Chapter 142: Long Dan

"You really agree to let me learn the unique Gu formula of the Western Lands Long Clan? You're not lying to me?" Long Xuan asked again in disbelief.

"Hehe! We are all one family. Does a family member learning a family member's things still need to be discussed?"

"If you want to refine a Blade Gu, tell me. After arriving at the Western Lands, I will immediately take you to select the main materials for refining the Blade Gu."

"The main material for refining the Blade Gu is the unique spirit insect of our clan, which cannot be found anywhere else, but you have to collect the materials other than the main material yourself," Long Qian smiled, his expression not like he was joking.

"This is natural, then thank you very much. I, Long Xuan, will remember this favor," Long Xuan was ecstatic in his heart.

Regardless of what purpose the Western Lands Long Clan had for letting him refine the Blade Gu, since they didn't mention any conditions, he would take it for nothing.

At this time, the duel between Long Ziyan and that Blade Gu was still continuing. The person and the Gu were evenly matched in blade techniques, neither could do anything to the other, and they fell into a stalemate. It seemed that it was impossible to decide the winner in a short time.

Long Ziyan sighed helplessly. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't have a complete sword cultivator inheritance, and usually didn't have another sword cultivator to spar with to increase each other's skills, causing her sword technique to have difficulty in making progress, how could she have fought with a Gu worm for such a long time?

In her view, she, as a human, actually fought with a Gu worm for so long, which was simply a very shameful thing.

She suddenly looked at Long Ruoxue who was hiding behind the Blade Gu watching the show, and said, "My outer Gu hasn't been released yet. Although I can't do anything to this Blade Gu in a short time, I can bypass the Blade Gu and attack you."

"If you have no way to defend against my sword energy, then you can admit defeat now!"

Long Ruoxue put away the look of watching the show, and her expression changed. She only then remembered that Long Ziyan hadn't released a single outer Gu.

And all her outer Gu had already been released, including the Earth Mover Beetle, all were seconds-killed by her sword energy.

Although the Blade Gu was now tied with her, once she released her outer Gu, then whether she used Gu worms to drag the Blade Gu and personally come to attack herself, or let the top-grade Gu worm come to attack herself, she was bound to lose.

She sighed and said, "Alright! I admit defeat. It is my Western Lands Long Clan that has lost two matches to your Extreme West Long Clan."

"However, I am not the strongest genius of the Western Lands Long Clan. That Long Biao is not a genius at all in my clan."

"Currently, the strongest genius of the Western Lands Long Clan is Long Dan. Although you are very strong, you are not necessarily Long Dan's opponent."

Long Ruoxue retracted that Blade Gu, sighing slightly in her heart. She had originally wanted to take advantage of the time when everyone was resting to challenge Long Ziyan, to win back a game for the Western Lands Long Clan and find back some face.

But she didn't expect that stealing a chicken wouldn't lose the rice. Not only did she not win, but she lost another game instead.

The main family's genius lost two matches in a row to the branch family's genius, which has to be said is a very shameful thing, making her feel a bit embarrassed.

How could the branch clan cultivating in the barren land produce so many monsters? She couldn't figure it out.

She finally realized the deep meaning of the family going to the Extreme West Long Clan to invite foreign aid. This move of the family was brilliant. Once this batch of geniuses was brought back, the Bai Clan would just wait to cry. It was estimated that they would be beaten to the point of doubting life.

"Alright! Since the warm-up is over, come and eat roast fish! The roast fish is already roasted!" Long Qian greeted the two.

The two walked over immediately, sat around the campfire, and ate the roast fish roasted by Long Xuan.

He carried seasonings with him, so there was chili on his body, so the taste of the fish he roasted was unique. However, both beauties were of the arrogant type, and Long Xuan finally didn't hear their praise.

Not long after, the others also returned carrying prey. These few people knew how to speak, picked up the roast fish on the grill and ate it with endless praise, loudly praising his roast fish technique.

Everyone ate all the roast fish and roast meat, burped together, climbed into the boat again, raised the Dragon Boat, and continued to fly to the east.

High-level Gu cultivators don't need three meals a day at all. After eating this meal, they can last for a long time. Moreover, everyone has dry food in their storage bags, so the Dragon Boat doesn't need to land from time to time, which can save a lot of unnecessary time.

Another month passed in a flash. At this time, this Dragon Boat finally arrived in the Western Lands and stepped into the territory of the Western Lands Long Clan.

The total time spent was exactly three months. Don't think that three months is not long. You must know that they are taking a third-grade top-grade spirit artifact, and under the control of a Spirit Sea peak Gu cultivator, it is enough to have the speed comparable to a Gu King.

That is to say, they were traveling at the speed of a Gu King, and it took three months to run from the Extreme West to the Western Lands range.

If it were the speed of most people, this distance could be walked for a monkey year and a horse month.

Even if traveling at the speed of a Gu King, it took Long Qian six months to go back and forth between the two places, which is to say, a round trip needed half a year. From this, it can be seen how far the distance between the two places is.

Under the Tianji Eye, he saw a huge black city standing in the center of a plain from afar. Since the Dragon Boat was flying in this direction, it was presumed that this city was the base camp of the Western Lands Long Clan.

This black city didn't know what kind of stone material was used to build it, and it was covered with tiny array patterns. It was presumed that this kind of stone material must be harder than cement. If the cement formula was not improved, cement would really be difficult to be widely applied in this world.

Long Xuan asked curiously, "Is this city the Western Lands Long Clan's?"

Long Qian shook his head and smiled soon, "How is this possible? This sturdy city is jointly controlled by the ten clans of the Western Lands, and the City Lord is competed for fairly by each family."

"This city is called Black Stone City, named because it was built with black stone that even Gu Kings find it difficult to break."

"You must not think that stone materials that can block Gu Kings belong to rare materials. In the extremely distant era, Gu Kings were low-level Gu cultivators, and black stone could only be considered garbage material."

"There happened to be a black stone mine nearby, so this Black Stone City stood up."

"This Black Stone City doesn't know how many times it has blocked the attacks of beast tides. It is precisely because Black Stone City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, simply too difficult to break, plus there is a spirit vein under Black Stone City, leading to a very high concentration of spiritual power in this place, so all clans are frantically squeezing into this city."

"This city is simply too safe. Those families broke their heads to enter here, and even at all costs, they had to grab a piece of land here."

"This led to the magnificent scene of the ten strongest clans of the Western Lands gathering in one city. This also led to experts like clouds in the city, Spirit Sea stage Gu cultivators walking everywhere, and Gu Kings like dogs. Most of the strong people in the Western Lands are concentrated and gathered in this city. You can fully imagine the extent to which the land price in the city has risen now."

"Even if my Long Clan is rich, we can only buy a small area and cannot accommodate all the clansmen at all."

"So the current pattern of the Western Lands Long Clan is that the main clan lives in Black Stone City, and the branch clans live scattered in various places in the Western Lands, managing the industries of the Western Lands Long Clan in various places."

"The branch clan is the clansmen of the Long Clan with impure bloodlines. Their status in the family is not high, but their numbers are extremely huge......"

Long Qian told Long Xuan the general situation of the Western Lands Long Clan. This sentence was also said for the others to hear.

In the conversation, the Dragon Boat landed slowly, landing at a position a distance from the city gate outside the city.

Clearly, flying is definitely prohibited in the city; otherwise, the Dragon Boat would fly directly into the city instead of landing outside the city and having to walk for a not-short distance.

Long Qian walked at the very front, handed a few medium-grade spirit stones to the two Spirit Sea stage guards at the city gate, and then brought a few people into the city.

After entering the city, this group of geniuses from the barren land appreciated the customs and practices of this strange region with great interest and showed strong interest in everything around them.

Among them, the one who felt the most for Long Xuan was the difference in prices. The two places were blocked by the Ten Thousand Mountains and the ocean, completely two different worlds. How could the prices be consistent?

The biggest difference in prices was the spirit insect resources. The clans in the Western Lands seemed to be extremely good at cultivating spirit insects, leading to fierce competition in the spirit insect business, so spirit insect resources were extremely cheap in this region, three times or even five times cheaper than in the Extreme West, simply cabbage prices.

Seeing this scene, Long Xuan's pupils shrank soon. Cheap spirit insect materials mean what? It means that the cost of refining Gu for people in this region is very low, and it is also very easy to refine high-quality Gu worms.

This also led to the combat power of Western Lands Gu cultivators inevitably throwing Extreme West Gu cultivators a large distance away.

At this time, he finally knew why the Long Clan was so excited about setting up a teleportation gate in the two places. If the Extreme West Long Clan packed up the spirit insects of the Western Lands and sold them in the Extreme West, wouldn't they make a fortune?

Buying low and selling high in the two places to earn the price difference is simply a huge profit.

Long Qian also thought of this matter and couldn't wait to put the space hut in the family immediately, so that the two places could establish a relationship of mutual communication as soon as possible, so he walked very fast.

However, the more anxious he was, the easier it was to be dragged down by sudden accidents.

A group of people had already entered the market managed by the Long Clan and were appreciating the dazzling treasures on the side of the street, but an accident suddenly occurred in front, and two groups of people suddenly had a conflict in front, breaking out into a melee. The front was in a mess, and it also blocked the road for the group of people to move forward.

Both sides of the melee were wearing black clothes, and one side was wearing white clothes. They were all Essence Refining stage Gu cultivators. The black side only had more than ten people, but the white side had more than thirty people.

Long Xuan secretly clicked his tongue. Good guy, he could see the melee of more than forty Essence Refining stage Gu cultivators as soon as he came over. It is worthy of being a large region. Essence Refining stage experts are truly not worth money.

When he was still developing in the Extreme West market, there were only a few scattered Essence Refining stage Gu cultivators in the market, right?

Even after entering the family, the number of Essence Refining stage Gu cultivators was not large. These forty-odd Essence Refining stage Gu cultivators were already equivalent to the number of Essence Refining stage Gu cultivators of the Extreme West Long Clan before.

However, although the Gu cultivators wearing black clothes were few in number, one person at the head fought exceptionally fiercely. One person could fight more than ten people alone, and what was exaggerated was that he could still occupy the upper hand. Long Xuan was shocked and immediately looked at this person a few more times.

You must know that his opponents were all Essence Refining stage Gu cultivators, and there was no lack of peak Essence Refining stage experts at the same level as him, but he could still suppress the opposite side and fight. His combat power was simply off the charts.

This person was absolutely a genius at the monster level, far from what Long Biao, that water goods, could compare to.

It was precisely because of his existence that although the number of people on both sides was very different, the black side still did not fall into a disadvantage.
