In the angry man's energy center, there were 19 different colored inner cores floating. Gu Zheng tried to invade the inner core with his Divine Thought again, but the situation was the same as before. Due to the evil aura, the inner core had a strong resistance to Divine Thought.
Previously, Gu Zheng was worried that invading the inner core with his Divine Thought would cause harm to the angry man, so he withdrew his Divine Thought when he felt the strong resistance. If he wanted to feel the evil aura more deeply, he couldn't withdraw so easily this time. Therefore, Gu Zheng didn't withdraw his Divine Thought, nor did he try to invade the inner core forcefully. He maintained a motionless state and used his Divine Thought to carefully feel the evil aura in the angry man's inner core.
Disgust, anger, frustration, melancholy, all kinds of negative feelings swept over Gu Zheng like waves while he was maintaining his Divine Thought.
Gu Zheng could feel the evil aura more deeply, but the current situation was like sailing against the current. If he didn't try to invade the inner core forcefully, he had to end this feeling because he couldn't stand the interference of these negative feelings.
"Angry man, I'm going to use my Divine Thought to invade your inner core forcefully. When you feel that you can't take it anymore, tell me to stop. Do you understand? It doesn't matter if you get hurt, as long as it's not too severe. I have to understand the evil aura more deeply. I feel that this level of exploration is still unable to touch the true source of the evil aura, "Gu Zheng said with his Divine Thought.
"Master, I understand. Go ahead!" The angry man nodded.
Gu Zheng compressed his Divine Thought even more and pierced it into the angry man's inner core.
There was still a strong resistance in the angry man's inner core, but this resistance was weakened by Gu Zheng's Divine Thought.
"Ugh …"
Sure enough, as Gu Zheng's Divine Thought advanced, the angry man let out a painful groan.
Gu Zheng didn't care about the angry man's pain. He just kept going forward. After all, he could still withdraw when he shouted to stop.
The angry man's pain didn't last for long. When Gu Zheng's spiritual will finally came into contact with the source of the evil energy, the man's pain also disappeared.
In Gu Zheng's eyes, the source of the evil aura was like a gray fog. When he really came into contact with it, he didn't feel the surge of negative emotions like before.
Gu Zheng tried to use his spirit sense to touch the source of the Evil Qi. Although his movements were very gentle, the angry man screamed and fell to the ground. However, it was a good thing that Gu Zheng managed to put some distance between his Divine Sense and the Evil Qi Origin in time, so the angry man's pain did not continue.
"It seems that the idea of using Divine Thought to directly eliminate the Evil Qi has failed. The Divine Thought of the Evil Qi's origin cannot be touched at all." Gu Zheng lamented.
"Angry man, circulate your inner core now and try to cultivate normally!" Gu Zheng said.
"Master, your Divine Thought is in my inner core. If I circulate my inner core to cultivate, your Divine Thought will be damaged!" The angry man said anxiously.
"It's okay. Just don't circulate too much. I just want to see the changes in the Evil Qi when you circulate," Gu Zheng said.
After hearing Gu Zheng's words, the angry man, who was relieved, immediately entered a state of cultivation. However, at this time, his breathing was very careful and the inner core in his dantian circulated very slowly.
"It's really like this!"
When the angry man started to cultivate, Gu Zheng discovered the "true face" of the Evil Qi Origin.
Whether it was the Immortal Power Ball in an Immortal Cultivator's body or the inner core in a Demon Cultivator's body, under normal circumstances, they were one with the master and would circulate according to the master's thoughts.
Eighteen of the inner cores in the angry man's body were produced unexpectedly. Although they were used by the angry man, they did not really belong to him.
Before receiving the special ingredient reward, Gu Zheng did not know much about the Evil Qi in the angry man's inner core. In his opinion, the Evil Qi in the angry man's inner core was one with him. It would be very difficult to separate the two.
However, when Gu Zheng saw those special ingredients, his opinion changed. After all, he knew the characteristics of those ingredients very well. Based on those ingredients, he deduced the most reliable food therapy method. It required the angry man and the Evil Qi to not really merge into one. Or it could be said that their fusion had not reached a certain level.
Sure enough, the fusion did not reach a particularly deep level. When the angry man circulated his inner core to cultivate, the Evil Qi Origin in the inner core was transforming the Immortal Core Power absorbed by the inner core.
For example, the original inner core should be an 'inanimate object'. When the angry man cultivated, it would naturally absorb the Immortal Core Power and transform it into Immortal Power to strengthen itself. However, the angry man's inner core was now a genuine 'living object'. It was the opposite of a normal inner core.
Due to the existence of the Evil Qi Origin, the Immortal Core Power absorbed by the angry man would be transformed into Immortal Power to strengthen the inner core. Originally, this step should have been completed by the entire Inner Core.
The situation caused by the anomaly was that the source of evil energy would gradually become stronger during the process. Sooner or later, it would devour its host, the angry man, and make him lose his mind and rationality, turning him into an out-and-out ferocious beast.
At the same time, it was also because the Evil Qi Origin was not strong enough that it could only passively absorb the Immortal Core Power absorbed by the angry man's inner core. After all, the Evil Qi might only have a kind of instinct and did not even have intelligence. Otherwise, with Gu Zheng's Divine Thought right beside it, it would not have the mind to continue the process of absorbing and transforming the Immortal Core Power.
He had already examined one Neidan, and obtained the answer he wanted. However, Gu Zheng still continued to examine the other eighteen Neidans in the same manner.
Although Gu Zheng was already very careful, the nineteen inner cores were invaded by his Divine Thought one after another. The angry man was in so much pain that he was hovering between life and death.
However, when the angry man found out from Gu Zheng that the Evil Qi in his body could be completely removed, he felt that this little pain was worth it.
Gu Zheng did not perform the food therapy for the angry man that night. He planned to wait until the next morning to do it for the angry man.
Although he already knew what to do, Gu Zheng still wanted to deduce more in order to be absolutely sure. After all, with his understanding of the Evil Qi, if there was even the slightest mistake in this treatment for the angry man, then the Evil Qi, which did not have intelligence, would very likely be stimulated to have intelligence! At that time, it would be impossible to use the same method to treat the angry man.
The next morning, Gu Zheng woke up early. After taking out the special ingredient reward given to him by the Weapon Spirit, he immediately began to prepare the food therapy to cure the Evil Qi.
"Sir, let me help you?"
Meow Meow was very concerned about the angry man. Although she used to ask the angry man to be her sparring partner, after all, both of them were Demonic Cultivators.
"No need, there are not many ingredients this time. I can handle it myself." Gu Zheng smiled slightly.
There were a total of five special ingredients: Primordial Yang Elixir, Flaming Fruit, Roasting Flame Grass, Zhuhuai Meat, and Flaming Blood.
In terms of the grade of ingredients, the five special ingredients were all excellent grade and had the extreme Yang attribute.
Gokusen had once used these five ingredients to cure a Demonic Cultivator friend of his. However, his Demonic Cultivator friend's body was definitely different from the angry man's, and his illness was definitely different from the angry man's. Therefore, it was impossible to cure the Evil Qi in the angry man's Inner Core with only these few ingredients.
The angry man's physique leaned towards Yin. If he purely used the five extreme Yang ingredients to cook the treatment, then the Evil Qi in his body might not be cured, and he himself would have problems first.
In order to deal with the characteristics of the five special ingredients and the situation of the angry man, Gu Zheng, who was treating him because of his illness, picked two more ingredients: Extremely Fragrant Seaweed and Cold Water Safflower.
The Extremely Fragrant Seaweed and Cold Water Safflower were both Ordinary grade ingredients. They were also obtained by Gu Zheng when he was in Shu Ruins. Under normal circumstances, adding two Ordinary grade ingredients to a pile of Excellent grade ingredients would lower the quality of the food! However, there were two sides to everything. Gu Zheng's secondary goal was to use these two Ordinary grade ingredients to lower and neutralize the domineering characteristics of the five extreme Yang ingredients.
After putting the Cold Water Safflower and Extremely Fragrant Seaweed into the ice water, Gu Zheng activated the Water Control Art to make the ice water swirl. At the same time, he used the Advanced Wood Control Art to increase the ice attribute of the Cold Water Safflower and Extremely Fragrant Seaweed.
After a while, the Cold Water Safflower that looked like a pomegranate flower looked even more delicate and alluring. The Extremely Fragrant Seaweed that was originally emerald green became like a jade sculpture.
After soaking the Roasted Flame Grass in the ice water that had been treated with the Cold Water Safflower and Extremely Fragrant Seaweed, Gu Zheng steamed the Burning Flame Blood.
The Burning Flame Fruit had a fiery-red outer shell. After Gu Zheng peeled off the outer shell, he cooked it with the Origin Yang Pill and Zhuhuai Meat. Then, he roasted and ground the flesh of the Inferno Fruit into powder with his True Life Flame.
After the ingredients were preliminarily processed, Gu Zheng took out the Burning Flame Blood and cut it into strips. Meow Meow, who was at the side, let out a sound of saliva swallowing.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Zheng looked at Meow Meow in confusion. Although the Burning Flame Blood was an excellent ingredient, it really didn't smell good. There was only a strong smell of blood.
Although Meow Meow was a beast cultivator, she wasn't like other beast cultivators who were especially infatuated with the smell of blood. To Meow Meow, the smell of blood wasn't like what other beast cultivators called the 'fragrance of blood'. Not only did she not find the smell fragrant, but she even felt a bit of disgust towards it after following Gu Zheng.
"There's a feeling in my bloodline. It seems like this Burning Flame Blood is very delicious!"
As she spoke, Meow Meow couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
"It's not strange!" The artifact spirit said. "The Burning Flame Blood has the bloodline of the Three-legged Golden Crow. It's one of the favorite foods of the Crimson Beast. For Meow Meow, this is a kind of bloodline attraction!"
"So that's how it is. Meow Meow, if you want to eat it, I'll leave a piece for you. In any case, it won't take that much to make food therapy for the Angry Man."
Gu Zheng raised his knife and cut off a quarter of the original Burning Flame Blood Ointment, placing it on a plate at the side.
"Forget it, sir. This smell is too fishy. Although I can't help but drool, I feel nauseous!" Meow Meow said with a bitter face.
"Don't worry! The Burning Flame Blood is actually very fragrant. It's just that the current blood ointment is only in the preliminary stage, so there's only the smell of blood. After the Angry Man's food therapy, I'll make you a dish called Burning Flame Blood Fish Stew. I guarantee that you won't forget it after eating it! "
Gu Zheng's words made Meow Meow's eyes light up. She hurriedly thanked him while drooling.
After cutting the Burning Flame Blood Ointment, Gu Zheng used the Five Elements Immortal Art on the stewed Zhuhuai meat.
The Zhuhuai was also a primitive beast. Although Gu Zheng had never seen it before, he had seen some subspecies with its bloodline in the Shu Ruins. Now, there was still meat of the Zhuhuai's descendants in the primitive space!
"Gulp, gulp, gulp …"
The fiery red soup in the pot was boiling under the continuous activation of Gu Zheng's Five Elements Celestial Art. The Zhuhuai Meat stewing in the pot lost its blood-red color and became as white and tender as a celestial chicken.
"It smells so good!"
Meow Meow's small nose twitched as she watched Gu Zheng cut the Zhuhuai meat into shreds.
When the temperature of the oil was suitable, Gu Zheng put the Burning Flame Grass that he had fished out of the ice water into the pot.
"Boom …"
The temperature of the oil was clearly not at the right temperature, but because of the Burning Flame Grass's characteristics, it ignited a raging flame. At the same time, a slightly choking fragrance wafted out.
The choking fragrance was very strange. It was a little pungent, a little like the fragrance of chili, but it smelled many times better than chili.
After shaking the burning pot a few times, Gu Zheng placed the cut Zhuhuai meat and Burning Flame Blood Ointment in an orderly manner.
"Smells so good, it smells so good!"
Meow Meow kept twitching her nose. After the Burning Flame Blood Ointment entered the pot, not only did it not have the slightest bloody smell, but even the original fragrance of the ingredients in the pot had changed because of its addition.
"I really want to eat it!"
The attraction from the bloodline made Meow Meow salivate like never before.
In fact, even Gu Zheng wanted to eat it, let alone Meow Meow. After all, it was a mixture of several high-quality ingredients stir-fried together.
When he felt that the stir-frying was almost done, Gu Zheng put the Fragrant Seaweed into the pot.
"Phew …"
After the Fragrant Seaweed entered the pot, the raging flame on the pot was extinguished as if it had been blown by the wind. Even the temperature in the pot seemed to have dropped a little. However, after the Fragrant Seaweed entered the pot, the smoke formed by the Fragrant Seaweed also accelerated and floated up to the top of the pot.
After shaking the pot a few more times, Gu Zheng also put the cold water safflower into the pot. After about ten seconds of stir-frying, Gu Zheng added a small spoonful of the soup that he had used to stew the Zhuhuai meat.
"Boom …"
After the small spoonful of soup entered the pot, the pot rumbled and the Fragrant Seaweed White Mist, which was like a mushroom cloud, completely shrouded the top of the pot.
Gu Zheng placed the food in the pot on a plate and closed the lid while still using the Five Elements Immortal Art to stimulate the food inside. The Fragrant Seaweed White Mist above the plate didn't disperse, as if it was urgently trying to find a home.
After serving the food to the angry man, Gu Zheng immediately opened the lid. At the same time, without waiting for the Fragrant Seaweed White Mist to appear, he said, "Now, hurry up and eat the entire plate of food!"
While Gu Zheng was speaking, the white mist had already enveloped the food, making it impossible for anyone to see what the dish looked like.
In the face of Gu Zheng's instructions, the angry man didn't dare to hesitate. He didn't even use his chopsticks as he directly picked up the plate and poured the food, which was still wrapped in the white mist, into his mouth.
"After you eat it, start cultivating. If you feel any pain, you have to bear with it!"
"Yes, Master!"
Seeing that Gu Zheng was extremely serious, the angry man didn't dare to be careless. He didn't even carefully taste the food and quickly sat down cross-legged.
"Ugh …"
The angry man had just sat down when he let out a muffled groan. The food in his stomach seemed to have a mysterious energy that rushed towards his dantian. The Inner Core hidden in his Dantian seemed to have sensed danger and started to tremble on its own.
"Sir, what's the hurry?"
Although Meow Meow knew that Gu Zheng had his reasons for letting the angry man sit, it was still curious.
"This is food therapy. I'm treating him, not letting him enjoy delicious food. In this food therapy, the Extreme Fragrance Transformation is very important. It can only be maximized when the Extreme Fragrance Transformation is in the stomach of an angry man, "Gu Zheng said.
At the same time, in the angry man's stomach, the white mist had completed its fragrant transformation. The thing it transformed into was as round as the sun in the sky.
"Ugh!"
From the moment the food entered his stomach, the angry man's groans were very frequent. Although Gu Zheng had already used ice-attribute ingredients to neutralize the characteristics of the Extreme Yang ingredients, the angry man's body was still a little unbearable when faced with the Extreme Fragrance Transformation of the food.
If the angry man couldn't take it, the evil energy hidden in his Inner Core was even more unbearable. It produced a resistance force to resist the invasion of the Extreme Yang aura.
However, the angry man was instructed by Gu Zheng to endure the pain and cultivate.
As the angry man's Inner Core rotated, the Extreme Yang aura surged into his Inner Core like Immortal Essence.
At this moment, the eighteen Inner Cores belonging to the outsider were all experiencing the same scene. As the Extreme Yang aura surged in, the original evil energy was forced to continuously compress, like a rapidly shrinking snowball under the sun.
The evil energy in the eighteen Inner Cores was unwilling to be eliminated. It was like a trapped beast, crazily attacking the Inner Core.
To a large extent, the angry man's Inner Core and his Inner Core could be considered as one. The collision of the evil energy caused him to immediately suffer a backlash. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth and slowly turned into blood flowing out of his seven orifices! His body was trembling and he appeared to be on the verge of collapse. However, he remembered Gu Zheng's words. He was resisting the pain.
Finally, the evil energy hidden in the eighteen Inner Cores dissipated under the continuous influx of the Extreme Yang aura.
At this moment, the angry man, who had been suffering for a while, finally got rid of the intense pain and felt a sense of comfort throughout his body. This was the feeling of being cured of a serious illness.
Not only that, but the eighteen Inner Cores, which had lost the Extreme Yang aura, had become deeper and purer in color.
Gu Zheng, who was calculating the time in his heart, greeted the angry man and immediately probed the angry man's body with his spiritual consciousness.
The Extreme Yang aura that the angry man had been afraid of was finally gone. When he approached the angry man's Inner Core, he no longer felt that extremely uncomfortable feeling.
The nineteen Inner Cores of different colors floated in the angry man's Dantian. They emitted a magnificent and unique aura.
