Waves of aroma wafted from a side hall next to the small kitchen.
On the long table in front of Li Yu, there were already several delicious dishes, which were quickly swept away by the demon girl and Qing'er. Li Yu didn't even have time to take a few bites.
Not long after, Xu Yi came out of the small kitchen again, holding a jade plate in both hands, and said: "This dish is called Jinxiu Shanhe. It is cooked with six kinds of seasonal fresh vegetables. It is based on the ancient culture of the two countries of Chen and Shu."
A dish created by the cuisine, please try it with Brother Li and the Holy Lady..."
Li Yu sandwiched a piece of diced lotus root, which had a moderately crisp texture and a fresh air, which just dispelled the greasy feeling brought by the first two meat dishes and revitalized one's appetite.
He glanced at the jade plate holding the dishes and said in surprise: "Is there another formation under this plate?"
Xu Yi explained: "This dish needs to be at a certain temperature to maintain the best taste. Before serving the dish, the container needs to be heated. The function of this formation is to maintain the temperature of the plate unchanged.
, always maintain the best taste of this dish..."
Li Yu glanced at him, and he had nothing else to say except professionalism.
The formations are engraved on the bottom of the plate just to maintain the best taste of the dishes. Kunlun's rare treasures worth hundreds of spirit coins are not so particular.
Even the place where they eat now was suggested by Xu Yi.
This side hall is not far or close to the small kitchen. According to Xu Yi, the time that passes from the time a dish is taken out of the pot to the time it is eaten by people also has a great impact on the taste of the dish.
Some dishes are best eaten when they are freshly cooked, so the dining location should not be too far from the kitchen.
Some dishes need to be left for a while in order to achieve the best taste.
In order to stay away from fireworks and not affect their sense of smell, the place where they try the dishes cannot be too close to the kitchen, but it cannot be too far away, otherwise, when the dishes are served, they will miss the best tasting period.
Li Yu didn't know if Xu Yi's theory was correct, but he had lived in two generations, and the food this guy cooked was indeed the most delicious he had ever tasted.
Even a simple dish of stir-fried vegetables can be so different.
This is called professionalism.
Taking advantage of Xu Yi's time in the Xuanyin Sect, Li Yu decided to learn a few tricks from him. With his current cooking skills, he really couldn't handle Yaonu, a woman who likes the new and hates the old. After returning to Kunlun, he can also cook for A Li and
Zhou Zixuan gives it a try.
After cooking ten dishes in a row, the ingredients prepared by Xu Yi had been used up. Li Yu and the others also ate about the same. Yaonv and Qing'er were walking outside to eat, while Li Yu was in the palace asking Xu Yi for advice on cooking skills.
During the learning process, Li Yu couldn't help but sigh, no wonder the dishes he cooked were so delicious.
His pursuit of details in every dish is simply outrageous.
The selection of ingredients, the size of the heat, the cooking time, and even how long it takes to eat it after it is cooked are all very particular.
And this is what he summarized and sorted out after countless experiments.
How long will this take?
Li Yu couldn't help but ask: "Do you usually study these things instead of practicing?"
Xu Yidao: "No, these are all things I slowly researched while practicing."
Although he said this, Li Yu didn't know whether he was cooking in addition to practicing or practicing in addition to cooking. But what is certain is that this guy's talent is definitely more than that.
If he could spend all his time practicing, his cultivation would definitely improve faster.
Such a genius was willing to be a cook for them. Li Yu couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, so he took out another bottle of Tuomai Pill and said, "Brother Xu, I'm really busy today. I've cooked so many dishes myself, and you still bothered to do so."
Teach me, please accept this gift..."
The important relatives and friends around him have already formed the Five Spirit Vein Pills, and there is no way he can use up the Vein Extension Pills, so he might as well continue to use them for investment.
Judging from many contacts, Xiao Xu is a very good person.
Although he is in the devil's path, it is obvious that he is a friend worth making.
Xu Yi stared blankly at the pill bottle in front of him. There were at least a dozen pills in this bottle. Counting the previous ones, he had saved at least ten years of practice in less than an hour here.
Apart from the shock in his heart, his eyes were also a little moist.
For many years, relatives, friends, and fellow disciples all scorned his hobby of cooking. Many people thought that he was not doing his job properly, that he was an anomaly among immortal cultivators, that he was a disgrace to his sect, and that he was wasting his talent for cultivation...
…
Many times, even Xu Yi himself had doubts about him.
Can’t immortal cultivators have their own hobbies?
But today, his faith is stronger than ever.
Why do you like cooking?
His Xu Yi's dish is worth two Pulse-Opening Pills. Who else in the world of immortality can do this?
He looked at Li Yu with a look of emotion on his face.
Brother Li not only gave him the gift of elixirs, but also recognized him.
For Xu Yi, the latter is even more important.
He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Li Yu smiled and said, "Take it, I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you a lot in the next few days."
Xu Yi patted his chest and said, "Brother Li, don't worry, whatever dishes you want to learn, I know everything and I will definitely teach you!"
After a while, Li Yu said: "In addition to making whitebait into fish balls, is there any other way to make it delicious?"
Fish balls are just one of the ways to make whitebait. Xu Yi's own recipe records eighteen ways to make whitebait.
"There are many ways to make whitebait, some of which are..." He was about to tell Li Yu all, when his tone suddenly paused, and then he said: "There are more than a hundred ways to make it. If Brother Li wants to learn it, I will teach you all."
Li Yu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you first, Brother Xu."
There are more than 100 methods, even if you do one every day, you can do it for more than three months, and the witch will not get tired of it so quickly.
At this time, Xu Yi was also thinking in his mind. There are more than 100 kinds of Vein-Opening Pills in one dish, which is more than 200. It is more than enough for him to cultivate the two spiritual veins of water and fire to the peak of foundation building.
By then, he will be able to form the elixir within ten years, and his lifespan will be increased to five hundred years.
By then, Nascent Soul will no longer be a dream for him, and he can even have some hope for the legendary god transformation...
After fantasizing for a while, he looked at Li Yu again and asked: "Brother Li, are you and the Holy Girl of the Xuanyin Sect really not Taoists?"
Li Yu waved her hand and said, "You misunderstood, we are just good friends."
Xu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good. Only the noble sect's Qin Keren, Fairy Qin, can be worthy of a talent like Brother Li that has not been seen in thousands of years..."
He didn't notice that Li Yu was winking at him crazily, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Fairy Qin not only has outstanding appearance, but also has an extraordinary temperament, just like a fairy from the heavenly palace. Is it true..."
Nangong Chan stood at the entrance of the palace, looking at him coldly.
Xu Yi suddenly felt a chill all over his body. After looking back, he immediately stood up and said, "Brother Li, I'm going back first..."
…
Xu Yi left Lingchan Peak for the time being. He said he would sort out the recipes and come back tomorrow to teach Li Yu how to make a hundred ways to make whitebait.
Nangong Chan leaned against a stone pillar in the palace and said disdainfully: "Do you men all like Qin Keren?"
Li Yu had a different view on this and said: "Of course not. Although Senior Sister Qin is excellent, she is actually not suitable to be a Taoist companion."
This is what Li Yu is saying. Senior Sister Qin has countless admirers and is the goddess in the hearts of countless people. However, her temperament is too cold and boring. She can only be the superior Qin Fairy and is not the most suitable Taoist companion.
Candidate.
Nangong Chan was surprised that Li Yu actually said something bad about Qin Keren.
She asked: "Why?"
Li Yu said truthfully: "Senior Sister Qin is so boring."
Nangong Chan deeply agreed and nodded: "I have told you a long time ago that that woman is very boring. She is nothing but spiritual practice. Anyone who marries her as a Taoist companion will be suffocated to death. If I were a man, I would not marry her.
she……"
As she spoke, her tone softened a little, and she said with emotion: "However, a person like her should not be a Taoist companion. Who can be worthy of her..."
As a rival, although she didn't like Qin Keren very much, she actually felt some sympathy for him.
Li Yu glanced at her and asked, seemingly unintentionally: "What about you?"
Nangongchan straightened her chest and said: "Qin Keren doesn't need a Taoist companion, and I certainly don't need one either. The love between children affects the practice the most. Do you think everyone is like you..."
…
Xu Yi had just flown out of Lingchan Peak, wiped off cold sweat, found a secluded place, and took out two pill bottles from the storage space.
He counted and found that the total number of pulse-opening pills in the two bottles was exactly twenty, no more and no less.
If there is nothing wrong with this elixir, after he takes it, the two spiritual veins will be able to expand ten times each. Adding his previous two times, in terms of mana alone, he is already very close to the middle stage of foundation building.
He didn't need to have any doubts about the elixir Li Yu gave him.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Xu Yi immediately took these pills one after another.
The pulse-stretching feeling that kept coming from his body made him extremely excited.
The Pulse Extension Pill is real, and his cultivation level is also improving at an incredible speed.
The feeling of top-quality elixirs is just different. After taking twenty elixirs in succession, his body did not feel any discomfort. Even the most talented and core disciples of the sect did not receive this kind of treatment.
After a long time, Xu Yi finally calmed down.
He returned to the mountain peak where Xuanyin Cult temporarily arranged to live as quickly as possible. Time was urgent. He had to hurry up and come up with more than 80 other ways to make whitebait. This was not an easy task.
Xuanyin Sect, somewhere on a mountain peak.
Several simple stone halls are where the low-level disciples of the Soul Refining Sect will stay during this demonic ceremony.
As soon as Xu Yi returned here, he was surrounded by several figures.
"Senior Brother Xu, is that really Young Master Kunlun?"
"What did he tell you?"
"What is your relationship?"
…
The foundation-building disciples of the Soul Refining Sect who had heard about this a long time ago surrounded him.
Ever since foundation building, Xu Yi has never experienced this feeling of being surrounded by people. Because he met Brother Li, his life has undergone major changes.
Xu Yi enjoyed the attention of others and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just talked about old times with Brother Li, drank a few glasses of wine, and Brother Li also asked me some questions about my cooking skills."
"Ah, Young Master Kunlun, is he also interested in cooking?"
"No wonder he became friends with Senior Brother Xu."
"I never expected that such a talented person would have such unique interests."
"Senior Brother Xu is so lucky. This kind of thing can happen to you..."
These disciples of the Soul Refining Sect were very surprised by this matter. The future leader of the second largest sect of the Righteous Path must be one of the giants in the world of immortal cultivation. In their opinion, he should be mysterious and aloof.
But for such a talented person to ask for advice on cooking skills from a demonic disciple, it is really... too arrogant.
It does not conform to their understanding of the identity of the young master of Kunlun.
However, this seems to explain why, as the young master of Kunlun, he became friends with Xu Yi, an ordinary demon disciple.
Have common interests.
For men, this reason is enough to become friends.
Although they also feel that for immortal cultivators, this kind of thing is not a good job, but who knows that someone else is the young master of Kunlun? With his identity, it seems that even this hobby has become elegant.
"Haha, you are a cultivator of immortality, but if you don't practice well, you want to be a cook. Unexpectedly, the second largest sect of the righteous path will let such a person be the future leader. It seems that Kunlun is not far away from falling..."
At this time, a strange voice came from behind the crowd.
When Xu Yi heard this, his face immediately darkened and he said angrily: "Huang, what did you say!"
The young man who had just mocked Xu Yi walked out of the crowd and said disdainfully: "I thought Young Master Kunlun was so great, but it turns out that he, like you, likes to be a lowly cook..."
A female disciple of the Soul Refining Sect said displeasedly: "Senior Brother Huang, how can you say that!"
Even she felt that if she liked cooking, she would not be able to show off her skills, but that was Kunlun Li Yu. He said that Senior Brother Xu was just that, so talking about the person she admired made her very unhappy.
Xu Yi's face had completely turned cold.
No matter how Huang Wei mocked him, he didn't care.
But he can't insult Brother Li.
He looked at this person with a sharp look in his eyes.
Seeing his appearance, the young man surnamed Huang laughed and said, "Why, if you don't accept it, let's fight. If you win, I apologize to you. If you lose, how about kneeling down and kowtowing and calling me grandpa?"
"
Xu Yi looked at him indifferently and said: "You lose, I want you to kneel down and admit your mistake."
Huang Wei smiled instead of being angry and said: "Okay..."
When he spoke, he did not hide the disdain on his face.
Xu Yi has no background in the sect. Although he has a master in the Nascent Soul stage, he is not favored. The two had friction during the Qi refining stage. After that, he will look for Xu Yi whenever he has the opportunity.
trouble.
He had already built the foundation and had expanded the veins for ten levels, while Xu Yi had only expanded the veins for two levels at most. He expected that Xu Yi would not dare to challenge.
If it were before, Xu Yi would certainly not dare to challenge.
But today, he is no longer the useless guy he used to be.
There was a tense situation between the two of them, and the disciples of the Soul Refining Sect subconsciously dispersed to give them space.
Huang Wei sneered and took the lead, but did not use magic. Although the sect did not prohibit the disciples from fighting, they still had to pay attention to the rules. After all, Xu Yi had a master in the Nascent Soul stage. If he accidentally destroyed him,
Still a little troublesome.
The magic power in his body surged, and his figure disappeared on the spot almost instantly. With a simple punch, he set off a sonic boom and hit Xu Yi's chest.
Several Soul Refining Sect disciples who had not established foundation were affected by the power of this punch and could not help but take a few steps back.
Although the disciples who had just established the foundation could still stand on the same spot, their faces were a little pale. If Huang Wei's tenth-level punch had landed on them, at least a few bones would have been broken and they would have to recover for several months.
Xu Yi's strength was similar to theirs, and he was far from Huang Wei's opponent.
boom!
After a dull sound, everyone's faces showed disbelief.
Facing such a powerful punch from Huang Wei, Xu Yi stood there without even moving a step.
He just stretched out his hand and caught Huang Wei's menacing punch.
Huang Wei's fist was held by Xu Yi. Due to the severe pain, his face was extremely ferocious and his body could not help but bend. However, the pain from his fist was nothing compared to the shock in his heart.
His heart was shaken. Didn't Xu Yi just build the foundation? But the mana fluctuations coming from his body at this moment were already close to the middle stage of the foundation construction!
"too slow."
Xu Yi clasped one hand behind his back, looked at Huang Wei calmly under the shocked eyes of everyone, and said calmly: "It's amazing that you have the courage to challenge me, but this is the only thing I can praise you for..."
