Longevity Begins With Gu Refining

Chapter 174: Nan Li Academy

There was no need to mention the benefits of writing a book, even if he was not blessed by God Miao.

Then he would become the favorite of Nan Li's cultivators.

Who would reject the remaining one-third of Gu worm cultivation resources for no reason?

Moreover, his theory on butterfly transformation was higher than the Divine Book.

It could be said that as long as he successfully wrote 'Common Gu Worm Theory in Nan Li', he would become a more popular figure than Yan Shiying.

There would be no more risks under his rule, all of Nan Li's cultivators would submit to him willingly.

It would even reach a point where he did not want to be the leader and others would not agree.

The downside was, how did a mere foundation establishment like him do it?

The theory he proposed was called the Yin Yang Theory.

According to his observation, common Gu worms were mostly compatible with a set of Yin Yang Theory.

Thus, there were three types: Pure Yang, Pure Yin, and Yin Yang Balance.

First, the Gu worm would have a Yin Yang Inclination Ratio, and the materials would have a Yin Yang Inclination Ratio.

For example, the Strength Gu was a pure strength path Gu worm. It was neutral and peaceful, and its Yin Yang Inclination Ratio was 1: 1.

Thus, the final Yin Yang Inclination Ratio of the Strength Gu was either 1: 1 (Yin Yang Balance), 100 Yin (Pure Yin), or 100 Yang (Pure Yang).

Using the Yin Yang Balance Strength Gu as an example, the materials on its Promotion Atlas had to reach a Yin Yang Balance, and yang and yin materials with the same Yin Yang Inclination Ratio.

Yin Yang Inclination Ratio was 50.

(This is too complicated, so I won't go into detail. It is suspicious of hydrology. Anyway, everyone knows that this theory is close to the correct cultivation theory of Gu worms.)

He narrowed down the cultivation scope again.

What he needed to do now was to set a Yin Yang Inclination Ratio for each Gu worm's cultivation material, and determine the Yin Yang Inclination Ratio of these Gu worms.

Chen Qing probed, "If sir gathers a large amount of information on Gu worms, can you deduce the Promotion Atlas according to my theory?"

Jiang Xing Chuan said, "Of course!"

"Master Wei's theory can be said to be perfect. I only need to add bricks and tiles to it!"

Hearing this, Chen Qing heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as there were others who could deduce the Promotion Atlas according to this theory, it would be good. This way, it would not be his alone credit.

This way, he could only provide a theoretical basis and not completely know the evolution map of Gu worms.

After eliminating the risk of being captured and locked up in the Sutra Depository, Chen Qing said, "If that's the case, I would like to establish an academy with Mister Jiang as its dean and gather the members. What do you think?"

Jiang Xing Chuan looked at the book in his hand and couldn't put it down. "Not good, I'm only working for Lord Wei. With such a great achievement, I'm not worthy to be the Dean!"

"I'll be the Vice Dean of the Academy."

Chen Qing said, "That's good too. Mister, you'll be the Vice Dean of the Academy. You'll be able to recruit knowledgeable people to work together on such an important matter!"

"How many people does Mr. Jiang think are suitable?"

Jiang Xingchuan said, "Fifty people is enough. After all, it's not easy to find a knowledgeable person in Southern Li."

"That's right, the Ye Nation of Nanli admires knowledgeable experts the most. If Lord Wei sends this book to the Ye Nation, the Ye Nation's Foundation Establishment cultivators will definitely be convinced!"

"Even if they have to travel all the way to the moon, they must rush to the front of the Guard Master to listen to his teachings!"

Chen Qing said, "This book still needs to be tested. We can't release it just like that."

"We can't be careless in our exploration of the Great Dao!"

Jiang Xingchuan cupped his hands and said, "Lord Wei is right. I was too excited."

"Then I'll go and recruit talents now?"

Chen Qing nodded and let Jiang Xingchuan do the work.

Sitting in the midst of the books, Chen Qing suddenly realized that he seemed to have accidentally done something big again.

Moreover, the prestige brought by this event was much greater than that of Miao Shen's Divine Blessing.

In the future, this would very likely become the true foundation for him to become a king.

He might even become a teacher.

Just as he was about to revise the Strength Gu Chapter, he realized that Jiang Xingchuan seemed to have taken the book away.

Chen Qing couldn't say anything. He could only ponder again and prepare to write it more carefully.

After revising and revising, a month passed.

Shi Xin Tie had conquered the Water Nation. On the way, he received Chen Qing's orders and went to the Water Nation's Divine Weapon Treasure Realm. After taking the treasure medicine, he finally arrived at Langya City.

When he arrived at Langya City, he saw Chen Qing at the city gate. He sat under the hood of a luxurious carriage and looked at him.

Xuan Cuo, who was accompanying him, pointed at Chen Qing and said, "That's my brother-in-law, the head of the Li Army Guard."

Shi Xin Tie looked at Chen Qing, who was sitting at the city gate. The Foundation Establishment cultivators who passed by did their own things and didn't greet him. He knew that Chen Qing didn't put on airs.

He didn't like to put on airs.

Of course, this was only limited to normal situations.

If it was a major event and the military, they would have to at least half-kneel.

As for the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Lin Nation, they basically knelt on both knees to show their respect.

Chen Qing's battle outside the Giant Tree Forest had really beaten them into submission.

Shi Xin Tie jumped off his horse and strode to Chen Qing. He knelt on one knee and said, "Your subordinate, Shi Xin Tie, has successfully eliminated the traitors of the Water Nation and taken the treasure medicine from the Divine Weapon Treasure Realm. I'm here to report to you!"

Chen Qing walked down from the luxurious carriage and helped Shi Xin Tie up. "Very good. I heard that the general showed off his prowess in the Water Nation. I'm very happy."

"Since that's the case, please follow me into the city and reward the army!"

Chen Qing held Shi Xin Tie's hand and went to the newly built Guard Palace in the city to hold a banquet.

To show his respect, Chen Qing specially arranged for Shi Xin Tie to sit at the first table on the left.

On the left were the military Shi Xin Tie, Lu Shenglong, Zhang Can and Yan Bailiang.

On the right were Su Yi, Jiang Xingchuan, Qing Ran, Xuan Cuo, Xuan Mang and Wei Qingchen who arrived later.

There was no need to mention Xuan Cuo and Xuan Mang.

Wei Qingchen had been cultivating under the Feather Immortal Tree for several months and obtained a few Spirit Gu that Xuan Ping didn't want. His strength was also much stronger than before.

No one had any objections to Wei Qingchen sitting in such a position.

After all, Wei Qingchen represented Chen Qing's Xuan Bird Tribe and the powerful force behind Chen Qing (Extreme Light Sect).

Only Qing Ran was slightly uneasy.

Be it Su Yi, Jiang Xingchuan, Zhang Can, Yan Bailiang, Lu Shenglong and Shi Xin Tie, they all had solid battle achievements.

Only Qing Ran, who had almost no achievements, was still in the upper echelons.

This was purposely arranged by Chen Qing and Xuan Ping after discussion, so that Xuan Ping could fully control Lin Nation's forces.

Chen Qing saw that everyone was here, he laughed loudly: "Shi Xin Tie is here, now all the heroes of my Li Soldier Guard are gathered together!"

"Everyone, follow me to toast General Shi Xin, the expedition has been tiring!"

Shi Xin Tie stood up and drank the wine in his cup as he observed everyone in the hall.

"Thank you, Guard Lord, for the wine!"

Other than Qing Ran, Xuan Cuo, and Xuan Mang, he felt a faint sense of danger from the other six, he knew that these six people were not inferior to him.

As for Chen Qing, he could not see through him at all. But since Chen Qing could subdue the six people with similar strength to him, he could guess that Chen Qing's strength was already at the top of Southern Li.

The seven of them had gone through many battles, they had used spirit Gu to supplement their Gu worm battle system from the spoils of war, they were the top talents.

But they still lacked Gu worms that could change their strength qualitatively.

For example, a Gu worm that could allow Chen Qing to use law embodiment.

Such a special Gu worm was too rare, it only appeared once in a thousand years.

This was also the reason why Chen Qing could suppress the traitors of Southern Li.

As for Xuan Ping, this Lady Guard Lord, he did not pay much attention to her at first, but after sitting down, he quickly realized.

Everyone had more respect for Chen Qing, but they were more afraid of Xuan Ping than Chen Qing.

Instantly, he knew that this Madam Wei wasn't weak and her methods were really strong.

As for Xuan Cuo and Xuan Mang, his judgment was that Xuan Cuo had a good grasp of the situation, he was suitable to be in charge.

As for Xuan Mang, he was more inclined towards killing and fighting, but his Gu worms were not of high quality, thus, his strength was not at the level of the others.

After several rounds of reorganization, Chen Qing's current strength was already formed.

"Since General Shi is here, then our Li Bing Guards should be on the right track."

Chen Qing took out a yellow scroll: "Wei Qing Chen, read it."

Wei Qing Chen got up and received the scroll, reading it: "Shi Xin Tie has great merit in conquering Water Country, go to the general's horn and be conferred the title of General Guard!"

Shi Xin Tie got up and went to the front of the hall, kneeling on one knee as he thanked: "Thank you, Guard Lord!"

"Lu Sheng Long has great merit in conquering Vermillion Bird tribe and fighting against Yan Shi, he has great merit, go to the general's horn and be conferred the title of General Guard!"

Lu Sheng Long happily got up and went to the front of the hall, kneeling on one knee: "Thank you, Guard Lord!"

"Zhang Can has great merit in conquering enemies, he is conferred the title of General Guard!"

Zhang Can stood up, cupped his hands towards the surroundings, and knelt down on one knee. "Thank you, Guard Lord!"

"Yan Bailiang has rendered meritorious service by following the Guard Lord. He shall be conferred the title of Guard General!"

Yan Bailiang was the only one who did not kneel on one knee. He only cupped his hands towards Chen Qing and bowed.

"Thank you, Lord Guard."

Chen Qing did not mind. After all, Yan Bailiang was a rather indifferent person and did not care about such things.

"Xuan Cuo, Xuan Mang has rendered meritorious service in stopping Yan Shiying.

Xuan Cuo and Xuan Mang stood up. Xuan Mang was still hesitating when he saw that Xuan Cuo had already knelt down on one knee. He hurriedly followed up, "Thank you, Guard Lord!"

Xuan Cuo lowered his posture, and Xuan Mang followed suit.

"In the future, after selecting dragon stallion Gu and black armor Gu, every guard general can lead eighty dragon stallion Gu."

"Every Guard General can recruit 320 Foundation Establishment cultivators. Each division has a total of 400 people."

"After Yan Shiying is pacified, each of you will lead your troops to conquer one of the six countries besides the Wu Country, the Lin Country, and the Yan Country."

Saying so, Chen Qing said indifferently, "Shi Xin Tie can be the first to be selected."

Because Shi Xin Tie originally had around five hundred people under him, this would reduce his military strength instead. Thus, he had to give some benefits.

Shi Xin Tie also understood that this was to appease him. After thanking Chen Qing, he asked, "I wonder how the Dragon Stallion Army will be selected?"

Chen Qing said, "The Dragon Stallion Army only has eight hundred people. I want to choose two hundred from my own division, three hundred from the other countries of Nan Li, and three hundred from Iron Country. Are you satisfied?"

Shi Xin Tie wanted to say that this was different from what they had agreed on, but thinking that Chen Qing's division only had two hundred people, he could only agree.

Iron Country's share had already surpassed Chen Qing's division, how could he refute?

Chen Qing continued, "Yan Country's Divine Weapon Treasure World has some ten year lifespan Gu."

"Iron Country's Foundation Establishment cultivators who are not selected will be given a ten year lifespan Gu each!"

At this point, Shi Xin Tie was completely convinced, he got up and knelt on both knees, "Thank you Lord Wei for placing so much importance on my Iron Country's Foundation Establishment cultivators."

Wei Qing Chen continued, "Qing Ran led Lin Country's Foundation Establishment cultivators to seek refuge with Lord Wei, he is the model of Nan Li and has made great contributions."

"Establish the military intelligence department, Qing Ran will be the head of the military intelligence department, under the command of Lady Xuan Ping."

Qing Ran was overjoyed, he quickly got up and thanked.

Now, he finally had a clear backer.

"Su Yi, since the start of Lord Wei's army, you have followed Lord Wei. Along the way, you have made great contributions, you will be appointed as the head of the army, managing Nan Li's government affairs!"

Even Su Yi himself did not expect that he would have such a high position.

This head of the army was nominally above the generals!

Moreover, according to Chen Qing's division, in the future, these six generals would be sent to guard a country.

And he, would be in charge of the affairs of the nine countries!

Su Yi got up and shouted, "Even the elders in the clan would not have thought that I, Su Yi, would be in charge of the affairs of the nine countries one day, right?"

"Following Lord Wei, isn't it an honor?"

Su Yi came to the hall, knelt on the ground, and bowed.

Regarding this point, Shi Xin Tie looked at the people in the hall. After seeing that they did not have any objections, he also fell silent.

Su Yi's popularity was very good. He had participated in many things.

Therefore, everyone believed in him.

Wei Qingchen continued, "Wei Qingchen, following Lord Wei's expedition, has rendered meritorious service, and is conferred the title of general. Under his command, there are 320 people in the Dragon Legion, 480 people in the Foundation Establishment stage, and 800 people in total, as Lord Wei's personal guards."

After Wei Qingchen finished speaking, he was actually somewhat moved. He also bowed in front of Chen Qing.

After a full ten breaths, he stood up.

Regarding this point, the generals did not say anything. Chen Qing's headquarters should be able to suppress the generals.

Wei Qingchen continued to read, "Establish an academy, study the common Gu worms in Nan Li, and Lord Wei will personally preside over it. As the dean of the academy, he will appoint Jiang Xingchuan as the vice dean and write the book 'Common Gu Worms in Nan Li'!"

Jiang Xingchuan already knew about it and gladly accepted the order.

However, the other generals were amazed.

If the previous appointments were normal, then the meaning of this appointment was completely different.

Writing a book was a major matter that concerned the entire Nan Li.

From this point alone, they could feel how far-sighted Chen Qing was.

As expected of Lord Wei, to be able to think of this level.

If he really succeeded in writing a book, then Chen Qing would be more popular than Yan Shiying.

Yan Shiying represented only the bottom level of Foundation Establishment, while Chen Qing would gather the hearts of all the Foundation Establishment in Nan Li.

This was a truly earth-shattering event!

Shi Xin Tie, who had been slightly unhappy before, was now completely convinced.
