The Longevity Family: Starting From The Branches And Leaves

Chapter 58 Moving Again (Seeking Monthly Votes)

Chu Gui himself is a very talkative person, with a gift for gab. However, he was frightened by the sudden war last night, which made him feel a bit at a loss.

Now that he feels the war is over and Chen Ling has accepted him as a guest of the Chen family, he no longer has to worry about his life.

Immediately, he returned to his true nature.

He talked incessantly.

Chen Ling spends most of his time refining tools at home. Apart from the market, he knows very little about the surrounding area.

Under Chu Gui's endless introduction, he has a general understanding of the scenery and situation in the Yunmeng Marsh and even the entire Western Wilderness.

The Southern Territory of the Yunmeng Marsh is a general term for the area south of the Yunmeng Marsh.

This area is extremely vast.

It is an area that the human cultivators have newly developed in the past thousand years.

Currently, there are four major human sects ruling over it.

Qingyang Sect, Metallurgy Alliance, Hundred Beasts Sect, and Su Yun Sword Sect.

Each sect has several Gold Core cultivators sitting in power.

The Western Wilderness is even more vast, with the existence of two super sects.

Lan Yue Sect and Divine Might Alliance.

It is said that both forces have Soul Formation cultivators sitting in power.

Hundreds of sects in the Western Wilderness mostly submit to these two behemoths.

Within a few hundred miles of the Jinshan Market, only the branch of Qingyang Sect has a second-grade spiritual vein.

That is where the Wang family resides.

Other Foundation Building families, including the market, have artificially constructed spiritual veins.

Artificial spiritual veins are formed by gathering spiritual formations and stacking spiritual stones.

In addition to the sect families, the market also has forces with different backgrounds, such as Wanbao Tower, Cloud Pill Hall, and Treasure Talisman Alliance.

Chu Gui used to rely on purchasing low-grade runes or pills from these major shops in the market and then selling them in the mining area.

Not only was it hard work, but it was also risky, and although the profit was barely acceptable, Chu Gui, who valued his life, quickly gave up.

Later, Chu Gui, relying on his experience, discovered a business opportunity, took a different path, and refined the Dragon Tiger Pill according to the ancestral secret recipe, successfully making his first fortune.

He settled in the market shortly after, but in recent years, there have been more and more of this type of pill on the market, making the competition even fiercer.

Fortunately, the quality of the pills he refined was good, and he had many repeat customers, which allowed him to have enough spiritual stones to purchase materials and refine other pills.

After roughly understanding the situation, Chen Ling smiled and asked, "Friend Chu, I wonder if you can refine the Yuan Replenishing Pill?"

The Yuan Replenishing Pill can greatly enhance the cultivation of both him and his wife during their dual cultivation.

If Chu Gui can refine it, it would greatly reduce a lot of trouble in the future!

Chu Gui understood the meaning behind his words and blinked his eyes. He realized that Chen Ling spends every day at home with his four beautiful wives and wouldn't be able to handle it without the Yuan Replenishing Pill.

Shaking his head, he said, "The Yuan Replenishing Pill is a second-grade pill, and although I can barely refine it at the moment, I don't have the recipe!"

"Nowadays, there are too many counterfeit Dragon Tiger Pills on the market. I also want to find the recipe for the Yuan Replenishing Pill. Even if I can't refine it, I can improve the Dragon Tiger Pill."

Chen Ling was speechless. This guy is really talented. Not only does he have talent in alchemy, but he also seems to have an extraordinary sense in business!

"Friend Chen, would you like this Dragon Tiger Pill?" Chu Gui said with a smile.

With a blush on his face and a playful expression in his eyes, Chen Ling shook his head. He bought the Yuan Replenishing Pill to enhance his wife's cultivation. He knew that he couldn't explain this kind of thing to Chu Gui.

He could only change the topic and chat with Chu Gui about other things.

...

After lunch.

Shen Zhen and a Qi Refining late-stage cultivator from the Qin family, Qin Tong, arrived.

Shen Zhen looked tired and his aura was somewhat weak.

After a brief greeting, Chen Ling took his family and followed Shen Zhen to the Qin family.

As for the check-out procedures, Shen Zhen would arrange them.

Next, Chen Ling left the market with his family, following Shen Zhen.

The road had already returned to calm, but it became extremely cold. Many houses had been destroyed and were unrecognizable, indicating the intense battle from last night.

Occasionally, one or two scattered cultivators could be seen, being extremely cautious.

There were also some patrolling disciples.

Among these patrolling disciples, there were some disciples wearing gray robes.

According to Shen Zhen's introduction, these were disciples of the Metallurgy Alliance.

From Shen Zhen's tone, Chen Ling could tell that he didn't seem to have a good impression of these disciples of the Metallurgy Alliance.

Before long, they arrived at the entrance of the market and were stopped by disciples inspecting at the entrance.

From their attire, they were actually disciples of the Metallurgy Alliance.

"This friend, we are disciples of the Qin family!"

Shen Zhen smiled and bowed his hand towards the leading disciple.

"There are orders from above to thoroughly check everyone!"

The disciple glanced at everyone and said indifferently.

In his tone, he didn't take the Qin family seriously at all.

Shen Zhen hurriedly took out more than ten spirit stones from his storage bag and secretly handed them to him.

The disciple, who originally had a fierce and evil look, immediately showed a smile upon seeing the spirit stones. He waved his hand and let them go.

"Ah! Although the Wang family managed to protect the Jinshan market this time, the disciples of the Metallurgy Alliance and several other foreign Foundation Building families, these people don't seem to be good. I hope they don't bring trouble to us!"

After leaving the market, Shen Zhen shook his head and whispered to Chen Ling.

Chen Ling also felt helpless.

After finally moving into the market and enjoying a period of peace, a war broke out in less than a year.

From the journey they had just taken, he could feel that the situation in the market would become even more complicated in the future.

Qingyang Sect, the Wang family, the Metallurgy Alliance, Foundation Building families, various forces were becoming more and more mixed, and no one could predict what would happen in the future.

However, no matter what, as long as they were careful, they would pay attention to everything they needed to.

Give him a few more years of peace, and he would be able to reach Foundation Building, which would give him the ability to protect himself!

Shen Zhen's face showed some worry, and he didn't say much anymore.

Everyone quickened their pace.

...

They arrived at the area where the Qin family resided.

The scene in front of Chen Ling surprised him once again.

He originally thought that many people from the Qin family had moved to the Wang family market, so there would definitely be a lot of vacant houses.

Who would have thought that there were still people living in those houses ahead.

"Ah! This time, eight Foundation Building families came with the Metallurgy Alliance to assist the Wang family. We gave half of our living space to the Luo family."

"I just hope that the war will end soon, and they can leave as soon as possible!"

Shen Zhen sighed helplessly.

The entire spiritual land of the Qin family was forcibly divided in half like this.

But this was an order from the Wang family, and the Qin family didn't dare to disobey.

Fortunately, the half of the spiritual land occupied by the Qin family had relatively abundant spiritual energy.

Next, Shen Zhen led Chen Ling and the others to a spacious courtyard on the right side of the Qin family's main courtyard.

Although it didn't have the same antique charm as the Qin family's main courtyard, it was much better compared to the small courtyard where they lived in the market.

The spiritual energy here was several times more abundant, and the area was three to four times larger.

There was also a defensive formation.

He Xiu Yun and the others were quite satisfied with this place.

Afterwards, Chen Ling asked Shen Zhen to arrange a place for Chu Gui to live next to their courtyard.

Shen Zhen nodded and asked Qin Tong to take Chu Gui to find a house.
