Longevity Gu Dao: Start From Refining Infatuation Gu

Chapter 217: Condensing Dragon Bones, Second Evolution of Dragon Elephant Gu

"Cough cough, alright, enough praise already."

"If you keep praising me, I might just float away."

"By the way, Yuxi, how is the investigation of the surrounding islands going?"

Zhou Sui quickly changed the topic.

He couldn't handle being praised by his wives and concubines. If they continued to praise him like this, he might really not be able to handle it.

After all, he knew his own aptitude, he was just an average person. If it weren't for the help of the Divine Gu Bowl, he wouldn't have reached his current level.

In his previous life as a homebody, he was not good at fighting at all.

So he had always been cautious, careful, and afraid of making a small mistake that would ruin everything.

"For this month, disciples from the three major sects have been sent to gather information."

"We have indeed obtained a lot of useful intelligence."

"The three-star island group we are in is actually located in a relatively remote area of the Infinite Unity Alliance."

"Far away from the main islands of the Infinite Unity Alliance."

"So this sea area is not very safe, it can be said to be chaotic and full of mixed fish and dragons."

Leng Yuxi said in a deep voice, revealing the information she had gathered in the past few days.

"Oh, what's going on?"

"Isn't this the sea area ruled by the Infinite Unity Alliance? How can it be unsafe?"

Zhou Sui frowned.

This was related to his life and death. If it was really unsafe, he would pack up and leave.

After all, running away was not something new to him.

Even if there were Rank Four spiritual veins here, it was not worth his safety.

"Although this is indeed the sea area ruled by the Infinite Unity Alliance."

"But the sea area ruled by the Infinite Unity Alliance is really too big, spanning over billions of kilometers."

"For such a vast sea area, it's already good enough for them to manage the core sea areas."

"As for the peripheral sea areas, they have the intention but not the ability."

"We, the peripheral members who joined the Infinite Unity Alliance, basically stay in the peripheral sea areas."

"These sea areas are inhabited by a large number of independent cultivators, rogue cultivators, clan cultivators, and small sect cultivators, etc."

"Because there is no absolute ruling power, no one recognizes anyone."

"Even if there are incidents of robbery and murder that reach the Infinite Unity Alliance, they can't do anything about it."

"Unless there are really too many cultivators killed, causing public outrage, then the Infinite Unity Alliance will issue a wanted list."

"Of course, the Infinite Unity Alliance's control over us peripheral members is also very relaxed."

"As long as we pay enough management fees every year, they won't bother with us."

Leng Yuxi said in a deep voice.

She knew that in a place like this, they could only rely on their own strength.

Fortunately, they had three Gold Core cultivators, so they were not afraid of these threats.

"I see."

Zhou Sui nodded, now he understood the situation of the three-star island group.

It was actually similar to when he lived in Misty Cloud City.

The inner city was naturally very safe, that was where the clan cultivators were.

The outer city had worse public security, with independent cultivators running rampant.

Not to mention the markets outside the city, it was lawless.

If one wasn't strong enough, they wouldn't be able to survive.

The place they were living in now was somewhat similar to the markets outside the city, located in a lawless area.

If they wanted to protect themselves, they could only rely on their own strength.

Fortunately, he is not the same as before.

He has long been a cultivator at the Foundation Building Late Stage.

Coupled with three Dao companions at the Gold Core realm, they can survive even in the chaotic sea.

They are not afraid of being attacked by other enemies.

"The rulers of this sea area are mainly some Gold Core families."

"For example, the Yu family has a total of five Gold Core Perfected Beings, and they are one of the rulers of this sea area."

"The Yu family island is also famous, and the city built on it has attracted a large number of cultivators for trading."

"It can be considered as a well-known trading city in this sea area."

"In addition to the Yu family, there are also the Dai family and the Song family, etc., and their families also have three Gold Core Perfected Beings."

Leng Yuxi continued to share the information she knew.

"It's really exaggerated for a family to have five Gold Cores."

Mu Ziyan was very surprised.

After all, according to the situation on Xianxia Island, a Gold Core family only has one Gold Core Perfected Being. Having two is already invincible, let alone three. It's unimaginable.

She never expected that the so-called Yu family actually had five Gold Core Perfected Beings. It was really unbelievable.

"It is indeed very exaggerated."

"But it is quite normal in this sea area."

"Because the resources here are extremely abundant, much more than our Xianxia Island."

"Although the number of Gold Core Perfected Beings in this sea area is relatively rare, it is not considered rare."

"The probability of achieving Gold Core is much higher than staying on Xianxia Island."

"Compared to that, our Xianxia Island is indeed a remote and impoverished place."

Leng Yuxi sighed.

She also understood why the Gold Core Perfected Beings on Xianxia Island all wanted to leave and go to the deep sea to seek opportunities.

Because the resources on Xianxia Island are indeed relatively poor.

It simply cannot compare to the prosperous islands in the Canglan Sea Region.

In this sea area, there are cultivators at the Foundation Building stage everywhere.

Gold Core Perfected Beings are not considered rare.

Only Nascent Soul Ancestors can become rulers of a region.

"Why are they all Gold Core families? Are there no Gold Core sects?"

"Could it be that the sects in this sea area are weaker?"

Ji Bingyu noticed this.

After all, in Xianxia Island, the power of sects is stronger than that of families. Families are simply no match for sects.

But in this sea area, the power of families is stronger, and the power of sects has weakened.

"Of course not, the power of sects is still strong."

"It's just that they are not Gold Core sects, but Nascent Soul sects."

"The power of Nascent Soul sects is high and mighty, ruling endless sea areas and numerous islands."

This has squeezed the living space of Gold Core sects to almost nothing.

"Any cultivator with a bit of talent would choose to join a Nascent Soul sect rather than a Gold Core sect."

"That's why Gold Core families are so prevalent."

"After all, the family model maintained by bloodline is extremely united. Even in the face of danger, they are more united than sect cultivators, making their combat power very strong."

"If some geniuses are born in the family, they can also be sent to the Nascent Soul sect."

Zhou Sui said in a deep voice.

This is also some information he obtained from the memories of the Wu family's three villains.

Compared to Xianxia Island, the number and scale of Gold Core families in this sea area are larger.

Basically, it is a struggle between families.

Gold Core sects rarely appear.

"Understood."

"In this sea area, Gold Core Perfected Beings cannot establish their own sects."

"Only Nascent Soul Ancestors have the qualifications to establish sects."

Mu Ziyan nodded and expressed her understanding.

"This!"

Hearing this, Leng Yuxi was speechless, but she had to admit that it was indeed the case.

If they were on Xianxia Island, Gold Core Perfected Beings would be invincible and naturally able to establish sects, overwhelming all cultivators.

Gold Core Perfected Beings can establish sects for five hundred years, exerting pressure for thousands of miles.

I have never seen a Foundation Building cultivator able to establish a sect.

Of course, in some weaker places, such as the mortal world, Foundation Building cultivators might be able to establish sects.

In general, Gold Core Perfected Beings lack the strength in this sea area to establish sects.

"Of course, besides these threats."

"The biggest threat in this sea area comes from the deep-sea monsters."

"The number of these monsters is countless times more than the monsters in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range."

"Once a beast tide forms, it will cause losses to the major islands, resulting in countless deaths and injuries."

"But a beast tide only occurs once every several decades, so we don't need to worry about it for now."

Leng Yuxi continued.

She briefly mentioned the threats that Immortal Mist Sect might encounter in the future.

"In that case, that's good."

"They are just Gold Core Perfected Beings."

"Even if the Yu Family attacks with all their forces, we can still easily resist with our Immortal Mist Sect's Rank Three High Grade formation."

"Even if there are attacks from Rogue Cultivators or beast tides, we can still remain unharmed."

Zhou Sui felt relieved.

He had great confidence in the Rank Three High Grade formation he set up, especially with the support of the Formation Heart Gu, which could perfectly unleash the power of the Rank Three formation.

Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage attacked, they could withstand it.

Not to mention Gold Core cultivators.

It can be said that no Gold Core Perfected Being dares to contend with a Rank Three formation within it, against a Rank Three formation master.

This is undoubtedly seeking death.

"Husband, I want to join forces with Azure Wood Sect and Alchemy Cauldron Sect to hold a market in the city."

"Let's name it Xianxia City and place it on our Water Star Island."

"Attract Independent Cultivators from this sea area to come and trade."

"After all, the resources on the Three Star Island Group are scarce, with not many mineral veins."

"Even if we bring a large amount of resources from Xianxia Island, we can't just rely on them."

"We still need to establish a market and earn a large number of spirit stones."

Leng Yuxi expressed her suggestion.

"No problem, I'll leave this matter to you."

Zhou Sui nodded.

He naturally had no objections to such matters. After all, he didn't have much talent for business. It was better to leave it to professionals. His main task was cultivation.

It would be best to become a Gold Core Perfected Being as soon as possible. Only then would the three major sects be safer.

...

Several days later.

Things in Immortal Mist Sect also entered a regular state. Various matters were being taken care of, and Zhou Sui didn't need to handle them himself.

In a quiet room.

Zhou Sui sat cross-legged on the ground, operating the Divine Gu Sutra. The vast spiritual energy surged around him, entering his body and transforming into drops of mana.

The mana liquid in his dantian was also slowly increasing.

"Phew!"

At this moment, Zhou Sui opened his eyes and, after circulating for 108 cycles, finally finished this cultivation session.

It must be said that practicing in the Rank Three High Grade spiritual vein was indeed quite enjoyable.

For the past five years, he had been on the flying boat, only able to cultivate using spiritual stones.

This also led to a rapid depletion of his spiritual stones.

At the same time, he dared not fully indulge in devouring and absorbing them.

Now that he had arrived at the Rank Three spiritual vein, he could naturally let loose and absorb them.

The mana in his body also increased rapidly.

"To successfully achieve Core Formation, one must also pass three tests."

"The test of divine sense is definitely not a problem for me. My divine sense is comparable to that of a Gold Core Late Stage cultivator."

"If even my divine sense cannot pass the test, then no one can."

"As for the test of mana, that is even less of a problem. As long as my mana is complete, naturally I can reach the level of Core Formation without any worries."

"Now the most important thing is the test of physique."

"Although my body is extremely strong, my mana may not be equally strong."

"If I don't have a physique equivalent to a Gold Core level, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand the pressure during the breakthrough."

"In other words, I still need to focus on cultivating my physique."

"But that's okay. Since the Dragon Elephant Gu has advanced to Rank Two High Grade, the tempering effect is even more astonishing."

"If I continue to temper myself, it will be a qualitative change from a quantitative one."

Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

In fact, he sensed that with the monthly tempering of the Dragon Elephant Gu, his physique was gradually becoming stronger, as if he had reached a certain realm.

After a period of further tempering, he would definitely reach a completely new realm.

Of course, this period of time would certainly be a bit long.

But even so, it was worth the wait.

................

Five years later.

Since Zhou Sui arrived at the Three Star Island, five years had passed.

During this time, he naturally focused on cultivating and paid little attention to the outside world.

Boom!

At this moment, Zhou Sui once again welcomed the monthly tempering of the Dragon Elephant Gu. A mysterious blood energy spread throughout his body, entering every part of his body.

After years of tempering, it seemed that he had finally reached a certain limit.

Thud!

This strand of mysterious blood energy, as if breaking through a bottleneck, easily caused a tremendous change in Zhou Sui's body.

And this time, the massive blood energy penetrated into his bones.

Every one of the 206 bones in his body underwent the tempering of the mysterious blood energy.

This caused every bone in his body to be eroded by a dark golden power, gradually turning into dark golden bones, emitting an aura of nobility, unfathomability, strength, antiquity, and more.

Countless mysterious runes appeared on each bone, seemingly containing an immortal aura.

There was no doubt that his bones had been tempered to an incredibly strong level, shining like Law Treasure materials.

"Dragon bones!"

In an instant, Zhou Sui's sea of consciousness immediately received a message from the Dragon Elephant Gu.

Obviously, his body had undergone a second evolution and obtained dragon bones.

Now, every bone in his body was being tempered into dragon bones.

This also caused a bizarre transformation in his body.

A terrifying dragon might emanated from him, almost solidifying.

With a crack, the ground in the quiet room couldn't withstand this pressure and instantly cracked, spreading like a spiderweb throughout the entire room.
