The Path of Immortality: Starts With Creating Water Bear Gu

With the spirit stones in hand, Long Xuan hurriedly left without even saying goodbye. The onlookers who were still watching the commotion made way for him. By now, they had already realized that this person was the source of a large number of Spirit Gathering Pills and must have an extraordinary background. They were eager to curry favor with him, not daring to offend him.

Seeing that this person was merely a clone, they harbored no other thoughts.

Just like that, the fire clone arranged by Long Xuan left the market safely. Along the way, he looked back from time to time. With the farsight ability of the Eye of Heaven's secret, it wasn't easy for anyone to follow him. Even if they released tiny Gu to track him, it would be impossible to escape his eyes.

After confirming that no one was following him, the fire clone reunited with the main body and immediately returned to Great Stone Village.

The various clan heads indeed had no intention of following him. They were too excited after acquiring the fossil veins, summoning all the experts in their families to head to that desolate area. They had no time to make trouble.

Over a month had passed since he set out. Long Xuan returned to his cozy little home, seeing the vibrant sea of flowers and the spirit bees dancing above them.

He also saw the proud, fat chicken bro, which made him feel a sense of warmth. Long Xuan couldn't resist trying to pet it, but it agilely avoided him.

"Nothing unusual happened while I was away, right?"

Seeing the busy figure in the herb garden, Long Xuan smiled as he approached, placing his hand on its body and quickly assimilating wood clone's memories.

His so-called serious task was naturally to refine an peak-grade Gu insect. Having found an peak-grade spirit insect by chance in the mine, when else would be a better time to refine it?

Long Xuan took out a small white snake from the insect-rearing bag, revealing an excited smile.

This was the peak-grade spirit insect extracted from that fossil. It was a type of snake spirit insect, entirely white and extraordinarily cute. The strangest thing was that its body emitted a faint aroma of wine.

Although Long Xuan was not well-versed in spirit insects, he recognized very few peak-grade spirit insects, but he did know this one.

This little white snake was the famous Wine Insect. As the name implies, it was a type of insect that liked to drink wine.[1]

The Wine Insect came in four qualities: low-grade, mid-grade, high-grade, and peak-grade. Unlike traditional Gu refining methods, Wine Insects were transformed into different Gu insects by tasting various wines.

One could say the quality of the wine represented the strength of the Wine Gu. Different wines would endow the Wine Insect with different abilities and transformations.

One could say the rarer the wine, the stronger the Wine Gu produced.

So, Long Xuan had an idea. The brewing techniques of this world were different from those of his previous life. What would happen if he used distillation techniques from his past life to refine a Wine Gu?

With this thought, his heart itched like a cat scratching. He couldn't wait to try it.

Long Xuan immediately took out paper and pen, sat at the table, enjoying the breeze and the floral fragrance while seeking inspiration.

He quickly wrote down the two large characters "Wine Gu" on the white paper and, inspired by novels from his past life, wrote four flavors of wine: sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy.

At this moment, the progress on the incomplete formula shot to 100%.

Long Xuan was stunned on the spot. Had he just created a Gu formula in a few seconds? That couldn't be right. Only four ingredients? Wasn't that too hasty? How could a Gu insect be strong with so few ingredients? He was deeply skeptical.

But he soon realized that the few ingredients might be just the appearance.

It seemed that this Gu formula only required four flavors of wine: sour, sweet, bitter, and spicy. but how many ingredients are needed for each of these four wine recipes?

1. The little white snake In Chinese, "Xiao Bai" (小白) is a common name, and "Bai" (白) means "white". However, "Bai" is also a character used in the name of a famous Chinese liquor, "Baijiu" (白酒), which literally means "white alcohol" or "white wine". Basically a word play on the name.
