Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 402 - 237: Advancing East and West, The Northern Expedition! The Northern Expedition!
Chapter 402 -237: Advancing East and West, The Northern Expedition! The Northern Expedition!
The duration of this war exceeded everyone’s imagination.
Wei Qingchen and Xu Yaofeng had been stationed on the outskirts for three days, while Xuan Mang and Lu Shenglong had been continuously hunting.
Everyone felt immensely exhausted because the war had already lasted for three days.
The Undying Dragon Cavalry launched a surprise attack from beneath the Death Sea, breaking through the last layer of the earth’s surface, causing a massive number of Rat Demons to fall into the Death Sea, where the Power of Death corroded their Divine Souls, eradicating them completely.
Under the command of two generals of Feng Qiwu, the Rat Demons gradually organized a counterattack, attempting to capture the Undying Dragon Cavalry.
The battlefield became chaotic, with some Rat Demons managing to grab members of the Undying Dragon Cavalry, and a large number of Rat Demons swarmed them, tearing them into pieces and placing them in dozens of boxes before sinking them into the Death Sea.
The Undying Dragon Cavalry, relying on their Undying Bodies, shattered every foothold of the Rat Demons step by step, sending them plunging into the Death Sea.
Deprived completely of their foothold, the Rat Demons had no choice but to flee, only to be slaughtered by the Dragon Cavalry hunting on the outskirts and the Jiguang Sect members.
Meanwhile, in the Death Sea, the two Kings continued to battle fiercely.
After three days of fierce fighting, neither managed to inflict the slightest injury on the other, but Chen Qing, relying on his status as a Grandmaster, had already destroyed three of Feng Qiwu’s spirit Gu.
Phoenix Wing Gold Mace, Holy Fire Order, Flame Sword.
The spirit Gu could be extinguished.
Chen Qing endured an attack from Daoist Shasheng with two hundred years of cultivation, which cost the Dragon Sparrow Sword twenty years of Life Span.
By constantly grinding down Feng Qiwu’s weapons, Chen Qing became more and more adept.
First, he aimed to remove the claws and fangs of Feng Qiwu, and then find a way to seal him once again.
Then, he planned to build a palace at the place where Feng Qiwu was sealed, living there regularly to ensure no one could release Feng Qiwu again.
His strategic intent became clear, making his moves much more decisive.
With single-minded focus, he aimed first to eliminate the opponent’s weapon-type Gu.
Thus, their battle, for the outcome of the war, was actually not critical.
The key to the victory of this war lay in the victory or defeat of the soldiers under their command.
Shen Changye hadn’t closed his eyes for three days and nights; he wasn’t particularly keen on killing the enemy.
It was simply because he and Ji Dang no longer had ties, and since Chen Qing had taken him in, he felt he should do something at this time.
Since he had come all this way, and since Ji Dang no longer wanted him, he would just follow Chen Qing.
At this time, it must be said that Chen Qing’s way of handling matters made him feel at ease.
There were no worries, and the world could find no fault in him.
It was all Ji Dang’s own choice, and it was none of his business.
If the opponents were humans, he might even feel nervous.
But since the enemies were Rat Demons, it made him feel much better, so he could take action.
So far, his subordinates had already slain over a hundred Rat Demons.
It must be said, Shen Changye’s capabilities were truly extraordinary; except for King-level opponents, he had virtually no rivals.
Under Feng Qiwu’s command, the two famed ancient generals, Sha Jingye and Shu Wanli, were no match for him.
By repelling Sha Jingye, he finally established meritorious service under Chen Qing, solidifying his position.
Despite their fatigue, Xu Yaofeng and Wei Qingchen were invigorated, believing that, given the current situation, victory in this war was only a matter of time.
The message sent by Nie Fei was crucial, as it essentially laid Feng Qiwu’s cards on the table against them.
Sha Jingye stood on the last piece of land, glanced around,
His stature was exceedingly tall, reaching over two zhang in height, making him appear like a giant among the Rat Demons.
Bare-chested, revealing skin as yellow and rocky as stone.
When he spoke, his voice always buzzed, “Shu Wanli, the plan is exposed. Continuing will only result in total annihilation!”
Shu Wanli, a Rat Demon with a little goatee, angrily said, “I know!”
“It must have been Qingxu, who dispatched the Undying Dragon Cavalry, to find out our details!”
Shu Wanli replied, “It seems now that defeating Qingxu in one battle is no longer possible; let’s retreat.”
“Preserve our strength and look for another opportunity!”
Sha Jingye raged, “But letting Chaotian City fall into their hands, is such a good chance to be wasted?”
Shu Wanli said, “We’ve already killed over a thousand enemies; what more do you want?”
“The plan now is to use the Demon Summoning Banner to command the Demon Clan across the world to enter the Death Realm and support the king!”
“With our current forces, a direct confrontation isn’t in our favor!”
Sha Jingye angrily said, “Alright, pull back!”
“You go first, I’ll cover the retreat!”
Shu Wanli immediately sounded the withdrawal, leading a large number of Rat Demons to flee into the pre-dug tunnels, using the earth escape method to retreat. freewёbnoνel.com
Seeing this, Shen Changye wouldn’t let it go, “Can’t let the tiger return to the mountain, chase them!”
Shen Changye immediately rushed forward, only to see Sha Jingye tremble all over, punching the ground and turning the Rat Demons’ last campground into heaps of yellow sand.
Sha Jingye also transformed into yellow sand and escaped, revealing nothing but the continuously roiling Death Sea.
Shen Changye quickly halted, looking towards the tunnel Sha Jingye blasted open, amidst which the water of the Death Sea surged unceasingly and poured in.
Xu Yaofeng also arrived with his men, standing atop a cliff, looking ahead, “It seems Feng Qiwu had already prepared an escape route.”
Wei Qingchen said, “Someone who contended for the throne three hundred years ago couldn’t be so easily dealt with.”
“After contemplating for over three hundred years in the Death Sea, there was no way he’d take unnecessary risks, planning several steps ahead, expecting defeat before engaging.”
