"Really!"
The eel monster said again. It was not a question, but a certainty. Just like before, it was because it was excited, not because it doubted Gu Zheng's ability.
Since the first time it saw Gu Zheng, it had a feeling that Gu Zheng was an extraordinary person. Although Gu Zheng was only a child at that time, and his strength was not strong, the eel monster did not know why it had such a feeling.
Now, its strength was equivalent to the peak of Level Five of Internal Force, and it was only one step away from successfully transforming into a dragon. However, this step was not so easy to take. Fortunately, it was in the Untainted Land, and the probability of taking this step was higher.
If it was on Earth in the future, in order to take this step, countless people racked their brains and tried all kinds of methods. Even so, too many people did not succeed, and in the end, their lifespans were exhausted and they died.
The Untainted Land in the future was much stronger than on Earth, after all, it was full of immortal power. Even so, less than half of the people could take this step. Too many people with ordinary cultivation talent could only stop at the realm of mortals, unable to touch the threshold of Tao.
Goblin was the same. If he could not pass this threshold, his lifespan would be exhausted very quickly, and he would turn into a pile of yellow soil.
"Of course!"
Gu Zheng smiled and did not say anything. He flew outside, and the eel monster waved its claws happily behind him, following Gu Zheng to the surface of the river.
"You swim forward, I will be by the river in a while!"
Gu Zheng and Wu You agreed to meet at the riverside. The eel monster could swim there, and he did not need to waste his energy to fly there. Although Gu Zheng could fly with it now, its cumbersome body would seriously slow down Gu Zheng's speed. It was better to let it swim on its own.
"Young Master!"
When Gu Zheng arrived at the agreed place, Wu You and the others had already arrived. They used two double-horse carriages, and they did not conserve the horses when they left the city. Instead, they sped up. Before Gu Zheng returned, they had already arrived at the riverside.
"Okay, you wait here first!"
Gu Zheng asked them to take out the pot and firewood. He did not put these big things in the storage bracelet. Although the storage bracelet was not small, it was still far from Gu Zheng's Gokusen Token. It could not store so many big things.
He was still thinking about when he would have the opportunity to refine Gokusen Token, and whether the Gokusen Token he refined would have a Device Spirit. He really missed the Device Spirit..
It was impossible for him to make the Glutton Immortal's Token with his current cultivation. Gu Zheng did not know when the original Glutton Immortal had made this treasure, but he knew that he had to be at least a Pre-Saint, or even higher. Otherwise, it was impossible to make such a supreme grade immortal item. Just the chaotic space alone was not something an ordinary Pre-Saint could do.
........ Gu Zheng was still a little far from that realm, but the Great Dao was walked step by step. Every step was indispensable. If he could improve his cultivation as soon as possible, he had to do it as soon as possible.
The ingredients needed for the Food Cultivator were quickly put in, one by one.
Gu Zheng was very familiar with making this kind of Food Cultivator. There was no problem at all. After a while, the aroma of the Food Cultivator spread out.
There was no one nearby, so there was no need to worry about attracting attention like last time.
No one came, but a dragon did. The eel demon had arrived long ago, but hadn't shown himself because of Wu You and the others. He couldn't help but stick his head out and sniff the air. He even exclaimed, "How fragrant!"
"Demon!"
The Eel Demon's appearance startled Wu You and the others, especially Aunt Cui. She waved her hand and threw out a wooden stick. This was the stick she had taken when she helped Gu Zheng collect the firewood.
With Auntie Cui's strength, she naturally did not pose any threat to the eel demon. The wooden stick, which was extremely lethal to ordinary people, was blown to the side by the eel demon with just a breath.
"Wait, this looks like a dragon!"
Mado was the calmest. He pulled on the frightened Andro and whispered. The Eel Demon did indeed look like a dragon head.
"Don't panic. This is a friend of mine!"
Gu Zheng said in a low voice. The Food Cultivator was not done yet, so he could not split himself. He could only speak to stop it.
"So it's Young Master's friend!"
After hearing Gu Zheng's words, Mado was no longer afraid. Wu You and Aunt Cui were also much better. Only Andro was still young and timid. He hid behind Mado.
"Lord Gokusen is my benefactor!"
The Eel Demon said honestly. Gu Zheng was already a true immortal, and a much more powerful one at that. It was not wrong for him to call him that.
"Young Master is also our benefactor!"
Mado said with a smile. Wu You and the others nodded in agreement. If they had not met Gu Zheng, Wu You would still be a bodyguard, Mado would still be a bandit, and Aunt Cui would still be a widow. It would not be like now. Even Aunt Cui could easily deal with a few strong men. Their strength had increased tremendously.
Other than Little Anzhuo, he had only cultivated for a short period of time, only three months, but he had already cultivated immortal power. Even he could easily deal with an adult.
Gu Zheng ignored them. The four of them and the dragon conversed softly. He was peacefully preparing the Food Cultivator.
The fragrance was getting stronger. Wu You, Mado and the others had seen Gu Zheng cook this before. At that time, they also knew that this was not something they could eat. They had seen with their own eyes that a person had only eaten a spoonful before exploding. This time, Gu Zheng had specially brought them out. His intentions were obvious.
Four hours later, the new Elemental Food Cultivator was ready.
Gu Zheng took out a spoon, scooped a small spoonful, and gave it to Mado.
Mado was now the strongest. He had already reached the late stage of Level Two of Internal Force. He started cultivating later than Wu You and Aunt Cui, but now he had surpassed them and became the strongest of the three.
In more than a year, he had reached the late stage of Level Two of Internal Force. This speed was not fast, but considering that he did not have the help of any immortal pills and purely relied on his own hard work, it was not easy to make such progress.
This was also because the immortal energy in the primitive world was abundant. If it were the earth in the Age of Dharma, it would be impossible.
"Thank you, Young Master!"
Mado carefully took it, but did not eat it. Instead, he waited.
"Wu You, Aunt Cui, this is for you!"
Wu You and Aunt Cui had less than Mado, about three-quarters of a spoonful. Their strength was now at the middle stage of Level Two, and they had just arrived. Naturally, they could consume less.
When it was Andro's turn, Gu Zheng directly dripped a few drops and diluted it before giving it to him. He had cultivated for the shortest time and was still at the early stage of Level One. He was only slightly better than an ordinary person, so he could not consume too much.
An Family's physique was indeed one of the few physiques that could cultivate. However, he was after all eight years old. His physique already contained some impurities. Because of this, he was actually not as good as Wu You and the other two.
Wu You and the other two had all cultivated after using the Marrow Cleansing Pill. They were like blank pieces of paper. Although Andro was young and had an excellent physique, eight years of living in the mortal world had affected him greatly. In comparison, he was indeed not as good as Wu You and the others.
Gu Zheng did not tell any of them about this. There was no point in telling them.
"This is for you!"
Gu Zheng scooped out a bowl and gave it to the eel demon. It was about to transform into a dragon, and this bowl of Food Cultivation was the best thing to help it do so. After digesting this bowl of Food Cultivation, he believed that it would be able to break through the barrier and truly transform into a dragon.
As for Gu Zheng himself, he kept a big bowl for himself. He was now the strongest, so one bowl was not enough.
After securing the carriage, Gu Zheng directly consumed all the Food Cultivation and entered the carriage to meditate. They did not return to the city. Wu You and the others also consumed the Food Cultivation and sat beside Gu Zheng to cultivate.
The eel demon did the same. However, after it consumed the Food Cultivation, it immediately dove into the water and lay there quietly.
This was the wilderness, so no one would come here. Gu Zheng also set up a simple illusion array. Regardless of whether it was humans or animals, they would take a detour and not disturb them. Unless an immortal came, this place was safer than the city.
After more than two hours, An Zhuo was the first to wake up.
He was the weakest, so he ate the least. By now, he had finished digesting the Food Cultivation. The benefits of eating the elemental Food Cultivation were obvious. His strength had doubled, and he was now at the mid-stage of Stage One Inner Force.
Eating delicious food once for more than two hours was equivalent to three months of cultivation. While An Zhuo was shocked, he also had some expectations. He hoped that he would be able to eat delicious food like this more often in the future. This way, his cultivation would increase rapidly, and he would have hopes of catching up to his senior brothers. He might even become a true immortal.
After cultivating, he understood that there was a threshold to becoming an immortal. However, after that threshold, no matter how strong one was, they would still be a mortal. They would not be able to fly. Only by passing that threshold could one become a true immortal.
This was his goal. It was also the goal of Wu You and the others.
Aunt Cui was the second to wake up. After waking up, she let out a long breath. After checking her body, she nodded in satisfaction.
She had also reached the late-stage of Stage Two, the same realm as Mado. It was no wonder that Gu Zheng had been searching for all kinds of ingredients. The food made from these ingredients was not only delicious, but also had such great effects. It was really beyond her expectations.
In the future, not only would Wu You have to go out and search for ingredients, but they would also have to go out and search. She and An Zhuo had the same idea. If they ate this food a few more times, their realm would increase very quickly. Sooner or later, they would become immortals. For their own sake, they had to work hard to find ingredients.
Wu You was the third to wake up. He had also reached the late-stage of Stage Two Inner Force, but he was still at the peak. After Mado surpassed him, he felt a lot of pressure. He started cultivating earlier than Mado, but his cultivation speed was not as fast as Mado's. This made him feel that he was not as good as Mado.
After working hard to cultivate, he was able to surpass Aunt Cui, but he still could not catch up to Mado. This time, with the help of food cultivation, he finally caught up to him.
However, after thinking about it for a while, his expression changed.
He had improved, but so had Mado. One had to know that Mado had consumed more food cultivation than him. If that was the case, wouldn't the gap between them still be there, and it would only get bigger and bigger?
His guess became reality. Not long after, Mado woke up. He had broken through to Stage Three Inner Force, and his strength had increased by a lot.
After learning the result, Wu You could not hide his envy and jealousy. He immediately turned around and meditated. He decided that he would not waste any time to cultivate in the future. He had to catch up to Mado and surpass Mado.
The eel monster was the fifth to wake up. When it woke up, it suddenly raised its head to the sky and howled. The sound could be heard even in the distant village. Many people came out.
The horns on the eel monster's head finally grew out. It suddenly jumped out of the water and soared into the sky. There was a layer of mist around its body.
Riding on the clouds, the eel monster had finally succeeded in transforming into a real dragon. After successfully transforming into a dragon, it could fly in the sky without the help of any immortal items. Moreover, its strength was comparable to that of a Soul Formation cultivator. This was the advantage of being a dragon.
After successfully transforming into a dragon, the excited Eel Demon immediately flew high into the sky and shuttled through the clouds. It was not yet night time, and the sky was still bright. A huge yellow dragon flying in the sky was quickly noticed by many people, and many people who saw it knelt down.
The dragon race had always had a good legend among the people. It was the totem of many humans. No one directly treated them as monsters.
"Come back. You're making too much noise. It won't do you any good!"
Gu Zheng's voice suddenly sounded in the eel monster's ears. It was stunned and quickly flew down from the sky. It understood Gu Zheng's warning. It had just successfully transformed into a dragon. If someone with ulterior motives discovered it, it was afraid that it would be in danger.
However, after successfully transforming into a dragon, it could not help but be excited.
Successfully transforming into a dragon was like a mortal becoming an immortal. It was indeed worth being excited. Not only did it increase its strength, but it also increased its lifespan.
Gu Zheng had not woken up yet. Wu You and the others were not afraid of the dragon in front of them. They had seen dragons bigger than this, so it was not rare.
The three of them even brought An Zhuo. They went forward and chatted with the dragon, asking about how it met Gu Zheng.
After knowing that Gu Zheng met it in Dragon Lake Town, they sighed. They did not expect that there was really a dragon in Dragon Lake Town. However, the dragon at that time was still an eel. It began to transform into a dragon after it exchanged for the dragon pearl from Gu Zheng.
At the same time, they also knew that the eel monster was no longer an eel. It had become a real dragon, just like how they had become immortals. They were already immortals.
This made them extremely envious. They did not know when they would be able to reach this realm. This was also the realm that they yearned for.
"Phew, I finally broke through!"
Gu Zheng, who opened his eyes, exhaled heavily. His strength had finally reached the Middle-stage of Void Return. He had not been able to break through for a long time, but with the help of this food cultivation, he finally had a breakthrough.
Although he had reached the Middle-stage of Void Return, Gu Zheng was not happy at all. This realm was enough for this place, but it was far from enough to deal with the great changes in the future. There were many existences who were much stronger than him. Even if he had two supreme treasures on him, he might not be able to protect himself.
This was not the future. Many treasures were either destroyed or missing. There were many innate treasures in the Untainted Land now. Perhaps an inconspicuous Little Goblin could take out an innate treasure. Gu Zheng was a living example. He was not strong, but he had two supreme treasures on him. He had killed several opponents who were stronger than him. He had even killed Jin Xian in the late stage.
"God, what's wrong?"
Aunt Cui suddenly raised her head and wiped her cheeks. Beads of sweat had already appeared on her forehead.
Normally, it should be evening now. The sun should have been in the west. However, the sun in the west had risen again. Not only one, but many suns had appeared at the same time.
"One, two, three. God, there are ten suns!"
Wu You raised his head and shouted in astonishment. Gu Zheng suddenly walked out of the carriage and looked up at the sky.
Ten suns had appeared at the same time. It was already evening and the sky was turning cold. As soon as the ten suns appeared, they instantly felt a wave of heat. Even Gu Zheng felt hot.
"Ten Golden Crows have appeared at the same time. The Grand Wizard Kuafu should be facing the Golden Crows soon!"
Gu Zheng looked at the sky and murmured. The Great War of Witch-Demons had finally come. It had come earlier than he had imagined. No, it had come much earlier.
Although the history books in the Untainted Land did not say how long after Nüwa had patched up the sky, Gu Zheng guessed that it would take at least a few hundred years. After all, a few hundred years was nothing in the Untainted Land. However, he did not expect that the Great War of Witch-Demons would come in less than two years.
When the ten suns appeared, the people had no way to make a living. The Wu people living on the earth were not very different from the Human Tribe. Many of them were like mortals, just that they were taller. They also had to bear the disaster brought by the ten suns.
It would be strange if the Grand Wizard could accept that his people suffered an innocent disaster. He had always thought that he was the ruler of the earth and that he was the king of the land.
As for the Goblin, the Goblin took over the Heaven Realm. In the Untainted Land, the Goblin was in the sky and the Goblin was on the earth. They had always lived in peace. It was the ten suns that broke the balance.
The ten suns were also the ten Golden Crows, the ten sons of the Demon Emperor Jun.
"Let's go back!"
Once the ten suns appeared, the war would soon come. The Great War of Witch-Demons was a life-and-death battle between the two tribes. It was different from the War of Gods. Although the War of Gods involved a lot of people, it was mostly in the world of cultivation. The mortal world was not affected much.
However, the Great War of Witch-Demons was a full-scale war. Many mortal worlds were affected. It could be said that once the war started, the Human Tribe in the Untainted Land would have no paradise and would also suffer.
However, the Human Tribe was large in number. Even if they suffered, there would be many survivors. Compared to the Goblin, the Human Tribe would definitely have the most survivors. Perhaps this was the reason why the three Sages did not take action.
Although the Sages did not take action, it did not mean that the Human Tribe did not take action. Many Human Immortals took part in the Great War of Witch-Demons. There were even Human Immortals who worked together to destroy a tribe of the Wu people. There were also Human Immortals who fought against the Goblin and killed many demons. The main reason was that the war between the two tribes affected too many Human Immortals and caused them to retaliate.
It was also after the great war that the immortals of the human race began to unite. Slowly, they formed their own sects. Before the Great War of the Witch-Demon Race, it was a system of a master leading several disciples. The famous Three Pure Ones were the same. They established their own doctrines, but they only took in a few disciples. Their disciples also only took in disciples, unlike the sects of later generations.
The sects were formed and expanded after the War of Gods. Some of the big sects like the Emei Sect were formed after the Great War of Witch-Demons. However, most of them became famous after the War of Gods. Many Human Immortals withered and were deified. This made the sects, which were originally independent cultivators, grow stronger.
