Chapter 206: Body Cultivator

Time flew by, and five days passed. During these five days, Long Xuan chose to put aside the matter of livering the technique and focused all his efforts on mining Geng Metal Essence from the Bai Clan's mining area, mining until his hands were soft.

And just as he had guessed, ever since the Bai Clan's people were slaughtered by the Long Clan, the Long Clan sent all the miners to the Bai Clan's mining area, and they completely stopped mining in their own mining area.

All the Long Clan Gu cultivators ran there to mine with high spirits every day, even happier than mining in their own mine.

Don't look at the Bai Clan's mining area as being smaller, but the surface Geng Metal was far more than the Long Clan's mining area. Long Xuan mined until his hands cramped these past few days, but he finally managed to scrape the surface Geng Metal Essence of the Bai Clan's mining area clean in five days.

The reason it took so long was that he also mined many Geng Metal Essences buried deep. Every time he mined a piece of Geng Metal Essence, he had to dig a mining tunnel and update the map once, so it naturally took longer.

However, he chose to give up on the deeper Geng Metal Essences. Some Geng Metal Essences were buried at such depths that you would need to dig for ten days or even a month to mine them out. How could he have that much time?

On this day, he returned to his residence, physically and mentally exhausted. Opening the door, he saw a Straw Gu enthusiastically building a house in the room, and the building material used was the Geng Metal all over the floor.

Long Xuan, this mining tycoon, had the conditions, so he let it squander it casually.

However, Geng Metal Essence was not allowed. Geng Metal Essence was simply too rare. Even though he was about to mine all the Geng Metal Essence in this Geng Metal mine vein, he still felt that the Geng Metal Essence was not enough. How could he give it to it to build a house?

At this time, this Geng Metal house already had a prototype. The house was shining with gold, as if it were covered with a layer of gold, extremely beautiful. Long Xuan liked it at first sight.

Undoubtedly, the grade of the Geng Metal house must be higher than the Fourth-Rank Spirit Wood house.

He felt that this Geng Metal house could be placed in the Central Region. The strength of Geng Metal should be able to support cross-region transmission.

After watching the Straw Gu build the house with high spirits for a while, he felt that the exhaustion of the day was swept away, and then he walked into a secret chamber.

In this secret chamber, there was a large cauldron, and 0.4% progress appeared on the cauldron.

What this large cauldron was refining was exactly the Medicine Gu. Long Xuan, through application, returned to Black Stone City once.

He exchanged the remaining materials for refining the Medicine Gu and some other things that could be used with the contribution he had just obtained, and then returned to the Geng Metal mine vein, refining the Medicine Gu while mining.

Because the Straw Gu Hut could travel back and forth between the two places instantly, this process did not waste much of his time.

Long Xuan looked at the progress on the cauldron, and after calculation, deduced that the time to become a Gu should be two hundred and fifty days. After recording this number, he closed the door and left again.

As for how to deduce the time to become a Gu through the progress, it was not difficult. It was 0.0% yesterday, and it became 0.4% today. It increased by 0.4 every day, and increasing for 250 days was enough to reach 100%.

Long Xuan walked out of the small wooden house with satisfaction. He had set up heavy formations around the small wooden house, and he didn't think anyone could sneak into his small wooden house.

With his current attainment in formations, even if Long Qian came, it would be a bit difficult to break his formation.

However, he was laughing happily, while others were looking miserable.

A group of geniuses came over with smiles, fantasizing about mining a piece of Geng Metal Essence, but they had been working hard for half a month, and they hadn't even seen the appearance of half a piece of Geng Metal Essence. How could they be happy?

Seeing that the few people were in a bad mood, Long Xuan walked over with a smile and comforted: "Don't be discouraged, isn't there still half a month left?"

He added a sentence in his heart at this time: "After another half month, you will find that you still can't mine Geng Metal Essence."

Long Qilin shook his head and said disappointedly: "Maybe there isn't half a month left. The news just came that the Great Yin Dynasty has already attacked."

"They are currently occupying the resource points that are difficult for various clans to take care of on a large scale, plundering the wealth of major resource points, clearly intending to occupy this land completely, rather than for revenge."

"And this Geng Metal mine vein is the resource point with the highest value. How could they let it go?"

"I believe they will attack here soon. How dare we mine at this time?"

As soon as these words came out, Long Xuan suddenly showed a look of shock. The Great Yin Dynasty had already invaded the Western Lands on a large scale? This news was simply too sudden, and he was completely unprepared.

He couldn't help but ask in shock: "How could it be so fast? Even if the Great Yin Dynasty really sent troops, they should slowly nibble from the edge of the Western Lands, right? How did they suddenly appear in the hinterland?"

Long Ruoxue smiled bitterly: "They clearly intend to completely incorporate the Western Lands into their territory, so they spared no expense to build a large teleportation array between the two places. One transmission can transmit hundreds of people."

"They built the teleportation array directly in the hinterland of the Western Lands. Of course, the speed of sending troops will be fast?"

"The Geng Metal mine vein must be their key target for plunder. Let's all be prepared."

"Don't go down to mine for a while recently. Save your energy. A great war may come at any time. Don't run out of energy to run when the Geng Metal mine vein can't be defended."

Long Dan said disdainfully: "They are simply seeking their own death. Building a teleportation array directly in the center of the Western Lands, they are equivalent to being surrounded. When the time comes, they will be attacked from all sides. I want to see if they can take care of it."

"Hard to say." Long Ruoxue sighed: "Shi Haojun slaughtered cities everywhere with Black Moon City as the center, and the hinterland has been emptied. Where is there much power to encircle the people of the Great Yin Dynasty?"

"We can only wait for the major forces on the edge of the Western Lands to send support, but reinforcements need time."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Great Yin Dynasty must intend to take Black Stone City at the fastest speed while the reinforcements of the Western Lands have not arrived."

"As long as Black Stone City is broken, the Great Yin Dynasty can defend against the danger and turn from offense to defense."

"If the forces of Black Stone City are completely eliminated, the various forces in the Western Lands will be leaderless and will be a piece of loose sand, and they will never think of stopping the Great Yin Dynasty's pace of swallowing."

"Black Stone City is probably already in heavy siege now. The Great Yin Dynasty will attack Black Stone City at all costs."

"This battle will become the key to this war. If the Great Yin Dynasty can take Black Stone City quickly before the reinforcements arrive, then the Western Lands will likely be completely occupied by the Great Yin Dynasty."

"If Black Stone City can drag it until the reinforcements arrive, then the Great Yin Dynasty will be encircled and fall into a passive position."

"So whether the many forces in the Western Lands survive or perish depends entirely on this battle." Long Ruoxue looked at the direction of Black Stone City with worry.

Hearing this, Long Xuan frowned slightly. Listening to Long Ruoxue's meaning, isn't the current situation in the Western Lands very bad?

This Geng Metal mine vein will be attacked as a key point next. It is simply too dangerous here. He must run quickly!

Long Xuan showed a solemn look and suddenly got up. No, the Geng Metal mine vein cannot be mined. He must run quickly. He doesn't want the remaining half month of mining time.

Long Ruoxue glanced at him, seemingly guessing what he was thinking, and said playfully: "Do you want to run?"

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. You can't leave."

"Ever since the Western Lands were slaughtered by Shi Haojun, a large area of ownerless land was vacated. The Extreme West Long Clan has always wanted to leave the barren land to develop in a rich place. How could they let go of this good opportunity?"

"A long time ago, the Extreme West Long Clan had already occupied a large area of ownerless land in the Western Lands."

"They set up some Long Clan Alliance, and their strength is really enough to swallow those territories."

"Since they have already occupied the territory of the Western Lands, they naturally became a force in the Western Lands, and of course, they must be included in the attack range of the Great Yin Dynasty."

"So you can't run. You will definitely participate in this battle." Long Ruoxue glanced at Long Xuan, revealing a belly-black smile.

Hearing this, Long Xuan's face suddenly turned black...

At the same time, Black Stone City.

Black Stone City has just been unsealed, and now it is going to be sealed again.

At this time, outside Black Stone City, it was pitch black. Under the city wall, there were people wearing black costumes everywhere, holding various weapons, looking at the top of the city wall with expressionless faces, and the number was simply uncountable.

No need to think, the number of people outside was far more than the Gu cultivators in the city.

Because in that region with countries in the Moon Soil, besides Gu cultivators, there is another profession, Body Cultivator.

The lower limit of this profession, Body Cultivator, is extremely low. There is no threshold for cultivation. As long as there is meat, and one can eat enough, anyone can become a Body Cultivator. Under such circumstances, the number of Body Cultivators can be imagined.

It's just that the combat power of this profession with an extremely low lower limit, Body Cultivator, is generally very weak. A cannon-fodder level Body Cultivator might be worth one Outer Gu of a Gu cultivator.

Of course, the upper limit of Body Cultivator is not weak, and it can be on par with Gu cultivators.

But the path of body refining is simply too difficult. People who can refine their physique to the peak are very few, and they must have body refining techniques comparable to Long Xuan's level.

So the strongest in this world are generally Gu cultivators.

But although Body Cultivators are weak, they can't stand the large number. Seeing the dense Body Cultivators under the city wall, the faces of the Black Stone City Gu cultivators standing on the city wall turned white.

No matter how weak Body Cultivators are, can you fight ten Body Cultivators alone? The huge group of Body Cultivators applied in war is simply too terrifying. Once the Body Cultivator army passes, it is enough to trample most Gu cultivator forces.

Because Body Cultivators are simply free of charge, there are as many as you want.

At this time, the City Lord Yan Pojun finally walked onto the city wall surrounded by a group of Gu Emperors.

When he saw the uncountable Body Cultivators below, his face turned black.

Although the major clans of Black Stone City can all take out tens of thousands of Gu cultivators, these manpower are scattered in various cities and places in the Western Lands. If they are all squeezed into one city, the resources are simply not enough to divide.

So it's good that the Gu cultivators in Black Stone City can squeeze out ten or twenty thousand. They simply cannot compete with the Body Cultivator army outside the city.

Yan Pojun clenched his fists, his face gloomy enough to drip water.

Yao Chen leaned over and looked under the city wall, his face solemn: "It is the main force of the Great Yin Dynasty, the Black Fire Legion, and everyone is armored, wearing at least a set of low-grade spirit tools. It's not easy to handle!"

"They built a large teleportation array here. With such a huge number of people, there is no need to consider the pressure of logistics. The one who will be dragged down first may be us."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces turned ugly.
