"Sect Master Gu, what's going on?"
Seeing that five minutes had passed and Gu Zheng's Three Immortals Sauce was still fine, Luo Jin couldn't help but ask again.
"In the sauce jar of more than a hundred years old, a kind of insect called 'sauce spirit' will be born. This kind of insect is purified by the sauce, so it can also be said to be a kind of monster.
"After the 'sauce spirit' is specially processed and dried, it can be added to the pickles to enhance the flavor of the sauce. However, using the body fragrance of the 'sauce spirit' is a despicable method. The 'sauce spirit' itself is afraid of wine and does not dare to be contaminated by the smell of wine. Once the food with the 'sauce spirit powder' comes into contact with wine, a lot of 'sauce spirits' will be produced. This is also a way to raise the 'sauce spirit'. "
Gu Zheng smiled at Luo Jin. "But there is no problem if you eat the food with the 'sauce spirit powder'. Even if you drink wine, the 'sauce spirit' will not be produced in your stomach."
Hearing Gu Zheng's words, Luo Jin let out a long breath and turned to look at Song Xiu. "Fellow Daoist Song, you are really disgusting. In order to win the bet, you are really unscrupulous. Let's see who dares to eat the food you make in the future!"
"What is a sauce spirit? I don't know at all! I also don't understand why there are these black insects in my food! "
Song Xiu stared at Gu Zheng with hatred. "It must be you, it must be you, you must have added something in my food to give birth to these disgusting insects!"
Song Xiu was like a madman, baring his fangs and brandishing his claws at Gu Zheng, but he was stopped by Zu Qingbo and the others.
"Let me go, let me go, I want to bite him to death!"
Song Xiu grimaced and even foamed at the mouth. His whole body twitched as if he had epilepsy.
"Song Bai, take your brother back, he is sick!"
Zu Qingbo shouted, and Song Bai glared at Gu Zheng again before dragging Song Xiu away.
。 Now that things had developed to this point, whether Song Xiu was really sick or faking it, this was undoubtedly the best ending, and also gave the Kunlun Sect a way out.
"Kunlun will definitely investigate the truth of this matter!" Nangong Chen gritted his teeth. In the end, he announced, "According to the bet, the winner this time is Sect Leader Gu! However, as I said before, this matter has not been investigated clearly. The Kunlun Sect reserves the right to recover the wager! "
The reason why Nangong Chen said this was because he wanted to save some face. To be honest, he really did not want to announce that Gu Zheng was the winner. However, if he did not announce that Gu Zheng was the winner, not to mention the fact that the spectators might not be able to accept it, Gu Zheng himself would definitely not let the matter rest! Although Kunlun didn't care about Emei, there was still Mount Shu above Emei. If the princes went too far, it would be hard for them to explain to their elders.
Since Nangong Chen had already announced that he was the winner, Gu Zheng was too lazy to argue with Nangong Chen. He directly collected the wager on the ground and turned to look at Nangong Chen, "Since you admit that the loser is Song Xiu, according to the previous agreement, the resources that Song Xiu should pay to the judges should also be paid to them! Now that he is no longer here, shouldn't you calculate the resources? "
"We have lost so many resources. Do you think we will deny this little bit?"
Nangong Chen sneered and asked a Kunlun disciple behind him to distribute fifteen Rank Four resources to the three judges.
"Thank you, thank you!"
Luo Jin, who received the resources, thanked him profusely. Nangong Chen gritted his teeth as he watched.
"Song Xiu's interlude, even though I was the one who won in the end, still made me feel very unhappy! If you still want to bet with me, I hope that a similar situation will not happen again! "Gu Zheng looked at Zu Qingbo and said.
"So, you dare to bet with me?"
Zu Qingbo was surprised that Gu Zheng, who had won several times in a row, would say such a thing. It seemed that he didn't know when to stop.
The onlookers were also shocked. They thought that the person who had gone crazy was not only Song Xiu, but also Gu Zheng, who had already earned a lot.
Who was Zu Qingbo? Zu Qingbo was the representative of the Kunlun Immortal Cultivators. Not to mention whether Gu Zheng could defeat him, would this person really dare to win?
"Tell me, what are the stakes? What do you want to bet with me? "
To be honest, before betting with Zu Qingbo and Song Xiu, Gu Zheng was still somewhat hesitant.
However, Song Xiu's shamelessness really did infuriate Gu Zheng. Since the Kunlun Sect's Crown Prince Faction was so shameless, and the upper echelons of the Kunlun Sect didn't take them seriously, then what was wrong with slapping their faces? As for what would happen after the fight, he would think about it after the fight!
"If you want to make a bet with me, then let's do as I said before. I will suppress my cultivation to the same level as yours. I will definitely not go back on my word. As for the bet, I naturally want to win back the things you won from my fellow sect members!"
Zu Qingbo's words caused another uproar among the onlookers. This was simply a case of compound interest!
Gu Zheng had already won against Cui Ying, Nangong Chen, and Song Xiu. The value of the resources he won from them had reached a shocking level. Now that Zu Qingbo wanted to win back these things, he needed to put up a bet that was equivalent to the value of these things.
"You want to win back? Sure! What are your stakes? "Gu Zheng asked with a smile.
"I want to use this immortal treasure as the stake."
Zu Qingbo took out a robe that looked like it was woven from silk.
"The Kunlun Sect's Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe!"
"Daoist Zu is really going all out. He even took out the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe!"
"That's normal. After all, Daoist Nangong even used his life-saving jade talisman to bet!"
The robe that Zu Qingbo took out caused quite a stir. After all, this immortal treasure was very famous.
Among the low-level defensive immortal treasures in the cultivation world, the Emei Ring and the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe were two of the most famous. They could both provide a defensive shield for their owners. There was also a limit to the number of times they could be used each day. However, the most valuable thing was that their defensive properties would increase as the owner's cultivation increased!
If one were to compare the Emei Ring and the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe, the Emei Ring was not as good as the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe! First of all, the number of times the Emei Ring could be used each day was one less than the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe. Its growth rate was also not as high as the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe. Most importantly, although the Emei Ring's Divine Power was also a defensive light shield, its defensive properties were not as good as the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe!
Although the Emei Light Shield had defensive properties. It also had defensive properties against poisonous fog and poisonous water. However, in the underground cave of the Shu Ruins, the poisonous water of the Lava Lizards could cause a lot of damage to the Emei Ring's light shield! If Gu Zheng had worn the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe, the poisonous water of the Lava Lizards would not have been able to touch the light shield at all. This was the difference between them.
If the Emei Ring could be considered as a superior low-level defensive immortal treasure, then the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe could be considered as a top low-level defensive immortal treasure.
"The Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe is very precious. Not to mention other resources, just the life-saving jade talisman that Daoist Nangong lost to me is not something the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe can compare to! Moreover, Daoist Song also lost a complete set of immortal treasures to me. "Gu Zheng shook his head.
"Although the life-saving jade talisman is good, it can't be used in some special dangers such as poisonous fog. What is sealed in it is only the power of one attack from the Nangong family's predecessor. However, the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe can accompany a person's growth. As for the complete set of immortal treasures that Song Xiu lost to you, how many cultivators like you have a preference for the Dao of Cooking? In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, its value is not even comparable to a few Tier Five resources! "Zu Qingbo said.
"That may be the case, but how many powerful poisonous fog and water can one encounter in one's life? Moreover, even if I do encounter these things, I still have the Emei Ring to use. As for the complete set of immortal treasures, it just so happens that I have a preference for the Dao of Cooking. In my eyes, their value is not something a mid-level immortal treasure can compare to, let alone a low-level immortal treasure! If you want to win back so many things, one Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe is definitely not enough! "
Gu Zheng did not relent. He knew that with his current cultivation level, defeating Zu Qingbo would not be a problem. Zu Qingbo was giving away resources by making a bet with him. However, if Zu Qingbo wanted to use the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe as a wager, his wishful thinking was a bit too much.
"Then what do you want me to add in?" Zu Qingbo frowned.
Gu Zheng originally wanted to ask if Zu Qingbo had anything that could be used to repair the Chaos Tower, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. It would not be too late to ask after meeting the higher-ups of the Kunlun Sect.
"If you want to add in immortal treasures, we will calculate separately. If you want to add in resources, fifteen special grade resources or one hundred and fifty Tier Five resources! This is already considered very little. Let's not talk about the immortal treasures that I won from you. Just the immortal treasures that I won from you are worth ninety Tier Five resources! "
In fact, Gu Zheng did not ask for much. However, if the other party could not produce it, it would be useless no matter how much he asked. It was better to ask for something that he felt the other party could bear.
Zu Qingbo thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and took out the equivalent of one hundred and fifty Tier Five resources! Apart from the two brothers, Song Xiu and Song Bai, the rest of the princes of the Kunlun Sect all had spatial immortal treasures.
Zu Qingbo's storage bracelet was nearly empty after he took out the equivalent of a hundred and fifty Grade 5 resources! This was only because he was the number one person in the Kunlun Sect. If it were the other princes, they would not have been able to take out so many resources at once.
"Alright, you have taken out the bet. I don't need you to suppress your strength. Let's not use immortal treasures. Let's fight with our real strength!"
The onlookers were so agitated that they wanted to die. Even Luo Jin, who had seen Gu Zheng in action before, jumped in fright when he heard him say this.
"This …"
"Is Master Gu alright? He doesn't need Fellow Daoist Zu to suppress his cultivation? "
"By the way, do any of you know Master Gu's cultivation level?"
"I don't know! According to his age, even if Emei Sect cultivates him vigorously, the mid-fourth layer should be the limit, right? "
"To dare to make such a bet with others, is Sect Leader Gu really crazy?"
No one was optimistic about Gu Zheng's chances. Zu Qingbo frowned. "Are you really sure you don't need me to suppress my cultivation level? I want to ask you, what is your cultivation level? "
"Do you really need to suppress your cultivation level when fighting with someone of the same level?"
Gu Zheng's indifferent answer drew gasps from the crowd.
"Is there any justice in this?"
"How is that possible? Master Gu isn't bluffing, is he? "
"Late-fifth layer cultivation level? How old is he?"
"If Master Gu isn't bluffing, then he's a genius!"
The onlookers exclaimed. The princes of the Kunlun Sect all stared at Gu Zheng with wide eyes, sizing him up as if he were a monster.
"Good, you're getting more and more different. No wonder I can feel a sense of pride from you! It seems I'll have to be careful with this bet! "
Zu Qingbo stared at Gu Zheng with a cautious gaze.
"I'll be careful too. Let's get ready!"
As soon as Gu Zheng finished speaking, the onlookers took the initiative to retreat, leaving a large space for the two of them.
"Master Gu, do you want to use a weapon or not?" Zu Qingbo asked.
"No need. My weapons are all Immortal Artifacts," Gu Zheng said.
"It's up to you whether you want to use them or not. But let me tell you, I know how to use them."
Zu Qingbo took out a gold-handled Buddhist whisk from his storage bracelet. The Buddhist whisk with a golden handle was twice as long as a normal whisk. Although it wasn't an Immortal Artifact, it shone with a cold light. One could tell at a glance that it was no ordinary item.
"Let's begin!"
Seeing that Zu Qingbo was in position, Gu Zheng immediately rushed at him.
Zu Qingbo charged at Gu Zheng. He waved the Buddhist whisk in his hand, releasing his inner strength. It formed a ring the size of a bowl and flew at Gu Zheng.
Zu Qingbo's inner strength had long been purified. The red ring made a sharp sound as it sliced through the air. It had the ability to cut like a wind blade.
Gu Zheng tilted his head, and the wind blade brushed past his ear. But in the next moment, his brows furrowed tightly! The wind blade that missed did not disappear. It was like a boomerang, flying back at Gu Zheng!
Gu Zheng dodged again. He dodged the ring, but it did not disappear. It flew at him again.
At the same time, Zu Qingbo waved his Buddhist whisk again and released four more rings.
"What a powerful technique!"
Gu Zheng applauded. Zu Qingbo's rings were probably some kind of immortal technique that had been modified and could be used through inner strength.
It had to be said that Zu Qingbo was really powerful. With just the rings alone, he could easily defeat ninety percent of the experts at the same level without the influence of immortal artifacts. After all, it was easy to imagine how much of a hindrance the five rings could bring to the enemy.
"Is it powerful? Your movement technique is not bad either! "
Zu Qingbo shouted. Gu Zheng's strength had caught his attention. Under the siege of the five rings, Gu Zheng had managed to evade them all by relying on his movement technique. It was daunting but not dangerous.
"Whoosh!"
At a suitable distance, Zu Qingbo raised his palm and pushed it at Gu Zheng. However, the inner strength he pushed out was not the wind from his palm, but the shape of a sharp sword. Its speed was astonishing!
With a flash of the Ethereal Illusion Technique, Gu Zheng dodged the sword formed by his inner strength. However, one of the rings cut his arm, leaving a bright red mark.
The reason why Gu Zheng was strong was because he possessed various Celestial Arts and Celestial Skills. However, when he was sparring with Zu Qingbo, there were some Celestial Arts and Celestial Skills that were inconvenient for him to use. Otherwise, the spectators would be able to tell! For example, the Five Elements Immortal Technique. Once it was used, it would definitely be noticed. However, just because it was inconvenient didn't mean that it couldn't be used. Some immortal skills could be used only once.
Despite the many restrictions on himself, Gu Zheng still dared to fight Zu Qingbo. He relied on his combat techniques and movement technique, as well as the Immortal Slaying Palm Technique, which could end a fight in an instant!
Although his arm was injured, Gu Zheng, who wanted to end the fight as quickly as possible, was getting closer to Zu Qingbo.
Zu Qingbo was very cautious. When he fought with ordinary people, he usually attacked first. However, when he saw Gu Zheng's strange movement technique, he changed his strategy to defense. He wanted to use the rings to delay Gu Zheng, then attack Gu Zheng viciously when the time was right.
However, the timing that Zu Qingbo had been waiting for was still a step later than Gu Zheng's.
"Where are you going to hide?"
At the right time, Gu Zheng, who was already close to Zu Qingbo, activated the Immortal Slaying Palm Technique that he had been secretly preparing.
The Immortal Slaying Palm Technique could be activated immediately, but it could also be activated at will. Activating it immediately didn't have the power to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth, but activating it after activating it was able to mobilize the energy of heaven and earth.
An illusory palm the size of a person flew out, creating a strong wind around it.
Gu Zheng hadn't been preparing the Immortal Slaying Palm Technique for long, so the amount of energy he could mobilize wasn't much. Because of this, even Zu Qingbo hadn't noticed when he was preparing the Immortal Slaying Palm Technique.
Zu Qingbo's eyes widened. When the Immortal Slaying Palm Technique was used, the energy of heaven and earth changed and affected his body. He felt the air around him become sticky and even moving became difficult.
Because the Immortal Slaying Palm Technique didn't mobilize much energy of heaven and earth, Zu Qingbo could still move with difficulty. However, this was the effect Gu Zheng wanted. He only wanted to defeat Zu Qingbo and make the Immortal Slaying Palm Technique look less exaggerated. He didn't want to take Zu Qingbo's life.
"Ah …"
Zu Qingbo screamed in agony. His movement speed slowed, so he couldn't dodge the illusory palm. He was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The Immortal Slaying Palm Technique was an immortal technique. It was also Gu Zheng's most powerful technique that could kill a cultivator! Even though it hadn't been prepared for long, there was no suspense in defeating a late-stage fifth stage cultivator.
Zu Qingbo collapsed, and the ring that had been flying in the air disappeared. He struggled to get up, but Gu Zheng raised his palm and aimed it at his chest. "Fellow Daoist Zu, you've already lost!"
"Bang!"
Zu Qingbo's eyes were filled with unwillingness. He fiercely punched the ground, causing his internal injuries to flare up. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth again.
"What palm technique did you use just now?" Zu Qingbo asked.
"A rare palm technique. It's said that it was modified from an immortal technique," Gu Zheng said calmly.
"None of the battle techniques modified from an immortal technique are easy to cultivate! I thought that with a battle technique modified from an immortal technique, and its power was very strong, I would be able to laugh proudly among cultivators of the same level. I didn't expect that the old saying was true. There's always a mountain taller than the other. I have to say, your battle technique is even stronger! "
The unwillingness on Zu Qingbo's face quickly disappeared, and it was replaced by a kind of loneliness mixed with relief.
"I've won this bet, right?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Of course."
Zu Qingbo got up. He didn't look at the Hundred Poison Impenetrable Robe on the ground, which represented his glory. He walked straight out of the Dragon Battle Plaza.
"Brother Zu!"
Cui Ying and Nangong Chen called out at the same time and caught up with Zu Qingbo.
The Crown Prince Faction didn't look back when they left. They originally had arrogance, but today in the Dragon Battle Plaza, they had suffered an unprecedented setback.
Originally, Gu Zheng had only won them in a bet, and they still had a lot of unwillingness in their hearts. But now that Gu Zheng had defeated Zu Qingbo through martial arts, this moved their hearts greatly! This was a world where strength was respected. They asked themselves honestly, if they encountered Gu Zheng's movement technique and palm technique, they had no chance of winning.
They lost the literary bet, and they weren't a match for him in martial arts. If they were still full of unwillingness, it had to be said that their fighting spirit was unyielding, and it also had to be said that they had a one-track mind.
