Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 339 - 207: I Have an Immortal Gourd
Chapter 339 -207: I Have an Immortal Gourd
Certainly, here’s the translated text:
The Death Realm was always shrouded in darkness, only faintly illuminated by the flickering phosphorescence.
Thirty-two docks had squads dispatching to attack the surrounding soldiers.
Yet under Chen Qing’s vast numerical advantage, they could only retreat and defend the docks, unable to interfere with Lu Shenglong’s siege on Heavenly Official City.
The strategy of dock-chaining was quite effective against enemies two to three times their size, allowing them to hold out for a long time.
Xu Yaofeng and his troops had been holding Fengdu for almost two months, unable to be breached by Ji Dang.
Chen Qing, riding his Green Bull atop a dock, estimated the remaining garrison, just four or five hundred soldiers.
With his army of thirty-six hundred pressing in, they started to falter, unable to withstand their assault.
Chen Qing observed the Dragon Cavalry and noted their combat power was mediocre during this siege.
They were, of course, far superior to ordinary cultivators, for the Dragon Cavalry could fly freely, disregarding the terrain.
Unlike mortal battlefields, the impact of speed was negligible for cultivators.
The Dragon Cavalry could charge purely due to their incredible defense.
With the superb physical bodies of beasts and the Xuanjia Gu, they could endure the assault of flying swords and magic and break through.
Similar to mortal cavalry, they excelled in open-field battles, were competent in sieges, but relatively weaker compared to the field.
Their greatest advantage was the ability to launch long-distance raids, maintaining peak combat readiness by the stamina of their mounts.
Everywhere the battlefield was ablaze, with multicolored magic lighting up the darkness like fireworks, red, green, and blue lights spread in all directions, shining like the Milky Way.

Roars of explosions, the sounds of sparks flying, and the howling of thunder all merged into one.
And at the front gates of Heavenly Official City, Lu Shenglong was leading his Dragon Cavalry and regular soldiers, fiercely holding the gate.
Lu Shenglong had a spectral dragon elephant lingering over him, protecting him, deflecting the barrage of flying swords from the city gate with resounding bangs upon his body.
From Heavenly Official City, numerous small ports opened in all directions, releasing a vast number of flying swords, spreading out around the thirty-two docks.
Chen Qing personally witnessed a soldier under his command being instantly hacked to pieces by an encirclement of over thirty flying swords.
Chen Qing glanced towards Heavenly Official City; such cities usually contained a Heavenly Observation Mirror, allowing them to see outside, and with the Black Building Stone throughout the city to block detection, no information could be gathered on what was inside.
Thus, the sword cultivators inside relied on this to collaborate, controlling flying swords to remotely cooperate and eliminate the attackers.
“The Death Realm city, indeed extraordinary, unlike the pretentious cities of the human world.”
As a large number of flying swords flew out from Heavenly Official City, swiftly spreading in all directions, it only took a few moments before Chen Qing noticed the sword assault had suddenly stalled.
“Hahaha, our people have also entered the city!”
Riding his Green Bull, he moved toward Su Yi behind Lu Shenglong, asking, “Su Yi, use your Hundred-mile Eye to look, where are those General Wei outside.”
Su Yi immediately understood, looked around, and quickly reported to Chen Qing, “Zhang Can and Yan Bailiang should both be in the city!”
Chen Qing was overjoyed, “If it were just one, there might still be a risk, but with both Zhang Can and Yan Bailiang inside, it’s certainly secured!”
Yan Bailiang had cut himself nine times, his Dao Foundation was superb, and his strength formidable, definitely enough to succeed.
“Lu Shenglong, launch a full assault on the gate and join forces with Zhang Can and Yan Bailiang inside!”
Lu Shenglong raised his spear and shouted, “Yes, Lord Wen!”
Thus, Lu Shenglong only needed to work with Zhang Can and Yan Bailiang from inside and outside, and they could smoothly capture Heavenly Official City.
Lu Shenglong wielded a Dragon Pattern Long Spear, each strike hitting the gate like pounding against mountains and seas.
A large force of Dragon Cavalry surrounded them, using their strongest attack and conquest skills upon the gate.
For a time, the gate was like an anvil being hammered, sending out waves of resonance.
The outside docks, deprived of flying sword support from the city, became vulnerable, quickly falling under the onslaught of troops.
Once many docks were seized, a vast army began to amass before the city gates, and in an instant, the gate faced the assault of hundreds of flying swords.
Blade marks continuously appeared on the gates, and after a full two hours of pounding, the gates finally collapsed with a thunderous crash.
Lu Shenglong rejoiced, immediately waving his hand, shouting, “Dragon Cavalry, charge with me!”
Just as Chen Qing thought they were about to capture this Heavenly Official City, he noticed that Lu Shenglong and a dozen others, who had just rushed in, were washed out by the river of azure water spilling from within.
Lu Shenglong, washed out by the river, glanced intently at the water, “Flowing Mountain Water!”
“This is Flowing Mountain Water, each drop weighing thousands of pounds!”
“It’s Xiao!”
Xiao was someone’s name, his name was only one word, Xiao.
Chen Qing also tilted his head slightly, Flowing Mountain Water?
Ancient Family, Spiritual Treasure Family?
Amid the constant flow of water, a young man in a green robe, with sleeves flowing, piloted a small boat, holding a treasure gourd glowing with green light, and slowly emerged, standing in the center of the city gate.
