From the beginning to the end of the battle, it only took a short time. The people from the Mi Xing Alliance who were targeting Gu Zheng were all taken down.
Looking at the sea of blood and mountains of corpses, Gu Zheng clenched his teeth and began to search Udolili's soul.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Gu Zheng's gloomy face after searching Udolili's soul, the Device Spirit immediately asked.
"After returning to the Untainted Land from the Earth, I didn't have anything special to do except look for Meow Meow and the angry man. But now I do!"
Gu Zheng smiled coldly and told the Device Spirit the result of his soul searching.
Ketris and Sammander were helpers that Uduo Lili had found from the Untainted Land. Uduo Lili had given them some benefits and also provided them with some guarantees to travel through space. Therefore, the three of them had come to the Earth with a purpose.
Udolili had come to the Earth to kill Gu Zheng! As for why she had done this, it was because she had been assigned to do so.
The person who had assigned Udolili was called Xiao Qi. He was a disciple of a Holy Immortal, just like Gu Zheng!
Although Gu Zheng had not stayed in the Untainted Land for many years, if someone wanted to investigate him, there were still many suspicious things about him. For example, he had made rapid progress in his cultivation, Jin Yuanzi, the Sage-to-be of Mount Shu, had recognized him as his Junior Brother, and his excellent cooking skills.
Xiao Qi did not only target Gu Zheng. Before targeting Gu Zheng, he had asked Udolili to take people to another plane to kill another disciple of a Holy Immortal.
Although Holy Immortals were very powerful, their disciples were not very strong, especially people like Gu Zheng, who had just become a disciple of a Holy Immortal.
As for the killing of their disciples, Holy Immortals, who always believed in fate, had a tacit attitude toward such things. This was a fact that Gu Zheng had already known when he talked with Gokusen last time. The Holy Immortals had an agreement that they would not interfere in this kind of natural selection. Of course, Xiao Qi was not the only one who hunted Saint Celestials. Among the disciples of the Ten Great Saint Celestials, at least three of them had done the same.
"This Xiao Qi is really courting death!"
After hearing what Gu Zheng had said, the Device Spirit gnashed his teeth in anger. "After returning to the Untainted Land, I will go to the Heaven Realm to meet him!"
"Of course!"
Gu Zheng smiled coldly and searched the souls of the other three people. Then, he crippled their cultivation and cleaned up their battlefield, imprisoning their souls in their corpses.
The Five Elements Immortal Sphere in his body vibrated, and Gu Zheng used the Earth Manipulation Art to condense the rocks under the ground, forming four stone pillars that were fifty feet tall.
After fixing the corpses of Uduo Lili and the others on the stone pillars, Gu Zheng set up an immortal formation around the stone pillars so that their souls would suffer the torment of the immortal formation's operation.
Using the Earth Control Spell again, Gu Zheng condensed the stone into a coffin. Using the immortal technique, he pieced the bodies of the believers together and placed them in the stone coffin. Then, he flew towards the direction of the Mi Star Alliance.
After searching the souls of Uduo Lili and the others, Gu Zheng found out about Chakar and the members of the Mi Star Alliance who had participated in this matter.
After arriving at the Mi Star Alliance, Gu Zheng asked Die Ling to save Chakar, while he captured all the members of the Mi Star Alliance who had participated in the planning of the event.
Chakar's blood was useful for Caitris's cultivation, which was why he was spared. However, Chakar's strength had also decreased as his blood had been sucked by Caitris a few times.
Previously, when Gu Zheng came to the United States to collect the Power of Faith, he had met Chakar. Therefore, the two of them were quite familiar with each other.
Chakar was naturally grateful for Gu Zheng's rescue.
Gu Zheng asked Chakar to help him deal with the event. More than a hundred thousand people had died just like that. Someone had to take care of the aftermath.
Gu Zheng did not have the time. His schedule was very full. However, no matter what, the people who had died were his believers. When Chakar was almost done dealing with the event, he would find time to meet with the families of the deceased and settle the issue of compensation.
Chakar agreed to Gu Zheng's request without hesitation.
However, regarding the issue of compensation, Chakar said that the matter was caused by the Mi Star Alliance. Therefore, the Mi Star Alliance should be responsible for all the compensation.
Gu Zheng naturally did not have any objections to Chakar's request. He did not stay in the Mi Star Alliance for too long and went to the next event.
Unknowingly, more than three months had passed. Gu Zheng finally fulfilled the trap that Die Ling had set when she said that he wanted to meet the people of the world.
Although Gu Zheng had been busy with the meet-and-greet for more than three months, he had gained a lot. Whether it was the Power of Will or the pure Power of Faith, his storage had reached the expectations of the Weapon Spirit. During these three months, Gu Zheng had also dealt with the aftermath of the event.
After more than three months of running around, Gu Zheng once again returned to the Emei Sect and spent three relatively leisurely days.
On the fourth day, Gu Zheng entered the space of the Taotie statue. He wanted to cook the four dishes again today to see if there would be any changes in the Eye of Dao.
He tidied up the ingredients and cooked the dishes.
Very soon, three out of the four dishes had been prepared by Gu Zheng. However, he still did not feel anything special about them.
Last time, when he cooked three dishes and did not feel anything special, Gu Zheng was depressed and irritated. However, this time, Gu Zheng felt very calm. This was a change in his state of mind! Anyway, for him, if the last dish didn't make him feel anything special, he would wait a few days before trying it again.
Sometimes, the more you wanted something, the less it would come. However, when you did not have much hope, the things you wanted would quietly come.
When the fourth dish was about to be cooked, Gu Zheng, who was watching the changes in the ingredients, suddenly saw a dazzling white light flash in front of his eyes.
When Gu Zheng's vision returned to normal, he found that he could see the materials that made up the ingredients more clearly than before! However, this clarity was not very useful. It was not enough to greatly improve Gu Zheng's cooking skills.
Sensing the change in Gu Zheng's mood, the Weapon Spirit immediately asked, "Do you feel something different?"
"Yes! The Eye of Dao can see the materials that make up the ingredients more clearly than before! "Gu Zheng said.
"Could it be that the so-called deeper level of the Eye of Dao is similar to awakening?" the Weapon Spirit asked excitedly.
"Although the situation of the special feeling is indeed a bit similar to awakening! I feel that it's just seeing the materials that make up the ingredients more clearly. This can't be considered a deeper level of the Eye of Dao! After all, seeing the materials that make up the ingredients did not improve my culinary skills. As for how to cook a dish, I will still use the old method, "said Gu Zheng.
"You mean to say that the materials that make up the ingredients have no effect at all?" the Weapon Spirit asked with a frown.
Gu Zheng thought for a moment and said, "That's right. At least, that's the situation now."
"Then what are you going to do next?" the Weapon Spirit asked again.
"Originally, I thought that if the fourth dish still did not make me feel anything special, I would wait a few days and try again. However, since it made me feel something special, I want to try it a few more times! "
Gu Zheng paused and then said, "However, I want to see the ingredients in the circle first and see if they have any special changes in the Eye of Dao."
The ingredients used in the four culinary skills all came from outside the circle. Therefore, the ingredients that corresponded to the outside of the circle were naturally the ingredients that belonged to the circle in the wilderness.
Gu Zheng looked at more than thirty kinds of ingredients of various grades. However, the materials that made up these ingredients did not change at all in the Eye of Dao.
"Is that really the case?" Gu Zheng muttered.
"Hmm?" The Weapon Spirit stared at Gu Zheng.
"The Eye of Dao did not observe any new changes in the materials that make up the ingredients in the circle! Could it be that the deeper level of the Eye of Dao is really only targeted at ingredients outside the circle? "
Gu Zheng frowned. He did not want the so-called deeper level of the Eye of Dao to only be effective on ingredients outside the circle.
"Make a few more dishes and see. Perhaps there will be new differences!" the Weapon Spirit said.
Gu Zheng nodded and then cooked one dish after another.
As he continued to cook, Gu Zheng could be considered to have grasped the knack of it. The vision of the Eye of Dao became better and better. He could see the materials that made up the ingredients more clearly. However, this feeling was very strange. It was not a stable accumulation process, but a process of triggering luck! If one was lucky, every dish would improve the vision of the Eye of Dao. If one was unlucky, it would not be strange if the vision of the Eye of Dao did not improve after two or three dishes.
Today, Die Ling was having a great time. Gu Zheng's delicacies came out of the wok one after another. She ate with a smile on her face and oil dripped from her mouth. After following Gu Zheng for so long, she had never eaten as much as she did today. Over twenty dishes were all in her stomach.
"Master, can you give me another dish to try?"
Die Ling rubbed her bulging stomach and hummed in satisfaction.
"Another dish?"
Gu Zheng's eyes lit up. He was suddenly inspired.
At first glance, there were indeed a lot of ingredients from outside the circle. There were five hundred mid-grade ingredients and three hundred high-grade ingredients. However, using these ingredients to cook the four dishes that Gokusen taught him, he could only make about six hundred dishes!
Six hundred dishes that could cultivate the Eye of Dao. How much could it improve the vision of the Eye of Dao? Could it improve the Eye of Dao to a deeper level and display its true uniqueness? Faced with these questions, Gu Zheng was also uncertain!
Previously, Gu Zheng did not think too much about it. He was completely immersed in cooking the ingredients. Now that Die Ling wanted to eat another dish, he remembered these details that could not be ignored.
Among the ingredients rewarded by the mission, the best four combinations were the four culinary skills taught to him by the Glutton Immortal. However, although the four dishes tasted the best, the amount of ingredients needed was also relatively large!
If he changed the dish, Gu Zheng could extend the lifespan of the ingredients without pursuing the ultimate taste. It was indeed a way to increase the chances of success.
"Lord Gokusen wants you to use these four dishes to cultivate a deeper level of the Eye of Dao. Although changing the dish can increase the chances of success, is this method really feasible? When you use Master Glutton Immortal's cooking method, there is a chance of triggering Luck. If you change the dish, you might use less ingredients, but the Luck won't be triggered again. That would be a great loss, "said the weapon spirit.
"Whether it works or not, we will only know after trying it. However, I have a feeling that it will work. After all, the ingredients that make up the ingredients have not changed. The secret of the Eye of Dao is definitely hidden in the accumulation of contact with these ingredients," said Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng knew the characteristics of all the ingredients like the back of his hand. Creating a new dish was as easy as flipping his hand.
This time, Gu Zheng did not pursue the ultimate taste of the food. He only wanted to try it once. Therefore, he used less ingredients.
As he cooked the ingredients, the seriousness on Gu Zheng's face gradually turned into excitement.
Seeing the change in Gu Zheng's expression, the weapon spirit immediately asked curiously, "How is it? Is it as you expected? "
"Yes, it is as I expected! Luck has been triggered again. The vision of the Eye of Dao has become clearer! "Gu Zheng said with a smile.
"If this works, how many dishes can you cook with the remaining ingredients?" asked the weapon spirit.
"Double it. One thousand and two hundred!" said Gu Zheng.
"You were thrifty to this extent, but you were still able to trigger luck. This is great!" The weapon spirit laughed.
"That's not the most important thing! The most important thing is that when I triggered luck just now, I don't know if it's because of the different cooking methods or because my luck has accumulated to a certain extent. I actually have a feeling in my heart that as long as I cook a few more dishes, the extraordinariness of the Eye of Dao will appear! "
"Hurry, hurry up and cook!"
Gu Zheng was excited, and so was the weapon spirit. The thing she liked to see the most was Gu Zheng making a breakthrough.
He cooked three more dishes in succession. Even if one of the dishes did not trigger luck, the feeling in Gu Zheng's heart that the Eye of Dao was about to reveal its extraordinariness was still extremely strong.
Finally, when Gu Zheng was cooking the fourth dish, a white light flashed in front of his eyes. The vision of the Eye of Dao had become even stronger.
"Great!"
Gu Zheng could not help but exclaim. This time, the enhancement of the vision of the Eye of Dao was really different from before.
At first, when Gu Zheng felt the awakening of the Eye of Dao, he saw some special substances in the ingredients. These substances seemed to be insignificant. During the cooking process, the special substances became clearer in his Eye of Dao. At this time, the special substances were like an 'egg'. Gu Zheng could only see the 'eggshell'.
But now, Gu Zheng's Eye of Dao had broken through the limits of the 'eggshell' and he could see the 'egg white' in the 'egg'! The 'egg white' was another special substance hidden under the 'eggshell'. When he discovered this special substance, Gu Zheng's mind worked quickly and he immediately came up with a new cooking method!
However, the so-called new cooking method was not the cooking method on the surface. On a deeper level, it was a special cooking method that mixed, stimulated, and transformed the substances that made up the ingredients.
But no matter what, Gu Zheng could see the 'egg white'. This was undoubtedly the best proof that he had grasped a deeper level of the Eye of Dao. However, a deeper level did not mean that it was the end. As the saying went, the Boundless Dao! When Gu Zheng saw the 'egg white', he also sensed the existence of the 'egg yolk'. However, since he had not truly seen the 'egg yolk', he might still have a long way to go.
The excited Gu Zheng immediately used the new cooking method to cook a dish and gave it to the butterfly spirit.
"Although Master has reduced the ingredients and the taste of the new dishes is not as good as the previous four dishes, it is still very good. But it is still so delicious! "
The butterfly spirit licked her lips and impatiently tried the new dish.
The spirit tool's words were not flattery! If the taste was divided into ten points, the four dishes that Gu Zheng made before could definitely be given nine points! As for the dishes that he made after that, they could also be given seven points! For a super Immortal Chef like Gu Zheng, the dishes that he created were seven points delicious. Even for a veteran foodie like the butterfly spirit, it was a rare enjoyment!
"Try it properly. You have eaten this dish before," Gu Zheng said.
"Okay!"
The butterfly spirit replied seriously to Gu Zheng and tasted the delicious food.
"Delicious, it is really too delicious!"
The butterfly spirit's stomach was already like that of a pregnant woman who was several months pregnant, but her appetite was still very good.
Looking at the butterfly spirit's table manners, Gu Zheng was shocked. With his current understanding of food, if he wanted to kill an immortal cultivator, he could really make them choke to death! Through his understanding of the ingredients, Gu Zheng was able to make the food that numbed the nerves of the cultivators, making them like pigs who only knew how to savor the delicacies without the slightest awareness of the crisis that had occurred to their bodies. Even if they died, it would be a happy death!
"Awesome!"
The butterfly spirit collapsed on the chair and rubbed her belly without a care for her image.
"Don't just think about how awesome it is. How do you feel?"
Although Gu Zheng knew the difference between the two dishes, he still wanted to hear it from the customer.
"If the previous dish was a seven point delicious, then the dish I just ate is an eight point delicious! The ingredients aren't much and the cooking method is the same, but the taste can be improved to such an extent. I really admire Master! "
The veteran glutton Die Ling gave Gu Zheng a big thumbs up with eyes full of admiration.
Gu Zheng nodded in satisfaction. He didn't cook anymore and instead took out a pile of ingredients from the circle. He wanted to see if the ingredients in the circle would change after he grasped a deeper level of the eye of Dao! If the ingredients in the circle could change, then he, who was already an extraordinary Immortal Chef, would be even more extraordinary!
Looking at the ingredients in the circle, Gu Zheng was really excited! The ingredients in the circle had really changed. Gu Zheng could see some substances that he couldn't see before! And these substances were the same as the substances in the circle that he saw at the moment. They could also affect the taste of the ingredients!
Gu Zheng laughed loudly. Being able to see these substances definitely had an extraordinary meaning!
If it was before, if Gu Zheng wanted to compete with a super Immortal Chef and the ingredients used weren't substances that could be sensed by the heart of Dao, then the food that Gu Zheng cooked and the super Immortal Chef cooked would taste no different! That was because their cooking skills had already reached a limit. But now, Gu Zheng had broken through that limit. He could see substances that the eye of Dao couldn't, and he could improve the taste of the ingredients!
Hearing Gu Zheng's laughter, the artifact spirit didn't need to ask to know that Gu Zheng must have seen some special substances in the ingredients in the circle.
"Quickly try cooking with the ingredients in the circle. If the ingredients in the circle can still accumulate luck, then you won't have to worry about the ingredients to cultivate the eye of Dao!" the artifact spirit said excitedly.
