REVEREND INSANITY
Chapter 17: Start repairing the Liquor worm

“With my C-class talent, the number of my primeval seas in the aperture is only 44%. The speed at which Gu used the primordial essence was much faster than my own recovery rate. If I want to repair Gu, I need to borrow external help, which means I have to throw away the ancient stone. ”

“The weaker Gu's will, the smaller the resistance, the easier it will be for me to fix it. Every living creature will always have the desire to live. To repair Moonlight Gu, I need at least five ancient stones, at most I need eight pieces.”

“Currently to purify the Liquor worm, I need at least eleven pieces, at most I need sixteen pieces.” Although the Liquor worm was also a Rank one Gu like Moonlight Gu, but it was obviously rarer. Thus the difficulty of the refinement process also increased.

In other words, even though Fang Yuan currently had seventeen ancient stones, but just to purify the Liquor worm, he at most had six pieces, or at least one ancient stone.

At night, the bright crescent moon emits a clear and pure moonlight. The moonlight was like the holy woman's soft hand, gently caressing Gu Yue Village. Along the way the bamboo houses were like jade, standing in large numbers. The night wind was blowing slowly.

Under the moonlight, Fang Yuan found his way back to the inn. The door of the inn was closed. Fang Yuan banged on the door.

"I hear you! I heardyou! Who was it, knocking on the door this late.” Inn workers grumbled as they opened the door, his eyes puffy with sleep.

But when he saw Fang Yuan standing at the door, all the displeasure and drowsiness from his expression changed, and he bowed his waist and said with a flattered smile, "Ah, that's his young master. This little fellow is very lucky to be able to open the door for His Majesty. ”

Fang Yuan nodded his head, his expression cold with indifference, and walked to the inn.

His expression made the worker laugh more humbly, and he took the initiative to ask, “Sir, are you hungry? Do you want me to tell the kitchen and make some small dishes for you as dinner?”

"No need," Fang Yuan shook his head and simply ordered, "Go and prepare hot water for me, I want to take a bath myself."

"Yes!" The worker immediately nodded, “My master, go to your room first. I assure you, hot water will be delivered soon. ”

Fang Yuan let out a sound of approval and went up the stairs, heading towards the second floor. The worker watched Fang Yuan's back, his two eyes glittering in the light, revealing a jealous expression.

"This is Master Gu, oh if only I had the talent to cultivate, how good would it be!" He clenched his fists, sighing deeply. These words floated into Fang Yuan's ears and he smiled bitterly in his heart.

A Master Gu had the power to surpass humans, being human above humans, but in this process the price to pay was also very high.

The first problem is financial resources. A Master Gu needed an ancient stone to cultivate, the battle also needed an ancient stone, the purification of Gu also needed an ancient stone, the trade was no exception.

Without ancient stones, how could cultivation be done?

This point was a difficult position that, as an ordinary human watching from the sidelines, would not be understood by the innkeeper.

Just like before at night, Young Master Gu Jiang Ya vented her anger and displeasure at the hunters when she dropped their wine jars. The point is – He himself could not bear to spend the ancient stone to drink this green bamboo wine, but these ordinary human-only hunters actually had that kind of money!

To catch a glimpse of the entire picture, just that meaning alone could tell a lot about the cultivation situation of a Master Gu. The strength of a Master Gu was great, they achieved more than ordinary humans, but the price was also good. Repeatedly using every piece of ancient stone required great consideration, especially when it came to lower ranked Gu Masters. Do not be deceived by a noble surface; in fact the life of a GuMaster is constantly burdened by money.

“Not to mention, as Master Gu realm increased, the resources they needed also increased. Without proper support, it is very difficult for Master Gu's path to cultivation. ” Fang Yuan thought about his previous life and had a deep understanding of this reality.

He went back to his room. Right after he turned on the lights, the inn worker came with a basin filled with hot water. Of course, there are cloth towels and other toiletries.

Fang Yuan let the worker go and closed the room door. He put down the door latch, washed himself and went up to his bed.

Even though his body felt a little tired, his heart was still blazing with waves of excitement. “I finally got the Liquor worm. Liquor Worms were rarer than Moonlight Gu, because in a sense it was Gu who increased Master Gu's pent-up talent!”

Fang Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed and took out the Liquor worm. Liquor's worms are still sleeping soundly. His body size was slightly larger than Moonlight Gu, soft and white like a silkworm.

Under the light, his body was enveloped in a layer of wavering dim light, like a gentle pearl luster. Two small eyes that resembled two black sesame seeds were mounted on his plump white head, making him appear extremely naive.

Placed in his hand, it was not heavy. It weighs about half a chicken egg. As he kissed her carefully, his body gave off the scent of wine. This scent was not the scent of green bamboo wine but the scent of the Liquor worm itself. It smelled faint and foggy, as if nothing. Fang Yuan's nose twitched as he inhaled the scent of the Liquor worm.

The scent of wine moved straight down into the hole, entering the ancient sea of green copper. The primordial sea surged and rippled for a moment, quickly absorbing the wine. A sparkle of pure and refined primordial essence was produced.

Another ancient essence had an emerald green color, glowing with a metallic copper luster. Yet this primordial essence was pale green, and more viscous than the original primordial essence. This was the primordial essence that an intermediate level one-tier Gu Master could produce.

Aware of the pale green primordial essence luster in his green copper sea, Fang Yuan revealed a satisfied smile. “Currently my cultivation base is only the initial stage of Rank one. But with the condensation of the Liquor worm, once the primordial essence is refined, I will be able to possess the primordial essence of a rank one intermediate realm. The beauty of this benefit is something that cannot be said in a sentence or two.”

But soon, he took back his smile. “But at this time I have not fully mastered the Liquor worm. Only when I purify the Liquor worm and turn it into my vital Gu will I be able to use it freely and then with maximum efficiency, refine my primordial essence. ”

Liquor Worm felt its life in danger and immediately woke up. It began to struggle hard, using its own strength to expel Fang Yuan's primordial essence.

“This Liquor worm has very strong resistance.” Fang Yuan's complexion turned grim as he felt the level of ancient essence consumption exceeded more than double what Moonlight Gu had consumed.

"No matter what, I have to fix the Liquor worm." Both of his eyes shone with a powerful light as he continued to pour his primeval essence into the Liquor worm.

Inside the room, the candles on the table lit up quietly, shining a bright light in the middle of the room while the far corners of the walls were dark. The candlelight radiated on Fang Yuan's face but he had already closed his eyes, gathering all his focus onto the Liquor worm.

A continuous burst of copper-green-colored ancient essence that resembled a burst of mist emitted out from Fang Yuan's entire body, then gathered together and firmly wrapped around the Liquor worm. Liquor Worm floated in midair, less than a foot away from Fang Yuan's face. It struggled with all its might amidst the green copper ancient essence.

Time passed quietly.

When the candles are lit, they become smaller and the light is dimmer. The crescent moon outside the window slowly descended, and then a new day arrived.

The morning light entered through a narrow gap in the window and illuminated the room. It was like a window had a bright edge.

Fang Yuan opened his eyes and looked at the Liquor worm in front of him. The white body of the Liquor worm has a green color. This was the result of Fang Yuan's efforts after half a night. But it is clear that the volume of this green color is not even 1% of the body of the Liquor worm.

Fang Yuan's face looked grim. The will of this Liquor worm was too tenacious and its resistance was extremely strong; simply this was beyond the limits of rank one Gu.

“This gu is most likely the Gu vital Flower Wine Monk. The Flower Wine Monk was a rank five master, so this Liquor Worm was originally a Rank five, but because he passed through so many years without enough food, it was not, it was quite full in one moment and hungry in the next, so its value also dropped. Currently remaining at level one, yet his will was still as strong as a rock!”

Fang Yuan had guessed the truth.

This Liquor Worm was originally a Gu vital Flower Wine Monk. His original will had been wiped clean and refined to the end; it had accompanied the Flower Wine Monk throughout all of his battles, passing through the underground world.

After the Vine Flower Monk died, his strong determination continued to exist in the Liquor worm. Right now with Fang Yuan trying to purify the Liquor worm, it actually meant fighting against the will of the Flower Wine Monk.

This was much more difficult than trying to refine a natural Gu.

Human wills are generally stronger than natural Gu. When facing death humans were able to produce a power that they could not even imagine on their own. Not to mention the Flower Wine Monk was the ruler of the Demon faction. He came and went by himself, up and down the underground world. His will was more tenacious than his level masters from the True faction.

“To purify this Liquor worm in a month is not possible, unless there was a powerful master who could use the second or third rank Gu's breath to suppress this Liquor worm and suppress the will within the worm's body to the lowest limit. Under this kind of help then I would be able to do twice as much with half the effort. ” As he pondered, Fang Yuan could not help but sigh.

Her parents had died when her aunt and uncle conspired against her. He himself had no support, so where could he find external help?

If he had A-grade talent there might still be a chance, but he was only a C-class talent. Everyone in the clan was not optimistic about him, so who would be willing to expend such energy to come and help him?

More importantly, he could not expose the existence of the Liquor worm.

There were no Liquor worms in Gu Yue Village, and Fang Yuan was unable to explain about the origin of these Liquor worms. If it was revealed, there was a high chance that the higher-ups would find out and relate it to the case of the Flower Wine Monk. It is too easy to think about the relationship between the two.

“Based on this fact, seventeen ancient stones will not be enough. I need at least thirty ancient stones! How troublesome, but no matter how difficult I still want to repair this Liquor worm. ” Fang Yuan's own desires were like metal, and he was already determined to repair the Liquor worm.

The importance of Gu vital is huge. It would greatly affect Master Gu's future cultivation direction. Although the Liquor worm was not the world's best choice for the vital Gu, it was still much better than Moonlight Gu. It was also the best choice in Fang Yuan's current situation.

Snarling…

At this moment Fang Yuan's stomach appeared with a shout of protest.

After an entire sleepless night and trying hard to repair the Liquor worm, Fang Yuan was naturally hungry.

“I guess I'll go and fill my stomach first and think of a way to collect ancient stones.” Fang Yuan rubbed his stomach and descended. He went to the cafeteria and chose a corner seat, ordering some kind of breakfast dish.

As he started eating, his younger brother Gu Yue Fang Zheng appeared.

"Sister, why are you staying at the inn, why didn't you go back home and sleep last night?" Her brother was very straightforward, his tone carried the implication that it demanded an explanation
