Chapter 168: Chapter 168 Blood Refining Chapter Completed!


    However,


    When Gu Yang took over Huaining Prefecture, the other three prefectures did not experience such smooth proceedings.


    "Kill!"


    "Whoever first ascends this city will be richly rewarded!"


    Shi Zhen''s expression was cold as he looked at the majestic city walls in front of him and issued orders in a deep voice.


    Meanwhile, on the battlefield.


    The Guangyang Army was furiously besieging the city.


    Shi Zhen had already received news that Gu Yang had taken over the entire Huaining Prefecture, and the progress in the other two prefectures was also not slow.


    Only Yixing Prefecture was resisting particularly fiercely.


    Regarding this,


    Shi Zhen naturally hoped that he could capture Yixing Prefecture as quickly as possible.


    It was simple.


    He had originally been a general of the Divine Martial Army, and after Pei Jing''s downfall, he had shifted his allegiance to Gu Yang.


    Shi Zhen was very clear.


    For a defeated general like him, it was difficult to be heavily relied upon.


    The reason he could lead an army was that the Guangyang Prince had weak foundations, and there were no capable generals under his command, which was why there was an opportunity for him.


    But as the Guangyang Prince''s followers increased, the possibility of being heavily relied upon again diminished.


    Therefore,


    Shi Zhen must show that he had strong enough capabilities.


    Suppressing Yixing Prefecture


    was an opportunity.


    Just then, within the city, suddenly, signal arrows shot into the sky, and fireworks burst forth, visible even in daylight.


    "The Hidden Guard has succeeded!"


    Seeing the appearance of the signal arrows, Shi Zhen''s face lit up with joy.


    Before besieging the city, he had the Hidden Guard secretly infiltrate the city to find an opportunity to seize the city gates.


    Now that the signal arrows had been released, it was clear that the city gates had been successfully captured.


    Sure enough,


    as Shi Zhen''s thoughts concluded, he saw the tightly closed city gate slowly opening.


    Seeing this scene,


    Shi Zhen immediately spurred his horse into the battlefield, leading the army on a charge towards the city.


    —


    "Your offspring ''Gu Yang'' has killed *362 court soldiers!"


    "Your offspring ''Gu Yang'' has killed *36 Martial Artists in the Blood-Refining Realm!"


    "Under the command of your offspring ''Gu Yang,'' the army rolls forward unstoppable, with all sides of the court submitting to his power!"


    "Your offspring ''Gu Yang'' has subdued Huaining Prefecture, gaining great renown!"


    "Your offspring ''Gu Shengnan'' has purified her genetic traits, slightly enhancing her aptitude!"


    "Under the command of your offspring ''Gu Yang,'' the Guangyang Army has suppressed Datong Prefecture, greatly increasing its strength!"


    "Under the command of your offspring ''Gu Yang,'' the Guangyang Army has suppressed Yixing Prefecture, greatly increasing its strength!"


    ...


    It was just so!


    After glancing at his attribute panel.


    Gu Qingfeng continued to ponder over Martial Arts.


    ...


    Three days later.


    Gu Qingfeng opened his eyes.


    He looked at his attribute panel, now noticing some changes regarding the information of the Longevity Skills.


    ...


    Longevity Skills (Perfection, Longevity Level Two)!


    ...


    "Breakthrough!"


    "The second layer of the Longevity Skills is enough for perfect Blood Refining!"


    Gu Qingfeng wore a faint smile on his face.


    He had originally thought that creating the second layer of the Longevity Skills would take quite some time.


    But now.


    Gu Qingfeng realized.


    The reality was much better than he had anticipated.


    The battle in the Prefecture of Guangyang Prefecture gave him some unique insights; now that he came back to the Grinding Blade Hall for a period of seclusion, the Blood Refining Chapter of the Longevity Skills came naturally.


    Now.


    With the completion of the Blood Refining Chapter of the Longevity Skills, Gu Qingfeng stepped into the realm of Perfection.


    Ultimately.


    It was also because Gu Qingfeng had already walked this path; the Longevity Skills he created was nothing more than a replication of his original journey.


    Therefore.


    With the release of the Blood Refining Chapter of the Longevity Skills, Gu Qingfeng naturally reached Perfection.


    "But the Longevity Skills become increasingly difficult to create as one progresses; if one could use Upgrade Points to break limits and enhance, it would indeed save a lot of effort."


    "However, doing so would also lead to significant consumption of Upgrade Points, which might be somewhat uneconomical!"


    Creating the Longevity Skills, Gu Qingfeng proceeded step by step slowly.


    Yet the enhancement of his own strength could not slow down for even a moment.


    Even now, although Gu Qingfeng had the strength to reach the peak of the Nine States, in his view, it still always seemed insufficient.


    Next.


    Gu Qingfeng looked at the attribute panel again.


    Three days had passed.


    A large amount of text had refreshed on the attribute panel.


    All this information was related to Gu Yang.


    According to the attribute panel, after three days, almost the entire control of the Four Prefectures had fallen into Gu Yang''s hands; by doing so, he effectively managed the territories of Five Prefectures.


    Taishan County among the Twelve Prefectures.


    With Gu Yang being able to control the territories of Five Prefectures, he almost seemed to be on the verge of taking over the entire Taishan County.


    "Five Prefectures in Taishan County have already fallen into Yang''er''s hands; from this point, it seems Yang''er''s total control over Taishan County isn''t far off!"


    Gu Qingfeng secretly pondered.
