Pa pa pa …
Bean-sized raindrops fell densely. The raindrops hit the verdant bamboo building, making a crisp sound.
In the pond in front of the building, the surface of the water was beaten by the raindrops. Fish swam happily in the water, and water plants swayed at the bottom of the pond.
Dark clouds covered the sky, and the entire field of vision was blocked by a thick curtain of rain.
In a dark room, the window was open. Fang Yuan quietly watched the heavy rain, sighing in his heart, "It's already been three days and three nights."
Three days ago, he carried two jars of wine and left the village, continuing to explore the surroundings.
But late at night, it rained cats and dogs.
Let's not talk about him being drenched like a drowned rat. The key was that in such a situation, he could no longer explore around.
The rain could quickly wash away the smell of alcohol, and at the same time, if he forcefully explored in the rain, he might arouse suspicion.
Previously, he pretended to be frustrated and drunk to hide his true motives. But never underestimate the intelligence of others. Often, only fools would think that others were stupid.
So in desperation, Fang Yuan could only stop his exploration.
And this rain continued. During this period, it was heavy or light, sparse or dense, but it never stopped.
"This way, I won't be able to find the Liquor worm in a short period of time. To be safe, I can only start refining the Moonlight Gu. In this refining process, it would be best if I can find the Liquor worm, but if I can't, then I can only make do with it. But this is very normal. There are unpredictable winds and clouds in the sky. Is there anyone in this world who can always do things smoothly and perfectly? " Fang Yuan's state of mind was very calm. Five hundred years of experience had long washed away the impulsiveness in his temperament.
He closed the window and door, sitting cross-legged on the bed. He slowly closed his eyes, and after regulating his breathing, he sank his mind.
The next moment, the scene of his own aperture appeared in his mind.
Although the aperture was in the body, it was very mysterious, infinitely big and infinitely small.
On the outside of the aperture, there was a layer of light. The white light gave a very thin feeling, but it firmly supported the aperture.
In the aperture, there was a primeval sea.
The sea was bronze in color, and the surface was as calm as a mirror. The water level was about half of the aperture's height. The entire volume of the primeval sea occupied 44% of the aperture.
This was a Rank one Gu Master's bronze primeval sea. Every drop of seawater was primeval essence. It was Fang Yuan's life force, the condensation of Fang Yuan's essence.
Every drop of primeval essence was precious, because it was a Gu Master's foundation, the source of power. Using primeval essence, Gu Masters could refine and activate Gu worms..
As his mind left the primeval sea, Fang Yuan opened his eyes and took out the Moonlight Gu.
The Moonlight Gu quietly lay in Fang Yuan 'heart., "Gu" Moonlight Gu. Gu "Fang" Fang "Gu" Fang ".
"Bang." Bai light. of Gu Moonlight. it "Gu" in., "Gu". Gu, Fang Yuan, and, suddenly. the sea. "Moonlight.
. the sea. sea. "Gu"., and, and blue light. in. in. in. "Moonlight" in. "." Gu "Gu." Gu "in.". "
"Gu" Gu ". is." Gu was. were. is.. . It was a living creature. It was born free. It had its own will. Fang Yuan wanted to refine it. He wanted to erase its will. Sensing the danger, the Moonlight Gu resisted.
The process of refining was very difficult.
The Moonlight Gu was like a crescent moon. When the bronze primeval essence was injected into the crescent moon, the two tips of the crescent moon were dyed green.
Then, the bronze green color started to spread to the middle of the crescent moon.
In less than three minutes, Fang Yuan's face was pale. Large amounts of primeval essence kept pouring into the Moonlight Gu. It caused a feeling of weakness, like the meridians were being pulled out.
One percent, two percent, three percent … eight percent, nine percent, ten percent.
Ten minutes later, Fang Yuan's primeval sea had used up ten percent of his primeval essence. But on the surface of the blue crystal-like Moonlight Gu, the two bronze green dots at the crescent moon only expanded a little.
The Moonlight Gu's resistance was very tenacious.
Fortunately, Fang Yuan had expected this. He was not surprised. He continued to inject primeval essence into the Moonlight Gu.
Ten percent, twenty percent, thirty percent.
After another twenty minutes, Fang Yuan's primeval sea was only left with fourteen percent. The bronze green dots on the Moonlight Gu expanded a little. If the two green dots were superimposed, it would be about one-twelfth of the surface of the Moonlight Gu.
As for the rest, it was still the light blue color of the Moonlight Gu.
"Refining a Gu is difficult." Seeing this, Fang Yuan sighed. He stopped supplying primeval essence and stopped refining the Moonlight Gu.
At this moment, refining the Gu for half an hour had consumed more than half of the primeval sea. There was only fourteen percent of primeval essence left. And the Moonlight Gu had only been refined by one-twelfth.
Moreover, what was even more difficult to accept was that the Moonlight Gu was still emitting a faint blue halo. Although Fang Yuan stopped refining, it did not stop resisting. It was still expelling Fang Yuan's bronze primeval essence.
Fang Yuan could clearly feel that the primeval essence that had been injected into the Moonlight Gu was being expelled out of the body bit by bit. On the surface of the Moonlight Gu, the bronze green dots on the two crescent tips were also slowly shrinking.
Based on this rate of reduction, after about six hours, the Moonlight Gu would be able to expel all of Fang Yuan's primeval essence. At that time, refining this Gu would be no different from sacrificing it all over again.
"Every time I refine a Gu, it is like two armies fighting a battle of position, a war of attrition. I have only refined one-twelfth of the Gu, but my primeval essence has been consumed by a full thirty percent. When refining a Gu, a Gu Master must replenish the primeval essence in the primeval sea while continuously sacrificing to consolidate the results of victory. Refining a Gu is not only a test of the technique of mobilizing primeval essence, but also the patience of a prolonged battle. "
Fang Yuan thought as he took out a Yuan stone from his money bag.
There were usually two ways for a Gu Master to replenish primeval essence.
The first was natural recovery. Every once in a while, the primeval sea would automatically replenish primeval essence. For a C grade talent like Fang Yuan, it would take about an hour to replenish forty percent of primeval essence. In six hours, he could recover twenty-four percent of his total primeval essence.
The second method was to absorb the natural primeval energy in the Yuan stone.
The Yuan stone was a treasure of nature, condensing natural primeval essence and could be absorbed by a Gu Master.
Fang Yuan held the Yuan stone in his hand, continuously absorbing the natural primeval essence from within, into the primeval sea in his aperture.
The fine luster on the surface of the Yuan stone slowly dimmed, while the water level in Fang Yuan's primeval sea rose at a speed visible to the naked eye.
About half an hour later, the primeval sea had recovered to forty-four percent of its original size. At this point, the rising trend of the sea level came to an abrupt halt. Although there was still space in the aperture, Fang Yuan could no longer store any more primeval essence. This was the limitation of his C grade talent.
From this, one could see the importance of cultivation talent.
The higher the talent, the more primeval essence could be stored in the aperture, and the faster the natural recovery of primeval essence.
For Fang Yuan, to refine the Gu and consolidate the results, he had to absorb the Yuan stone. This was because the natural recovery speed of his primeval essence could not be compared to the speed at which the Moonlight Gu expelled primeval essence.
But for an A grade talent like Fangzheng, he could replenish eighty percent of primeval essence every hour. In six hours, he could recover forty-eight percent of his total primeval essence, while the Moonlight Gu could only expel thirty percent of primeval essence in the same six hours.
He did not even need external help like the Yuan stone. He could continue refining like this, rest a few times in between, and after a few days, he would be able to successfully refine the Moonlight Gu.
Therefore, from the beginning, Fang Yuan knew that in this assessment of refining the Moonlight Gu, he had no chance of getting first place. This had nothing to do with strength, but talent was the first factor.
The second factor was the Yuan stone.
If there was an abundance of Yuan stone, without hesitation, a B grade talent could also surpass an A grade talent and get first place.
"I only have six pieces of Yuan stone in my hands. I can't compare to people like Guyue Mobei and Guyue Cheng, who have the support of elders behind them. My talent is only C grade, and I can't compare to an A grade talent like Guyue Fangzheng. There was no chance of winning this assessment, so I might as well divert my energy to look for the Liquor worm. If I could refine the Liquor worm into my vital Gu, it would be much better than the Moonlight Gu. Hmm? The sound of the rain outside the window had lessened, and there seemed to be signs of it stopping. This rain has been going on for three days and three nights, it's time to stop. "
Fang Yuan put away the Moonlight Gu, got off the bed, and was about to open the window when there was a knock on the door.
The voice of his personal maid, Shen Cui, came from outside the door. "Young master Fang Yuan, it's me. It's been raining for three days, so I brought you some food and wine. Young master, eat and drink a little, and it will relieve some of your boredom. "
