"I do have some business in the Spiritual Dance Palace, but I'm not here to find your master."
Usually, Emperor NvWa would refer to herself as "Your Majesty." But now, when she was talking to Qixuan Fairy, she was referring to herself as "Uncle-Master." This unprecedented change made Qixuan Fairy's heart tighten. She didn't want Emperor NvWa to talk about the Seven Profound Power. After all, although she hadn't received any benefits from Emperor NvWa, she had always been good to her.
"Xuan 'er, Xiao Qi has done something wrong. I'll ask him to come and apologize. Can we still stick to the previous agreement?"
Emperor NvWa looked at Fairy Qixuan with a pleading look. She was a mighty sage immortal, and yet she was acting like this in front of a junior. Fairy Qixuan was indeed caught off guard.
"Your Majesty, this …"
Fairy Qixuan didn't know how to refuse.
Seeing Fairy Qixuan hesitate, Emperor NvWa clenched her teeth and her expression became more emotional. "Xuan 'er, I'll tell you the truth. The Chaos Tribulation this time is very dangerous. If Xiao Qi doesn't become a sage, you may never see me again."
If it weren't for the fact that the disciples undergoing the tribulation were special enough, even sage immortals couldn't use certain methods on them. Emperor NvWa really wanted to bewitch Fairy Qixuan and take her away from the Spiritual Dance Palace so that she could share the Seven Profound Power with Xiao Qi.
Looking at Emperor NvWa's expression, Fairy Qixuan felt as if she was looking at an elder who was about to pass away. She felt a little uncomfortable. However, the uncomfortable feeling only lasted for a moment. Thinking of Xiao Qi's disgusting face and her promise to Gu Zheng, Fairy Qixuan's heart immediately became firm.
"Becoming a sage depends on chance. Xiao Qi already has, so his luck shouldn't be bad. I think Martial Aunt will be fine in the Chaos Tribulation," said Fairy Qixuan.
Emperor NvWa smiled wryly. She was already like this, but Fairy Qixuan's attitude was still so firm. This made her understand that there was no need to talk about the Seven Profound Power anymore.
She didn't say anything more to Fairy Qixuan and walked toward Gu Zheng.
As a matter of fact, Gu Zheng had already finished recasting Phoenix Cry Fairy's fleshly body when Emperor NvWa came to the back garden. However, he was regulating his breathing with his eyes closed.
When Fairy Qixuan went to greet Emperor NvWa, Gu Zheng naturally knew about it. However, he didn't stop meditating until Emperor NvWa stood in front of him.
Under normal circumstances, Gu Zheng needed to greet Emperor NvWa. However, since they had already looked at each other in the poisonous swamp, Gu Zheng didn't feel like doing anything else. Therefore, he didn't even bother to greet her.
Originally, Emperor NvWa had some scruples about teaching Gu Zheng a lesson because of the Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal. However, when she saw Gu Zheng's current state, anger immediately surged in her heart.
"Who gave you the courage?"
As Empress Wa questioned loudly, the energy of heaven and earth instantly pressed down on Gu Zheng, making it hard for him to breathe.
Facing the oppression of Emperor NvWa, Gu Zheng had a feeling that even though he was already very powerful, it would be as easy as flipping her hand for her to kill him if they really fought.
Gu Zheng had long heard the saying, "All those below the Sage are nonentities". Today, he really felt the anger of a Sage! A Sage was a Sage. As long as there was no tribulation like the Chaos Tribulation, they were immortal. Although there was only a one-word difference between a Sage-to-be and a Sage, the real gap between them was like heaven and earth.
"Do you really need to give me courage? Isn't it innate? "
Gu Zheng didn't resist Emperor NvWa. Instead, he laughed at her. He didn't believe that Emperor NvWa would dare to do something so outrageous to him when Xiao Qi was still alive.
"You're courting death!"
Emperor NvWa's dignity was challenged one after another. The furious Emperor NvWa immediately wanted to punish Gu Zheng severely. She wanted to teach Gu Zheng a lesson.
"Sister!"
Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal's voice sounded. The punishment that Emperor NvWa was about to inflict on Gu Zheng was also dissolved. Even the oppression that she exerted on Gu Zheng was dissolved by Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal.
"How dare you stop me? No one can stop me from punishing him! "
Emperor NvWa flew into a rage. In an instant, she used the energy of heaven and earth on Gu Zheng, completely suppressing Gu Zheng. Then, she raised her palm and slapped towards Gu Zheng's face as fast as lightning.
Although Emperor NvWa was impulsive, she didn't dare to go too far. This slap was the most she could do to a disciple who was undergoing tribulation. She wanted to knock out all of Gu Zheng's teeth, make his face as swollen as a pig's head, and make Gu Zheng understand that it was as easy as pinching an ant for her to kill Gu Zheng.
With his current cultivation base, Gu Zheng couldn't resist the absolute suppression of Emperor NvWa at all. This once again refreshed Gu Zheng's understanding of the strength of a Sage Immortal. Moreover, when Emperor NvWa attacked Gu Zheng, she was also on guard against Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal. Therefore, Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal couldn't stop this slap. However, Emperor NvWa's fierce slap didn't land on Gu Zheng's face. It almost brushed past Gu Zheng's face.
Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal frowned. She saw that Emperor NvWa had changed her mind at the critical moment. Therefore, her fierce slap didn't land on Gu Zheng's face.
The fury on Emperor NvWa's face had disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a kind of blankness. When she was about to slap Gu Zheng's face, she was inexplicably frightened.
"This …"
Emperor NvWa stared at Gu Zheng with her eyes wide open. She was inexplicably frightened. She had figured out what was going on. Therefore, she was very shocked.
Emperor NvWa understood that the so-called inexplicable fear was actually a warning from the Way of Heaven. In the case where she had punished Gu Zheng, such a situation shouldn't have happened. The fact that such a situation had happened could only mean that Gu Zheng had attracted the attention of the Way of Heaven. He was very extraordinary in the eyes of the Way of Heaven. Emperor NvWa had achieved her current Sage Position because she was once extraordinary in the eyes of the Way of Heaven. Now that Gu Zheng was extraordinary in the eyes of the Way of Heaven, how could she not be shocked?
In Emperor NvWa's opinion, Gu Zheng should have broken the situation in the Poisonous Swamp. Therefore, he became extraordinary in the eyes of the Way of Heaven. Thinking of this, she felt more or less better. After all, although Di You's head had been blasted apart by the angry man, his real death was in the hands of Xiao Qi. If the Way of Heaven wanted to take credit, Xiao Qi's credit would definitely be greater than Gu Zheng's. In such matters, the Way of Heaven didn't care whether the means were open and aboveboard. It only looked at the results. Otherwise, even if Cundi had defeated Kun Peng, he wouldn't have obtained the opportunity to become a Sage.
After all, Emperor NvWa was a Sage Immortal. In the inexplicable fear, besides knowing that Gu Zheng was extraordinary in the eyes of the Way of Heaven, she also discovered her own problem. This was the real reason why she was shocked. Because the effect of fear was like a wake-up call to her. The instability of her Dao heart, which was originally not easy to discover, was discovered by her.
Realizing that her Dao heart was unstable, Emperor NvWa didn't stay any longer. She hurriedly bade farewell to Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal. As for the matter of asking Gu Zheng for her disciple's relics, Emperor NvWa didn't mention it again. She knew that even if she mentioned it, Gu Zheng wouldn't give it to her. Now, she only wanted to hurry back to the palace and go into seclusion to stabilize her Dao heart through meditation.
After Emperor NvWa left, Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal was very relieved. She already knew that Emperor NvWa had discovered her Dao heart was unstable.
Although she was relieved, Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal was still worried. It was because Emperor NvWa was a Sage Immortal. Once her Dao heart was unstable, it wouldn't be so easy to suppress it. It was really very hard to say what would happen. After all, from Gu Zheng's attitude today, she had already seen that Gu Zheng really wanted to fight to the death with Emperor NvWa's disciple. Once Gu Zheng killed Xiao Qi, it was really very hard to say whether this kind of stimulation would cause Emperor NvWa's Dao heart to become unstable again.
Gu Zheng was also ecstatic when Emperor NvWa left just like that. He wasn't ecstatic that he had escaped punishment. He was ecstatic that he was really different in the eyes of the Way of Heaven! This was because apart from the fact that he was different in the eyes of the Way of Heaven, Gu Zheng couldn't think of any other reason for Emperor NvWa to stop at the critical moment.
In fact, when he was taught a lesson by Shala Fern Overlord, Gu Zheng had already regarded his difference in the eyes of the Way of Heaven as something to rely on. However, later on, when Nu Han was undergoing his tribulation, Gu Zheng had asked the Way of Heaven for help. However, the Way of Heaven didn't respond. When he saw the Way of Heaven in Kong Xuan's Mysterious Realm, the Way of Heaven still didn't show any difference to him. This made his previous guess uncertain. This time, Emperor NvWa stopped just like that, which was also a pleasant surprise for him.
Gu Zheng stayed in the Spiritual Dance Palace for a total of five days. During these five days, he helped all the disciples of Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal prepare a meal. In addition, during these few days, Gu Zheng cooked delicious food for Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal and the others every day. When he left, Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal even said that he was welcome to visit the Spiritual Dance Palace at any time. Of course, Heavenly Dance Sage Immortal didn't let Gu Zheng's hard work go in vain. She gave Gu Zheng some ingredients outside the circle. Although the quantity wasn't a lot, it was still a token of her appreciation. Gu Zheng was also grateful to Fairy Qixuan for sharing the Seven Profound Power with him. He had already decided that he would let Fairy Qixuan use the Dao Imparting Palace after the Star Void Mountain's restoration reached the standard.
The thing that made Gu Zheng the happiest after leaving the Star Void Mountain this time was that Fairy Qixuan had delayed the sharing of the Seven Profound Power for half a year.
Gu Zheng wasn't afraid that Fairy Qixuan would change her mind. Delaying the sharing of the Seven Profound Power for half a year was definitely a good thing for him. He could use this time to properly deal with another matter.
After returning to the Star Void Mountain, Gu Zheng entered the Chaotic Space and began to accelerate the growth of some precious ingredients. He also began to upgrade some of the ingredients that weren't of a high grade.
Processing the ingredients in the Great Desolate Space was actually something that Gu Zheng would often do when he had plenty of time. However, even if Gu Zheng didn't have much time, Die Ling would still help him accelerate the growth of the ingredients. After all, she lived in the Chaotic Space.
When Gu Zheng came to the Chaotic Space to process the ingredients, Die Ling naturally came along to help. She really liked the feeling of working with Gu Zheng.
The Immortal Essence in the Chaotic Space was dense. However, this density wasn't uniform. There was a place where the density of the Immortal Essence in the Chaotic Space stood out. This place was Gu Zheng's Immortal Field.
The Immortal Field didn't just contain Immortal Rations. It also contained some more precious things, such as Gu Zheng's Immortal Peach Tree and the Earth Embryo that he had obtained from killing Xiao Qi's clone.
Because the Earth Embryo had been severely damaged, Gu Zheng had thrown it into the Chaotic Space after obtaining it. What he was going to do next was related to the Earth Embryo.
"He he … Fortunately, I planted the Earth Embryo under the Immortal Peach Tree."
Die Ling smiled proudly when she saw Gu Zheng stop next to the Earth Embryo.
When Gu Zheng obtained the Earth Embryo, it was severely damaged and would take a long time to recover. Therefore, Gu Zheng didn't pay much attention to it and casually threw it into the Chaotic Space. However, when Die Ling was taking care of the Chaotic Space, she moved it into the Immortal Field.
If it was planted in an ordinary place, it would receive ordinary treatment. For example, when Gu Zheng and Die Ling didn't have much time, they would only take care of the Immortal Peach Tree. However, since the Earth Embryo was under the Immortal Peach Tree, they took it with them when they were taking care of it.
Don't underestimate this so-called taking care of it. It saved Gu Zheng a year of time to refine his clone! For ordinary cultivators, a year wasn't worth mentioning. However, for Gu Zheng, a year was a long time. It was enough for him to do a lot of things.
With a single thought, Gu Zheng cracked the ground to reveal the Earth Embryo that looked like a black jade. Next, Gu Zheng used the five elements to nourish the Earth Embryo. The Earth Embryo seemed to be breathing as it expanded and contracted.
A while later.
"Master, how is it?"
Die Ling hurriedly asked after seeing that Gu Zheng had finished his treatment.
"It's very stable. After this period of nurturing, it can already accept the 'Earth Blood' to repair itself," Gu Zheng said with a smile.
The 'Earth Blood' was a resource that Gu Zheng obtained after killing the Serpent King in the Poison Swamp. It was a great supplement for the Earth Embryo. However, Gu Zheng had never used it on the Earth Embryo because its medicinal effects were too strong. The weak Earth Embryo couldn't handle it. Now, it was time for it to use the 'Earth Blood'.
After removing the cork, the air was immediately filled with a strong smell of blood. Gu Zheng poured one-tenth of the red 'Earth Blood' on the Earth Embryo.
After the Earth Blood touched its body, the Earth Embryo was like a beating heart. It quickly absorbed the Earth Blood and its body began to emit a fluorescent light.
A while later, the light disappeared. The Earth Embryo's black jade color faded a bit. It looked like the Taisui fungus and started to take on a human form! After Gu Zhengfen used up all of the Earth Blood for the Earth Embryo, the Earth Embryo would lose all of its black color and turn into a chubby little person.
"Master, after the Earth Embryo is fully repaired, you can refine your clone right?" Die Ling asked.
"Yes, but this will take about half a month." Gu Zheng said.
Time passed quickly and half a month went by unknowingly.
After half a month, the Earth Embryo had completely absorbed the 'Earth Blood' and turned into a foot tall little person. Gu Zheng was ready to refine it into his clone.
There were many legends that mentioned the ability to create clones, and the process of creating clones was, without exception, extremely troublesome.
There were many things to do in the early stages and it was very easy to fail.
However, the Earth Embryo that Gu Zheng obtained wasn't an original item. It was already Xiao Qi's clone. Because of this, Gu Zheng didn't need to do the most difficult part of turning the Earth Embryo into a clone. It was as if the original Earth Embryo was a piece of metal. When Gu Zheng obtained the Earth Embryo, it was already an Immortal Artifact made of metal. Although this Immortal Artifact was damaged due to the loss of its owner, as long as Gu Zheng could repair it, he would be able to avoid the most complicated and most likely to fail steps.
