Long Qian's Night Visit
"That's true. This person is a genius when it comes to creating his own Gu Recipe. If our clan really intends to launch this plan, then this person is the only candidate."
Long Yuanshan tapped his fingers incessantly on the table, the tapping sound echoing throughout the room.
Finally, his fingers stopped, as if he had made a decision. His eyes hardened, and he said in a deep voice, "Since he is the most suitable candidate, if we miss this opportunity, the failure rate of launching this plan in the future will only be higher than today."
"Since that's the case, then we can't hesitate any longer; we have to take the gamble, even if we lose."
"If we don't have enough resources, we'll borrow them. Our clan will soon possess most of the Geng Metal Ore Vein, and we've also opened a trade route to the Far Western Lands. Plus, we have the Thatch Gu, a money-absorbing machine. We'll have a steady stream of wealth, and we'll recover quickly."
"Go ask him now and see how confident he is in modifying the Blood Dragon Battle Gu Recipe."
"If he succeeds, I will reward him with 200 million in contribution points, plus embroider a dragon for him!"
Long Yuanshan slammed a thick Gu Recipe on the table and pushed it in front of Long Qian.
Long Qian nodded, put away the Gu Recipe, and walked out the door.
Meanwhile, in a clean attic, Long Xuan was studying the tiny creature that wasn't even as tall as his own legs, touching the ten knives on which it grew, clearly fond of it.
Surprisingly, the naturally formed blade was quite sharp, easily cleaving through swords and blades of the Mortal Realm with a clean, even edge.
However, it's still far from being able to cut a hair in two, since it's currently just Spirit Insect, not Gu Insect.
Only after consuming a massive amount of Spirit Insect and transforming into a Gu Insect will its strength experience a qualitative leap.
However, the thought of turning it into Gu Insect gave Long Xuan a headache.
This guy's Gu Recipe is very special; you can fill in any ingredients, any one of them will work, and the more ingredients you fill in, the stronger it will be. However, the more materials you use, the lower the success rate will be.
For most people, this would be a long and difficult decision, a real dilemma of whether to prioritize stability or strength.
Given Long Xuan's ambition, he would naturally fill the container to the brim, the more materials the better. He would fill it with as many materials as there were in the world.
Anyway, he has a cheat code; he only needs to prepare one set of materials to create a Gu.
However, in the Gu World, a world where spiritual energy is depleted, most Spirit Insect have become extinct, making it impossible for him to realize his ambitions.
However, he didn't want to delay. After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to let Xiaoyue devour hundreds of thousands of materials for a while, and then use some means to send it back to the Spirit Insect realm after flying to the Spirit World, so that he could refine the Gu with more materials again.
He didn't know if there was a way to make Gu Insect degenerate into Spirit Insect in this world, but even if there wasn't, he had the ability to create one himself.
He had already realized that any ability you could imagine, no matter how bizarre or outrageous, could be realized in this world with 100% certainty, depending entirely on the price you were willing to pay.
Even if he let it devour hundreds of thousands of materials to make do for a while, that would still be an astronomical figure. He couldn't afford it even if he sold his blood or kidneys, without exposing those things that couldn't be exposed.
Wow, Gu Recipe with hundreds of thousands of ingredients, it's terrifying!
Anyone who sees this amount of material in Gu Recipe would be shocked. This isn't a Gu Recipe at all; it's clearly a book, a book with at least a million words, one that would take a very long time to read.
He was now in a real bind; how to amass so much wealth in such a short time was a huge problem for him.
This little thing is so expensive, it might as well just kill me.
Just as he was racking his brains, a knock on the door suddenly interrupted his thoughts.
"Long Xuan, are you asleep?"
Long Qian's voice came from outside the door.
He asked a pointless question; the lights were still on, so how could the person inside be asleep?
"I'm not asleep, please come in, senior!"
Long Xuan put away Xiaoyue, sat upright at the table, and looked towards the door.
Long Qian smiled and pushed open the door, then walked over and sat down opposite Long Xuan.
"Senior, what brings you here so late at night?" Long Xuan asked, puzzled.
"Hehe! It's getting late, so I'll keep it short. As the Earth Spiritual Power gradually thins in the Gu World, a massive amount of Spirit Insect materials have become extinct, causing many of our clan's Gu Recipe to become unusable."
"Therefore, our clan is preparing to launch a plan to replace all the materials used in the Blood Dragon Battle Gu that have become extinct with those that still exist in this world."
"Changing a Gu Recipe is no easy task. It requires countless experiments and trial and error, and the amount of materials consumed is beyond imagination."
"The Blood Dragon Battle Gu is one of our clan's strongest and most unique Gu Recipe. Once we successfully replace the extinction materials, our clan's overall combat power will experience a qualitative leap, and it's not impossible that we could even become the strongest clan in the Western Land."
"If you can successfully replace the materials that the Blood Dragon Battle Gu has become extinct, that would be a great service to our clan. The clan will allocate 200 million contribution points to you as a reward, plus a Hidden Dragon Tattoo."
"Take a look at this Gu Recipe. The materials that are extinct are circled on Gu Recipe. See how confident you are in replacing the circled materials."
Long Qian stated his purpose directly and pushed a Gu Recipe towards Long Xuan, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Long Xuan took the Gu Recipe Gu Recipe with a somewhat bewildered look, quickly glanced at it, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Good heavens, this Gu Recipe formula has a whopping ten thousand ingredients! You call this Gu Recipe? This is clearly a book!
When did he ever see Gu Recipe with such a large quantity of materials when he was in the Far Western Lands?
Even with all his supreme-grade Gu worm, he didn't use more than ten thousand materials, which is absolutely astonishing.
Without even thinking, just by looking at the quantity of materials, Long Xuan already knew that this Gu Recipe must be extremely terrifying.
How could Gu Recipe that could prompt the Western Land Long Family to modify so hastily not be terrifying?
They spared no effort to alter this Gu Recipe Gu Recipe, demonstrating just how powerful it was, so important that they were willing to go bankrupt for it.
"It's Gu Recipe with ten thousand different ingredients!" Long Xuan exclaimed in surprise.
"Only ten thousand materials? Calm down! Calm down! This is already considered a small amount for our clan."
Long Qian wore a smug look on his face and laughed, "My clan also has a unique and powerful Gu Recipe called ' Dragon Transformation Gu,' which requires a full one million kinds of materials. That's truly terrifying."
"The Blood Dragon Battle Gu can transform a person into a half-dragon, causing them to grow dragon thorns, a dragon tail, dragon scales, and many other physical characteristics of a dragon."
"Once a member of the Long Family's Gu Cultivator class becomes half-dragon, they will possess the power and defense of a dragon. Their combat strength will be ridiculously exaggerated, allowing them to easily fight opponents of higher levels and kill those of the same level as easily as killing chickens. One person can chase down and fight a group of opponents of the same level."
"It is precisely because the Blood Dragon Battle Gu is so terrifying that it requires ten thousand sets of materials to form the Gu."
"But the Blood Dragon Battle Gu is inferior to the Dragon Transformation Gu. The Blood Dragon Battle Gu can only achieve half-dragon transformation, while the Dragon Transformation Gu can enable the Long Family Gu to fully transform into a dragon, allowing humans to completely transform into a Divine Dragon, possessing the same combat power as Divine Dragon, or even stronger."
"Once a Gu cultivator of the Long Family transforms into a dragon, they are not only invincible against those of the same level, but also completely invincible within their entire realm. Whoever comes will die, and no matter how many of them come, they will all perish."
"No matter how many ants there are, how can they contend with Divine Dragon? This is true invincibility. It's because the Dragon Transformation Gu is far too Yu Chao that a million sets of materials are needed to limit it." Long Qian revealed a smug smile.
"However, the Dragon Transformation Gu eventually disappeared completely into the annals of history due to the widespread extinction of its materials, causing our clan to decline and lose all the glory of our ancestors."
"While it's possible to replace the materials used in the extinct Blood Dragon Battle Gu with other materials, the Dragon Transformation Gu can never reappear in the Gu World under any circumstances."
"Because refining the Dragon Transformation Gu requires precious Dragon Materials, and the Divine Dragon have been extinct for countless millennia."
"There are no Divine Dragon in this world, so the Gu Recipe for the Dragon Transformation Gu is now just a piece of waste paper, with no possibility of ever being restarted."
Long Qian looked regretful, extremely disappointed.
If all the Gu Recipe passed down from their ancestors could be reused, including the complete version of the Evil Dragon Emperor Eye, the Long Family wouldn't be stuck in this small place; they would have already swept through the entire Gu World.
No matter your clan or lineage, you must all kneel before the Long Family's Gu cultivators.
Upon hearing this, Long Xuan's lips twitched again. Gu Recipe requiring 10,000 materials wasn't even the limit; there was Gu Recipe with a million materials! This was outrageous! What kind of freak invented such a monstrous Gu Recipe?
This is outrageous! No wonder so many materials are needed to limit it. No wonder the Long Family is willing to pay any price to restart the Blood Dragon Battle Gu Recipe. The Gu Recipe powerful. The Lineage simply cannot resist such temptation and is willing to empty their coffers to restore the glory of the Blood Dragon Battle Gu.
What exactly is the background of this Long Family? How come their Gu Recipe formulas are all so outrageous? How much of it is unknown to them?
Fortunately, even the heavens couldn't stand it anymore and wiped out some of the materials for these heaven-defying Gu Recipe, resulting in the Lineage's strongest unique Gu Recipe being either abridged versions or completely unusable. Otherwise, this world simply wouldn't have room for this Lineage.
Who could defeat a combination of a Dragon Transformation Gu and the Complete Evil Dragon Emperor Eye? Just thinking about it made Long Xuan's scalp tingle and his whole body tremble. That kind of terrifying existence was simply too outrageous. Even he himself couldn't possibly be a match for it. Long Xuan couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
However, he quickly became excited; it was like someone offering him a pillow when he was about to fall asleep.
He had just been worrying about how to collect the hundreds of thousands of materials needed to refine the Blade Gu, but unexpectedly, someone delivered them to him the next second.
If researching Gu Recipe doesn't require any materials, then wouldn't all the materials the Lineage gives me for experimentation just go into my own pocket?
The resources required to study the Gu Recipe poison are enormous, so it's perfectly reasonable for me to want as much as I want.
Furthermore, since it's an experimental Gu Recipe, it's natural to collect different types of insects and experiment with them continuously. It's not unreasonable for me to want all kinds of insects, right?
So, does this mean that all I have to do is sit and do nothing, and my Lineage will collect all the materials I need to forge the Blade Gu?
Long Xuan's eyes gleamed with excitement as he thought about it.
The matter was unbelievably simple. He never expected that the hundreds of thousands of materials that had stumped him could be collected so easily. He felt like he was dreaming, as if a pie had fallen from the sky.
The success rate of modifying the Dragon Blood Battle Gu Recipe is 100%, and it costs nothing. The Lineage gives you as many materials as you can, so how could you not take advantage of this incredible opportunity? It would be outrageous not to make a killing.
I'd do this deal myself; only a fool wouldn't.
