Chapter 478
: Long Dan's Current Situation
What happened at the Holy Gu Academy was just the tip of the iceberg. At this time, the entire world was in complete chaos due to the emergence of "The Great Heavenly Immortal Art".
In the streets and alleys of the cities in the Gu Realm, pedestrians have even fought each other for the books scattered on the streets, and blood has been shed. With the emergence of the Heavenly Grade Kung Fu, everyone has gone crazy.
There is no telling how many people picked up a copy of "Journey to the West" and brought themselves to death. Long Xuan greatly underestimated the appeal of the Heaven-level technique to the Gu practitioners of the world. Once the Heaven-level Gu recipe came out, the entire Gu world was in chaos, and the commotion caused was by no means small.
On this day, there were quite a few talented Gu practitioners who decided to change their techniques, and even a large number of Gu Kings abandoned their main techniques and chose to practice the "Dapin Tianxian Jue" from "Journey to the West".
At the same time, Taoism that appeared in the book had begun to rise in some parts of the world. As more and more people picked up "Journey to the West", the number of people joining Taoism continued to expand like a snowball.
The reason why the influence of "Journey to the West" spread so quickly was all because of Long Xuan.
The蓑咕 he created, after so many years of painstaking efforts by the Long family, has spread all over the world.
Long's express delivery business can already do this. As long as the money is in place, the transported goods can appear anywhere in the world within a few days.
Of course, this is only limited to inanimate objects. Teleporting living things still poses certain technical difficulties for the Long family at present.
Long Xuan was wealthy and powerful. After finding the Long family's express delivery business, he invested hundreds of millions of dollars, which allowed "Journey to the West" to appear in every corner of the world in a very short time.
When people all over the world heard that this novel contained a heavenly-level martial arts technique, they went crazy.
As the group of people watching Journey to the West began to expand rapidly, they generated a huge spiritual appetite. Shu Gu was completely overfed and his level jumped twice a day.
Two consecutive jumps a day is far from its limit. After people all over the world became fans of "Journey to the West", the spiritual appetite generated is not only enough to allow the Book Gu to jump two levels in a row, it is even possible for it to jump eight levels in a row.
The reason why the Book Gu upgraded two levels in a row was not because its limit was two levels, but because it could only upgrade two levels at most at present.
The realm of the insect cannot be higher than that of its master, so it certainly cannot surpass Long Xuan and continue to upgrade. It can only be forcibly suppressed in realm. Long Xuan has restricted its development and seriously hindered it.
On this day, just as Long Xuan was still imagining how powerful the book Gu that was born because of "Journey to the West" would become after people all over the world had watched "Journey to the West", the book Gu suddenly fainted right under his nose.
Long Xuan was stunned on the spot, and hurried over, holding the Book Gu in his palm, anxiously examining its body.
The sudden change in Shu Gu was beyond his expectations. Shu Gu was fine just now, but fainted without any warning. He was confused at this time and didn't know what had happened.
Thinking about the various unexpected changes that occurred every time he used elements from his previous life to create his own Gu recipes, the wine Gu, the poison Gu, and the tea Gu all had similar situations. He couldn't help but suspect that the book Gu might also have unexpected changes due to his innovation.
After holding the book Gu in his palm and examining it for a long time, Long Xuan's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed and a strange look appeared on his face.
After the investigation just now, he found that this book Gu seemed to be bloated and died because it had eaten too much.
Could it be that there are too many people reading Journey to the West, and the book Gu is overloaded? Long Xuan's expression became more and more strange.
He didn't know what to do when the Book Gu was in such a situation. The Book Gu fed on spiritual food, which was an illusory thing, invisible and colorless, and no one could see it.
This thing is very mysterious and difficult to understand. It is not a substance, and normal vomiting is definitely useless for Book Gu.
After thinking for a long time, Long Xuan was almost getting gray-haired, but he still couldn't find a way to cure the book Gu. In the end, he had no choice but to let it fend for itself.
"Damn! This is such a big step. If I had known, I would have promoted Journey to the West one region at a time."
"If Journey to the West is promoted to the whole world in an instant, it would be strange if the bookworm doesn't get too full. Alas! I was careless, and I don't know if I will get too full to death."
Long Xuan was frowning, and just when he didn't know what to do, suddenly a mysterious message flooded into his mind, and he was stunned.
It turned out that the Book Gu had eaten too much spiritual food and was growing very fast, and had already comprehended the second ability in "Journey to the West".
This second ability turned out to be the Seventy-Two Transformations, but due to his low level, he only comprehended a weakened version of the Seventy-Two Transformations.
Although the weakened version of the Seventy-Two Transformations can change everything, it does not change the entity but the opponent's vision.
That is to say, if he turns into a stone, it is not that his body has turned into stone, but that when others see him, they see a stone, and in fact his body has not changed at all.
It is worth mentioning that this is definitely not an illusion effect, and even an illusion master would not be able to find a loophole.
The greatest feature of the Seventy-Two Transformations is that it is almost impossible for others to detect the flaws. There are exceptions, but they are definitely not many in this world.
Long Xuan nodded with satisfaction. He was very satisfied with this ability. Although the ability to change everything could not increase the attack power, it was very practical and could be applied to any scenario.
How about turning yourself into a powerful divine beast? Will it scare away the Gu King that is chasing you?
How about turning yourself into a heaven-defying treasure? Will it attract the greed of your opponent? As long as the opponent gets close, you can easily launch a sneak attack.
What if I turned myself into my opponent's teammate or biological father? Can I easily kill him by sneak attack by taking advantage of his trust in his biological father?
The face-changing Gu has a fatal flaw, which is that it can only change the face but not the clothes, so it was impossible for him to complete such a fancy operation before.
But now that he has the ability to transform into seventy-two different forms, it is much easier for him to deceive people by pretending to be different Gu practitioners.
It is no exaggeration to say that the concealment of the Seventy-Two Transformations is even higher than that of the Face-Changing Gu. With the ability of the Seventy-Two Transformations, the Face-Changing Gu can basically be eliminated.
Thinking of all the ways that he could use the Seventy-Two Transformations to cheat people, Long Xuan revealed a sinister smile, and he couldn't wait to find someone to experiment with it.
The upper limit of the Seventy-Two Transformations is far more than this. This is just a weakened version of the Seventy-Two Transformations. In the future, if both the Gu cultivators in the spirit world and the Gu cultivators in the god world become fans of "Journey to the West", then can the word "weakened version" be removed from the word "Book Gu"?
If we remove the weakened three characters, the seventy-two transformations may be able to transform into everything in the world, and these changes are physical.
Once he turns into a mythical beast, his body will be that of the beast. Perhaps he can also possess the abilities of the beast after the transformation, which would be even more terrifying.
If the 72 transformations he imagined could really come true, he couldn't imagine how terrifying they would be. They were simply too extreme...
……
The accident with the book Gu was just a small episode. Long Xuan's life remained unchanged. He sold coffee Gu crazily every day. In his spare time, he would play chess with various geniuses. In order to seduce the top geniuses to play chess with him, Long Xuan spent a lot of money. The things sold in the coffee shop were no longer limited to coffee Gu.
Powerful insect armor, various elixirs, spiritual wines, spiritual teas that he created originally, and decent puppet spiritual weapons are all within his sales range.
Gradually, the top 30 geniuses on the Sheng Gu Academy's Prodigy List have all played chess with him, and 30 of his 361 chess pieces have already glowed.
With the talents of these thirty geniuses, as long as they can find the resources to break through, the probability of them becoming Gu Kings is more than 80%. This is what Long Xuan can judge based on his vision.
Refining the realm-breaking elixir is a simple matter for him. In this way, the probability of these thirty geniuses breaking through to the Gu King will be absolutely 100%, and there will be no accidents.
Of course, their breakthrough to the Gu King can be judged by their talent, but how far they can go in the end and whether they will die prematurely, no one can judge. Long Xuan can only open the blind box and try his luck.
How is it possible that none of these thirty geniuses will die in the future? If they encounter figures like the Burning Heaven Ancestor and the Qi Tian Ancestor, who can predict whether they will live or die and what will happen in the future?
There is an unpredictable situation in the sky, and people will be banished.
In order to increase the survival rate of this group of geniuses, Long Xuan could only give each of them a straw rain hut.
Although it is impossible to escape in wartime using the straw rain hut, once they are trapped in a dangerous place or being chased by someone, the straw rain hut can save their lives in such dangerous situations that will not cause immediate death.
Under this circumstance, the survival rate of these thirty geniuses will be greatly improved.
After playing chess with all the top 30 people on the Saint Gu Academy’s Prodigy Ranking, Long Xuan finally stopped.
He is very picky and does not accept all geniuses. Geniuses ranked below the top 30 on the Tianjiao list are not even in his eyes.
You should know that the Holy Gu Academy accepts disciples from all over the world, regardless of surname, without any restrictions. The overall quality of the geniuses in the academy is very high.
However, Long Xuan only selected the top 30, which shows his standard for genius.
There are probably not many people in the entire Gu world who can catch his eye. It is highly likely that he will not be able to light up 361 chess pieces in the Gu world.
After catching all the geniuses of the Holy Gu Academy, Long Xuan began to think about which geniuses he should find to play chess next and where he should look for them.
Actually, he knew quite a few super geniuses who completely satisfied his appetite, such as Long Dan, Long Yuyao, Di Xin, Qian Jinjin... These people were considered to be outstanding super geniuses in the entire Gu world, and might even be better than the geniuses of the Holy Gu Academy.
Moreover, these people are all old acquaintances with him, so playing a game of chess with them is effortless. He is bound to obtain these people's destiny chess pieces.
As for Long Ziyan, Little Medicine Boy, Zhu Jiuge... these geniuses, it's a pity that they rose too fast and had already defeated the Gu King. The ability of chess Gu is ineffective against the Gu King.
These people are the eternal pain in his heart, and he can only give up helplessly.
Long Xuan rolled his eyes and thought for a long time, and finally decided to start with Long Dan. He didn't know whether this big monster who also possessed the innate spiritual Gu had died after so many years.
Logically speaking, the Extreme Gu in Long Dan's body is completely on the same level as the Doom Gu. As long as he is alive, his future achievements will definitely not be bad.
Long Xuan took out the communication talisman that he and Long Dan had exchanged before. The reason why he didn't use the straw raincoat Gu was because his straw raincoat Gu only established diplomatic relations with Long Ziyan's straw raincoat Gu. His straw raincoat Gu couldn't instantly enter the straw raincoat Gu huts of other people without their consent.
What's more, the unlucky Long Dan's葑瓜 had already been blown to death by the genius named Bai when he was in the mortal country.
Although the蓮 Gu can be refined again, finding the newly refined蓮 Gu made from Dragon Dan in the vast virtual world is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Long Xuan got straight to the point and wrote on the communication talisman: Are you there? Did you survive the battle with the Black Wind Nation? I miss you so much after not seeing you for a long time. Where are you now? I want to go over and catch up with you and have a drink with you.
After leaving a few lines of words on the communication talisman, the talisman in his hand turned into a stream of light, flew into the distance and disappeared.
At the same time, in the palace of the Longteng Empire, Long Dan, who was in seclusion in a secret room, frowned slightly, slowly opened his eyes, took out a communication talisman from his storage ring, and was instantly shocked after seeing the words on it.
"It's you? You're not dead after all! What does this pervert want from me?"
There was a deep fear in Long Dan's eyes, and his emotions were extremely uneasy at this moment.
After a long pause, he finally took out a new communication talisman and wrote on the paper: Thanks to you, I was lucky enough to break the city protection barrier in that battle, so I was lucky enough to escape with my life and return to the West after escaping from many pursuits.
I will never forget your life-saving grace. If you want to see me, you can come to me anytime. Please feel free to ask for any help you need.
To be honest, I was recruited into the palace of Longteng Empire and entrusted with important tasks because I have the innate spiritual limit Gu. Currently, I am the chief genius of Longteng Empire and am about to be sent to Xuanyuan Empire to participate in a Western Region Genius League.
This Western Region Talent Competition will gather all the talents in the Western Region. Do you plan to participate? If you want to participate, I'm afraid I will have to give up the championship position to you.
In a month, I will go to participate in the Western Region Talent Competition with a group of geniuses from the Longteng Empire. You can just wait for me at the competition venue.
As soon as Long Dan put his pen down, the communication talisman written by him turned into a stream of light and flew out.
Looking at the light flying away, Long Dan stood up with a look of deep solemnity in his eyes.
So far, Long Xuan is the only genius he is afraid of, no other.
Not to mention how Long Xuan has grown over the years, if he used that forbidden technique again in a competition, he would absolutely not be able to resist it, and the championship would be his.
"Will Long Xuan participate in the Western Region Genius Competition?" Long Dan took a deep breath and felt a deep pressure.
At the same time, Long Xuan felt his storage ring move, and his brows immediately lit up with joy.
As expected, Long Dan is still alive. He is blessed with a good fortune. Since he is still alive, let’s just count him as one.
Long Xuan took out the communication talisman from his storage ring and frowned slightly when he saw so many words on it.
"He actually wrote so much, is he a chatterbox?" (End of this chapter)
