251. Chapter 251: Escaping the Influence Range of the Realm Bead

Time flew by, and two months passed. In the Soul Study, Long Xuan looked at the book titled "Mass Alchemy" in his hand, revealing an extremely proud smile.

Just as he had expected, cross-grade alchemy was theoretically absolutely achievable, as long as the people refining the pills together were tacit enough, preferably clones or multiples, otherwise it would be extremely difficult to succeed.

Long Xuan met the conditions and, after two months, finally researched the method for cross-grade alchemy.

And Yang Zhan had already given him the materials for refining the Ice-Fire Polar Pill. He could now try to refine a third-grade spirit pill across grades. Long Xuan was eager to try.

It was also a coincidence that just a moment ago, thanks to the unremitting efforts of his clone, he had successfully broken through and promoted to a Spirit Refining stage peak Gu Cultivator, which meant he now had more spiritual power and a higher cultivation realm, making the difficulty of refining a third-grade spirit pill across grades even smaller. He had broken through at just the right time.

Actually, he should have broken through long ago. The reason his breakthrough speed was so slow this time was entirely because the side effects of opening the Life and Death Gate were simply too great, making him almost drop in cultivation realm. It took him a long time to make up for it; otherwise, he should have broken through long ago.

At the same time, during these two months, the Divine Dragon ship finally sailed out of the influence range of the Realm Bead. Now, although his Straw Gu could not lead to the Western Lands, the Far West Region had not been affected by the Realm Bead, so his return to the medicine garden in the Far West Region was completely fine.

Long Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered his clone to go back once, tossing the spirit herbs in the Great Medicine Garden into the World Tree seed. He was moving house.

Since he already had the World Tree seed as a mobile medicine garden, there was no need for him to fix the medicine garden in one place.

How could a fixed medicine garden be as convenient as a portable one? He would frequently change maps in the future, so a fixed medicine garden definitely couldn't be used. Establishing a mobile medicine garden was imperative.

Once the divine trees planted in the medicine garden were moved into the World Tree seed, with these divine trees as the array eyes, this Divine Dragon ship would become even more terrifying.

However, after the Straw Gu could lead to the Far West Region, Long Xuan did not report safety for the first time. He decided to wait a bit longer. It wouldn't be too late to report safety when the war over there ended.

Otherwise, if he appeared at this time, wouldn't he be caught to participate in the war again? He was so busy now that his feet didn't touch the ground; how could he have time to participate in the war?

However, reporting safety to Long Ziyan was the right thing to do, so as not to make her worry.

However, Long Ziyan's reply made him fall into deep thought.

Long Ziyan's reply was to tell him not to come back in the short term, preferably to fake his death, hide his name, and be a scattered cultivator outside for a period of time, and not to return to the Long family until he broke through to Gu King.

Because he had exposed too many things in that battle, especially the secret technique that could kill enemies across large cultivation realms, which was enough to arouse the greed of any Gu King.

The danger brought about by these things came not only from the outside but also from the inside.

As the Long Clan Alliance became larger and larger, there were more and more unfamiliar Long Clan Gu Kings in the alliance. The conduct of these Gu Kings was not guaranteed.

After he went back, he would most likely be asked to hand over the things exposed in that battle.

Of course, this matter was only a speculation and had not happened yet. Long Ziyan's worry was just a precaution, but Long Xuan took her speculation to heart.

Character is not divided by surname. As the Long Clan Alliance grows day by day, there are all kinds of monsters and demons inside, so he really has to be on guard.

Secondly, Jun Zaitian, whom he killed in that battle, had a significant background, and both his parents were peak Gu Kings.

Although the Jun Clan was a very law-abiding family, it didn't mean that everyone in the clan would definitely be law-abiding.

If you really thought that the Jun Clan was a law-abiding family and would 100% not take action against you, then you would be too naive.

So Long Ziyan suggested that he temporarily not go home and first hide in other regions for a period of time.

Of course, this was also her precautionary speculation. Things might not happen; maybe she was overthinking it.

But Long Xuan definitely didn't dare to bet his own life. He had always been cautious, and even if there was only a one-percent possibility, he would never take the risk.

No matter which of these two reasons it was, it was enough to convince him not to return to the Long family in the short term.

After receiving this letter, he didn't hesitate at all and immediately followed Long Ziyan's suggestion, preparing to leave the Long family and be a scattered cultivator outside for a period of time.

Speaking of which, before he even entered the Long family, he had already made plans to leave immediately after stealing all the knowledge and inheritance of the Long family.

He didn't expect that he had dragged it on for so long unknowingly. Now that too many secrets had been exposed, it was time to leave.

Long Xuan had many thoughts and finally got up, deciding to return to the medicine garden in person.

Before, he was busy researching pill formulas, and it was always his clone that went back and forth to the medicine garden.

Now that the pill formula had finally been successfully researched, he urgently needed a hidden location to refine pills. He, the main body, finally decided to go back once.

Refining the Ice-Fire Polar Pill could attract heavenly anomalies, so he could only find a quiet place in the Far West Region to refine pills.

The Far West Region was vast and sparsely populated, and most of the Gu Cultivators had been pulled to participate in the war.

So, if any anomalies were triggered by refining pills over there, they would basically not be noticed by powerful Gu Cultivators.

It could only be said that the Straw Gu hut recovered at just the right time; otherwise, he really wouldn't know how to cover up the matter of the anomalies.

The hut placed in the medicine garden in the Far West Region was a Living Wood hut. When Long Xuan crawled out of it and took a deep breath of the familiar air, he immediately felt a sense of intimacy. Everything here made him feel very intimate; this was the feeling of home.

He smiled and walked towards the medicine garden. What came into view was a sea of flowers that couldn't be seen at a glance, with countless Ice Bees flying on it. Countless Ice Bees were happily collecting honey, as if they were even humming a song.

During the time he was away, the scale of the Ice Bees had become even larger, reaching about one hundred thousand.

After all, he didn't collect taxes, so they had more food and were more capable of reproducing offspring.

Long Xuan revealed a gratified smile. Since he was back, this group of Ice Bees would definitely have to move house.

He wanted to transplant all the flower-type spirit herbs into the World Tree seed, and the Ice Bees would also become the first batch of creatures in this world.

Long Xuan looked at the Bee King Bing Bing, who was sleeping in a huge beehive, and couldn't bear to disturb her, so he left soon.

All the Ice Bees were very diligent and came out to collect honey before dawn, except for this Bing Bing, who became a glutton and lazy after becoming the Bee King. She woke up and ate ready-made food directly. Her three meals a day were all taken care of by her subordinates. She really knew how to enjoy life.

After leaving the garden, Long Xuan soon saw Brother Chicken, who was lying in the chicken coop.

Good fellow, he hadn't seen him for many years, and he had actually become fat again. During the time he wasn't here, he was unsupervised and didn't know how many good things he had stolen. Now he was so fat that the chicken coop could hardly contain him.

At this time, this Brother Chicken was also sleeping soundly, completely unaware that his master had returned.

However, Long Xuan wished he was asleep. If he was asleep, it would be more convenient for him to steal eggs.

Speaking of which, he hadn't tasted tea eggs for a long time. Long Xuan felt a craving.

He looked around to find the whereabouts of the eggs.

Logically speaking, he hadn't been home for several years, and the accumulated eggs should have piled up like a mountain.

However, Long Xuan searched for a long time but couldn't find a single egg, as if all the eggs had disappeared into thin air. They were hidden really well.

He couldn't help but frown. Where are the eggs? Where are my eggs? Could it be that Brother Chicken ate them? Can he produce and sell them himself?

Long Xuan was unwilling to give up and searched carefully again. Finally, in the chicken coop, he found an open storage bag.

Long Xuan's eyes lit up. Good fellow, this chicken had become a spirit; he actually learned to use a storage bag, which really made him search for a long time.

Long Xuan smiled deviously, slowly reached his hand in, tried his best not to make a sound, and slowly took out the open storage bag.

He looked inside and immediately beamed with joy.

Let you use a storage bag. Now it's good, you've been caught in one fell swoop by him, right? Good fellow, you really laid a lot.

Long Xuan carefully left the chicken coop position.

Next, he went to the four locations where the Divine Dragon Wood was planted in the southeast, northwest, and found that the Medicine Gu had indeed not been lazy during the time he was away. He had already ripened these four Divine Dragon Woods to be extremely thick.

Long Xuan nodded secretly. Once this batch of Divine Dragon Milk was extracted and the eye drops were prepared, it would be enough for the Heavenly Mechanism Eye to complete its transformation in a perfect state.

The transformation time of the Heavenly Mechanism Eye should be before arriving at the Sky Island. Long Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

Next, Long Xuan went to the Spirit Spring to look at the Golden Dragon Fish and that Lighthouse Jellyfish.

The Spirit Spring was full of energy, and the Golden Dragon Fish could completely satisfy their daily consumption needs by absorbing a large amount of spiritual power. So, even if there was little food in the Spirit Spring, it wouldn't make them starve to death in a short time, but it definitely wouldn't work without food for a long time.

After Long Xuan returned, he immediately fed them a large amount of spirit insects, letting them have a full meal. All the Golden Dragon Fish looted the spirit insects in the water like crazy. It looked like they were really starving.

After that, Long Xuan moved them as well, throwing them all into the huge lake in the World Tree seed.

Although the Spirit Spring was more suitable for the growth of the Golden Dragon Fish, the area was simply too small. If no one fed them, it couldn't satisfy the daily needs of the Golden Dragon Fish. Eating spiritual power without eating food was not a long-term solution after all.

And Long Xuan was too lazy to waste time feeding the fish. He didn't know how many times such situations of not having time to feed the fish would happen in the future. So, he simply threw all the Golden Dragon Fish into a large lake, letting them solve the food problem themselves, and he wouldn't care about them in the future.

As long as the lake area is large enough, the fish are equivalent to wild ones, and there is no need for Gu Cultivators to waste time feeding them.

Next, Long Xuan went to the ranch, accidentally slapped a sheep to death, picked some small chili peppers from the vegetable garden, and had a beautiful lamb hot pot.

The chili peppers containing spiritual power in this world were much spicier than the chili peppers in his previous life, and the bodies of Gu Cultivators were very tolerant of spiciness, so he ate extremely satisfyingly.

After eating and drinking enough, Long Xuan finally left the medicine garden, preparing to find a remote place to refine the Ice-Fire Polar Pill.

Time flew by, and another half a month passed. On this day, in a remote barren mountain in the Far West Region, dark clouds suddenly gathered, and a strong wind blew. The strong wind rolled up the dark clouds. It was sunny just a moment ago, but now it was suddenly a scene of the end of the world.

He didn't know how long the heavenly anomaly lasted. When the dark clouds in the sky dispersed and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the dark clouds again, the earth gradually brightened.

The earth returned to a scene of wind and sunshine again, with butterflies dancing on the flowers, as if the scene just now had never happened.

In a mountain cave, Long Xuan looked at the three peculiar spirit pills in his palm that were red and blue. The spirit pills were cold on one side and hot on the other. He couldn't help but let out a wild laugh:

"Hahaha, I, a second-grade alchemist, can actually refine a third-grade spirit pill across grades. Who else is there?"

"In this world, the only one who can refine pills across grades is probably me, Long Xuan!"

"What's more, this is a third-grade spirit pill that is enough to attract heavenly anomalies. The difficulty of refining is rare in ancient and modern times."

"Even a third-grade alchemist couldn't refine a third-grade spirit pill, but it was refined by me, a mere second-grade alchemist."

"With such an achievement, I can be considered unprecedented and unrepeatable! I am truly a heaven-sent genius!"

"That I was born in this era is truly the sorrow of all alchemy geniuses of this era!"

Hearing Long Xuan boast about himself like this, the Honesty Gu turned its head away, unable to bear watching anymore. It couldn't listen anymore.

After Long Xuan vented his emotions, he finally divided the three Ice-Fire Polar Pills into three pill bottles and carefully collected them in his storage ring.

The Ice-Fire Polar Pill was not only useful for Yang Zhan, but also useful for him. Who could guarantee that he wouldn't be poisoned by someone else's Gu in the future?

In case he was really plotted against by someone in the future and poisoned by some deadly Gu, the Ice-Fire Polar Pill was absolutely something that could save his life.

Collecting a few more just in case, being prepared for a rainy day only had benefits and no harm for him.

He was excited and returned to the medicine garden at the fastest speed, and through the Living Wood hut in the medicine garden, he instantly appeared in a bedroom on the Divine Dragon ship on the ocean.

At this time, the crew on the ship probably didn't know that this captain had lived on land for half a month without anyone knowing.

It had to be said that the Straw Gu was truly a bug-level existence in this world, and its ability was simply too destructive to the balance of the world.

After Long Xuan returned to the bedroom, he walked out of the room with a smile, preparing to let himself, a missing person, go out and show his face. He found Di Xin walking towards him, threw an insect breeding bag at him, and then returned to her room without saying a word and closed the door.

Long Xuan was stunned. He slowly opened the insect breeding bag and saw a pile of top-grade spirit insects inside. His expression changed drastically.

Good fellow, this was exactly the batch of materials he needed to refine the Three-Legged Golden Toad. Added to the batch of materials Yang Zhan gave him, the materials for refining the Three-Legged Golden Toad could be said to be basically complete.

She actually sent him materials at this time. Forget it, no need to think about it. This Di Xin must have a Straw Gu in her hand.

She must have just run to the land to play for a while through the Straw Gu hut like him and then came back.

Long Xuan threw the insect breeding bag directly into the World Tree seed and revealed a thoughtful look.

He felt that he could now start the plan to magically modify the Three-Legged Golden Toad Gu formula.

Just like that, Long Xuan had just opened the door and came out, and now he went back again, and the door was closed heavily.

After he returned to the room, he immediately entered the Soul Study and began to magically modify the Three-Legged Golden Toad Gu formula. He had just finished the task of refining the third-grade spirit pill and fell into busyness again. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 252 =====
