Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 482 - 275: Kings’ Alliance

```

Located in the Death Realm, Chen Qing personally inspected the construction of the river.

The blueprint was drawn by Su Yi, dividing the river into a total of one thousand and ninety-two sections with separate dams to cut off the Death Sea.

Thus, even if one section of the river collapsed, it would not affect Quantai City.

And around Quantai City, there were six rivers channeling the waters of the Death Sea; even if one river encountered a problem, Quantai would still be surrounded by the Death Sea.

This was an enormous project spanning hundreds of thousands of miles, requiring countless manpower.

Fortunately, the cultivators here were all in the Ghost Face Realm, making construction much faster than ordinary cultivators.

Those responsible for the construction were disciples from the defeated side; the Nanli army was sent by Chen Qing to collect ghosts in exchange for merit.

The prolonged warfare had previously left the Death Realm in chaos, causing many areas along the edges to be teeming with ghosts.

While Chen Qing and Ji Dang had discovered some, many still remained, and now, they became Chen Qing’s private property to reward his officers and fallen soldiers’ orphans.

Chen Qing solved the problem of Gu Butterfly Transformation for low-level cultivators, while Chen Dan resolved the cultivation issues of the low-level cultivators.

So, joining the Feather King Army practically guaranteed reaching the Mystic Gate Realm.

Six months earlier, Xuan Mang led a thousand Mystic Gate Realm warriors and one hundred sixty Dragon Cavalry riders back to the human world.

Su Yi returned to the human world with eight hundred Mystic Gate Army soldiers.

Ting Yun assembled the Sea Clan army again, stationing them in the South Sea on Chen Qing’s orders.

Everything was going smoothly, except for ongoing negotiations over a twenty-percent share, causing prolonged talks among the Nine Nations of Nanli.

Chen Qing was not in a hurry, thinking, you can take your time; I’ll start cultivating first.

The longer you drag it out, the more I have my way.

The negotiations lasted three years until the kings could no longer bear it.

Su Yi would always say whenever something came up, "This matter requires reporting to my king; as a humble chancellor, I cannot decide!"

In the end, Chen Qing had to personally attend the negotiation, delaying as much as possible, yet knowing he could not go too far, he agreed to send a divine image to the human world to show up in the meeting.

At the foot of Longevity Mountain, the kings gathered, and Su Yi began presiding over the ritual, inviting Chen Qing to come.

The kings sat in the temple at Longevity Mountain’s foot, listening to the outsiders requesting a divine image of Chen Qing to descend.

King Lin glanced over, "Ha, Water King, look, what a grand display from Prince Wen!"

"To have a divine image descend and to have eight hundred Mystic Gate Realm and a hundred Dragon Cavalry line up in welcome!"

"Your Water Country, even if you exhaust all national resources, probably couldn’t find so many Mystic Gate Realm, right?" frёeωebɳovel.com

The Water King sneered, "They’re just Mystic Gate Realm; if he wants to ride over me, let his Wen Country have a large number of Sky-reaching Realm, and then we’ll talk!"

Suddenly there was a commotion outside, and King Wu asked, "What’s going on?"

Someone reported, "Ting Yun from the Dragon Palace also wanted to greet Prince Wen but was stopped by the Water King’s men."

"Word is that Lord Xuan Mang has already gone over."

The Water King smirked coldly, "The fools from the Dragon Palace want to set foot on such a sacred place as Longevity Mountain? Such audacity!"

Shortly after, they saw Ting Yun, covered in blood, reach the foot of Longevity Mountain, washing blood off in a small river.

The Water King’s eyes widened, "How could this be, I brought thirty Sky-reaching Realm!"

The Water King’s servant hurried over, "Your Majesty, it’s not good; the thirty Sky-reaching Realm under you have been jointly slaughtered by Ting Yun and Xuan Mang!"

King Wu laughed heartily and said, "Water King, the Dragon Cavalry in the Death Realm, crushed an entire army with just three hundred riders; such prowess!"

"Now they have become Mystic Gate Realm, and they may not be weaker than the Sky-reaching Realm."

"Moreover, almost all the Sky-reaching Realm from Qilin Temple and Dao Origin Land are under Xuan Mang’s command; they do have Sky-reaching Realm to use."

"In the future, such matters should be avoided, Longevity Mountain is a place of tranquility, and too much blood will spoil it."

At this moment, outside, there suddenly came a sound like a tidal wave, "Long live Prince Wen!"

"We salute Prince Wen!"

Chen Qing, clad in the White Tiger King’s attire, stood at the foot of Longevity Mountain. He had not manifested in a divine image form at this moment but had transformed into a human appearance.

This was not difficult.

Chen Qing, accompanied by Su Yi and Xuan Mang, as well as Ting Yun, entered the temple and glanced at the seated kings.

Su Yi quickly stepped forward and moved an unoccupied royal seat to the opposite of King Wu, placing it in the first right-hand seat.

Previously, when attending the kings’ alliance, he was not entitled to sit, and Chen Qing’s throne was always positioned last. Now that Chen Qing arrived as the rightful sovereign, he naturally had the confidence.

Chen Qing surveyed the kings inside the temple: King Wu was experienced, King Lin was shrewd, King Yan was gloomy, King Tie was iron-blooded, King Ye was enthusiastic, while King Li and You King only smiled.

Only the Water King looked defiant.

Except for the King of Qi, who was still a child.

A nation doomed to fall is bound to have a monster.

He deserved his nation’s downfall!

Chen Qing first approached King Wu, bent over, and cupped his hands, "Son-in-law greets the father-in-law!"

King Wu revealed a satisfied smile, then instantly chided, "Prince Wen, this is the kings’ alliance, discussing issues concerning the whole of Nanli. Family matters will be addressed back home!"

Chen Qing laughed, "Yes, son-in-law understands!"

After speaking, Chen Qing went to sit opposite King Wu.

King Wu spoke, "Since everyone is here, let’s start the feast first."
