Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 47: Traveling Thousands of Miles, Observing the Myriad Creatures of Life

```

Due to the sheer number of Light Gu, Murong Lang made more than ten trips back and forth.

In front of Chen Qing, there were more than ten Light Gu on the long table awaiting selection; these were the ones he personally felt had the highest growth potential.

The vanished Murong Lang appeared again at his seat, presenting a gigantic jade jar filled with nearly a hundred sleeping Light Gu.

"This is the last batch."

"These are all the Light Gu accumulated over thousands of years by the Thunder Pure Land."

Chen Qing observed closely and found a peculiar little one among them.

[Mortal Light Gu]

Grade: Ninth Transformation

Life Span: 99/100

Effect: Emits light

[Trait]

[Light Dust]: After evolving to a Light Butterfly, it can further advance to enhance grade and open the third form of Harmonization.

Growth Requirements: None

Growth Progress: 100/100

Promotion Requirements: Spring breeze, summer rain, autumn fruit, winter snow

Further Promotion Requirements: Walk ten thousand miles, observe all living things.

The requirement for the Light Butterfly’s promotion was to imbibe the scenery of the four seasons, while the requirement to promote to a spiritual item was to walk ten thousand miles and observe all living things.

Chen Qing thought of many ascetics, weren’t they precisely walking ten thousand miles?

And this Light Gu’s promotion requirement was surprisingly to walk ten thousand miles!

Could there be some coincidence?

Actually, Chen Qing quite liked this Light Gu.

The one year of remaining lifespan wasn’t very critical; after promoting to a spiritual item, there would be a substantial increase in lifespan.

He had seen many Ninth-Transformation Mortal Gu, none had a lifespan exceeding 90, even the Fog Gu only had 89 at the Ninth Transformation.

Yet, this Light Gu already had a lifespan of 100 at the Ninth Transformation, which astonished him greatly.

Coupled with the promotion requirements filled with Daoist charm, it made him feel this Light Gu was highly extraordinary.

These promotion requirements didn’t quite seem like growth, rather more akin to proving one’s path!

He reached out and took this Light Gu from the jade jar, placed it in front of himself, "What an interesting little fellow, it’s just that I have a follower quite suitable for this Light Gu, so I’ll give it to him."

How could the mighty Taichu need such a small thing?

Murong Lang did not show any dissatisfaction but instead, looked pleased, "It’s fine as long as the senior likes it."

Chen Qing reached out and picked up a Light Gu, placed it in front of the scholar; the Light Gu for advancement required all Thunder spiritual objects, which was quite suitable for the scholar.

Among similar Gu, those of higher grade greatly suppressed those of lower grade!

Just like Chen Qing slaying the female Evil Cultivator, relying on a Fifth-Transformation Sword Butterfly to face her sword Gu, it was a complete crush.

If the scholar had a Thunder Light Butterfly, it would greatly aid his situation.

"This one suits you well."

Chen Qing turned to Hu Yao, asked, "Do you have a way to acquire dragon bones?"

Hu Yao nodded.

Chen Qing was also surprised, this girl could actually get dragon bones?

It was a casual inquiry; if she couldn’t, he’d ask someone else.

But this girl really found a way!

He picked up a Light Gu and placed it in front of Hu Yao, "If you can acquire dragon bones, this Light Gu will suit you well."

Chen Qing did not mind disclosing part of the formula to Hu Yao; after all, it wasn’t complete and had little significance.

Hu Yao did not seek Chen Qing’s guidance, Chen Qing guessed this girl was truly out of money.

Murong Lang also did not seek Chen Qing’s advice.

Chen Qing speculated that the scholar most likely spent a fortune mobilizing the Light Gu.

Seeing everyone no longer continued chatting, Chen Qing leaned back, "Then, today’s gathering is over."

When Chen Qing removed his mask and returned to his kitchen’s basement, he breathed a sigh of relief, opened the pouch Yao Feng had given him—it was filled with glittering mid-grade Spirit Stones!

He placed the Light Gu aside, carefully counted them.

"There are actually two hundred and fifty!"

Spiritual item Gu were indeed not something ordinary people could play with; just advancing from First to Second Transformation required nearly two hundred fifty thousand low-grade Spirit Stones!

No, Light Gu must be more special in some way, which is why it required so many; spiritual item Gu’s advancement likely required around two hundred thousand low-grade Spirit Stones.

Chen Qing had heard some rumors about spiritual item Gu, though he’d never seen anyone selling them. Those legendary prices all started at a million Spirit Stones.

This was merely a starting price.

With the Spirit Stones he had now, it was enough to buy a Power Gu, Iron Skin Gu, and Wind Gu.

Those five snatched Gu also needed to be disposed of quickly.

Of course, it wasn’t possible for Chen Qing to directly purchase three Gu; this would completely drain all his Spirit Stones.

The three fellows at the gathering had pretty much been squeezed dry by him already.

The most prosperous Yao Feng also put in a lot of effort this time, likely wouldn’t seek his advice in the short term.

Better to buy a Wind Gu first and enhance his speed.

Contracting the Light Gu, Chen Qing slept soundly.

The blockade order at Wuyou Mountain lasted more than half a month.

After the disciples were allowed to go down the mountain, the first thing Chen Qing did was to take those five captured Gu and disguised himself to go to Wanbao Pavilion.

When he initially bought a sword Gu to contract, it cost two thousand five hundred low-grade Spirit Stones.

But that swindler, when buying his Gu, would only offer two thousand low-grade Spirit Stones each.

If it weren’t inconvenient for him to make a move, he definitely wouldn’t let that Wanbao Pavilion swindler have them so cheaply.

Adding six hundred Spirit Stones, Chen Qing carefully selected a Sixth-Transformation Wind Gu and returned.

The last summer rain finally came; he sat on the platform in front of his cave, feeling the faint tremor transmitted by the Light Gu in his body as it got soaked.

It was a very magical feeling, hard to describe any insights, just a sense of comfort.

Autumn seemed to want to paint everything yellow; leaves turned yellow, grain ripened to gold, and the sunlight was always warm.

Chen Qing wandered the woods near the Spiritual Field, reaching up to pluck a grape from the vine.

Feeding it to the Light Gu, he found that the words "Autumn Fruit" finally disappeared.

Thirty-three types of autumn fruits?

At this moment, he suddenly sensed his Sword Butterfly in his body had transformed again to the Ninth Transformation; he stood alone in the dense forest, looking at his Sword Butterfly.

There wasn’t much change; it just required less Spiritual Energy.

From First to Eighth Transformation, the Sword Butterfly’s need for Spiritual Energy kept increasing, only at the Ninth Transformation did it decrease somewhat.

He formed a small sword in his hand and was surprised to find, unlike before when it needed constant infusement of Spiritual Energy to sustain, now it only required forming and wouldn’t dissipate unless scattered.

Was this the additional change of the Ninth Transformation?

No wonder they said the Ninth Transformation brought significant changes!

With this ability, his strength would increase considerably.

On the way back, he saw many Wuyou Mountain disciples practicing swordplay in preparation for the winter hunt.

During winter, the Sword Abyss would see a large number of Sword Gu appear.

These Sword Gu were the focal point of Wuyou Mountain disciples’ competition.

Chen Qing found a bluestone beside him, sat down, took out his wine gourd for a sip, while cultivating and pondering.

This winter hunt, perhaps he could also get involved.
