The Path of Immortality: Starts With Creating Water Bear Gu

Chapter 203: Into the Trap



"Kill them all!"

Led by six Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators of the Bai Clan, a large wave of Bai Clan Gu cultivators surged into the Long Clan camp like a tide. Everyone’s eyes glowed with ferocity, revealing a ruthless demeanor.

The six Bai Clan Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators, with bloodshot eyes and murderous intent, charged directly towards the residences of the three Long Clan supervisors.

Bai Ye led the charge, kicking open the door without hesitation and storming inside. It was obvious his hatred for the Long Clan was the deepest.

The other Bai Clan Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators were not far behind, smashing the windows with vicious grins on their faces before swiftly jumping through them.

However, the moment they barged into the house, their bodies froze instantly. Their expressions stiffened, and they stood there dumbfounded.

Because there weren't just three people inside—nor were there only three Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators.

There were twelve. A total of twelve Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators from the Long Clan.

At that moment, all twelve Long Clan Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators were grinning viciously at them, and the Bai Clan group was completely stunned.

"We've been tricked! Run!"

Bai Ye, who was the first to charge in, was also the fastest to flee.

His face had gone pale as he desperately ran for his life.

He was truly bewildered. His mind was in a haze. He couldn’t understand how so many people could have hidden in that small house.

How did they get in? When did they get in? Their appearance was utterly bizarre, driving him mad.

He would probably never have imagined that there was a type of Gu insect in this world that could transport living beings over long distances.

"Not good! Run!"

The remaining five Bai Clan Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators were nearly scared to death. The ferocity they had displayed earlier had vanished. At this moment, they wished they had four legs as they desperately tried to escape.

However, they had already entered the Long Clan’s territory, and such an important Geng Metal mine vein would surely be protected by formation arrays.

As soon as the mine-protecting formation activated, all the Bai Clan members were trapped inside. Where could they possibly run to now?

"Hmph! Since you've come, you might as well stay."

"Do you really think this is a place where you can come and go as you please?"

Long Gang smirked mockingly and swiftly gave chase.

The others in the house also grinned viciously and followed, their faces filled with excitement, like cats toying with mice.

Outside, chaos reigned. It was clear that the Long Clan had been well-prepared for this night. Countless Bai Clan Gu cultivators charged into the Long Clan camp.

But what awaited them wasn’t easy prey; instead, they were met by fully-armored "Earth Masters."

These Earth Masters were clearly not a ragtag group of miners but an elite force that the Long Clan had invested heavily in.

Their armor was uniform, allowing them to form a powerful mountain-guarding formation. The Earth Masters had clearly trained for this, displaying an exceptional level of coordination.

The Bai Clan Gu cultivators who charged in were immediately met with disaster. The killing formation on the Earth Masters' backs activated, and the intruding Bai Clan Gu cultivators were slaughtered in waves. In mere moments, the ground was littered with corpses.

A massive wave of Earth Masters surged forward, crushing the Bai Clan Gu cultivators in their path. Countless Bai Clan Gu cultivators were trampled to death by these behemoths. The ground shook as they moved, and the sheer momentum was terrifying.

The Bai Clan Gu cultivators were utterly routed after just one encounter. It turned into a one-sided massacre.

In no time, rivers of blood flowed across the battlefield. Countless bodies lay strewn across the ground, and the wails of the dying echoed as the Earth Masters trampled over them.

To make matters worse, the mine-protecting formation of the Long Clan camp had been activated. A solid barrier trapped everyone inside.

The Bai Clan Gu cultivators had no place to run. They were now like fish in a barrel, their faces filled with despair as they desperately tried to break through the barrier in front of them.

However, how could the mine-protecting formation be something they could easily breach? All their efforts were in vain.

Upon seeing this scene, Bai Ye's eyes were filled with rage and despair. These were over 800 Gu cultivators of the Bai Clan, among whom were not a few talented Marrow Cleansing stage Gu cultivators, not to mention their six Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators.

If all of these people were to perish here today, the Bai Clan would suffer an immeasurable loss.

As the initiator of this mission, Bai Ye would become the clan's sinner. How could he ever face the clan elders again? He forced out a pained smile.

“Run? Where do you think you can run! Stay here obediently, all of you!”

Because the road was blocked by a barrier, the six of them were soon overtaken by the twelve Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators from the Long Clan. The chaotic battle between the Spiritual Sea stage cultivators quickly ensued.

However, with six against twelve, how could they fight? This was a battle with no suspense—a one-sided massacre.

Just in terms of external Gu alone, the Long Clan had double the amount of the Bai Clan. One by one, the Bai Clan’s Gu insects were bitten to death.

Even before the Long Clan’s Gu insects could finish off all the Bai Clan's insects, the Bai Clan’s Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators had already begun to fall.

Suddenly, Bai Yu was struck in the head by Long Qian, who had transformed into a dragon-man, shattering his skull. In front of this dragon-man, Bai Yu couldn’t even withstand a single move.

His death also caused all of his Gu insects to instantly perish, further worsening the situation for the Bai Clan on the battlefield.

“Hahaha… exhilarating! As expected of the Dragon Blood Battle Gu! The power! The speed! The defense! I’m invincible now! Take another punch!”

Long Qian laughed wildly as he selected his next target, charging toward Bai Ye, the strongest among the crowd.

Seeing this humanoid monster covered in bone spikes, with a tail and sharp claws, charging at him, Bai Ye was completely numb.

What kind of monster was this? How could its combat strength be so terrifying? Just how many more secrets did the Long Clan have that he didn’t know?

But there was no time to think further. The monster was already hurtling toward him like a cannonball, and Bai Ye could only grit his teeth and face it head-on.

The outcome of this battle was obvious without needing much elaboration. It was a crushing defeat for the Bai Clan. Whether high-grade or low-grade Gu cultivators, they were all beaten into submission, unable to put up any resistance, and the battle ended in a very short time.

All the Bai Clan Gu cultivators who had charged in were slaughtered to the last person, with no survivors. Bai Ye fell to the ground, dying with his eyes open in disbelief. Even in death, he couldn’t understand why his seemingly perfect plan had failed.

For this night raid, the Bai Clan had sent all their forces, leaving no one behind to defend the rear.

So, after this great battle, there would be no more Bai Clan Gu cultivators at this mining vein. Their operation at this mine was completely paralyzed.

Without any Gu capable of burrowing, it was uncertain how long it would take for them to send a large group of miners to the site.

This place was far from Blackstone City, and if it had been close, this vein of Geng Metal ore would have long been discovered by the powerful cultivators of Blackstone City. There was no way it would’ve been left untouched until now.

But with such a long gap, it would be more than enough time for the Long Clan's miners to dig deep into the Bai Clan's mining area. It also gave Long Xuan ample time to mine the Bai Clan's Geng Metal essence completely clean.

Long Qian immediately decided that all the Long Clan miners would stop mining their own veins and rush over to the Bai Clan’s territory to mine instead.

They would take as much as they could. By the time the Bai Clan sent people over, they could simply retreat without any problem.

Everyone went mad with killing that night, but the chaotic battle came and went swiftly. The battle ended quickly, and the Long Clan’s Gu cultivators began to happily divide the spoils.

The twelve Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators from the Long Clan couldn't stop grinning. The storage bags from the six Bai Clan Spiritual Sea stage cultivators contained many treasures, and even after being divided among twelve, each person still got a good share of loot.

Long Gang gleefully stored his share of treasures in his storage bag, smiling at Long Qian as he said, “This Dragon Blood Battle Gu is truly one of the top eight most powerful Gu in our clan's history. It’s absolutely dominating.”

“In that glorious era, perhaps the Dragon Blood Battle Gu wasn’t such a big deal, but in this small place, it is enough to kill gods and Buddhas alike. Nothing can stop it.”

“If someone could refine a Dragon Blood Battle Gu, they would be invincible among their peers unless they encountered a true prodigy.”

“I really envy you. I wonder when I’ll get my own Dragon Blood Battle Gu.”

Looking at Long Qian’s awe-inspiring half-dragon form, Long Gang’s face was full of envy.

Long Qian patted him on the shoulder and laughed, “No need to be envious. As long as you reach the peak of the Spiritual Sea stage, there’s a chance.”

“In the past, this thing required massive contributions to obtain.”

“But after our clan gained a huge amount of resources from the zombie plague siege, we have more Dragon Blood Battle Gu than we need.”

“And with the looming war, the clan will definitely distribute them to reduce the loss of our strong cultivators.”

“Of course, they’ll be issued on credit, so the contributions you earn will go toward repaying the debt. Prepare to spend years or even decades paying it off.”

“Really?” Long Gang’s eyes lit up, clenching his fists with excitement.

The other Spiritual Sea stage Gu cultivators also began breathing heavily, their faces flushed with excitement after hearing this news.

Long Zhan, too, clenched his fists in excitement. He was already in the late stage of the Spiritual Sea, just one step away from the peak.

He had now made up his mind to break through to the peak as quickly as possible. Such a heaven-defying Gu as the Dragon Blood Battle Gu was surely limited in quantity, and if he broke through too late, there might not be any left for him.

“Alright! Everyone, keep your mouths shut. Whether it’s the secret of the Sou Gu's ability to transport people or the secret of the Dragon Blood Battle Gu, none of it can be revealed.”

“The Bai Clan secretly dug a tunnel into our clan's mining area, and the Geng Metal ore they mined was from our side. I’m taking it all back to the clan, which is perfectly reasonable.”

“Also, have Long Xuan send back the footage recorded by the Image Record Gu, and we’ll broadcast it across the city, showing how the Bai Clan launched a night raid on our clan. Let the city lord see who the real victims are here.”

“I can’t wait to see the expressions on the faces of the Bai Clan's higher-ups. They’re destined to suffer in silence this time, unable to say a word. It’s going to be so satisfying! Hahaha…”

Long Qian burst into laughter, and the others followed, their joyous laughter echoing throughout the night sky.
