immortal Killing Arrow Gourd", contains three extremely powerful magic arrows soaked in poisonous water.

According to Yan Gongcheng's memory, the power of this magic weapon is enough to threaten the mid-stage Nascent Soul. It is a treasure that he spent a lot of money to purchase and refine.

However, this "Immortal Killing Arrow Gourd" has one shortcoming, that is, it takes a certain amount of time to activate this treasure.

It just so happened that Wei Tu used a melee attack to secretly attack Yan Gongcheng, leaving him no time to prepare and unleash the corresponding power of the "Immortal Killing Arrow Gourd".

Therefore, during the battle on Thunder Island, this treasure was forced to fall into dust and was never used by Yan Gongcheng.

"But it's a pity that this thing is now in my hands. My good luck has also turned into this thing's disadvantage." Wei Tu sighed lightly.

If one ignores the time required to activate the "Immortal Killing Arrow Gourd", the ability of this object is no less than that of his Yin Yang Demon Corpse, and it can be used as a trump card.

Of course, this is also the case in the Wei Dynasty, when a full man does not know how hungry a man is when he is hungry, and when he is in the midst of blessings, he does not know how blessed he is.

The "Immortal-killing Arrow Gourd" is difficult to compare with the Yin-Yang Demon Corpse, but you must know that the Yin-Yang Demon Corpse was made by Liuyu Taoist, a master of the mid-stage Nascent Soul, who spent hundreds of years and worked hard to refine it.

How could an ordinary Nascent Soul in its early stage have the ability to obtain such a powerful weapon as the Yin-Yang Demonic Corpse.

Most people, if they can get a treasure of the same level as the Immortal Killing Arrow Gourd, they are relying on luck.

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Wei Tu swept his consciousness away, erasing the mark of Yan Gongcheng's consciousness left on the gourd's body, and began to slowly refine the treasure.

half a month later.

Wei Tu sacrificed and refined the Immortal Killing Arrow Gourd successfully.

After adjusting his breath and breathing for a few days, he took out the spiritual crystal from his storage bag and used it to practice again.

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, two spring and autumn years passed.

With the help of these spiritual crystals in his hands, Wei Tu increased his cultivation level extremely quickly. In a short period of time, he increased his cultivation level by nearly a hundred years.

However, even so, Wei Tu was only in the early stage of Yuanying, breaking through a small realm and reaching the "Great Success" in the early stage of Yuanying.

This shows how difficult it is for the ancestor of Yuanying in the world of immortality to break through. The progress of each level requires hundreds of years of slow accumulation.

But for this result,

Wei Tu was already satisfied.

After all, more than 90% of the established Nascent Souls in Kang State are in this realm.

There are only a handful of people who are at their peak in the early stage of Nascent Soul.

Now, he has broken through to this level in less than thirty years. If all the Yuanying monks in Kang country knew about it, they would probably go crazy with jealousy.

"This is the thing. It's so rare and precious."

Wei Tu looked at the only spiritual crystal left on the table and sighed secretly.

As the president of the Thunder Island branch of the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce, Yan Gongcheng's financial resources are already not weak among the early Nascent Soul monks.

But his entire net worth is only fifteen pieces of spiritual crystal.

From this point of view, in order to improve a small realm, he spent all his wealth in the early stage of Yuanying. What a luxurious behavior.

Such behavior must be extremely difficult for him to maintain.

……

Quiet and thoughtful.

After stabilizing his cultivation, Wei Tu did not stay in the cave for long. He planned to go out for some fresh air and inquire about the follow-up information about the battle on Thunder Island.

After all, Yan Gongcheng's death was a big news within the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce.

And what he was most concerned about was whether the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce would link Yan Gongcheng's death to him.

However, as soon as Wei Tu inquired about it, he was so shocked by one of the pieces of information that he could hardly close his mouth.

Ying Ziming died in battle!
These five short words made Wei Tu unbelievable.

It was hard for him to believe that Ying Ziming had not escaped the joint pursuit of two monks of the same level.

"If my escape speed is slightly slower, it is very likely that I will be the one who dies."

A chill ran down Wei Tu's spine.

According to common sense, it was just a simple matter for Ying Ziming, who was in the early stage of Yuanying, to escape the pursuit of two early stage Yuanyings.

After all, the combat power will be superimposed based on the number of people, but the escape speed will not, it will be whatever it is.

In the early stage of Yuan Ying's escape speed, if there is no special secret technique, there won't be much difference at all.

In other words, either the Holy Son of Faguang and the other two had extraordinary escape speed, making it difficult for Ying Ziming to escape pursuit, or they had the means to imprison Ying Ziming's escape, making it difficult for him to escape calmly.

The former is not afraid of Wei Tu, who has cursed ghost and blood escape.

But in the latter, he didn't have the confidence.

"Ying Ziming died... The Blood Dragon Merchant Guild, the only Nascent Soul cultivators left in the main helm are me, Nangong Partridge, and Shen Xiu, who has been in seclusion for many years."

Wei Tu felt greatly in crisis. The Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce that had lost Ying Ziming was no less than losing a pillar at this moment, and it was in a precarious and shaky state.

If he stays here any longer and the house collapses, it might also affect him, the "fish in the pond" who was originally planning to fish in troubled waters.

However, just when Wei Tu was thinking about how to get away reasonably, a monk dressed as a maid walked up to Wei Tu, bowed his sleeves and said: "Senior Wei, the president invites you."

Seeing this scene, Wei Tu immediately understood that his movements after leaving seclusion were probably tightly controlled by Nangong Partridge immediately after Ying Ziming's death.

"I am just a guest of the Chamber of Commerce. I can come and go freely. If he forces me to carry out dangerous tasks, it will be a good reason for us to break up so as not to damage my reputation."

Thinking of this, Wei Tu became very calm.

There are differences between forces.

Business organizations such as the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce have less stringent requirements for joining than sects. If they are prosperous, they will absorb strong people from all over the world, and they will naturally grow faster than the sect. But on the contrary, if they are in the decline stage, the trees will fall and the hozens will scatter. It was just a matter of a moment.

In other words, he does not have much power to restrict guests like him.

Just now, he wanted to get out of the plot, but he just didn't want to ruin their relationship so they could get together and part ways.

After a while.

Under the leadership of the maid, Wei Tu came to a wing of the Blood Dragon Chamber of Commerce and met with Nangong Partridge.

However, during this meeting, there was a young female nun in the room with a white gauze face and a bright yellow palace skirt, with a noble and elegant temperament.

He was sitting at the Eight Immortals table, sipping fragrant tea. After seeing Wei Tu walking in, he turned his head slightly and looked at Wei Tu with a pair of phoenix eyes with a hint of curiosity.

Her temperament, at this moment, seems to be that of the girl next door again.

"I have introduced you to Fellow Daoist Wei. This person is the financial backer of our Blood Dragon Merchant Guild, Luqiu Qingfeng, the nine-emperor daughter of the Luqiu clan."

Nangong Partridge was the first to speak.

"Luqiu Qingfeng?" Wei Tu raised his eyebrows upon hearing this. He had also heard a little bit about this Ninth Princess of the Luqiu clan.

This girl was born with ancestral blood. She was loved by the elders of the Luqiu clan and was hailed as the successor to the next generation clan leader.

But unfortunately, shortly after her birth, Luqiu Jinyuan, who was born in the common people, suddenly rose up and robbed the princess of most of her glory.

From then on, outside the Donghua Demon Kingdom, cultivators only heard the name Luqiu Jinyuan.
