Godly Immortality: Start with the Butcher and add some Immortality!

Half an incense stick later, Wei Hong walked out of Baoqixuan with a satisfied smile.

He found that Lu Xianyi was indeed not bragging, and the materials on his list were actually provided by Baoqixuan.

Satisfied, Wei Hong readily paid several thousand medium-grade spirit stones.

In fact, in the list he made this time, various basic low-level materials accounted for the majority, and the remaining small half was the materials for refining second-level intermediate-grade elixirs and drawing second-level talismans. Although those low-level materials were not expensive, the quantity he needed was very large, so he spent thousands of intermediate-grade spirit stones at once.

With such a harvest, Wei Hong restored his appearance in a hidden alley. At the same time, he controlled his breath at the third level of foundation building, and then slowly walked towards the direction of Cang Ling Palace.

Today is the once-a-month deacons' gathering. After arriving at the entrance of Cang Ling Palace, he found that the deacons' gathering was still as lively as usual. Various deacons kept coming in and out of the entrance, making it very lively.

Wei Hong had not attended this deacon meeting for many years. When he reappeared at this time, he seemed a little sad and emotional. He stood at the door for a while before slowly walking in.

After entering the Cang Ling Palace, what comes into view is still the various lively scenes.

Some people set up stalls to sell things, some gathered together to exchange cultivation experiences, some were pulled aside to conduct private transactions, and some were looking for partners to cooperate with. In short, this deacon gathering did not become deserted at all due to the lack of some monks.

Wei Hong had a faint smile on his face and walked towards the side hall at the back.

He wanted to see if Zhu Ming and others had held a small group gathering today. If so, that would be the best.

But before he reached the side hall, he met Zhu Ming and another Taoist friend named Chen Hong.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist Wei? Haha, it's really you, you finally showed up!"

The moment he saw Wei Hong, Zhu Ming immediately took two quick steps forward with a look of surprise on his face and approached him.

Chen Hong beside him was also surprised and immediately said with a smile: "Haha, Fellow Daoist Wei, we haven't seen each other for a long time. We are relieved to see that you are okay."

Seeing Zhu Ming and Chen Hong, Wei Hong was also somewhat delighted. He smiled and said, "Haha, Fellow Daoist Zhu, Fellow Daoist Chen, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I am very happy to see you two!"

When you see familiar people, you will feel a sense of intimacy.

Zhu Ming immediately stepped forward and grabbed Wei Hong, pulling him along while saying, "Come on, come on, you finally showed up. The other Taoist friends have been talking about you for a long time. Let's go over there and surprise the other Taoist friends, haha!"

Wei Hong looked helpless, but he couldn't refuse Zhu Ming's kindness.

Fortunately, he came to attend the deacons' meeting this time just to meet Zhu Ming and others again, so he naturally would not refuse.

Soon, Zhu Ming took Wei Hong to the side hall where they used to hold small group gatherings.

"My fellow Taoists, look who this is!"

As soon as he entered the door, Zhu Ming started shouting at the top of his voice.

After hearing the noise, the twenty or thirty people who were originally in the side hall immediately turned their eyes over. After seeing Wei Hong's figure, their expressions varied. Some were full of surprise, while others looked slightly solemn.

"Oh, I was wondering who could make Daoist Zhu shout like that, it turns out to be Daoist Wei!"

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Wei, it's been a long time since we last met. You're finally here!"

"Friend Wei, we are relieved to see that you are safe and sound. How are you doing recently?"

"Haha, it turns out to be Fellow Daoist Wei. It's great that you can come back to the party today. We missed you so much!"

No matter what the people present felt when they saw Wei Hong reappear, at least they all showed a kind smile on the surface and expressed a certain amount of concern, which made it impossible to find fault with them.

Wei Hongze immediately bowed to everyone and said, "Wei is honored to meet you fellow Taoists. It has indeed been a long time since we last met. I came to the party today because I want you to remember me, haha!"

After saying this, he and Zhu Ming immediately moved closer to the crowd.

The deacons present naturally gathered around with smiles, and curiously asked about Wei Hong's whereabouts in the past few years.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, have you been staying in the Spiritual Plant Garden for the past few years and have never left?" asked Chen Hong beside him.

Wei Hong immediately explained with a wry smile: "That's right, everyone should know what happened a few years ago. At that time, the Cao family clamored for me to pay with blood, and sent people to watch me outside the Spiritual Plant Garden. Under such circumstances, how could I dare to leave the Spiritual Plant Garden? Therefore, I have been in seclusion for the past few years and have never left the Spiritual Plant Garden."

There was actually no point in explaining too much about the hatred between him and the Cao family. Besides, so many years had passed, and those people in the outside world had long since determined that it was Wei Hong who killed the Cao family members, so Wei Hong simply acquiesced to it and had no intention of covering it up when he mentioned the matter.

As soon as this was said, a female cultivator named Huang Shang immediately echoed with approval, "The Cao family is so aggressive, and Fellow Daoist Wei's move is the safest approach. Anyway, the Cao family doesn't dare to force their way in. Moreover, Fellow Daoist Wei doesn't need to worry about the threat from the Cao family anymore. I believe that Fellow Daoist Wei has already heard about the news that the Cao family was wiped out, right?"

Wei Hong nodded gently and said, "Indeed, I have heard something. Haha, to be honest with you, if I hadn't heard that the Cao family was wiped out, I wouldn't have dared to attend this party!"

Everyone present agreed with his statement.

After all, for ordinary cultivators, even if the Cao family is not a behemoth, it is definitely not an existence that ordinary cultivators can easily provoke. It is the same for them. If the Cao family had not been wiped out, no one would dare to easily break the protection circle of the Spiritual Plant Garden.

"Haha, this is also Fellow Daoist Wei's luck. Now that the Cao family is gone, Fellow Daoist Wei doesn't have to worry about being retaliated against!" Zhu Ming also echoed with a smile.

At this moment, they were both moved and envious of Wei Hong's experience. He was able to remain safe and sound after provoking a Jindan family, and in the end, it was that Jindan family that was wiped out. It must be said that he was indeed lucky.

Wei Hong laughed and said, "It's not that I'm lucky, it's just that the Cao family did so many evil things that they deserved to be exterminated!"

Even now, the affairs of the Cao family are still a hot topic among many cultivators. Bringing it up at this time naturally attracted a lot of discussion from other deacons.

However, at this moment, Chen Hong beside him suddenly asked with a surprised look on his face: "Daoyou Wei, you have already broken through to the third level of foundation building?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene suddenly became quiet.

The deacons who had not noticed this matter originally swept their spiritual sense over it, and then they realized the level of cultivation displayed by Wei Hong.

For a moment, all kinds of shocked and envious eyes were cast on Wei Hong.
