Longevity Begins With Gu Refining

Chapter 25: Finally, I have a little bit of power to protect myself.

Halfway there, Yu Qingshuang and Xie Dayou, who had recovered from his injuries, leaped through the trees and arrived in front of Chen Qing. "Hurry up and get your things. Those Lotus Flower Cave disciples haven't left yet."

Chen Qing returned to his cave, packed up his things, and asked Wang Ye and Li He to help move them.

He had nothing to hide here. The spirit stones were hidden in the spiritual plant elder's house. That room was now his personal room, and he had the key.

He carried the mask with him, so he didn't need to worry.

Back in his new cave, except for the spirit beast cave, Yu Qingshuang had already arranged the furniture. It was barely livable.

Putting down his things, Chen Qing said, "Senior Brother Wang, you have some fighting power. Tell Senior Brother Zhou Ke to stay with me for a few days."

Wang Ye cupped his hands. "Okay, I'll go call Senior Brother Zhou!"

In the evening, Zhou Ke and Wang Ye returned. Wang Ye had brought a few cranes with him to help them escape.

Chen Qing sat in the lobby of his new cave, looking outside through the open door. On the other side of the long iron chain bridge, Yu Qingshuang sat on the bridge with her sword, constantly on guard.

The night gradually deepened, but Chen Qing didn't feel sleepy at all.

The three Red-crowned Cranes that were as tall as two people were also eating. Their legs kept moving, and it was clear that they were uneasy.

He instinctively felt that the sect was being extra careful with his protection. At night, he saw a cloud of fog flying over a mountain in front of him.

It should be Feng Qi.

The sky gradually brightened, and the night passed. Chen Qing was still a little confused.

Was it over?

At this time, he suddenly saw Yu Qingshuang move. She got up and walked to the other side of the bridge, watching for a long time.

Noises came from the bottom of the mountain. "Fire!"

"Someone set it on fire!"

Yu Qingshuang watched for a while, then crossed the bridge. "Junior Brother Chen, if an enemy comes here later, fight with me and leave on the crane!"

Chen Qing was a little moved, but he nodded decisively. "Okay!"

He had almost no fighting power now. Staying here would only add to the chaos.

After half an hour, Chen Qing saw Yu Qingshuang want to draw her sword several times, but she stopped in the end.

Chen Qing looked up at the top of the iron bridge. Feng Qi's figure was gone.

It seemed that Feng Qi had made a move.

This group of scum from the Lotus Flower Cave actually knew a bit of strategy.

First, they set a fire at the foot of the mountain to attract the attention of Carefree Mountain. Then, they sent a small team to ambush them.

As the new owner of the Grass Spirit Butterfly and with a low cultivation base, he was naturally the target of the enemy forces.

Unfortunately, Feng Qi still saw through it.

In the past, Chen Qing would occasionally imagine what it would be like if he had chosen the Sword Vermin.

After practicing with Yu Qingshuang, he no longer had this idea.

How could a few days of practice compare to more than ten years of hard work?

From time to time, the sound of a sharp sword slicing through the sky could be heard. After a few dozen breaths of time, there was no more sound.

On this day, Chen Qing was not on duty. Instead, he was holed up in his cave abode. He could vaguely hear his fellow disciples pursuing the disguised Lotus Flower Cave disciples from afar.

The next day, when Chen Qing went to work, Yu Qingshuang accompanied him to prevent the people of Lotus Flower Cave from harboring evil intentions.

Yu Qingshuang said, "After a while, it should be much better."

Chen Qing said, "Is it because Lotus Flower Cave failed this time?"

Yu Qingshuang nodded. "A sect needs to have enough strength to have people like you."

"And yesterday, my Carefree Mountain has already proved that we have this qualification."

"Even if Senior Brother Ye is not here, we can still protect the production type disciples."

"Do you still want to practice swordsmanship today?"

Chen Qing said, "Of course."

Swordsmanship had to be done step by step.

Hearing that Ye Yuntian would be returning in a few days, Chen Qing originally wanted to wait for Ye Yuntian's return at the market square at the foot of the mountain, and then hold a welcoming dinner for him at Bright Moon Restaurant.

Unfortunately, the situation was not very stable now, so he gave up on this idea.

After dealing with the injuries of the War Hall and Shadow Hall disciples, he gained a wave of reputation among the Carefree Mountain disciples.

Chen Qing returned to his cave abode and looked at the delightful beauty standing guard outside his cave abode. Chen Qing cursed the Lotus Flower Cave inwardly. These damned people would seek their own deaths sooner or later.

Chen Qing removed the wine gourd from his waist and drank the last mouthful. He sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

When he opened his eyes after cultivating, he realized that these scums had caused him to lose his spirit ginseng wine. They really deserved to die.

When he went out, Chen Qing could always see mottled bloodstains all over the sect. As time passed, the bloodstains gradually turned black and disappeared.

When the bloodstains disappeared, everyone gradually returned to normal.

Chen Qing, in the name of inspecting the spirit plant garden, carefully searched around the Iron Tree and conveniently plucked a Iron Tree Pistil to study its medicinal properties.

Chen Qing felt that his' cheap hands' were becoming more and more serious.

After returning to the quiet room in the spirit plant hall, Chen Qing fed Jiu Bao a Iron Tree Pistil and began to cultivate.

After he finished cultivating, he checked on Jiu Bao's situation.

One Iron Tree Pistil could increase his progress by 7 points.

He did not need too much, but it was a pity that this Iron Tree Pistil was quite expensive. One Iron Tree Pistil sold for 13 low-grade spirit stones outside.

"About 172 low-grade spirit stones. Tomorrow, I'll ask Senior Sister to help me buy some from the market."

After feeding the Iron Tree Pistil for five days, Jiu Bao's progress had risen to 56 points.

Hearing that Ye Yuntian and the rest had returned, Chen Qing took care of the spirit field and went off duty early. He waited not far behind the mountain gate.

In the evening, Chen Qing finally saw Ye Yuntian, who was on his way back.

"Junior Brother Chen, I put in a lot of effort this time!"

The surrounding disciples also said, "If you don't treat us to a drink at Bright Moon Restaurant, I'm afraid it won't be right."

Chen Qing said, "I was going to wait for Senior Brother at the market at the foot of the mountain. Unfortunately, it hasn't been very peaceful recently, so I waited here for Senior Brother."

"Senior Brother Ye, I've already arranged a welcome banquet at Bright Moon Restaurant. Let's go!"

A moment of indulgence.

In a drunken state, Chen Qing returned to his cave abode and closed the door. He looked at the palm-sized jade jar in his hand.

[Mortal-grade sword Gu]

Quality: Fourth Transformation

Lifespan: 12/42

Effect: Convert nine strands of spirit energy into one strand.

Growth requirement: Ancient sword remnant

Growth Progress: 41/100

Promotion requirements: Rank nine, one sword insect, three wisps of golden geng qi, one green snake gallbladder that is at least three hundred years old.

This Sword Insect was not as fat as the other two. Instead, it was extremely thin and had a sharp aura.

This is my first battle type Gu worm, I will have to rely on you to protect my life in the future.

He skillfully drew a blood rune on it, and the light silver sword insect flew into his hand.

Chen Qing finally felt a sense of security.

In the future, he would no longer be a production system cultivator who was at the mercy of others.

He had finally grasped a little bit of the ability to protect himself.

He put his two fingers together and a wisp of sword Qi appeared on his fingertips. He walked out of the cave and gently slashed at a nearby rock.

The gravel was easily cut apart like tofu with a knife. It was broken into two halves, and the cut surface was as smooth as a mirror.

"Truly amazing!"

"No wonder it's said that sword cultivators are the best at killing!"

It had just been contracted, and it already had such terrifying killing power, was the iron skin gu really useful?

He had to think of a way to get a fog Gu.

He was very clear about his advantages now. Sword skills and whatnot could not be compared to these people who had been immersed in the sword path for decades.

His advantage was in using strength to suppress others!

With the strength of a Gu worm, he could defeat ten people with strength alone!

New book on the road, looking for recommendations, bookmarks, monthly votes, all kinds of requests. Thanks to everyone, I will update at noon every day.
