Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 344: Subjugating Chu Ge
Cui Hong first smiled bitterly, and then told Ning Fa roughly what had happened to them in the past half month.

Not long after the two teams set out, Duanmu Ling saw that the people from Yongze Oasis had not made any moves, so she launched a tentative attack.

As a result, the progress was very smooth, and Duanmu Ling commanded a large-scale attack.

However, after entering deep into the heart of Nagase Oasis, they suffered a head-on blow.

The ambushes set up by the Mo, Hu, and Wen families included a large number of self-destructive puppets, and even a few puppets that had reached the second level.

The large army led by Duanmu Ling suffered a great loss as a result. One foundation-building cultivator was killed on the spot, and nearly 20% of the Qi training disciples died.

But those three suffered greater damage.

After all, there was an absolute gap in strength between the two sides, and three foundation-building cultivators and a large number of clansmen were killed in the battle.

Afterwards, the three families retreated all the way to the Tengyan volcano.

If we only hear this, then Duanmu Ling and others are making very smooth progress.

As long as we capture the Tengyan volcano, we can declare the success of the capture of the Black Flame Desert.

But the problem now is that the Tengyan volcano is now a very tough nut to crack.

The three families seemed to have been prepared and had already set up a defensive formation called the [Fengdu Tianyang Formation] on the Tengyan Volcano.

And those three families received support from the Black Spirit Church.

A Black Spirit Church venerable at the Fake Dan realm came with six or seven followers at the Foundation Establishment level to provide support.

Duanmu Ling and others also tried to attack this defensive formation, but they failed after several attempts, and even a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building died unfortunately.

Because the formation is based on the Tengyan volcano, its power is extremely strong.

Moreover, the monks of the Black Spirit Church have strange magical powers and are very powerful, which makes Cui Hong and other monks in the middle stage of foundation building feel frightened.

That cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building died at the hands of a cultivator from the Black Spirit Church.

So even though there is only this one Tengyan volcano left at the moment, it would be very difficult to conquer it, and it would require a huge price to pay.

But we can't just leave Tengyan Volcano alone, because this volcano can be said to be the most valuable existence in the Black Flame Desert.

An extremely precious third-grade [Purple Glass Gold Stone] spiritual ore vein, as well as several second-grade top-quality spiritual ore veins, are all in this volcano.

It can be said that the Tengyan Volcano was at least half of the reason why Duanmu Ling chose to conquer the Black Flame Desert.

Ning Fa nodded suddenly, and finally understood why Duanmu Ling looked worried just now.

Because she must conquer the volcano as soon as possible, otherwise the development progress will lag behind others.

According to Cui Hong, Duanmu Ling was planning a general attack, so he called back the two teams of monks who were sent to other oases in order to concentrate their forces.

Ning Fa chatted with Cui Hong for a few more words and then stood up to say goodbye.

He went outside and found a vacant tent to rest. Then he pondered for a moment, then moved his lips slightly and whispered a word.

In a tent hundreds of feet away, Chu Ge, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and then he hurriedly got up and left.

"Greetings, Senior Ning." Chu Ge hurried over and bowed to Ning Fa.

Ning Fa looked at him with a smile, then snapped his fingers and a white pill bottle flew in front of Chu Ge.

"This is a bottle of Yunxin Dan, which should be very helpful to you now." Ning Fa said with a faint smile.

"Yun Xin Dan!" A look of surprise flashed across Chu Ge's eyes.

He was very familiar with this famous elixir that could improve the cultivation of cultivators in the late stage of Qi training, but he could only sigh in despair at its high price.

After a slight hesitation, he accepted the pill bottle and said respectfully, "Thank you, Senior Ning, for the reward." Seeing that this person did not refuse hypocritically, Ning Fa smiled even more and asked, "Fellow Daoist Chu, you don't seem to be a cultivator from our Huayu Sect. Can you tell me about your origins?"

Chu Ge did not hesitate too much and explained in detail his background and why he was able to join Duanmu Ling's team this time.

This person seemed to know that his chance was coming, so he answered Ning Fa's questions very carefully.

After listening to it, Ningfa couldn't help but become more interested in him.

It turned out that this person was actually a martial arts genius in the mortal world. At only twenty years old, he had already cultivated to the highest level of mortal martial arts - the realm of the innate master.

Later, he became involved in a dynastic struggle in a small country where he lived, supporting a prince in his fight for the throne.

Originally, with the support of this martial arts master, the prince was about to seize the throne.

However, the other prince invited a cultivator to help.

Although that person was just a Qi training cultivator, his methods were far beyond the ability of ordinary people to resist, not even a congenital master could resist.

In the end, Chu Ge escaped with serious injuries, and all his relatives were slaughtered by the prince.

Chugo could only go into exile in other countries.

In order to take revenge, he also wanted to become an immortal cultivator.

So he traveled all over the world, looking for the immortal fate.

But it is not so easy to seek immortal fate.

He searched for several years in vain, and just when he was about to despair, he saved an old Taoist priest by chance.

The old Taoist was a casual cultivator, and before his death he passed on his legacy to Chu Ge.

Chu Ge was also very lucky to have spiritual roots, but his qualifications were very ordinary four spiritual roots, which are more commonly known as pseudo spiritual roots.

Afterwards, he came to Baiyufang City and became a casual cultivator, relying on entering the mountains to hunt monsters, or looking for some spiritual herbs and objects to exchange for spirit stones.

The reason why he was able to join Duanmu Ling's team this time was because of the bald man Feng Jue.

Half a year ago, Chu Ge encountered two robbery cultivators in the Bailu Mountains.

Although the two men were at a higher level than him, Chu Ge was able to kill them with his exquisite secular martial arts and fearless fighting style.

This scene happened to be seen by Feng Jue who was passing by, and he became interested in Chu Ge.

Because according to what he himself said, he was also a congenital master in the secular martial arts world before he practiced Taoism.

So he gave Chu Ge this opportunity to follow Duanmu Ling into the battle.

If he can survive in the end, he can let Chu Ge enter the Huayu Sect directly.

It has always been Chu Ge’s dream to be able to enter a large sect like Huayu Sect.

However, as a person with fake spiritual roots, it was simply a luxury for him to join the sect through normal channels.

So he agreed without hesitation.

Ning Fa listened and nodded.

He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said, "After this southern expansion is over, are you willing to work for me?"

Hearing these long-awaited words, even Chu Ge, who was usually calm, couldn't help but feel his heart beating like a drum and excitement flashed across his face.

He immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you, Senior Ning, for your kindness. I will never refuse even if it means death."
