Longevity Begins With Gu Refining

Chapter 161: Before sleeping in the camp, Meng Zhan and the others are still there

Lu Shenglong set off in the night, Chen Qing sent him off with his gaze before returning to the camp.

After this battle, it was time to look for more meat Gu.

In the night, Chen Qing spread out his perception, he was not going to sleep tonight.

With his powerful perception, he could clearly sense the enemy's movements, he wanted to keep watch personally.

He brought a chair over and sat at the entrance of his camp, resting his head on his hand.

The enemy was at an absolute disadvantage, if they still wanted to win, they had to come up with a plan.

And in the current situation, there were only a few plans, the most useful one was to assassinate him.

As long as he died, the entire army would collapse.

If the enemy still wanted to win, they had to assassinate him.

Late at night, Chen Qing finally sensed the auras of four foundation establishment late stage cultivators.

They had finally come.

Zhu Ye was sixty-two years old this year, he had a handsome appearance and had a son and a daughter.

His wife was also the first daughter of a large tribe, her cultivation was foundation establishment late stage.

Fortunately, due to his cultivation, he only looked like a middle-aged man.

To be honest, in the past, he was somewhat disdainful of assassination methods.

But now, he had no other choice, the Qing Xu army was pressing in, only by killing Qing Xu could he have a chance to stop the enemy's attack.

Fortunately, the Vermillion Bird tribe had many members, they did not lack people skilled in assassination.

Leading three foundation establishment late stage cultivators, he arrived at Chen Qing's camp in the dark. In the bonfire, he clearly saw Chen Qing sitting on a large chair at the front of the camp, sleeping with his eyes closed.

Seeing this, Zhu Ye could not help but sigh inwardly: What a hero!

He actually dared to sleep so openly at the front of the camp during the battle!

With such a heroic aura, it was no wonder so many people followed him.

This was good news to him.

This position was very convenient for him to assassinate!

If you want to blame someone, blame your heroic aura!

Zhu Ye immediately waved his hand, indicating for the three foundation establishment cultivators to follow him, turning into leaves and drifting with the wind.

Chen Qing sensed the changes, turning into leaves was rather mystical, but compared to fog Gu, it was still weak.

Zhu Ye also turned into leaves, drifting with the wind towards Chen Qing.

When he was just three meters away from Chen Qing, his heart was beating wildly. It was done so easily?

This success was a little too easy, and he found it hard to believe.

He looked around and saw that the camp was very quiet. It was obvious that no one had noticed him.

He carefully looked at Chen Qing's face and easily recognized him.

During the day, Chen Qing, who had transformed into a giant, was unforgettable.

He looked at his Foundation Establishment teammate, who was about to reach three feet in front of Chen Qing, and an inexplicable sense of fear rose in his heart.

In the next moment, he saw Chen Qing suddenly open his eyes like a sleeping dragon waking up.

He drew his sword, stood up, and slashed!

The sword light was like snow, and blood splattered everywhere.

The Foundation Establishment teammate at the front, who had transformed into a leaf, was cleaved into two halves. His entire body was dismembered!

Clean and efficient, without any mercy!

Before he even made a move, one of them had already been killed!

It was as if Chen Qing had ambushed them, and not the other way around.

After Chen Qing killed one of the assassins, he immediately executed Dragon-capturing Hands with his left hand and pulled over the other assassin.

He grabbed his opponent's neck and swung his sword to decapitate him.

Flying frost flew past, leaving streaks of frost marks on the assassin's neck. His blood condensed into ice crystals and fell to the ground.

Zhu Ye did not hesitate and immediately activated the Fire Dragon Gu, which turned into a fire dragon and flew towards Chen Qing!

Chen Qing did not even look at him and attacked the other person. A black saber appeared in the assassin's hand, and he immediately clashed with Chen Qing.

Chen Qing's enormous strength erupted, and with just one slash, he sent the other person flying and crashing into the mountain wall.

Even without using Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth, Chen Qing had the strength of at least two dragons. How could an ordinary Foundation Establishment rival him?

He turned back to look at the fire dragon that was attacking him, and with a wave of his left sleeve, he collected a large amount of flames.

The flames on Zhu Ye's body were collected, and his entire body was revealed.

Chen Qing used Dragon-capturing Hands with his left hand and used the suction force to pull Zhu Ye over. He held the three feet flying frost in his hand and stabbed it down.

With a stomp, Zhu Ye's head was smashed into pieces!

In the blink of an eye, thanks to the Flesh Gu, Chen Qing's movements were as fast as the wind blowing leaves.

Moonlight gathered behind him to form a pair of wings. Chen Qing flapped his wings and chased after Zhu Ye, slashing down three times consecutively and forcing him to retreat!

At this moment, all the Foundation Establishment cultivators in the camp heard the noise and woke up. When they walked out of the camp, they found that Chen Qing had already returned with a head.

Looking at the ground, there were already three corpses.

They went forward to take a look. "I recognize him, he's a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator!"

"I saw him during the day, I know his strength."

"This one is also a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator!"

"All four of them seem to be late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators!"

When everyone looked at Chen Qing again, their expressions already had some additional reverence.

In the blink of an eye, he killed four late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators who came to ambush him. What kind of strength was this?

Meng Zhan and the other three were still in the camp.

Chen Qing knew his own limits. Rather than saying that the other party ambushed him, it was more accurate to say that he ambushed them.

He killed two of them before they could react, and then used Universe in the Sleeve to break Zhu Ye's sorcery. Taking advantage of the other party's unpreparedness, he killed another.

Killing these three people, Chen Qing resorted to trickery.

Only the last person managed to exchange more than ten moves with Chen Qing.

How could he be a match for the current Chen Qing in a one-on-one fight?

Chen Qing reached out and captured the souls of the four people, turning them into four black fishes. He took out a purple clay pot, placed them in, and began to cook.

Seeing this divine ability, everyone vaguely understood something.

No wonder he could subdue so many evil spirits. It turned out that Chen Qing had a divine ability that specialized in restraining evil spirits.

After cooking three of the fishes until they were white, Chen Qing threw them out, leaving only Zhu Ye in the pot.

Picking up the big pot, Chen Qing drank it all in one gulp, savoring the extremely bitter fish soup. While using the power of the Sea of Bitterness to temper his body, he also absorbed Zhu Ye's memories.

Fifteen minutes later, Chen Qing opened his eyes. He had an extremely detailed understanding of the Vermilion Bird Tribe.

They could actually gather hundreds of production-type Foundation Establishment cultivators?

As expected of the Vermilion Bird Tribe.

What was even more ridiculous was that Zhu Ning actually brought these hundreds of production-type cultivators with him!

But thinking about it, it was not a peaceful time now. Bringing them with him would actually ensure his safety.

He couldn't possibly stay in Floating Sky City to guard the city. It would be a nightmare to have more than a hundred production-type Foundation Establishment cultivators guarding the city.

He even sent two hundred people to cause trouble and disrupt my journey.

In other words, Zhu Ning only had about five hundred people who could fight.

Chen Qing had sent about seven hundred people to intercept and take them by surprise. Victory was already in his grasp.

The cultivators under Chen Qing's command also began to feel a sense of respect for him.

On the afternoon of the second day, after Chen Qing woke up, he led the army to the Floating Sky City and laughed, "Zhu Yan, I have four heads in my hands. If you are willing to pour wine for me, I will return these four heads to you!"

Zhu Yan stood in front of the Floating Sky City with an unsightly expression.

"Looks like Zhu Ye and the others have failed."

The Foundation Establishment cultivators around her were begging. "Miss, please ask Young Master for help. We can't hold on any longer."

"If the treasures that the Vermillion Bird Tribe has accumulated for a thousand years are all taken, how can we continue to be superior?"

Zhu Yan hesitated for a long time before she gritted her teeth and ordered, "Send a letter to Big Brother. Remember, just tell him!"

"Let Big Brother decide for himself whether to come back or not."

A quarter of an hour later, Chen Qing saw numerous small red birds passing through the layers of clouds and flying into the distance.

A wisp of a smile appeared on the corners of Chen Qing's mouth as he ordered softly, "Stop those birds. Only let one escape."

Immediately, hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators chased after the red birds.

Chen Qing smiled as he looked at Zhu Yan. "Surrender!"

What shocked Chen Qing was that Zhu Yan actually dared to come down the city with only ten people.

Chen Qing walked a mile forward. When Zhu Yan saw Chen Qing coming out alone, she stopped the ten people behind her and one of them walked towards Chen Qing.

Chen Qing waved his hand and laid a bamboo mat on the ground. He sat opposite Zhu Yan. "You've already lost. Surrender."

Zhu Yan said, "My army is only a thousand miles away. You've only won temporarily. If you dare to attack Floating City, my brother won't let you go."

"Even if you're at the end of the world, he'll still hunt you down!"

Chen Qing smiled. "Looks like you're still not satisfied."

Zhu Yan said, "You're just taking advantage of the situation to launch a sneak attack!"

Chen Qing was happy to negotiate with Zhu Yan. It was a good way to stall for time.

He knew that Zhu Yan had the same plan, so he let her analyze the situation.

If they didn't stall for time, how could they ambush Zhu Ning's army?

Chen Qing pretended to be slightly surprised. "Only a thousand miles away?"

Zhu Yan earnestly nodded. "That's right, but it's just a thousand miles away. We can return in a day!"

"If you're confident that you can take down the Floating Sky City in one day, then make your move!"

Chen Qing sneered in his heart. 'At least three thousand miles away, and you're still lying here to trick me?'

Forget it, it's just what I want anyway. I'll play with you.

"Do you believe it yourself?"

"My condition is very simple. I want a treasure worth 100,000 spiritual pearls. Give it to me and I'll leave!"

Hearing this number, Zhu Yan almost went crazy. "One hundred thousand Spiritual Pearls, do you know what you're saying?"

Chen Qing smiled and asked, "Do you have a choice?"

"Either you bring it up yourself, or I'll get it myself!"

Looking at Chen Qing's face, Zhu Yan only felt that this face was exceptionally loathsome. "A hundred thousand Spiritual Pearls, even if you conquer my Vermillion Bird Tribe, you still won't be able to gather that much!"

Chen Qing looked up at the sky. "I'll give you four hours to think about it. If you don't agree, I'll go get it myself when the time is up!"

"When the time comes and the city is destroyed, don't blame me for being merciless!"

This price was something that even the Vermillion Bird Tribe couldn't afford.

Chen Qing was clear about the Vast Sky Tribe's wealth. The Vermillion Bird Tribe was slightly stronger than the Vast Sky Tribe, but there weren't many treasures in their tribe.

The real treasures were in the hands of those in the Profound Martial Realm. How many treasures could they have?

In the end, after three hours of haggling, Chen Qing finally lowered the price to 60,000 Spiritual Pearls.

Zhu Yan said, "Even my Vermillion Bird Tribe can't take out 60,000 Spiritual Pearls in a short time. We need to gather all the tribes that have submitted to us."

"You have to give me some time!"

She was stalling for time.

Chen Qing didn't mind.

Chen Qing smiled and said, "That's easy. But before you gather all the treasures, you have to stay by my side as a hostage and pour wine for me."

Zhu Yan glared at Chen Qing. She knew that there was no other way. She had to think of a way to stall for time until Zhu Ning returned.

Zhu Yan gritted her teeth so hard that they almost shattered. She finally nodded, "Alright, I will go back and inform my tribesmen."

Two hours later, Zhu Yan returned. Chen Qing didn't withdraw his army, he continued to pressure them.

He couldn't bring Zhu Yan back to the camp and let her see the truth.

The battlefield fell into a strange stalemate.

September 15th. Chen Qing participated in a gathering at night.

There wasn't anything too important, he just gave some pointers every day.

In his opinion, it wasn't as intense as his current battle.

On the contrary, this Red Lotus girl was getting richer and richer. He couldn't make sense of it.

Why did he feel that Red Lotus also had a blessing Gu?

After the gathering, Chen Qing mobilized a hundred and eighty people to assist Lu Shenglong in killing Zhu Ning.

With such a strong army, Lu Shenglong would definitely not disappoint him.

Chen Qing himself led the remaining hundred people and continued to march in front of Floating Sky City. He swaggered in front of Floating Sky City and enjoyed Zhu Yan's service.

Such a fearless behavior made the people of Floating Sky City feel increasingly anxious, they hoped that Zhu Ning would return quickly.

Zhu Yan had been serving Chen Qing these few days, she felt extremely humiliated. As a noble lady of Vermillion Bird tribe, she actually had to serve a nobody!

Even the royal descendants were respectful to her, they didn't dare to wrong her in the slightest!

And Chen Qing had always been arrogant and bossy.

But after waiting for three days, she still hadn't received any news that Zhu Ning had returned to the army. This made her feel somewhat worried.

Could it be that her big brother had already given up on the Floating Sky City?

Impossible, even if he gave up on me, he wouldn't give up on the treasures in Floating Sky City!

At night, Chen Qing was lying on a bamboo mat with his eyes closed, "Pour the wine."

Although Chen Qing was bossy and bossy, he didn't allow himself to have any physical contact with Zhu Yan.

He still had great use for this woman, he couldn't have any physical contact with her.

This was another rope that would control Lu Shenglong in the future.

At this moment, a Foundation Establishment cultivator suddenly flew over on his sword and landed in front of Floating Sky City. After inspecting it, he rushed toward Chen Qing.

"Guard Lord, a battle report from the frontline!"

Chen Qing was immediately energized. He picked up his wine cup and drank a mouthful of spirit ginseng wine, "Read it!"

The messenger immediately took out a letter from his sleeve and read, "After Commander Lu took over the command of the army, he reorganized the army and decided to ambush Zhu Ning's army at Six Pan River!"

"Our army laid in ambush at the river for three days, waiting for Zhu Ning to lead the army over."

"This is the closest route for Zhu Ning to return to the army. Commander Lu predicted that Zhu Ning wouldn't care about a few dozen miles of swamp."

Hearing this, Chen Qing didn't have any reaction, but Zhu Yan already couldn't hold the wine pot in her hand.

The wine pot fell to the ground and shattered.

The clear wine instantly flowed all over the crimson ground.
