After thinking about it until now, Fang Yuan finally understood what a Vital Gu was.
According to the monster race, it was to connect the bloodline of a Gu worm to their own body and fuse with it, thus stimulating the double potential, also adding to the Gu worm.
As it forced out all of its potential, this also caused a monster to only be able to bind with one Vital Gu in its entire life.
On the other hand, humans did not have the unique conditions of the monster race.
Whether it was their physique or affinity to the elements, they were weaker by several levels. They were not even close at all.
Therefore, if humans used their method of refining Vital Gu directly on themselves, they would only explode and die from the powerful bloodline shock of the supplementary materials, unless their physique could be compared to the monster race.

Fang Yuan had consumed Gu wine all year round and thought that among his peers, his physique was already at the top, but compared to the monster race, he still had a long way to go.
He could not even compare to the light chasing thunder tiger!
Thus, the human race’s Vital Gu refinement method came into being.
The human race’s Vital Gu refinement method modified the most important step in the monster race’s Vital Gu refinement method.
It allowed the Vital Gu that shared potential to absorb the bloodline.
Originally, it should have fused with the Gu master as one, but now it was parasitic on the Gu master’s various body parts.
For example, Fang Yuan’s True Sight Gu could be refined into his eyeball, enhancing his vision while also possessing the original ability of the True Sight Cru.
It sounded terrifying, but in reality, it was the bloodline of the Gu being refined, sharing its ability with the Gu master.
It was not a Gu worm that could be stuffed into his eye.
Compared to the Gu refinement method of the monster race, which could increase one’s strength by several times, it was much weaker.
But this was something that could not be helped.
Moreover, there was a huge drawback.
The fused body parts could not be refined and replaced by another Vital Cru, and the Vital Gu itself could not evolve.
It was equivalent to being bound to this one for a lifetime.
Although there were many parts of the human body that could be used to refine Vital Gu, once the cultivation was successful, the disadvantage of not being able to evolve would cause many Gu worms to become less and less useful, until they were abandoned by the Gu master.
This was the problem Fang Yuan urgently wanted to solve.
In Gu Luan’s memories, the new generation of monster race’s Gu refinement methods were much better than those of the ancient times.
Among them, the biggest change was that the fused Vital Gu could materialize and fight side by side with its owner.
But this was not of much help to Fang Yuan’s confusion.
Thus, he needed to find a person who had already refined Vital Gu and ask for their personal feelings.
Yes!
He would also do some experiments.
The Wan clan was rather famous in the capital.
Fang Yuan asked for directions from a few passersby and quickly found his destination.
However, at this moment, there were white lanterns hanging above the main door of the Wan clan’s residence. The door was ajar and it was deserted inside. There was not a single guard or attendant.
“Could it be that something happened?”
He was puzzled.
Fang Yuan passed through the front courtyard and turned the long corridor. To his surprise, he found a pair of candles placed in the front hall with offerings.
There was a memorial tablet at the back. It seemed to be for Wan Qian’s elder.
“Senior? I am Fang Yuan, are you there?”
Fang Yuan gathered his spirit essence in his throat and called out.
Not long after, there was a sound coming from the backyard. Wan Qian was dressed in plain clothes, she walked over slowly, her face was filled with deep fatigue, and she looked extremely haggard.
Seeing Fang Yuan, she forced a smile. “Junior Fang, Why are you here?”
“The sect instructed me to bring people to participate in the Gu Dao convention, and you are one of them, so I came to inform you.”
