Chapter 73 The Queen Bee Becomes (with illustrations)
Lei Guang looked at Long Xuan with a resentful look, but he didn't say anything in return. He finally calmed down.
His current situation was not good. He was in a dangerous situation. He couldn't continue to fight with Long Xuan. He had to break through as quickly as possible, otherwise he might die here today.
With the fear of death, he ignored Long Xuan. The lightning flashed wildly under his feet. He ran straight in one direction regardless of the consequences.
Lei Mang Gu was good at straight-line speed. The wolves in front of him were either knocked away or bit him tightly, tearing off a large piece of meat.
This was also the disadvantage of running in a straight line. If he rushed straight, he would directly hit the attack of the wolf pack and couldn't avoid it at all, which would leave him with many fatal injuries.
But now the situation was critical, and he couldn't care so much.
He could only ignore the attack of the wolf pack and rush in one direction, trying to break out of the encirclement as quickly as possible.
However, how could Long Xuan do as he wished? Whoever releases the external Gu first will be at a disadvantage. Lei Guang released the external Gu first and suffered a loss. Now it is finally Long Xuan's turn to release the external Gu. Now is the best time for him to use this trump card.
Long Xuan dodged the attacks from all directions with ease while opening the insect breeding bag and pulling out Xiao Bai who was living in it.
When he saw Xiao Bai's appearance at this time, his face suddenly turned black.
At this time, Xiao Bai's tail was wrapped around a wine pot, and he was drinking like drinking water. It was just like drinking like a cow. A full pot of good wine was wasted by this little thing.
He showed a look of pain. This pot of wine is worth a lot of money. How could it withstand such a thing.
Doesn't this wine Gu eat anything else besides drinking?
Ordinary wine is not enough. It insists on drinking his top-grade distilled wine. If it doesn't drink, it won't grow to a certain length. What family can withstand such a disaster from it?
It is said that the cost of raising Gu is much higher than that of refining Gu. Now he really understands this.
He has a hunch that the wealth he got from selling the mine will be squandered by it sooner or later. It is just a matter of time.
Long Xuan said with a dark face: "Have you drunk enough? If you have drunk enough, hold that person back. If that person runs away, you can't drink any wine. I can't afford to support such a great god like you."
Long Xuan pointed his finger at Lei Guang who was about to break out of the siege.
Xiao Bai looked at Lei Guang, who was already full of hungry wolves, with intoxicated eyes.
He didn't see any movement. The slow field of the white light curtain suddenly started with Xiao Bai and spread to Lei Guang's feet in a long strip.
Lei Guang only felt that there was an infinite resistance in the space, as if there was an invisible big hand blocking his progress and blocking his every move. He had to use all his strength every time he moved, and every step he took took countless times more effort.
He didn't know how many times slower his speed was at this moment.
What made him even more desperate was that he was the only one affected by the slowdown, and the speed of the wolves was not affected at all.
Seeing that the scope of the field continued to spread and had already enveloped the wolves, the little white snake did not treat them as humans at all. Not only did it treat them differently, it did not slow down the wolves, but it accelerated them.
It was actually possible to play like this.
He suddenly had an urge to vomit blood and completely collapsed.
Only he slowed down, but all the wolves were accelerated, how could he fight?
Just as he was about to break out of the encirclement, the next second the speed of the wolves was unknown how many times faster, and they quickly surpassed him, so he returned to the center of the encirclement again, and his eyes showed despair.
Once the wolf pack was accelerated, the attack ability can be imagined. Many attacks that he could obviously avoid, under the influence of acceleration, he could not avoid them at all, not to mention that he was still in the process of deceleration.
Especially the wolf king, after being accelerated, he completely turned into a mad wolf, and his combat power increased dramatically.
After biting the Thunder Purple Golden Toad to death, he realized that his speed suddenly increased by many times, and he immediately showed excitement. He launched a fierce attack on the already wounded Lei Guang, as if to test how strong his combat power was after being accelerated.
With the strengthened Wolf King joining the battle, Lei Guang's pressure suddenly doubled, and he began to be in danger. From time to time, he was caught by the Wolf King, leaving a deep scar that could penetrate the bone.
Now, except for one Thunder Mang Gu, all his Gu insects died suddenly, and his speed increased and decreased. Under the attack of the Wolf King, he had no power to fight back.
Not long after, his right leg was torn off by the Wolf King. After losing his ability to move, he had no ability to resist. He was swarmed by the wolves and quickly eaten. His death was extremely miserable.
Long Xuan had no mercy. Those who kill people will be killed.
Since you like to kill people for treasures, you must be prepared to be killed in return.
You will pay for what you have done.
Long Xuan showed a cold smile, ran over, grabbed several storage bags and insect breeding bags left by Lei Guang, and began to break out.
After the wolves bit Lei Guang to death, they began to concentrate their strength to attack him.
However, since Long Xuan dared to lure them over, he was naturally not afraid of them.
Not to mention that he had a subtle body movement, even if the most critical situation occurred, the worst thing would be to release a two-hundred-year vitality bomb directly, and all the wolf kings would die. Even if the wolf pack doubled, it would not be enough for him to kill in one breath.
Of course, this was in the case of unexpected variables, such as the wolf king breaking through in the battle and suddenly becoming a second-level spirit beast.
The current situation was not worth it for him to use the vitality bomb. After all, it would cost him two hundred years of life. He was reluctant to use it unless it was absolutely necessary, and it was completely worthless to use it on this group of wolves.
Xiao Bai's domain was wide open, and within a short time, the wolves were all covered.
But this time things have changed.
The wolves were no longer accelerating, but were being decelerated.
Now Long Xuan is accelerating, and he is the only one accelerating.
How can we keep up with this speed if it is reduced and then increased? The wolves could only watch helplessly as Long Xuan easily broke through the encirclement, throwing them further and further away, unable to even get ashes from their buttocks.
At this time, the Wolf King was very depressed. He was accelerating just now, but now he was suddenly slowed down again. This up and down motion made him feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
All he could do was watch Long Xuan's back getting smaller and smaller, and reluctantly gave up the chase.
To others, the tide of beasts is nothing to talk about. Once surrounded by a herd of beasts, it is almost certain death.
But for Long Xuan, entering the herd of beasts was like visiting his own back garden. He could go in and out whenever he wanted.
Even though super geniuses as powerful as lightning were torn to pieces by the beasts, Long Xuan was able to escape unscathed among the beasts and easily escape.
After leaving the wolves for some distance, Long Xuan couldn't wait to check his trophies.
Lei Guang only had three storage bags hanging on his waist. He wouldn't believe them if they didn't have any good stuff.
When he opened it, as he expected, his eyes immediately lit up.
There are piles of various treasures inside, and two of the storage bags are completely full. This is not just fat, it is really too fat.
Long Xuan couldn't help but sigh, how many people did this sinister kid kill, and how could he have so much property? Murder is indeed the fastest way to earn money.
He checked the contents of the three storage bags and the insect breeding bag as quickly as possible, then narrowed his eyes and showed a bright smile.
Good guy, it was so fat. He actually found the materials for two Beast Kings inside, corresponding to the top-grade spiritual insects that parasitized the Beast Kings.
A Deer King and an Ox King are the necessary materials for refining dragon Gu.
The antlers are the parts of the dragon's horns, and the cow's ears are the parts of the dragon's ears. Now his dragon Gu's eyes, ears, dragon scales, dragon horns, and dragon claws are all complete.
He has collected five-ninths of all the body parts of Dragon Gu, and most of the nine parts of the beast king's materials.
And how long has it been?
He hasn't created the recipe for Dragon Gu yet? Less than 10% of the content was obscured.
At first, he was worried about not being able to find the materials and considered whether to give up his plan to study the dragon poison recipe. But now it seems that his worries were completely unnecessary.
It can only be said that this tide of beasts has come at a very good time, and it is possible to collect any kind of beast materials in the tide of beasts.
It is estimated that this Lei Guang collected the materials for two beast kings by constantly trapping and killing geniuses.
Longxuanle blossomed.
These are only the materials he needs, not to mention the materials he doesn't need. Many materials are even more precious than the Beast King materials.
In short, this Lei Guang's net worth is really too fat.
Long Xuan was very satisfied.
Just when he was happily counting the spoils, the flame clone finally arrived after being sensed. Before he could say anything, he threw a breeding bag to Long Xuan.
Long Xuan took it curiously, opened it and took a look. He narrowed his eyes and burst into laughter.
There is actually a camel corpse inside the good guy, and there is actually another beast king, and there is also a top-grade spiritual insect parasitizing the spiritual core.
The dragon's head looks like a camel's, good fellow, isn't the dragon's head even?
We have collected six-ninths of the nine parts of the beast king materials, and there are only three beast king materials missing. Double happiness comes to our door, it is really double happiness.
"Good! Good! Good! Well done!"
Long Xuan smiled from ear to ear, patted the shoulder of the flame clone, and synchronized the memory at the same time.
By checking his memories, he finally figured out where the flame clone got the body of the Camel King.
In the confrontation between the Gu cultivator alliance and the beast tide, not only the Gu cultivator alliance suffered heavy casualties, but also a large number of spiritual beasts died, including a large number of beast kings.
As a result, all the surviving Gu cultivators have basically made a fortune. Each Gu cultivator has gained a lot of money on the battlefield, enriching their pockets, and naturally they have to dispose of the unused materials.
Therefore, trade fairs of various sizes are held every day in the camp. There are countless trade fairs.
The best spiritual insects, which are rarely seen in ordinary times, appear frequently at trade fairs, and there are countless rare animal materials. Many Gu cultivators are making a lot of money.
And this entire set of Camel King beast materials was obtained by the flame clone through bidding at the trade fair with a wealthy Gu cultivator.
The price paid was not small. All the Gu cultivators in the camp had gained weight. As a result, the flame clone spent 20 million spirit stones and a bottle of spirit gathering pills to capture the entire corpse of the Camel King and the top-quality spirit insects that were bundled and sold.
Of course, this was a transaction completed under the condition of changing the appearance. Just this transaction caused the flame clone to consume all the spiritual stones.
As for the safety of the flame clone, Long Xuan had no worries after checking his memory.
Long Qilin was nostalgic for his old friendship. If he hadn't helped him in that battle, he would definitely be dead.
Therefore, in this beast wave, he took good care of the flame clones, and basically would not end up being used as cannon fodder by the rich.
In this way, Long Xuan felt more confident and bold in putting resources on the flame clone.
He rummaged through the storage bag. He only spent a fraction of the spirit stones he got from selling the fossil ore veins last time. He was still very rich, not to mention the mountains of spirit stones in the Lei Guang storage bag.
So he was not stingy, and with a wave of his hand, he gave 200 million spirit stones to the flame clone, and also distributed many pill bottles to the flame clone, including a large number of spirit gathering pills.
There were also various unused treasures, and Long Xuan also gave some of them to the flame clone.
"Change! Change it hard! Change it to death!"
It had only been two months since the flame clone had collected a set of beast king materials. If he had been given another year, how much more could he have collected.
There is a lot to be done by gathering all the nine kinds of Beast King materials that Dragon Gu needs. There is a lot to be done, so Long Xuan spent a lot of money and put a lot of resources on the flame clone, trying to get him to spend a lot of money to give him the remaining three Beast King materials. Smash it back.
…
After meeting the flame clone, Long Xuan immediately returned to his small home without stopping for a moment longer.
There has been such a big danger just after arriving here. Who knows what will happen if we stay any longer. Being the protagonist has a certain aura. There are dangers wherever you go. The only way to stay safe is at home.
As for fighting against the beast tide, leave it entirely to the Flame Clone, and collect the materials needed for the Dragon Gu at the same time.
His main body still had important things to do, and the presence of the flame clone was equivalent to Long Xuan's contribution to the beast tide.
After returning home in three days, Long Xuan ran into the small pavilion in his medicine garden again, made tea, and heated the tea eggs. The tea eggs were fragrant. After taking a sip, he sat on the stone chair. On the liver, he took a gu prescription and sipped tea from time to time. If the weather got cold, he would change the tea to warm wine and he would enjoy it very much.
He once again fell into seclusion, but his life in seclusion did not make him feel depressed.
There is a large amount of fresh and delicious beast king meat in his storage bag, and the vegetable garden is also mature. The fruits and vegetables are all high-grade, and the stir-fries are much more delicious than those in his previous life.
Apart from taking liver poison prescriptions every day, eating delicious food has become his greatest enjoyment. An otaku has fun as an otaku, and being an otaku who rarely communicates with the outside world may not necessarily mean that his happiness index is low.
Long Xuan spends his days at home either studying poison recipes or studying food and enjoying the delicious food. He only goes out every two months to join the flame clone.
While synchronizing the memories of both parties, he will also bring the materials collected by the flame clone back home. Every time he goes there, he will gain something, and the materials required for the dragon poison are also prepared little by little.
He just repeated this kind of life between two o'clock and one line, simple and unpretentious. As the number of trips back and forth increased, a year had passed before he knew it.
Within this year, Long Xuan's inspiration broke out, which greatly shortened the construction period. In just one year, he had reached 90% of the Dragon Gu recipe, and he was not far from completion.
On this day, he stopped writing, placed the pen on the stone table, and took a sip of juice squeezed from the fourth-grade spiritual fruit.
The juice squeezed from the fourth-grade spiritual fruit is more than delicious. The juice is rich in sufficient spiritual power of various attributes. One sip will make your whole body feel refreshed. It would be better if you can add a few ice cubes.
After Long Xuan let out a satisfying burp, he strolled towards the beehive hanging on the cherry blossom tree.
This was also the reason why he suddenly stood up. Through observing the progress, it was not long before the little glutton evolved into a queen bee, and it was estimated that it would only be a few days.
That's why he would get up and take a look from time to time during this period, full of expectations.
With a nervous mood, Long Xuan slowly approached the beehive on the cherry blossom tree.
As soon as he got close, Long Xuan saw a huge round hole on the hive. The round hole was far larger than the normal size of the spirit bee, as if something had suddenly squeezed out from the inside.
He was shocked and immediately looked inside the hive along the big hole. Sure enough, a huge spiritual bee was hiding inside, happily enjoying the honey.
There is no doubt that the big hole must have been squeezed out by this guy. There is no one else except it.
It suddenly grew in size, and the small bee hole could no longer accommodate it in and out, so it could only squeeze out with brute force.
However, it was so crowded that it suffered for the other bees. Its neighbors had their homes demolished, and a large group of bees lost their homes overnight and became homeless.
Each spirit bee of this bee species has a secret chamber of its own, which is considered its own home and private territory, but all spirit bees share a maze-like hive.
Each spirit bee eats the honey it makes by itself, hides the honey with different flavors in its own secret room, and enjoys it slowly in the dead of night.
Some spirit bees have even developed a collecting habit. They collect honey of all flavors, filling their little homes with honey.
The rare fourth-grade honey is hidden the most tightly, guarding against similar people passing by the door like a thief, for fear that his fourth-grade honey will be stolen by similar people.
Therefore, every secret room in the hive is very important to the smart bees who live here. It stores the good honey that they have collected for many years. Now that it is destroyed, why don’t the honey-hungry bees fight it?
This big guy might have been beaten to death if he had already offended the public! Long Xuan thought worriedly.
But when he looked carefully into the cave, he found that this was not the case at all.
The big guy seemed to be distributing demolition money. All the bees whose homes had been destroyed became demolished households and left with satisfaction. They were expanding the hive, preparing to expand around the edge of the hive and build new houses.
As for the demolition model, it was an icy blue thing. The other spirit bees looked at this icy blue thing with very longing eyes.
Many spiritual bees even took out fourth-grade honey from home that they were reluctant to eat and wanted to exchange it with it.
The big guy kept shaking his head and didn't even change it.
What on earth is this? It was more valuable than fourth-grade honey, and Long Xuan was shocked.
But what is certain is that this kind of thing must be of great benefit to the spiritual bees and has a fatal temptation for them. Otherwise, they would not be willing to exchange even the fourth-grade honey.
"It's royal jelly!"
Long Xuan's expression suddenly changed and he exhaled loudly.
There is only one explanation at this time.
Only if the blue thing is royal jelly will its value be higher than that of fourth-grade honey.
But don’t equate the royal jelly from the previous life with the royal jelly in this world. The royal jelly in this world has too many magical effects. The royal jelly made by the worker bees does not count. The royal jelly made by the queen bee is enough to allow ordinary spiritual bees to evolve and even transform. All spirit bees have a fatal attraction.
Long Xuan's breathing was rapid. In fact, he didn't need to look at the progress. He only needed to look at the huge size. He already knew that the little glutton must evolve into a queen bee.
The journey of raising queen bees was finally successful.
God knows how long he has been waiting for this day, how long he has been greedy for honey, and now the queen bee is finally born, but it makes him wait for a while.
Long Xuan was ecstatic, now he finally had countless spiritual honey to eat.
He couldn't wait to put his hand into the big hole, pulled out the enlarged glutton, then bit his finger and blood-deeded it as quickly as possible.
The little glutton only knew how to eat and showed no resistance at all. In its daze, it had already established a blood contract with someone.
Through the blood contract connection, Long Xuan also quickly understood its abilities.
There is no doubt that the little glutton accidentally evolved into a new bee species after eating the honey made from the nectar of the thousand-year-old iceberg snow lotus, a brand new bee species that appeared in this world for the first time.
Long Xuan still hasn't figured out what species it was before, so he has always referred to this group of spirit bees as the collective name spirit bees.
But now it doesn't matter what kind of bee they were before, and Long Xuan didn't bother to check.
Because the little glutton has evolved into a new bee species, those ordinary spiritual bees will also increase in strength and evolve into this bee species after eating its royal jelly.
And Long Xuan quickly gave this bee species a brand new name, called Ice Bee, and this little glutton was named Bingbing.
He already had a rough idea of the Ice Bee's abilities through the blood contract.
Whether it is the bee in the previous life or the bee in this life, there is a fatal weakness, which makes all Gu cultivators intolerable.
Bee stings have barbs, and once the barbs pierce the enemy's body, they cannot be pulled out.
Therefore, after each bee stings a person, its sting will remain on the enemy's body. At the same time, the intestines connected to the sting will be left behind, causing the bee to die soon after injuring the person.
The final result is that the enemy is not even slightly injured, but kills himself first. It is simply a meaningless suicide attack.
But the Ice Bee he inadvertently created evolved perfectly, without such fatal flaws at all.
The Ice Bee's stingers are made of ice. Not only do they have no barbs, but they are smooth and can easily penetrate into the enemy's body.
Moreover, the ice needle is a consumable product that can be produced infinitely, can be shot in the air, and can be used for long-range attacks. After the ice needle flies out, the Ice Bee's tail will quickly grow another ice needle, which can be regenerated repeatedly. The disadvantage of other bees is that if the sting is lost, they will die.
Moreover, ice needles contain highly toxic substances. Once the ice needles are pierced into the human body, they will melt instantly and turn into liquid, which is quickly absorbed by the human body.
Long Xuan didn't know how terrifying the Ice Bee's Ice Bee poison was, but it was certain that it was a poison that had no cure for the time being in this world.
A poison that no one in the world has ever seen. Of course, no one knows the antidote. In a sense, it can be said that there is no cure.
Long Xuan was very satisfied with the Ice Bee's combat capabilities, although its individual combat capabilities were certainly incomparable to those of top-quality Gu insects.
However, Ice Bees are social spiritual insects and cannot sustain large numbers.
Under the leadership of the queen bee, tens of thousands of ice bees can create a heavy rain of needles, causing a dense rain of needles to fall from the sky, covering the earth indiscriminately.
Just imagine who doesn’t have a headache when encountering this kind of attack?
You must know that every ice needle is highly poisonous, and it will be uncomfortable for anyone who gets one.
However, there is only one Ice Bee now, which is still far from the scale of hundreds of thousands. He does not know how long it will take to cultivate such a large number of Ice Bees, and he also needs to continue to expand the scale of planting flower elixirs.
Long Xuan would no longer be able to see the terrifying sight of needle rain falling from the sky in a short time, and the Ice Bees could not even hope to form combat effectiveness in a short time.
He could only keep the Ice Bees in the medicine garden for a long time, and then make arrangements after they reached a certain scale.
