"You guys are quite good at adding insult to injury!"
Gu Zheng frowned and looked at the people of Spirit Sword Sect with a sneer.
"No, we're not adding insult to injury, we're just calmly analyzing."
Chou Shan smiled, her old face wrinkled like an orange peel.
"Well, calm analysis, very good!"
Gu Zheng nodded and remembered this account in his heart.
A moment later.
"Senior Brother, except for the loss of pure Yin Qi, Junior Sister Luo has no other abnormalities. In addition, I found a tracking jade talisman on Junior Sister Luo's body. "
Junior Sister Li handed the tracking jade talisman to Yang Lanbo.
Yang Lanbo let Junior Sister Li check Luo Xiao's body just to shut other people's mouths. The tracking jade talisman was what he wanted Junior Sister Li to find.
For a long time, Luo Xiao paid special attention to Gu Zheng. Others may not have noticed, but Yang Lanbo, as the leader, had seen it all.
Yang Lanbo injected his internal energy into the tracking jade talisman. A white light flashed on the jade talisman, and a clear image appeared in the air. If it wasn't Gu Zheng, who else could it be!
"Junior Sister Li and I have checked. Junior Sister Luo's strange loss of pure Yin Qi is indeed from the Mysterious Yin Demonic Spider. You've already seen the image on the tracking jade talisman. It's Junior Sister Luo Xiao tracking Sect Leader Gu. If Junior Sister Luo Xiao dies here, I'll bring her body back to the sect. As for how to deal with this matter, it's all up to the Supreme Elders. But now, if anyone dares to say anything bad about Sect Leader Gu, then I'll treat it as stirring up trouble and destroying the unity! "Yang Lanbo coldly glanced around.
No one said anything. If they were not rational before, then after Luo Xiao's body was checked, and even Gu Zheng's image appeared on the tracking jade talisman, they all calmed down.
"Sect Leader Gu, let's talk in private."
After Yang Lanbo took Gu Zheng to the compartment, he released his internal energy and formed a light cover, covering him and Gu Zheng inside. This was a rare soundproof cultivation method.
"Sect Leader Gu, do you know about the tracking jade talisman?"
"Yes, it's an auxiliary type of immortal tool. It can track people through their blood."
Gu Zheng understood that Luo Xiao had obtained his blood because of the injuries he had sustained during the battle with the three spirit beasts in Cloud Mist Valley. However, Gu Zheng did not know why Yang Lanbo would ask such a question.
"Sect Leader Gu is right, but what you know is a low-level tracking jade pendant. Junior Sister Luo has a noble status in the sect, so the tracking jade pendant she uses is actually her self-defense immortal weapon. There is only one such pendant in the sect! It was given to her by the sect master on the opening day of the Shu Ruins. "
"The tracking jade tablet can provide Junior Martial Sister Luo Xiao with a light shield. The defensive power of this light shield is even stronger than Sect Leader Gu's Emei Light Shield. The Mysterious Yin Demonic Spider needs to absorb the Pure Yin Qi through the Time Spider Silk. This will take a relatively short time. During this time, Junior Martial Sister Luo Xiao can definitely use the tracking jade pendant's light shield to bounce off the Time Spider Silk. Although she will still be injured, she won't be in this state. "
"Other than self-protection, the light shield of the Tracking Jade Token can also be used to attack. If the light shield is cast on the enemy, other than the effect of confinement, it can also cause strong burning damage. This is especially effective against spirit beasts."
"I've seen that the tracking jade pendant's immortal tool Divine Ability has been used. I wonder if Sect Leader Gu has remembered anything unusual? If so, I hope you don't hold a grudge against Junior Martial Sister Luo Xiao. I think she really likes you! "
Yang Lanbo's words made Gu Zheng's heart tremble. An extremely uncomfortable feeling surged in his heart.
The abnormality after the battle and Luo Xiao's apologetic look when she fell kept flashing in front of Gu Zheng's eyes.
"You want to save her?"
The Weapon Spirit's voice suddenly sounded.
"Yes."
"Why?"
"There's no why like you think! At first, I blamed her for being a hindrance. But just now, when I found out that she used a life-saving method to make up for her mistake, I suddenly felt extremely uncomfortable! It's true that she was a hindrance, but she didn't deserve to die! "
"Then how do you want to save her?"
"Yes."
"How do you want to save her?"
"Can you use the Immortal Dew Pill?"
The Immortal Dew Pill that Gu Zheng was talking about was the reward given by the Weapon Spirit after Elder Liang's anorexia was cured.
The Immortal Dew Pill was a sacred healing item. It could cure any serious illness. The loss of Luo Xiao's pure Yin Qi was also a kind of illness!
"I don't want to say much. I just want to remind you that you originally left the Immortal Dew Pill for your father. I don't have a second one of these pills," the Weapon Spirit said coldly.
"Cut the crap. Just because you don't have pills doesn't mean that you don't have food cultivation methods. Let me tell you, if something similar happens to my father, if you don't think of a way for me, anyone can be Gokusen's successor!"
This was a matter of principle. Gu Zheng would not compromise, even if he was beaten to death by the immortal vine.
"You!"
The Weapon Spirit was at a loss for words. He huffed angrily and didn't say anything else.
While Gu Zheng and the Weapon Spirit were talking, Yang Lanbo had already left. Now that he had made up his mind, Gu Zheng immediately left the cubicle.
The people outside were whispering. When they saw Gu Zheng appear, all their gazes fell on him.
"What's the matter, Sect Leader Gu? Are you blaming yourself? You don't feel too good, right? "
A woman's intuition was very scary. Even though Chou Shan was an old woman without love, Yang Lanbo didn't tell her anything. It was she who guessed some things from the clues.
Chou Shan didn't think of the consequences of her cheap mouth. She only saw Gu Zheng sneer at her playfully. That feeling made her tremble.
"Deacon Yang, I know a prescription that can treat Luo Xiao's condition!"
Gu Zheng's words shocked everyone.
"What?"
Yang Lanbo, who was originally sitting cross-legged, stood up with a whoosh. Everyone in the Shushan Sect had a similar reaction! Luo Xiao's status was noble. If she died, everyone would suffer.
"I can cure Luo Xiao, but I don't have the medicinal herbs needed to brew that kind of soup." Gu Zheng said.
"What medicinal herbs do you need?"
Yang Lanbo wasn't the only one who asked. Almost everyone in the Shu Mountain Sect asked the same question.
"I need Night Bright Flower, Spring Withered Grass, Sweet Grass, Purple Flame Flower, Silver Frost Leaf, Blue Star Fruit, Fierce Sun Flower Vine, and Gold and Silver Root."
Every time Gu Zheng mentioned a medicinal ingredient, Chou Shan's heart would beat wildly. Every time he spoke, Chou Shan's forehead would be covered in sweat.
"Why do we have all the medicinal herbs he mentioned?"
Chou Shan groaned in her heart. Even though Gu Zheng didn't look at her, she felt that something was going to happen.
"This …" Yang Lanbo's eyes widened. "Sect Leader Gu, although the medicinal herbs you mentioned are produced in the Shu Ruins, we haven't gotten a single one of them this time!"
"Shu Mountain Sect is united. When one sect is in trouble, all the other sects should help!"
Gu Zheng's impassioned voice paused, and then he looked at the trembling Chou Shan. "Shu Mountain Sect doesn't have it. What about the Spirit Sword Sect?"
The groan in Chou Shan's heart turned into a howl. Gu Zheng pointed at the Spirit Sword Sect at this time. Did he really find something?
"The Spirit Sword Sect doesn't have it either."
Chou Shan subconsciously denied. Anyway, they had just joined Shu Mountain Sect recently. Shu Mountain Sect didn't know what resources they had.
"Is there really nothing?"
Gu Zheng stared at Chou Shan and smiled with some disappointment.
Yang Lanbo looked at Chou Shan and said meaningfully, "Chou Shan, if you have the medicinal herbs that Sect Leader Gu needs, I hope you can hand them over. Saving people is like putting out a fire!"
"If we don't have it, how do you want me to hand it over?"
Chou Shan was anxious. The things Gu Zheng wanted were not cabbages. They were very precious medicinal herbs, especially the last two that were extremely rare. In order to get them, the Spirit Sword Sect spent a lot of effort, and she, Chou Shan, was injured because of it. Besides, if it was under normal circumstances, the medicinal herbs would be given. It was a loan from Shu Mountain Sect. After leaving the Shu Ruins, they would return it. However, the current situation was not normal at all!
After leaving the Cloud Valley, the Spirit Sword Sect was invited by Yang Lanbo to form an alliance with Shu Mountain Sect in the Shu Ruins. Since it was an alliance, there were naturally rules. And one of those damn rules was: When one side's disciple was injured and needed treatment, the allies must unconditionally support each other!
"Chou Shan, you're going too far. We obviously have it, why do you say we don't have it?"
The disappointment on Gu Zheng's face was even heavier, but in fact, he was laughing in his heart. The things that he wanted were all things that the Spirit Sword Sect did not have and that the Spirit Sword Sect did! Moreover, the lowest level of these things was ordinary. As for the Fierce Sun Flower Vine and the Gold and Silver Root, they were even intermediate level!
"You recklessly offended me. See if I don't kill you!"
Gu Zheng sneered in his heart. Originally, he did not intend to make a fortune by treating Luo Xiao. It was Chou Shan's cheap mouth that suddenly gave him an inspiration.
"I have no idea what you're talking about. Spirit Sword Sect disciples, let's go. Sect Leader Gu has lost his mind!"
Chou Shan flicked her sleeve and was about to leave with her people. Yang Lanbo gave a look, and the Shu Mountain disciples stopped the three of them.
"What's the matter, Deacon Yang? Do you still want to search the camp? Don't you believe what this old woman said? You're making our Spirit Sword Sect lose face, aren't you? "
Chou Shan first roared at Yang Lanbo, and then looked at Gu Zheng. "Sect Leader Gu has a good method to make the Spirit Sword Sect lose face. This is a beautiful move! However, what if the Shu Mountain disciples search the camp and can't find the medicinal herbs you mentioned? "
Chou Shan understood that being searched was inevitable, so she might as well take the initiative to mention it. This way, she would appear more confident.
"Chou Shan, how thick is your old face? You still want to set a trap? You ask me what to do if I can't find it? But what if I find it? "
Gu Zheng's super confidence made Chou Shan's heart beat wildly. She wanted to make a big bet, but she really did not dare to! If she did not take the bait, it meant that something was wrong. If she took the bait too slowly, it would also mean that something was wrong!
In a flash, Chou Shan, who was scalded by everyone's gaze, roared.
"If you find it, this old woman will marry you!"
"Damn!"
Gu Zheng almost jumped up in fright. This Chou Shan, in order to not be at a disadvantage, was really going all out.
"Don't, I don't dare to bet with you. I'm scared of you!"
Gu Zheng shook his head like a rattle-drum, and then said to Yang Lanbo, "There's no need to search the camp. These medicinal herbs are precious. They carry them with them. They're in Zhu Ming's backpack!"
"No!"
Zhu Ming's heart was in a mess. Ever since Gu Zheng named the medicinal herbs, the backpack on his back had been as heavy as a big rock! Now that Gu Zheng had pointed out that the medicinal ingredients were in his bag, he couldn't help but loosen the straps on his bag that made it hard for him to breathe even as he denied it.
"Sect Leader Gu, you …"
"Enough, don't say anymore!"
Yang Lanbo interrupted Chou Shan and stared at Zhu Ming with eyes full of anger. "Is there really nothing in the backpack?"
Zhu Ming wanted to confess, but when he saw Chou Shan's eyes, he could only straighten his neck. "There really isn't anything!"
Yang Lanbo did not say anything more. He said one word. "Search!"
The items in Zhu Ming's backpack were brutally poured out by the Shushan disciples.
Luminous Night Flower, Spring Withered Grass, Sweet Grass, Purple Flame Flower, Silver Frost Leaf, Blue Star Fruit, Scorching Sun Flower Vine, Gold and Silver Root.
"Good, Chou Shan, you explain to me what's going on?"
Yang Lanbo flew into a rage. At the critical moment of saving lives, Chou Shan actually dared to play tricks. This made him grind his teeth so hard that they creaked!
"I'll beat you to death, you bastard! What the hell is going on? "
Chou Shan, who pretended to be confused, had already thought of a countermeasure. She flew up and kicked Zhu Ming to the ground.
Chou Shan's kick was very heavy. She had no choice but to do so. If she did not do so, it would be difficult for the public to be angry!
"What the hell is going on? It's amazing! How could these medicinal herbs be in my backpack? Oh, I know! It must be that bastard Gongsun Teng who secretly put them in my backpack! "
At the critical moment, Zhu Ming's reaction was also very fast. He opened his mouth and completely shifted the responsibility. And the Gongsun Teng he mentioned was now guarding the Spirit Sword Sect's camp.
"Is that so? Tang Xing, go to the Spirit Sword Sect's camp immediately to investigate this matter! "
The angry Yang Lanbo was not so easy to fool, and he immediately responded.
"Let me tell you, if something similar happens in the future, don't blame me, Yang Lanbo, for being impolite!"
Yang Lanbo's voice was like a lion's roar. Chou Shan and Zhu Ming couldn't help but tremble in fear.
"Sect Leader Gu, what should we do next?"
"Prepare a pot for me. I'm going to the compartment to boil the herbs. But there's a condition. I don't like to be stared at when I boil the herbs! "
Gu Zheng took the herbs from Yang Lanbo's hand, and his tone was unquestionable.
"No, if we don't watch, who knows if you won't take these herbs!"
Chou Shan roared. Looking at the herbs in Gu Zheng's hand, her heart was bleeding.
"If you can do it, then do it!"
Gu Zheng directly handed the herbs to Chou Shan, but Chou Shan didn't dare to reach out to take it.
"Enough!"
Yang Lanbo took a step in front of Chou Shan and said word by word, "If you want me to do this again, then go ahead and find trouble for me!"
Chou Shan withered. Gu Zheng took the herbs into the compartment.
"Luo Xiao, Luo Xiao!"
Looking at Luo Xiao's pale face, Gu Zheng sighed and began to boil the herbs.
The so-called boiling of the herbs was just a process. Gu Zheng casually took out some second-grade herbs and threw them into the pot. As for how the people outside would feel when they smelled the fragrance of the herbs, it was no longer within the scope of his consideration. Shushan Sect now only wanted to save Luo Xiao. As for other things, they were secondary.
The Spirit Sword Sect was really unlucky this time. They had been extorted by Gu Zheng for so many medicinal herbs. Even if Shu Ruins was a treasure trove, the two middle-grade medicinal herbs were extremely precious resources for anyone.
So far, Gu Zheng had obtained medium-grade ingredients in Shu Ruins. In addition to medium-grade immortal fruits, there were six kinds of medium-grade ingredients: golden peanuts, beauty flower, long-tongued beast meat, wolf meat, fierce sun flower vine, and gold and silver root! He only needed the last medium-grade ingredient to make the 'Marrow Cleansing Food Cultivation'.
"I hope you won't be stupid again. I don't intend to find a Taoist companion."
The herbs had been boiled. Gu Zheng put the Immortal Dew Pill into Luo Xiao's mouth.
The Immortal Dew Pill melted in her mouth. In just a moment, Luo Xiao's face had recovered a trace of color.
"Okay."
A moment later, Luo Xiao let out a groan. Her eyelids trembled and showed signs of opening.
Gu Zheng didn't want to see Luo Xiao, so he immediately walked out of the compartment.
Luo Xiao woke up as expected. Although her body was very weak, with the care of the people of Shushan Sect, it would take two or three days for her to recover.
Not wanting to stay in Shushan Sect's camp any longer, Gu Zheng then said goodbye to Yang Lanbo.
Yang Lanbo expressed his gratitude to Gu Zheng for treating Luo Xiao. Gu Zheng also took the opportunity to ask him if he had 'Rosemary'. Unfortunately, Shushan Sect didn't have it.
Yang Lanbo wanted to form an alliance with Emei Sect. For such a request, Gu Zheng naturally refused.
After leaving Shushan Sect's camp that night, Gu Zheng met up with the long-mouthed dog.
The place and time were not suitable. Gu Zheng did not immediately reward the long-mouthed dog. The man and the dog walked in the rain.
The sky cleared up after the rain. The next day was a sunny day.
This time, with the long-mouthed dog leading the way, Gu Zheng still gained a lot. When it was time to reward, Gu Zheng did not hesitate at all.
The fragrance of roasted meat filled the air, and the long-mouthed dog drooled.
"You've done well this time. It's only right for me to reward you."
Gu Zheng smiled and placed the roasted Normal Level Meat Essence on a clean big rock at the side.
"Woof, woof!"
The long-mouthed dog barked twice at Gu Zheng in a fawning manner before hurriedly 'sitting down to eat'.
This meal was really too sumptuous. In addition to the roasted meat, there was also immortal wine that Gu Zheng had diluted, a bowl of immortal rice porridge, and a "rare fruit platter" that he had specially made for the long-mouthed dog.
The immortal rice porridge was made because Gu Zheng had been eating too much roasted meat recently, and he wanted to change it up. As for the "rare fruit platter", it contained all kinds of mutant fruits and immortal fruits that Gu Zheng had obtained in the Shu Ruins.
The long-mouthed dog knew that Gu Zheng did not like it to make too much noise when eating. It also knew that Gu Zheng did not like its human head. Therefore, when it ate the immortal rice porridge, it licked very slowly and tried not to make any noise.
The long-mouthed dog had never eaten the immortal rice porridge before, and Gu Zheng did not extract the immortal power contained in it. Therefore, after the long-mouthed dog licked the porridge, it immediately became very excited.
Although the long-mouthed dog had lived in the Shu Ruins for many years, it was the first time it had tasted something that contained immortal power. That kind of almost instinctive demanding made it quickly finish the bowl of immortal rice porridge.
The "rare fruit platter" was very beautiful. On the outside, there was a circle of small fragrant pears. Inside, there were cinnabar fruits, diced spirit peaches, and blood crystal grapes. As for the innermost part, there were jade dragon eyes, golden lychees, five-fingered bananas, and immortal vine papayas arranged in a flower shape.
The long-mouthed dog was already half-transformed, so it naturally knew about things like beauty. Just by looking at the shape, it knew that Gu Zheng had put in some effort to make food for it.
"Ji ji."
The long-mouthed dog hummed twice at Gu Zheng to express its gratitude. It hurriedly and carefully licked a small piece of fragrant pear.
In the entire "rare fruit platter", the most precious things were naturally the immortal fruits from the Cloud Mist Valley. Because of this, the stingy artifact spirit scolded Gu Zheng for a long time, saying that the immortal fruits were precious and that Gu Zheng was too wasteful.
Gu Zheng naturally dismissed the artifact spirit's words with a smile. He would reward the long-mouthed dog so "heavily" not only because the dog had contributed a lot, but also because he wanted it to eat better and search for ingredients more diligently. As for the Immortal Fruits in the Precious Fruit Platter, they were nothing. After all, they were not whole Immortal Fruits. They were just a small portion of the Immortal Fruits that Gu Zheng had saved after tasting them.
Although the immortal fruits were precious, Gu Zheng had not tasted the golden lychees, five-fingered bananas, and immortal vine papayas. If he had to wait until he reached the Fourth Layer and became an immortal fruit cultivator before he could taste them, it would be an incomparably cruel torture for a foodie like him.
The long-mouthed dog was very excited to eat the immortal rice porridge that contained a bit of immortal energy. When it ate the immortal fruits that contained an overwhelming amount of immortal energy, its big dog eyes were filled with tears. Its head rubbed against Gu Zheng's leg, causing goosebumps to rise all over Gu Zheng's body. He hurriedly kicked it away.
"Long-mouthed dog, now that you're full, shouldn't you bring me to search for ingredients?"
There were only twelve days left before they left Shu Ruins. If Gu Zheng wanted to obtain more ingredients, he had to hurry.
"Chirp chirp, woof woof!"
The long-mouthed dog jumped and barked, answering Gu Zheng's question in its own way.
After spending a long time with the long-mouthed dog, Gu Zheng understood what it wanted to say very quickly.
"What? Are you saying that among the ingredients you know, there aren't any that I can see? "Gu Zheng asked with his eyes wide open.
"Woof woof."
The long-mouthed dog lowered its head and used its voice to show that Gu Zheng understood it correctly.
"Think about it again. It doesn't necessarily have to see ingredients. You can even go to places where you think there might be ingredients."
Gu Zheng was also helpless. They had just finished the celebration banquet. Were they going to break up?
The long-mouthed dog crazily dug the soil, just like a person scratching his head anxiously.
After a while, the long-mouthed dog stopped digging and jumped up.
"Woof woof woof."
The long-mouthed dog barked and jumped around for a while, shivering all over.
"You mean you know a place that might have ingredients, but it's an extremely cold place. Even you can't stay there for long, right?"
The long-mouthed dog nodded to show that Gu Zheng's guess was correct.
"I didn't expect there to be such a place in Shu Ruins. Lead the way!"
Gu Zheng was excited. He really wanted to see how cold the place the long-mouthed dog was talking about was.
If it weren't for the trip to Tianshan Mountain, Gu Zheng wouldn't have thought about going to a place that even the long-mouthed dog was afraid of! However, during the trip to Tianshan Mountain, Gu Zheng had made a mid-grade "Ice Spirit Food Cultivation" in order to resist the extreme cold when the thousand-year snow lotus seed ripened. His body had gained a permanent resistance to the cold!
Gu Zheng didn't know how strong his body's resistance to the cold was. He had always wanted to find an opportunity to try, but he had never found a suitable place. He didn't expect there to be such a place in Shu Ruins!
Gu Zheng's heart beat wildly at the thought of exploring the polar region.
The environment in Shu Ruins was good, and Gu Zheng needed a lot of ingredients. However, a group of people would enter Shu Ruins every ten years, which inevitably reduced the number of ingredients that met his requirements. Polar regions, on the other hand, were different. It meant that very few people would set foot there. Moreover, the kind of polar region that the long-beaked dog was talking about was so cold that even it couldn't withstand it. This also reduced the possibility of people setting foot there.
The polar region wasn't completely barren. Just like the South Pole on Earth, there were still plants and animals. The long-mouthed dog thought of the polar region because it felt that there were ingredients that met Gu Zheng's requirements in the polar region.
Understanding Gu Zheng's attitude, the long-mouthed dog immediately led the way and ran wildly.
Gu Zheng thought that the polar region might be very far away, but he didn't expect it to be so far.
After running for four days without stopping, Gu Zheng saw a stretch of snowy mountains.
After entering the snowy mountains, they rushed for another two days. The temperature gradually dropped to a level that the long-mouthed dog couldn't bear. At this point, Gu Zheng roughly understood how much the mid-grade Ice Spirit Food Cultivation had increased his resistance to the cold.
Gu Zheng was more resistant to the cold than the high-level long-mouthed dog. This was an indisputable fact. It had to be said that his resistance to the cold was already inhuman.
On the sixth day, when the long-mouthed dog led the way, they stopped at the entrance of a large canyon. The canyon was the polar region that the long-mouthed dog had mentioned.
In fact, it wasn't frozen like they had imagined. On the contrary, they could occasionally see a little bit of green in the snow. There was a large river in the canyon, and there were pieces of ice floating on the river.
According to normal thinking, such an environment shouldn't be so cold. However, this was Shu Ruins after all, not the real world. It was so cold that it was strange.
"Woof woof."
The long-mouthed dog barked pitifully, indicating that it couldn't bear to enter the canyon again.
Gu Zheng shrunk his neck. He also felt very cold, but this degree of coldness was similar to that of a person wearing thick equipment and going to a snowy mountain. It wasn't that scary.
"Drink this."
Gu Zheng took out a bowl of black liquid from the Chaos Space. This was the Ice Spirit Food Cultivation that he had taken the time to make on the way here.
Although Gu Zheng had been hurrying along the way, he still gained a lot. Especially when he was hurrying on the snowy mountain, he had obtained some ingredients that could only be found in cold places.
At first, Gu Zheng wanted to make a mid-grade Ice Spirit Food Cultivation, but the main ingredient was very troublesome. Fortunately, when the wolf pack attacked at night, Gu Zheng had obtained some meat from the Tianshan Gray Wolf King. This satisfied the requirements of making an Ice Spirit Food Cultivation and made a mid-grade Ice Spirit Food Cultivation.
Ordinary ingredients were considered common in Shu Ruins. When Gu Zheng passed by the snowy mountain, he had hunted a snow bear, some snow wolves, snow foxes and other spirit beasts.
The ingredients of these spirit beasts were all ordinary and contained the characteristics of ice spirits in cold places. This allowed Gu Zheng to easily make a mid-grade Ice Spirit Food Cultivation. Moreover, the effect of the Ice Spirit Food Cultivation this time was better than the previous one due to the good ingredients. This was also in line with the saying, 'Good medicinal herbs, good medicinal herbs!'
The long-mouthed dog used a bowl of Ice Spirit Food Cultivation, and Gu Zheng also used a bowl.
This was the first time the long-mouthed dog used an Ice Spirit Food Cultivation, and the effect was very obvious. After drinking a bowl, its body stopped shaking and its legs stood up. It even licked the ice on the ground as if it wanted to know why it was so cold.
This was the second time Gu Zheng drank it. Although the effect wasn't as obvious as the long-mouthed dog's, he could feel that his resistance to the cold had increased a little.
After drinking the Ice Spirit Food Cultivation, Gu Zheng and the long-mouthed dog entered the canyon. The long-mouthed dog lived up to the Ice Spirit Food Cultivation that Gu Zheng had given it. It took the lead and was responsible for patrolling the area.
The place where Gu Zheng walked was near the river. As he walked, the voice of the Weapon Spirit could be heard from time to time.
"Inferior ingredient Green Striped Clam found in the river."
"Inferior ingredient Extreme Ice Moss found on the shore."
"Ordinary ingredient Extreme Snowfield Flower found on the shore."
"Ordinary ingredient Silver Eel found in the river."
"Ordinary ingredient Small Green Prawn found in the river."
"Ordinary ingredient Ice Water Yellow Croaker found in the river."
"Ordinary ingredient Spotted Catfish found in the river."
Gu Zheng walked and stopped, and the fishes and prawns in the river jumped around him. In his Chaotic Space, he collected batch after batch of ingredients.
Gu Zheng smiled until his eyes narrowed. This feeling was like picking up grain in the field. After a few steps, he had to stop and bend down to pick up an ear of wheat.
"The Polar Regions are the Polar Regions after all. The quality of the ingredients here is good and the quantity is large. I'm really lucky!"
Gu Zheng wanted to laugh wildly. More than four hours of picking up was equivalent to all the ingredients he had collected since he entered the Shu Ruins, except for the mutant fruits, immortal fruits, spirit pills and spirit beast meat!
Moreover, this was really just picking up. There was no danger at all. It was as if he had stepped into a treasure trove without any traps. In fact, a similar situation had happened when he was looking for the Cloud Spirit Fruit. However, the quality of the river fish produced in that river was not as good as here, except for the fact that there were more varieties.
Even though it felt great, extreme joy begets sorrow. Sometimes, it came very quickly.
After walking for another half an hour, Gu Zheng had no harvest at all. Other than the inferior ingredients in the river, the intermediate ingredients had disappeared completely as if they had evaporated.
Now that Gu Zheng's Chaotic Space was about to reach a state of saturation, Gu Zheng did not want to repeat the inferior ingredients.
Just as Gu Zheng was wondering if his large harvest had startled the fish and prawns and caused them to swim away, the figure of the long-mouthed dog appeared in the distance.
Looking at the long-mouthed dog, Gu Zheng could not help but curse, "Bastard, who did this!"
Although the long-mouthed dog's fur was not good looking, after following Gu Zheng for a period of time and eating immortal fruits, its yellow fur was glossy and shiny.
But now, a lot of its glossy fur was burned and its face was almost disfigured. How could Gu Zheng, who regarded the long-mouthed dog as his subordinate, not be angry?
"Woof woof."
As if it had been wronged, the long-mouthed dog began to 'tell' its story.
According to Gu Zheng's understanding, this was what had happened: At the foot of a mountain in the distance, there was a very powerful spirit beast that was sacrificing its inner core. This spirit beast was a fire-type spirit beast and was very good at using fire-type spells! After discovering the long-mouthed dog, it chased after it and gave it a good beating. If the long-mouthed dog had not run fast enough, it would not have been able to see Gu Zheng.
After understanding the long-mouthed dog's meaning, Gu Zheng threw a high-grade spirit beast's inner core to the long-mouthed dog.
The long-mouthed dog looked miserable, but the injuries on its body were only superficial. The main reason why Gu Zheng gave it a high-grade spirit beast's inner core as a reward was to praise its loyalty.
The long-mouthed dog was actually afraid that Gu Zheng would not be able to defeat it, so it did not directly call out to Gu Zheng. Instead, it ran back to tell him. This was a very good performance.
While Gu Zheng was angry that his subordinate was beaten up, he was also very excited in his heart!
To be able to beat the long-mouthed dog and give it a chance to escape, it should be a high-grade spirit beast that was equivalent to the late stage of the fifth level.
A high-grade spirit beast that lived in the Shu Ruins at the late stage of the fifth level would most likely have ordinary meat.
The meat of an ordinary fire-type spirit beast could be used as the main ingredient for the 'Fire Spirit Food Cultivation', and Gu Zheng had already obtained the 'Fire Spirit Food Cultivation'. It was one of the three food cultivation methods that he had obtained when he completed the 'Search for three unknown delicacies' earlier! It was also the last one that Gu Zheng had not made because he did not have the main ingredient.
Moreover, according to the long-mouthed dog's description, this matter was a little unusual.
It was common knowledge that there were only spirit beasts with spiritual cores in the Shu Ruins, and no spirit beasts with inner cores. However, the spirit beast that injured the long-mouthed dog was a spirit beast with inner cores!
However, after thinking about it, Gu Zheng felt relieved.
This was already very deep in the Shu Ruins. Before coming here, he had never even heard of such a cold place. Therefore, it was not strange for a spirit beast with inner cores to appear here.
Knowing oneself and knowing one's enemy, one could win a hundred battles. Gu Zheng asked the weapon spirit, "According to the long-mouthed dog's' description ', what do you think that spirit beast was?"
