Chapter 585: Selling one’s family for glory, a kiss from junior sister, carving a name out of the sky (5k, please subscribe)
"Fourth-level great demon? It seems that Fellow Daoist Wei is hiding deeper than you and I thought."
“It should be an opportunity in Taixu.”
“He got the resources to break through the fourth level in the Sky-cracking Eagle in Taixu territory.”
While the monks from the Ying Ding tribe were discussing heatedly, the two masters Dulong and Hedi who stayed in the tribe secretly gathered together and communicated secretly.
The two of them had seen Wei Tu's Sky-Splitting Eagle before and knew that it had no potential to grow into a fourth-level monster.
Even for him to break through the third-level monster, there is a suspicion that Wei Tu is trying to encourage his efforts.
Nowadays, the only reason why the Sky-Splitting Eagle can break through the fourth-order monster is "good luck".
It's just that... Master Dulong and Master Hedi, who had guessed this, although their eyes were hot, they did not dare to have any idea of depriving themselves of this opportunity.
There is no other reason.
Now Wei Tu, as the strongest member of the Ying Ding Tribe, already has the strength to protect this opportunity.
Weitu's realm is even higher than what outside cultivators know. He has reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he has a record of killing the powerful "Six Desire Taoist" at the same level.
At this time, it was too late for them to curry favor with Wei Tu, so how could they have the idea of offending Wei Tu and following in the footsteps of the Six Desire Taoists.
“Yuan Jie is dead, and the position of King Youxian is vacant. Maybe...”
Master Hedi hesitated to speak and hinted.
"you mean?"
“Let the Wei family monks take over?”
Hearing this, Divine Master Dulong immediately understood, and there was a hint of hesitation on his face.
Strictly speaking, Wei Tu and Ding Bu are “outsiders”.
is an "overseas Chinese cultivator" from the State of Zheng.
And Wei Tu's descendants, both Wei Yan and Wei Xiuwen, were also born in Zheng State and were not fully integrated into the Ying Ding tribe and became Ying Ding tribe members.
The position of King Youxian is a symbol of secular royal power within the Ying Ding tribe.
It would be too bold to let an outsider take charge.
Even with the support of a few of their great masters, it would be difficult to convince the public. After all, public opinion is hard to disobey, and not many Yingding tribe members are willing to accept an 'outsider' to rule them.
“I remember that Wei Changshou, the only grandson of fellow Taoist Wei, grew up in our clan?”
"Now, he has reached the late stage of foundation building, and it won't be long before he is about to condense his elixir."
Master Hedi paused and said.
“Wei Changshou?”
Divine Master Dulong understood what Divine Master Hedi meant.
Essentially, he wanted to promote Wei Longshou to the throne.
Different from other ancestors who said "more children bring blessings", Wei Tu had only one grandson, Wei Changshou. In Wei Tu's eyes, Wei Changshou was not much different from his children.
There is not much difference between promoting the longevity of Wei and ascending to the throne, and promoting the children of Wei Tu to ascend to the throne.
Moreover, because Wei Changshou grew up in the Yingding tribe and was a "third generation overseas Chinese", he could barely be considered a member of the Yingding tribe and would not suffer much criticism.
“In doing so, you and I are almost flattering.”
Master Dulong sighed. He was hesitant, worried that after he passed away, this matter would affect his reputation in the future.
After all, making friends with Wei Tu and flattering are two completely different things and cannot be confused.
Let’s put it bluntly.
He did not want to sell his family to seek glory and please Wei Tu.
Master Hedi may be able to gain his appreciation by trying to please Wei Tu, and get some opportunities from Wei Tu, and then there is the possibility of going further, but why would he, who has half his foot in the coffin, bother to do this?
However, after hearing this, Master Hedi did not show any shame on his face. He stroked his beard and said only one sentence.
“How does Master Dulong think our family’s strength compares to that of the Wei family?”
The voice fell.
Master Dulong’s expression suddenly changed slightly.
Previously, Wei Tu, as a powerful person in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, could rival their three great masters alone.
Now, with the addition of a fourth-level monster, the Sky-Splitting Eagle, it can be said that the top strength of the Wei family is no less than that of the Ying Ding tribe.
In other words.
The current Wei family seems to be within the Ying Ding tribe and dependent on the Ying Ding tribe, but in fact, with the strength of the Wei family, it is enough to compete with the Ying Ding tribe.
Let "Wei Changshou" serve as the new right virtuous king. It seems that they are flattering, but is this not a strategy to stabilize the clan?
After all, the Wei family has "no power", so why would they be willing to remain under the Ying Ding tribe and remain a small family?
“It’s me, I didn’t think much about it.”
Master Dulong sighed and replied.
The meaning of the words is obviously that he agreed with the proposal of Master Hedi to make "Wei Changshou" the right virtuous king of the clan.
…
At the same moment.
Inside the residence of the divine master of Wei Tu.
Different from the joy of sister Wei Yan, when Su Bing'er saw this scene, her eyebrows became more sad.
“The gap is getting bigger and bigger...”
Su Binger sighed lightly, with a look of loneliness on her face.
At that time, she and Wei Tu became disciples of "Che Gongwei" at the same time. As the "Master Qingmei", her realm was higher than that of Wei Tu.
Nowadays, although she has reached the late stage of the golden elixir, and is not far away from the matter of condensing the baby, she is still at the forefront among all the spiritual body golden elixirs in the world of immortal cultivation, but... this achievement she has achieved, Compared with Wei Tu, there is a huge difference.
To use a more cruel expression...
That is, right now, she is not even comparable to the spiritual beasts around Wei Tu.
Now, seeing the person she was supposed to be walking with walking further and further away, even if she quickened her pace, it would be difficult to catch up... How could she be "reconciled" to this easily?
“Perhaps, it’s time for me to go out and look for opportunities.”
Su Bing'er raised her head, glanced at the wall of the Divine Master's Mansion outside the window, and made plans to escape from the protection of Wei Tu's wings.
The opportunity to conceive a baby cannot wait.
Weitu is only her senior brother and not her biological father, so it is impossible for her to provide her with resources to conceive a baby in the future.
She should be self-aware of this.
Besides, now is the right time for her to leave.
—"Ji Wuya" died, and within a short period of time, the Hehuan Sect would no longer keep an eye on the Ying Ding Department.
She will be safe when she leaves.
“Goodbye, Senior Brother Wei.”
“Next time, when we meet again, Bing’er will definitely not be as weak as she is today.”
Su Bing'er finally made up her mind. Her eyes showed determination, and she once again had the temperament of the "Qingmei Master" who is a non-commercial cultivator.
After leaving a farewell letter, she waved her jade sleeves and strode out of the house.
only-
Just took a few steps.
A gentle voice suddenly appeared in Su Bing'er's ears.
“Senior Brother Wei?” Su Binger looked a little embarrassed, feeling as if she had run away from home and been caught by her elders.
“It’s good for Junior Sister Su to go out and look for opportunities to have a baby, but before we say goodbye, we should also meet our brothers in advance.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure in green robe standing with his hands behind his back suddenly appeared in front of Su Bing'er.
His face is ordinary, but he has an indescribable perseverance and chic temperament.
This person is Wei Tu who is in seclusion in a secret room.
After Tao Zhongjing's "accidental elixir formation" last time, he became more concerned about his "relatives" and paid attention to everyone's progress in cultivation.
Su Binger is naturally one of them.
Leaving aside the subtle feelings between this woman and him, Master Che Gongwei asked him to take more care of her before his death, so it was impossible for him to ignore this woman at will.
What's more, Su Bing'er has been living in the Divine Master's Mansion with Wei Yan and others. How could he, a Nascent Soul cultivator, be aware of her departure.
“Senior Brother Wei is an ascetic monk, and the time of his release from seclusion is unpredictable, so it’s hard for me to wait any longer.”
Su Binger hesitated for a moment and explained.
She is telling the truth.
Having lived in the Divine Master's Mansion for so many years, it can't be said that it was her. Even the concubine "Yan Xiaolan" that Wei Tu took in before has only seen Wei Tu a handful of times.
Therefore, it would be too slow to meet Wei Tu in person and then bid farewell to Wei Tu.
Weitu did not refute this statement.
He knows his own affairs.
Just now, what I said was just a reason for Su Bing'er to stay.
“These are some means of self-defense for my brother when he was in the Golden Core Realm, so I gave them to you.”
Weitu paused, took out a storage bag from his sleeve, and stuffed it into Su Bing'er's hand.
Huaying Dan is easier to obtain in the overseas world of immortality than in the Da Cang world, but this does not mean that this thing is not precious.
Relationship, there is a difference between closeness and distance.
It is normal to treat one more favorably than another.
He can spare no effort to obtain the "Huaying Dan" for Kou Hongying in the overseas cultivation world.
But...for Su Bing'er, he needed to think more about whether it was worth doing.
What's more, the "Huaying Dan" he gave Kou Hongying was obtained in exchange for three "Yinchen Stones".
At most, he gave Kou Hongying a certain amount of resource support. Of course, he is not that cruel, and he will not help Su Bing'er at all.
In addition to some necessary protective talismans, the storage bag he gave this woman also contained the "Instant Teleportation Array", a treasure that could evade the pursuit of ordinary Nascent Souls.
With this treasure, at least Su Binger is outside. If she is careful, her life will not be in danger.
“If you are out and find a treasure with the same value as the infant spiritual object, my brother can help you make a trip and exchange it for the infant transformation pill.”
Wei Tu pondered for a moment and then continued.
He couldn't help Su Bing'er, but he didn't mind. If she also tried hard, he would give her a try.
“Thank you, Senior Brother Wei.”
Hearing this, Su Bing'er's eyes lit up, and she immediately bowed her hands and expressed her gratitude.
After a few more brief words, the atmosphere between the two became a little more silent.
“Senior Brother Wei, after this farewell, I don’t know when I will be able to see you again…”
“I want to ask senior brother to agree to something. Is it possible?” Su Bing’er’s almond-shaped eyes rolled and she smiled.
"What's up?"
Weitu asked casually.
He knows Su Bing'er's character and knows that she is a very sensible person and will not make too harsh demands on him.
“Senior Brother Wei, please close your eyes.”
Su Binger said.
“Close your eyes?” Wei Tu was startled, a little unclear as to what he meant, but he still very obediently agreed to Su Binger’s request, which was not a request.
next moment.
Wei Tu closed his eyes and felt something cold and soft suddenly stick to his mouth without any warning, and then quickly left like a dragonfly touching water.
In this regard, Wei Tu could guess that these were Su Bing'er's lips even if he didn't use his spiritual consciousness and only used his own experience.
Just—
It is different from treating Yan Xiaolan.
This time, he did not respond or open his eyes, but ignored everything that happened.
Until... that man left the Divine Master's Mansion, left Hujie Immortal City, left Yingding Department, and disappeared again.
“This time, it’s still under the moon.”
Wei Tu opened his eyes, looked up at the crescent moon in the sky, and slowly shook his head.
Although he has a good impression of Su Bing'er, his good impression is not to the point where he is willing to marry her as a "Taoist couple".
And Su Bing'er is his junior sister, so it is impossible for her to become his concubine like monks like Yan Xiaolan.
That would be a slap in the face of the commander Che Gongwei.
So, he could only politely refuse this matter.
…
A few days later.
The news that the Cracking Eagle is about to break through the fourth level has also spread to the outside world.
As for this...the outside world’s response was mediocre.
The birth of a fourth-level demon can only affect the forces of Kang State near the Ying Ding tribe, but has no impact on the Yuanying sect such as Shengyashan.
What's more, both the righteous sect and the demonic sect are silently preparing for the secret realm of the King's Palace. How can they bother to pay attention to the appearance of a mere fourth-level monster.
Even if the owner of this fourth-level monster is Wei Tu.
Of course, the various forces in Kang still betrayed Wei Tu's face and sent envoys to the Ying Ding tribe with gifts, preparing to congratulate Wei Tu.
“I just don’t know whether the cracking sky sculpture is preparing to transform, or whether it will continue to choose the route of returning to its ancestors.”
Two years later, when Wei Tu sensed that the "demon baby" in the Sky-Splitting Diao's body was about to take shape, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
In the world of cultivating immortals, monsters and beasts are divided into four levels, namely heaven, earth, xuan, and yellow.
When they reach the heavenly level, that is, the fourth level, the monsters are called "celestial monsters" by the world, and they have the ability to transform into humans.
It’s just that not all monsters who have reached this level like to transform into “human beings”.
After all, monsters and beasts also have their own way of life, and it does not necessarily mean that everyone is a "monster" and envies the cultivation of human beings.
So, here we are.
Generally speaking, monsters will choose two promotion directions:
1. Incarnate as a human, possess human body meridians and acupuncture points, begin to learn human skills, and continue to practice along the lines of human monks, gradually abandoning the previous "demon body".
Two, purify your bloodline and choose to return to your ancestors.
More or less, monsters have some bloodline inherited from ancient true spirits in their bodies. It is undoubtedly a shortcut to choose to tap the true spirit bloodline in the body to improve their strength.
However, the disadvantage of this method is that after the baby is born, it will be difficult to transform into a human again, and it will remain in the state of an animal.
The birth of a baby, in a sense, is the second "rebirth" of human monks and monsters.
It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to "reshape the body" after missing the "rebirth period".
Of course, there is a less common third route.
That is to choose both "transformation" and "return to ancestors".
It's just that this route is mostly filled with "half-demon" monks.
Only they can continuously improve the purity of the "ancestral blood" in their bodies in the human state.
Wei Tu has seen in ancient books that the spiritual world also has corresponding differences between these monsters that choose different routes.
˜The "humanoid monsters" that choose the route of transformation are called monsters.
The "True Spirit Monsters" who choose to return to their ancestors are called the "True Spirit Clan".
“It seems to be an atavistic approach to animalization.”
A few days later, when Wei Tu saw that the "demon baby" in the Sky-Splitting Eagle's body had condensed into a mini-eagle, he immediately understood the Sky-Splitting Eagle's choice.
However, he was not surprised.
The "transformation" method seems to have many benefits for monsters, but in fact it is more suitable for monsters with higher intelligence.
Such as spiritual apes, spiritual foxes, etc.
Although the Sky Splitting Eagle's spiritual intelligence is not low, it would be too difficult for it to learn human skills after it transforms.
besides-
Wei Tu also learned about some of his ideas of "reciprocating love" by sensing the soul of the cracked sky sculpture.
Zi Diao does not intend to let his previous "replacement" investment go to waste.
Although the transformation route does not mean giving up the "monster body" immediately, it is not as easy for the monster beasts to improve their bloodline as it is to return to their ancestors.
“Monsters are less intelligent than humans, but they are more innocent in nature. Whoever treats them well will be loyal to them.”
Seeing this, Wei Tu couldn't help but look satisfied.
He had completely forgotten that when he was in the foundation-building realm, he left the hollow sculpture in the "Luoxueyuan" and starved for several years.
“After this breakthrough, the concentration of the true spirit bloodline has become higher. It is estimated that it will take another thirty years to transform into a “pure-blooded descendant”… which will shorten the time by a full sixty years.”
Wei Tu moved to the spirit beast room. He took a look at the "white crown and green body" of the cracked hollow sculpture at the moment, and began to use mana to check the concentration of the true spirit blood in its body.
Last time, after the blood exchange, he estimated that it would take at least a hundred years for the Sky-cracking Eagle to transform into a "pure-blooded descendant."
But after this breakthrough, he chose the "return to his ancestors" route, and the time was quickly compressed by more than half, leaving less than thirty years.
Thirty years, a blink of an eye.
Now, Wei Tu can already foresee the reappearance of Luqiu Jinyuan [Red Spirit Wing].
“Now that you are a fourth-order great demon, you should have a name.” Wei Tu touched the head of the cracked hollow sculpture and listened to its “chirping” cry. A trace of relief appeared on his face and he said with a smile.
The fourth-order great demon is an ordinary person at the Yuanying level, but to the outside world, he is a big boss that people look up to. He cannot always be called the "Splitting Sky Eagle" race.
“You have been following me for many years, and you are no different from my family members. You can also be regarded as a member of the Wei family. From now on, your surname is Wei with me..."
“As for the name…”
"You and I, master and servant, embark on the path of immortality all for the sake of immortality. Then, from now on, you will be called... Wei Changqing."
Wei Tu thought for a moment, then smiled slightly.
He had a selfish motive for giving this name, that is, to let the cracking Kongdiao "defend" the immortal path for him.
“唳! 唳!”
Hearing this name, the sky-splitting eagle's eyes lit up, and it immediately fluttered its wings and soared in the spirit beast room for a while.
Giving a monster a monster its own surname is a great recognition by monks of their spiritual pets in the world of immortality.
How could it not be extremely happy about this?
“Go!”
“Welcome the Thunder Tribulation of Transforming Infants.”
Shao Qing, after the Skycracking Eagle stopped flying and returned to its original position, Wei Tu took out a fourth-level defensive magic weapon from his sleeve, hung it on the Skycracking Eagle's neck, and said.
At this moment, as the Sky-Splitting Eagle's demon infants have successfully condensed, the last stage of the "Infant Transformation Thunder Tribulation" has also followed.
On the clouds, dark clouds pressed down, emitting tribulation thunder that was far more powerful than ordinary Yuanying Ningying.
Although this thunder disaster is not more severe than Fu Zhizhou's "blood thunder", it is not much different.
Weitu speculates that this should have a certain relationship with the "returning to the ancestors" route chosen by Cracking Sky Diao.
After all, there is no "soul-swallowing wood" in the Sky-Splitting Diao's body, nor does he kill too many people like the demon cultivator.
However, with his fourth-level defensive magic weapon, it is not difficult for the Sky-Splitting Eagle to survive the Thunder Tribulation of Infant Transformation.
