Long Xuan's imagination continued to expand...

Soon he looked out the window again, zooming in on the distant scenery. With the zood-in landscape, he essentially possessed a clairvoyant vision.

In fact, his Gu collection included a large number of eagle eyes, so even without using this ability, his normal vision was already exceptionally far-reaching, almost like a small-scale clairvoyance.

Once clairvoyance is combined with magnifying vision, the terrifying effect of seeing for ten thousand miles is not surprising. However, to see such a distance might still require further enhancent or a tamorphosis of the eye Gu.

The so-called tamorphosis is equivalent to an advancent in Gu cultivation.

As Gu cultivators continuously advance, the Gu insects must also keep up with the cultivator's pace to avoid being left behind, naturally requiring constant advancent.

However, the advancent of Gu insects and the advancent of Gu cultivators are entirely different systems, hence it is called tamorphosis rather than advancent.

The tamorphosis of Gu insects relies entirely on consumption. Each Gu insect has different conditions for tamorphosis, and Gu insects do not know what to consu for tamorphosis, requiring the Gu cultivator to research and explore for them.

Moreover, there are nurous items that can satisfy the tamorphosis conditions of Gu insects. Each Gu insect has countless tamorphosis routes, with so being strong and others weak. Choosing which route requires careful consideration by the Gu cultivator.

In summary, the tamorphosis of Gu insects relies on consumption, which could be other Gu insects, solid materials, or even man-made items like elixirs.

If they consu the wrong thing, Gu insects will not achieve tamorphosis even after ten thousand years. But if they consu the right thing, they can quickly complete tamorphosis, possibly even multiple tis in a short period, advancing much faster than Gu cultivators.

Because of this characteristic, even high-level Gu cultivators can quickly cultivate Gu insects that match their level.

If the Gu cultivator’s stages are Spirit Gathering, Marrow cleansing, Spiritual Sea, and Soul projection...

Then the Gu insect’s tamorphosis stages are Mortal Gu, Spirit Gu, Rare Gu, and Exotic Gu...

Corresponding to the Gu cultivator's stages one by one.

Currently, Long Xuan has not found a way for the Eye of Heavenly Secrets to tamorphose, but he is still far from the Marrow cleansing stage, so there is no rush.

One should not try to cultivate an Exotic Gu directly at the Spirit Gathering stage. While it is possible, if there is a huge disparity in strength between the master and the Gu, the consequences are obvious—either the servant becos the master, or the Gu backlashes against the cultivator.

Therefore, Long Xuan has not yet started researching the tamorphosis route for the Eye of Heavenly Secrets. His primary task now is to continue developing the abilities of the Eye of Heavenly Secrets.

At first, Long Xuan did not pay much attention to the far-sight ability. What is the use of seeing far if it cannot harm the enemy? But when he looked at the ground, he could not stay calm.

Although he has not yet gained true X-ray vision, he suddenly discovered that clairvoyance can be combined with his golden finger ability.

His golden finger can ignore obstacles, such as spirit insects encased in fossils.

Although his eyes cannot see the spirit insects, completely blocked by the thick stone layer, he can see the progress deep within the fossil.

Due to this characteristic of his golden finger, under the enhancent of clairvoyance, he can see the progress deep underground.

He doesn't know what exactly this progress indicates, but this discovery made his breath quicken, and he could no longer sit still.

What does this ability an?

It ans he can find underground spirit stone veins, tal veins, fossil veins...and even ancient tombs.

This is simply an imasurable fortune, an endless opportunity.

"I'm rich! Truly rich!"

Long Xuan excitedly paced back and forth in the room, unable to resist laughing out loud.

"Calm down, calm down, avoid extre joy and sorrow."

Long Xuan slowly cald his excited heart and continued to develop the abilities of the eye Gu.

Currently, all the abilities he has thought of are more of auxiliary nature. He desires offensive capabilities, preferably so forbidden techniques.

Long Xuan's mind worked for a mont, and he quickly thought that since the ability of the eye Gu can see the microscopic world, even molecules and atoms.

Can soul power be used to change the arrangent of atoms and molecules to create objects?

Can soul power be used to remove or add outer electrons to atoms, or change the number of protons in the nucleus, to transform one material into another?

Long Xuan gasped, utterly shocked by his bold idea.

If his soul power is strong enough to manipulate the microscopic world, could he beco a creator? His imagination was exploding.

He didn't know if this idea was feasible.

He only felt that the idea was terrifyingly bold, enough to send chills down his spine.

This is not just about the power to create everything. If this power is used on enemies, directly destroying their DNA, or turning them into sothing else entirely, the thought alone made Long Xuan's hair stand on end.

Unfortunately, his soul power is insufficient to conduct experints on manipulating the microscopic world.

Even if this idea is feasible, he cannot achieve it in the short term.

To develop such power, his soul power would have to be imnsely terrifying. As far as he knows, even becoming a Gu King might not grant such powerful soul power.

Additionally, even if this idea is realized, it could probably only create ordinary things.

Spirit dicines, spirit elixirs, spirit stones... Most treasures contain more than just spiritual power. The non-material essence in this world's natural treasures far exceeds just spiritual power, and cannot be created simply by manipulating the microscopic world.

So, even if he develops this ability, most cultivation resources would still need to be personally obtained, not created by manipulating the microscopic world.

Living things are even more impossible, as spirit insects, Gu insects, and spirit beasts cannot be created. Which aspect of soul, spirit, or lifespan can be transford by manipulating atoms?

Thinking of so many limitations, he gradually cald down. This ability might allow him to turn stone into gold, but becoming a creator is out of the question.

Since he cannot research this ability in the short term, Long Xuan stopped thinking about it.

As a new type of Gu in this world, the inventor has the right to na it.

Long Xuan thought for a mont and nad it the Eye of Heavenly Secrets, considering the na quite good.

After naming the eye Gu, he turned his Eye of Heavenly Secrets and used the ability to see a thousand miles, looking towards Elder Long's residence...

In a simple straw hut, a burly old man was sitting cross-legged on a grass mat, with an alchemy cauldron floating in mid-air controlled by his soul power in front of him.

Under the alchemy cauldron was a purple fla emitting intense heat.

He controlled the purple fla under the alchemy cauldron, sotis large, sotis small. In a short ti, all the materials in the alchemy furnace were burnt to ashes.

"Damn it! Failed again!"

"Just three ingredients short! Just three ingredients! Just one final step, why can't I get past it?"

"It's been ten years! These three ingredients have troubled for ten years, damn it!"

"The Hundred Flowers Elixir is the most potent spirit elixir for enhancing Spirit Gathering stage cultivation, with no exceptions. If I can complete the recipe, the Long family's power will reach a new level, but why can't I get past this step!"

"Is the failure due to the wrong ingredients, or is it a matter of success rate?" The old man roared furiously, extrely agitated.

On the table not far from him lay an ancient alchemical recipe, exuding an ancient aura, clearly aged.

But this ancient recipe was incomplete, missing a corner. Coincidentally, the missing part contained three crucial ingredients, the most valuable primary ingredients, indispensable.

Coincidentally, this ancient recipe was seen clearly by Long Xuan from afar. It was too careless to leave such a thing out in the open.

Unaware of being spied on, the old man continued to rage, oblivious to his alchemical skills and recipe being stolen.

As Long Xuan observed sneakily, he muttered to himself, "No wonder Old Long has stayed in that shabby hut all this ti. Turns out he's been in seclusion trying to complete the recipe."

Although only three ingredients were missing, Long Xuan, who often studied Gu recipes, knew that just these three could take a lifeti to complete.

Though the number three is small, the types of spirit dicines in this world are countless. Even random combinations of three could have countless possibilities.

Others might take ages to complete the recipe, constantly experinting with alchemy, which is ti-consuming, laborious, and uncertain whether failures are due to incorrect ingredients or operational errors.

In any world, alchemy has a high failure rate.

The greatest challenge in experinting with recipes is the cost. Each failure wastes a cauldron of materials.

One or two failures are manageable, but continuous failures will eventually deplete even a mountain of gold and silver.

Completing a recipe is a bottomless pit, draining all wealth with no guaranteed outco.

And the missing part of this recipe is the first three most expensive primary ingredients. Experinting with the most precious materials repeatedly, the high cost further complicates completing the recipe.

However, what is impossible for others is possible for Long Xuan.

The Eye of Heavenly Secrets has helped him figure out over three thousand materials; three ingredients are nothing.

He can complete the recipe without ti-consuming and laborious experints, and at zero cost. Using expensive materials is no problem for him.

For him, three ingredients are a piece of cake, especially since the elixir is called the Hundred Flowers Elixir, implying the ingredients are related to flowers. Limiting the type of spiritual dicine has greatly narrowed the scope for him.
