Chapter 184: The Rabbit Has Gone Mad

"Hehe, you've finally returned. If you hadn't come back, I would have suspected that old fellow Long Yuanshan had detained you."

Long Wanli patted Long Xuan on the shoulder and laughed loudly.

"Hmph! It's only because they faced a crisis this time; otherwise, our clan's geniuses might have been detained by them for a few more years."

The Great Elder also walked over and said indignantly.

Next, the people around didn't say anything more, because geniuses from the Western Lands Long Clan were already drilling out of the space hut, and they naturally had to welcome them with smiles to avoid losing etiquette.

The first to drill out was Long Dan. After seeing this Long Dan, all the high-level officials of the Far West Long Clan looked at him with curious eyes, secretly marveling.

They had heard that this child possessed the innate spirit Gu, the Extreme Gu, and was a genius with top-tier talent, sweeping across the same rank in combat power. They couldn't help but take a few more looks.

The second to come out was Long Ruoxue. At this moment, her little face still had a stubborn look, full of reluctance.

For this genius, all the high-level officials were very familiar, and they all welcomed her with smiles.

The geniuses of the Western Lands Long Clan seemed to be forcibly sorted by talent. Even those who didn't want to leave were forcibly thrown over by Long Yuanshan.

Geniuses of the Western Lands Long Clan appeared one after another. Not long after, the geniuses with the strongest talent of the Western Lands Long Clan had all come over.

The last one sent over was Long Qian in a coma, and then no one else came.

The high-level officials of the Far West Long Clan waited for a long time, and seeing no one else coming, they stopped guarding here and took the group of geniuses away to hold a welcoming banquet for them.

The visit of the geniuses of the Western Lands Long Clan naturally had to be treated with good food and drink to fulfill the duties of a host. The banquet was extremely lively, with singing and dancing, and laughter.

Compared to the oppression of Black Stone City, it was much more festive here, full of the breath of life.

Many geniuses of the Western Lands Long Clan also gradually began to show smiles.

The banquet lasted until late at night before dispersing. The geniuses of the Western Lands Long Clan were also arranged by the family head to stay in places and were taken away one after another.

Long Xuan finally ended the socializing and walked home, drunk.

He rushed on his way at full speed, but when he broke into the magic cube array that looked familiar to him and walked to the top of the mountain to see a bare tree, he instantly sobered up.

He couldn't help but widen his eyes, rubbed his eyes hard, and his eyeballs were about to pop out.

"Who on earth did this good deed! Stand out for me! I guarantee I won't beat it to death!" Long Xuan shouted loudly, his shout being particularly abrupt in the quiet night.

At this moment, how could he not see that this bare tree without leaves or bark was the living wood.

If it weren't for an eye-catching ∞ symbol reminding him, he would have ignored this bare tree directly and wouldn't have recognized what it was.

That rabbit also jumped out of the insect-breeding bag instantly. Seeing that bare tree, it was also stunned, and couldn't help but rub its confused rabbit eyes.

Soon it squeaked and screamed, pointing at the living wood, and then looked at Long Xuan, screaming non-stop, clearly furious.

"Calm down! Calm down! Anger hurts the body."

Long Xuan hurriedly stroked its rabbit head and comforted it. This child, its temper was truly too big.

That tree was of little use to Long Xuan, so he didn't feel much, but the rabbit was truly furious. That was what it was going to use to refine pills, and now it had been stripped of its bark and leaves by someone. It was simply about to faint from anger.

Long Xuan finally understood the rabbit's intention to use living wood to refine pills. Just as he wanted to say "wasteful," he suddenly froze.

The rabbit wanted to use living wood to refine pills? It had a pill formula related to living wood? After Long Xuan was stunned, he was completely unable to calm down.

"You actually have a pill formula related to living wood? Then why didn't you say so earlier? Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Hurry up and write down the pill formula for me. I'll help you check if there are any errors in the pill formula. Don't refine it blindly."

At this moment, Long Xuan's heart was beating wildly, and he was excited. This was truly an unexpected joy.

No wonder the rabbit was so excited when it saw the living wood, constantly fluttering in the insect-breeding bag, like a madman.

At this moment, Long Xuan finally understood. It actually had a pill formula related to living wood.

He didn't doubt at all why the rabbit would know such a heaven-defying pill formula.

The rabbit had stayed in the famous Yaoguang Female Emperor Tomb for such a long time, read a large number of pill formulas in the ancient tomb, and knowing a heaven-defying pill formula was a perfectly normal thing.

One had to know that the Yaoguang Female Emperor had once unified the entire Gu World, mastered the wealth of the entire Gu World, and what heaven-defying pill formula did she not have in her hands?

What was strange about the rabbit knowing a pill formula about living wood?

Regarding the pill formula for living wood, the medicinal effect must be related to increasing lifespan. This was something that didn't need to be thought about.

This was truly someone sending a pillow when he was sleepy, solving his urgent need.

He was currently researching the longevity Gu formula, and it was exactly when his thinking was blank, and he was in urgent need of reference.

Didn't this opportunity for reference come? The rabbit sent him inspiration.

Stones from other hills could serve to polish the jade of this one. As long as the principle of the longevity pill formula was mastered, then when deducing the longevity Gu formula, it would definitely be twice the result with half the effort, which could greatly shorten the construction period.

Even the materials could be copied directly. One had to know that the materials on the Gu formula were not limited to insects; many dead things could be used on the Gu formula.

Long Xuan had a premonition that by referring to the longevity pill formula, he would likely be able to research the longevity Gu formula in no time.

Afterward, Long Xuan moved a straw Gu hut made of tree bark over, placed it in front of the rabbit, and said: "Hurry up and write it. I have already taught it a lesson for you."

"After you write out the longevity pill formula, I will peel off a few pieces of bark from this house to reward you."

Hearing this, the rabbit's eyes lit up, and it finally had light. It was no longer making a scene and readily wrote out the longevity pill formula for Long Xuan.

Not long after, a pill formula written in terrible handwriting was completed by the rabbit. The words on the pill formula were crooked and twisted, simply unbearable to look at.

Long Xuan frowned and stared for a long time before he could see what was written on it. The words on it were simply like cockroaches crawling. It was difficult for him to recognize them.

But he also understood. After all, it was a rabbit. Could you expect a rabbit to write good handwriting?

Long Xuan was already satisfied.

After he quickly glanced at the pill formula, he soon frowned, looked at the rabbit with a strange expression, his gaze complex.

The pill formula was indeed real. With his pharmacology, he was enough to judge it. After the golden finger identified for a long time that those ghost drawings were words, it also showed progress, further proving the authenticity of this pill formula.

But you have to understand one thing: pill formulas are like Gu formulas. The more heaven-defying the pill formula, the more materials it needs, the rarer the materials, and the more expensive they are. A considerable part of the materials must have been extinct.

How could a pill formula with living wood as the main material be simple? It would be strange if the materials inside were not extinct.

Then what was the point of the rabbit refining pills? It couldn't even collect the materials, and it still wanted to refine pills?

It was happy for nothing, racked its brains to get the living wood, and in the end, it was all in vain.

This rabbit—no, this spirit medicine—probably didn't know at all that many spirit medicines in this world had been extinct. It was truly a silly rabbit.

Long Xuan didn't know how to comfort it, whether he should tell it this cruel fact.

Forget it, it was better to take it to the Library Tower and popularize common sense in this area for it.

Two months later, Long Xuan picked up a lower-grade Gu formula with hundreds of materials and showed a slight smile.

Sure enough, the pill formula sent by the rabbit was of great reference significance. After he mastered the principle of longevity in the pill formula, he only used two months to create the longevity Gu formula.

However, this Gu formula was only a lower-grade Gu formula, which could only increase lifespan by sixty years, and it was only effective for the straw Gu.

He ordered his clones to quickly collect the materials on the Gu formula and immediately refine the longevity Gu. He couldn't wait to know whether the longevity Gu he conceived could upgrade the straw Gu, and whether it could upgrade from the original lower-grade Gu worm to a middle-grade Gu worm.

Whether the straw Gu that became a middle-grade Gu worm could possess the ability to carry living things for teleportation—these were all things he urgently wanted to know, and they were also things he wanted to experiment with immediately.

As for the materials needed for the longevity Gu, the Western Lands Long Clan had sent him many ready-made ones, and the few missing materials could soon be collected. The materials for lower-grade Gu worms were not expensive. If he was fast, he could immediately refine the Gu today.

If he was lucky, the longevity Gu could really achieve the effect he expected, then his straw Gu would be able to complete its transformation in a few days. That's right, constantly devouring the longevity Gu was the transformation route Long Xuan thought of for the straw Gu.

It was just that whether this transformation route was reliable remained to be verified.

Long Xuan put the longevity Gu formula into a small box with satisfaction. This time, the rabbit had made a great contribution to him.

Just as he was thinking about the straw Gu in his heart, his straw Gu suddenly appeared, with a letter in its mouth, and quickly handed it to Long Xuan.

He took the letter, opened it, and looked at it, finding that it was Long Qian looking for him, so he immediately walked down from the pavilion on the mountain peak.

After walking out of the magic cube array, he saw Long Qian standing honestly in front of the magic cube array, his eyes full of contemplation.

He had learned his lesson this time, no matter what, he didn't dare to go in again, and directly used the straw Gu's letter-sending method to call Long Xuan out.

As soon as Long Xuan came out, he retracted his gaze and said straight to the point: "I came here this time to send you materials. The family wants you to speed up the research progress of the dragon blood battle Gu formula."

"Except for endangered insect species and top-grade spirit insects, almost all types of spirit insects in the Western Lands have been sent to you."

Only then did Long Xuan discover that the location not far away was piled with insect-breeding bags, which piled up into several mountain peaks, simply piled up like a mountain.

Long Xuan was immediately shocked. Did the Western Lands Long Clan go to rob? How did they collect so many spirit insects.

It could even cover all types of spirit insects in the Western Lands. It was simply frightening. When did they become so rich?

Long Xuan had an expression of incredulity and asked suspiciously: "What on earth did you do? Where did you get so many spirit insects? Who on earth did you rob?"

He wouldn't believe it even if he died that the Western Lands Long Clan would be so rich. They must have robbed someone.
