Longevity Begins With Gu Refining

Chapter 213: Raging Flames, Kings, and Three Hundred Years of Hatred

"Dig in the Dead Sea, dig, dig!"

In the dim cave, Shu Hao guided the little rats in the Refinement Stage to continue digging forward with a soul lamp in his hand.

He watched from afar, not daring to get too close.

Once they dug into the Dead Sea and were washed by the water, they would sink into the Dead Sea and could not rise again.

Therefore, these little Rat Demons were at the front of the line. Once they dug through the Death Sea, these little Rat Demons would be the ones to die.

After digging through, they would dig a large hole to contain the water of the Dead Sea and then plug the hole.

Then, they would send out the rats to break through the hole again and swim into the Dead Sea. They would stand at the bottom of the Dead Sea and search for traces of their king.

Of course, this kind of little rat demon that entered the Dead Sea usually never returned.

But this was their mission. They were born to do this. This was their fate.

For their king, they would give up their lives.

Shu Hao recalled his happy days on Mount Meru, reminisced for a while, and continued to supervise.

The only thing that puzzled him was: Why was there an incomparably huge parasol tree on Mount Meru?

Also, why was the king of the rat race exiled? Could it be that he also had an immortal body?

Then, he shook his head and threw away these thoughts.

"It's better to dig out our king as soon as possible and establish a flourishing demon race!"

In the human realm.

In the main hall of the Guard Palace, Xuan Ping sat on a side seat. Opposite her was Yan Sisi's seat.

The main seat was now occupied by Wu Shang.

But Wu Shang seemed to be very sensitive. He rarely came back to discuss matters. Even when he was discussing matters, he always stood. He rarely dared to sit on Chen Qing's seat.

Actually, since young, Wu Shang had always regarded Chen Qing as a god-like figure.

Ever since Chen Qing saved him from the demon's den, he began his true youth days.

After knowing that Chen Qing regarded him as his own younger brother, he was even more overjoyed.

He was a pure person who worshipped Chen Qing.

Xuan Ping glanced sideways and saw Yan Sisi standing at the entrance of the Guard Palace. She asked: "Are you waiting for Wu Shang to come back?"

Yan Sisi shook her head and then nodded: "Sort of."

After a while, the sound of horse hooves sounded on the street. Then, people shouted excitedly: "Young general led the army to kill thousands of demons, victory!"

"Young general has returned victorious!"

"Great victory, great victory!"

Wu Shang rode Qilin back to the front of the Guard Palace with a serious expression. But after entering the Guard Palace, he closed the door.

He knelt on the ground in front of the gate of the Wei Palace. "Brother, in the end, I'm not you."

"I have let you down."

"After You left, there were rebellions everywhere."

"Brother, you never let the world know that you have the Poisonous Insect King, but everyone knows that I have the Poisonous Insect King."

"But they, they still started to rebel after you left."

A line of clear tears flowed from the corner of his eyes. Yan Sisi was slightly dazed but saw Xuan Ping quickly walk over.

"Stand up! You're not allowed to cry! Our Blackbird Tribe doesn't have a man who is so old to cry!"

"You are now the Foundation Establishment Master of Nanli!"

. "Yan Sisi Yan said softly:" Sister, at least he knew to hold it in and only showed his weak side in front of us. "

At this moment, Wu Shang took off his armor. It was full of blood.

Yan Sisi Yan was shocked: "You're injured?"

Wu Shang shook his head, "It's not my blood, it's the blood of senior brothers. I rushed too hard and was surrounded by demons. They risked their lives to protect me."

"Senior brother Chu died in front of me. Before he died, there was only worry for me in his eyes."

"I saw Senior brother Feng and Senior brother Chu die in front of me, but I couldn't do anything."

Yan Sisi Yan went forward and held Wu Shang's head in her arms, "Didn't you avenge them later?"

"You won. You won after all."

"Although we're covered in blood, we won!"

"Don't be afraid. You've done well."

She brought Wu Shang to the main hall. Wu Shang still didn't dare to sit on the throne Chen Qing used to sit on. He just stood in the middle of the hall.

Yan Sisi Yan said softly: "Wu Shang, you have to remember. In the whole world, only Big Brother will protect us."

"We're mutants. Only Big Brother can give us a way out."

"Since he trusts you, he's entrusted the affairs of the human world to you."

Xuan Ping also said: "That's right. How can the Guard Master stand in the hall to discuss matters?"

Wu Shang asked: "Can I really?"

"Can I really fulfill Big Brother's request?"

Yan Sisi Yan said: "You must. Without Big Brother, we're nothing."

"We've all experienced that kind of dark days. You should understand."

Wu Shang retracted his sad expression and went to sit on Chen Qing's seat.

"If Big Brother can suppress Nanli without using the power of the insect king, so can I!"

"Within ten years, I will send another thousand Ghost Faces to the Death Realm!"

"Pass down the order, gather all the generals and Mr. Jiang, I want to wipe out the ghost disaster of the Lin Kingdom and return peace to the Lin Kingdom!"

After the meeting, there were only three family members left in the hall.

Xuan Ping said, "I asked the new king of the South Sea to take me to see King Wu. During my absence, Wushang, you and Sisi have to take care of this place."

Two days later, Xuan Ping came outside the city gate, and a blue Luan bird flew outside, dragging a colorful Luan carriage.

Xuan Ping entered, "Sister, that matter, please."

In front of her, there was a woman exuding a bright red light, wearing a crimson feather robe, graceful and luxurious.

"Have you really thought about it?"

Xuan Ping nodded, "I have."

Chiyu Xian said, "You have to know, King Wu is now the most honorable king under Miaoshen of Nanli."

"Only the king who has the potential to become a Monarch will be conferred the title of King Wu and King Wen."

"He won't be satisfied with a normal price."

Xuan Ping said, "King Wen and King Wu jointly rule Jiuli, King Wen will lead the kings to worship King Wu, he will be satisfied with this price."

Chiyu Xian said, "Your husband is obviously unwilling to be under others, will he agree to this condition?"

Xuan Ping said, "Then in your opinion, does this generation's King Wu have the foundation to become a Monarch?"

Chiyu Xian shook her head, "I'm afraid his foundation is still a little lacking, and he still lacks some luck. His time has not come yet."

"If I remember correctly, the ceremony for his insect king to upgrade to the twelfth floor requires at least nine kings to worship him."

"But even so, it's difficult for him to reach the last step."

"That step is too difficult."

"Unless all the kings in the world fight, otherwise, he won't have this opportunity."

Xuan Ping said, "Then let him achieve the twelfth floor of the insect king, he can't become a Monarch."

"As long as he dies, my husband, who is only second to him, can support the new king of the Wu Kingdom. At that time, it should be the kings worshipping my husband!"

"My husband's age is much younger than him."

"We can outlast him."

Akabane Senshi said, "If you ask for this condition, he will definitely agree."

"But what do you want?"

Xuan Ping smiled and said, "I only wish to become his adopted daughter."

Akabane Senshi was stunned. "Sister, you are really smart."

"For the sake of my dead husband, I'll help you out once more."

"It's all because I'm all alone and have no relatives. Only your family is close to me."

Xuan Ping was very clear about the disadvantage of Chen Qing and Ji Chang. Ji Chang had the support of the kings of Great Tao.

Chen Qing, on the other hand, had no relatives. He was only close to the Queen of the South Sea.

But this was a new king, and he didn't seem to have much of a foundation.

Therefore, she had to obtain the support of the royal family, and the support of an extremely powerful king.

When Chen Qing was still around, she wouldn't come.

This was because Chen Qing was extremely arrogant.

He will only return the favor if you treat him well.

If he didn't care, he wouldn't bother trying to curry favor with him.

Xuan Ping was a woman. She didn't care about this.

She only did what was useful to Chen Qing.

Akabane Senshi immediately ordered, "Send a letter to King Wu. The Queen of Flames of the South Sea will come to visit King Wu in three days!"

Three days later, in the palace of King City, Xuan Ping finally saw King Wu for the first time. She had worshipped him thirteen times.

King Wu looked like a cute little old man. He was smiling, his hair was white, and he was very amiable.

But everyone knew that King Wu, who was located in the Martial Kingdom, at the junction of the three superpowers of Great Tao, Western Desert, and Southern Li, was definitely not an easy person.

His hands were even stained with the king's blood.

At this moment, King Wu was sitting in front of the lotus pond fishing.

Akabane Senshi led Xuan Ping forward to greet him. "Uncle Wu, you are in a good mood. You actually have the mood to fish in the palace."

"In my opinion, what's the point of fishing in the palace? It's more interesting to go out fishing."

The Martial King laughed heartily. "Oh, life, at my point, is like fishing."

"Wait for an opportunity."

"Since you are waiting for an opportunity, isn't it the same everywhere?"

King Wu turned his head and glanced at Xuan Ping. "It's Chen Qing's Dao Companion, Xuan Ping. I heard your father talk about you."

"When you were worshipping, I often heard you speak."

"The worshipping you presided over was very good."

Xuan Ping stepped forward and bowed. She was neither flattering nor rude. She was upright.

"This humble girl has come here to discuss a matter with King Wu."

Hearing this, the guard behind King Wu immediately shouted, "Impudent! What kind of status do you have? Are you worthy of discussing with King Wu?"

King Wu waved his hand: "Let her speak."

"Chen Qing, this kid, although his skills are average and his aptitude is low, in terms of Gu path, he has contributed greatly to Nan Li."

"But, it is limited to one sentence, let's see if this sentence can satisfy me."

Xuan Ping was calm under King Wu's aura, she was calm and composed.

"King Wen leads the kings to pay respects to King Wu!"

King Wu's smile suddenly froze. He reached out to grab the fishing rod in his hand, and a gust of wind rose around him.

The wind blew the lotus flowers, they danced in the air.

King Wu said word by word: "Then, what do you want?"

Xuan Ping said solemnly: "I heard King Wu has nine sons but no daughter, I am willing to be King Wu's adopted daughter!"

King Wu grabbed the fishing rod and hooked a pure white fish.

"Hahahaha, good, the fish took the bait!"

"I cultivated wholeheartedly, I had a daughter before but she died early. When she grows up, she should be like you, so sensible."

Actually, this was a continuation of King Wen leading the kings to pay respects to King Wu.

If there was such a thing, Chen Qing should be able to accept it.

It was not embarrassing to kneel to a father-in-law.

Chi Yu Immortal smiled: "Ping 'er, why are you still standing there, pay respects to father!"

Xuan Ping knelt on the ground: "Daughter greets father!"

King Wu laughed: "You should call me father."

Xuan Ping looked up: "Father."

King Wu grabbed a bunch of grass and weaved it into a rope, he tied the fish and brought it to Xuan Ping.

"Since you are my daughter, I will give this fish to you. Take it back and cook it, it can increase your lifespan by a hundred years."

Xuan Ping received it happily and stood up: "Daughter thanks father."

King Wu said: "Your infanta title is not urgent, take your time."

"I know what you are anxious about."

"Men, send my orders, destroy Feng Nest and Heir Mountain within a month."

"Take over Myriad Treasure Pavilion and kill all the rat race great demons behind Myriad Treasure Pavilion."

"Search for the remnants of Chong Gu Sect and exterminate them!"

Xuan Ping did not understand, even Chi Yu Immortal was confused.

"Father, why is this so?"

"Just to avenge your daughter?"

The Martial King said seriously, "You guys are still too young. You don't know how difficult it is to become a King, and how strong the Demonic God of the Six Paths is."

"That's the Venomous Insect King with the strongest strength. Under the Netherworld, it carries the power of heaven and earth."

"It's just that a normal battle for the throne wouldn't be able to attract it."

"It's just like the Battle of the Death Realm three hundred years ago. So many geniuses died, but it didn't show up."

"Since the snowfield has already started to make a move, I will also add fuel to the fire in the Death Realm!"

"The current King's life and King's Qi are not strong enough."

"A Demon Calamity will allow the birth of a true Demon King among the Demon Clans. Only then will the Demon Kings have a chance to lure it out."

"Only by reversing the universe and recreating the political and martial arts of the world can it be lured out."

"My son-in-law's literary luck is good enough, but his martial virtues are still lacking."

"Only a martial art that can kill kings with one's own hands can convince the Specter of Six Paths!"

Xuan Ping was still rather confused. She went up and asked, "But what does this have to do with the Phoenix Nest and the great daemon of the Rat race?"

King Wu stood up and brought Xuan Ping and Redfeather Immortal before a pear tree. King Wu reached out and plucked all the green pears on the tree, leaving only one behind.

"Say, there's only one pear left on this tree. Will it grow strong and become extremely large?"

Xuan Ping nodded. "I planted spiritual herbs with my husband for a period of time. Apart from these pears, the last one will definitely be very large and very sweet."

Redfeather Immortal seemed to understand something. "This is a method to kill a clan and gather the fate of the entire clan on a single person!"

"Humans are like fruits, splitting fate from the tree."

She was suddenly stunned. "Phoenix Nest?"

"Phoenix Nest?"

Xuan Ping asked in confusion, "Sister, what's wrong? Is there a problem with the Phoenix Nest?"

Redfeather Immortal asked in a panic, "Uncle King Wu, are you saying that Feng Xiwu of the Phoenix Nest is still alive?"

King Wu nodded. "For her son, the Phoenix Nest Goddess harmed many members of the phoenix race. She wanted to gather fate to protect her son."

"I'll help her and let Feng Xiwu return to the Death Realm at this time!"

"I'll use the last fate of his phoenix race to help him become a daemon king. I'll help him make this final gamble."

Xuan Ping asked, "Who is Feng Xiwu?"

Redfeather Immortal explained, "He was my husband's greatest enemy when he dominated the Death Realm back then. He had a Gu called nirvana, he could bathe in fire and become immortal."

"My husband could not kill him no matter what, he could only exile him to the Death Sea."

"However, since Uncle Martial King has given such an order, I presume that he will soon reappear in the Death Realm."

Only now did Xuan Ping know how terrifying the battle of the Death Realm was. All the kings and true lords were behind the scenes, pushing the situation forward together.
