Chapter 5 Gu Refining in Progress

The steps of making a Gu are very simple. You just need to gather all the spirit insects needed in the Gu recipe, and then put them into the Gu pot and starve them for a while, forcing them to devour each other. After a while, they will become a Gu.

If it is some insect species that do not like to fight, some other means are needed to stimulate the ferocity in their bodies, but these means are not what he can understand for the time being.

It takes time for spirit insects to devour each other. Some need to wait for 49 days, some need to wait for 81 days, and some powerful Gu species even need to wait for three years. There is no fixed number.

It is okay to spend a long time to make a Gu. The difficulty lies in the failure rate of making a Gu. Some Gu recipes have a success rate of one in ten, and some have a success rate of one in a thousand. Those who are unlucky may not be able to make a Gu even after ten thousand times of making it.

Once the Gu recipe fails, all materials will be lost, and all the resources invested will be wasted.

Long Xuan has no idea what the success rate of this Gu recipe is. He just prepared ten sets of materials and bought ten Gu pots for making Gu, intending to make Gu at the same time.

Many Gu cultivators refine Gu in this way, casting a wide net to catch big fish, and saving time.

Even if the Gu is too heavy, it doesn't matter. You can sell the extra Gu worms, not only will you not lose money, but you will make a profit.

It is worth mentioning that Gu worms cannibalize each other, so each Gu cultivator can only raise one Gu worm of the same kind. If you refine too many, you can only trade them out as soon as possible.

However, Long Xuan soon found that his preparations seemed redundant, and he discovered another function of the golden finger.

When refining Gu, you can also see the progress on the Gu cup. Once the progress reaches 100%, it is the day when the Gu is completed.

Then the question is, if the spirit worm in a Gu cup is destined not to become a Gu, will the progress still be displayed?

Then will the Gu cup that can show the progress definitely become a Gu, and will the Gu cup that does not show the progress be destined to fail in refining Gu?

Then can he open the Gu cup that has no progress immediately, and then find a good time to refine the Gu again until the Gu cup can see the progress.

Long Xuan's scalp is about to explode.

That is to say, his success rate of refining Gu may be 100%, and he does not need to gamble on the damn success rate like other Gu cultivators, and does not need to worry about wasting materials.

He felt that he could challenge the heaven-defying Gu recipe with a success rate of one in ten thousand.

Long Xuan's breathing became rapid, and the effect of this golden finger was a bit heaven-defying.

Time passed in a flash, and 49 days passed, and Long Xuan's ten Gu cups finally moved.

Just as he expected, once a number appeared on the Gu cup, the success rate must be 100%, and the moment the number became 100%, it was the day of Gu.

It was precisely because of the reminder of the number that Long Xuan waited early today and witnessed the scene of the Gu worm breaking out of the cup with his own eyes.

Long Xuan opened his eyes wide, and his excitement could not be suppressed.

The ten Gu cups changed almost at the same time, and ten red cockroaches crawled out of the Gu cups one after another.

Sure enough, all ten Gu cups were Gu, without any waste of materials, and the success rate was 100%.

This was totally unimaginable to the others.

Long Xuan ran over excitedly, took out the Gu jar and put it on its body, and packed it into ten pieces.

He did not forget the taboo of Gu worms, cannibalism.

To prevent them from devouring each other, they must be separated as soon as possible.

After doing all this, Long Xuan had time to take it close and study it carefully.

He had already named the new Gu species that debuted in this world Xiaoqiang Gu.

Long Xuan pierced his finger with a needle, dripped a drop of blood on the head of Xiaoqiang Gu, and simply completed the blood contract ceremony.

From the moment he established a soul connection with it, although Long Xuan could not communicate with it through language, he quickly knew its ability through the power of the soul.

Things were exactly as he expected. The Gu worm made from hundreds of cockroaches had the ability of Xiaoqiang's immortality.

Of course, it was not absolutely immortal. Because the research and development funds were too small, the most common materials were used. There was still too much power to kill Xiaoqiang, but it can be summarized as the conventional attack ability of the same level is immortal.

To truly achieve immortality, it is probably necessary to use top-grade spirit insects and cockroaches to refine Gu.

There are too many ways to kill the Xiaoqiang Gu refined from low-grade cockroaches. It is far from being immortal. It is more realistic to say that it is more resistant to beatings.

The ability to resist beatings may not be a big deal in the eyes of the big clans, but it is definitely a pretty good ability in the world of casual cultivators.

Long Xuan is already very satisfied. He has never thought of using a bunch of the cheapest materials to create a real immortal body. That is absolutely impossible.

He placed the Xiaoqiang Gu in the center of his palm with satisfaction and liked this debut work very much.

According to the classification of Gu worm quality in this world, his Xiaoqiang Gu should belong to the low-grade Gu worm.

The quality of Gu worms in this world is divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.

The top-grade Gu worm is the king of Gu and is what all Gu cultivators desire most.

The dream of all Gu cultivators is to refine a top-grade Gu worm in their lifetime. Every top-grade Gu worm has a fatal attraction to Gu cultivators.

However, it is extremely difficult to refine the top-grade poisonous insects, and there are very few people who own them.

Long Xuan was determined to create a top-quality Gu recipe, and refining top-quality Gu worms was also his dream.

It was impossible for him to refine top-quality Gu worms the first time he refined Gu. The quality of Gu worms was determined by the main material in the Gu recipe.

The so-called main material is the one that will definitely laugh to the end after all the spirit insects in the Gu recipe fight each other.

The main material must have the highest combat power among all the materials in the Gu recipe, and it must be kept until the end, otherwise the death of the main material means that the Gu refining has failed.

If the main material is a top-quality spirit insect, then the Gu worm refined is a top-quality Gu worm.

Similarly, the main material of Xiaoqiang Gu is a low-quality material, so no matter how strange its ability is, it will be classified as a low-quality Gu worm.

But in Long Xuan's opinion, although Xiaoqiang Gu is the weakest low-quality Gu worm, its ability to withstand beatings may be more practical than that of a medium-quality Gu worm.

But only one Gu worm of the same kind can be used, and there was a small accident in the Gu refining this time, resulting in nine more.

How to deal with the remaining nine Xiaoqiang Gu became a problem. He couldn't just waste them and feed them to Brother Ji.

After thinking it over, Long Xuan decided to sell the extra Gu worms like other casual cultivators.

There are many casual cultivators who sell unique Gu worms in the market, and it is not uncommon to create your own Gu recipe in this world.

Because the materials of low-grade Gu recipes may be in the single digits, or even just two materials. It is possible to guess a Gu recipe by using the method of following fate.

Many casual cultivators without inheritance use the method of following fate to guess Gu worms, so unique Gu recipes are everywhere in this world, and everyone has the ability to create their own Gu recipes.

It's just that the unique Gu recipes of casual cultivators are often repeated and are generally very weak because of the small number of materials.

However, the best Gu recipe is definitely not something that a normal person can create. Long Xuan can show his ability to create his own Gu recipe, but he must not show his ability to create the best Gu recipe.

So it is not a conspicuous thing for him to go to the market to sell his unique Gu worms, and he can do it with confidence.

He was too poor now, and urgently needed a huge amount of money to buy the black iron and the top-grade spirit stone.

He could even set up a stall like other casual cultivators to sell his unique Gu worms for a long time.

The cost of Xiaoqiang Gu was very cheap, but the selling price could be very high. What was even more exaggerated was that there was no failure rate, which was a huge profit.

As for being bought and used against him by others, he didn't care at all. After all, it was a low-grade Gu worm. He actually had a better choice. Xiaoqiang Gu was just a transition for him and would be eliminated soon. It didn't matter what others did with it.

But now he couldn't find the materials at all, so he could only use Xiaoqiang Gu as a substitute temporarily.

The better choice he mentioned was actually the famous water bear in his previous life.

In terms of immortality, cockroaches were completely younger brothers in front of water bears.

Water bears can withstand ultra-high temperatures of 151℃ and ultra-low temperatures of minus 272℃.

It cannot be killed in the deepest Mariana Trench, nor can it be killed by atomic bomb radiation. Scientists have sent it into space, but it has not been killed. It can survive for thirty years even without food and water.

Water bears are resistant to hypoxia and vacuum, high pressure and low pressure, can regenerate broken limbs, and can even repair DNA damage.

The vitality of water bears can be called a world miracle. The earth has experienced five mass extinction events, which have wiped out most creatures, but it has not been wiped out.

However, the size of water bears is too small. Most water bears are only 3 to 5 microns, which are so small that it is difficult to observe with the naked eye. Only with the help of a microscope can its shape be clearly seen.

Therefore, if you want to refine water bear Gu, you must first refine microscopic Gu.

This requires him to create a Gu recipe, which cannot be completed in a short time.

When the microscopic Gu comes out, he will see more microorganisms.

You must know that microorganisms are not yet discovered by Gu cultivators in this world. There are a large number of species, but they have not been named and have never been captured by anyone. What a huge treasure trove of resources.

The microscopic insects in the whole world will belong to him alone.

In addition to being divided into two categories, internal and external, the poisonous insects in this world can be further subdivided into: natural system, strengthening system, animal system, plant system, pupil system, dark system, magic system, special system, production system...

He may create a new school - the microscopic school, and he will become the founder of this school.

Long Xuan is full of ambitions for the future.
