That's right, a year and a half has passed, and Blackstone City has been besieged for a year and a half without being lifted.

Despite holding out for so long, the Great Ancestor Shi Haojun still hasn't given up and continues to control endless plague corpses to launch a fierce attack on Black Stone City.

To reduce the consumption of Spirit Stone by the City-Protecting Formation, members of the various Lineage in the city stand on the city walls every day to guard the city and constantly clear away the Plague Corpse below.

The two sides have remained deadlocked, fighting until now.

Many forces were observing this battle, and they were all astonished by Blackstone City's tenacity.

However, if it weren't for the Western Land Long Family secretly distributing food and water within the city, Blackstone City would have fallen long ago.

Shi Haojun's attack was too sudden. The various tribes had no time to make any preparations. The city had no shortage of Spirit Stone, but food and water were a major problem.

It can be said that the existence of a Spatial House is what has allowed Blackstone City to miraculously hold out until now.

If it weren't for the emergence of Long Xuan, who brought too many things that didn't belong to this world, the destruction of Blackstone City would have been inevitable.

The Western Land Long Family thus secretly continued to sell food and water, making a fortune in the process, and now they are completely filthy rich.

Long Yuanshan couldn't stop smiling every day. In just a year and a half, the wealth of his Western Land Long Family had increased more than a hundredfold. They had really made a killing this time.

At this moment, he wished that Shi Haojun would besiege the city for even longer. He believed that if the siege dragged on for another year or two, the treasures of all the tribes in the city would be completely looted by his Long Family.

The thought of such a scene made him burst into laughter.

Despite his high spirits, he was physically exhausted, his face was haggard, his hair was frizzy, and he smelled foul.

He was risking his life to earn this money. Although he had plenty of food and water, he couldn't take a bath or eat his fill.

Otherwise, if others see you dressed so cleanly every day and eating so well, they'll definitely suspect you have a food stash at home, and then something terrible will happen.

In order to put on a good show, not only did he, the head of the family, have to go hungry, but all the other clan elders and Gu King- level ancestors also had to go hungry, and they had to pretend that their families were very poor and could not get enough to eat.

The entire clan was starving. Most of the Long Family members did not know that the Lineage had more food than they could possibly eat. They had to eat dirt and drink urine every day, and their lives were extremely miserable.

There's nothing we can do about it. The Long Family has so many members; if they knew the Lineage had a large amount of grain, Long Family whole city would know very quickly.

Then that cunning city lord will use moral blackmail again, and they won't be able to refuse to pay their grain.

Therefore, even though the Western Land Long Family had no shortage of food thanks to their Spatial House, they still lived a very hard life, starving to the point of dizziness and exhaustion. They were desperate to earn this money.

However, recently many Gu King in the city have been experiencing health problems, causing widespread panic as people believe that a terrible plague has infiltrated the city.

Every household in the city was under quarantine, and the city lord Yan Pojun looked extremely weak, pacing anxiously back and forth. Even the Gu King in the city was having problems, and even he, who was usually so strong, was starting to panic.

This situation actually started appearing a year ago, but each Gu King was strong and healthy and could withstand it, so they didn't take these problems seriously.

However, as time went on, each Gu King was short of water and food, and had to expend physical strength every day to clear the Plague Corpse under the city wall, so their bodies gradually could not hold on.

At this time, the Alchemist of the Medicine Clan and Alchemy Clan were already researching ways to cure the illness, but they could only suppress it and could not cure it completely.

This made Yan Pojun extremely anxious, thinking it was a lingering effect from that battle.

If Long Xuan were present at this moment, he would probably immediately think that there was a serious problem in their bodies because they lacked microorganisms.

He had long anticipated that a major problem would arise after these ignorant Gu King killed all the microorganisms in their bodies, but he didn't know exactly what the problem would be, as no one had ever conducted such an experiment in his previous life.

At this time, Long Xuan was unaware that due to Yao Chen's bad idea, all the Gu King in Blackstone City had developed health problems.

He confidently tossed the "Ten Ultimates Saber Technique" to Xiaoyue, Xiaoyue glanced at him curiously.

This sword technique seems to have been created by Long Xuan himself. Is a sword technique he created himself reliable? He doesn't seem very old. Xiaoyue looked at him with a suspicious gaze, and then flipped through the sword technique in her hand with a half-believing and half-doubting expression.

However, once it saw it, it couldn't take its eyes off it, its eyes shining with excitement.

This swordsmanship is simply too amazing. It's hard to believe that such a powerful swordsmanship could have been created by Long Xuan. Has he even ever touched a sword?

It hesitated, thinking.

As a Blade Gu, it is an expert in using swords and can tell at a glance just how extraordinary the "Ten Ultimates Saber Technique" are.

It was captivated by the incredible swordsmanship at first glance, watching with rapt attention, completely engrossed, as if it had found a priceless treasure.

This was actually a rare Ten-Blade Style Ten-Blade Style. It was the first time it had ever seen one. It was born with ten swords, Ten-Blade Style was practically tailor-made for it, the most suitable sword technique for it. Upon seeing this sword technique, it was immediately excited.

It quickly flipped through the sword manual in its hand, occasionally brandishing the ten swords as if testing its swordsmanship.

The Ten Ultimates Saber Technique consist of ten moves, each capable of breaking through a different style. The strongest move of the Ten Ultimates Saber Technique is when Ten Forms Unleashed, instantly shattering everything with unstoppable power; no one can withstand this attack.

This move is practically tailor-made for it; it's so perfect for it. It was born with ten swords and can perfectly Ten Forms Unleashed.

Humans only have two arms, so they can never use Ten Forms Unleashed; at most, they can only use two techniques simultaneously.

This "Ten Ultimates Saber Technique" was undoubtedly tailor-made for it, and it finally became certain that this sword technique was created by Long Xuan.

When Xiaoyue saw the Ten Forms Unleashed designed specifically for her, she immediately fell in love with it and began practicing the strongest move day and night, striving to master it as quickly as possible.

It felt that once it mastered the Ten Ultimates Saber Technique of the Ten-Blade Style, it would truly be invincible in swordsmanship.

Seeing that Xiaoyue was engrossed in reading "The Ten Ultimates Saber Technique," Long Xuan didn't disturb her any further and quietly left.

Now that the Blade Gu has been forged and the matching Ten-Blade Style has been successfully created, it's time to consider its transformation.

As for its transformation path, Long Xuan still decided to follow the route of devouring Blade Intent and Sword Intent, so that Xiaoyue would be proficient in both sword and saber, and take the invincible path of dual cultivation of sword and saber.

After all, it's a level 500,000 Blade Gu with powerful talent. It's only right that it learns more; otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of its monstrous talent?

However, he had no choice in selecting this first Sword Intent; he could only set his sights on Long Ziyan.

It's unknown whether Long Ziyan will be able to comprehend Sword Intent after advancing to the Spiritual Sea Stage Gu cultivation.

He planned to go and ask her right now. If it was difficult for her to awaken her Sword Intent, he would try to use his imagination to help her. There really was nothing in this world that he couldn't do.

Long Xuan revealed a confident expression and slowly walked towards the location of the Thatch Gu.

That diligent and hardworking Thatch Gu had already built the ten large houses he wanted. He arranged one of the large houses in Long Ziyan's residence, so that he could sneak over there in an instant when it was dark and windy.

After all, the two people live quite far apart, so placing a Thatch Gu House there would make it much easier for them to visit each other.

As for the remaining nine Thatch Gu House, Long Xuan also asked his clansmen to place them in different locations. Those locations were extremely far from the Far Western Lands, reaching the limit that Fourth-Grade Thatch Gu House could reach.

The Lineage had already been in the logistics business for some time, with members of the Long Family's Gu cultivation practiced in remote areas. Therefore, it wasn't difficult for him to spend some contribution points to send his Thatch Gu House to extremely distant regions.

He didn't have time to travel to all the different regions himself, so he had to rely on others.

However, after placing the Thatch Gu House Thatch Gu House, he needed to take some time to teleport there and change its location, which took him quite a bit of time.

After all, finding a spot that's hard for others to spot isn't easy.

When he arrived at the location of the Thatch Gu, preparing to climb from the Icefire Cabin into Long Ziyan's residence, he was surprised to find that there were two Thatch Gu inside the Icefire Cabin.

Hey, isn't that Long Ziyan's Thatch Gu? Did she get tricked by her own Thatch Gu again?

Long Xuan was secretly amazed. Could these two little things have fallen in love? Can Gu Insect even fall in love?

Since it was summer and the weather was hot and scorching, the two Thatch Gu were hiding in the ice half of the Icefire Cabin to escape the heat. They were lying on small recliners, lazily drinking iced juice just like him, living a very comfortable life.

"Stop drinking, you're not going to behave well. Take me there right now."

With a dark expression, Long Xuan pulled the little thing up from the recliner.

Thatch Gu looked unwilling, but had no choice but to submit to Long Xuan's tyranny and led him to Long Ziyan's residence.

When Long Xuan walked out of a strangely shaped large house, the first thing he saw was Long Ziyan lying on a recliner, drinking chilled juice, looking very comfortable.

"What are you doing here? I've already reached the tenth rank of bloodline."

Seeing Long Xuan emerge from the Thatch Gu House, Long Ziyan glared at him, as if he must have come to do something bad.

Long Xuan's expression froze, and he hurriedly said, "No way! Your bloodline purity has been upgraded, but mine hasn't! You can't just use me and then discard me! You have to be kind!"

Upon hearing this, Long Ziyan frowned and asked, "How many more times do you need to advance to the next rank?"

"Um..." Long Xuan said, looking embarrassed, "You know my aptitude is terrible, I can't compare to you at all. You only need a hundred tries, but I might need thousands more!"

"Thousands of times?" Long Ziyan suddenly exclaimed, her hand trembling, spilling juice on the ground, her face turning completely black.
