Recently, the most discussed topic in the Cultivation World was, of course, related to the Emei Sect.
The Emei Sect's Sect Master was an immortal cultivator and an Immortal Chef. He was going to open an Immortal Chef Store on the Misty Wind Island.
The new Emei Sect's Supreme Elder, Lian Yuxin, was a second-grade blacksmith. She was also in the Misty Wind Island.
The aftermath of the Demon Buster Operation had yet to die down. Now that Emei Sect was in the limelight, it would be strange if there was not a lot of discussion about it.
Many people were looking forward to the Immortal Chef Store and wanted to go and see it. Unfortunately, the Immortal Chef Store had not officially opened, and the Misty Wind Island was not open to the public. If they wanted to go, they had to wait for seven days.
Gu Zheng had returned to the Misty Wind Island from the sect. Meow Meow was still sleeping, so it could not come with him.
However, in order to find another staff for the Immortal Chef Store, Gu Zheng brought Jia Si. Among the Supreme Elders, only Jia Si, who was a rogue cultivator, did not have the talent to manage the sect.
When Jia Si learned that Gu Zheng wanted him to be a waiter in the Immortal Kitchen Store, and that he had to do some rough work like sweeping the floor and wiping the tables, he happily agreed. For him, these things were trivial. He was already envious of Meow Meow and Lian Yuxin, who could follow Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng only stayed in the sect for a day before returning to the Misty Wind Island. When he came back, a beautiful restaurant had already been built.
"Sect Master, how do you feel?"
Lian Yuxin did not follow Gu Zheng back to the sect. She stayed on the Misty Wind Island and was in charge of supervising and helping. With the help of a late-stage Void Return expert, the construction of the restaurant was indeed fast.
At the same time, because of the participation of an immortal cultivator, the newly built restaurant could be used even though it was just renovated.
"Not bad, I'm very satisfied!"
After walking around the second floor of the restaurant, Gu Zheng smiled approvingly at Lian Yuxin.
"What's the name of the restaurant? I'm still waiting for the Sect Master to name it! "
Lian Yuxin pointed at the clean plaque on the small building.
"Let's call it the House of Great Fragrance!"
Gu Zheng raised his hand and carved the words' Aroma Pavilion 'on the plaque with his immortal energy.
"Now that the inn has been built, it is time to set up the immortal arrays," Gu Zheng said.
The so-called immortal array was to separate the area where the islanders lived from the area where the restaurant was located. Gu Zheng did not want to disturb the islanders' lives just because he had opened a restaurant here. Moreover, he didn't want outsiders to see the temples and immortal fields on the island.
It was not difficult to set up an immortal array that could provide a simple concealment effect. With the three immortal cultivators working together, it was quickly completed.
"This formation can guard against a gentleman but not a villain. I think the head should set the rules of the House of Extreme Fragrance and make some explicit restrictions." Lian Yuxin said.
"That's right. That's what I'm thinking. I'll draw up the rules and menu in the next two days," Gu Zheng said.
Two days later, Gu Zheng had formulated the rules of the Extremely Fragrant Villa. As for the menu that he had long prepared, he wrote it down on a piece of paper in one breath.
"Not bad. There are a total of eighty dishes, twenty kinds of soups, and ten kinds of staple food."
The Artifact Spirit praised, and then set a corresponding price for each kind of food.
"What do you think of the price?" the Tool Spirit asked.
"Not bad. It's not too outrageous," Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"You can add the elemental energy increasing food and the second kind of spirit beast food!" the Tool Spirit said again.
For the time being, Gu Zheng had learned two kinds of spirit beast food from Gokusen.
The first kind of spirit beast food could allow Gu Zheng to control spirit beasts of a certain level.
The second kind of spirit beast food was the kind that Meow Meow and the angry man ate. It belonged to the elemental energy increasing food category, which was aimed at demon cultivators.
"Only these two kinds? Don't you want to add the other kinds? "Gu Zheng asked.
"No, thanks. This is just the 'Immortal Kitchen Store's preliminary test' mission. Two types of food are already quite a lot."
After the Tool Spirit said that, the two of them discussed the details of the menu and decided on the menu.
"Sect Master, Great Master Xin Jing is here!" Yang Zhenling stood under the tree house and shouted.
Gu Zheng flew out of the tree house and saw Great Master Xin Jing, who was standing beside Yang Zhenling with a smile on his face.
"Great Master Xin Jing looks happy. I guess the ingredients are ready, right?" Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"Amitabha. I'm happy to see you. I've prepared the ingredients that I used to cook food. Also, I'm happy for the righteous sects! Sect Master Gu represents the Emei Sect, and you're an Immortal Chef. Once your Immortal Kitchen Store opens, the righteous sects will benefit from it! "Great Master Xin Jing said with a smile.
"Haha …"
Gu Zheng laughed. "Why do I feel that Great Master Xin Jing is implying something?"
"Sect Master Gu is very smart. Indeed, I'm implying something!"
Great Master Xin Jing's voice paused, and the smile on his face turned serious. "Although the Immortal Kitchen Store is open to do business, Sect Master Gu knows that! So, I hope that Sect Master Gu can consider the big picture! "
"So, it's because of this matter!" Gu Zheng also became serious. "Don't worry, Great Master Xin Jing. I know what's right and what's wrong. I won't do business with people from the demonic path, no matter how precious the resources they give me are!"
"Amitabha! With Sect Master Gu's words, I'm relieved. On behalf of the entire righteous path, I thank Sect Master Gu for his decision! "Great Master Xin Jing said.
"Let's go to my Immortal Chef Little Store. Great Master Xin Jing will be the first customer," Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"I'm honored. Sect Master Gu, please!" Great Master Xin Jing said.
The tree house was not far from the Extreme Fragrance Little Building. Gu Zheng and Great Master Xin Jing chatted as they walked. Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the little building.
"Antique, very good. The two words' Extreme Fragrance 'remind me of the Extreme Fragrance Transformation! "
As Great Master Xin Jing sighed with emotion, the group entered the Extreme Fragrance Little Building.
The Yang family's sister, who was originally in the little building, immediately served the island's specialty, the Fog Wind Tea, when she saw that there were guests.
After drinking a cup of hot tea, Great Master Xin Jing took out two bags of ingredients from his storage belt.
"This big bag contains the ingredients for the food cultivation. This small bag contains twenty percent of the total value of the ingredients for Sect Master Gu," Great Master Xin Jing said.
Gu Zheng nodded and accepted the big and small bags. "Wait for a moment. I'll go and cook the food cultivation for you now."
"Thank you for your trouble, Sect Master Gu," Great Master Xin Jing said.
Gu Zheng went to the kitchen and opened the big bag. He immediately understood what kind of food cultivation Great Master Xin Jing had used in the past.
The so-called food cultivation was food that was cooked with food or medicine. This kind of food was different from ordinary food. It had great medicinal value! Of course, it had to be great to a certain extent before it could be called a food cultivation.
The food cultivation that Great Master Xin Jing had used in the past could be considered to increase his elemental energy. Among the ingredients that he gave Gu Zheng, three were middle-grade ingredients, five were ordinary ingredients, and two were second-grade ingredients.
Gu Zheng was not sure what kind of elemental energy increasing food cultivation the Immortal Chef had used these ingredients to make. However, to him, these ingredients were enough for him to make a high-grade elemental energy increasing food cultivation.
After all, when he returned to the sect from the Shu Ruins, Gu Zheng was already able to make a high-grade elemental energy increasing food cultivation using two middle-grade ingredients and fourteen ordinary ingredients.
However, Gu Zheng would not make a high-grade elemental energy increasing food cultivation for Great Master Xin Jing. He would only make a middle-grade elemental energy increasing food cultivation. Furthermore, although Gu Zheng would use all the ingredients that he gave him, he would also take a large portion of each ingredient as a commission.
After Gu Zheng took the commission, the huge pile of ingredients that Great Master Xin Jing had given him had shrunk by half.
"Great Master Xin Jing, actually, I really don't want to take your commission because I don't like it at all! However, back then, I made up the recipe for the ingredients for Shu Mountain. Later, I even made a profit from Kunlun. This is already something I can't turn back from! I can't use your ingredients to make a high-grade elemental energy increasing food cultivation. If Shu Mountain Sect and Kunlun hear about this, how am I going to face them? What can I do? I am also in despair! "
Gu Zheng's face was filled with pain and resentment. However, he still put the commission into the Chaos Space without hesitation.
"It's a pity that high-grade elemental energy increasing food cultivation is no longer effective for me. Otherwise, it would be nice to make one for myself."
Looking at the ingredients that needed to be processed, Gu Zheng shook his head helplessly.
Although the effects of the elemental energy increasing food cultivation had slowed down through Gu Zheng's hands, Gu Zheng was an Immortal Chef who did not lack resources. He still made a lot of food cultivation increasing food cultivation for himself. In the end, he still ended up in his current state.
However, the elemental energy increasing food cultivation was only the most basic type of food cultivation. For high-grade food cultivation like the elemental core food cultivation and the Immortal Fruit food cultivation, once they reached high-grade, even if one ate them multiple times, the effects would not decrease.
With Gu Zheng's current cultivation, it was very easy for him to achieve the Extreme Aroma Transformation. However, even the cleverest housewife could not cook without rice. If the ingredients used in a food cultivation were mostly medicinal ingredients, they were not suitable for the Extreme Aroma Transformation. In such a situation, there was nothing he could do.
The ingredients that Master Xin Jing provided were more medicinal ingredients than other ingredients. Moreover, the medicinal ingredients themselves did not taste very good. Hence, the Extreme Aroma Transformation did not appear.
"If I can use these ingredients to create the Extreme Aroma Transformation, my cultivation will definitely rise to another level. Isn't this a type of turning something rotten into something magical?" Gu Zheng thought to himself.
"Sect Master, is the food cultivation done?"
The kitchen was a suite. The processing of the ingredients was done in the outer room and the cooking was done in the inner room. At this moment, when she heard Gu Zheng taking the food out of the wok, Lian Yuxin asked.
"It's done!"
The moment Gu Zheng finished speaking, Lian Yuxin came in and brought the elemental energy increasing food cultivation out.
"The food cultivation that Sect Master Gu made is very different from the food cultivation that my close friend made!" Master Xin Jing said with a troubled expression as she looked at the food cultivation that Lian Yuxin brought over.
"Was the food cultivation that your close friend made like a bowl of medicinal soup?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.
"That's right. The food that my close friend made was really like a bowl of medicinal soup. But now, Sect Master Gu's food cultivation is as fancy as a platter," Master Xin Jing said.
"Old monk, you really don't know what's good for you! The food cultivation that my Sect Master made is filled with Dao. Do you think that this' color 'is useless? You're wrong. It can increase the medicinal effect of your food cultivation! "Lian Yuxin was unhappy that she dared to question Gu Zheng's food cultivation.
"Don't be rude!" Gu Zheng looked at Lian Yuxin angrily.
"I see. I've made a fool of myself in front of Sect Master Gu and Almsgiver Lian," Master Xin said.
"It's nothing. I can understand Master Xin Jing's pain of being tortured by his illness. You're just afraid that I'll make a mistake!"
Gu Zheng understood that when a person was tormented by a disease for hundreds or thousands of years, even a holy monk couldn't help but feel nervous and cautious.
"Thank you for your understanding, Sect Master Gu. I'll take it now."
Master Xin Jing picked up his chopsticks and put a platter of food cultivation into his mouth. He immediately frowned.
"What's wrong now?"
Lian Yuxin's impression of Master Xin Jing had not changed because of Gu Zheng's previous glance. Now that Master Xin Jing was frowning, she immediately felt unhappy.
"Nothing."
Master Xin Jing shook his head with a smile and continued to eat his food cultivation.
However, Master Xin Jing was screaming in his heart. "Is this really the same food cultivation that I used in the past? Why does it look so different? Why does it taste so different? Can this old monk's illness really be cured by this kind of food cultivator? "
When the food cultivation turned into Immortal Core Power, Master Xin Jing's heart sank to the bottom. This was because the Immortal Core Power that the food cultivation turned into was much stronger than the previous one.
With an anxious heart, Master Xin Jing started to absorb the Immortal Core Power that the food cultivation turned into.
After a while, Master Xin Jing's frown deepened. This was because he realized that there was a special Immortal Core Power that was uncontrollably drilling into the walls of his stomach. This was exactly the same as the food cultivation that had caused him to suffer from his illness.
Master Xin Jing soon realized that the special Immortal Core Power that had drilled into the walls of his stomach and stopped at the black spot that represented his illness did not bring him the same pain as before. Instead, it brought him a sense of comfort that he had never felt before. If it were not for the fact that his cultivation was high, he would have screamed out loud.
Master Xin Jing was very excited. As he felt comfortable throughout his body, the black spots that had been on the walls of his stomach for thousands of years showed signs of disappearing.
After about ten minutes.
"Amitabha!"
Master Xin Jing opened his eyes and chanted the name of Buddha. Then, he looked at Gu Zheng emotionally. "Sect Master Gu, thank you, thank you!"
"Are you completely healed?" Gu Zheng asked with a smile.
"Yes, those black spots have all disappeared. I don't have to worry about my lifespan being devoured by them anymore. I can finally contribute to this world for a few more years!"
Master Xin Jing was really excited. He only had two years left to live. Now that his illness had been cured by Gu Zheng, although it would not increase his lifespan, there were still some elixirs in Sanskrit Temple that could extend his lifespan. As long as he did not suffer from any illness, it would not be a problem to extend his lifespan for another ten to twenty years.
"Old monk, you won't doubt my sect master anymore, right?" Lian Yu Xin asked.
"I won't, I won't!" Master Xin Jing laughed and said, "Sect Leader Gu, although there are still two days before you open for business, do you want to do business with me?"
"Sure!" Gu Zheng nodded. Then, he passed the draft of the recipe to Master Xin Jing. "Master, take a look. What do you need?"
There were a total of eighty dishes, twenty types of soups, and ten types of staple food.
The price for each type of food was 120% of the total value of the ingredients.
Apart from the eighty dishes, twenty types of soups, and ten types of staple food, the Extreme Fragrance Villa also provided two types of food cultivation.
There were two types of food cultivation:
The first type: The customer provided the ingredients, and the Extreme Fragrance Villa cooked for them. They would take 22% of the total value of the ingredients as a reward.
The second type: The customer requested a dish that was not on the menu and could not provide the ingredients. Then, the price would be negotiated.
The two types of food cultivation on the menu were the elemental increasing food cultivation and the spiritual beast food cultivation.
The two types of food cultivation were divided into high, middle, and low grades. The price would be calculated based on the percentage of the total value of the ingredients.
Low grade food cultivation would take 24% of the total value of the ingredients as a reward. Middle grade food cultivation would take 26% of the total value of the ingredients as a reward. High grade food cultivation would take 30% of the total value of the ingredients as a reward. Of course, this was based on the premise that the customer provided the ingredients themselves. If the customer did not provide the ingredients and the Extreme Fragrance Villa was responsible for everything, they would have to pay the price of the ingredients as a reward.
Furthermore, the different grades of food cultivation would produce different effects under different circumstances. This was also indicated on the menu.
In addition, there were two notes on the title page of the menu. They were: No credit and no takeout for the food cultivation.
It was understandable that no credit was allowed. The ban on takeout was to prevent people from bringing the food cultivation to people that Gu Zheng did not want to sell it to.
As for those who ordered the elemental increasing food cultivation and wanted to use it with the elemental gathering array, what would they do if they were not allowed to take it out? This was actually very easy to solve. As long as the person who ordered the food dripped a drop of their blood into the food cultivation, the food cultivation would become an exclusive food cultivation! Other than the owner of the blood, the effects would not change. Other people would not have the same effects.
"Master, what would you like to order?"
Seeing that Master Xin Jing was silent after reading the menu, Lian Yuxin asked 'enthusiastically'.
"I'm thinking, should I try Sect Master Gu's delicacies today or come another day?" Master Xin Jing said.
"Why not choose a day? Since I'm here today, I'll try it today!"
Lian Yuxin hurriedly said. She was afraid that Master Xin Jing would find an excuse to not eat after seeing the price.
"Benefactor Lian, you're thinking too much. It's not that this old monk can't afford this meal. It's just that this old monk's spirit beast food cultivation is useful for this old monk's mount. However, this old monk's mount is not by my side. I'm thinking whether I should eat now or wait until the day the Immortal Kitchen opens. First, I'll support Sect Master Gu, and second, I'll ask Sect Master Gu to make a high-grade spirit beast food cultivation for my mount," Master Xin Jing said.
"This is up to Master Xin Jing. Come whenever Master Xin Jing wants to!"
Gu Zheng faintly smiled. He did not think like Lian Yuxin that Master Xin Jing was making excuses because he could not afford the food.
"Alright, then this old monk will wait until the day Sect Master Gu opens the Immortal Kitchen. Then, this old monk will come and support Sect Master Gu!"
Master Xin Jing stood up and bid farewell to Gu Zheng.
After sending Master Xin Jing off, Gu Zheng looked at Lian Yuxin and said, "After the Immortal Kitchen opens, don't act like today again. It's understandable that Master Xin Jing would have doubts. Also, it's up to the guests whether they want to eat or not. We're not an ordinary restaurant, so there's no need to persuade them! "
Seeing Gu Zheng's serious expression, Lian Yuxin stuck out her tongue and said, "Yes, Sect Master!"
