Gu Zheng took out four ingredients and a few bottles of elixir pills. Today's Elemental Elixir Food Cultivation used an immortal grade resource. It was the five-colored deer meat that he had obtained from the auction in Luxia Town.
Other than the five-colored deer meat, the other three ingredients were all high grade. As for the immortal essence pills, most of them were good grade with a small portion being high grade.
Seeing Gu Zheng take out all the ingredients, Die Ling asked curiously, "Master, the amount of food you're going to make this time seems a bit large?"
"That's right, the amount is indeed a bit large." Gu Zheng smiled.
The amount of food he was going to make this time was indeed large. The two immortal essence pills didn't need to be mentioned as they would eventually turn into immortal essence and wouldn't take up much space.
The main ingredient, five-colored deer meat, needed to be one jin to be considered an immortal grade ingredient. Gu Zheng's five-colored deer meat was exactly one jin.
The three ingredients were: immortal swan egg, immortal bone and purple barley.
The immortal swan egg weighed at least four taels. Although the immortal bone didn't weigh much, the purple barley looked a bit scary, at least one and a half jin.
"Master, can you finish it? If you can't finish it, I'll help you finish it! "
Die Ling stuck out her tongue at Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng knew she was joking. After all, she knew that food couldn't be divided. Although the amount of ingredients was large, it was a necessary amount for this food.
"Just think about it."
Knowing that Die Ling was joking with him, Gu Zheng replied with a fake smile.
"Master, can't you take pity on me?"
Die Ling's big eyes twinkled as she pouted. She looked very pitiful.
"No!"
Gu Zheng laughed heartily, rejecting him mercilessly.
"Master, you're so annoying!" Die Ling rolled her eyes at Gu Zheng.
As for how to get along with each other, Gu Zheng had told Die Ling in the jade slip. Although he was Die Ling's master and Die Ling couldn't be too presumptuous towards him, he didn't want Die Ling to be a timid little maid! She could be herself as long as she didn't go overboard.
"Alright, I'm going to prepare the ingredients."
Gu Zheng's expression returned to normal. He first boiled some water in the pot, then washed the immortal puppet.
The Immortal Flower looked a little like a green onion, and its taste was captivating and spicy.
Gu Zheng plucked the green leaves of the Immortal Stallion and threw them into the boiling pot to cook. Then, he chopped the white roots of the Immortal Stallion into fine powder.
After controlling the Immortal Herb Leaf in the pot with the water controlling technique, Gu Zheng took out the Immortal Herb Leaf and threw it into the pot. Then, he threw 50 good grade immortal essence pills and 20 high grade immortal essence pills into the pot.
The Immortal Essence Pill melted as soon as it entered the pot. It turned into a dense white mist and wanted to fly out of the pot.
Gu Zheng closed the lid of the wok and drew a restriction on the lid to prevent the immortal essence from leaking out. Then, he activated the Five Elements Immortal Arts one after another.
After a while, Gu Zheng stopped and opened the lid of the pot. He saw that the white mist in the pot had disappeared. More than half of the water in the pot had disappeared and turned into a milky white liquid.
The milky white liquid was the liquefied immortal essence. There was a sparkling light flickering in it, which looked very dazzling.
Gu Zheng removed the wok from the fire. Under the vibration of the Five Elements Immortal Ball in his body, an extremely cold air flew out from his fingertips. After acting on the liquefied immortal essence in the wok, it temporarily sealed it.
The five-colored deer meat came from the immortal beast five-colored deer, but its meat was not five-colored. It only had two colors, red and white. The red meat was white, like marble lines, and the white was the fat that spread in the red meat.
The kitchen knife in his hand flashed incessantly, and the sound of hitting the chopping board was dense and regular. Soon, the five-colored deer meat was turned into minced meat under Gu Zheng's kitchen knife.
After putting the minced meat into a bowl, Gu Zheng put the cut immortal alligator white, the yolk of the immortal swan egg, and the salt into it. Then, he used his chopsticks to quickly stir for a while.
The market price of immortal grade ingredients was very expensive. It was expensive because of two reasons. One was the quality of the ingredients, and the other was that it contained traces of the Dao.
The so-called traces of the Dao could be said to be a trace of the Dao. They were very few in number.
There were traces of the Dao in immortal grade ingredients, but whether or not one could comprehend this trace depended on the Immortal Chef's luck! But even so, traces of the Dao were very attractive to Immortal Chefs. After all, a trace of the Dao could be related to many things. The reason was the same as how a melon vine could be connected to a melon.
As of now, Gu Zheng possessed a total of fifteen Immortal Grade resources. However, due to the fact that he had already grasped a portion of the Dao of Food, even though he was fortunate enough to comprehend a trace of the Dao from those Immortal Grade resources, it was a Dao that he had already grasped.
"Master, can traces of the Dao only be comprehended before cooking?"
Die Ling had heard Gu Zheng talk about traces of the Dao before. Now that she saw Gu Zheng was very focused on stirring the minced meat, she couldn't help but be curious.
"Not really. From the beginning of the ingredients, to the processing, to the cooking process, it is possible to comprehend the Dao. However, this kind of thing really depends on luck. Moreover, up until now, the traces of the Dao in these immortal grade ingredients are very shallow. Even if I am lucky enough to comprehend it, it shouldn't be of much use to me. After all, I've already grasped part of the Way of Food and Drink, and these shallow traces give me an indescribable sense of familiarity. This means that even if I've comprehended the Way they represent, it's still within the scope of my grasp. "
Gu Zheng's voice paused for a moment before he continued, "However, nothing is absolute. Some seemingly shallow traces of the Dao might be able to pull out a melon from a melon vine!"
Although Gu Zheng was talking to Die Ling, his eyes were still focused on the minced meat in the bowl. The chopsticks in his hand didn't stop stirring the minced meat for a moment.
Suddenly, Gu Zheng felt as if there was a flash of light in the bowl. Following that, a set of mysterious lines of light appeared in the minced meat. It instantly made him understand something.
"Haha!"
After a flash of understanding, Gu Zheng laughed out loud.
Die Ling saw Gu Zheng's strange laughter and couldn't help but ask, "Master, what's wrong?"
"I saw a flash of light in the bowl just now." Gu Zheng said.
"Why didn't I see it?" Die Ling's eyes widened.
"That is the manifestation of traces of the Dao. Only those who are processing the ingredients can see it." Gu Zheng smiled.
"Master was laughing very happily just now. Could it be that the traces of the Dao led to a melon?" Die Ling asked again.
"It did lead to a melon, but a small one! What it represents should be related to the Dao of improving the quality of ingredients. "
Gu Zheng's voice paused for a moment before he continued, "Although it's just a small melon, it's something that needs to be comprehended. Right now, it's like a seed in my mind. When I go into seclusion again, it's hard to say whether my comprehension of it will allow it to take root and sprout or if I'll only see the inside of the seed."
"Haha!"
Die Ling laughed, "It is already very good to have such a harvest. Master is indeed a person with great fortune!"
"I also didn't expect to have such a harvest."
Gu Zheng smiled and put down the bowl in his hand.
Fortunately, comprehending traces of the Dao was only an interlude in the cooking process of the Dan Elemental Food Cultivator. Now that the venison was processed, it was time to process the purple barley.
With a thought, the purple barley on the chopping board immediately flew into the air between Gu Zheng's palms.
Gu Zheng frowned and a cyclone visible to the naked eye was created. It quickly danced around the purple barley.
Under the effect of the cyclone, the purple skin of the purple barley quickly faded. The cyclone spun again and the milky white purple barley flour immediately fell onto the chopping board, forming a small mountain.
Gu Zheng took a light sniff, and a special smell from the mound of noodles entered his nostrils. It was like the smell of unripe wheat, but it was a hundred times more fragrant.
After digging a hole in the flour pile, he poured in the egg white of the immortal swan egg and the liquefied immortal essence sealed in cold air. Gu Zheng began to knead the dough.
The dough kept changing shape in Gu Zheng's hands. The color changed from the initial pinkish white to a porcelain color.
After making a hole in the middle of the dough, Gu Zheng placed the meat filling in the hole and began to seal it.
"Master, is the food cultivator this time a big meat bun?" Die Ling asked.
"No, it is not a meat bun."
Gu Zheng had already sealed the opening of the dough. As expected, he did not make wrinkles at the opening like he did when making buns.
"It is not a bun, then …"
Before Die Ling finished speaking, she saw Gu Zheng pick up the rolling pin again and immediately said excitedly, "I know, master is going to make meat patties!"
"That's right, meat patties! This is also the best cooking method for this food cultivator. "
The rolling pin quickly rolled under Gu Zheng's palm and a moderately thick flatbread appeared on the chopping board.
Gu Zheng poured oil into the wok. After the oil heated up, he placed the rolled out flatbread into the wok.
The flatbread that looked normal became restless the moment it entered the pan. It was like a fish that wanted to jump out of the pan.
The more effective a food cultivator was, the more restless they would be during the cooking process. Gu Zheng, who was well aware of this, pressed his palm down, and a great pressure pressed the pancake back into the pot.
"Sizzle …"
The sound of frying could be heard. Gu Zheng stretched out his hand and drew a restriction above the pot. With this restriction, it was impossible for Flatbread to jump out of the pot.
Even if it couldn't jump out of the pan, the flatbread was still restless. It shook in the pan at a very high frequency.
Gu Zheng didn't interfere with the flatbread's shaking. As long as it didn't jump out of the pan, it wouldn't affect the effects of the food cultivator. Then, let it shake!
The Eye of Dao closely observed the flatbread's changes. The fire controlling art adjusted the temperature at the right time. The flatbread quickly changed color and a faint meaty aroma began to fill the air.
Gu Zheng waved his hand above the pan. The original restriction was removed. Now that he wanted to flip the food cultivator, the restriction could only be removed temporarily.
"Bang!"
As soon as the restriction was removed, the flatbread jumped up. Unfortunately, it bumped into Gu Zheng's palm and fell heavily into the pan. Gu Zheng shook the pan and smoothly flipped it over.
Gu Zheng didn't draw a new restrictive spell right away. Instead, he poured some oil into the wok and drew the new restrictive spell on the wok again.
"Master, the food cultivator doesn't seem to be so restless!"
Gu Zheng had told Die Ling about the food cultivator's restlessness. Therefore, when she saw the food cultivator's restlessness being suppressed so easily, Die Ling couldn't help but feel curious.
"Food cultivators are different from other food cultivators. Some food cultivators are very restless from the start. Some food cultivators are very restless all of a sudden. The food cultivation that I made today, its restlessness is gradual and gradual! In the first round of flipping, it was restless like this. In the second and third rounds, it will become more restless, "Gu Zheng said.
This time, the elemental core food cultivator was a meat patty. Both sides had to be fried and it had to be rotated three times.
The first round of frying was quickly done. At this time, the meat patty's skin wasn't very brown. When Gu Zheng started frying the other side, the restlessness immediately became more intense! The entire cauldron was shaking, and the seal that Gu Zheng drew on it had turned from formless to tangible. Under the impact of the meat loaf's restless vibration, the seal patterns on the cauldron flickered with a bright light.
At this time, Gu Zheng was very attentively controlling the situation. The fragrance of the five colored deer meat in the air had reached a certain level. It was so fragrant that Die Ling started to swallow her saliva.
The third round of frying was about to begin. Gu Zheng flipped the meat patty over. Just as he drew the restriction, there was a loud explosion. The entire pan flew off the stove.
"Come down!"
Gu Zheng frowned. The world's energy immediately suppressed the pan, causing the two to persist in the air.
The Five Element Immortal Ball in his body trembled. Under the powerful activation of the Water Control Art, the flames in the stove rose up and burned the bottom of the pan.
It only lasted for a few short seconds before the suppressed pot finally landed on the stove. The side of the meat patty that was being fried became even more evenly browned.
"It smells so good!"
Die Ling greedily breathed in the fragrance in the air.
At this moment, the fragrance in the air was no longer purely the fragrance of venison. Whether it was the original fragrance of the bread or the fragrance of the supplementary ingredients in the venison, they had all become rich at this moment. They mixed with the fragrance of the venison, causing people to feel a strong sense of hunger after smelling it.
When the last side of the meat patty was about to be fried, the restlessness once again broke through the restriction on the pan. However, Gu Zheng's cultivation had reached Daluo Jinxian's! In the face of such a situation that even an intermediate gold immortal might not be able to suppress, everything was under his control.
Finally, white mist rose from the fruit and gathered. The elemental core food cultivator had finished cooking.
Gu Zheng walked out of the cave with the meat patty shaped elemental core food cultivator.
There was a square outside each cave. Eating elemental core food cultivator in this open space was better than eating in the cave.
Gu Zheng's fingers kept moving in the air. Mysterious patterns appeared one after another and then disappeared into the void. Gu Zheng had laid down several restrictions on the plaza to prevent others from peeking into the area.
Even though he chose the elemental core food cultivator conservatively, Gu Zheng knew how terrifying it was. It would still shock the residents of Floating Sky Mountain.
"Master, hurry up and eat! Actually, even if they can't see the situation in the square, they can tell from the surge of immortal energy how terrifying the food cultivator you're eating is. "Die Ling said.
"I'm not in a hurry, but you're in a hurry." Gu Zheng couldn't help but smile.
"How can I not be in a hurry? I can't eat it, so I can only watch master eat it! "Die Ling said pitifully.
"Alright, look at how pitiful you are!"
Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he shrugged, "You don't have anything to eat, and there's nothing you can do about it. Who asked you to still be in the growth stage, and can't enjoy delicious food without restraint?"
"It's not that I can't eat it. I've already eaten some of master's Exploding Beef Bones. As long as I don't eat too much, I can eat a little less!" Die Ling looked at Gu Zheng with a fawning look.
"Is there really no problem?" Gu Zheng asked.
"There's really no problem. I won't do something that doesn't affect my growth for food! If master's food wasn't so fragrant, I wouldn't eat it at all. I have a bottom line! "
Die Ling was still looking at Gu Zheng with a flattering smile on her face.
Gu Zheng rolled his eyes at Die Ling and then threw a menu to her, "Pick! See what you like to eat. You can pick one dish and I'll make it for you when I'm free! "
"Wise and mighty master, can you indulge your smart and cute little Die Ling and let me order two dishes?"
The pitiful Die Ling tugged on Gu Zheng's arm and gently swung it back and forth.
"As long as you don't eat too much, two dishes are fine too!" Gu Zheng pinched Die Ling's cheeks.
"Thank you master!"
Die Ling was so happy that she jumped up.
"That's right master, after you eat the food, will your cultivation advance again?" Die Ling asked again.
"I estimate it will advance!"
Gu Zheng was currently at the sixth level 20% of Gokusen Technique, which was equivalent to Daluo Jinxian initial stage. When his Gokusen Technique passed the sixth level 30%, he would be equivalent to Daluo Jinxian middle stage. This would be Gu Zheng's second time consuming an elemental elixir made with immortal grade ingredients. Now that he had a better understanding of the medicinal effects, he was confident that he could use this elemental elixir elixir to break through the door of Gluttony Celestial Art Level 6, 30%.
"That's great!"
Die Ling cheered that Gu Zheng's cultivation could advance.
"Alright, I'm going to start eating the meat patties!"
Gu Zheng smiled at Die Ling and picked up the meat patties to eat.
The beautiful yellow color was very evenly distributed. Even through the skin, the fragrance of the fillings made one salivate.
Although it was fried meat patties, it wasn't greasy at all. Bringing it to his mouth, Gu Zheng took a bite.
"Kacha …."
A special crispy sound rang out and continued in Gu Zheng's mouth. The meat patties perfectly explained what it meant to be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
The crispy skin and the perfect amount of fillings intertwined in Gu Zheng's mouth. The fragrance of the venison mixed with the slight spiciness of the Immortal Grade meat.
"Delicious, Immortal Grade ingredients are indeed worthy of being Immortal Grade ingredients. The mellow taste given by the mutation is incomparable to other high grade ingredients. I've never eaten such delicious venison before! This feeling is like suddenly tasting a piece of red braised meat after eating vegetarian for three months. So satisfying! "
As usual, after Gu Zheng took the first bite, he commented in an intoxicated manner.
"Gulp!"
Die Ling swallowed her saliva loudly. The pitiful light in her eyes became even brighter. She tried her best to look at the menu, but she couldn't help but look at Gu Zheng's slightly greasy lips and his intoxicated expression.
"Master, I want to bite someone!" Die Ling said hatefully after swallowing her saliva again.
"Hmph."
Gu Zheng rolled his eyes at Die Ling and turned around to eat with his back facing her.
"En, delicious, too fragrant, too fresh!"
Although his back was facing Die Ling, Gu Zheng still shook his head as if this was the only way to live up to the taste in his mouth.
"Master, you're bullying me."
Die Ling swallowed her saliva and stomped her feet at Gu Zheng's back.
"I didn't do it on purpose, I just couldn't help myself!"
Gu Zheng laughed loudly and took another bite of the meat patty. He tried his best not to make any noise, but he still let out a satisfied snort. Who asked Immortal Grade ingredients to be so delicious!
