Eternal Life Begins with Bug-Refining

  Ling Wang Gu, Chen Qing’s original plan was to give it to Yan Sisi.

But now that the Spirit King knew some of his details, he hesitated whether to contract this Spirit King Gu to Chen Dan.

According to Chen Qing's speculation, the Spirit King Gu should be a production-type Gu.

Although he really likes to stay in one place, he has too many things to do.

Whether it is the elimination of the Kingdom of Water or the succession of the throne of Dalu, he is ready to intervene.

 It is better to leave it to Chen Dan, so that even if the cultivation talent is not enough in the future, he can still be a conservative king.

Took out the soul-gathering coffin from his sleeve and released King Qi and Ji Ru. King Ling looked at the two of them with interest and then didn't pay too much attention. He just focused his eyes on Chen Qing.

 Chen Qing introduced the origin of the Spirit King, and Ji Ru said: "It's different from what I expected. I originally thought it would be extremely dangerous to enter here."

 “I feel a lot more relaxed now.”

 The Spirit King stopped the formation and invited a few people to enter the depths of the underground palace.

 After Chen Qing sensed that the formation had indeed stopped, he slowly followed.

Walking through the ancient tunnel, Chen Qing and the others passed through many ancient pavilions in the underground palace and followed the tunnel to the end.

You can see that there are dozens of passages leading here, and where the dozens of tunnels converge, a large emerald green tree grows.

There are thousands of fruits on the big tree. The strange thing is that these fruits all look like humans.

 They all have green hair, some are girls, some are young, some are old and some are in their prime.

 The only thing they have in common is that they all have a pair of horns on their heads.

More like deer antlers than dragon horns.

 Chen Qing looked around and saw that everything in front of him was densely packed with spiritual Gu!

 Chen Qing walked up to a fruit and stretched out his hand to touch it. It really felt like a fruit.

King Ling introduced: "This is one of my children, called Wushan."

Chen Qing looked at Wushan’s message:

 【Lingpinshan Gu·Wushan】

 Contract conditions: Must be a creature born in Wushan and be recognized by Wushan.

 Quality: Hedaoyizhuan

  Shouyuan: 325/800

 Effectiveness: Turn the mountain it is named and assimilated into into a spiritual mountain.

Characteristics:

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　: He is the mountain.

　　　　　　：His longevity far exceeds that of ordinary spiritual Gu. When his longevity ends, Wushan will once again give birth to a spiritual mountain Gu named Wushan.

  【Manifestation】: Mountain ghosts are different from other Gu insects in that they can manifest themselves and have their own will.

　　　　　　　：He cannot be contracted as a natal Gu.

 Growth needs: the smell of harvest

  Growth progress: 0/100

 Promotion requirements: Unable to be promoted

When Chen Qing saw this, he understood clearly that there was no so-called spirit gathering array at all, it was still just Gu worms.

Chen Qing's eyes fell on the Spirit King Tree and he could see the information about the Spirit King Tree.

 【Wangpin Tree Gu·Spiritual King】(Extreme Twelfth Floor)

 Contract conditions: Promised Land.

 Quality: White Jade Eleventh Floor

 Shouyuan: 6400/10000

Efficacy: Breeding spiritual products: mountain voodoo, river voodoo, lake voodoo, tree voodoo, and grass voodoo.

Characteristics:

  【King of All Spirits】: After it obtains enough ‘nutrients’ to grow, it can breed more spiritual Gu.

 When there is no 'nutrient', one can maintain one's own existence by absorbing the conceived spiritual poison.

 She can influence the preferences of spirit Gu.

  【Reincarnation】: When the life of the Spirit King Tree reaches the end, a spirit Gu will be bred to become the new Spirit King Tree.

　　【Free Growth】: She has her own will, so living beings cannot make contracts and can only make contracts with the country, religion and other forces.

 When the power she formed a contract with fell, the Spirit King Shuli died.

　　【All things grow】: The promised land of the Spirit King Tree, where all things grow faster.

　　【Breath of Harvest】: In the Promised Land of the Spirit King Tree, all plants will receive the breath of harvest bonus.

 Growth needs: Free growth for a thousand years.

  Growth progress: 95/100

Promotion requirements: Twelfth floor, King Gu who has not yet appeared, King Gu who has not yet appeared, Seven Treasures Tree, Xi soil, Iron Cloud.

After reading this, Chen Qing understood that the existence of the Spirit King Tree should be similar to that of the Spring and Autumn Cicada, which cannot be contracted by any specific living being.

 Sojourn in the destiny of one country and one religion.

“Actually, I’m curious about what ‘nutrients’ you need.”

King Ling is not surprised that Chen Qing knows this. In her opinion, it is normal for Chen Qing to know her details.

 “The breath of new life.”

 “I like to see new life emerge.”

"Great being, I look forward to you giving me a promised land, a promised land."

 Chen Qing nodded and said: "I probably understand why you are so eager to leave."

 Chen Qing looked up and saw that thousands of fruits had dried up on the huge Spirit King tree.

 She has lost the 'nourishment' she needs, so she must use her children to sustain herself.

The Spirit King Tree followed Chen Qing's gaze and said, "Please don't worry. After I start to recover, they will come to the world again."

 “I will give them new strength.”

Chen Qing asked curiously: "What I'm more concerned about is, what will happen if all these fruits wither?"

The Spirit King did not hide it, "Then when you come here, what you will see is a seed, not me."

 Chen Qing was a little satisfied now. Although he could not contract it to Chen Dan, the effect was more powerful than he imagined.

“Come with me, and I will give you the Promised Land.”

 The Spirit King nodded happily, "That couldn't be better."

 After exploring the underground palace with King Ling, Chen Qing found no classics. Most of the classics had been completely weathered.

Chen Qing took a deep look at the Spirit King. Perhaps this was her way of protecting herself. If she needed it, she would ask her.

 After the search was fruitless, Chen Qing and the others left the underground palace with the Spirit King.

 The Spirit King Tree began to rise from the ground under the control of the Spirit King and retracted into her body.

Arriving at the edge of the Dead Sea again, Chen Qing arranged: "After Ye Chen's sword challenge to the world is completed, you will leave the world of death immediately."

King Qi cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Master!"

Chen Qing took Ji Ru and the Spirit King out of the realm of death. After bidding farewell to Ji Ru, he returned to Wen State again.

Arriving at King Wen's palace, Chen Qing said: "It's inappropriate to call you King Ling anymore, so I'll call you Ling Ji."

"Your promised land will take some time, so you have to wait for now."

Lingji said respectfully: "Yes, I am waiting for your order. I will plant it when you ask me to plant it."

Chen Qing asked: "Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to give you the promised land?"

Lingji smiled and said: "Your existence is majestic and supreme. Facing an existence like yours, I just need to wait quietly."

Chen Qingdao: "You can move around freely in King Wen's palace, just don't cause trouble."

 Lingji nodded and stretched out her hand to Chen Qing.

 Chen Qing frowned slightly, "What are you doing?"

 Lingji blinked her big shining eyes and said, "Pocket money."

“When I followed you into the city just now, I smelled the aroma of wine.”

 Chen Qing couldn't help but find it a little funny. At this moment, Lingji looked like a King Gu that was as high as the eleventh floor, but she looked more like a little girl asking her elders for pocket money.

Chen Qing took out ten spirit beads and put them in Ling Ji's hand, "Save some flowers, and ask me for them when you've spent them." He told Ying Wugang to bring four Longxiang troops to protect him, and Chen Qing let Ling Ji go. Ji went to have some fun on her own.

Ying Wugang asked: "I don't know what kind of existence this Ling Ji is. How should we deal with it?"

Chen Qingdao: "Just think of her as my daughter."

Ying Wu Gang's expression changed slightly, "Yes, I understand!"

Chen Qing laughed and said, "Tell me, is this girl cuter than Chen Dan?"

Ying Wugang was quite embarrassed, "Young Master is a man after all, so the word cute is not suitable."

Chen Qing waved his hand, "It's boring, it's boring. After becoming King Wen, you don't even dare to answer my jokes."

 “Go, let her do whatever she wants, just don’t let anyone bully her!”

Within three days, Chen Qing saw Lingji again during the meeting. Many courtiers were stunned when they saw Lingji swaggering in.

Su Yi also stopped talking.

 Lingji stepped forward with a pair of long legs, "I spent all my pocket money!"

 Chen Qing laughed and took out ten spirit beads again, "Be careful this time. I will give you ten spirit beads at most in a month."

 “Forget it this time, I didn’t tell you before.”

“Furthermore, this is the place where business is being discussed, and many courtiers are here. How can it be appropriate for you to ask me for pocket money here?”

 “When I am at court, if you have no money to spend, go find the queen!”

 Lingji felt a little aggrieved, "Oh, Lingji knows."

Lingji turned her head and jumped to the harem with her long legs.

 Chen Qing called Ying Wugang, who had been following Ling Ji, and asked, "Where has she been these days?"

Ying Wugang reported solemnly: "Sir Lingji spends most of her time in storytelling teahouses these days. She likes to listen to books, especially the king's stories. She is extremely generous with rewards."

“In addition, he likes to drink spiritual wine and has ordered all the most expensive spiritual wine in the city.”

Chen Qing reached out and touched his chin, "No wonder it's spent so fast."

 “Okay, let’s go.”

 The meeting ended within a quarter of an hour before he returned again. Chen Qing asked, "What happened again?"

Ying Wu Gang said: "Lord Lingji, you have just won the favor of the queen, and the queen gave her twenty spirit beads as pocket money."

 “Sir Lingji said that the queen is more generous than the king.”

Chen Qing laughed and said, "This little girl is interesting, let her be."

Just like that, there was a drunkard Miss Lingji in King Wen's palace. She didn't care about anything and just liked to listen to books. I heard the writers told various stories.

　　He is extremely generous in giving rewards and is addicted to alcohol. He often falls asleep on the teahouse table when he is drunk.

With Ying Wugang and four Longxiang troops protecting him, no one dared to have any other thoughts.

After Su Yi went down to court, she walked quickly to Xuan Mang and asked, "Xuan Mang, what is the origin of this girl?"

Xuan Mang shook his head.

Su Yi said: "That shouldn't be the case. You live in the palace and are the Queen's junior. You don't know. What does the Queen say?"

Xuan Mang said: "Ling Ji entered King Wen's palace for two days, and I asked to see the queen."

 “Do you know what the queen told me?”

Su Yi asked curiously: "She dared to come in swaggeringly even if she was given the right letter to discuss matters in the court. King Wen still didn't blame her, which shows that she is extremely favored!"

Xuan Mang said: "The most expensive Zuixianlou in the city, treat me to a month's stay!"

Su Yi said angrily: "You really know how to choose the most expensive one, even Ling Ji wouldn't dare to eat like this!"

 “Half a month!”

Xuan Mang chuckled and said, "Deal."

Su Yi clapped her hands and said, "The bid is too high!"

 “Speak quickly, speak quickly.”

Xuan Mang said: "The reason why I know this master is because something happened in Xumi City."

Su Yi asked: "What's the matter?"

Xuan Mang said: "When Chen Dan woke up, he saw those long legs dangling in front of him."

“Lingji pressed Chen Dan’s head and asked him to call her sister.”

 “Chen Dan refused, so he called Senior Danyangzi.”

“As a result, Senior Danyangzi failed to suppress it.”

Su Yi exclaimed: "You mean, that Ling Ji is a Taoist monarch?"

 “How incredible this is!”

Xuan Mang continued: "I went to see the queen, and the queen just said that this is a good thing for Chen Dan."

 “Besides, let me not ask about things I shouldn’t ask about.”

“Okay, today I’m going to eat dragon liver and phoenix meat with wine, and the wine is the best Zuixian Brewing.”

 “Go faster, don’t let Tingyun hear you.”

"That girl Ao Yu will be back tomorrow, so I won't go. I'll remember it first."

Many courtiers are actually quite curious about the existence of Ling Ji. Suddenly there is a beautiful woman in the palace. She is not the one from Jianyou Palace. How could they not be curious.

And looking at his clothes, he has an ancient style. Quite peculiar.

 But the strange thing is that both Chen Qing and the queen like her very much and treat her as a daughter.

It would be fine if he was just favored by Chen Qing, but the queen also liked him quite a lot and allowed her to bully Chen Dan every day. It can only be said that this person's status is really noble.

 Many courtiers returned to their homes and warned their children not to provoke Lingji.

On this day, Chen Dan just woke up and felt that his legs were being pressed. He stood up and saw Lingji sitting on his lap, with her two long legs dangling.

 “The pocket money the queen gave me has been spent. Lend me yours.”

Chen Dan finally tasted it and took out his spirit stone bag, "That's all."

Lingji opened it and asked, "Why are there only twenty middle-grade spiritual stones? Where did you spend all your money?"

Chen Dan said: "Yesterday, the brothers and fathers of King Yu's army celebrated their birthday. I invited them to have a drink at Zuixian Tower."

Ling Ji was surprised and said: "Why don't you call me if there is such a good thing?"

Chen Dan put his finger to his mouth and shushed softly, "Keep your voice down, do you call this a good thing?"

Lingji said: "It's a good thing to have wine to drink, meat to eat, and to watch beautiful girls dancing."

 Chen Dan asked: "Wait a minute, how do you know about dancing?"

Lingji said: "After you all got drunk, I ordered a few more pots, and they were delicious!"

“Speaking of which, these girls’ little hands are really soft.”

"I ran away while you were drunk. I had no money and couldn't pay the bill."

Chen Dan said: "No wonder I asked the shopkeeper why I had so many extra spiritual stones, but the shopkeeper didn't dare to tell me."

Lingji said: "I heard that there is a water country in the south. I want to go to the water country. You can take me there."

Chen Dan said: "I am currently preparing for my Gu to climb the tower, but I really can't spare the time. Master said that I urgently need my King Gu to climb the tower."

“There is still a shortage of innate wood essence. I really don’t know where to find it. Master asked me to ask if there is any stock at Jiuxuan Temple.”

“It is estimated to be a large sum of money, and it will take a lot of elixirs to be refined to get it.”

 Ling Ji didn’t care at all, “Innate wood essence?”

 “Just tell me how much you want!”

 Chen Dan:? ? ? (end of this chapter)
