In the past, Gu Zheng didn't pay much attention to the food cultivation because the effects of the food cultivation were produced very quickly. However, the elemental elixir food cultivation this time was different. During the cooking process, it didn't follow the rules, so its characteristics were produced relatively slowly.
After Gu Zheng finished eating a large meat patty, he sat down cross-legged in satisfaction. All the pores on his body opened, and a strong suction force formed a tornado above his head. The Immortal Core Power on the Floating Mountain began to rush into his body.
Although the elemental elixir food cultivation's characteristics were very powerful, it wouldn't disturb those who were in seclusion. After all, seclusion was a special state that couldn't be disturbed by others. Immortal cultivators would set up various restrictions before seclusion to prevent external disturbances.
However, not everyone was in seclusion. Those who weren't in seclusion had already flown into the sky.
"My God! What kind of food cultivation did Fellow Daoist Bai use? Why is it so terrifying? "
Great Master Duan was one of the few people flying in the sky. At this moment, he was looking at the location of Gu Zheng's cave with an uncontrollable shock.
"I don't know what kind of food cultivation this is, but it's too terrifying. I've never seen a food cultivation that can produce such a level of Immortal Core Power! It's hard to imagine how much Fellow Daoist Bai's cultivation will increase because of this food cultivation. "
Gan Long's expression was the same as Great Master Duan's. As for Ye Hongjiang, he didn't say anything, but he blinked hard, as if trying to distinguish whether this was an illusion or reality.
It was no wonder that Great Master Duan and the others were so shocked. After all, the strange phenomenon in Gu Zheng's cave was too terrifying.
The Immortal Core Power that was being crazily absorbed condensed into a thick white fog that could be seen with the naked eye. It was like the waves of the sea, one wave after another.
Although the crowd couldn't see Gu Zheng, they could see the tornado that was hundreds of feet tall and couldn't be completely hidden by the restrictions. It was sweeping up the wave-like Immortal Core Power.
Moreover, it wasn't just the Immortal Core Power on the Floating Mountain that was being mobilized. Even the Immortal Core Power within a certain range was affected and condensed toward the Floating Mountain.
"Amitabha. This poor monk thinks that he's experienced and knowledgeable, but Fellow Daoist Bai's food cultivation today has broken my understanding of Immortal Chefs!" Great Master Wu Nian said.
"I thought that the Asian food cultivation's effects were already very strong, but now it seems that there's a huge difference between the Asian food cultivation and Fellow Daoist Bai's! It seems like I'll have to look for Fellow Daoist Bai to cook a food cultivator with a stronger effect. "Great Master Duan licked his lips, and his eyes looked very excited.
"If I didn't see such a terrifying amount of immortal essence being plundered today, I would have thought that a food cultivator at Yaxin's level is already the highest level of food cultivators." Gan Long sighed.
"I'm different from you, Fellow Daoist Gan. I've always believed that there must be a higher level of food cultivation above Ya Xin! After all, it's not like there aren't any ingredients of a higher grade than Asin Grass. It doesn't make sense that the path of a food cultivator ends at the Asin Grass level. "
. "Great Master Duan paused for a moment, then continued," Unfortunately, the Immortal Chefs I've asked all said that there's no higher level of food cultivation. Even if I'm willing to pay a high price, the answer I get is the same! Later, when I went to the Floating Mountain to live in seclusion, my expectations for higher level food cultivation faded a lot. Who would've thought that I would accidentally meet an Immortal Chef who can cook higher level food cultivation! How can I not be excited? Eating higher level food cultivation isn't just for the improvement of my cultivation base. It's also a knot in my heart. If I can untie this knot, whether it's my state of mind or cultivation base, they will both improve! "
"Amitabha!"
Great Master Wu Nian chanted the name of Buddha and said, "Although I really want to congratulate Fellow Daoist Duan, things won't be so easy. In this poor monk's opinion, the food cultivation level higher than the Asian food cultivation level should belong to the category that Immortal Chefs don't provide to outsiders. Otherwise, the highest level food cultivation level in the Immortal Chef Shops wouldn't be just the Asian food cultivation level! "
"Indeed, Immortal Chefs have many rules, especially those from Immortal Chef Sects. However, Fellow Daoist Bai isn't from an Immortal Chef Sect, so the rules that other Immortal Chefs have to abide by don't apply to him? "Great Master Duan said.
"That's indeed a possibility!"
Ye Hongjiang also said, "However, even if Fellow Daoist Bai agrees, the price of cooking this level of food cultivation will definitely be frighteningly expensive. Great Master Duan, you should be mentally prepared!"
"As long as Fellow Daoist Bai agrees, resources won't be a problem! All these years, this Duan has helped people refine tools, and I've indeed obtained some good ingredients. This Duan has been unwilling to sell these ingredients because I'm waiting for this kind of opportunity to appear! "Great Master Duan laughed heartily.
"I'm envious of Great Masters like you. Every one of you is an existence that doesn't lack resources!" Ye Hongjiang shook his head and smiled bitterly.
No matter what the people outside said, Gu Zheng felt his immortal energy crazily growing at this moment.
The ball of immortal energy in his body had already expanded to its peak, and the next step was to compress it. Once the ball of immortal energy was completely compressed, Gu Zheng's cultivation would be at the intermediate stage of Daluo Jinxian.
Compared to ordinary Immortal Cultivators, Gu Zheng's cultivation speed was truly very fast! Being able to cultivate at such a fast speed was not only because he was the successor of Gokusen, but also because of his opportunities.
Just like when he consumed the elemental core food cultivation in the Skull Palace, the amount of elemental core food cultivation was originally not enough to allow him to advance to the early stage of Daluo Jinxian. He still had a lot of immortal energy left to fill the intermediate stage of Daluo Jinxian.
However, in the mysterious realm of the early stage of Daluo Jinxian, Gu Zheng's ball of immortal energy and natal spirits of the five elements all underwent an extraordinary qualitative change. As a result, it triggered the blessings of heaven and earth, causing more immortal energy to flow into his body. This caused his newly entered sixth level of Gokusen's Spell to reach the sixth level of 20%!
Compared to the elemental core food cultivation last time, the efficacy of the elemental core food cultivation this time was undoubtedly stronger. However, without the blessings of heaven and earth, it was already very good to be able to make the sixth level of 20% of Gokusen's Spell reach the sixth level of 30%. After all, the higher one's cultivation was, the greater the amount of Celestial Core Power needed to advance. For someone like Gu Zheng, who was able to advance his cultivation by relying on the Path of Food Cultivation, it was something that others could only envy.
Black and white light emitted from Gu Zheng's ball of immortal energy. Under the compression of Gu Zheng's Gokusen's Spell, the originally rapidly spinning ball of immortal energy slowed down. The original light also dimmed.
Finally, the spinning ball of immortal energy stopped in Gu Zheng's dantian. The originally very dim black and white light suddenly lit up at this moment. The ball of immortal energy in Gu Zheng's body also had a different kind of stability than before. The transformation was complete.
Gu Zheng's cultivation advanced. As expected, the Gokusen's Spell entered the sixth level of 30%, causing his cultivation to reach the intermediate stage of Daluo Jinxian.
However, the effects of the food cultivation this time also ended very quickly. It was not like the previous times when the effects of the food cultivation would last for a while after the cultivation advanced.
"The higher the cultivation, the more difficult it is to advance. Next time, I won't even be able to enter the sixth level of 40%."
Although it would be difficult to raise his cultivation, it was not a big deal to Gu Zheng. If the first time was not enough, then he would do it a second time, or even more. In any case, with the resources he had now, he could still do this kind of food cultivation a dozen times.
However, there was a gap between each time the food cultivation was used. This was to stabilize the rapidly advancing cultivation and also to allow the body to recover. After all, when the effect of the food cultivation was activated, the pores all over the body would open and turn into whirlpools. This was also a very strange consumption! If the timing of the food cultivation wasn't right, the pores wouldn't all turn into whirlpools and this would affect the effects of the food cultivation.
"Congratulations Master for advancing in cultivation!"
Seeing Gu Zheng open his eyes, Die Ling cheered.
Gu Zheng smiled and reached out to pat Die Ling's hair.
"Master, those people have been watching outside the whole time. Do you want to go see them?"
Great Master Wu Nian and the others couldn't see the situation on the square, but Gu Zheng and Die Ling, who were inside the restriction, could see what they looked like.
"No need. I set up the barrier because I don't want to talk to them. They must be very shocked right now and I don't want to see them either!"
Gu Zheng paused and smiled at Die Ling, "Have you chosen what you want to eat? Tell me when you're done. I'll prepare it for you right now and then go into seclusion for a few days. "
"Great!"
Die Ling cheered, "I want to eat 'Lonely Peak Flying Snow' and 'Three Treasures Stew'!"
"Okay, let's go back to the cave!"
Gu Zheng walked in front while Die Ling bounced behind him. She couldn't help but salivate as she looked forward to the delicious food.
After returning to the cave, Gu Zheng immediately began to pack up the ingredients to prepare the two dishes Die Ling ordered. However, this matter was destined to be delayed. After all, there was another person who was as urgent as Die Ling, and that person was Master Duan.
When Master Duan arrived, Gu Zheng invited him into the cave and Die Ling served him tea.
"Master Duan, are you here for the matter of food cultivation?"
Gu Zheng had already guessed Master Duan's purpose for coming. When he was in the square, he saw the excitement on Master Duan's face through the barrier.
"That's right. I wonder if Master Bai can make me a portion of the food cultivation you ate before?" Master Duan's eyes were filled with hope.
"Master Duan should know that the Immortal Chef profession has many rules. Although I'm not a member of the Immortal Chef Sect, I have my own rules set by my master. I can't easily break them!" Gu Zheng said.
Making food cultivation for others was an unwritten rule for Gu Zheng. It was just like when he opened the Immortal Chef Shop's Extremely Fragrant Little Villa on Earth. It could be considered opening the door to do business, but the tool spirit only allowed him to sell energy cultivation increasing food cultivation.
Regarding this point, Gu Zheng had asked the tool spirit the reason for it. The tool spirit's answer was that it didn't want others to enjoy the same treatment as it did! Moreover, the food cultivation passed down by Gokusen, other than the energy increasing food cultivation and spirit beast food cultivation, if Gu Zheng wanted to make a higher grade food cultivation for others, he had to get the tool spirit's permission.
"Can't easily break the rules, but it's not that I can't do it. I just don't know if Master Bai is willing to break the rules for this Duan once?"
Master Duan looked at Gu Zheng, and Gu Zheng also looked at Master Duan, but they didn't immediately speak.
Although the tool spirit had said that if he wanted to make a higher grade food cultivation for others, he had to get her permission first. However, things were different now. Ever since Gokusen had let Gu Zheng gain experience in the Wilderness, as long as it wasn't an explicit rule, the tool spirit had been very lenient with him.
Now that the tool spirit was still asleep, Gu Zheng couldn't wait for her to wake up and talk to Master Duan about this matter. Just like when Gu Zheng bought the Mysterious Dew Immortal Grass in Fanyu County, he didn't wait to ask the tool spirit and had already transplanted it into the Wilderness.
For Gu Zheng, there were many things that he could decide for himself. After all, he was already a Daluo Jinxian, not the young boy on Earth. This was the same even if the tool spirit was awake.
Knowing Master Duan's purpose, Gu Zheng had already weighed the pros and cons in his heart and made up his mind to make a food cultivation for Master Duan. However, even if he had an idea, he couldn't agree too easily. Otherwise, how could he express the preciousness of making an exception?
"Master Bai, please make an exception for this Duan! As long as you make an exception for this Duan, this Duan will definitely not shortchange you in terms of remuneration! "
Master Duan's eyes were pleading. Although Gu Zheng didn't say that he couldn't make an exception, his silence really made Master Duan anxious like an ant on a hot pan.
"It's not about remuneration. I'm just thinking, is Master Duan worthy of me making an exception?"
Gu Zheng looked at Master Duan as if he wanted to see into his heart.
Hearing Gu Zheng's words, Master Duan immediately patted his chest. "Master Bai, don't worry. You can ask around about this Duan's character! If Master Bai is willing to make a food cultivation for this Duan, this Duan will remember Master Duan's favor! "
Master Duan was a first grade refining master. Gu Zheng valued his favor very much. This was also something that Gu Zheng wanted. Now that he had gotten what he wanted, Gu Zheng solemnly nodded his head.
"For a high-quality food cultivation, the ingredients needed will be very precious. The remuneration that Immortal Chefs want will also be very high!"
Previously, when Gu Zheng helped Master Duan and the others to make a food cultivation, the fee was the same as the Immortal Kitchen Store's. They provided the ingredients for the food cultivation, and Gu Zheng received thirty percent and thirty-five percent of the total value of the ingredients in return.
Although thirty percent of the total value of the ingredients was not a small amount, Master Duan and the others still expressed their gratitude to Gu Zheng. After all, Gu Zheng was a First Grade Immortal Chef, but his fee was the same as the Immortal Kitchen Stores outside. This was already giving them a lot of face and a big discount.
"Since I came to find Fellow Daoist Bai, this Duan naturally understands this point! Fellow Daoist Bai, please tell me what ingredients are needed to make a high-quality food cultivation like the one you ate before, and how much is the remuneration? "Master Duan asked.
"Fellow Daoist Duan is a refining master, so you should have a lot of ingredients. However, for a high-quality food cultivation like the one I ate, the main ingredient needs to be immortal grade! I need to take a look at the immortal grade ingredients before I can determine what the rest of the ingredients are. Moreover, to cook that kind of food cultivation, I need two immortal grade ingredients. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Duan has any of them? "
To Gu Zheng, immortal grade ingredients were almost priceless. Even if he agreed to make a food cultivation for Master Duan, it was impossible for him to give him his immortal grade ingredients. After all, he only had fourteen immortal grade ingredients, and he still needed them to make a food cultivation for himself in the future.
As for cooking a high quality elemental core food cultivator, Gu Zheng definitely had to report more ingredients. This wasn't to say that he was deliberately trying to rip Grandmaster Duan off. It was just that he had used very few resources to cook such a powerful food cultivator. If this matter were to spread out, it wouldn't do him any good.
"I have immortal grade ingredients here!"
Master Duan did not hesitate. With a wave of his hand, three immortal grade resources appeared on Gu Zheng's table. His action made Gu Zheng's heart move. To be able to take out resources with a wave of his hand, this could only mean that he had a high-grade air immortal tool! It had been a few years since he entered the Untainted Land. Master Duan was the first person Gu Zheng saw who used a high-grade air immortal tool.
"Since Fellow Daoist Duan has immortal grade ingredients, then let's talk about the rest of the ingredients. There are a hundred good grade immortal essence pills, forty high-grade immortal essence pills, two immortal grade ingredients, and six high-grade ingredients. They are … "
Gu Zheng doubled the ingredients needed to cook the elemental core food cultivation and told Master Duan. It had to be said that just the ingredients for cooking the food cultivation were enough to scare most of the cultivators! However, Master Duan was a first-grade refining master, and refining was also a high-return profession. Although the ingredients needed to cook the food cultivation made Master Duan frown slightly, it was not that he could not afford it.
"These are the things that Fellow Daoist Bai mentioned!"
Master Duan took out a pile of resources and put them on the table. Among them were immortal essence pills and the ingredients that Gu Zheng named.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, tell me what you want in return!" Master Duan said.
"Fellow Daoist Duan, you should know what kind of remuneration is needed to cook a food cultivation. The higher the quality of the food cultivation, the higher the fee. This is also a matter of common sense."
Gu Zheng's voice paused, and then he said, "However, Fellow Daoist Duan is not an ordinary customer. I will definitely give you a discount. How about this, I will help you cook this food cultivation, and I only want this immortal grade ingredient as a reward! "
The higher the quality of the food cultivation, the higher the fee. The amount of resources needed to cook the food cultivation this time was huge, so it was not unreasonable for Gu Zheng to ask for an immortal grade ingredient as a reward.
Although immortal grade ingredients were very precious, they were all prepared by Master Duan for this kind of opportunity. Without the cooking of the food cultivation, immortal grade ingredients were just commodities! Therefore, Master Duan did not have any objections to Gu Zheng asking for an immortal grade ingredient as a reward.
"The matter is settled, but I hope Fellow Daoist Duan can keep the matter of the resources and the remuneration a secret," Gu Zheng said.
"Fellow Daoist, don't worry. Do you think I am the kind of person who does not know what is good for me? This matter is only known to us, "Master Duan said gratefully.
"Okay!"
Gu Zheng nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist, when do you need this high-quality food cultivation?"
"I have not had time to eat the Yaxin food cultivation that was custom-made before, so the time is scheduled for the day after tomorrow. After eating the Yaxin food cultivation, my body will probably need some time to recover. I feel that within half a month, I will not be able to eat the high-quality food cultivation!" Master Duan said.
"In that case, Fellow Daoist, you can take these things back first. When you are able to eat the high-quality food cultivation, you can come to me again!" Gu Zheng said.
"No, I trust Fellow Daoist Bai's character. I will leave these ingredients to Fellow Daoist Bai!" Master Duan said with a smile.
"Okay! Since Fellow Daoist Duan trusts me, I will leave these ingredients here first. When Fellow Daoist Duan needs them, you can come to me. "Gu Zheng said.
After settling the matter of the food cultivation, Master Duan chatted with Gu Zheng for a while, and then he said goodbye to Gu Zheng.
