Chapter 117: The Completion of the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm

After returning to the pavilion on the mountain, Long Xuan took a sip of the second-grade honey water and officially began researching the recipe for honey wine.

He had previously created four types of spiritual wine recipes in one go, gaining experience in creating his own recipes. Just like creating alchemical formulas, there are certain rules to creating wine recipes, so not every ingredient has to be guessed.

Long Xuan became quite skilled at this, and it only took him four months to successfully research the honey wine recipe.

He wrote the large characters “Returning Spirit Wine” on the recipe and added the note “◎Written By Long Xuan” under the title.

This wine recipe, primarily made from honey, was successfully developed by him.

Long Xuan put down his pen and revealed a satisfied smile.

He named this newly created spiritual wine “Returning Spirit Wine” because the honey produced by the Ice Bees has the effect of restoring spiritual power.

Naturally, the wine brewed from Ice Bee honey also has the effect of restoring spiritual power, and its efficacy is even better—about twice as strong as the Returning Spirit Pills available on the market. Given this, the wine recipe was aptly named “Returning Spirit Wine.”

In battle, having something that can restore spiritual power is incredibly important—almost a lifesaver.

You could say that medicines that restore spiritual power are essential in battle, needed by everyone.

Long Xuan was naturally very satisfied with such a practical ability.

At this moment, he was contemplating whether to hang a wine gourd on his waist and carry the Returning Spirit Wine with him as a must-have item for his future travels. After all, he had plenty of honey, and there was more Returning Spirit Wine than he could ever drink.

Most importantly, Returning Spirit Wine is delicious—sweet, and with different flowers infusing it with different flavors, it never gets boring.

He smiled as he handed the recipe to the Fire Clone, ordering it to immediately brew the Returning Spirit Wine, distill it, fill a wine jar, and then throw Little White into it to see if it could undergo a evolution.

After consuming the items sent by Long Lie, the Dragon Gu had already successfully transformed; it couldn’t fall behind for too long.

In the anxious waiting that followed, two more months passed, and on this day, the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm finally completed its transformation.

Long Xuan had already calculated the time based on progress hints, so on this day, he got up early and waited by the cauldron. Before long, the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm broke out of the cauldron. The moment it flew out, Long Xuan, quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed it and immediately made a blood pact with it.

The Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm’s primary material was the Ten Thousand year Ice Silkworm, so it looked very similar—chubby, ice-blue all over, and extraordinarily cute.

Long Xuan instantly liked this adorable little creature, caressing its chubby body lovingly, his smile so wide it could hardly stay contained. He gave it a cute name: Xiao Meng (Little Dream).

There was no need to elaborate on Little Dream’s abilities; its power lay in spitting out energy-formed silk. This silk could be used to weave the legendary Soul Armor.

The Soul Armor could not only defend against physical attacks but also against soul attacks, spiritual power attacks, sonic attacks...

In short, it could defend against everything—extremely powerful, to the point of being overwhelmingly so.

The most crucial feature is that the energy-formed Soul Armor has no physical form and can be directly fused onto the body’s surface, even protecting areas like the eyes, which are typically impossible to shield.

Once wearing this Soul Armor, Long Xuan would have no weaknesses; every part of his body would be protected, which is simply astonishing.

Although Long Xuan was eager to craft the Soul Armor he had envisioned, he ultimately did not rush.

Now was not the time for the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm to spin its silk—it had no food in its stomach, so how much silk could it produce?

The silk it produces is not made out of thin air. Previously, it needed to consume large quantities of spiritual leaves to spit out various exquisite silk threads.

The leaves of a Earth-grade spiritual herb turned out to be the catalyst for the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm's Evolution.

Following this pattern, one of the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm's Evolution paths might be that every time it consumes the leaves of a Earth-grade spiritual herb, it undergoes a Evolution.

He had accidentally discovered a Evolution path for the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm.

However, this evolution path was rather difficult. Earth-grade spiritual herbs are not easy to find. The fact that he had managed to find a Fire Dragon Fruit Tree was already an incredible stroke of luck. How could he have the luck to find a second type of Earth-grade spiritual herb?

Moreover, if he wanted the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm to keep evolving, finding just a few Earth-grade spiritual herbs wouldn't be enough. He would need a whole bunch of them, and this thought gave him a headache.

At this moment, Long Xuan was both surprised and delighted.

What a coincidence! Unexpected things happen all the time, and the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm had unexpectedly started its evolution right after being born.

It unexpectedly outpaced Little White, completing its metamorphosis first, which meant little white could no longer hold onto second place and would have to settle for third.

Long Xuan took a deep breath, suppressing the joy in his heart, and placed it into the insect-rearing pouch, allowing it to undergo its transformation slowly.

The fact that the Heavenly Dream Dragon Silkworm had just emerged and immediately began to evolve was a good thing. He could now wear a second-tier Soul Armor right away, without needing to transition from first-tier Soul Armor.

Feeling excited, he ran towards the large wine jar again.

Beside the pavilion, there was a giant wine jar, and inside it was soaking Snake Wine. A small white snake was floating inside the jar.

Long Xuan planned to check on Little White's condition. He ran over to take a curious look into the jar and discovered that the intensity of the Returning-Spirit Wine was too high. Little White had drunk herself into a stupor again and was now floating on the surface of the wine, eyes tightly shut, completely still.

Drinking had caused it to mess up again, and it seemed like he was definitely going to be in third place now...

Long Xuan shook his head helplessly and finally turned to leave.

Now that three peak-grade Gu insect had successfully evolved, it was time to consider the evolution of the Eye of Heavenly Secret.

As for how the Eye of Heavenly Secret could evolve, he had no clue. This was a Gu insect he had created himself, and its evolution would have to be figured out by him as well. There were no ready-made answers to follow.

After much thought, he decided to seek guidance from his senior sister.

He planned to see how the Dragon Clan's Evil Dragon Emperor Eye had evolved. Both were eye-based Gu insect, sharing many similarities, so perhaps he could learn something.

Of course, this was only one reason. The main purpose of visiting Long Ziyan was to strengthen their relationship.

Frequent contact was necessary to build familiarity. Otherwise, long periods of silence would create distance. Long Xuan decided to occasionally ask her questions about cultivation, using that as an excuse to visit her. Over time, they'd naturally grow closer; after all, all couples start from familiarity.

In any case, he was acting under the orders of the Elder Long, so his reasons were entirely legitimate.

Long Xuan, with ambitious intentions and ulterior motives, smiled as he ran towards Long Ziyan's cave.

With his Star-Stepping speed, the distance between their caves wasn't far, and he reached it in about an hour.
