Chapter 596 Return to Emei
"This trip to Bloodtide Island, I harvested a lot of magic weapons. See if you can use these things."
Gu Zheng took out several magic weapons, including the Ten Thousand Ghost Banners of the Corpse Demon Ancestor.
"Top magic weapon!"
Lian Yuxin's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the corpse demon ancestor's Ten Thousand Ghost Flags.
However, Lian Yuxin's eyes showed disappointment immediately: "It's a pity that it is a top-level magic weapon that is very dangerous. If it is not very dangerous, it can be modified. Now that the master has given it to me, I can only use it as a weapon." It turned into some weapon refining materials.”
"It's okay to turn it into a weapon refining material, at least it's better than what it is now." Gu Zheng said.
"Master, isn't it a pity to do this? You are a person who wants to ascend to the ancient world. If you carry such a magic weapon with you, it will buy you many resources when you arrive in the ancient world!" Lian Yuxin road.
"Whether it is on the earth or in the ancient world, a dangerous weapon like the Ten Thousand Ghost Banners will never be spread properly if it passes through my hands. I don't care what its value is."
Use soul refining to increase the power of the equipment, and it will turn into thousands of living souls! To Gu Zheng, destroying something like this is more valuable than letting it exist.
"Okay, then I'll turn it into a pile of weapon refining materials." Lian Yu thought.
"This sword, see if you can repair it."
Gu Zheng took out Blood Soul's ancient pine-patterned sword again.
"Another top-notch fairy weapon!"
Lian Yuxin's eyes widened, and then she took a look at the ancient sword with pine patterns and said, "I understand what the leader means. The leader wants me to repair the wounds caused by the master's death and keep it." The grade of a top-notch immortal weapon.”
"Yes, that's what it means." Gu Zheng said.
"Repair its wounds and still maintain its grade. Maybe some second-grade weapon masters can do it, but I can't do it yet. I'm really ashamed!" Lian Yuxin said embarrassedly.
"Okay! If that's the case, then I can only take it with me first."
Gu Zheng was a little regretful. After all, this magical weapon could be used to deal with divine thoughts, and it could also achieve some miraculous effects when used at certain special times.
Having finished talking about the immortal artifact, Gu Zheng took out the stone balls harvested in the underground space.
When Gu Zheng took out the stone ball, Lian Yuxin exclaimed: "This is a polar ice slurry ball!"
"I want you to peel off the surface of this sphere, and then I need the polar ice slurry inside." Gu Zheng said.
"Master, can you share some of the polar ice slurry with me?" Lian Yuxin looked at Gu Zheng and said pitifully.
"Don't give it to her!"
Gu Zheng was about to agree to Lian Yuxin, but who would have thought that the voice of Qi Ling sounded in his mind.
While asking the reason for the spirit in his mind, Gu Zheng asked Lian Yuxin: "What do you want the polar ice slurry for?"
Gu Zheng had never seen polar ice slurry before. He had only heard from Qi Ling that polar ice slurry could be used to brew fairy wine.
"When you see the polar ice slurry, you will know why I didn't let you give it to her." Qi Ling answered Gu Zheng.
"I want polar ice slurry, so of course it will be useful!"
Lian Yuxin's tone of voice was a little coquettish.
Looking at Lian Yuxin's slightly red cheeks, and recalling the 'Female Immortal Food Cultivation' created by her, Gu Zheng also guessed that she wanted polar ice slurry, which should be something related to women.
"Let's wait and see how much it is!"
Gu Zheng did not agree immediately.
"With such a big ball, there must be a lot inside."
Lian Yuxin shook the polar ice slurry ball in her arms, and there was a sound of water inside.
Normally, Gu Zheng would not ask for anything from Gu Zheng, but Gu Zheng would always give it to him. This time he asked Gu Zheng for something, but Gu Zheng did not give an immediate reply. This made Lian Yuxin think that the polar ice slurry might be very important to Gu Zheng. , so I didn’t dare to say anything more.
Holding a small machete, Lian Yuxin quickly peeled off the skin of the polar ice slurry ball like peeling a coconut.
Without the gray and rough skin, the polar ice slurry ball in Lian Yuxin's hand looked like a round ruby. However, this wave of rubies is hollow, and there is a lot of polar ice slurry inside that is as colored as mercury.
Lian Yuxin found a clean container, and then drew a fairy formation on the polar ice slurry ball. She hugged the polar ice slurry ball with both hands and broke it as if beating an egg. The shell suddenly cracked, and the sticky inside was A bowl of polar ice slurry immediately flowed.
An extreme cold emanated from the polar ice slurry, and everything around him was quickly covered with a layer of white frost.
After seeing the polar ice slurry, Gu Zheng also knew why the weapon spirit said that he understood it after seeing it.
"Although this is a very precious resource, those who can see it should have a share! I still decided to give her some, but the method she chooses depends on her."
Gu Zheng smiled at Qi Ling, but Qi Ling shrugged indifferently: "It's your thing anyway, I'm just afraid that if you agree rashly, you'll end up giving away too much."
Without saying anything else to the weapon spirit, Gu Zheng looked at Lian Yu and said in his heart: "The polar ice slurry has wonderful effects. Do you want me to share some with you? Or do you want me to make food for you to eat?"
The polar ice slurry can make three servings of food and a little more. If Lian Yuxin chooses to ask Gu Zheng to give her some, then Gu Zheng will only give her the extra bit, which she must use to refine some elixirs or something. That's enough. If she chooses to have a meal, Gu Zheng will keep the extra money.
"Master, what kind of food cultivation do you want to do?" Lian Yuxin's eyes lit up.
"Keep it secret." Gu Zheng smiled.
"Haha! So it's a multiple choice question. Then I'll choose the food cultivation that the master is doing!"
Lian Yuxin smiled slyly, and then asked: "Master, can you tell me now what kind of food cultivation you want to do?"
"I want to do ice spirit food cultivation."
When the ice spirit food cultivation reaches the middle level, the body will be transformed by the food cultivation, and the resistance to the power of ice and cold will be permanently improved. The higher the level, the higher the resistance.
A long time ago, Gu Zheng worked as a middle-level ice spirit food cultivation in Tianshan. Although he has obtained a lot of ingredients with ice and cold properties since then, they cannot be used to cook top-level ice spirit food cultivation. The ingredients of polar ice slurry are of excellent quality, and they are the better ones among the excellent grades. It is suitable to use it to make top-level ice spirit food cultivation.
"What is ice spirit food cultivation?"
Lian Yuxin's curiosity was answered by Gu Zheng, and after listening to Gu Zheng's answer, Lian Yuxin was naturally proud of her wise choice.
The amount of polar ice slurry can make three parts of ice spirit food. Since Lian Yuxin was lucky enough to be present, Gu Zheng took one portion for himself, gave one portion to Lian Yuxin, and prepared to give the remaining portion to Ouyang Hai.
As the great elder of Emei, Ouyang Hai's contribution to the entire Emei is naturally the greatest, and this portion of top-grade ice spirit food should also be enjoyed by him.
"You should contact Ouyang Hai now and ask him to come and take ice spirit food."
Gu Zheng told Lian Yuxin the general route of the Righteous Alliance's demon-slaying this time, and Lian Yuxin immediately set off. For a cultivator like Lian Yuxin, as long as he knows the general route, it is still easy to find Ouyang Hai.
Lian Yuxin went to find Ouyang Hai, and Gu Zheng also wandered around Wufeng Island. He went to the "Ancient Fairy Temple" and then went to the Fairy Field. After chatting with the islanders for a while, he returned to his residence to practice.
In the evening, Lian Yuxin brought Ouyang Hai to Wufeng Island.
Gu Zheng chatted with Ouyang Hai for a while and asked about the progress of the "Demon Suppression Operation" in the past few days.
Gu Zheng learned from Ouyang Hai that three demon cultivators who participated in the "Blood Tide Island Incident" had been killed by the righteous people, and the others disappeared.
This "Demon Suppression Operation" was originally to establish prestige and convey a message that evil cannot defeat good, so it will not last too long. According to Ouyang Hai, after he returns, it will take at most three days for the "Demon Suppression Operation" to end.
After a brief chat, Gu Zheng asked the two to wait for a while, and he went to prepare the ice spirit food.
There are a total of six ingredients needed to cook this ice spirit food, which are: polar ice slurry, frozen soil kudzu root, ant sugar, golden skin peanuts, ice heart fruit, and frost fruit.
In addition to the polar ice slurry, the other ingredients are all of medium quality. They are either cold in nature or can also increase the effect of the cold attribute.
After Gu Zheng crushed the frozen soil kudzu root, he placed it on the filter cloth and repeatedly rinsed and filtered it with water, and then let the filtered water clarify. He then began to process the next ingredient.
Gu Zheng had obtained some golden skin peanuts in Shuxu before, and later opened a fairy kitchen shop and obtained a lot from visitors from the prehistoric world. This medium-level ingredient is a best-seller in the prehistoric world. Even if the cultivators don't have too many appetites, there is basically no cultivator who doesn't drink! When they drink, the most common high-end side dishes are fried golden skin peanuts.
Golden skin peanuts are different from ordinary peanuts. The outer coat of ordinary peanuts is red and has a slightly bitter taste, while the outer coat of golden skin peanuts is golden yellow. Not only does it not have a bitter taste, but it has a different fragrance.
Gu Zheng fried the golden skin peanuts in an oil pan until the skin turned purple-gold and then served them out. The whole room was filled with a fragrance similar to fried peanuts.
Bingxin Fruit and Hanshuang Fruit are both dried fruits. The former is eaten with the kernel, and the latter is eaten with the pulp.
The kernel of the Bingxin fruit is as white as jade, and the taste has a little milky aroma. Gu Zheng slowly roasted the kernel with the "Benming True Fire", and the fragrant aroma immediately spread.
While the baked Bingxin fruit was cooling down, Gu Zheng put some "Snowy Plum Wine" into the purple-red flesh of the Frost Fruit and steamed it.
At this time, the filtered frozen soil kudzu root water had already become clear. Gu Zheng removed the kudzu root powder that had settled inside, and then dried the kudzu root powder with the "Benming True Fire". The originally grayish-white frozen soil kudzu root powder also turned into a beautiful beige color.
With polar ice slurry and kudzu root powder, a big dough appeared in Gu Zheng's hand after a while. After kneading the dough several times, Gu Zheng put it aside.
The cooled golden skin peanuts and Bingxin fruit were ground into powder by Gu Zheng, and then he chopped the steamed frost fruit into grains.
After the solid ant sugar was boiled into syrup, Gu Zheng put the golden skin peanut powder, ice heart fruit powder, and frost fruit into it and stirred it evenly, then put it in a square container.
The "life true water" in the body vibrated, and the icy air was sprayed on the stuffing by Gu Zheng. After the stuffing solidified when it was cold, Gu Zheng cut it into small cubes.
"What a fragrant and sweet taste!"
Thinking about the ice spirit food cultivation, Lian Yuxin was in no mood to chat with Ouyang Hai, so she left Ouyang Hai there and came to see how Gu Zheng was doing.
"Master, what are you doing? Are you going to make glutinous rice balls?"
Lian Yuxin widened her eyes and saw that the stuffing and kudzu root powder quickly turned into balls in Gu Zheng's hands. What else could this not be glutinous rice balls?
"You can say it's glutinous rice balls, but it's glutinous rice balls that can increase ice resistance."
Gu Zheng smiled and continued chatting while wrapped in kudzu powder.
"Hey, let's not talk about it. My favorite thing to eat since I was little is glutinous rice balls."
Lian Yuxin smiled stupidly as she recalled it, and even a trace of drool appeared at the corner of her mouth unconsciously.
In the hands of Gu Zheng, food cultivation has long been eclectic. It is a kind of food with medicinal effects, and there are naturally many ways it can be transformed.
The water in the pot has been boiled, and the three-point ice spiritual food repair has been wrapped. After Gu Zheng put it into the pot, he used the fire control technique to activate the fire. In almost four breaths, the rice cake that originally sank to the bottom of the pot The colored ball floated up.
After another moment, a sweet smell began to emerge from the pot, and it became increasingly fragrant.
"Master, if I weren't watching you make it and the pot smelled like this, I would have definitely wondered if you had cooked these delicious glutinous rice balls."
As Lian Yuxin sighed, the round beige balls had come out of the pot, and the three bowls containing them were covered with thick white mist.
"It's time to serve!"
Lian Yuxin made a cheerful voice and placed three bowls of ice spiritual food on the dining table.
"Hey, it's a bowl instead of a plate?"
Ouyang Hai made a curious sound.
Waiting for Jixiang to transform is a process of enjoyment. During this process, no matter Ouyang Hai, any guest who comes to Jixiang Xiaozhu to eat will not use any means to peek in advance. What is the delicious food under the white mist? It seemed that they all enjoyed this short waiting process.
The three bowls of ice spiritual food have transformed into extremely fragrant forms one after another, and their extremely fragrant forms have all come to an end. They are all a smart and colorful flying ant, dancing gracefully around a beige ball with a rolling outer surface.
"This, this really looks like glutinous rice balls!"
Having seen clearly what was in the bowl, even Ouyang Hai made a sound of disbelief. At this time, he finally understood why the Ice Spirit Food Cult was served in a bowl this time.
Gu Zheng smiled, and without saying anything else, he just motioned for the two of them to use their chopsticks.
"Ugh!"
Picking up a glutinous rice ball and putting it into his mouth, Lian Yuxin was immediately surprised and even his eyes widened.
Thinking of this ice spiritual food cultivation as glutinous rice balls, not only Lian Yuxin was prepared for the hot taste, but also Ouyang Hai.
However, piping hot is just the appearance of Bing Ling Shi Xiu. When you bite through its skin, the sweet filling inside turns out to have a cold texture. If Lian Yuxin and Ouyang Hai were just ordinary people, then this alternating hot and cold taste would , it will definitely give them toothache.
"So sweet!"
Although the alternation of hot and cold was an unexpected taste, the taste of ice spiritual food still made Lian Yuxin very intoxicated.
“It’s fragrant, sweet, and so delicious. This is the best dessert I’ve ever tasted!”
In fact, not only Lian Yuxin was intoxicated, but also Ouyang Hai.
Gu Zheng doesn't make sweets very much, and Ouyang Hai doesn't like sweets either. The ice spiritual food training this time made him feel this way, which shows how delicious it is.
Gu Zheng didn't make a sound, he was just enjoying the ice spiritual food repair very intoxicatedly, savoring the alternating hot and cold taste, sweet and glutinous taste.
Soon, there was only an empty bowl left in front of the three of them, and they all quietly felt the changes in their bodies brought about by the Ice Spiritual Food Cultivation.
After a while, Gu Zheng was the first to finish absorbing, followed closely by Ouyang Hai and Lian Yuxin.
"I don't feel much about it. After all, it increases resistance. Do you two want to try the effect now?"
"OK!"
After Lian Yuxin and Ouyang Hai applauded Gu Zheng's proposal, Gu Zheng attacked each of them with extreme cold power.
In order to give the two of them a better comparison, Gu Zheng attacked them with the same extreme cold power before doing the Ice Spiritual Food Cultivation, so that they could have a comparison.
"good!"
“That’s great!”
After receiving the attack from the extreme cold power, Lian Yuxin and Ouyang Hai applauded.
Before taking the high-grade ice spiritual food cultivation, Ouyang Hai felt very uncomfortable when faced with the extremely cold power spurted from Gu Zheng's hand. As for Lian Yuxin, his teeth were chattering with the cold. But now, facing the same extreme cold force as Gu Zheng, the two people's reactions were not much different from encountering a gust of cold wind.
As for Gu Zheng, he had already done a simple test when Bing Ling Shi Xiu was still making changes to their bodies.
The thing Gu Zheng used to test was polar ice slurry. When he first got the polar ice slurry ball, Gu Zheng could feel an uncomfortable coldness through the stone skin outside. Later, when Lian Yuxin took out the polar ice slurry, patches of frost flowers grew around it, and when Gu Zheng used it to knead the frozen kudzu powder, his hands were a little numb from the cold!
However, when Gu Zheng conducted another test with polar ice slurry, he no longer felt any coldness while holding the container in which it was stored.
Having eaten the Ice Spirit Food Cultivator, Gu Zheng and Ouyang Hai left Wufeng Island together. Ouyang Hai continued to participate in the 'Operation Demon Swallowing', while Gu Zheng returned to Emei.
After returning to Emei, Gu Zheng met Wuyouwusuou and the others and told them what happened on Blood Tide Island.
In fact, there is no need for Gu Zheng to talk about it. Wuyou and Wuyou also know a lot about the things on Blood Tide Island. After all, the most discussed thing in the entire cultivation world is still the battle between good and evil on Blood Tide Island regarding the general trend of the world.
After the conversation with Wuyou and Wuyou ended, Emei also welcomed a happy event, that is, Chen Yue came as promised.
In the Blood Tide Forbidden Zone, the angry man first saved Chen Yue once, and then Gu Zheng saved Chen Yue again. Chen Yue also said at the time that if everyone survived in the end, he would join Emei.
After the Blood Tide Island incident ended, Gu Zheng went to Ziyan Island, and Chen Yue still had some things to deal with, so they agreed on a time for him to join.
