Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 172 - 122: Cultivation Has Always Been a War (Super Long Chapter)_2
Chapter 172: Chapter 122: Cultivation Has Always Been a War (Super Long Chapter)_2
The entire Xuan Bird tribe was almost fully mobilized; if it weren’t for the Eight Tigers under Chen Qing borrowing many soldiers, the formation would have been even larger.
Walking into the City Lord’s Mansion, Xuanping had already bathed and burned incense, presented herself to heaven and earth, and informed All Gods, now holding a ritual in the Witch Temple.
Xuanping, dressed in priestess attire, possessed an unusual beauty, full of mystery.
“Respectfully implore Wudu Ming King, safeguard my martial fortune and prosperity!”
After finishing the last sentence, Xuanping just walked out the door, seeing Chen Qing leaning against the door, watching the spectacle.
“Now, you have become someone with a status, can’t you pay attention to your posture and appearance?”
...
Chen Qing casually said, “This stuff can’t kill anyone.”
Following Xuanping to the secret chamber specially prepared for her Foundation Establishment, Chen Qing looked around; the four rooms next to them contained a large quantity of Spirit Stone powder.
Chen Qing estimated it, figuring it couldn’t be less than ten thousand in quantity.
The walls were made of materials that isolate Spiritual Energy to prevent leakage; the concentration of Spiritual Energy here far exceeded the outside by dozens of times!
The Spiritual Energy even condensed into a mist visible to the naked eye.
In the center of the secret chamber, there was a Spirit Stone bed.
The entire bed was made of Spirit Stone; it was said that when ordinary people broke through, they would lie on it, wearing very little to ensure their body contact area was large enough.
No one knew how much Xuanping would wear during her breakthrough.
The Foundation Establishment tribulation was an inner tribulation, entering the Void Realm within the Gu, and heaven and earth would not bring down tribulations.
Chen Qing viewed the surroundings as if seeing a spirit stone mountain.
No wonder Foundation Establishment was so rare; even with Xuanping’s strength, it was taken this seriously for a breakthrough.
After another day of preparation, Xuanping finally began her Foundation Establishment. Chen Qing didn’t know what she was doing inside, only hearing the sound of clothes hitting the ground.
“Chen Qing, I’m about to begin Foundation Establishment.”
Chen Qing sat on the cushion at the door, “I know.”
“Hmm.” Xuanping’s voice came from the room.
After that, there was no more movement.
Chen Qing had initially thought he could witness Xuanping’s Foundation Establishment in person to accumulate some experience, but he ended up merely guarding the door, feeling quite frustrated.
What kind of experience could be accumulated from this?
At most, he could learn how to set up the room for Foundation Establishment and how to increase Spiritual Energy density.
Staying for a day, as night fell silent and darkly still.
Chen Qing, thinking it over, decided he should witness it personally to prepare for his future Foundation Establishment.
Glancing around, seeing no one and sensing the entire City Lord’s Mansion, apart from the outside being heavily guarded, he was the only person here.
Chen Qing got up, gently opened the door, and ten breaths later, he walked out of the room, telling himself he shouldn’t have gone in.
Damn it, she was even covered by a blanket!
Ah, spit, he meant how could he observe like this!
Two days later, Chen Qing sensed the room’s Spiritual Energy suddenly dropping rapidly. Xuanping was quickly absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Energy; he immediately got up and went to the four secret chambers connected to this place, urging the maidens guarding there to fan the air.
“Quick, fan the air, blow the Spiritual Energy inside!”
“Break the Spirit Stone, grind it into powder, sprinkle the powder inside!”
After nine times like this, Chen Qing was busy for the night, urging everywhere.
Just back outside the secret chamber, Chen Qing wiped the sweat from his forehead; this time, he truly broke a sweat.
As he turned around, he heard the door open and saw Xuanping smilingly looking at him, “Now, you can no longer beat me!”
“Heehee!”
Xuanping laughed with dazzling joy, as if she had encountered the happiest thing in her life.
Looking down, she saw Chen Qing’s sweaty head.
“What a fool!”
Rolling up her sleeves to wipe Chen Qing’s sweat, Xuanping jumped aside, “Now, do you want to try and see if you can beat me?”
Chen Qing shook his head, “Not interested, Foundation Establishment bullying people.”
Before Xuanping broke through Foundation Establishment, before Chen Qing’s Light Butterfly Harmonization, their strengths were similar.
Now with Chen Qing’s Light Butterfly Harmonized, and Xuanping’s successful Foundation Establishment, it was truly hard to say who was more powerful.
Xuanping moved a cushion next to Chen Qing, sat down, and began to say, “Let me tell you about my Foundation Establishment process.”
“It was a story about Chasing the Sun…”
“During the tribulation crossing, I saw giants chasing the sun, and I was one of the giants…”
“All the giants died while running, leaving only me, and not knowing what to do, I just kept chasing the sun.”
“Eventually, I died, and then I successfully broke through to Foundation Establishment.”

“Although Foundation Establishment only took three days, it felt like a long, long time.”
“It felt like a very long dream, and when I finally woke up, the first person I saw with my eyes was you.”
Chen Qing listened, bewildered, what kind of Foundation Establishment process was this?
Dying for the Dao?
During this period, all the Foundation Establishments of the Xuan Bird tribe, including those brought by the Great Witch and Xuan Cuo, came to Chen Qing, telling him about what they encountered during their Foundation Establishment.
There were all sorts, even one where someone, transformed into a scholar rushing for the imperial exams in the Void Realm.
In over a month, these narrations passed.
Having heard so much, Chen Qing also grasped the true meaning of Foundation Establishment, seeming to understand the true essence of the Lifebound Gu and the Dao.
Once comprehended, success followed.
Of course, each Gu, what each person realized could be completely different, yet equally successful.
Then what would his Light Gu scenario be like?
Seven days ago, Chen Qing had already successfully gained control over the troops of twenty-one tribes.
