Gu Zheng had already deduced the food cultivation that was tailor-made for Die Ling countless times when he was outside of the circle! He had considered all possible problems, so although there would be some unavoidable troubles during the cooking process, it wasn't a big deal.
When the food cultivation was completed, it reached the high grade that Die Ling wanted. The entire immortal abode was filled with an indescribable smell. Due to the addition of Yao Cores to the food cultivation, its smell was not very attractive to Immortal Cultivators, but to Yao Cultivators, its smell was fatally attractive! If it wasn't for the immortal abode's immortal formation that could isolate the smell, this food cultivation's smell would definitely attract all the beast cultivators from thousands of miles away.
Die Ling had already swallowed her saliva several times, but she still looked at Gu Zheng, waiting for Gu Zheng to speak.
Gu Zheng rubbed Die Ling's hair and smiled, "Go, it'll be fine. I'll wait here for you to wake up!"
This food cultivation was tailor-made for Die Ling to break through to the Beast Emperor Realm. After Die Ling took the food cultivation, she would enter a deep sleep due to the effects of the medicine and enter the dream realm to find an opportunity to break through.
Die Ling was very certain that she would be able to obtain an opportunity in the dream realm! As for how long she would stay in the dream realm, Die Ling also set it to a month. This was an advantage that only divine beasts born from the blessings of the heavens and earth had! If it was a normal divine beast facing a large realm like the Beast Emperor Realm, even if they were lucky enough to enter the dream realm, they wouldn't be as certain as Die Ling that there would be an opportunity within a month!
However, Die Ling also had her worries! Because she was a divine beast born from the blessings of the heavens and earth, Die Ling had never experienced a tribulation like other beast cultivators. However, advancing to the Beast Emperor Realm was a hurdle that all beast cultivators had to go through! Many beast cultivators had failed at this hurdle, so it was inevitable that Die Ling was worried about her tribulation.
Hearing Gu Zheng's words of comfort, Die Ling seemed to immediately relax. After taking the food cultivation, she quickly fell into a deep sleep.
He had been busy for the past few days and now Die Ling had fallen asleep. Gu Zheng poured himself a cup of immortal wine and slowly tasted it while thinking about what to do next.
It took him more than a month to go to the Undercurrent Sea. There was only one month left from the three months that Le Xian had said. After Die Ling advanced to the Demon Emperor Stage, Gu Zheng decided to look for Gokusen.
Gu Zheng didn't drink too much immortal wine. After three cups, he released the Primal Chaos Pagoda and entered the statue space to cultivate.
Gu Zheng's cultivation this time was not an attempt to comprehend the Dao. After all, Die Ling could wake up at any time in a month's time. In a state where he had to be constantly alert, it was not suitable for him to cultivate in seclusion. Therefore, Gu Zheng planned to use ingredients outside of the cooking circle to further improve his Eye of Dao. After a trip to the outside world and a great harvest in the mysterious space, Gu Zheng now had a stock of ingredients outside of the cooking circle. It was time for him to try to further improve his Eye of Dao.
Unknowingly, seven days had passed. Gu Zheng, who was cooking ingredients outside of the cooking circle, suddenly sensed that Die Ling had woken up.
"How is it?"
Looking at Die Ling's smiling face in the Chaos Space, Gu Zheng knew that everything must have gone smoothly. However, he still wanted to hear it from her personally. After all, only seven days had passed. This was considered a very short period of time.
"Master, everything is going smoothly. I'm only missing the tribulation now!" Die Ling said excitedly.
Gu Zheng smiled and nodded at Die Ling, "Are you ready?"
Die Ling was in the Chaos Space. Now that she appeared in the real world, the phenomenon would immediately appear and the tribulation clouds would quickly condense.
"I'm ready but I'm still a little nervous!" Die Ling stuck out her tongue and said.
"Don't be nervous. I believe you'll be fine!"
Gu Zheng smiled and left the statue space. After walking out of the Primal Chaos Pagoda, he brought Die Ling out of the Chaos Space.
"Rumble …"
Just as Die Ling appeared in the real world, thunder rumbled in the clear sky. Strong winds blew around the Immortal Palace. The Immortal World's rich Immortal Essence began to flock towards the Immortal Palace.
Gu Zheng made a hand seal and the Immortal Palace's Immortal Array stopped operating. The Immortal Essence condensed by the phenomenon immediately surged in, turning the Immortal Palace into a world of 'dense white fog'.
Looking at the sky through the dense Immortal Essence, Gu Zheng's face revealed a trace of surprise which quickly turned into joy.
"Master, how, how could this be? Shouldn't it be the tribulation clouds? "
Die Ling stuttered. The clouds in the sky weren't black tribulation clouds. Instead, they were auspicious clouds blessed by the heavens and earth.
"This might have something to do with the fact that you were born from the blessing of the heavens and earth. I have to say, you're really lucky!" The one speaking wasn't Gu Zheng but the artifact spirit.
"Since ancient times, there have been many divine beasts born from the blessing of the heavens and earth. However, I've never heard of a divine beast that was about to break through to the Demon Emperor Realm when auspicious clouds appeared instead of tribulation clouds!" The artifact spirit spoke again.
The artifact spirit was the one who told Gu Zheng to let the divine beast egg receive the blessing of the heavens and earth with him. However, the artifact spirit didn't expect that Die Ling, who was born from the divine beast pill, wouldn't have a Demon Emperor Realm tribulation.
"That's great. I won't be injured if I don't have to go through tribulation. I won't have to recuperate if I don't have to. Then I can appear whenever master needs me!" Die Ling jumped in joy.
"Actually, the benefits aren't just that I don't have to go through tribulation." Gu Zheng, who had been silent all this time, spoke up.
"Master, are there other benefits?" Die Ling asked with wide eyes.
"Yes! It was only after I saw the auspicious clouds that I came to a realization. "
Gu Zheng paused for a moment before continuing, "You were born from the blessing of the heavens and earth after Daluo Jinxian's tribulation. From that moment onwards, you and I are 'interdependent.' You can also receive the blessings of the heavens and earth when I need to go through tribulation, you can also help me resist the heavenly tribulation!"
"What?"
Die Ling wasn't the only one who was shocked. Even the artifact spirit cried out in surprise.
Only one person could bear the heavenly tribulation. This was an unchangeable part of the laws of the heavens and earth. If someone interfered with someone else's tribulation, they would also be punished by the heavenly tribulation. However, Gu Zheng said that Die Ling could help him go through tribulation. This clearly meant that Die Ling could help him share the burden of the heavenly tribulation. How could Die Ling and the artifact spirit not be shocked?
Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He only smiled, indicating that Die Ling and the artifact spirit's thoughts were correct.
"Master, does that mean that when I receive the blessings of the heavens and earth, you can also receive the blessings of the heavens and earth?"
Butterfly Spirit had already understood the deeper meaning behind Gu Zheng's words, 'fortune and misfortune are interdependent'.
"That's right, that is indeed the case! Actually, it was like this from the beginning. However, after you were born, I didn't go through tribulation again and you didn't receive the blessings of the heavens and earth. That's why we didn't know about this surprise until now! "
Gu Zheng laughed. This was truly a surprise. It wasn't that he didn't envy Die Ling for being able to share the blessings of the heavens and earth with him. But now, such a good thing had finally landed on his head!
"That's great!"
Die Ling jumped up in joy again, "Master can also enjoy my blessings of the heavens and earth. This feeling is simply too great!"
"This is really great news. But why does it go against common sense?"
The artifact spirit was also happy. However, she still didn't dare to believe that such a thing was true.
"I don't know the exact reason, but I think it has something to do with my body going against common sense!"
Gu Zheng paused for a moment before continuing, "The Five Elements Immortal Ball and the Yin Yang Immortal Ball in my body can also be considered as being against common sense right? A long time ago, I felt that the Five Elements Immortal Ball and the Yin Yang Immortal Ball had something I didn't understand! In the Dao Preaching Palace on Star Void Mountain, after I received Le Xian's teachings, I comprehended so many Five Elements God Arts. This doesn't mean that my comprehension ability is great. It was completely a method that the Five Elements Immortal Ball allowed me to obtain through a method similar to awakening! As for the Yin Yang Immortal Ball, it seems that apart from being able to absorb Yin and Yang energy for my own use, there are other incredible things that haven't been revealed yet. Today, in my opinion, the 'blessing and misfortune' between me and Die Ling is very likely due to the uniqueness of the Yin Yang Immortal Ball! After all, the last tribulation lightning of the 6-in-9 heavenly tribulation was the black and white yin yang tribulation lightning. After I used the Yin Yang Immortal Ball to withstand it, the blessings of the heavens and earth appeared and Die Ling enjoyed the blessings of the heavens and earth with me. "
"Perhaps that's the reason you're talking about!" The spirit nodded.
The auspicious clouds in the sky had already formed a large scale and the energy of the heavens and earth around the immortal mansion had already condensed to become very dense. Gu Zheng and Die Ling sat cross-legged in the courtyard, waiting for the blessings of the heavens and earth that belonged to them.
The immortal mansion was located on a celestial mountain. Such a large phenomenon of the heavens and earth naturally alarmed the cultivators on the celestial mountain.
However, the celestial mountain where the immortal mansion was located was the same as the floating mountain where Gu Zheng's cave abode was located in the Untainted Land. There were people who were responsible for the daily affairs of the celestial mountain. Therefore, when such a special situation occurred, there was no need to worry that someone would take the opportunity to cause trouble.
But then again, from the size of the auspicious clouds, the cultivators could see that the person who was about to receive the blessings of the heavens and earth had advanced to become a Sage-to-be! Even if they wanted to take the opportunity to do something and absorb some of the blessings of the heavens and earth, they had to consider whether they had the life to enjoy it first!
The cultivators on the celestial mountain discussed animatedly. Most of them had the intention of visiting the newly ascended Sage-to-be after the blessings of the heavens and earth. Above the immortal mansion, dew had already descended from the auspicious clouds. Immortal essence that had been condensed for a long time surrounded Die Ling and Gu Zheng, forming a giant whirlwind.
Within the whirlwind, Die Ling was enjoying the feeling of the immortal essence crazily entering her body. As for Gu Zheng, because his cultivation had reached the peak of Daluo Jinxian, he didn't absorb any of the immortal essence.
Not absorbing the immortal essence wasn't controlled by Gu Zheng. It was because the blessings of the heavens and earth understood the situation of Gu Zheng's body. Therefore, the immortal essence that was supposed to enter his body only revolved around him.
Gu Zheng just quietly looked at the revolving immortal essence. The scene in front of him suddenly changed and he entered a mysterious state in a groggy state.
In front of him was chaos that couldn't be separated from the heavens and earth. Looking at this chaos, Gu Zheng didn't feel confused.
In the Mysterious Realm, cultivators were basically in a state of selflessness. They didn't know what they were doing, and they didn't even know who they were. In Gu Zheng's experience growing up, he had encountered this more than once or twice.
In this mysterious state, Gu Zheng still didn't know who he was. Or rather, he didn't even think about this question. He was just curious about this mysterious state and at the same time, he knew what he had to do. What he wanted to do was not a very strong thought. It was just like how one had to open the door if they wanted to leave the house. He just wanted to push aside the chaos!
It was very important that Gu Zheng had such a thought! Because although he didn't know who he was and didn't know what he was doing here, he still vaguely remembered the previous few times he was in this chaotic state. Therefore, this' opening the door 'was not unfamiliar to him at all. It wasn't difficult at all.
Gu Zheng waved his hand and the chaos in his vision turned into a whirlpool. Then, the clear air rose to become the heavens and the turbid air fell to become the earth.
Standing in the middle of the heavens and earth, Gu Zheng naturally thought of the appearance of the real world. Therefore, flowers, trees, mountains, rivers, and rivers appeared in this mysterious state at an unbelievable speed.
Gu Zheng landed on the ground and stepped on the soft grass. He smelled the fragrance of flowers in the air and looked at the mountains in the distance. He looked at the small animals that scurried by his feet from time to time. His heart was empty as if these things were fleeting clouds.
Immersed in this empty state, Gu Zheng kept walking forward. He didn't feel tired at all. The scenery on the road also didn't stop him.
After walking for an unknown period of time, Gu Zheng stopped in front of a different flower. The flower was very big and looked a little like a peony, but it wasn't.
Gu Zheng felt that the flower was very beautiful. He wanted to look at it carefully, but as he looked at it, his heart was moved. He thought of the Artifact Spirit's smile, the Artifact Spirit that shamed the moon and the flowers.
The moment Gu Zheng thought of the Artifact Spirit, the delicate and beautiful flower instantly turned into the Artifact Spirit's appearance. Gu Zheng subconsciously reached out to touch the Artifact Spirit's hair.
"Boom …"
The moment Gu Zheng's palm touched the Artifact Spirit's hair, his mind exploded. The originally quiet Artifact Spirit broke free from his touch and ran happily on the grass. Sometimes, it would stop and smile at him, and sometimes it would stop and make faces at him.
Gu Zheng didn't move. He just focused on looking at the Artifact Spirit. The Artifact Spirit's every frown, smile, and jump gave him a different feeling in his mind.
Almost unconsciously, Gu Zheng's hands also began to move. He waved his hands and formed seals.
When the cheerful Artifact Spirit in the distance stopped moving, Gu Zheng's hand also stopped moving.
A whirlwind appeared beside Gu Zheng. It gathered the thick energy of the earth, the spiritual energy of the mountains and rivers, and the pure energy of the sky above. As it spun, it turned into the Artifact Spirit's appearance.
"Gu Zheng!"
The newly appeared Artifact Spirit smiled and called out to Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng's eyes suddenly widened, and there was an indescribable shock in them!
At the same time, the Mystical Realm shattered and Gu Zheng stood up in the real world.
"What's wrong?"
The Artifact Spirit and Butterfly Spirit asked at the same time.
Gu Zheng looked around. There were no auspicious clouds in the sky and no whirlwind around him. When he closed his eyes, he knew that seven days had passed since the World Blessing triggered by the Butterfly Spirit!
"It's nothing. We'll talk about it later!"
Gu Zheng replied and immediately sat down cross-legged. He needed to master the things he had comprehended in the Mystical Realm first.
After about ten minutes, Gu Zheng opened his eyes.
Seeing that Gu Zheng had ended his state, the Artifact Spirit immediately asked, "Tell me, what did you comprehend in the Mystical Realm? Why did you look so shocked?"
Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He directly used the Immortal Domain and turned the real world into a world of ice and snow.
"Wa la wa la …"
The moment he appeared in the Immortal Domain, the snowmen that Gu Zheng had created earlier surrounded him and spoke in a language that only they could understand.
Gu Zheng reached out and waved his hand. Under the power of Dao, ripples appeared in the air.
A whirlwind appeared beside Gu Zheng. The snow on the ground quickly gathered and turned into the Artifact Spirit.
"Wa la wa la …"
When the surrounding snowmen saw that there was another snowman that was different from them, they immediately circled around the Artifact Spirit excitedly.
"Apart from looking more like a real person than the snowmen you created in the past, she doesn't seem to be any different!" The Artifact Spirit frowned.
"This is the Immortal Domain, not the real world. It's impossible to create a body that looks exactly like a real person. However, I can give her true intelligence and make her no different from a real person in this aspect! "
"What?"
Even though Gu Zheng spoke very seriously, the Artifact Spirit was still very shocked.
"You, you're saying that you comprehended the Dao of Life in the Mystical Realm? And it's the Advanced Dao of Life? "
The Artifact Spirit said that Gu Zheng had comprehended the Advanced Dao of Life because only with the Advanced Dao of Life could one create a life that was no different from a real person. And the reason why Empress Wa could create humans was because she had grasped the Advanced Dao of Life!
Gu Zheng didn't say anything and only nodded. He didn't expect that the Elementary Dao of Life would be the first of the Daos that he had grasped to reach the Advanced Dao of Life.
"Master, you can really create a real person? Then can you create a little sister for me? Or, or … "
Even the usually intelligent Butterfly Spirit seemed to be unable to think properly at this time.
However, Gu Zheng knew what Butterfly Spirit wanted to express. She wanted Gu Zheng to create more people that could help her.
Gu Zheng shook his head and stroked Butterfly Spirit's hair, "Creating a human is not something that can be done just because you want to! First, I can indeed create humans now but I can't create everyone. You are a divine beast that was born with the blessing of the world. Even if I can create a little sister for you, she won't have a good life like you. She only looks like you and is also a demon cultivator. However, her strength isn't at the Demon Emperor Realm but the most basic demon cultivator! Therefore, if you want me to create more of you, you will be of greater help to me. That won't work. Secondly … "
Gu Zheng's voice was very long. He looked at the sky and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he spoke again, "Good and evil, good and evil, is only a matter of a thought. If I create a large number of people just to strengthen myself, then I will fall into the Demonic Dao! Because if I don't care about the consequences, if I don't consider the responsibility and create people just to strengthen myself, then I will no longer be myself! They are all living beings. I created them and they have karma with me. Do I treat them as tools? Then I don't need to think too much! Do I treat them as people? Then I need to take responsibility for them! "
