The Path of Immortality: Starts With Creating Water Bear Gu

It was also a coincidence that the Feng family Gu cultivator fighting Long Xuan just now did not believe he would lose in a head-on clash with a lower stage rogue cultivator. Unwilling to accept defeat, he charged at Long Xuan again with a fierce expression.

However, Long Xuan had no intention of continuing the fistfight. Seeing the Feng family cultivator rushing straight at him, he greeted him with a vast sea of flames, turning him into a living target.

Since this was Long Xuan's first time using the Blazing flame Palm in actual combat, he couldn't control the power well, resulting in a wide attack range. The sea of fire not only engulfed his opponent but also affected his teammates.

The fire not only injured Li Laodao but also surrounded Little Medicine Boy and his opponent.

Thus, the earlier scene unfolded, coincidentally saving Li Laodao's life.

Feng Wu's eyes almost popped out, and he was about to spit blood.

Those were the black beetles he painstakingly cultivated, consuming countless resources.

To raise these 100,000 black beetles, he spent resources worth far more than a peak-grade Gu insect. Most of his fortune was invested in them, hoping to be invincible among his peers with this insect sea. He never expected that in the first battle, they would be burned to ashes by a single fire, bringing him back to square one. The significant investment of resources was entirely wasted.

His vision went dark, and he nearly fainted.

He was utterly enraged, losing all rationality, and with a murderous look in his eyes, he rushed at Long Xuan like a madman, no longer caring about his opponent, Li Laodao.

Meanwhile, on the other battlefield, Long Qilin was holding his ground in a two-on-one fight. Each of his punches was extremely heavy, causing his two opponents to avoid direct confrontation, choosing to fight strategically.

"Hehe! Long Qilin, your spiritual power is almost depleted! Let's see how long you can hold on!" Feng Si said while moving behind Long Qilin, occasionally launching sneak attacks.

Long Qilin had Feng San in front of him, which was troublesome.

Long Qilin's expression was grim. He knew his situation well and understood that if the fight continued, he would lose. He had to use his trump card.

With a roar, his aura began to surge, quickly breaking through to the mid-Marrow cleansing stage, instantly turning him into a mid stage marrow cleansing Gu cultivator.

With his level suddenly increased, his combat power multiplied, quickly changing the battlefield's dynamics. Using his higher level, he started to overpower his two opponents.

"It's actually the top-grade Gu insect Ascending Dragon Gu! Hahaha!" Feng San laughed and said to Feng Si, "See, my preparations were right!"

He then turned to Long Qilin and laughed, "I suspected you had more than one peak-grade Gu insect, so I made thorough preparations!"

"Look at the nice surprise I brought you! It's something that perfectly counters your Ascending Dragon Gu!"

With a laugh, Feng San took out a black Gu insect and placed it in his palm.

Seeing this Gu insect, Long Qilin's pupils contracted, and his expression changed drastically.

As a mortal enemy of the Feng family, he knew their exclusive Gu insects very well.

This was one of the Feng family's strongest exclusive Gu insects, the Weakening Gu. The Weakening Gu created a weak field, causing anyone within it to be automatically downgraded by one level, regardless of any logic.

So, the power Long Qilin borrowed from the Shenglong Gu to temporarily increase his level was immediately reduced back to the initial Marrow cleansing stage with the appearance of the Weakening Gu.

Feeling his strength weaken again, Long Qilin felt a deep sense of helplessness. His biggest trump card was easily neutralized.

His opponent was indeed highly prepared. Even though he had narrowly avoided the first two traps, they still had more tricks up their sleeves. It seemed like today was his destined end.

At the same time, Long Xuan, fighting like a mad dog, suddenly felt the battlefield enveloped in a vast dark curtain. His level began to plummet.

The Weakening Field reduced everyone's level by one in the same stage, and it nullified the effect if someone was a major stage higher. However, being a major stage lower resulted in a double reduction in level.

Long Xuan was one major stage lower than the Weakening Gu's user, so his level dropped two stages from the late Spirit Gathering stage to the early Spirit Gathering stage.

Long Xuan was stunned. Wasn't this his level when he first arrived in this world? How did he return to it? What was going on?

Now, his opponent was a peak Spirit Gathering stage Gu cultivator, three stages higher than his current early Spirit Gathering stage. How could he fight?

Even the mighty Ten Absolute Body couldn't cross three levels to fight.

Long Xuan's expression darkened. He realized that if he didn't find a way to break the situation, he would be doomed. He steeled his heart and prepared to use that move.

The Weakening Gu's ability only reduced levels but didn't affect lifespan. This ability wouldn't decrease a person's lifespan.

At this moment, Long Xuan decided to use the forbidden technique from the Eternal Life Sutra— the Spirit Bomb.

The Spirit Bomb was a suicide technique that exchanged lifespan for power, capable of threatening those at higher stages.

Only this move could break the situation now. With Long Qilin still holding on, he had to use the Spirit Bomb to quickly create an escape route.

Otherwise, once the two Marrow cleansing stage Gu cultivators defeated Long Qilin and came for him, he would surely die.

Long Xuan gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

So far, his clone had cultivated the Eternal Life Sutra to the 17 level, giving him an additional seven hundred years of lifespan, not including the first ten levels.

With such a large reserve of lifespan, he could afford to use it once.

Long Xuan didn't hesitate. Dodging Feng Wu's attack, he condensed a white ball of energy in his right hand, which rotated rapidly, compressed continuously, and emitted a faint white light with a terrifying power.

The white ball of energy instantly drained one hundred years of Long Xuan's lifespan, causing slight discomfort in his body.
