Chapter 542 Promotion

The reason why Bitao Island has this name is that there are many peach trees on the island. These peach trees bear fruit all year round, and they are the main food for the islanders.

In addition to peach trees, there are many medicinal herbs on the island, and these medicinal herbs were planted by the original cultivators.

Medicine and food have the same origin. The vast majority of medicinal herbs can also be used as food. Among them, there are countless ordinary-grade food ingredients, and there are also many medium-quality food ingredients. This is simply a treasure for Gu Zheng to find.

If we only talk about the harvest of ordinary and medium-grade food ingredients, the treasures of Kongkongmen and Tianluoku combined are not as many as those on Bitao Island.

There are two reasons why there are so many resources on Bitao.

The first reason: Bitao Island is a place of great spiritual beauty. Although excellent-grade resources can no longer grow in the Dharma Ending Age, medium-quality resources can still grow.

The second reason: Bitao Island has been around for thousands of years, and no cultivators or immortals have visited it. The islanders hardly understand the value of resources, so there is naturally no problem of consumption.

Gu Zheng already had a lot of ordinary quality ingredients, and he was not short of medium quality ingredients, so he only picked some medium-quality ingredients that were still growing on the island and took them away, and let the others continue to grow. Anyway, they would not be used for a while, and now the immortal essence in the air was also recovering. This was a place with beautiful scenery. If the ingredients grew for a longer period of time, they could also increase their medicinal effects.

After a tour of Bitao Island, Gu Zheng brought Lian Yuxin to the cave on the mountain.

There was a restriction on the door of the cave, but Gu Zheng had seen this kind of restriction before, so it was easy for the two of them to enter.

The layout of the cave was the same as what he had seen on Zhaoxia Island before, and there were also stone chambers for various purposes.

As before, Gu Zheng first looked at the practice room.

There was a skeleton in the practice room, and it should be the original owner of Bitao Island.

I heard from the old man and the old woman that the owner of Bitao Island had been in seclusion since he came back from being injured. It seems that this person should have been seriously injured and eventually died in this practice room.

There were some decorations and pendants in the training room, which were useless to Gu Zheng, but Lian Yuxin liked them, so Gu Zheng let her take them.

There was a storage belt next to the skeleton, which was the highlight!

Gu Zheng recognized the storage belt as his master, and poured out a lot of things from it, including training resources, refining resources, and two low-level immortal artifacts.

The refining resources still did not have what Gu Zheng urgently needed to repair the Chaos Tower, but some resources were of high quality and might be used to repair the Chaos Tower in the future.

Gu Zheng took the refining resources that he felt might be useful, and gave the rest to Lian Yuxin.

Of the two low-level immortal artifacts, the one that was his natal immortal artifact was already damaged, and Lian Yuxin also felt that it was not worth repairing, so it could only be used to repair the Chaos Tower.

The other immortal artifact was not of much use to cultivators like Gu Zheng and Lian Yuxin, so Gu Zheng put it away and prepared to put it in the treasure house after returning to Emei, so that the senior members of the sect could reward it to the disciples.

Among the cultivation resources, those that can be used as food materials have one excellent grade and more than 20 medium-grade ones. Lian Yuxin liked some medicinal materials, so Gu Zheng gave them to her.

After looking at the cultivation room, Gu Zheng and Lian Yuxin found a set of alchemy equipment in the alchemy room. This set of alchemy equipment is of better quality than the one in Emei Sect, so Gu Zheng put it in his storage belt and sent it back to Emei when the time comes.

There was only one stone chamber left, and Lian Yuxin couldn't help but ask curiously: "Master, why did you put this remaining stone chamber last to enter?"

There are four stone chambers symmetrically in pairs. This last stone chamber, if counted from the entrance of the cave, is the last one on the left. It stands to reason that when Gu Zheng came out of the cultivation room, this stone chamber should be the second one to enter, even if it is not the first one, but Gu Zheng chose the farthest one and put it at the last one.

"Because I'm excited! For me, this is the real highlight!" Gu Zheng said.

"I don't understand." Lian Yuxin shook her head blankly.

"Have you seen a high-level Juyuan formation?" Gu Zheng asked.

"No."

Lian Yuxin shook her head. Although she was a second-grade weapon refining master from the prehistoric world, she had never seen a high-level Juyuan formation.

After all, it was very difficult to set up a high-level Juyuan formation. In addition to understanding the way of the immortal formation and being able to draw the formation pattern, some special items were needed to set up a high-level Juyuan formation. Moreover, the special items required for setting up the formation could not be reused, so even in the prehistoric world, high-level Juyuan formations were still rare.

"I sometimes use Juyuan formations when refining weapons, but low-level Juyuan formations are enough. High-level Juyuan formations are generally only available in larger sects or families." Lian Yuxin said again.

Gu Zheng nodded and said, "I have seen three high-level Juyuan formations containing huge amounts of immortal essence before, so I have a special feeling for this kind of Juyuan formation containing huge amounts of immortal essence. Do you understand why I am excited?"

Lian Yuxin's eyes widened: "Master, are you saying that there is a Juyuan formation here, and it also contains huge amounts of immortal essence?"

Lian Yuxin felt her heart beating fast. She had seen how powerful food cultivation was. If there was a Juyuan formation containing huge amounts of immortal essence here, she really couldn't imagine how powerful the effect of Gu Zheng's food cultivation could be.

"Yes."

Gu Zheng smiled slightly and began to break the restrictions on the door.

The stone door opened, and Gu Zheng saw the advanced Yuan Gathering Formation shining slightly on the ground.

"Master, you said he is just one person, why does he need to build a high-level Yuan Gathering Formation?" Lian Yuxin asked confused.

"Two possibilities. The first possibility is that the special items for arranging high-level Yuan Yuan Arrays have no other use except for arranging high-level Yuan Yuan Arrays. Anyway, he just happened to have them in his hands, so he arranged such a high-level Yuan Yuan Array. The second possibility is that he wants to use the rich immortal essence in the advanced Yuan Gathering Formation to speed up the growth of the medicinal materials he planted on the island."

Gu Zheng paused for a moment, then smiled and said: "No matter what the possibility is, anyway, this Yuan Gathering Formation is full of immortal energy and has not been used yet, which is an advantage for me."

"A high-level Yuan Gathering Formation full of immortal energy. I'm really looking forward to how much cultivation can be improved by the leader's food cultivation!" Lian Yuxin said happily.

"Then just wait and see! After I take the food repair, you can open the Yuan Gathering Formation."

Gu Zheng told Lian Yuxin and immediately took out the ingredients for cooking this meal from the ancient space.

"Zhang, Zhang, are all the things you took out needed for this cooking practice?" Lian Yuxin stuttered a little.

"Yes, in order not to waste the immortal energy in this Yuan Gathering Formation, the level of food cultivator must be high."

As he spoke, Gu Zheng quickly processed the ingredients.

"My dear! What kind of food cultivation is this? What kind of materials are used! There are a hundred medium-quality Xianyuan Pills in one hand, and there is even a dragon horn! As for the other things "Although I don't know how to classify the ingredients, they are all rare things!" Lian Yuxin murmured to herself.

The food that Gu Zheng is going to cook this time is Danyuan Food. In addition to a hundred medium-level Immortal Yuan Pills, the ingredients used are a dragon horn, a high-grade ingredient, and nine kinds of fine-level ingredients.

The nine kinds of high-quality ingredients are: Bistem Shixiang, White Jade Spirit Root, Sunset Flower, Tianlian Leaves, Phoenix Eagle Dried Meat, Sixiang Fruit, Xianyun Pine Powder, Purple Gold Ganoderma lucidum, and Luohuamu.

The dragon's horn is calcined with the 'Original Fire' and then ground into powder.

Soak Bijiushixiang and Fengying dried meat in warm water.

Decoction made from fallen flowers and pine powder from Xianyun pine.

Cut the white jade root into cubes and steam it in a basket.

The Purple Gold Ganoderma is roasted with the ‘original fire’ and ground into powder as well.

After the oil-rich Sixiang fruit is squeezed out, the oil is set aside. The pulp is put into the soup made from Luohua wood and Xianyun pine powder, and continues to simmer for two minutes. Then Gu Zheng adds Longjiao powder and a hundred Xianyuan Dan. Put it in and simmer over low heat. Immediately, rich fairy essence floats out of the pot, gathering together but not dissipating.

This time, Gu Zheng plans to use the ‘reverse way’ to practice Danyuan Food.

Moreover, due to his deepening understanding of the way of eating, Gu Zheng's approach to food cultivation has become more varied, and more and more delicious, delicious, and delicious.

All the ingredients have been processed, and Sixiang fruit oil is put into the hot pot, and a strange phenomenon suddenly fills the air.

"What a unique fragrance! It makes me want to take a sip of fruit oil and try it!"

Lian Yuxin on the side swallowed her saliva and flapped her nostrils from time to time to take a deep sniff.

The scent of Sixiang fruit oil is indeed unique. It is also a high-quality ingredient. The oil has a papaya-like fragrance. It is really difficult to imagine it unless you smell it yourself.

After Gu Zheng became an immortal cultivator, there were more places in the prehistoric space that could improve the quality of food ingredients. The peanut oil he commonly used had already been upgraded to medium quality.

In fact, it is enough to use medium-grade oil to cook top-grade food, but in order to pursue perfection, Gu Zheng used his only Sixiang fruit.

After the oil is at the right temperature, Gu Zheng chops the watery phoenix meat into minced meat, puts it into the pot and stir-fries it until golden brown, then adds the green stem incense, sunset flowers, and purple-gold Ganoderma lucidum powder, and continues to stir-fry.

“This smells so good!”

Lian Yuxin gulped down the saliva. The aroma in the air varied with the ingredients Gu Zheng put in. This aroma mixed from a variety of ingredients had an indescribable attraction and crazily aroused people's appetite. .

The addition of purple-gold Ganoderma lucidum powder coats the originally golden phoenix eagle meat with a layer of purple-gold color, as if it were served with sauce.

The soup is made from fallen flower tree soup, fairy cloud pine powder and Sixiang fruit pulp. The soup is slightly viscous and has a ruby ​​red color. As for the rich fairy essence floating on it before, it has also been restrained. In the soup.

"It's really amazing. If ordinary people stew these treasures like this, how can the immortal essence that floats out stay together? How can it be contained in the soup and not wasted at all? Gudong..."

Lian Yuxin's sighing voice had just landed, and she couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. In this mouthful of saliva, there was not only a desire for delicious food, but also a desire for immortality.

"This is the difference between fairy chefs and ordinary people!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly and poured the cooked soup into the fried phoenix eagle meat.

The Fire Control Technique and the Water Control Technique were used at the same time, and the soup in the pot immediately started rolling. After about another minute of frying the phoenix eagle meat, Gu Zheng put the steamed white jade spirit root dices into the soup and stewed it over low heat.

Five minutes have passed. During this period, the fragrance in the air has almost reached its peak. The fragrance is so intoxicating that it can make people intoxicated. The fragrance is so fragrant that it can transform into a mist. Obstruction of sight.

Gu Zheng took out a plate and spread the wrinkled-looking Tianlian leaves that had been simply washed with water on the plate. Then, he poured the food in the pot onto the Tianlian leaves, and performed the Wood Control Technique that he had not yet performed during this cooking process.

With the use of the Wood Control Technique, all wood-attributed ingredients undergo subtle changes, among which the change in the Heavenly Lotus Leaf is the most obvious.

The originally wrinkled Tianlian leaves, under the influence of Gu Zheng's Wood Control Technique, expanded rapidly as if they had absorbed soup, and the color miraculously changed from withered yellow to green.

However, at this moment, the food on the plate began to vibrate, jolting as if it was about to jump out of the plate! The scene was like what was on the plate was not cooked food, but live fish.

The occurrence of strange phenomena is considered normal. After all, when Gu Zheng was cooking fairy fruit food in the Tianluo Cave treasure, something abnormal happened. At that time, the food turned into a whirlwind and wanted to be thrown out of the pot.

This kind of vision is a good thing for food cultivators. It is just like the immortal cultivators who survive the tribulation. If they survive, it will be another world. If they cannot survive, all their previous efforts will be wasted.

For Gu Zheng, such a vision is not scary, after all, he has the Five Elements Immortal Technique. The Five Elements Immortal Art is used to control this kind of mutation, and the effect is still very good.

Just like when you were in the Tianluo Cave treasure, facing the strange phenomena and ancient disputes, the fairy pot kept getting higher, and some of the gold power of the gold control technique was also used in it.

The Wood Control Technique was still used, and the intensity was increased. Under the suppression of Gu Zheng, the food on the plate slowly settled down.

At this time, the color of the Tianlian leaves had become verdant, and the fragrance of the food cultivators also had a hint of the unique fragrance of lotus leaves. Only then did Gu Zheng accept the Wood Control Technique with satisfaction.

All the white mist that had condensed on the plate was absorbed into the food, causing many sparkling light spots to appear on the food.

"So beautiful!"

Women all love beauty, and when Lian Yuxin saw Shi Xiu's final form, she couldn't help but marvel.

The food has no excess soup and appears in the shape of a disk on the green lotus leaves.

The original white jade spirit root dices are soaked in ruby ​​red soup and become white and rosy. They are the basis of the disc. The diced purple-gold phoenix meat, green bispermia granules, and yellow sunset glow. The broken flowers are dotted between the white jade spirit roots, and the slightly flashing elite light spots are like dewdrops. The entire food repair looks like a lotus leaf, holding a lotus pod with shining treasure.

"Wow!"

As soon as Lian Yuxin's exclamation faded, he immediately let out another exclamation, and Ji Xiang appeared in his form.

A small red dragon flew out of the food cultivator and danced around the lotus pods vividly. It looked extremely agile.

The fragrance in the air also became very rich at this moment. The first smell was a light and elegant fragrance, and the closer smell was a rich meaty fragrance. It was really wonderful.

"Get ready to open the Yuan Gathering Formation!"

Gu Zheng gave Lian Yuxin instructions. He picked up the food, scooped it up with a spoon, put it into his mouth, closed his eyes and tasted it.

“That’s great!”

After one mouthful of food, Gu Zheng admired himself intoxicated.

The fragrant and tender white jade root has a hint of spiciness unique to purple golden ganoderma, plus the chewy texture of the phoenix eagle meat, but it is really soft and soft, and strong and strong.

After swallowing the spicy food, Xiu Xiu immediately turned into pure immortal energy and rushed towards Gu Zheng's immortal power ball.

No longer able to taste it carefully, Gu Zheng hurriedly ate the alchemy food, concentrating on controlling the absorption of the immortal energy by the fairy ball, and at the same time feeling the pores all over the body opening and turning into a vortex swallowing the immortal energy. wonderful feeling.

Lian Yuxin opened the spirit gathering array at the right time, and the surging immortal energy immediately surged towards Gu Zheng, and was devoured by him crazily without wasting any time.

Feeling Gu Zheng's crazy devouring of immortal essence, Lian Yuxin's eyes were full of envy.

However, envy was envy, so Lian Yuxin still walked outside the door and took charge of guarding. Although nothing would disturb Gu Zheng on Bitao Island, she wanted to be just in case.

"Gulu..."

Lian Yuxin's stomach protested, and the scent of the food cultivator was still reverberating in the air. This made her secretly decide that after Gu Zheng had used the food cultivator, she must let him make something delicious as a toothpaste.

The immortal energy is still so surging, and Gu Zheng's immortal power ball has reached the peak it can reach at this stage. It begins to shrink in the gleaming light. This is a compression process.

The process of shrinking is very fast. After all, the effect of food cultivation is powerful, and the immortal energy in the Yuan Gathering Formation is also very surging.

When the compressed immortal power ball grew larger again, a golden light shone on Gu Zheng's body. His Tie Immortal Technique had been promoted. It was still so greedy from the original three levels of 70%. It was shining brightly. , climbing towards another peak, from the original level of 70% to 1/3 of the fourth floor, to 80% of the fourth floor!

However, the effect of food cultivation is still there, the immortal energy in the Yuan Gathering Formation is still surging, and his immortal power ball is still getting bigger.

It has to be said that the Yuan Gathering Array on Bitao Island contains more Immortal Yuan than the one in the Tianluo Cave treasure. After all, the Yuan Gathering Array here is full of Immortal Yuan and has not been used yet, while the Immortal Yuan in the Tianluo Cave treasure has not yet been used. Yuan Zhen needs to maintain many things in the treasure.

Moreover, the effect of Danyuan Food Cultivation this time was better than that of the last Immortal Fruit Food Cultivation. In addition to the good ingredients, Gu Zheng's cooking skills also contributed a lot.

Seeing Gu Zheng's body glowing with golden light, Lian Yuxin couldn't help but get excited. She, who was following Gu Zheng, already knew Gu Zheng's true state. As someone who has experienced it, she knows how long it takes to advance from the early stage to the middle stage in the realm of returning to the virtual world, and how much resources are needed to accumulate it!

"It's too scary! A food cultivator plus a Yuan Gathering Formation, the cultivation level has been advanced and hasn't stopped yet. Is this a pace that defies heaven? The immortal chefs I've heard of are simply scum compared to the masters. Ah! What will happen if a person like the leader enters the wilderness? He will definitely be praised by everyone, right?" Looking at Gu Zheng who was still devouring the immortal essence, Lian Yuxin's beautiful eyes shone. .

Finally, the effect of food cultivation ended, and the immortal essence in the Yuan Gathering Formation had been swallowed up. Gu Zheng stood up with his eyes closed and stretched out comfortably.

"It feels so good to advance in cultivation and improve all aspects of abilities!" Gu Zheng said.

"It's pretty good, I'd be so jealous!"

Lian Yuxin gave Gu Zheng an angry look, and then said flatteringly: "Master, I almost starved to death when I saw you eating and practicing just now. Please rest for a while and can you make me something to eat."

As if to match Lian Yuxin's words, her stomach rumbled again, and she looked particularly embarrassed.

"No problem, I'll do it for you now!"

Gu Zheng laughed and took out the ingredients from the ancient space.

"Master, you'd better rest first, you have just advanced and stabilized your realm!" Lian Yuxin said hurriedly.

"It's okay, don't worry!" Gu Zheng said.

"oh."

Lian Yuxin forgot about Gu Zheng, who was concentrating on it, and couldn't help but ask: "Master, can the food cultivation just now be worth hundreds of years of cultivation?"

"Yes, but it must be coordinated with such a Yuan Gathering Formation. If it is just a simple food cultivation effect, it will not be able to achieve such an effect." Gu Zheng said.

Last time in the Tianluo Cave treasure, Gu Zheng made the top-grade immortal fruit food cultivation, combined with the Yuan Gathering Formation, the overall effect was equivalent to the five hundred years of hard training he had practiced during the era of prosperity.

This time, the high-grade alchemy food cultivation combined with the Yuan Gathering Formation produced an overall effect equivalent to that of his six hundred years of cultivation during the era of prosperity! The most critical reason for such a gap is that there is abundant immortal energy in the advanced Yuan Gathering Formation.

Now Gu Zheng's cultivation level is already 80% of the fourth level of Tiexian Jue. If you break it down a little more finely, it is almost a quarter of the way.
