Chapter 420

"Alright, stop laughing, hurry up and put on some clothes!"

Long Xuan threw out a set of clothes, revealing a look of disgust. Black and dark, so ugly.

The Bone-Mending Blood-Melting Pill can only generate a physical body, but it cannot change clothes out of thin air. An old guy who doesn't wear clothes jumping around in front of him is simply stinging to the eyes.

Old Man Water only then discovered that he was actually not wearing clothes, and his old face couldn't help but blush.

Taking the clothes flying in the air and putting them on quickly, he smiled awkwardly and said: "Hehe! Little friend, the old man has nothing on him now. Can you gift the old man some pills for cultivation? I want all the Spirit-Increasing Pills from Grade One to Grade Three."

"After the old man recovers to the peak of the Gu King realm, I will return them to you with interest!"

"No problem!" Long Xuan took out bottles of pills from his storage ring and placed them on the ground. There were all the Spirit-Increasing Pills from Grade One to Grade Three, and soon they were piled up on the ground.

Most of these pills were from the storage bags of others, which he couldn't use at all, and a small part was refined by himself.

And the part of the pills he refined himself had been tampered with by him. One should not have the heart to harm others, but one must have the heart to guard against others. He couldn't trust Old Man Water one hundred percent at the moment, so he could only set up some dark hands for self-defense.

These dark hands were guaranteed to be undetectable even by a Gu King. Old Man Water would be fine for a lifetime if he didn't take action against him. In case Old Man Water had evil intentions, the Calamity Poison toxin in the pills would not be so easy to withstand even for a Gu King.

"I only have these pills for now. Come to me when you use them up. There are lightning rods I installed here. Even without Heavenly Water, the lightning here won't hurt you. Just cultivate here with peace of mind."

"I'm about to break through and need to go into seclusion for a while. Call me when the Tea Tasting Assembly is about to start."

After saying this, Long Xuan didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

Old Man Water looked at the four lightning rods arranged around him and secretly marveled.

He had noticed these four lightning rods long ago, and it wasn't hard to see their function. He truly couldn't imagine that just four such tall metal pillars could allow people nearby to ignore the bombardment of lightning.

He couldn't see their principle at all.

If humans had mastered this technology early, anyone could enter and leave the Thunder Swamp without injury, and the Thunder Swamp would never become a forbidden area in the eyes of humans again.

"It's truly a whimsical idea. I really don't know how he thought of it."

Old Man Water looked at the four lightning rods and was secretly shocked. After seeing Long Xuan's back walk far away, he finally walked over to collect the pills on the ground and walked toward a cave not far away.

After walking into the cave, he placed a pill gifted by Long Xuan in his palm and observed it carefully for a while, but didn't find any clues. However, being cautious by nature, he still didn't swallow this pill. He took out a storage ring out of thin air, took a pill from it, threw it into his mouth, and began to close his eyes and cultivate.

He didn't lie to Long Xuan. In that battle, his wealth was indeed lost.

But before the battle, he didn't carry all his wealth on him. How could all the eggs be put in one basket?

If he didn't have a single Gu, how could he dare to go to Shui Wuqing for revenge?

The reason he asked Long Xuan for pills was just to show that he had nothing on him, so as to avoid him developing the idea of killing and snatching treasures when he saw that he was only at the Spirit Sea Stage realm.

Although he was a peak Gu King soul and had many trump cards, he didn't need to be afraid of him, but he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble. After all, that kid had a master he couldn't afford to provoke.

Long Xuan returned to the main island and began to go into seclusion to work on creating the wine recipe.

This time, the wine recipe created was different from the past. The materials used in this wine recipe were World Tree fruits.

World Tree fruits are the highest-level materials in this world. The difficulty of creating a wine recipe with this as the main material can be imagined. Just the auxiliary materials are definitely not something that can be easily collected.

He could only create the wine recipe while ordering his clones to collect the expensive materials for the wine recipe.

Thus, that Master Song's Insect Armor Shop in the Sinful City, which had been closed for a long time, opened again.

Old rules: Master Song's products must be fine products. Every insect armor he produced had to be exchanged with specified materials, and Spirit Stone transactions were not accepted.

The materials that could be matched with World Tree fruits were one rarer than another. Using ordinary insect armor was clearly impossible to exchange for them.

Long Xuan gritted his teeth and made a batch of premium insect armor using a large amount of alloy.

This batch of insect armor was absolutely epoch-making. Its strength surpassed the insect armor of this era by far, much stronger than the Cold Iron Insect Armor sold before.

Most importantly, it was cheap. The characteristic of alloy is to synthesize a pile of very ordinary metals into a piece of extremely heaven-defying metal.

It seemed that the insect armor he made was heaven-defying, but in reality, the cost was almost nothing. His profit margin for selling insect armor was terrifyingly high.

As expected, after the alloy insect armor was released, it immediately became popular throughout the city. People came to buy alloy insect armor every day, and Master Song's Insect Armor Shop became popular again.

Time passed in a flash, and half a year went by.

In this half year, Long Xuan had already successfully researched the wine recipe. Because the main material of the wine recipe was World Tree fruits, and each fruit contained a world, a great thousand world, he named this kind of wine Great Thousand Wine.

The Great Thousand Wine recipe had been completed, and only the materials were missing.

In this half year, he used Master Song's Insect Armor Shop to collect seven or eight out of ten materials for the wine recipe, only missing three kinds of materials, which had not been collected even after half a year.

The materials that could be matched with World Tree fruits to make wine were truly too rare. If you were unlucky, let alone half a year, you might not be able to collect them even in ten years. Long Xuan had no way even if he was anxious.

On this day, an uninvited guest came to Master Song's Insect Armor Shop.

Long Xuan sat in the shop, yawning out of boredom. A man in a black robe walked into the shop and headed straight for the shop's treasure.

Master Song's Insect Armor Shop had three treasures, all of which were Gu King-level insect armor made of Fourth-Grade Alloy Saint Gold. The exchange condition was exactly the three materials he was missing. They had been placed here for more than half a year and no one had successfully exchanged them.

It was precisely because he had three Fourth-Grade insect armors in his shop that Long Xuan brought out a Gu King master who could refine Fourth-Grade insect armor to deter the small-minded, and no one had dared to come to his shop to make trouble to this day.

Because there was a Honesty Gu as a witness, everyone was deeply convinced that he had a terrifying master.

Looking at the black-robed person who suddenly walked into the shop, Long Xuan suddenly shuddered, and his sleepiness vanished instantly.

He looked at this mysterious black-robed person with a solemn gaze, his brows locked.

Most of the time, the clones sat in the shop. Only on this day did he sit in the shop out of boredom. Never expected a guest with a progress bar of five decimal places to come in.

A creature with such a long progress bar could not possibly be a human. What exactly is it? Could it be a transformed spirit beast?

Long Xuan became vigilant in his heart.

At this time, the black-robed person finally spoke: "Interesting, truly interesting. Clearly using Fourth-Grade metal, yet the hardness is harder than most Fifth-Grade metals."

"In this world where Gu King is the strongest, this kind of metal is already invincible. No one in the world can break it."

"Worthy of being the treasure of the shop. I would like to call these three insect armors the number one insect armor in the Gu World!" At this moment, the black-robed man looked very excited.

Long Xuan gently stroked the back of the Honesty Gu and smiled: "Senior truly has good eyes. The metal used for this kind of insect armor was obtained by my master from a ruin. The quantity is limited, and only these three insect armors could be made."

"This kind of metal is extremely strange. Even my master cannot see its origin, let alone know what its name is."

"Could it be that Senior is also an Insect Armor Master? After the insect armor is processed by the encryption array, most people don't have this kind of eye." (End of chapter)
