Chapter 85 If I were a Taoist

Chapter 85 If I were a Taoist
Wei Zhong watched Ling Ziwei break the formation for several days, then left and found an uninhabited place to enter the cave.

There was no way, Wei Zhong said he really couldn't understand it.

Ling Ziwei's current formation level is far beyond Wei Zhong's. It is difficult for Wei Zhong to gain anything from it with his first-level formation level.

With this little bit of skill, it is better to practice or study the formation inheritance on your own.

Inside the cave, Wei Zhong took out the strange ring that he had received from Wanyan Fu.

There was a fine crack on the dark golden ring, which was the damage caused by Wei Zhong's throwing technique.

Wei Zhong moved his fingertips slightly, and the ring flew up from his hand.

After taking this item from Wanyan Fu, Wei Zhong relied on his powerful Jindan consciousness to erase the mark of Wanyan Fu's consciousness engraved on it, and then imprinted his own mark of consciousness.

After refining this magic weapon, Wei Zhong knew that it was called the Soul Control Ring. It was a special magic weapon that could forcibly restrain monsters. Moreover, this Soul Control Ring seemed to be extraordinary among the same type of magic weapons.

This has to do with the fine blood threads on it, and the blood-red single eye formed by the blood threads.

In fact, this is not an eye, but a special shape formed by a pool of blood.

Wei Zhong guessed that this drop of blood most likely came from a high-level monster, although he was not sure what level it was.

But whenever Wei Zhong activated this magical weapon, Jin Mei would stay away from it, as if she was in awe of this small ring.

When more spiritual power is injected, it will stimulate the drop of blood on it, causing a cloud of blood mist to spread.

If one were to encounter a third-level monster like the Golden Eyebrow, his own strength would be reduced by at least nine levels, making him extremely weak.

Even if a second-level monster faced Jinmei at this time, it would be able to defeat it, not to mention the foundation-building cultivator who had more means.

"It's a treasure. Wanyan Fu wanted to use this magic weapon to subdue Jinmei. It turns out that he had some confidence in this."

As for the other party saying that this item was given by his master, Taoist Ruowu, Wei Zhong didn't care so much.

"There's no reason to throw away the treasure in your hands."

Of course, the main reason is that the Soul Control Ring did not leave any mark on it by the Nascent Soul cultivator.

There was no need to worry about being located by an expert who could find him, so Wei Zhong felt at ease taking the item.

Playing with the ring in his hand, Wei Zhong looked at the cracks on it, thinking about getting some spiritual materials to repair it later.

Although the power of this magical weapon will not be greatly affected after being damaged, subsequent use may make the damage worse and it needs to be repaired.

After putting away the Yuling Ring, Wei Zhong left the cave to check on Ling Ziwei's cracking progress.

As Wei Zhong expected, Ling Ziwei spent a month but still failed to break the formation.

After saying goodbye to Ling Hua, Wei Zhong went to Yuelan City. Wei Zhong had not forgotten during these days that there was a spiritual silk transaction waiting for him.

Arriving at the gathering place of the monks where the teleportation array was located, Wei Zhong vaguely heard monks talking in the nearby pavilions:

"I don't know what happened to Wanyan Fu. He came here in a miserable state a few days ago. I looked at him curiously and almost provoked him to attack me..."

"I saw it too. He looked so miserable. Could it be that he encountered a Jindan cultivator or a third-level monster in the secret realm..."

"Who knows? But it's good that he's injured. I was worried that he would come to attack me when I advance to the late stage of foundation building next month."

"Haha, Brother Luo, with your mediocre skills, why would Wanyan Fu challenge you to a duel? The opponent he is challenging is definitely not an unknown person!"

Wei Zhong heard the cultivators whispering, and walked forward curiously and asked:

"I wonder where the genius named Wanyan Fu went after he was injured?"

Several casual cultivators shook their heads: "I only saw him leave the secret realm, but who knows where he went next?"

"What a pity! I still want to see his handsome face and get to know him better..."

Wei Zhong chatted for a few words, then left the secret realm and headed towards Yuelan City.

After entering Yunji Tower, the maid who was injured by Wanyan Fu last time came up to them immediately.

"Senior Wei, the shopkeeper has instructed that if you come, just take you upstairs. Please follow me."

Wei Zhong followed her and came to the inner room on the second floor.

Xu Xuan was sitting at the tea table drinking tea.

Seeing this scene, Wei Zhong joked: "I really envy Daoist Fellow Xu Xuan's leisurely life."

Xu Xuan laughed: "If Fellow Daoist Wei can put aside the cultivation like I have, you can come to Yunji Tower and enjoy your old age like me."

Wei Zhong shook his head, gave a bitter smile, and sat down opposite him. Xu Xuan then said:

"Fellow Daoist Wei, do you know that a big thing happened recently?"

"Oh? I am so obsessed with cultivation that I really don't know. Can Daoist Fellow Xu Xuan tell me something?"

"Hehe, the true disciple of the Shadow Moon Sect, Wanyan Fu, was recently ambushed by a Jindan demon cultivator."

Wei Zhong looked surprised.

"I'm not pretending to be a demon cultivator. Is there some secret that I don't know?"

Xu Xuan saw Wei Zhong's surprised expression and realized that Wei Zhong was not involved in this matter:
"Not many people know about this right now. Even in my Yunji Chamber of Commerce, you need contribution points to buy this information."

"Fellow Daoist Xu Xuan, are you willing to tell me this news?"

"Haha, it's just a few small contribution points. Daoist Fellow Wei has spent these years. This news can be regarded as a gift to Daoist Fellow."

After pouring a cup of spiritual tea for Wei Zhong, the other party continued:

“The cause of this incident was that Wanyan Fu was seriously injured in the Dongting Secret Realm.

It is said that the other party encountered a mysterious Jindan cultivator, and for some unknown reason, they had a conflict with each other.

Anyway, after a fierce fight, Wanyan Fu was completely defeated and fled with serious injuries.

Just when he was about to leave in front of the crowd of cultivators and was planning to return to Yunzhou City, a Jindan demon cultivator suddenly showed up on the way.

When the other party learned that Wanyan Fu was seriously injured, they ambushed him in the place he had to pass.

Then he suddenly attacked, and almost killed the seriously injured Wanyan Fu with one blow.

But it was this tiny difference that gave Wanyan Fu the opportunity to turn the tables.

He summoned the sword of protection that Senior Ruowu had made for him.

The command arrow copied a sword technique of Senior Ruo Wu, which was incredibly powerful.

This sword directly killed the ambushing demon cultivator on the spot.

After dealing with this man, Wanyan Fu continued to flee, and finally returned safely to the territory of Yunzhou City, inside the mountain gate of the Shadow Moon Sect. "

"After this incident, the usually arrogant Wanyan Fu instantly became a joke, and many sect disciples came out to add insult to injury and mocked him.

Wanyan Fu was very angry.

However, these people are all the younger generation of the Nascent Soul force at the same level as the Shadow Moon Sect, and the sect is unable to vent their anger on them.

Wanyan Fu himself was seriously injured and could not refute his face with his fists. He could only threaten and ask his peers to wait and he would visit them one by one in the future.

He also claimed that he would teach the Jindan cultivator who had seriously injured him in the Dongting Secret Realm a lesson.

After the elixir is formed, I will definitely return to Luohe Prefecture to look for this person.

Take its head and congratulate it on its formation of the elixir."

After hearing Xu Xuan's description, Wei Zhong was not worried at all, but felt relieved instead.

What he had not expected in this incident was that after being seriously injured by him, the other party actually encountered a Jindan demon cultivator.

"I almost became an accomplice of the evil cultivator?"

Although Wei Zhong and Wanyan Fu did not get along, he just wanted to teach him a lesson so that he would not affect him again. But he never thought about killing him.

'When I fought him before, I only used a few spells like throwing and didn't use my own life magic weapon.'

The use of the Soul-Shocking Thorn was just to seize the Imperial Spirit Ring.

If Wei Zhong really wanted to kill the other party, he would have used the Multiple Time Dao Magic to kill the other party instantly, and would not have wasted words with him.

However, when Wei Zhong heard that the other party had hidden a sword that could record the attack of a Nascent Soul cultivator, he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Fortunately, I didn't intend to kill him at the beginning. Otherwise, if this move was aimed at me, how would I defend against it?"

Even if he used the [Taoism of Time] to raise his cultivation to the late Jindan stage, he would probably still be seriously injured by it.

'It's OK, it's OK.'

"Sure enough, I shouldn't have provoked these true disciples of the Nascent Soul forces before my strength was weakened."

Not to mention that the other party is the disciple of a Nascent Soul cultivator, which makes the risk even higher.

'The only thing that makes me feel fortunate is that the result after my action was in line with my expectations. The other party will not come to Luohe Mansion again in the short term to hinder the formation of the Dan between me and Ling Ziwei.'

By the time the other party forms the elixir, it will be too late to tell when.

After such a serious injury, it will take at least a year of recuperation. Wei Zhong might have already formed a pill during this period of time.

As for what the other party said about coming back to cause trouble for the mysterious Jindan after forming the Dan, Wei Zhong didn't take it seriously.

The other party doesn’t know his true identity. Where can he find him in such a vast sea of ​​people?
The only thing that needs to be noted is that Wei Zhong has to hide the flying throwing technique. Although this technique is an ordinary first-level technique, it is rare to practice it to the level of Wei Zhong.

It is almost as good as the skilled third-order spells used by Jindan monks and is very recognizable.

In addition, Jin Mei also needs to hide in the cave for a long time and cannot show up outside, so as to avoid being found by the other party by following clues.

After Xu Xuan finished speaking, Wei Zhong sighed:
“I can only say that Wanyan Fu got what he deserved. He insisted on fighting and injured so many of my Luohe Prefecture’s late foundation building cultivators who had hopes of advancing to the Jindan stage. He really deserved it.”

As he spoke, Wei Zhong was still somewhat angry.

"Alas, Brother Wei, please just say this to me, and don't tell anyone else.

If Wanyan Fu heard this, there would be trouble.

Although he is not here, there are many people in my Luohe Mansion who want to flatter him. He has the talent of earth spirit roots and is a Nascent Soul disciple. He is of great importance!"

"Isn't this just a bit of resentment? I'm just showing off my eloquence. I know my limits."

The two chatted for a while, and Wei Zhong asked, "When will the Taoist friend with the spiritual silk arrive?"

"That fellow Daoist said he would come at 3 p.m., why don't you wait a little longer, Daoist Wei?"

······
Far away in Yunzhou City, inside a hall at the mountain gate of Shadow Moon Sect.

Wanyan Fu was kneeling on the cushion and bowing his head heavily.

In front of him was Taoist Ruowu, who was holding a chicken leg and calmly stuffing it into his mouth.

The other person had disheveled hair, one hand holding a chicken leg and the other holding a jar of wine, drinking and eating meat without caring about his image.

Who could have imagined that Taoist Ruowu, a Nascent Soul cultivator, would be like this.

"The meat of this Spirit Feather Chicken is so fragrant. And this Yulinqing, although it is a first-grade spiritual wine with mediocre spiritual energy, the taste is really unique. I wonder which genius invented it."

He just drank and ate meat, paying no attention to Wanyan Fu who was kneeling below him.

When only bones were left of the chicken leg and the spirit wine was finished, he used his spiritual energy to wipe off the grease on his hands, took out a wooden toothpick, and began to pick at his teeth.

This habit of picking teeth was formed since he was just a cook, before he started practicing cultivation. It has not changed even now that he has become a Nascent Soul cultivator who suppresses a sect.

"Fu'er, why are you kowtowing like this? It is impossible for me, your master, to stop the people from talking nonsense.

Just let them say what they want, and you can recover from your injuries and fight back later, right?"

Despite all the persuasion, Wanyan Fu never raised his head:
“Although I am angry about those people’s nonsense, I won’t ask Master to end his life with his Nascent Soul cultivation level.

I just want to ask Master for another sword so I can go to Luohe Prefecture and kill the Jindan who hurt me."

That’s right, Wanyan Fu had no intention of waiting until he reached Dan stage to settle the grudge, but instead wanted to borrow his master’s sword to quickly return to Luohe Mansion, find that person and kill him.

"Ugh!"

Wakawu sighed:

"It's just a small pill, why do you have to keep pestering him?

I've already told you that your master doesn't eat that human-shaped monkey, why did you catch it?
Moreover, Master's sword is quite difficult to make. It will take about five years, no, at least ten years."

Wanyan Fu was stunned and looked bitter. This master was good in every way except that he loved to play tricks on his disciples.

It's obvious that it won't take up much of the other party's time, but he asked for five years, and then immediately changed it to ten years. Isn't it clear that he doesn't agree with my revenge at this moment?

With a swish, the palace door was pushed open by a strong man.

The other person was wearing a yellow short shirt and under his sleeves were forearms as thick as fine iron.

This man's name is Tao Ming, and he is my number one disciple.

Tao Ming walked to Wanyan Fu's side, bowed and saluted to Ruo Wu above him:
"Meet the Master!"

"Hey, Ming'er is back," he then said to Wanyan Fu, "Fu'er, why don't you ask your senior brother to help you get your place back?"

Before Wanyan Fu could say anything, he heard Tao Ming's voice:
“I don’t have such a cowardly junior brother. Not only was he defeated by a unknown Jindan master, but he was also ambushed by a demon cultivator on his way back. If it weren’t for Master’s sword protecting him, he would have definitely lost his life.

Now you want me to stand up for you, you are just a waste."

When Wanyan Fu heard this, he was immediately filled with anger, but before he could react, Tao Ming slapped him on the head to the ground.

Wanyan Fu pulled his head out of the stone slab and said angrily:

"Tao Ming, you..."

Seeing that the two brothers were about to kill each other again, Ruowu had to step in to stop them:

"Hey, hey, hey, brothers, please talk it out nicely. Don't use violence. Especially you, Fu'er, whose injuries are still not healed. Don't add new injuries to your old ones at the hands of your senior brother."

Wanyan Fu was filled with resentment, but he couldn't show it.

I knew that if Master Ruowu said the truth, this burly man in front of me, who was my senior brother, would really hurt me seriously.

Since I became his master's apprentice, my status has changed and I am respected.

But there are still two people who can teach me a lesson. The first is my master Ruo Wu, and the second is my senior brother Tao Ming.

Although he has an earth-grade fire spiritual root and is favored by his master, Tao Ming is no worse, having an earth-grade gold spiritual root.

His aptitude is almost the same as his own, but his spiritual root attributes are more suitable for practicing the master's swordsmanship.

Therefore, his strength has always been superior to mine.

The terrible thing is that the opponent is strong, and just as aggressive as I am.

He challenged all his fellow disciples in the sect, and he especially loved to fight with himself as his fellow disciple.

My own cultivation career can be said to have been beaten all the way by him.

To this day, Wanyan Fu is still unclear whether he is aggressive by nature or has been infected by the other party.

Wanyan Fu thought hard for a moment and then stopped talking.

He was afraid that Tao Ming would beat him up if he said one more word.

"Master, I want to go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range to explore?" Tao Ming bowed and said.

If I were stunned:
"Why are you going to a place like that? The monsters there are not easy to deal with. Even if you have reached the Dan stage now, you may not be able to escape from the monsters unscathed."

"Jiedan, what is Jiedan?" Wanyan Fu was stunned.

"Haha, Fu'er, your senior brother found an opportunity in the Western Desert, and he achieved the Jindan after a few years of training."

Wanyan Fu was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

Tao Ming said: "Sure enough, I couldn't escape the Master's eyes. I did find an opportunity in the Western Desert and then I formed a pill.

I am returning to inform my master and plan to go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range."

Wakawu shook his head and said:

“Even if you have achieved Dan formation now, the depths of the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range are still very dangerous for you. You can’t guarantee that those demon kings will be shameless and attack you.

Instead of going to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, it is better to go to the Wu Shi Gate opposite.

I heard that a new saint has appeared in the other sect, with the blood of a true demon.

If you want to challenge a stronger opponent, why not go find him?

Although the demon cultivators' brains are not very good, as long as you follow the rules and challenge them in a serious manner, they will not do anything to bully the weak."

"Holy Son? Aren't there a lot of people like this in the Demon Sect?" Tao Ming wondered.

Wakago dropped the toothpick in his hand and spat:

“This time it’s a little different, the opponent’s True Demon bloodline seems to be somewhat special, and he was personally accepted as a disciple by that old man Cangming.

After being promoted to a Jindan cultivator a few years ago, he swept away the demon cultivators of the same generation in a short period of time and became quite famous among the demon sects.

You can go and find out what it is on your behalf. Besides, if I were your disciple, I wouldn’t necessarily be worse than that old Cangming’s disciple.”

After hearing this, Tao Ming understood that this battle involved a dispute between masters and was not something he could easily refuse.

"Besides, isn't it what you desire to fight against a powerful opponent?"

Tao Ming knelt on one knee, cupped his hands into fists, bowed his head and said, "I respect Master's orders."
