Chapter 467 The Reward Is Very Generous

In the past, Gu Zheng had to wait for the weapon spirit to remind him that turtle shells could be used to make armor.

However, it was different now. Gu Zheng understood the way of eating and drinking, and he could see the extraordinary quality of the turtle shell at a glance. However, in terms of knowledge, Gu Zheng is still not as good as Qi Ling. There is nothing that can be done about this. After all, he is only in his twenties.

"Weapon Spirit, is the tortoise that made this magical artifact a tortoise? The ingredient level of the tortoise shell can still be maintained at excellent quality!" Gu Zheng asked.

They have all been refined into immortal weapons, and the ingredient level of the turtle shell can still be maintained at an excellent level. This is a very rare thing.

However, it is a pity that when it was worn on Lu Qi's body, the turtle shell was enlarged, and after the explosion, it returned to its original size. The fragments found after Gu Zheng collected them, Put together, it is only about the size of a palm, barely enough to make an armored meal.

"This turtle is so small, but the grade of the ingredients after being refined into an immortal weapon can still remain at an excellent level. Then there is only one possibility. This turtle has the bloodline of the mythical beast Xuanwu, and the purity of the bloodline is still high. Not low." Qi Ling said.

Gu Zheng nodded and began to prepare the cooking for the Iron Armored Food Cultivator.

One high-quality main ingredient, plus six medium-level auxiliary ingredients, this is the formula for top-grade iron armor food repair.

Gu Zheng picked out the accessories from the ancient space and couldn't help but think of the armored food repairman he made for the first time.

At that time, we were still in the ruins of Shu, and we spent a lot of time fighting to get the tortoise shell of the earth turtle, the main ingredient for cooking armored food.

At that time, even an ordinary-level ingredient could make Gu Zheng extremely happy. Now that he got medium-level ingredients, Gu Zheng was already numb.

"Weapon Spirit, is it true that food cultivators are only divided into upper, middle and lower grades?"

In the past, there were few resources and low cultivation level. Gu Zheng never asked this question, but now we have to make high-grade armor and food cultivation, and the main materials used are only excellent! If high-grade ingredients are used as the main ingredients and high-quality ingredients are used as the auxiliary ingredients, can the grade of food repair be exceeded? Based on his current understanding of ancient times, he felt that he could definitely do it!

"Of course there are not only upper, middle and lower grades. I told you before that there are only upper, middle and lower grades. That's because your cultivation level is still low. Even ordinary-level ingredients are very scarce for you. It's useless to tell you, so I will Let me tell you. In fact, it’s better than having good food. There is also the Immortal Food Cultivation, but the cooking of the Immortal Food Cultivation is easy to fail, and Master Tie Xian did not leave the recipe for the Immortal Food Cultivation. You have to wait until you have enough resources to try the Immortal Food Cultivation. When cooking, I tried it myself." Qi Ling said.

"Judging from the current situation, cooking immortality and food cultivation are still far away for me!"

Gu Zheng smiled, and then started to process the auxiliary ingredients, roasting what should be roasted, roasting what should be roasted, and steaming what should be steamed.

The so-called main ingredient does not refer to the one that occupies the most weight in a dish. The so-called excipients usually have different levels of importance.

In addition to the main ingredients, the meat of long-tongued beasts is also used the most in the auxiliary ingredients for the high-grade iron armor food repair that Gu Zheng made this time. As for the other five auxiliary ingredients, they are all flowers, namely: Luming Flower, Meiji Flower Purple Fireworks, fire phoenix orchids, including the fairy dew you just got from Luqi's storage belt.

"Sir, does this food cultivation also have a very fragrant form?"

When Miao Miao asked, his stomach growled unsatisfactorily.

This will be the second high-grade food cultivation that Gu Zheng has done in one day. The high-grade fairy fruit food cultivation that he did before has already made Miaomiao greedy.

"Not all food cultivators will transform into extremely fragrant forms when they reach the highest level, but this time, because of the materials used in the armored food cultivators, I predict that there will be extremely fragrant transformations."

Gu Zheng paused, then smiled and said, "That's right, I haven't let you, a greedy little cat, eat for a whole day."

"hey-hey."

Miaomiao stuck out her tongue at Gu Zheng, intending to ask Gu Zheng to do something to give her a teething gift, but now that the occasion was wrong, she couldn't speak.

"I'll make you some omelettes first to fill your belly. When we get out of the treasure, I'll make you a delicious meal!" Gu Zheng said.

"Thank you sir!"

"You have spoiled her!"

Miao Miao's thanks and Qi Ling's complaints sounded almost at the same time, while Gu Zheng laughed: "It's okay, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers! What's more, a few fried eggs won't take long."

Light the fire, hold the pot, pour the oil, beat the eggs, and the aroma will rise.

Gu Zheng can now make omelettes faster, and his smooth and smooth appearance is even more elegant than the Tie Xian omelettes he saw when he inherited the omelette cooking skills.

Miao Miao was already eating her omelette happily, and Gu Zheng also started cooking his iron armored food.

In the past, almost all the techniques used by Gu Zheng to make food repairs were stewing. This does not mean that the method of making food repairs can only be accomplished by stewing, but it is because he is not mature enough, or he does not have the mood or time to make food repairs. Color' also becomes more prominent.

Compared with the previous cooking methods of stewing, the cooking process of this time's Iron Armored Food Cultivator is much more complicated. And Gu Zheng also decided to make some bold attempts in this food cultivation, and make some changes to the iron armor food cultivation according to his understanding of Tao.

After the tortoise shell was roasted and ground into powder, Gu Zheng put the powder together with the beautiful flower, purple flame flower, and fire phoenix orchid into the clay pot.

The Fire Controlling Technique, Water Controlling Technique, and Wood Controlling Technique were used together, and the earth veins in the clay pot gushed out. Under the full force of Gu Zheng, the ingredients wrapped around it began to roll rapidly.

Many times in the past, while the soup was cooking, Gu Zheng would often do other things, such as stir-fry or something.

But this time, Gu Zheng was just concentrating on cooking a pot of soup! There is no other reason, because this pot of soup will still take ten minutes even if Gu Zheng's current cultivation level is used with all his strength, and the remaining steps of Iron Armor Food Cultivation only take three minutes.

Eight minutes later, the aroma in the clay pot, which originally had only a faint aroma, began to become richer. The tortoise shell that had been ground into powder when viewed from the inside was finally completely integrated into the soup under the stimulation of Gu Zheng's magic.

"Sir, listening to the sound in the clay pot, it seems that there is not much soup left!"

After much hesitation, Miaomiao finally couldn't help but ask.

"The soup in the clay pot is only a part of cooking, so it can't be as big as drinking soup. There are still two minutes left. After two minutes, the soup in the clay pot will be so small that it can't even cover the ingredients. situation.”

Gu Zheng smiled slightly and stopped using the Wood Controlling Technique. As for the Fire Controlling Technique and the Water Controlling Technique, they also became softer, and the tumbling range of the soup in the clay pot suddenly became much smaller.

Two minutes later, the soup was almost ready, and Gu Zheng began the next step of cooking.

Chop the preliminarily processed long-tongued animal meat into diced meat mixed with Luminous Flowers, and then use chopsticks to quickly stir the diced meat with salt while using the Water Control Technique. When the two ingredients are still raw, the preliminary process is completed. fusion.

Put oil in the pot. After the oil was hot, Gu Zheng put the diced meat into the pot and stir-fried. The alluring aroma reached a small peak at this time. Meow Meow, who had already finished the fried eggs, couldn't help but swallow again. Drooling.

"It's a pity that there aren't many ingredients, otherwise I could make one for you." Gu Zheng said with a smile.

The main ingredients for making armored food are very scarce. Even though Gu Zheng already has a lot of ordinary and medium-level ingredients, if he hadn't obtained Lu Qi's tortoise shell today, the armored food he could cook would still be of low quality.

As a demon cultivator, Miao Miao's own body is also very strong, and the low-grade iron-armored food cultivator without permanent enhancement really has little effect on her.

"It's okay, sir, just eat."

Miao Miao stuck out her tongue, tried hard to take her eyes away from the pot, and turned her back to stop watching Gu Zheng cooking.

The diced meat in the pot has been fried. Gu Zheng took it out and put it on a plate. He put the rinsed Xianlu Youtan on top, poured all the almost dry soup in the clay pot into the plate, and finally The lid was placed on the plate and the magic was performed again.

Hearing the sound of Gu Zheng taking the food out of the pot, Miao Miao, who had just turned around, couldn't help but turn around again and looked curiously at what Gu Zheng would do next.

Under the invisible lid, the original stir-fried diced pork and Xianlu Youtan were absorbing the soup crazily, and were changing their original randomly placed postures. They were either taking shape or glowing with new colors.

During this process, the fragrance became unprecedentedly rich and charming, and even Gu Zheng couldn't help but take a few deep sniffs.

The time from putting the lid on the plate to opening the lid is less than thirty seconds.

"Wow!"

The moment the lid was lifted, Meow Meow couldn't help but exclaim.

First of all, because the fragrance is so charming, Meow Meow has forgotten about the extremely fragrant transformation. After the lid was opened, Miao Miao discovered that the extremely fragrant form that she had forgotten had actually appeared inside the lid!

Secondly, this time the Iron Armor Food Cultivation, in terms of ‘color’, was simply brilliant, Miaomiao felt that she had never seen such beautiful food!

"Sir, this, this,"

Miao Miao's eyes widened, but she couldn't find the right words to describe this food cultivator.

"It looks like a painting, but not a painting, right?" Gu Zheng smiled.

"Yes, yes! That's what it feels like!"

There were little stars in Miao Miao's eyes. Even though this armored food cultivator had no share in her, it didn't stop her from feeling like she couldn't bear to eat her chopsticks.

The diced meat turned into the shape of two hills under the influence of the magic of "gathering sand to form a tower", and because the diced meat was mixed with luminous flowers, there was a faint light emitting from the two hills. Although there is very little clear soup, it flows through the middle of the two hills like a river.

The beautiful flower, purple flame flower and fire phoenix orchid originally used to make soup were not boiled in the soup. They not only retained their previous shapes, but also burst out after absorbing some of each other's essence and the tortoise shell essence. More vivid colors than before. They were just scattered in the open space on the plate, contrasting with the mountains and rivers.

The fairy dew you added last is blooming on the top of the hill. After absorbing the essence of many ingredients, its original pure white color becomes a little crystal clear and a little clear, and some stars attached to it light up. The light also makes it more ethereal.

The most wonderful thing about this top-grade iron-clad dish is the little long-tongued beast that is transformed into a "extremely fragrant" form. Like a pangolin, it forms a ball, sometimes rolling on the plate, and sometimes crossing the mountain. The steps look so lifelike.

"You put a lot of thought into this dish!"

Looking inside, Qi Ling's white and tender little hands patted her, and she applauded Gu Zheng with a proud smile on her face.

"Although I knew that the effect of the modeling would be good, the final 'extremely fragrant shape' turned out to be so vivid, which was beyond my expectation." Gu Zheng said sincerely.

Among the methods of iron armor food cultivation passed down by Tiexian, the cooking steps of high-grade iron armor food cultivation are also more complicated, but the final shape after coming out of the pot will look like ordinary stir-fry dishes, rather than the ancient and modern portraits. painting'.

Due to the fact that his understanding of Tao is not as deep as that of Tiexian, and the ingredients are hard to come by, Gu Zheng is not allowed to follow his own ideas! Gu Zheng can only add a little creativity of his own on the basis of the original food cultivation method to make the 'fragrance' look more perfect.

In the original food cultivation method, if meat is used as an ingredient, the meat should be cut into shreds. As for the remaining five exotic flowers, according to their own characteristics, the beauty flower, purple flame flower, and fire phoenix orchid must be compared with The turtle shell powder is used to make the soup. As for the remaining Luminous Flowers, they need to be broken into petals and stir-fried with the shredded meat. The final fairy dew should be simmered in the soup.

From the perspective of cooking methods, the changes made by Gu Zheng are not big, but in fact this is already a very big change! The food cultivation method passed down by Tiexian contains the Tao. A slight change may deviate from the original effect. This is a problem Gu Zheng encountered when he first tried to change it after he understood the Tao of diet.

Some time has passed since he understood the Tao, and Gu Zheng's understanding of the Tao is deeper than before. While he wants to make changes, he also knows that he can indeed make some changes!

However, what changes and improves is not the effect, but the 'color' of this armored food cultivator.

In order for Gu Zheng to achieve the 'color' he wanted while still maintaining the effect that a top-grade iron-armored food repairer should have, he spent a lot of effort and thought on cooking, and finally achieved it. The color change effect remains unchanged'.

Gu Zheng's "color change and effect remain unchanged" may sound useless, but in fact it is the application and understanding of Tao that is changing, and it is actually reflected! This is also the reason why the harsh weapon spirit will applaud him.

"Actually, the food cultivation method passed down by Master Tiexian leaves room for change, and this room can only be discovered or perfected when your realm reaches a certain level."

"The iron armor food repair you did this time is very good. I believe you also discovered something I didn't tell you before."

"Whether it is a dish or a food practice, there is a saying of 'color, aroma, and flavor.' And Tao is everywhere, so naturally it is not limited to taste, or in effect."

"You have already seen the way of fragrance, and now you have a deeper understanding of it. The 'Extreme Fragrance Transformation' is the manifestation of the way of fragrance."

"You must have understood the presentation of the Tao of 'color' after comprehending the Tao of food and drink, but today is the first time you have done it!"

"It is precisely because the 'color' has reached the extreme and is full of Tao, which has affected the 'fragrance', making the original 'extreme fragrance into form' possess advanced agility, and also making the original taste have a breakthrough. ! Therefore, the high-quality iron armor food cultivation method you made can achieve better results than the method taught to you by Master Tiexian!"

"I believe that after this Iron Armor Food Cultivation production, you will have a deeper understanding of the way of food and drink."

"To be honest, you were able to make such a breakthrough in the food cultivation method left by Lord Tie Xian, much earlier than I expected. I thought that by the time you could achieve this step, your realm would have already reached a certain level. Dajinxian!"

Qi Ling said a lot, and when she looked at Gu Zheng inwardly, her pretty face almost burst into laughter.

"Yes! Tao generates one, creates two, two creates three, and three creates all things. The color, fragrance, and flavor influence each other, and finally have an effect beyond the original. Isn't this not Tao?" Gu Zheng murmured.

"Ahem."

Looking inside, Qi Ling cleared his throat, and the expression on his face became solemn.

"Contribute to the successors of Tiexian and complete the growth mission - a breakthrough in food cultivation!"

"Reward: two hundred medium-level Xianyuan Pills."

"Reward: One Earth Spirit Pill."

"Reward: ten catties of cloud-patterned red copper and twenty catties of black jade silver."

"Reward: three kilograms of earth spirit sand, two pieces of Xuanyin stone, and one piece of phoenix blood wood."

After Qi Ling finished speaking, Gu Zheng's eyes were still wide open, and he couldn't help but said angrily: "You're stupid, aren't you? I don't want these rewards, but I want to take them back!"

"Yes, yes, who said I don't want it anymore!" Gu Zheng laughed: "It's just that I didn't expect that this trouble-free attempt would actually yield such additional gains!"

Gu Zheng is really happy, and the harvest this time is really great.

Two hundred medium-level Xianyuan Pills, this reward is very generous, enough to cook two Danyuan Food Cultivators!

"Item Spirit, when I advanced to become an Immortal Cultivator, you only rewarded me with a hundred medium-level Immortal Essence Pills, and now you have given me two hundred. You are so kind!"

Looking at the reward happily, Gu Zheng never forgets to praise the spirit of the weapon.

"It's not my fault. This is something that Lord Tiexian is destined to die for! You can make a breakthrough in the food cultivation method left by Lord Tiexian. In a sense, this is more rare than becoming an immortal cultivator."

The weapon spirit was a little embarrassed, and with a red face, she spoke again: "What I did for you was just to replace some less useful rewards with the materials you are in urgent need of."

"With these ten kilograms of cloud-patterned red copper and twenty kilograms of black jade and silver, I have collected all the materials to repair the Chaos Tower, except for the blood maple tree core and golden spirit energy!" Gu Zheng said with emotion.

Although you can get enough cloud-patterned red copper and black jade silver from the weapon spirit by completing tasks sooner or later, it is still worth being happy to get them all at once now.

"By the way, what are the other three materials as rewards?" Gu Zheng asked again.

"The other nine floors of the Chaos Tower have been confirmed to be in the Black Sky Snail Sect. After the matter of the Sky Snail Cave is over, you will go to retrieve the nine-story tower body. And the new nine-story tower body will definitely need to be repaired. According to my guess, Earth Spirit Sand, Xuanyin Stone, and Phoenix Blood Wood will all be the materials used for repair. I will reward you with them in advance!" The weapon spirit laughed.

"So good!"

Gu Zheng laughed and wanted to touch the weapon spirit's hair, but unfortunately he couldn't. The spirit of the weapon glared at him fiercely and said with a stern face: "Hurry up and finish reading the rewards and eat your food cultivation!"

"It's okay, it won't take much time, it's okay to eat later!"

Gu Zheng smiled and took out the fragrant earth spirit pill from the prehistoric space: "This small pill is a good thing that can upgrade the earth control art to a high level!"

"Yes! If you hadn't completed the test of 'breakthrough in food cultivation', it would not be easy to get the earth spirit pill." The spirit of the weapon smiled.
