Beyond the Boundary Pearl's Range

Two months passed in the blink of an eye. In the Soul Library, Long Xuan looked at the book in his hand, titled "Mass Alchemy," and revealed an extremely smug smile.

Just as he predicted, it is theoretically possible to refine pills beyond one's level, provided that the people refining the pills together are in perfect harmony, preferably as clones or twins; otherwise, it is extremely difficult to succeed.

Having met the requirements, Long Xuan spent two months successfully researching the method of refining pills beyond one's level.

Yang Zhan had already given him the materials to refine the Icefire Twin Extremes Pill, so he could now try refining a Grade Third-Grade Spirit Pill, which Long Xuan was eager to try.

It was a coincidence that, just now, thanks to the relentless efforts of his clone, he successfully broke through and advanced to the Marrow Cleansing Peak Gu Cultivator. This resulted in him having greater spiritual power and a higher realm, making it easier for him to refine third-grade Third-Grade Spirit Pill beyond his level. His breakthrough came at just the right time.

In fact, he should have broken through long ago. The reason why his breakthrough speed was so slow this time was entirely due to the huge side effects of opening the Life-and-Death Gate, which almost caused him to drop in cultivation level. It took him a long time to recover. Otherwise, he should have broken through long ago.

Meanwhile, in the past two months, the Divine Dragon Ship has finally sailed out of the influence range of the Boundary Pearl. Although his Thatch Gu can no longer reach the Western Land, the Far Western Lands has not been affected by the Boundary Pearl, and he can now return to his Medicine Garden in the Far Western Lands without any problems.

Long Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered his clone to go back and transfer the spirit medicine from the Great Medicine Garden into the World Tree Seed, as he was moving.

Now that he already has the World Tree Seed as a mobile Medicine Garden, he doesn't need to keep Medicine Garden fixed in one place.

A fixed Medicine Garden is nowhere near as convenient as a portable Medicine Garden. Since he will be frequently changing maps in the future, a fixed Medicine Garden will definitely become unusable, making the establishment of a mobile Medicine Garden imperative.

Once the divine trees planted in the Medicine Garden are moved into the World Tree Seed, and these divine trees are used as the Formation Eye, then this Divine Dragon Ship will become even more terrifying.

However, after the Thatch Gu could travel to the Far Western Lands, Long Xuan did not immediately report that he was safe. He decided to wait until the war there was over before reporting that he was safe.

Otherwise, if I show myself now, wouldn't I be captured and forced to participate in the war again? I'm so busy right now, I don't have time to participate in the war.

However, it was only right to let Long Ziyan know that I was safe, so as not to worry her.

However, Long Ziyan's reply made him fall into deep thought.

Long Ziyan's reply was that he should not return for a while, and it would be best to fake his death, live in Rogue Cultivator as a rogue cultivator for a period of time, and not return to the Long Family until he broke through to the Gu King level.

Because he revealed too much in that battle, especially that Secret Method that could kill enemies across vast realms, enough to arouse the greed of any Gu King.

The dangers posed by these things come not only from the outside, but also from within.

As the Long Family Alliance grows larger, the number of unfamiliar Long Family Gu King within the alliance increases, and the character of these Gu King is not guaranteed.

He will most likely be asked to hand over anything that was exposed during that battle when he returns.

Of course, this is just speculation and has not happened yet. Long Ziyan's worries are just precautions. However, Long Xuan took her speculation to heart.

Character is not determined by surname. As the Long Family Alliance grows stronger, it contains all sorts of strange and monstrous elements, so one really has to be wary.

Secondly, Jun Zaitian he killed in that battle, was no ordinary person; both his parents were Peak Gu King.

Although the Jun Clan is a very disciplined Lineage, it doesn't mean that everyone in the family will follow the rules.

If you really think that the Jun Clan is a law-abiding Lineage and will never harm you, then you are being incredibly naive.

Therefore, Long Ziyan suggested that he not go home for the time being, but go to another area to hide for a while.

Of course, this was just her preemptive speculation; the event might not actually happen, and she might be overthinking it.

But Long Xuan would never dare to gamble with his life. He was always cautious, and he would never take the risk even if there was only a one percent chance.

Either of these two reasons would be enough to convince him not to return to the Long Family in the short term.

Upon receiving the letter, he did not hesitate at all and immediately followed Long Ziyan's advice, preparing to leave the Long Family and become Rogue Cultivator for a period of time.

Before he even entered the Long Family, he had already planned to steal all of the Long Family's knowledge and skills and then leave immediately.

I never imagined it would drag on for so long. Now that too many secrets have been exposed, it's time to leave.

Long Xuan was filled with thoughts, and finally got up, deciding to return to the Medicine Garden in person.

Previously, he was busy researching Pill Formula, and his clones were always the ones traveling to and from the Medicine Garden.

Now that the Pill Formula has finally been successfully researched, he urgently needs a secluded place to refine the pills, so his original body has finally decided to go back.

Refining the Icefire Twin Extremes Pill can attract extraordinary phenomena, so he could only find a secluded place in the Far Western Lands to refine it.

The Far Western Lands a sparsely populated region, and most of the Gu cultivators have been recruited to participate in the war.

Therefore, if alchemy there causes any unusual phenomena, it will generally not attract the attention of powerful Gu cultivators.

It can only be said that the restoration of the Thatch Gu House was timely; otherwise, he really wouldn't know how to cover up the strange phenomena.

The small cabin placed in the Medicine Garden in the Far Western Lands was Living Wood House. When Long Xuan climbed out of it, he took a deep breath of the familiar air and immediately felt a sense of warmth. Everything here made him feel very comfortable; it felt like home.

He walked into the Medicine Garden with a smile, and what came into view was a sea of flowers that stretched as far as the eye could see. Countless Ice Bee Ice Bee flew around on it, happily collecting nectar, as if they were humming a song.

During his absence, the Ice Bee have grown even larger, numbering around 100,000.

Since they didn't collect taxes, the animals had more food and were better able to reproduce.

Long Xuan smiled with relief. Now that he was back, the Ice Bee would definitely have to move.

He wants to transplant all the floral spirit medicine into the World Tree Seed, and the Ice Bee will become the first creatures in this world.

Long Xuan glanced at Queen Bee Bingbing, who was fast asleep in a giant beehive, and, not wanting to disturb her, quickly left.

All the Ice Bee are very hardworking, coming out to collect honey before dawn. But this Bingbing, after becoming the queen bee, is lazy and loves to eat. She wakes up and eats what's already prepared, and her subordinates take care of all her meals. She really knows how to enjoy life.

After leaving the garden, Long Xuan soon spotted the Chicken Bro lying in the henhouse.

Good heavens, it's gotten even fatter in all these years! While I was away, it was left unsupervised and must have stolen countless good things. Now it's so fat that the chicken coop can hardly contain it anymore.

At this moment, the Chicken Bro was fast asleep, completely unaware that its owner had returned.

However, Long Xuan was more than happy that it was asleep, because it would be easier for him to steal eggs when it was asleep.

It had been a long time since he had tasted tea eggs, and Long Xuan felt a sudden craving.

He looked around, searching for the eggs.

Logically speaking, since I haven't been home for several years, the eggs I've accumulated should be piled up like a mountain.

However, after searching for a long time, Long Xuan couldn't find a single egg. It was as if all the eggs had vanished into thin air, and they were hidden very well.

He couldn't help but frown. Where are the eggs? Where are my eggs? Did Chicken Bro eat them? Can it really produce and consume its own eggs?

Undeterred, Long Xuan searched carefully again and finally found an open Storage Bag in the chicken coop.

Long Xuan's eyes lit up. Good heavens, this chicken has become a spirit! It has even learned to use Storage Bag. It really made him search for a long time.

Long Xuan chuckled sinisterly, slowly reaching inside, trying his best not to make a sound. Slowly, he pulled out the open Storage Bag.

He glanced inside and immediately beamed with joy.

I told you to use the Storage Bag, and now look what happened! He caught us all! Wow, he really stole a lot.

Long Xuan carefully and finally left the chicken coop.

Next, he went to the four locations where the Divine Dragon Tree were planted in the east, west, south, and north, and found that the Medicine Gu had indeed not been lazy during his absence; it had matured the four Divine Dragon Tree to be extremely thick.

Long Xuan nodded inwardly. Once this batch of Divine Dragon Milk was extracted and the eye drops were prepared, the Eye of Heavenly Secrets would be able to complete its transformation in a perfect state.

The transformation of the Eye of Heavenly Secrets should take place before arriving at Sky Island, Long Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

Next, Long Xuan went to the Spirit Spring to take a look at the Golden Dragonfish and the Lighthouse Jellyfish.

The Spirit Spring is rich in energy, Golden Dragonfish can fully meet their daily needs by absorbing a large amount of spiritual energy. Therefore, even if food is scarce in the Spirit Spring, they will not starve to death in a short period of time, but they certainly cannot survive without food for a long time.

After Long Xuan returned, he immediately fed them a large number of Spirit Insect, giving them a full meal. All the Golden Dragonfish went crazy, devouring all the Spirit Insect in the water, seemingly starving.

After that, Long Xuan moved them all and threw them into the huge lake inside the World Tree Seed.

Although the Spirit Spring is more suitable for the growth of Golden Dragonfish, its area is simply too small. Without someone to feed them, it is impossible to meet the daily needs of the Golden Dragonfish. Eating spiritual energy without food is not a long-term solution.

Long Xuan was too lazy to waste time feeding the fish. He didn't know how many more times he would be in this situation where he didn't have time to feed the fish, so he simply threw all the Golden Dragonfish into a large lake and let them solve their own food problem. He would leave them alone after that.

If a lake is large enough, the fish are essentially wild, so there's no need for Gu cultivators to waste time feeding them.

Next, Long Xuan went to the ranch, accidentally killed a sheep, picked some small chili peppers from the vegetable garden, and enjoyed a delicious mutton hot pot.

The chili peppers in this world, imbued with spiritual energy, are far spicier than those in his previous life. Since the Gu cultivator's body is highly resistant to spiciness, he thoroughly enjoyed them.

After eating and drinking his fill, Long Xuan finally left the Medicine Garden, preparing to find a secluded place to refine the Icefire Twin Extremes Pill.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, in a remote, desolate mountain in the Far Western Lands, dark clouds suddenly gathered and a strong wind blew. The wind swirled up the dark clouds, and just moments before, the sky had been clear and blue. Now, suddenly, it looked like the end of the world.

The strange phenomenon lasted for an unknown period of time. When the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds again, and the earth gradually brightened.

The earth returned to its previous sunny and breezy state, with butterflies fluttering among the flowers, as if nothing had happened.

Inside a mountain cave, Long Xuan stared at the three peculiar red and blue pills in his palm. One pill was icy cold while the other was burning hot. He couldn't help but let out a wild laugh:

"Hahaha, I, Second-Grade Alchemist, have actually managed to refine a third-grade Third-Grade Spirit Pill, who else can do that?"

"Among all those in the world who can refine pills across levels, I, Long Xuan, am probably the only one!"

"Moreover, this is a Third-Grade Spirit Pill capable of attracting extraordinary phenomena from heaven and earth; the difficulty of refining it is rarely seen throughout history."

"Even Third-Grade Alchemist couldn't refine Third-Grade Spirit Pill, yet I, a Second-Grade Alchemist, actually succeeded in refining it."

"Such an achievement is unprecedented and likely to remain so! I am truly a genius!"

"It is a tragedy that I was born in this era, a tragedy for all the alchemical geniuses of this time!"

Hearing Long Xuan boast about himself like that, the Integrity Gu turned its head away, unable to bear watching any longer; it could hardly listen anymore.

After venting his emotions, Long Xuan finally divided the three Icefire Twin Extremes Pill into three separate bottles and carefully stored them in his storage ring.

The Icefire Twin Extremes Pill isn't just effective on Yang Zhan; it's equally effective on him. Who can guarantee they won't fall victim to someone else's Gu poison in the future?

If he were ever tricked and afflicted with some deadly poison, the Icefire Twin Extremes Pill would definitely be the thing that could save his life.

It's always good to have a few extra ones on hand; being prepared for a rainy day can only benefit him, not harm him.

He was excited and returned to the Medicine Garden as quickly as possible. Through the Living Wood House in the Medicine Garden, he instantly appeared in a bedroom of the Divine Dragon Ship on the ocean.

At this time, the crew members on the ship were probably unaware that the captain had been living on land for half a month without anyone noticing.

It has to be said that the Thatch Gu is truly a bug-level existence in this world; its abilities are far too disruptive to the world's balance.

After Long Xuan returned to his bedroom, he walked out of the room with a smile, ready to let this missing person show his face. He was met by Di Xin walking towards him, who threw a Insect-Rearing Pouch at him, and then returned to his room without saying a word and closed the door.

Long Xuan was taken aback. He slowly opened the Insect-Rearing Pouch and his expression changed drastically when he saw a bunch of Supreme-grade Spirit Insect inside.

Good heavens, this is exactly the batch of materials I needed to refine the Three-Legged Golden Toad. Combined with the materials Yang Zhan gave me, I can say that I have basically all the materials needed to refine the Three-Legged Golden Toad.

She actually sent me materials at this time. Well, no need to think about it, this Di Xin must have a Thatch Gu.

She must have just gone out onto Thatch Gu House to play for a while, just like me, before returning.

After tossing the Insect-Rearing Pouch directly into the World Tree Seed, Long Xuan appeared deep in thought.

He felt it was time to begin his plan to drastically modify the Three-Legged Golden Toad Gu Recipe.

Just like that, Long Xuan had just opened the door to come out, but now he went back in and slammed the door shut behind him.

After returning to his room, he immediately went to the Soul Library and began to modify the Three-Legged Golden Toad Gu Recipe. He had just finished the task of refining Third-Grade Spirit Pill and was already busy again.
