Chapter 608 Turning one's hand to make clouds, turning it back to make rain
Since his primordial spirit transformed into a one-patterned star god, Wang Yu's divine sense has exceeded the cognitive limits of a Nascent Soul cultivator, after all, he himself has extraordinary attainments in the path of refining the spirit.
A single-patterned Star God is comparable to a peak Nascent Soul cultivator.
With the two combined, plus the profound Dao principles of the Taiyin Main Soul, Wang Yu's Illusionary Moon Pupil Technique, performed using the Taiyin Nether Pupil, had reached the point where it could alter memories without the other party noticing.
This even involves a small-scale utilization of the principles of Taiyin.
Wang Yu called it Illusory Moon·Knowledge Barrier!
He is invincible against those whose spiritual sense is inferior to his, and he is equally difficult to detect those whose realm is higher than his, unless they have comprehended the Dao.
If it only affects some trivial matters, like a hidden thread running through the grass, it is easy to ignore and no one will notice anything unusual.
therefore.
Wang Yu did not change his own appearance, but made slight alterations to the portrait of the ancestor hanging in the ancestral hall that Wei Shuyue and Elder Fu remembered.
In the field.
The scene of the grandfather and grandson recognizing each other is something that viewers eagerly anticipate.
Wei Shuyue explained the current situation of the Wei family in one breath, and also pointed out the speculation that Yunwu Mountain Xiazun behind Zixia Sect might be secretly instructing them.
Brilliant!
This was exactly the point he wanted to insert himself into. A thousand years ago, the ancestor of the Wei clan obtained an opportunity for his path of cultivation and temporarily left the Mountain and Sea Realm. A thousand years later, he returned to find everything changed. Seeing his descendants being bullied by their fellow cultivators, he was furious and stormed up Cloud Mist Mountain.
As a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator who has returned from the Otherworld, he has every reason to demand a spot in the Ascension Passage and to rightfully go to the Lesser Extreme Palace.
Furthermore, he possessed the recklessness of a novice and a lack of understanding of the current situation, so it was only natural that he did not know that Xia Zun was the Daoist partner of Jueqing Laozu.
With a suitable script in mind, Wang Yu immediately revealed a gentle smile and lovingly patted Wei Shuyue's head.
"Child, you've suffered. Now that the Ancestor has returned, this mere Zixia Sect and this mere Xia Zun will be taught what a thousand-year-old family truly is."
Wei Shuyue was initially delighted, but then felt somewhat bewildered.
The Wei family once had an ancestor who was a Nascent Soul cultivator. According to the family genealogy, his son Wei Guangde achieved the Golden Core stage and inherited the ancestor's relics. He was able to fight against a Pseudo-Nascent Soul cultivator, so he could be considered a half-Nascent Soul family.
Unfortunately, each generation was worse than the last. The ancestor passed away quietly, and this second-generation family also failed to live out their natural lifespan, dying in a struggle with others.
Five hundred years ago, their entire clan was almost wiped out.
Fortunately, in her generation, her father stepped forward and, with his late-stage Core Formation cultivation, restored the Wei family to its former glory. The products of the Five Elements Corpse Workshop became bestsellers in several surrounding states.
There were signs of a resurgence, but then a traitor, Fang Long, emerged.
This person was originally a beggar in a place where ordinary people lived.
However, she possessed the Earth Element Heavenly Spirit Root and was valued by her father, who adopted her from a young age and planned to groom her as the son-in-law of the Wei family, so that she could assist Wei Shuyue in taking charge of the family in the future.
Wang Yu had seen this information in Elder Fu's memories, but it was different when Wei Shuyue dictated it.
"They're here."
Wang Yu's voice surprised and delighted Wei Shuyue and the others. From afar, they could see a group of people riding six-winged unicorns and arriving together.
All of these beasts had reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Among them, Fang Long, who was in the early stage of Core Formation, was the leader, along with several Core Formation elders from the Zixia Sect. The strongest of them was a green-haired old woman who had reached the peak of Core Formation.
The group stopped a hundred meters away and dared not go any further.
Further in, one enters the core of the scorching land, where even Core Formation cultivators cannot withstand the intense heat, as they do not possess a flawed spiritual treasure like the Black Emperor's Water Control Flag.
Fang Long stood tall and proud, staring at Wei Shuyue with a ferocious expression.
"Hahaha, you wretched woman, where can you run to now? You should know that the sky over Yunzhou is always shrouded in mist and fog. You dare to collude with the drought demon. You really value money over your life."
Wei Shuyue's mind stabilized considerably, thanks to Wang Yu's support.
It's no wonder these chickens and dogs are no match for them.
"Oh? Fang Long, do you remember who this is?"
Having cultivated himself in the Wei family for many years, he had naturally visited the ancestral hall. Gazing at Wang Yu's face from afar, he was momentarily dazed, and cold sweat instantly covered his back.
The green-haired old woman from the Zixia Sect asked a question.
"Young friend Fang, who is that person? Do you know him?"
Fang Long trembled as he grabbed the reins of the six-winged unicorn and said, word by word, "Wei Wuxian, the ancestor of the Wei clan, was a Nascent Soul cultivator from a thousand years ago. But... he should have died long ago."
The green-haired old woman was no longer calm.
But when he thought that he was carrying out Xia Zun's will, he quickly mustered his spirits and forced himself to say, "Senior, there may be a misunderstanding behind this matter. My sect's patriarch will definitely come to apologize in a few days. Please forgive this junior's rudeness."
To appease them?
No!
This is a delaying tactic. If we can invite a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from Cloud Mist Mountain, this so-called Wei Clan Ancestor will be nothing more than a minor nuisance.
As the saying goes, those who understand the times are the heroes.
Wise people are not anxious about immediate gains or losses.
"Even ants cling to life, yet you're trying to fool fools? You're utterly absurd..."
Wang Yu's figure instantly appeared above Fang Long.
With one foot standing on his head, he was immobilized, and with his right hand in a claw shape, he gently pulled.
In an instant, three feet of black light emanated from the seven orifices of all the cultivators.
The soul was forcibly extracted.
The Spell to Search for Gods!
Even if there are restrictions or oaths in his mind, he can easily bypass them and obtain all the information he wants in just a few breaths.
After Wang Yu finished reading, he clenched his right hand.
Instead of a deafening explosion, the flesh and blood of the cultivators began to collapse inward, and in the blink of an eye, they formed dozens of palm-sized flesh and blood furnaces, some imprisoning Golden Core cultivators, and others encompassing the ninefold spiritual sea of Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Wang Yu opened his mouth and spat out a wisp of demonic flame nurtured by his natal spiritual treasure, which transformed into a sea of fire. He then refined the Blood Daoist Pill on the spot, all within a few breaths, or even less.
Under boundless power, what should be integrated will be integrated, and what should be burned will be burned.
It eventually transformed into a golden-red pill the size of a fingernail, radiating a rich aura of blood and spiritual power, with enough medicinal efficacy to nourish the nascent soul.
Wang Yu, however, flicked it into Wei Shuyue's arms.
He then channeled another portion of his magical power to help her cleanse her marrow and bones, opening up all her meridians, fully demonstrating the ancestor's compassion.
"Refine it, and you will definitely form your core within ten years."
"--yes!"
Wei Shuyue did not hesitate. The Wei family ran the Five Elements Corpse Workshop, which followed the path of demonic cultivation, and they were not afraid to take these "shortcut" quick-fix blood pills.
After all, with her aptitude, reaching the Core Formation stage would be considered a perfect display of her innate spiritual root's potential; the Nascent Soul stage? She had never even considered it.
Besides, would her own ancestor harm her?
Therefore.
Amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, Wei Shuyue consumed and refined the elixir, causing her aura to surge dramatically. In a short time, she advanced to a minor realm, and the momentum showed no signs of stopping.
This is the ancestor's method: refining pills in a single breath, and casually bestowing upon him opportunities that his subordinates wouldn't even dare to dream of.
They weren't fools; they tacitly guessed that... Ancestor Wuxian had probably already achieved the Nascent Soul stage!
As for the solution to Fang Long's case.
Wang Yu decided to let him go back and spread the news of the Wei clan's ancestor's return throughout Yunzhou, so that he could proceed with his next plan.
"Fang Long, right? Pass on a message to that person in Cloud Mist Mountain for me: When Grandpa Wei roamed the mountains and seas, she was just a Core Formation child."
Fang Long's expression twisted as he responded with difficulty.
"I... will certainly deliver it."
"roll!"
Having gained a chance to live, Fang Long dared not delay and quickly transformed into a beam of light, disappearing into the horizon.
For the Wei family, it was just a blink of an eye.
The crisis is over.
Wang Yu's ability to manipulate events at will was truly admirable, and no one dared to utter a single word about letting Fang Long, a particularly hated enemy, escape.
The ancestor has his own plans; they just need to cling to his coattails, what else is there to argue about?
"Elder Fu."
"This junior is here."
Being suddenly called out startled Elder Fu, who immediately knelt down and kowtowed to show his loyalty.
Wang Yu chuckled and said.
"No need for such formalities. You have rendered meritorious service in protecting my Wei family's bloodline, and I will reward and punish you accordingly. Just protect Shu Yue for a while, and I will be right back."
"This junior will certainly do my utmost."
Elder Fu could not hide his excitement. Could it be that... even someone like him who had exhausted his potential could have a way to help his cultivation level rise?
When I looked up again, Wang Yu had already disappeared.
...
The bottom of the red earth.
Lady Qingqing, as if watching a good show, squinted and sized her up, saying, "Fellow Daoist, should I call you Brother Wei, or continue to call you Brother Wang?"
Wang Yu waved his hand dismissively.
"It's just a name, it doesn't matter what I call it, but I'm sorry to have made Fellow Daoist Qingqing laugh at me."
"No, no, no, Fellow Daoist's thunderous methods have broadened Qingqing's horizons, and that alchemy skill is truly extraordinary, like the alchemy techniques of the demon race."
Wang Yu's current alchemy skills have reached the mid-grade of the fifth rank, and many of his exquisite alchemy techniques are based on the "Heavenly Demon Alchemy Technique"!
Therefore, what Qingqing said is indeed true.
It's clear that the other party has exceptional insight.
"This is but a minor skill, not comparable to Fellow Daoist Qingqing's divine power of natural disasters. Let's get back to the main matter."
"Fellow Daoist, please speak freely."
"Fellow Daoist Qingqing's suggestion was good, but I think it can be revised further."
"How to change it?"
"Since Xia Zun has dared to bully my Wei clan, wouldn't it be a sign that I'm afraid of her if I didn't teach her a lesson? I've been away from the mountains and seas for a thousand years and I need a suitable stepping stone."
Qingqing indeed showed a knowing look on her face.
During their previous conversation, he felt that Wang Yu was intentionally guiding her to reveal the latest information about the Mountain and Sea Realm, and now it seems that this makes sense.
But you can't respond like that.
"Just now, fellow Daoist said that you could help Qingqing resolve the grudge between Xia Zun. Aren't you afraid of offending Ancestor Jueqing if you make a move now? You might end up like me."
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Qingqing is too attached to appearances."
"If the circumstances are different, how can we attract more passengers? If we don't show enough strength, the exposure of the World-Opening Divine Ship will be a huge problem."
Wang Yu's confident demeanor was practically an open declaration that he would rise to power by stepping on Xia Zun and Jueqing Laozu. Qingqing knew she couldn't possibly be that confident.
After all, Xia Zun is easy to talk to.
Defeating or even killing is not difficult.
The difficulty lies in dealing with the Heartless Ancestor Li Chunyi, a true genius at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. He is the one who was specially left in charge of the Forgetfulness lineage in the lower realm, and will return to the lineage once he breaks through to the Void Refinement stage.
She waited a thousand years, for the other's path was boundless.
She doesn't intend to stay in the Lesser Palace forever. Anyway, the drought demon's lifespan is comparable to that of a true spirit. A thousand years is no different from a hundred years. The tactic of keeping an old man alive is particularly effective for her.
Such behavior easily invites disdain from the lineage behind the sect.
This move has both advantages and disadvantages.
She was born with the supreme treasure of the Dao, and concealing her talents would be more beneficial than harmful. Therefore, all the promises and plans she made to Wang Yu before were just castles in the air.
They just wanted to test this cultivator who suddenly appeared. They couldn't even see his background, so how could they talk about cooperation?
The fact that the other party was willing to directly confront the Heartless Ancestor for the sake of the Wei family made her think twice, and she believed that the other party was indeed from the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Wei Wuxian... Interesting!
"Then Qingqing will wait for the good news of Brother Wei's great prowess. We will meet again at Xiaoji Palace then, and Qingqing will help introduce you to those geniuses."
"Of course, of course!"
...
With this matter settled, Wang Yu needed to resolve the problem as soon as possible.
To solidify one's identity.
After all, apart from the true progenitor of the Wei clan, which Nascent Soul cultivator would fight against the Heartless Ancestor for the sake of some unrelated ant?
Leave the land of the drought demon at the bottom of the barren earth.
Situ Qiutian was also taken away by Wang Yu. He had a method planted in his body by Qing Qing, which could be used as a relay station for communication between the two, or as a henchman for the Wei family to help him deal with some ignorant fools.
in this way.
Wang Yu abducted Wei Shuyue and the others, transforming into a streak of aurora that traveled a thousand miles a day, returning to the so-called Five Elements Corpse Workshop in less than two days.
This place has a natural feng shui wonder, and after being modified by feng shui masters, it has become a superior place for raising corpses with a five-element cycle.
Unfortunately, it is located near the drought-stricken land.
The Five Elements Corpse-Nourishing Formation was broken, and it had no choice but to connect with the endless Yin Corpse Qi contained in the Red Land. Over time, it has transformed into a pure Fire-Element Corpse-Nourishing Ground.
While the surge in a single attribute brought considerable profits.
However, the mystery of this place has been greatly diminished, it has lost its natural power, and it has lost its potential to continue evolving, which is truly a pity.
but.
This proves that there is also a Feng Shui tradition in the Shan Hai Jie (山海界), but the level is very low and it was definitely not personally taught by the ancestor of Feng Shui masters. It can be seen that the origin of Feng Shui magic is not the ancestor of Feng Shui masters as he knows it.
It's at least some valuable intelligence.
The Five Elements Corpse Workshop covers an area of hundreds of miles.
There are five extinct volcanoes serving as a place for raising corpses. The rocks are rugged and there are few trees. The magnificent palaces and vermilion pavilions are scattered around. In addition, the roads and paths are all made of dark jade. It is simple yet profound.
Various formations and restrictions are densely packed, and the number of cultivators residing in the entire market is well over 100,000. During peak hours, it can probably accommodate a million cultivators.
It's no wonder the Wei family couldn't hold onto such a large amount of profit. If he were a rogue cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, he wouldn't be able to resist taking a bite of this lucrative opportunity.
Wei Shuyue had already woken up by the time they arrived.
Now, with the support of the ancestor, they pointed to the palace atop the highest extinct volcano.
He said indignantly, "That place is the core of my Wei family. It has now been occupied by the Zixia Sect, and the rest of our property has been looted by rogue cultivators. Fang Long returned before us, so he must have already informed them."
Wang Yu, however, said with a smile.
"No, he's still on his way, Shu Yue... you're underestimating the ancestor's speed."
"Furthermore, Fang Long will go directly to Yunwu Mountain to ask for help; he wouldn't dare to come back."
Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of admiration.
"We beg the Ancestor to take action and capture these thieves who are taking advantage of our vulnerability."
"Hahahaha, listen to the sound of the sword!"
