The Path of Immortality: Starts With Creating Water Bear Gu

Long Xuan was so excited that he rubbed his hands together and circled around the fire dragon fruit tree, but he felt at a loss about how to proceed.

Low-grade spiritual soil can grow first to fourth-grade spiritual herbs.

Medium-grade spiritual soil can grow fifth to eighth-grade spiritual herbs.

High-grade spiritual soil can grow ninth-grade spiritual herbs, tenth-grade spiritual herbs, eleventh-grade earth-level spiritual herbs, and twelfth-grade heaven-level spiritual herbs.

This is the conventional wisdom of this world.

However, the prerequisite is that the spiritual herb has no stringent special requirements. For example, this fire dragon fruit tree, which lives in magma, must have a magma environment; no matter how high the quality of the spiritual soil is, it is useless.

So, he couldn't transplant this fire dragon fruit tree to his own medicine garden. Otherwise, why would the cave master have undertaken such a massive project here? If it were easy to transplant, it wouldn't have stayed here.

Long Xuan fell into deep thought. Seeing the treasure but being unable to take it away was something he couldn't accept.

Leaving it here was definitely not an option. At least five people knew about this place now, and it might not remain hidden for long. Leaving the fire dragon fruit tree here was no longer safe.

Long Xuan pondered for a long time. If he had to transplant the fire dragon fruit tree, his medicine garden was not a magma place. Could he replace the magma with the ice flame?

This idea was undoubtedly very risky because ice flame was not magma and was cold.

If he transplanted the fire dragon fruit tree into an area with cold fire, the chances of it dying were far greater than the chances of it surviving.

But Long Xuan, after much deliberation, ultimately gritted his teeth and decided to do it anyway.

He admitted he was selfish. He would rather risk destroying the fire dragon fruit tree than leave it for someone else.

If nobody could have it, that was still better than him not getting it.

So he took out tools from his storage bag, ready to transplant the fire dragon fruit tree.

Unbeknownst to him, while he was transplanting the spiritual herb, a few people who had already left the area were in trouble.

And it was significant trouble. The so-called 100% safety that Li Laodao had promised was once again a joke.

At this moment, in a forest, besides Li Dashan who was still standing, everyone else was painfully lying on the ground, their expressions extremely twisted.

"You actually planted a Gu in us. When did you do it?"

The fake Long Xuan, played by Fire clone, was stunned, showing a look of disbelief.

He had followed the main body's instructions, always keeping a close eye on Li Dashan, watching him very carefully.

Under the Eye of Heaven's Secret, he shouldn't have had a chance to plant a Gu.

"Li Dashan! You dare to act against us, why? I have not treated you badly! Are you so greedy for mere treasures that you've lost your conscience? Where is the Li Dashan from Li Family Village who loved to help others?"

Li Laodao roared in anger, his face twisted with rage, losing all semblance of reason.

To him, the person who could least betray him here was Li Dashan. Li Dashan was his fellow villager, known in the village as a great philanthropist. Anyone could play dirty tricks, but not him. He trusted his judgment of people.

But the reality of what happened hit him hard and made him utterly collapse.

Di Xin frowned tightly, her face pale. Everyone had been very cordial during the distribution of the treasures, with no problems, which made her let her guard down.

Unexpectedly, on the way back, when everyone's vigilance was low, this venomous snake gave them all a fatal blow.

The method of planting Gu was so sinister that even she didn't know when she was poisoned.

This caused her, a grand expert at the Marrow cleansing stage, to fall into such a trap, making her extremely angry and pale.

Only the little medicine boy sat quietly, knowing that with the Little Strong Gu, he could hold on for a while longer.

Li Dashan looked at Li Laodao with a guilty expression.

He didn't want to betray them, but he had no choice. This was beyond his control.

He touched the ring on his finger, and suddenly an old phantom floated out.

Seeing this, Long Xuan was stunned and genuinely shocked.

It was the legendary Golden Finger Grandpa. Wow, another Child of Destiny!

The old phantom scanned the crowd with a smile, saying, "Didn't expect this, did you? My method of planting Gu is not something you juniors can detect."

"You little brat who always peeked at me, no matter how vigilant you were, it was useless. I've never failed in planting Gu, no matter how cautious you are."

The old phantom then looked at Long Xuan with a playful smile.

Long Xuan's face turned pale. He still didn't know how he had been poisoned.

"It's the Ghost Soul Gu! You planted the Ghost Soul Gu in us!"

Di Xin, with her vast knowledge, sensed the soul-pain and immediately targeted the Ghost Soul Gu.

But she wasn't 100% sure and was trying to trick him into confirming it.

Only by knowing what Gu they were poisoned with could they find a way to break it.

"Hey? This little girl is smart, able to see that I planted the Ghost Soul Gu. Not bad!"

The old phantom looked at her with surprised eyes.

"That's right! I planted the famous Ghost Soul Gu in you. The soul has visible and invisible forms. The Ghost Soul Gu is an invisible soul form Gu that can parasitize a person's soul and feed on it."

"My Ghost Soul Gu is invisible to the naked eye. No matter how cautious you are, you can't guard against its sneak attack."

Hearing this, Di Xin sighed in relief. She had tricked the truth out of him. Knowing it was the Ghost Soul Gu made things easier.

Long Xuan finally realized why he had fallen for it. Even with the Eye of Heaven's Secret constantly watching, he still fell for it.

His clone could only replicate the Eye of Heaven's Secret's abilities, not his golden finger. So it was understandable that he got poisoned.

If he could see the progress, even if he couldn't see the Ghost Soul Gu, he could see its progress and wouldn't have been caught off guard.

"Master! You promised me to spare Li Laodao's life!" Li Dashan said, looking at the phantom above the ring.

"Don't worry! I want a perfect body. He's old and ugly, not up to my standards."

The old phantom glanced at Li Laodao with disdain and then looked away.

Hearing this, Long Xuan finally understood the situation.

Li Laodao's judgment of people wasn't wrong. Li Dashan had no intention of backstabbing everyone.

But his ring contained an unpredictable variable. The Ghost Soul Gu was planted by this variable, and even if Li Dashan disagreed, it wouldn't matter.

Because this mysterious golden finger grandpa urgently needed to find a body.
