After listening to Lian Yuxin's explanation to the Immortal Chef, Gu Zheng smiled and said, "I remember that you still have four Fairy Fruits, right? Give them to me, and I'll make you a delicious dish. "
"Sect Master, even with my cultivation base, I can only eat one Fairy Fruit a month. You want to use four to make me a dish?"
Even though she said that, Lian Yuxin still handed the four Fairy Fruits over.
"Didn't you say that the Immortal Chef can turn something rotten into something magical?"
Gu Zheng took the Fairy Fruit. After crushing the outer shell, he placed it in his palm and roasted it with his' true life flame. '
"You can't roast the Fairy Fruit. It'll spoil!"
Lian Yuxin screamed. Roasting the Fairy Fruit was taboo. Not only would it not improve the Fairy Fruit's medicinal effect, but it would also make it poisonous.
"If you keep talking, go back to the cultivation room and stay there!"
Gu Zheng impatiently glared at Lian Yuxin. Only then did Lian Yuxin calm down.
Seeing that Lian Yuxin didn't ask anything, Gu Zheng said, "Tell me about the Great Desolate Land."
"Sect Master, what kind of things do you want to know?"
Lian Yuxin looked at Gu Zheng carefully.
"There are all kinds of things about the Great Desolate Land. Tell me everything you can think of," Gu Zheng said.
"Okay!"
Lian Yuxin began her explanation, and Gu Zheng continued to process the ingredients.
The delicious dish that Gu Zheng wanted to make for Lian Yuxin was just an idea that came to his mind when he saw her eating the Fairy Fruit. The dish he wanted to make was not a dish passed down by Gokusen. It was a dish that he created based on his understanding of the ingredients.
Knowing some of Gu Zheng's thoughts, the Tool Spirit smiled and said, "Good luck. I'm looking forward to the dish you make this time."
Gu Zheng also smiled. "In the past, I always wondered how Lord Gokusen created the food cultivation method. It's really magical! How was he able to turn some seemingly unrelated ingredients into food cultivators with such powerful medicinal effects? Could it be that it's really like how Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs? Through repeated attempts, did he discover an unusual path? "
"What about now?" The artifact spirit asked with a smile.
"Now, I have long understood that Lord Gokusen has truly mastered an extraordinary Dao. However, this Dao is not a Dao, but a Dao of food and drink! In the past, you asked me to make chicken blood soup to treat anorexia, and you asked me to make food therapy to treat people with incomplete taste buds. At that time, I could be said to be a noob. But now, if you ask me to do the same thing again, I will feel that it is too simple. Because I know the characteristics of each food, I know the cause of the disease, I have a Dao in my heart! "Gu Zheng sighed.
Ever since Gu Zheng comprehended the Dao of Food and Drink, his understanding of Dao had been deepening. Especially during the time when he was in the Heavenly Snail Cave, his breakthrough in food cultivation and new understanding of "color, fragrance" had deepened his Dao.
Medicine and food originally came from the same source. Understanding the characteristics of food, knowing which ingredients to match with which ones, and what kind of effect would result. As an immortal cultivator, he could examine a person's body, easily find the focus of the disease, analyze the cause of it, and make appropriate food therapy. It was really not a difficult thing.
For example, when Gu Zheng wanted to make a delicious dish this time, he saw Lian Yuxin eat the Fairy Fruit and knew what effect she wanted. On the basis of understanding the characteristics of the Fairy Fruit, he recalled what ingredients he had that could be matched with the Fairy Fruit to enhance the effect! This was actually like a doctor taking the pulse and knowing the patient's condition. What was the difference between this and the food cultivation method created by Gokusen?
Only the egg yolk was taken, mixed with ant sugar, and beaten into egg liquid.
The spring water from the Earth Vein boiled the Silver Frost Leaf, kneaded the Sky Noodles mixed with the Fairy Rice Flour into dough, and used the Wood Control Spell to soak the dough.
Fried the Beauty Flower with an appropriate amount of sesame oil to make the Beauty Flower Oil.
Boiled the Blue Star Fruit and pounded it into mud.
After the Fairy Fruit was roasted, the oil was removed and made into powder.
"Sect Leader, can I talk about it later? I feel that I can't concentrate, "Lian Yuxin said pitifully.
Originally, Lian Yuxin was indeed talking about the things in the Untainted Land, but seeing Gu Zheng handling the ingredients smoothly, she really couldn't continue. Especially when the Beauty Flower Oil was made, the charming fragrance of the flower made her, who swallowed her saliva several times, completely want to give up talking about it.
"Yes," Gu Zheng said.
"Sect Leader, can I ask you a question?"
Lian Yuxin smiled at Gu Zheng ingratiatingly.
"What's the question?" Gu Zheng looked at Lian Yuxin.
"Sect Leader, why do you remove the oil of the Fairy Fruit? It's a good thing! "
Lian Yuxin asked cautiously. She was afraid that Gu Zheng would be angry.
"It's a good thing, but if it's used in the dish I'm going to cook, it will have a hindering effect."
Gu Zheng explained. Lian Yuxin, who didn't dare to ask more, stopped while she was ahead. She was really looking forward to the delicious dish Gu Zheng was going to cook.
"Today, I finally know that watching an Immortal Chef process ingredients is a kind of enjoyment! That kind of smooth movement, that kind of focused expression, it's really delicious! "Lian Yuxin said inwardly.
Previously, Lian Yuxin still had some doubts about the delicious dish. However, after watching Gu Zheng process the ingredients, all her doubts disappeared, leaving only anticipation.
"The last ingredient needs to be processed."
Gu Zheng took out several fruits that looked like date coconuts from the Untainted Space.
Seeing that the fruits Gu Zheng took out were the Leakless Fruits from the Blood Tide Island, the Tool Spirit's face changed. It screamed, "Remove the disgusting ingredients!"
"Ugh!"
Gu Zheng was speechless. "Even if you don't tell me, I know how to do it. I don't want to wait until I have to face a crazy tigress!"
Although the Leakless Fruit was useful for both men and women, it was an ingredient with extreme Yang energy. After removing some of the bad ingredients, it could be used to complement the Fairy Fruit, which had extreme Yin energy. It would create a kind of Yin and Yang energy complementary effect.
After removing the core of the Leakless Fruit, Bu Fang used the Water Control Art to control the Earth Vein's spring water and rinsed it several times. After that, the preliminary processing of the ingredient was completed.
Gu Zheng added the egg liquid, flower oil, Blue Star Fruit Puree, and Fairy Fruit Powder. After mixing them well, he arranged them into a flatbread and placed them on a plate.
Then, Gu Zheng smeared the Milk Ginseng liquid on the flatbread, sprinkled the Leakless Fruit Puree on it, and smeared a layer of Queen Bee Nectar on it. Then, he covered the plate and put it into the dry pot. Using the Fire Control Art to stimulate the flame, he slowly roasted it.
Gu Zheng used a lot of ingredients to make this delicious dish. Eggs, Ant Candy, Heavenly Noodles, Fairy Fruit, Leakless Fruit, Sesame Oil, Immortal Rice Flour, Beauty Flower, Silver Frost Leaf, Blue Star Fruit, Milk Ginseng Liquid, and Queen Bee Nectar.
"Is this a food cultivation?" Gu Zheng asked himself.
"I think so!" Gu Zheng answered himself.
Gu Zheng didn't purposely shape the ingredients for the food cultivator's cooking this time. He simply used his Dao of Conformity to cook the food cultivator. As for what it would look like in the end, Gu Zheng didn't want to know at all.
Although the food cultivation was cooked by Gu Zheng himself, he enjoyed the feeling of cooking with his heart. He didn't look at the result and let the result appear as a surprise.
As the roasting process went on, a sweet milky fragrance floated out from the pot, causing Lian Yuxin's nose to twitch.
"It smells so good!"
Lian Yuxin's nose twitched very quickly. If she wasn't afraid of Gu Zheng's words, she would have wanted to get close to the pot and smell it.
The fragrance was constantly increasing in allure. Lian Yuxin swallowed her saliva from time to time.
"How do you feel?" Gu Zheng opened his eyes and asked.
"Gulp!"
Before opening her mouth, Lian Yuxin couldn't hold back and swallowed her saliva loudly. This made her look at Gu Zheng with embarrassment and said, "It smells so good! The sweet fragrance is hard to describe. It's like the fragrance of oil, but also a milky fragrance. It's like the fragrance of fruits, but also a floral fragrance. It's a very wonderful feeling. Every fragrance is so clear and attractive, but they're also so blended together that it makes one intoxicated! "
Lian Yuxin's voice paused, and then she said with a sad face, "Sect Master, my cultivation base is almost at the late Void Return realm. No matter what, I'm a thousand years old person. Why am I so useless? The saliva in my mouth is secreting a little uncontrollably! When I was in the Desolate Era, one of the two dishes I ate was extremely fragrant, but before I ate it, it wasn't like today! "
Gu Zheng smiled faintly and said, "It's not strange for you to be like this. The so-called cultivation of the Dao is the cultivation of the Dao. The food I cook contains the Dao, so some of your body's functions uncontrollably reacted to the Dao. This is a very normal thing!"
Lian Yuxin was a little surprised. Gu Zheng's words were easy to understand, but why didn't she think of it before? After all, she had also been to the Immortal Kitchen, and she also knew that the food cooked by the Immortal Chefs did indeed contain the mysteries of the Dao.
As if seeing through Lian Yuxin's thoughts, Gu Zheng said, "The Dao transforms into all things, and all things have the Dao."
Lian Yuxin nodded, and the gaze she looked at Gu Zheng with became a little different. "No wonder Sect Master has such a cultivation base at such a young age. Even the Immortal Domain's super divine sense ability is not unreasonable! As the saying goes, if you pay attention to everything, you will learn. Can't it be that there is a Dao everywhere? "
Lian Yuxin seemed to feel that some things that she didn't pay attention to before were noticed by her. And these things that she didn't pay attention to, after thinking about it carefully, seemed to have endless mysteries.
"Sigh!"
Lian Yuxin sighed, feeling deeply regretful. The feeling in her heart was very close to enlightenment, but the strength in her heart was not enough. Just as she entered, she involuntarily left, so she felt something, but she couldn't grasp it.
"Perhaps this is related to the Sect Master's food being too fragrant! It really makes me unable to calm down! "Lian Yuxin said secretly.
The fragrance in the air was extremely strong, but it didn't make people feel tired at all. Lian Yuxin had a feeling that this fragrance was too strong and too light.
At this time, Gu Zheng stopped urging the fire. He lifted the lid of the pot, waved his hand, and dragged the covered plate onto the table with his immortal power.
Both of his hands formed a seal on the plate, and the plate immediately shook violently, as if it wanted to lift the lid.
Gu Zheng understood that the shaking at this time was the final fusion and formation of the ingredients. This kind of strange phenomenon needed his pacification.
His hands approached the plate, and the extremely cold power condensed by the Water Control Seal instantly acted on it. The plate then quieted down, and the original high temperature on the surface also completely disappeared.
"Open it and enjoy!"
Gu Zheng finally said. Lian Yuxin couldn't wait and immediately opened the plate. The white mist that was originally covered by the plate completely entered the food cultivator, as if it had encountered a strong suction force.
The food cultivator had completed its transformation. It, which was originally just a piece of flatbread, had turned into a huge "Fairy Fruit".
On the purple-red surface, there were countless ice crystals and some small Leakless Fruit fragments. It was as if a quarter of it had been cut away. From the top, one could directly see the interior of the Fairy Fruit. There was a completely different milky-white color, and it was emitting an extremely tempting fragrance.
"This, this is a cake?"
There were cakes in the Primordial World, but even the cakes that Yuxin had eaten did not make her so hungry. She could not wait to taste it.
"No, this is no longer a simple cake. This is a food cultivator."
Gu Zheng's solemn voice landed, and the manifestation of the fragrance was born.
"Ouch!"
Lian Yuxin exclaimed. She looked at Gu Zheng with a red face and hurriedly lowered her head.
Gu Zheng also felt embarrassed. If he didn't peek at the result, he wouldn't know the final form of the food cultivator. He also wouldn't know what the manifestation of the fragrance looked like.
At the top of the Fairy Fruit, the manifestation of the fragrance was very interesting. It was clear that there were two tiny figures, one male and one female, doing Yin and Yang intercourse.
"Ahem!"
Gu Zheng cleared his throat. "Yin and Yang intercourse is just a way of reproduction. Don't let your imagination run wild. Hurry up and eat!"
The embarrassed Gu Zheng reprimanded Lian Yuxin. Then, he calmly sat to the side and closed his eyes, not saying anything.
"The Leakless Fruit and the Fairy Fruit actually produced such an extremely fragrant manifestation. This is really unexpected!" Gu Zheng thought to himself.
Seeing Gu Zheng close his eyes, Lian Yuxin thought to herself, "Could it be that he didn't deliberately create those two little things?"
The two tiny figures on the Fairy Fruit had disappeared. Lian Yuxin looked at Gu Zheng suspiciously again. Finally, she couldn't resist the temptation of the sweet fragrance and picked up the Fairy Fruit on the plate.
After taking a bite, Lian Yuxin's beautiful big eyes widened a little. She experienced a very special taste.
First, it was cold and crisp. Then, it was warm and soft. Finally, it was an indescribable sweetness that melted in her mouth.
"It's too delicious!"
Lian Yuxin sincerely expressed her praise for the food. She hurriedly took a second bite of the Fairy Fruit.
"This …"
Lian Yuxin exclaimed. She found that the food in her stomach had turned into a stream of pure immortal energy, which was rushing toward the immortal energy ball in her dantian.
In the Immortal Kitchen Store of the Desolate Wasteland, Lian Yuxin had eaten an extremely fragrant manifestation dish. It had a similar effect, but it couldn't be compared to the Saintess Fruit.
While Lian Yuxin was hesitating whether to taste the delicacy or absorb the immortal energy first, Gu Zheng opened his mouth and said, "Finish the food cultivator first!"
Gu Zheng's voice was very serious. Lian Yuxin didn't dare to hesitate. She quickly swallowed the Fairy Fruit and concentrated on absorbing the immortal energy it brought.
The originally huge and pure immortal energy had already frightened Lian Yuxin. However, when she felt that all the pores in her body had opened and were crazily swallowing the immortal energy in the air, she couldn't help but scream.
"Do you want to suffer a backlash?"
Gu Zheng shouted. At this time, eating food cultivators had to concentrate. Screaming and other actions could easily cause the immortal energy to go berserk and rush to the internal organs.
'If I had known, I would have told her about the characteristics of food cultivators,' Gu Zheng thought.
From Lian Yuxin's previous explanation, Gu Zheng understood that Lian Yuxin didn't know much about Immortal Chefs. Or, it could be said that the Immortal Chefs in her place weren't strong enough to make some dishes.
Lian Yuxin had heard of food cultivators before. However, the effects of food cultivators she mentioned were only able to greatly increase the immortal energy of the user. It didn't have the effect of creating a 'pore vortex'.
Gu Zheng originally thought that Lian Yuxin, as a middle-stage Void Return immortal cultivator, would still have basic calmness. However, who would have thought that she would actually scream at that critical moment! Even if she didn't know much about food cultivators, her understanding of immortal energy should have made her understand that she shouldn't have done such a thing at that time.
Fortunately, Lian Yuxin wasn't injured because of this. Otherwise, Gu Zheng really felt that he would cry because of her stupidity.
Gu Zheng was depressed. Lian Yuxin, who didn't dare to be distracted, was also depressed. Too many things had happened in one day. Especially when Gu Zheng beat her up in the Immortal Realm, it seemed to have pulled down her intelligence a little! When facing Gu Zheng, she couldn't help but become a little slow. Whether it was some words or the scream just now, they were all blurted out. It was so fast that she couldn't even react.
"Gu Zheng, the food you cooked this time has indeed achieved the effect of a food cultivator. This is indeed a food cultivator! Then, name the food cultivator that you created! "
The Artifact Spirit's serious voice suddenly sounded. This made Gu Zheng's heart tremble! Usually, when the Artifact Spirit spoke in such a serious manner, it was when announcing the reward or issuing the mission!
"Usually, there will be a reward for the first thing, such as the first battle beyond the realm, the first breakthrough in the food cultivation method passed down by Gokusen, and so on. Could it be that there's also a reward for the food cultivator this time? "
Gu Zheng's mind raced. He also announced the name of the food cultivator — Female Immortal's Food Cultivator.
"Congratulations to Gokusen's successor for completing the hidden mission 'Self-creation of a Food Cultivator'. Based on the difficulty of the Female Immortal's Food Cultivator, as well as its characteristics and effects, the Artifact Spirit will reward the following items at its discretion."
"Reward: 100 mid-grade immortal essence pills."
"Reward: 3 refining materials from Earth Demons and Xuan Demons."
"Reward: 2 immortal artifacts that can be used to repair the Chaos Tower."
"Reward: 2 pieces of Sky Blue Jade, 2 kilograms of Red Copper Essence, and 2 pieces of Exquisite Crystal."
"Reward: Immortal Skill 'Primordial Wind Dragon Leg Technique'."
"Reward: 1 high-grade immortal peach."
The Artifact Spirit had already distributed the reward to Gu Zheng's Chaos Space. Gu Zheng also cheered in his heart. The reward this time could be said to be generous!
