Longevity Begins With Gu Refining

Wu Shang came out of the mountain.

If he could win for sure, who would want to play the game?

In Chen Qing's opinion, Ji Chang didn't seem to be a blind and arrogant person.

Even a lion would use all its strength to catch a rabbit.

Even if Ji Chang had the upper hand now, he still kept increasing the pressure on the entire Li Army.

As the saying goes, the best strategy is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

Compared to Ji Chang who entered the Western Desert alone, fought with many Profound Martial Realm cultivators, and defeated all the geniuses of the demon clans along the way.

Chen Qing's process of unifying the Foundation Establishment of Nanli didn't seem to be much of a deterrent.

Now, Li Chonghuan personally said that he wanted to enter the battlefield, and he was already preparing to break through to the Ghost Face Realm and enter the Death Realm in advance.

It also made the entire Foundation Establishment of Nanli feel the pressure.

Nanli had experienced a large-scale war between Foundation Establishment. In their opinion, Chen Qing could cause so much destruction on the battlefield without the venomous insect king.

Then, what kind of heaven-defying effect would a cultivator like Li Chonghuan, who had the venomous insect king, have in the war?

They wondered how Wu Shang was doing.

Was there really a venomous insect king in Linglong Divine Palace?

Of course, Chen Qing didn't put all his hopes on Wu Shang.

Wu Shang wasn't the only one who had the king's aura under his command.

Fu Luo, Hong Lian, and Yao Feng were all candidates.

His life-bound light butterfly was about to advance.

However, he still had to deal with the people's hearts.

Chen Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Let Wei Qingchen spread the word."

"Li Chonghuan is just a defeated opponent. Don't panic."

Ying Wugang looked at Chen Qing seriously. "Master Wei once defeated Li Chonghuan?"

Chen Qing laughed. "It's just a small matter. It's not worth mentioning!"

Ying Wugang quickly went to pass the message. With Wei Qingchen's words, the situation in Nanli finally calmed down for a moment.

However, the aftermath of Li Chonghuan's involvement still didn't dissipate.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Qing swallowed a spear ghost. While devouring the memory of the spear technique, he walked outside the White Bone Buddha Temple.

"It's not over yet?"

This game of chess had been going on for a long time.

Not far away, the Azure Dragon Girl wasn't afraid.

He sat in his dragon boat and waited quietly. He did not see her leave the dragon boat.

It was as if she was afraid that Chen Qing would go back on his word and kill her.

The Azure Nether Dragon Lady was a member of the Dragon Palace after all. Although she was unruly by nature, she still maintained her due respect towards Chen Qing, the Foundation Establishment Master of Nanli.

In fact, Chen Qing didn't think much of these two monks.

They made it seem as if as long as they came out of the mountains, the world would be at peace.

However, he had never heard of anyone who was truly capable.

However, because of the Western Desert Buddhist Sect, he had to give them some face.

Chen Qing's personality was actually rather strange.

Arrogant to the top but pitiful to the bottom.

The more you put on airs, the more Chen Qing would look down on you.

On the contrary, people like Yan Shiying, who had risen from humble beginnings, were highly valued by him. Unfortunately, their standpoints were different.

This had something to do with his background.

After another three days, Ying Wugang suddenly came to report, "Reporting, Master Wei, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Country of Water broke through to the Ghost Face Realm without permission. He intends to open the Ghost Gate and enter the Death Realm in advance."

"He has been killed by General Shi."

"It's just that his clan is a large clan from the Country of Water. Shi Xin Tie asked Lord Wei what he should do."

Chen Qing's eyes narrowed. "Say that again?"

Ying Wugang gritted his teeth. "General Shi asked, what should we do?"

Chen Qing was angry not because someone from the Country of Water broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm without permission, but because Shi Xin Tie actually came to ask!

He had forcefully subdued the Country of Water, it was understandable that they didn't want to follow him.

But was there a need to ask?

Exterminate his clan!

If not for Li Chonghuan stating that he wanted to join the battle, Shi Xin Tie might not have asked this.

Shi Xin Tie felt that he couldn't survive.

Chen Qing shouted coldly: "Let him decide!"

"Let him think about it carefully!"

After saying that, Chen Qing was somewhat anxious.

Southern Li was a pile of loose sand in the end, its cohesiveness could not compare to a unified immortal dynasty like Great Wu.

How could such a thing happen to Ji Chang's subordinates!

The news came a month later, Shi Xin Tie led the troops to exterminate the sinner's clan, heads rolled and corpses piled up into mountains. Thousands of people were killed in one battle, their blood dyed the sea red.

Hearing this news, Chen Qing's anger was barely appeased.

On this day, Chen Qing could not be bothered to continue waiting. In his opinion, it was just a mere monk, it was not important.

Chen Qing made a contract with Sumeru Gu and quickly started to nurture it.

The current Sumeru Gu was not enough for him to use Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth to grow to its normal size.

It was still a thirty feet tall giant.

This was understandable, the current Sumeru Gu was only rank one Gu.

Fortunately, he could follow the advancement map left behind by Cheng Tianyou and transport all the materials needed to advance to Dao Integration in one go.

He did not need to search for them after advancing.

This way, he could save a lot of time. In at most half a year, he could advance Sumeru Gu to Dao Integration.

After getting Zuo Chuan to send a letter to Nine River City to send the materials over, Chen Qing was about to find another spear ghost when he saw the little monk Wang Yuan walking towards him.

"Looking at Lord Wei's expression, it seems you don't care about Wang Yuan?"

Chen Qing did not conceal it, "Compared to you assisting me, I value Western Desert's Buddhist Sect's attitude more."

Wang Yuan said, "Senior brother has already gone to Da Wu with the Green Nether Dragon Lady."

"Since Lord Wei does not value me, I will naturally have to show you some methods."

Wang Yuan reached into his sleeve and took out a jade bottle.

"This Gu is called Enlightenment."

"It is a specialty of our Western Desert's Buddhist Sect."

"It is one of the most special spirit Gu."

"Any Gu worm, as long as it is in front of Jian Wu, can be seen through at a glance."

Only then did Chen Qing get interested. But when his gaze landed on the jade bottle, he lost interest in making a contract with it.

He could only see the effects and uses of the other party's Gu worm.

He could not see through all the secrets of the Gu worm like himself.

Its uses could not compare to his own.

It was not of much use to Chen Qing.

However, he could give this Gu worm to Xuan Ping or Wu Shang.

Right at this moment, Zuo Chuan came forward and reported hurriedly, "Lord Wei, Sir Wu Shang stopped the Green Nether Dragon Lady's dragon boat and asked her to send a message to Li Chonghuan to fight at the border of Da Wu and Ye Country!"

Hearing this news, Chen Qing finally showed a look of joy.

"Wu Shang is out?"

"Hahaha, with my second brother here, he will definitely be able to suppress Li Chonghuan!"

Chen Qing grabbed the jade bottle in Wang Yuan's hand and tossed it to Zuo Chuan, "Take it and give this Gu to Wu Shang!"

"Then, summon the troops of the three countries near Ye Country and let the three guard generals lead an army to support him!"

If Wu Shang had not challenged Li Chonghuan to a fight, Chen Qing would have hesitated.

Wu Shang was one of his trump cards. If he revealed it now, the other party would be on guard.

However, Li Chonghuan's news had just arrived and there was already a Foundation Establishment Cultivator who wanted to break through to Ghost Face realm. The situation was clearly unstable.

Now that Wu Shang made the request, Chen Qing could only support it.

At this point, Chen Qing was still worried.

"Anyway, they are not far from here. Let's go, I want to meet my second brother."

Chen Qing turned around, "Master Wang Yuan, are you interested in taking a look?"

As for Chen Qing, he directly took away an extremely rare spirit Gu like the comprehension Gu and even gave it away casually.

However, he did not show any anger. It was clear that he was good at maintaining his composure.

"Since Lord Wei has invited me, this little monk naturally has to go and meet him."

"You dare to challenge Li Chonghuan, the only one in the Zhuji Realm in the world who has the Poisonous Insect King. I also want to see how powerful you are."

However, three days later, Chen Qing caught up with Wu Shang, who was preparing to head to the Ye Country.

Meeting his brother, Chen Qing was naturally overjoyed.

Wu Shang was merely 15 years old now, but his body was much sturdier.

However, his face had yet to grow a beard, making him look slightly immature.

Chen Qing strode over and gave the two brothers a bear hug.

Chen Qing stretched out his hand and pressed on Wu Shang's shoulder. "Your body has become much stronger. You're almost taller than me!"

"You have been staying in Linglong Divine Palace all this time. I am so worried about you!"

A smile appeared on Wu Shang's face. Seeing Chen Qing again made him incomparably happy.

"Brother, you've done a good job!"

Since Wushang had received the inheritance in Linglong Divine Palace, he had been suppressing his anger and was ready to come out and kill everyone.

As soon as he came out, he discovered that Chen Qing was already the Foundation Establishment Lord of Nanli.

Looking around, there was not a single enemy in sight.

He was very disappointed.

It just so happened that some time ago, he heard that Li Chonghuan was going to the Death Realm personally. Only then did he find a target.

What did he mean by the only Foundation Establishment Lord in the world with a Gu King? Didn't he, Wu Shang, have a Gu King?

Chen Qing asked, "Second Brother, how confident are you in fighting Li Chonghuan this time?"

Wu Shang said, "I don't dare to say that I will definitely win, but I can guarantee that I won't be defeated!"

Chen Qing said, "That's enough!"

"Li Chonghuan is a scheming person. He might not use his true means in this battle."

"It's good that the battle is a draw. Let the world know that they are not the only ones with Foundation Establishment Lords who have a Gu King."

Wang Yuan, the little monk beside him, was extremely surprised. It seemed that their Western Desert Buddhist Sect had seen through this Nanli Sovereign.

He actually had a younger brother who had a Gu King!

A Gu King was not some cabbage that could be obtained just because one wanted to.

Chen Qing did not ask to take a look at Wu Shang's Gu King. Wu Shang had received the inheritance and probably had a promotion atlas, so he did not need his guidance.

"Have you arranged the itinerary for this trip to the Ye Country?"

Wu Shang suddenly became a little shy, "Sister Sisi has already gone to arrange it herself. There shouldn't be any mistakes."

Chen Qing laughed, "It's time to let Sisi take care of you. Otherwise, at your age, with a Gu King, and immature temperament, you will cause trouble sooner or later!"

Neither of the two women in the family was easy to deal with.

Chen Qing knew this better than anyone else.

It was also because of them that Chen Qing dared to patrol Nanli with ease.

"Since Sisi has already gone to arrange it, there won't be any mistakes. You just need to listen to her arrangements."

Wu Shang said confidently, "It's time to let those unconvinced Guard Generals see the foundation of our Black Bird Tribe."

Thinking of Wu Shang's special physique, Chen Qing said, "No matter what, don't let yourself get hurt!"

Wu Shang said, "Brother, don't worry. I don't have that worry now!"

Hearing this, Chen Qing was completely relieved, "That's good. This trip will definitely strengthen our Nanli's prestige and make those rascals not dare to do anything."

After spending three days with Wu Shang, Chen Qing let Wu Shang go to prepare.

As for Chen Qing, he returned to the dark clouds with the little monk, Wang Yuan.

It was time for him to devour this spear master's obsession and allow his martial arts to advance to the next level.
