Chapter 597: Holy Fruit Food Cultivation
As a cultivator in the late stage of returning to the void, it is a grand event no matter which sect he joins.
However, Emei may be an exception. Gu Zheng does not like to be too high-profile, so there is no big banquet.
However, Chen Yue's joining Emei is also known to the people of the Righteous Alliance. After all, Gu Zheng told them about this matter when they were on the Blood Tide Island.
Although there was no big banquet to entertain guests, there was still a celebration within Emei. Gu Zheng personally cooked 16 dishes and welcomed Chen Yue's joining with the existing senior leaders of Emei.
So far, there are a total of eight supreme elders in Emei, namely: the first supreme elder Ouyang Hai, the second supreme elder Du Wei, the third supreme elder Jia Si, the fourth supreme elder Wuyou, the fifth supreme elder Wuchou, the sixth supreme elder Lian Yuxin, the seventh supreme elder Linghu Fei, and the eighth supreme elder Chen Yue.
With several such supreme elders, plus Gu Zheng himself, Miao Miao, and Nu Han, the number of cultivators alone is not comparable to any other sect in the current cultivation world.
The second day after returning to the sect, Gu Zheng finally had the opportunity to enter the Chaos Tower and practice in the 'Energy Battlefield'.
The Chaos Tower is now a 31-story tower. Without the addition of a new tower body, Jiao Jiao does not need to do any repairs, and the operation of the 'Energy Battlefield' in the entire tower is also normal.
"Master, I have a different feeling recently."
After finishing the chat with Jiao Jiao, when Gu Zheng wanted to practice, Jiao Jiao's hesitant voice sounded again.
"What different feeling?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Master, I feel like I feel another part of my body." Jiao Jiao seemed a little confused.
"Ah?"
Gu Zheng was slightly surprised. A part of Jiao Jiao's body, isn't that another Chaos Tower body?
"Now that the 31-story tower body has been perfectly integrated, my strength has also increased. This feeling is unlikely to be wrong. The thing that makes me feel it should be a part of my body." Jiao Jiao said.
"Where is the thing that gave you the feeling now?" Gu Zheng asked.
"I don't know!"
Jiao Jiao paused, then continued: "The feeling was very vague at first, and slowly became clearer, but this so-called clarity is only compared to the initial feeling. As of now, this feeling cannot allow me to determine its location."
"The feeling was very vague at first, and slowly became clearer?" Qi Ling suddenly spoke.
"Yes, that's the feeling. Sister, do you know what's going on?" Jiao Jiao asked.
"Due to the destruction of the Zulong formation before, the recovery of immortal essence on Earth began to accelerate, and some cultivators in the prehistoric world began to come to Earth for refuge, and some of the original restrictions on Earth would also loosen as a result."
Gu Zheng had heard Qi Ling talk about these when she first learned about the Zulong formation. And her next guess was also related to what she just said.
"If the thing that makes you feel it is your other tower body, then it should be in some kind of restriction now, and the restriction has loosened, so that you can feel it. So, you don't have to be confused and anxious about it, just wait patiently. I believe that as time goes by, your feeling of it will become stronger and stronger, and finally you can feel its exact location." The spirit of the weapon said.
"Well, after listening to your sister, I am not so anxious. Thank you, sister!" Jiaojiao thanked the spirit of the weapon.
After finishing the conversation with Jiaojiao, Gu Zheng went to practice, and this practice lasted for three days.
The focus of Gu Zheng's practice this time was not breathing, but studying how to make a good holy fruit food.
Although Gu Zheng already had the practice of holy fruit food, and the ingredients that could be used with Hunyuan Xianguo to make holy fruit food, the appearance of holy fruit food can be regarded as opening a window for him in the way of diet, giving him the opportunity to see a deeper level of Tao. Therefore, Gu Zheng did not want to use up the Hunyuan Immortal Fruit and those ingredients in a hurry. During these three days, he used his understanding of the Tao to feel and understand these rare ingredients in order to make some progress or breakthroughs.
"What? Have you decided?"
For three days, the spirit of the weapon had not disturbed Gu Zheng. Now that she saw Gu Zheng walking out of the retreat room, she asked.
"I have decided. I will combine the methods of Master Tiexian and my own understanding of the Tao to make this holy fruit food practice."
How to do the holy fruit food practice is also something that Gu Zheng decided to make a choice before retreating.
According to the method given by Tiexian, everything will go smoothly, and the effect of the holy fruit food practice will be very powerful, but all this will be very comfortable, and Gu Zheng's own gains will not be that great.
If the method of Tiexian is combined, and Gu Zheng's own understanding of the Tao is followed, the effect of this holy fruit food practice will most likely be inferior to that of Tiexian. However, it is not completely impossible to make it. The holy fruit food practice passed down by the Tiexian is not impossible to surpass. After all, in order to train his disciples, every kind of food practice and even cooking skills are not perfect, and there is room for improvement.
"This is a trade-off. If you follow the method taught to you by Lord Tie Xian, then a holy fruit food cultivation is enough to take your cultivation level from a quarter of the fourth level to the fourth level and 90% of the eighth level! But if you learn from Master Tiexian’s approach and add your thoughts to Inside, the weakening of the effect of food cultivation directly affects the progress of your cultivation! Moreover, being able to make a holy fruit food cultivation is a great opportunity. After all, if you want to make a holy fruit food cultivation, it is not only the scarcity of the main ingredients. , even the auxiliary materials are also scarce," Qi Ling said solemnly.
"I have thought about all this, and it was precisely because the materials and opportunities were rare that I made that choice."
Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he said: "I don't know when it will be next time I can do the Holy Fruit Food Cultivation again. I would rather the cultivation progress slower than the faster progress, but It left a deep regret.”
"Gu Zheng, I believe Lord Tiexian will like your character very much, because if Lord Tiexian were you, he would make the same choice as you."
Although Qi Ling said it with a smile, there was some worry in his voice.
"Don't worry, wish me luck!"
Gu Zheng pretended to laugh lightly.
Now that he had made a decision, Gu Zheng immediately flew to the back mountain of Emei and began to prepare the holy fruit food.
The main ingredient for cooking the Holy Fruit Food Cultivator is Hunyuan Fairy Fruit. In addition, Tiexian also provides six other ingredients. They are: Purple Bodhi Seed, Dark Fragrance Duckweed, Burning Lotus, Green Jade Cyperus japonica, Fairy leaves.
During the three days of seclusion, Gu Zheng deduced countless methods of cooking the holy fruit. In the end, the cooking method chosen by Gu Zheng changed from the beginning. Among the six auxiliary ingredients given by Tiexian, Gu Zheng Another auxiliary ingredient is added, which is milk ginseng liquid with a medium food grade.
The milk ginseng was transplanted into the prehistoric space under the guidance of the weapon spirit.
After a period of cultivation, the grade of milk ginseng ingredients has reached ordinary. After further improvement in quality, its grade of ingredients has reached medium. The milk ginseng liquid produced has a milky aroma and is very suitable for making. Various desserts.
When she saw Gu Zheng taking out the milk ginseng liquid, Qi Ling couldn't help but feel excited, because Tiexian once said when giving her the holy fruit food cultivation, if you want to add supplementary ingredients to the method he taught, Then ginseng liquid is one of several suitable excipients.
Qi Ling knew all about Gu Zheng's ingredients, and among the thousands of ingredients he had, he only had milk ginseng liquid among the few suitable auxiliary ingredients mentioned by Tiexian.
Qi Ling also understood that during the three days of Gu Zheng's retreat, he must have gone through all the characteristics of all his ingredients. Being able to pick out ginseng liquid from thousands of ingredients was no accident. It was also an understanding of Tao, and it was precisely because of this understanding that he found the right ingredients! Otherwise, he will make a mistake in this first step and face counterproductive results.
While she was happy for Gu Zheng in her heart, Qi Ling was actually frightened. After all, she didn't want Gu Zheng to take risks at this time. She hoped that Gu Zheng could quickly improve his cultivation and enter the prehistoric era as soon as possible.
Moreover, there are some things that the weapon spirit cannot tell Guzheng due to the restrictions of the rules. For example, when Tiexian made her the ingredients for holy fruit food cultivation, he told her some things.
At that time, Tiexian listed many kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to Qi Ling, among which the Hunyuan Immortal Fruit was naturally included.
Tie Xian listed the treasures of heaven, materials and earth according to the yin and yang and the five elements, and gave the weapon spirit five types of accessories so that she could reward them to Gu Zheng at the appropriate opportunity in the future.
This means that Gu Zheng’s reward for completing the last active mission was very generous. In view of the fact that he had obtained the Hunyuan Immortal Fruit, Qi Ling gave him a very generous reward for the original mission and taught him the cooking method of the Holy Fruit Food Cultivator. , and also gave him the auxiliary ingredients for cooking the holy fruit.
In addition, the reward is not the end. The Holy Fruit Food Cultivation that Gu Zheng will do this time also involves a task, and the spirit of this task cannot yet tell Gu Zheng.
According to Tie Xian, the Hunyuan Fairy Fruit Fairy Fruit is a fire-attribute heavenly material and earthly treasure. This type of heavenly material and earthly treasure can only make limited changes in the auxiliary materials he provides, even if the successor adds qualified auxiliary materials. , the good changes will not be particularly big, this is still based on the premise that nothing goes wrong.
unless……
Tie Xian had said "unless" to Qi Ling at the beginning, but he did not say any more.
If you want to remind Gu Zheng, don't do anything stupid. If the milk ginseng liquid is enough, follow the steps of Lord Tiexian and there should be no problem.
"If you follow what I hope, the effectiveness of the Holy Fruit Food Cultivation will be improved, you will also have face and a sense of accomplishment, and the rare ingredients will not be wasted because of this, and you will not be disappointed because of this. If If you really want to try it, there will be no chance in the future, so why rush it?" Qi Ling secretly said.
Sometimes, some things just backfire. Qi Ling doesn't want Gu Zheng to make any more troubles, but as soon as Gu Zheng starts to deal with the ingredients, the troubles appear.
According to Tie Xian, the main ingredient of cooking is the sacred fruit of Hunyuan Immortal Fruit, which is very particular about the interplay between the five elements.
The five elements of Purple Bodhi Seed belong to gold. When processing, they should be stir-fried in high-quality Guanyin soil noodles. However, when Guzheng dealt with the funds, Bodhizi directly burned them with the ‘true fire of life’.
The treatment methods that made the weapon spirit even more worried happened one after another. Most of Gu Zheng's treatment of the ingredients did not follow the method passed down by the Tiexian, which made it difficult for the weapon spirit to imagine what the grade of such a holy fruit food would be.
Gu Zheng finally processed all the ingredients, and he was going to start cooking this holy fruit food that he valued very much.
The weapon spirit didn't dare to look at it anymore. Originally, the holy fruit food made from the ingredients given by the Tiexian would be a dish, but now with the ingredients processed by Gu Zheng, the weapon spirit thought that it would be a steamed bun.
"A steamed bun, a steamed bun, my God! Such a holy fruit food, I have never seen it in my life, is this still a holy fruit food?" The weapon spirit secretly roared madly.
Gu Zheng made a steamed bun indeed. All the ingredients were processed into powder, and then mixed and kneaded with milk ginseng liquid, and then steamed in a steamer.
However, Gu Zheng's expression was more solemn than ever before when cooking food. He used the Fire Control Technique, Water Control Technique, and Wood Control Technique in turn, and he simply used all his skills.
The spirit of the weapon looked at Gu Zheng's efforts weakly, and his eyes slowly widened as time went by, because the smell coming from the pot was very fragrant, which was not like the smell of a bad food cultivation.
"Humph, the key is that the ingredients are good, so there is such a fragrance." The spirit of the weapon snorted.
"Are you very pessimistic about my change this time?"
As if he had seen through the spirit of the weapon, Gu Zheng, who was originally concentrating on cooking, suddenly talked to her.
"No, you did a good job!" The spirit of the weapon smiled but did not smile.
"Haha!"
Gu Zheng laughed: "I didn't expect you to be so concerned about the holy fruit food cultivation I made this time that you were a little angry. It's rare!"
It would have been better if Gu Zheng didn't see through the spirit of the weapon. As soon as he revealed the spirit of the weapon's thoughts, the spirit of the weapon's mouth immediately crackled like frying beans.
"You also know that I'm angry?"
"Hehe, you conceited guy, do you think that you can replace the method passed down by Master Tiexian with a casual change?"
"Let me tell you, how can the method passed down by Master Tiexian be changed so easily?"
"You are really bold, this is a treasure of heaven and earth!"
"Not to mention the Hunyuan Immortal Fruit, even those auxiliary ingredients are all extremely rare things!"
"You are really bold, you dare to make such a huge change after three days of thinking, now that the matter is done, I want to see how you will cry for ruining this food cultivation, when can you improve your cultivation to the fourth level of Tiexian Jue!"
"You, you bastard, you make me so angry!"
After listening to the spirit of the instrument saying a lot, Gu Zheng was not angry, but laughed out loud.
"Spirit of the instrument, you are very cute now, I don't know how much more humane you are than when we first met."
Gu Zheng's serious voice paused, and then his face was full of smirk.
"Three days? Do you know how many times I have deduced in these three days? How could I not know that you want me to enter the prehistoric world earlier, how could I not know how hard it is to get these ingredients?"
"You are really too concerned! The food cultivation method passed down by Master Tiexian is not easy to change, how could I not know this?"
"Have you forgotten that I have completed the task of 'breakthrough in food cultivation'?"
"In your opinion, the room for change of the holy fruit food cultivation is not large, but in my opinion, its room for change exceeds any previous food cultivation!"
"Maybe you were already angry when I started to process the ingredients, but what I want to tell you is that Master Tiexian's method of processing ingredients is The five elements are mutually generated, and my method of processing ingredients, in addition to the five elements being mutually generated, also has the five elements being mutually restrained! Whether it is mutual generation or mutual restraint, using the right method and place can produce endless wonderful effects. "
The smirk on Gu Zheng's face stopped, and turned into an incomparable confidence: "Be proud of me! This time, I am 100% sure that the effect of the holy fruit food cultivation must be better than the method passed down by the Lord Tiexian, and it is more than a little better!"
Gu Zheng's verbal bombardment made the spirit of the weapon a little dizzy, especially when she saw the confident smile on his face, the spirit of the weapon felt that she was also much more confident. As for the original anger in her heart, she didn't know when it had flown away to the sky.
That is, during the time when Gu Zheng and the spirit of the weapon communicated, the fragrance in the air was already very strong, but it was not yet charming.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
Suddenly, the steamer jumped violently, as if what was steamed inside was not a steamed bun, but a lively rabbit.
The spirit's eyes were wide open, and they were slowly filled with excitement. The abnormality of the steamer could only mean one thing, that is, this holy fruit food cultivator was going through a tribulation! The fact that it could go through a tribulation was enough to prove that the method used by Gu Zheng was correct, and once it survived this tribulation, it would be a qualified holy fruit food cultivator.
"Want to destroy? Don't even think about it!"
Facing the violently beating steamer, Gu Zheng shouted, put one hand on the steamer, and quickly drew an invisible fairy array on the lid of the cage with the other hand.
The violently beating steamer quieted down, and a white mist suddenly rushed out of the steamer, and the sweet smell in the air became very charming.
However, the good omen lasted only for a moment, and the fairy array drawn by Gu Zheng on the lid of the cage suddenly appeared, and then disappeared in an instant! Then, under the suppression of Gu Zheng's palm, the steamer began to beat violently again, and the amplitude and frequency were even better than before.
"Calm down!"
Gu Zheng roared, the gold control technique that had never been used before came into use at this time, and saw a golden light rushing out from the fairy pot and shooting into the steamer! The originally noisy steamer also became quiet at this moment, and then more white mist flew out of the steamer, and the sweet smell in the air gradually increased.
