Longevity Begins With Gu Refining

Chapter 99: Nurturing Manpower, Meat Gu Obtained!

Just as he was thinking, Chen Qing felt a throbbing in his body. He opened his hand, the silver-white Thunder Gu had already started to transform into a butterfly, spitting out silver threads that wrapped around him.

Chen Qing waved his hand, taking out three hundred middle grade spirit stones and placing them on the table, then placed the Thunder Gu inside.

Walking to the window, he took a look, there were still two people guarding the iron bridge. He went to the third floor and listened for a while, Jiang Miaoxian's even breathing could be heard.

Only then did he relax and return to the sixth floor, lying on the bed and preparing to sleep.

The next morning, Chen Qing woke up early and waved his hand at the Thunder Butterfly, which landed on his fingers.

[Mortal Thunder Butterfly]

The Thunder Gu had already transformed into a butterfly, he wanted to test the power of the Great Kui Sword after the three Gu worms transformed into butterflies!

Arriving at the spiritual ginseng field, Jiang Yu Hu and the rest were already waiting there.

Chen Qing waved his hand at them, "Come, the eight of you together, let's give it a try."

Jiang Yu Hu had already heard of Chen Qing's deeds, and now that he was going to fight, he was itching to personally experience Chen Qing's strength, thus he said, "Lord, we won't hold back then!"

Chen Qing smiled, "Bring it on!"

The battle ended quickly, Chen Qing sent one flying with each sword, and in just twelve swords, all eight of them were lying on the ground.

Chen Qing still held back a little.

Using the Great Kui Sword with three butterfly Gu worms at the same time, it was indeed powerful!

Jiang Yuhu rubbed his chest as he looked at his brothers who were lying all over the place. At this moment, he was truly convinced. Chen Qing had defeated all of them in a casual stroll.

Chen Qing walked in front of Jiang Yu Hu, pulling him up, "Want to learn?"

Jiang Yu Hu's face was slightly red, "Lord is saying you want to teach this sword technique to us?"

Chen Qing nodded, finding a withered tree to sit down, and after the eight of them sat down, he started chanting.

"This sword technique was comprehended by myself after roaming the world for many years."

"I call it the Rushing Thunder Sword."

"The momentum of the sword is majestic. It gathers the strength of a thousand catties and the might of lightning. Its momentum is like rushing thunder. The sword moves are grand and domineering."

Chen Qing recited the scripture as he shared his own insights so that they could quickly learn it.

Once these eight people transformed the Sword Insects and Thunder Insects into butterflies, he would like to see who in the Black Bird Tribe would dare to behave atrociously in front of him.

If the eight of them all had three Butterfly Gu worms to use Great Kui Sword, he wouldn't be afraid even at Foundation Establishment!

Thus, Chen Qing taught the eight of them the Great Kui Sword in the morning, and practiced riding the Qilin Horse in the afternoon. At the same time, he took care of the spirit fields, and occasionally gave Jiang Miaoxian some pointers in the evening. Just like that, his days settled down.

After three days, Xuan Ping came to visit again.

She was warming wine and eating venison with Chen Qing by the river. Before Chen Qing could speak, Xuan Ping placed a jade bottle on the table. "I know you are anxious. I personally went to get it for you."

Chen Qing said, "You haven't recovered from your injuries, so it's not good for you to go out and walk around."

Xuan Ping revealed a curious expression. "Are you concerned about me?"

Chen Qing was silent. There was something wrong with this woman.

Xuan Ping picked up a cup of wine and drank it. "My injuries are much better now. I can already use half of my spirit qi."

"Do you want to try Golden Skin Jade Bone?"

Chen Qing stood up. "Can you withstand it now?"

Xuan Ping said, "Let's try. You only need to use thirty percent of your strength."

Chen Qing saw that Xuan Ping was determined to try, and was also curious about Golden Skin Jade Bone.

Xuan Ping pulled up her sleeves, revealing her white arms. Chen Qing didn't look like he had much strength.

Xuan Ping closed her eyes and opened them again. Her body was already suffused with gold, as if there was a faint golden light protecting her.

A three foot long Geng Metal Sword appeared in Chen Qing's hand. He immediately used Great Kui Sword, and only used twenty percent of his strength to land on Xuan Ping's arm.

A huge rebound came from his hand, causing his hand to feel slightly numb.

Xuan Ping said, "Put in more strength."

Chen Qing heard this and continued to try. This time, he really used thirty percent of his strength, but he still couldn't shake it. He couldn't even break through Xuan Ping's protective golden light.

The two tried here. In the end, Chen Qing used eighty percent of his strength, and only then did Xuan Ping's body sway.

He reached out to support Xuan Ping who was about to fall. "It is actually so powerful, it really is indestructible!"

Xuan Ping said, "This is a spell that father obtained from the king city, of course it is extraordinary!"

"And it needs a meat Gu to cultivate. Naturally, it is much stronger than ordinary spells."

"I have only cultivated it to large success now. If all three Gu worms turn into butterflies, they will be even more powerful!"

Xuan Ping pulled down her sleeves and covered her white arms. She sat beside the river. Chen Qing sat two steps away from her and asked, "Have you tried to fight against foundation establishment?"

Xuan Ping said, "I can resist for a while, but not for long."

"If I fight to the death, I can kill foundation establishment!"

When she said this, her face was filled with strong confidence.

She was still much weaker than the Immortal Court's God Son.

But she was still very strong.

At least, she was stronger than him now.

Xuan Ping suddenly said, "The next time I break through to foundation establishment, will you come and protect me?"

Chen Qing said, "I will when I am free."

He mainly wanted to see what foundation establishment was like. After seeing Xuan Ping's foundation establishment, he would be more confident when he broke through.

Xuan Ping smiled, "Okay, then it is a deal. The next time I break through to foundation establishment, you will be by my side."

Jiang Yuhu stood guard in the distance to prevent people from eavesdropping on the conversation between Witch and Hu Kui.

Looking from afar, he suddenly felt that Witch and Lord Hu Kui were quite compatible.

He immediately gave up on this thought. Witch was about to enter foundation establishment, how was that possible?

But then he thought, with Lord Hu Kui's strength, wouldn't foundation establishment be easy?

Chen Qing and Xuan Ping's relationship was not like superior and subordinate, but more like friends.

After having a meal with Xuan Ping, Chen Qing sent her off.

The meat Gu looked very strange, it looked like a ball. But the strange thing was, it looked very simple.

[Mortal Grade Meat Gu]

Quality: Rank Three

Lifespan: 6/48

Effect: Increases muscle strength, muscle control, reaction speed.

Growth requirement: Cat Demon Tendon

Growth Progress: 18/100

Advancement Requirement: Rank Nine, Four Awakening Spirit Flowers, Three Tree Demon Cores

Chen Qing thought it would be an ugly Gu worm, but now, it looked rather cute.

The meat Gu was very elastic, it could be played with like a pinball when it was free. Throwing it on the table and bouncing it up, it was fine. Instead, it looked at Chen Qing expectantly, looking forward to another round.

After contracting the meat Gu and Copper Bone Gu, Chen Qing started to cultivate the Golden Skin Jade Bone Scripture.

When he used it for the first time, his skin did not turn golden, but only gave off a faint glow.

The Golden Skin Jade Bone Scripture's consumption was not as high as expected, but it was similar to the consumption of the Sword Butterfly before it transformed.

The main reason was that the Golden Skin Jade Bone Scripture required three Gu worms, and he only had the Iron Skin Gu to transform into a butterfly.

Of course, the consumption of Gu worms that strengthened the body was lower than other Gu worms.

This was also one of the reasons why meat Gu's attack was not strong, but it was so expensive.

On the second day after contracting the meat Gu, Chen Qing could clearly feel that his reaction speed was much faster.

His control of his body was much stronger, and his sword was much faster, quicker, and more accurate than before.

During this period, Chen Qing loved to ride horses.

Nan Li's horses were different from Da Kui. Nan Li's horses had the bloodline of spirit beasts, and after generations of nurturing, their bodies were extremely strong, and their spirit armor was impenetrable.

Compared to spirit beasts, these mutated blood horses were more suitable for battle formations.

One of the most important factors was that spirit beasts were not weak in a one-on-one battle, but if they were in Nan Li's battlefield, they would be afraid when faced with thousands of soldiers.

But these mutated blood horses would not be afraid.

Moreover, mutated blood horses were extremely strong and impenetrable, and their survival rate in a chaotic battlefield was much higher than normal spirit beasts.

Iron Flow Valley reared a herd of mutated blood horses, about a hundred of them, and the most powerful one was the head horse.

The head horse was sixteen years old, and no one had tamed it yet.

Chen Qing wanted to ride this head horse at first, but it was unwilling. When Chen Qing punched it to the ground, it immediately became obedient.

Chen Qing did not spend too much time on it, and spent most of his time practicing the Golden Skin Jade Bone Scripture and Da Kui Sword.

He learned how to ride horses so that he could be more like a Nan Li person.

As Jiang Baihu and the others gradually learned the Great Kui Sword, Chen Qing had no choice but to move his sword practice to the deeper part of the valley.

He fought against the eight Jiang clansmen who wielded the Great Kui Sword. Their battle formation was rather large.

As the long sword swept past, trees fell to the ground, rocks flew, and thunder rumbled.

Jiang Baihu now had a strange feeling, he felt that his strength was increasing by the day.

Yes, skyrocketing.

The increase wasn't just a little bit, it was an explosive increase!

Now, he could easily defeat opponents who were on the same level as him with just a few moves.

He even felt that after a period of time, when the Thunder Parasite and Sword Parasite transformed into butterflies, his strength might be comparable to Tiger Kui!

Of course, he was not talking about Chen Qing, who was considered a monster among the Tiger Kui, but an ordinary Tiger Kui.

Once he was off duty, he handed over the task of guarding Chen Qing to the other two brothers who practiced swordsmanship with Chen Qing.

He followed Jiang Shanhu to the tavern in the valley and asked for two jars of wine. He poured the clear wine and drank a bowl in one gulp before letting out a long breath.

"Awesome!"

Jiang Shanhu picked up a deer leg, "How come I haven't heard of any battles recently?"

If it was before, Jiang Yuhu might ask, "Why are you looking forward to a battle so much? Are you courting death?"

But now, he had the same feeling. He was looking forward to a battle, to test the power of the Spring Thunder Sword that Lord taught him.

Suddenly, he remembered something, "In three months, it will be the tribal meeting. At that time, you will have the chance to show off."

Jiang Shanhu laughed, "This time, I will fight for Lord's honor!"

Jiang Yuhu picked up his bowl and clinked it with Jiang Shanhu's, "That's right. Let them see which tribe is the strongest in the Black Bird Tribe!"

"So that they won't keep saying that Lord is not in the Foundation Establishment realm, but enjoys the treatment of the Foundation Establishment realm."

Jiang Shanhu said, "With Lord's strength, it won't be easy for him to enter the Foundation Establishment realm. It will happen sooner or later. Isn't it just that they are jealous of our Iron Flow Valley because we don't pay tribute?"

The setting sun shone into the tavern and fell into Jiang Yuhu's bowl.

Jiang Yuhu said, "If anyone dares to find trouble with Lord, us two brothers will take them on!"

"Wait for my Gu worm."

Before Jiang Yuhu could finish, his mouth was covered by Jiang Shanhu, "Don't mention this outside!"

Jiang Yuhu nodded, "Speaking of which, Lord is really strong. When he traveled the world, I'm afraid he took no less than three hundred lives."

Jiang Shanhu smiled, "You don't know. When Miao Xian came back, he said that when Lord escorted Witch Xuan Ping back, he killed four ninth level qi refining cultivators in one battle, defeated a hundred evil cultivators, and beheaded seventy-two people with his own hands!"

When he said this, a man next to him couldn't stand it anymore and scolded, "Bullshit, is Lord like this?"

"I heard that after Lord beheaded seventy-two people, he chased after the pursuers for three hundred miles to round up the number. He only stopped when he reached a hundred heads!"

Jiang Shanhu picked up the wine jar and poured a bowl of wine for the man, "Is it like this?"

The man laughed, "Of course. You know Yuan Feng, right? He is Tiger Kui of the Yuan Soil Tribe."

Jiang Yuhu also came over, "What's wrong?"

The man drank a bowl of wine, "Our Lord Tiger Kui beat Yuan Feng until he didn't dare to fight back. Yuan Feng cried for his parents and knelt down to call Lord Tiger Kui grandpa. Only then did Lord Tiger Kui spare his dog life!"

Chen Qing, who was passing by to take a look at the spiritual ginseng field, thought to himself, My reputation is ruined by scum like you.

Killing a thousand people in front of me is just around the corner!

Thus, Chen Qing asked for a bowl of wine and waved his hand to indicate not to disturb the people in the tavern. After listening to these fools boasting for an hour, he was satisfied and led his horse towards the spiritual ginseng field.

So it was the authority of foundation establishment that didn't need to pay tribute. It seemed that Xuan Mang really thought highly of him.

He hadn't seen the tribe assembly before. Three months was enough to turn eight people's Gu worms into butterflies.

After taking care of the spiritual ginseng field, Chen Qing went to the spiritual medicine building that Jiang Yu was in charge of and took some materials needed for the Gu worm's advancement. Jiang Yu didn't record them and let Chen Qing take them.

When Chen Qing left, he came over with the account book and asked, "Sir, we don't have much Sword Heart Grass left. Do you want to buy another batch?"

Chen Qing nodded slightly, "How many spirit stones do we have left?"

Jiang Yu said, "Not much, only about forty thousand. In the past, our Iron Flow Valley didn't have Hu Kui as the commander. Many battles were hard fought, but we didn't get many benefits."

Chen Qing nodded slightly, "If we have a war here, will foundation establishment enter the battlefield?"

Jiang Yu said, "Foundation establishment rarely appears. Unless there are two in the family, only then will they send one. But even in our Black Bird Tribe, there is only one family like that."

Chen Qing understood that foundation establishment was more of a deterrent.

As long as there was a foundation establishment in the family, ordinary people wouldn't dare to offend them and could get long-term benefits.

If they participated in the war, it would be fine if they won. But if they lost, they would suffer a crushing defeat.

"Buy another batch of Sword Heart Grass."

He carried the materials back to his own attic. He had to admit that there were some benefits to being the master of a valley.

He didn't need to go out and buy the common materials for cultivating Gu worms. He only needed to take them from the valley.

He didn't need to hide his identity to buy them. Even if he needed to buy expensive materials, he didn't need to hide it.

As the master of a valley, he should have a lot of spirit stones.
