The sunset is like blood and the grassland is vast.
A group of people gradually moved westward.
The Gu Masters in the team rode on hump wolves, accompanied by wind wolves and poison beard wolves.
The two of them were talking cordially and were having a great time.
After Fang Yuan destroyed Ge Yao's body, he followed Ge Yao's instructions and walked out of the poisonous grassland. The restraints on his body were also reduced, and his aura rose from the peak of the third level to the initial stage of the fourth level.
After Fang Yuan left the poisonous grassland, the first group of Gu Masters he met were Ge Guang and his companions who came to look for Ge Yao but were besieged by a pack of thousands of wolves.
When Ge Guang and the others were in a desperate situation, Fang Yuan took action. With his master-level beast taming skills, he used several poisonous beard wolf beast kings in his hands to recapture the wind wolf pack that had been restrained by Ge Guang and the others. After obtaining the first thousand beast kings, the size of the wolf pack in his hands also doubled to more than 2,400 heads.
Afterwards, Fang Yuan was invited by Ge Guang to go to the Ge family camp. Both parties had plans.
Ge Guang wanted to make friends with this powerful fourth-level expert. Making friends with such a master would be good not only for him personally, but also for the entire tribe.
Fang Yuan intended to use the Ge family as a springboard to truly integrate into Beiyuan. At the same time, he was short of Yuanshi and defensive Gu, and he also needed to trade with the Ge family to obtain them.
Fang Yuan sat on the comfortable saddle formed by the hump wolf's two humps, communicating with everyone while exploring the void.
There were only about ten Gu worms left in the empty cavity. Apart from the Spring and Autumn Cicada, the Second Empty Cavity Pseudo Gu, the Blood Skull Gu, and the Cup-Changing Gu, there were also the Gu worms in Beiyuan.
"From now on, I will travel around Beiyuan as Chang Shanyin, and I will mainly control wolves. This way, there is another obstacle, which is that I don't have the secret recipe of the third and fourth level wolf-controlling Gu."
Without the secret recipes of these two Gu, Fang Yuan would not have a large number of Wolf Taming Gu. Without these Wolf Taming Gu, the size of the wolf pack around Fang Yuan would be only a few thousand at most, which would not be a big deal.
"I don't know if Qi Tian can refine the Star Gate Gu, and I don't know how much support he will give me for the resources I ask him to acquire. I can't just rely on Qi Tian, I have to rely on myself to obtain resources in Beiyuan."
Fang Yuan's eyes became more determined. He would not put all his eggs in one basket. He would rely on Qi Tian, but he would never put all his hopes on others.
That is not his style, because he is a hero, because he is a real devil.
…
After Qi Tian arrived at the Night Soul Blessed Land, he opened the Tongtian Gu in the Night Soul Blessed Land and entered Huang Baotian under another identity.
The picture on Tongtian Gu kept changing, and Qi Tian was also searching for the resources he needed, such as poisonous insects, herds of beasts, and aliens.
"Lava dragonfly, firefly, Martian ladybug, fire moth, red flame flying ant... which one do you choose?"
There are many lava lakes in the west of Night Soul Paradise, and Qi Tian plans to make full use of them.
The first step is to introduce life. There are many insects that are suitable for living in magma, and Qi Tian has to choose a swarm of insects that best suits the conditions of the blessed land.
In some natural magma environments, there are many different kinds of bugs living in them. Because the blessed land is full of vitality, many kinds of bugs also appear in these lava lakes, but the number of each type is too small, and it takes a long time to form a large scale.
Introducing a single insect colony can easily form economies of scale and is also easier to cultivate. Insect colonies of the same species are easy to reproduce and increase in number quickly.
Although these insects can all survive in a magma environment, they each have their own characteristics and are suitable for different environments and needs.
Lava dragonflies feed on magma, and are suitable for blessed lands with excess magma; fire mosquitoes feed on the fire in magma, which can effectively reduce the temperature of magma; Martian ladybugs have a high rate of becoming poisonous insects, and have a high chance of transforming into (flame) poisonous insects; fire moths love light, and will be attracted to light sources after maturity; red flame flying ants are omnivorous and have the strongest survival ability...
The main purpose of Qi Tian introducing the Flame Dao Insect Swarm into the Night Soul Paradise was not to allow the insect swarm to directly transform into Flame Dao Gu Insects, nor was it to introduce beasts to provide food.
The biggest goal is still the sea of ghost lanterns.
The ghost lantern flower is distributed on the grasslands in the south and north of the blessed land. However, because it likes the sun and hates the shade, it is concentrated near the west, forming a sea of ghost lantern flowers.
The ghost lantern looks like a white paper lantern with a faint ghost fire burning on the wick in the center of the lantern. The lantern hangs on the flower stem and sways in the breeze.
The will-o'-the-wisp in the wick is the life essence of the entire plant. As time goes by, the will-o'-the-wisp will continue to grow. When the will-o'-the-wisp reaches a certain limit, it will split from it and produce a will-o'-the-wisp Gu.
Under normal circumstances, an ordinary ghost lantern flower will produce a first-level ghost fire Gu every two years, and will wither after ten years due to the exhaustion of its life essence.
However, not every split can form a ghost fire Gu. The failure rate of the first-level ghost fire Gu formation is as high as 40%. That is, an ordinary ghost lantern flower will eventually form only three first-level ghost fire Gu.
But there is another way to increase production. The evolution of Gu from insects in nature is one of the most common mechanisms of Gu formation.
Some insects, due to their phototaxis, often enter the moths of the nightshade and fly into the flames, eventually killing themselves. But there are always exceptions, and not every insect will be burned to death.
Some of the flying insects seemed to have aroused some mysterious potential under the pressure of life and death brought by the will-o'-the-wisp.
These flying insects did not die immediately during the burning process, but gradually adapted to the burning. The essence of their lives was sublimated and they evolved into ghost fire insects, separating from the ghost fire.
Although this production method will accelerate the decline of the ghost lantern flower, the time it takes to mature will be shortened to 25 days, less than one month, and the formed ghost fire Gu will be mixed with a lot of second-level Gu or even third-level Gu.
Qi Tian introduced insects that adapt to high temperatures in the western part of the blessed land in order to use them to increase the production of ghost fire Gu. Flying insects that adapt to high temperature environments experience the burning of ghost fires, and the probability of metamorphosis into Gu is more than ten times higher than that of ordinary insects.
"Lava dragonflies will not leave the lava environment, and external force transfer is not only troublesome, but also ineffective."
"When the fire-sucking mosquito enters the ghost lantern cage, it will suck the ghost fire instead, causing the ghost fire Gu production to decrease."
"The Red Flame Flying Ant is an omnivore. It also feeds on the flowers and plants in the blessed land, and the Ghost Lantern Flower is no exception."
"Which one is better, the Martian ladybug or the fire moth?"
Qi Tian finally decided to choose the fire moth.
Why?
Of course, fire moths are cheaper and have low cost.
Qi Tian spent half a fairy stone to buy 1.6 million fire moths.
"Huh? Someone is actually buying the Beast King!"
In Huangbaotian, although there are people selling Beast Kings, they are definitely not many, and they will be immediately bought by other Gu Immortals.
What is for sale is a water wolf king, the size of an elephant, the body is as white as snow, spotless, and the wolf eyes are like sapphires in the deep sea, shining. It gives people a sense of elegance and nobility.
As soon as the Water Wolf King appeared, he immediately attracted three competitors.
This wolf king was in good condition and was not an old wolf king that had retired from the herd. The Gu Immortal who was selling it was in urgent need of immortal essence stones, so he had to sell the water wolf king.
After a chaotic exchange of thoughts, Qi Tian finally bought the Water Wolf King for three Immortal Yuan Stones. At the same time, there were also 110,000 water wolves.
Afterwards, Qi Tian bought a few exotic wolves, as well as some poisonous insects, secret recipes, materials, etc.
In the end, there were only five pieces of Xianyuan Stone left.
"Spending money like water!" Qi Tian sighed. He hadn't bought many things and only five Xianyuan Stones were left.
Qi Tian placed a group of fire moths in a lava lake near the grassland.
Young fire moths have not yet fully grown wings and cannot fly, so they can only survive on the surface of the lava, which is also suitable for their survival. Only mature fire moths can leave the lava lake.
Because of the faint blue light emitted by the ghost lantern flower, the fire moths leaving the lava lake will fly eastward towards the blue light and reach the ghost lantern flower sea area.
The water wolf pack was placed by Qi Tian in the eastern part of the blessed land. There were a lot of fat mud fish in the reservoir in the east, which served as food for the wolf pack. In addition, there were several shark-fin wolves and white-eyed wolves around the reservoir here.
Qi Tian hoarded the wolf pack in Beiyuan, naturally he didn't intend to directly support Fang Yuan.
Qi Tian is not a saint, and will not act as a babysitter for Fang Yuan. And Fang Yuan is not someone who cannot become stronger without Qi Tian's support.
The battle for the royal court was a war that swept across the Northern Plains, with millions of lives at stake.
And to Beiyuan Gu Xian, the battle for the royal court is, in essence, a game.
But not all Gu Immortals can afford to play this game. Its cost is too much for even some wealthy Gu Immortals to bear.
But its benefits are enough to attract the Gu Immortals.
In order to harvest an Immortal Gu, many Gu Immortals joined this gamble. In the end, most of them lost miserably, and some even lost everything.
Qi Tian remembered that in the original novel, in this battle for the royal court, the individual tribes basically did not really take action.
Only Heicheng and Heibai from the Hei family invested huge amounts, and Xuesongzi, the magic sorcerer who supported the Ma family, spent all his family wealth.
Qi Tian naturally intended to sell the wolf packs he stockpiled to Heicheng and Heibai in the future.
In this life, according to Qi Tian's plan, if nothing unexpected happens, the final battle will still be between the Hei Family Alliance and the Ma Family Alliance.
Although Fang Yuan in the plan would not get much support from the blessed land, as long as Fang Yuan survived the initial development stage in Beiyuan and joined the Black Family Alliance, he would be able to get the support of the Black Family Alliance. It would not be a problem for him to become the key figure in the final victory.
Among the resources that Black City and Black Bai use to support Black Loulan, wolves must be the largest part. When the time comes, Qi Tian will sell the wolves, wolf kings, and alien wolves stored in the two blessed lands at a high price, and he will definitely make a fortune in immortal stones.
