Chapter 590 Baizhi’s Choice, a Visitor From Another World (4k Subscription Required)
She could understand what Wei Tu meant and knew that Wei Tu meant what he said, rather than because he had an urgent need to control her and not let her go free.
Now, after waking up, the most urgent issue for her is her longevity.
Two hundred years is too long...
She doesn't have much life left.
But if she switches from being a ghost cultivator to being a "weapon spirit" of the "Soul Refining Flag", her lifespan can be extended again.
This is indeed a great way to extend your life.
However, the premise is - don’t fail!
It is not an easy task to steal the "Eternal Life Fruit" as a "weapon spirit".
Many monks have already walked this path.
Historically, only a handful of people have succeeded and extended their lives through the use of weapon spirits.
But...after success, it only prolongs life.
As time goes by, the "soul" of the weapon spirit will still exist, but the monk's thoughts hidden there will slowly age until a new "death" is formed.
Therefore, the tool spirit only treats the symptoms but not the root cause, and cannot truly make the monks live forever.
She chose the path of ghost cultivating back then because if the ghost cultivator went further, she would have the opportunity to transform into a yang again and become an immortal.
Although this hope is slim, there is a glimmer of hope.
It won't be a dead end.
But Qi Ling Yi Tu is... not at all.
…
Thinking about it for a long time.
Bai Zhi finally made a decision.
She looked at Wei Tu and bowed down, "My life will eventually end. I am willing to be reincarnated as a human being. Even if... I only have a few decades to live, I will have no regrets."
For hundreds of years, she had forgotten what it felt like to have flesh and blood.
Instead of coveting the "immortal" longevity, it would be better to reincarnate as a human now and die happily.
However, when she said this, Bai Zhi's voice was trembling. She was worried that Wei Tu would be angry about this. After all, her actions were all for herself and she did not take into account Wei Tu, her "master".
So these words were more like a request than a choice.
"Reincarnated as a human?"
Wei Tu was a little surprised when he heard this answer.
In his memory, Bai Zhi was more greedy for life and afraid of death, otherwise she would not have voluntarily signed the soul contract and recognized him as her master.
Nowadays, he is quite surprised that he gave up his only "life path".
"After we leave the royal palace, I will start arranging for you to take over your body." Wei Tu nodded slightly and agreed, without any trace of displeasure on his face.
He rescued Bai Zhi and allowed her to "resurrect" from the demon soul. It's not for any utilitarian purpose, it's just a matter of convenience.
Similarly, when he asked Bai Zhi to be the main soul of the Soul Refining Banner... he just gave Bai Zhi a way to extend his life.
Since Bai Zhi didn't want to, he naturally wouldn't force it.
In addition to asking Bai Zhi to be the weapon spirit of the "Soul Refining Flag", he also knew another way to help Bai Zhi overcome the longevity crisis and continue practicing.
That is to use the Wan Yin Sect's valuable treasure "Tian Gui Seed" to make this girl become a member of the Tian Gui clan.
However, the ownership of the "Heavenly Ghost Seed" belongs to the Red Dragon Ancestor. He cannot and will not force the Red Dragon Ancestor to hand over this treasure for Bai Zhi alone.
After all, in addition to being the master he worshiped, Patriarch Chilong was also Wang Sutai's biological father, his Lao Taishan.
Now, being able to save Bai Zhi and give her this choice made him think about his old love.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Wei."
When Bai Zhi heard this, her pink face was slightly moved, and she stood up and bowed to Wei Tu again.
…
After Bai Zhi regained consciousness, Wei Tu no longer had any reason to stay in Yuanyang Palace.
He put Angelica dahurica into his other sleeve, then with a flash of light, he rushed towards the "Three Core Palaces" in the inner hall area.
These three core palaces are the real core of the secret realm of Zunwang Palace.
Unlike other places.
There will be a new batch of "treasures" in the three core palaces every six hundred years, seemingly endlessly.
Moreover, no monk has ever really opened the "main palace room" in the third palace.
"Zhu Laomo, can the "Demon Locking Hall" you mentioned really be opened by my "Yuanzhong Divine Light"?"
Wei Tu asked while flying away.
More than two hundred years ago, when he first met the Red Dragon Ancestor and imprisoned the Red Dragon Ancestor's remnant soul with the "Yuan Zhong Divine Light"... he clearly saw that the Red Dragon Ancestor saw him. The excitement after this magical power.
At that time, he was suspicious of this, but because he had just come into contact with the Red Dragon Ancestor, he did not mention it more, but pretended not to know.
However, after he married Wang Sutai decades ago, the Chilong Ancestor told him the secret of the magical power "Yuanzhong Divine Light".
Yuan Zhong Divine Light, although this magical power is extremely famous in the world of immortality, there are also many magical powers that can compete with it.
What really matters to Ancestor Chilong is that the "Yuanzhong Divine Light" can unlock the restrictions of one of the "Three Core Palaces" of the secret realm of Zunwang Palace - the Locking Demon Hall.
Although the Suomo Hall is far less attractive among the three core palaces than the two palaces of "Chuanfa Pavilion" and "Yelong Palace", the treasures hidden in its "main palace" are no less than The other two palaces.
"Ancestor and I have entered the secret realm of Zunwang Palace. We have long been familiar with the restrictions inside. How could I lie to you?"
"The restriction in Suo Mo Hall is called "Ziwu Qi Forbidden", which is one of the ten major divine restrictions in the world of cultivating immortals. This restriction is extremely strange, and it is difficult to break even in the realm of transformation into gods, but... if there is interference from Yuan Zhong's divine light If so, it’s not worth mentioning.”
"In a sense, Yuan Zhong Divine Light can be regarded as the nemesis of Ziwu Qijin."
"It's just that, ancestor, I didn't expect that you could actually cultivate the Yuanzhong Divine Light. Obviously, your physique is not a spiritual body that can cultivate this magical power..."
The Red Dragon Ancestor said in amazement.
Most of the high-level magical powers in the world of immortal cultivation are not cultivated by cultivators if they want to. Even if they have a high level of understanding, it is not possible.
The Yuanzhong Divine Light is one of these high-level magical powers.
According to common sense, it must have a corresponding spiritual body, and then after hundreds of years of practice, it is possible to condense this magical power.
Otherwise, the "Ziwu Qiban" of the "Locking Demon Hall" would have been opened long ago. After all, the cultivators who covet this palace are all amazing talents of both the righteous and the evil.
And Wei Tu, without exception, broke this common practice.
"It was just an adventure back then."
Wei Tu smiled when he heard this, avoiding the main point.
With the fate of "late bloomer", he has no threshold for practicing any skills or any magical power. As long as he persists, he will gain something.
This point, of course, will not be told to others.
And there is no rumor about the rare treasure like the Golden Purple Fate in the world of immortal cultivation, so he is not worried that the Red Dragon Ancestor will guess it.
After all, there are many special people in the world of immortal cultivation, and he is not the only one. His aptitude of practicing techniques and magical powers at will, in a sense, is also a special spirit.
Seeing that Wei Tu did not want to talk more, the Red Dragon Ancestor did not continue to ask, after all, cultivators at the level of Yuanying have more or less some secrets and opportunities of their own.
Now, he and Wei Tu are tied together in interests, and they are also father-in-law and son-in-law, so there is no need to test them more.
"It's just... although the Yuanzhong Divine Light can break the Ziwu Qiban, it is not easy to enter the Locking Demon Hall. All the cultivators gather in the three palaces, and once you and I make a small move, they will immediately find it."
The Red Dragon Ancestor got to the point and analyzed the current situation for Wei Tu.
As soon as the voice fell.
Wei Tu's face also showed a cautious look.
Two fists cannot beat four hands.
What's more, they are a group of late Nascent Soul masters.
He also knows his own weight.
"Act according to circumstances first. If it doesn't work, come back to the Locking Demon Hall after 600 years."
Wei Tu pondered for a moment and said this mature words.
He is only over 600 years old now, and his life span is still very long, so he is not short of time.
600 years later, the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace will be opened again, and he will not be the "weak posture" at this moment.
Maybe he will enter directly in the realm of transformation.
However, at this moment, Wei Tu suddenly noticed that the residual soul of the Red Dragon Ancestor suddenly hid in the Dragon Glass Pearl, motionless, in a state of extremely restrained breath.
Seeing this scene, Wei Tu's mind moved, and his consciousness looked around, and soon he saw a monk wearing golden armor and a helmet, dressed like an ordinary general, passing by him quickly, and his destination was also the "core three palaces".
"Priest Sang?" Wei Tu raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at the back of the golden armor general whose origin was a mystery.
Back then, it was Priest Sang who beat the Red Dragon Patriarch so hard that his Nascent Soul left his body and he almost lost his soul.
Now, it is normal for the Red Dragon Patriarch to be afraid of this person. After all, he could not beat this person in his prime, let alone his current state of residual soul.
However, there is one thing that Wei Tu is a little puzzled about.
He does not remember that he had seen this "Priest Sang" in the hall before the opening of the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace.
If this person is late, he is too late for a long time.
You know, he has been in the Yuanyang Treasure Land for two full months.
But before Wei Tu could think about the reason, the Red Dragon Patriarch who was hiding in the Dragon Glass Pearl suddenly showed excitement on his face.
"This ancestor finally understands, finally understands the reason why Priest Sang is chasing me!"
The Red Dragon Patriarch laughed loudly.
Hearing this, Wei Tu was stunned and asked for the specific reason.
He originally thought that Priest Sang was hunting down the Red Dragon Ancestor to steal treasures or kill people for revenge, but now it seems that there is a secret behind this that he doesn't know.
"Friend Wei, you should have noticed just now that Priest Sang came too late."
"According to common sense, he should have rushed to the core three palaces as soon as possible like those late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, but... he was two months late."
The Red Dragon Ancestor said slowly.
"Why is he late?" Hearing this, Wei Tu's face showed a thoughtful look.
There are very few strong people in the world of cultivation who lack a sense of time.
Not to mention being late when entering the important secret realm of the Zunwang Palace.
"You mean..."
"Priest Sang, have you been late before?"
Wei Tu quickly grasped the key point.
"That's right!" The Red Dragon Patriarch confirmed Wei Tu's guess. He nodded and said, "Before, I was still wondering, I didn't provoke him, and I didn't get any treasures in the secret realm, why did he hold on to me and want to kill me."
"Now, this ancestor understands! It's because I saw it like you 1,200 years ago... He was late when he came to the secret realm of the Zunwang Palace!"
The voice fell.
Wei Tu's face first showed a look of astonishment, and then turned into a thoughtful look.
After the Red Dragon Patriarch reminded him, it was not difficult for him to see that the "lateness" of the priest Sang should be related to his important secrets.
"Could it be..."
Shaoqing, Wei Tu had a guess in his heart. He looked at the Chilong Ancestor and frowned: "Is it possible that this Priest Sang is not a monk from the Da Cang Immortal Realm, or even... not a monk from this world? Because of the space shuttle, he missed the time?"
If it weren't for this reason, it would be hard for him to think of why Priest Sang was "late" every time.
Ancestor Chilong expressed his affirmation to this speculation.
"Then why doesn't this person attack me?"
Wei Tu was confused.
Hearing this, the Chilong Ancestor smiled and said: "Normally speaking, a Yuanying monk can only enter the secret realm of the Supreme King's Palace three times in his life. This is your first time to enter the secret realm of the Supreme King's Palace. See He was late... If I hadn't reminded him, would you have thought that he was a visitor from another world?"
"Maybe there are reasons that you and I can't think of that restrain him from taking action against you."
"Of course, it is also possible that I guessed wrong. This person was chasing me for other reasons. It was not the idea of a visitor from another world."
The Chilong Patriarch paused and then spoke.
Cross-border teleportation is not unimaginable in the world of immortality. However, at the Nascent Soul level, examples of this phenomenon are still too rare.
Therefore, although he had some guesses, he did not dare to be too certain.
However--
At this moment, Ancestor Chilong heard Wei Tu’s reply.
"Zhu Laomo, since he is your enemy and he may take action against me, then... just kill him and search for his soul? Why bother thinking so much?"
Hearing this, the old ancestor Chilong was stunned for a moment, and then he felt relieved.
If anyone else had said this, he would have just taken it as a lie, but Wei Tu was different. Ancestor Chilong firmly believed that Wei Tu would one day kill "Priest Sang" and avenge himself.
Without it, Wei Tu is now stronger than he was at the same time, with higher potential. If he has proof, he will become a god.
In addition, he had fought against Priest Sang before and did not think that he was an invincible figure.
"Decades ago, I made the right move to allocate Xiao Qixu to Wei Tu..."
The ancestor of the Red Dragon secretly thought to himself, feeling extremely satisfied with his decision to "sell his daughter for glory".
…
A few days later.
Wei Tu successfully reached the "Three Core Palaces".
He didn't think much and went to the "Magic Locking Hall" on the far left first.
Similar to Yuanyang Palace, the "Suo Mo Hall" is also a large palace complex. Except for the outermost palace, which is forbidden to be open, the innermost palace room is wrapped by a layer of red and black light mask, which is tightly covered. Strictly.
In these open palaces, there are seven or eight Nascent Soul monks, who are constantly using various magical powers to bombard the "objects" in these palaces.
Each of these artifacts looks ordinary, but upon closer inspection, they are all above the fourth level and are rare treasures.
Moreover, some fresh fruits on the fruit plate on the table also exude a refreshing elixir scent.
