Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 190 - 129 Linglong Divine Palace

Chapter 190: Chapter 129 Linglong Divine Palace

Three months passed in a flash.

After a bout of spring rain, Jiuhe City, sprawling over thousands of acres, finally acquired a touch of antiquity.

Yet it still revealed its nature as a newly built city.

Yao Yi sat in the tallest pavilion on the city wall, positioned by the window, ever-watchful of his surroundings.

It was not the enemy he was guarding against, but the rain.

Spring rains were persistent, once they began, they could last for days.

He glanced at the command on the table and relayed today’s instructions, “The Lord commands, no rain today!”

“As soon as any rain clouds appear, disperse them quickly!”

Upon receiving the order, the others hurriedly went to prepare.

This Yao Yi was the youth Chen Qing had previously spotted while patrolling the surroundings.

Ultimately, when faced with Chen Qing’s grand army, he chose to surrender.

After all, this land originally belonged to them, he was merely the first to discover it.

After joining Tie Liu Valley, because he possessed a Grass Spirit Butterfly, he gained Wei Qingchen’s favor and was promptly brought here, becoming a small Hall Master of the Spiritual Department in Tie Liu Valley.

He was in charge of over thirty acres of spirit fruit trees, and incidentally supervised the weather.

Whether it rained each day and how much was determined entirely by Chen Qing’s commands.

Without his command, not a drop of rain was to fall; if there was such a command, even under a clear sky, cultivators with Rain Gu had to be summoned to bring forth rain.

Upon arriving here, Yao Yi was immediately astounded by this city.

The growth rate of the spiritual medicine here far exceeded that of the outside world.

The control over rain and clear skies was stringent.

Typically, rain orders were issued only at night, rain during the day was generally prohibited.

After experiencing these strict regulations, Yao Yi didn’t feel stifled, but rather, he felt this was how it should be, this was the true Immortal Phenomenon.

How much rain should fall and when, all needed to be meticulously precise.

This was what a powerful force should embody!

This is what a cultivator was meant to do.

Heaven and Earth were at my command, Heaven and Earth were for my use.

Thinking this, his admiration for the ruler of this place grew even more profound.

Just as he was preparing to head out for an inspection, he spotted a black cloud rolling in from the distance.

“What’s going on, there’s no rain permitted today, so why is there a black cloud, go investigate who’s casting spells!”

The scouts swiftly returned with their report: “Reporting, Lord, no one is conjuring wind and rain, it is a natural phenomenon.”

Yao Yi immediately commanded, “Stir the wind, raise a strong wind, and blow the clouds elsewhere!”

“Letting this rain fall will cost a salary deduction!”

“Quickly, have the Wind Hall disperse the dark clouds!”

Only after managing his responsible spirit orchard, by April, the spirit fruits were already bountiful and soon ripe.

If he remembered correctly, these fruit trees had been planted not more than three months ago, not only did they immediately begin to flower and bear fruit, but in just three months, they were already nearing maturity.

Having managed his Spiritual Field and handed over duty to the Deputy Hall Master, he was about to stroll through the market.

Just upon arriving at the market, he was met with the clamor coming from the city gate, “What a massive turtle!”

“Is that the Foundation Establishment demon?”

“Mr. Mei is truly impressive, he actually subdued a Foundation Establishment demon!”

Yao Yi, curious to witness the spectacle, arrived at the sides of the street, watching Mei Zuochen as he rode confidently at the front, while a massive captive cart following held an enormous old turtle.

This old turtle appeared over ten feet long, at the moment confined, bloodied within the cage, staring ahead expressionlessly.

Yao Yi couldn’t help thinking that had he chosen resistance at that time, this would likely have been his consequence.

The Demon Clan truly did not know their limits, to confront the Grand Army head-on was sheer folly!

Crowds of family members and children from the twenty-one clans moved closer, wanting to get a better look; in their minds, Foundation Establishment was regarded as a lofty existence.

Ordinarily, it was hard to encounter one, and even when they did, it demanded reverent obeisance.

Never would they have imagined seeing one today, shackled in a cage, free for their viewing.

“Our Tie Liu Valley is truly formidable!”

“Mr. Mei is so capable. They say Mr. Mei is about to achieve Foundation Establishment!”

“As capable as Mr. Mei is, achieving Foundation Establishment should be no problem at all!”

Listening to these praises, Mei Zuochen was also delighted within, with such a grand victory, the triumph was exhilarating, even his horse’s hooves picked up in speed.

Imprisoning the old turtle and locking it in the Jiuhe City jail, he then proceeded to the City Lord’s Mansion to pay respects to Chen Qing.

Upon reaching the City Lord’s Mansion, he didn’t find Chen Qing. Asking the gate guards, he learned that Chen Qing went to the fields.

Mei Zuochen hurriedly made his way to the fields and finally saw Chen Qing flipping through a thick book under a Crystal Pear Tree.

“Lord, thankfully, I succeeded in capturing that Foundation Establishment turtle demon!”

Chen Qing nodded with a smile, standing to say, “Hmm, very good.”

“Was it captured alive?”

Mei Zuochen clasped his hands and replied, “By your command, captured alive.”
