The decaying old man looked at Yi Tianyun. He didn't know where Yi Tianyun got his confidence from, but he wasn't surprised.
"It's good to be confident, but you can't be too full of yourself. Basically all the people who came here said the same thing. In the end, they couldn't find the dish I wanted to eat, and some people even tried to attack me! "
The decaying old man coldly snorted. "Anyone who tried to attack me would be severely punished. I hope you won't do such a thing. If you want to become my master, you'll have to show me some skill!"
The decaying old man didn't say what those people thought. He was definitely very strict. If they felt that they couldn't pass, they would try to see if they could control it.
As long as they could suppress the artifact spirit, they could indeed forcefully become the master. But the difficulty was higher, and it varied from person to person.
Yi Tianyun felt that those people were all idiots. This was an Empyrean's treasure, how could it be so easily controlled? Unless it was a weaker artifact spirit, such a powerful existence couldn't be easily controlled.
"I'm not being arrogant, I just feel that I have the ability!" Yi Tianyun sat down to the side and began to think. He wanted to see if there was anything that matched this taste.
"A sweet and sour taste …" Yi Tianyun closed his eyes in thought.
The undying old man sat to the side, slowly drinking his tea. He didn't say anything. In any case, he had enough time. He didn't need to worry about time.
"Is it that kind of thing?" Yi Tianyun opened his eyes, and two rays of light burst out from his eyes.
Then he quickly stood up and began to search for spirit herbs nearby. He easily picked out two kinds of spirit herbs without spending any time at all.
The decaying old man saw that he had only found two spirit herbs nearby and had already brought them to the table. He was startled. "Just two spirit herbs?"
"That's right, just two spirit herbs. Spirit herbs don't taste good just because you have more. And now, I only need these two spirit herbs to answer your question. That's more than enough. "
Yi Tianyun only brought two kinds of spirit medicine, no more and no less, just two kinds of spirit medicine.
The decaying old man looked at the two spirit herbs and said, "There shouldn't only be two kinds of spirit herbs, but it's fine. Since we failed, let's keep looking."
Yi Tianyun ignored him. He simply threw the two spirit herbs into the air and began to refine them with his flames. It was similar to alchemy, just not as crude.
Under Yi Tianyun's meticulous refinement, the liquid refined from the two spirit herbs gradually became thicker and more solid. At the same time, a sweet and sour smell wafted out from the air, completely cooking the essence of the two elixirs.
The sweet and sour taste produced a kind of aroma that made people reminisce about it.
Smelling this fragrance, the decaying old man couldn't help but shout, "Too, too similar. It's really too similar to this fragrance. This, this is impossible … "
What he didn't believe was that these two ordinary spirit herbs could actually cook the fragrance that he was familiar with. After so many years, he could finally smell this fragrance.
Yi Tianyun didn't answer. After a while, he poured the half-liquid, half-solid thick substance into the plate. In the process, when the thick liquid slid down, it pulled out long thin threads, looking crystal clear.
Then, Yi Tianyun immediately used the Netherworld Flame. The cold air cooled the thick substance quickly, but it looked soft, like syrup, spreading around the plate.
"It's done. You can taste it. This should be the taste you want." Yi Tianyun smiled.
The decaying old man couldn't wait to take the chopsticks. When he put them into the plate, the thing immediately stuck to the chopsticks. Under his pull, it pulled out long threads.
When he put it in his mouth, the sweet and sour taste filled his taste buds. The soft and syrup-like sweet taste danced on the tip of his tongue.
"No, it's still missing a little …" The decaying old man shook his head, but his eyes shone with a strange light.
"Is that so? Just a little bit more. Let's try this material."
Yi Tianyun quickly switched to another spirit fruit. In fact, these were not high grade spirit fruits. The basic taste was sweet and sour, a little similar to hawthorn.
When the corresponding taste was locked on, the range would be greatly reduced. Therefore, he didn't need too many materials to find the corresponding taste.
Although he didn't succeed on the first try, he immediately hit a similar taste. This undoubtedly proved that his choice was right!
Soon, he was done. From the appearance, it could be said that it was almost identical.
The decaying old man couldn't wait to try it, but then he shook his head and said, "It's not this one. It's still missing a little …"
"Then let's change to this …"
…
Yi Tianyun tried again and again. He had roughly a dozen similar tastes on hand, so he only needed to try a dozen times to be able to see the effect.
Finally, when he was done and fed it to the decaying old man, his body stiffened.
"It's, it's this texture, it's this taste … I haven't tasted it for so many years, it's really been so many years …" The old man's eyes reddened in an instant, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes and slid down his cheeks.
It wasn't that this dish was delicious, but that it made him remember all sorts of things in the past.
"It seems that you like Master very much and treat him like a father, right? In order to preserve this memory, you have to imitate him, be it in terms of appearance or voice. " Yi Tianyun picked up the cup of tea and sighed. "Even this tea, I have to learn to taste it and get used to it. But at your current age, you won't be able to get used to it. If you don't like him, then you don't like him. Why force yourself? "
He reached out to touch the decaying old man's head and sighed. "You should also let it go. Memories are beautiful, but you only need to remember them in your heart, there's no need to show them. The reason why your Master made this sweet and sour candy was to make you happy. "
The decaying old man stared blankly at Yi Tianyun, tears falling continuously. His small mouth was open, but he couldn't say a single word.
Yi Tianyun reached out and gently pulled the white eyebrows, white beard, and white hair off the decaying old man's face … These could all be easily removed, and replaced with light green eyebrows, green hair, and a face that looked like a teenage girl.
The artifact spirit of this treasure had the appearance of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old little girl, and was still a bit childish. Those white eyebrows were all for decoration. This was the true appearance of the decaying old man!
The previous Master was able to make this snack because the Artifact Spirit was just a child. What she liked was not the bitter taste of tea, nor the extremely rich taste of meat, but the sweet and sour taste, which was what children liked the most.
"Father …" The decaying old man threw himself into Yi Tianyun's arms. The black robe draped over his body fell off, and what replaced it was a long green dress full of youthfulness.
