The people who were frozen into ice blocks naturally died, including many cultivators with the Golden Immortal realm. Only Lin Dongliang survived.
For Lin Dongliang, who is in the late Jinxian stage, the extreme cold that can freeze people into ice cubes only makes him feel a bone-chilling cold and his body becomes stiff for a moment.
However, the hollow 'nest' was not only filled with extremely cold air, but also a humanoid monster emerged from it.
The monster was all white, and although it was in human form, it had no facial features, hands or feet. After it ran out of the nest, it immediately tried to escape, but was beaten to death by an angry Lin Dongliang.
After the monster died, it turned into a puddle of cold liquid and went deep into the ground, and nothing else has existed since.
At that time, Lin Dongliang did not feel any discomfort, but after returning to the cave at night, the extremely cold air suddenly appeared in his body. At first, Lin Dongliang could easily suppress the extremely cold air, but after a month, the extremely cold air
It had reached the point where he could no longer suppress it. Lin Dongliang had no choice but to suppress the extremely cold energy by burning his cultivation base.
Now, more than a hundred years later, Lin Dongliang, who was originally in the late Golden Immortal stage, has used his cultivation to suppress the extremely cold air, and his true cultivation level has dropped to the early stage of the Golden Immortal stage, and there is a continuing downward trend.
This really made the Lin family anxious.
Originally there were two cultivators in the Lin family's Golden Immortal realm, but the other one died in the mine that year. To this day, no one in Lin Dongliang's clan has the possibility of breaking through to the Golden Immortal realm in a short period of time.
According to Lin Dongliang's current situation, he can last for another thirty years at most, and within thirty years, who knows what level his cultivation will fall to.
Only a few people know about Lin Dongliang's illness. If this matter spreads, let alone whether the Chen family will have any thoughts about the Lin family. The sect behind the Lin family alone may have to find another force to replace the Lin family's position.
After all, if a large Immortal Cultivator family doesn't even have a Golden Immortal, it will be untenable in the ancient times.
After Lin Dongliang finished telling what happened that year, he sighed and then said: "Friend Gu Taoist, you said that when the cold air appeared, I held my breath in time. When I killed the monster, I didn't even touch it with my hands. Why?
How can you have this extremely cold air in your body?"
"Some things cannot be explained by common sense."
Gu Zheng paused for a moment, then asked: "Fellow Daoist Lin, is the place where the incident happened still there?"
"This happened. That section of the mine tunnel has been sealed. Fellow Daoist Bai, do you want to go and take a look?"
Daluo Jinxian, who originally gave Lin Dongliang the prescription, also visited the place where the incident occurred, but found nothing.
"That's right, I want to go over and have a look now." Gu Zheng said.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, you also know that my illness was inexplicably acquired in that place, so you must know that it is dangerous to go to the place where the incident occurred, so I hope that no matter what happens there, you will not blame the Lin family.
Lin Dongliang said seriously.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Lin, Bai is not that kind of person." Gu Zheng said.
"Okay, then I'll arrange for someone to take you there."
Lin Dongliang immediately sent a message to an immortal cultivator from the Lin family, and soon the immortal cultivator appeared in the cave.
Lin Dongliang explained to the immortal cultivator named Lin Xin, and Lin Xin immediately took Gu Zheng to the mine.
There was no time wasted on the way. Lin Xin and Gu Zheng flew all the way down the mountain and soon arrived at the Wujin Mine shared by the Chen family and the Lin family.
This year, the Wujin Mine happened to be mined by the Lin family, so there was no need to talk. Lin Xin and Gu Zheng soon appeared outside the incident site.
The mine tunnel where the incident occurred has been sealed. Lin Xin first unlocked the seal on the stone wall, and then blew the stone wall down.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, I won't go in with you." Lin Xin said.
"It's okay, I can just go in by myself." Gu Zheng smiled slightly.
The mine is a little damp and exudes the smell of pit wood maintenance. Although it has been a hundred and fifty years, the temperature is still obviously getting colder as we get closer to the place where the past happened.
Gu Zheng had already seen the place where the monster died. There was an abnormal white color on the ground there. Gu Zheng had also seen the place where the monster died. There was also a large amount of extremely pure but unmined black gold there, as well as the one that sprang out.
The space of extreme cold and monsters.
"Did you find anything?"
Stopping at the place where the monster died, Gu argued with the spirit of the weapon.
"Go and have a look in that space before talking." Qi Ling said.
The temperature in the space is not as cold as the place where the monster died. It is like a broken eggshell. Apart from the extremely pure Wujin, there seems to be nothing special.
"What do you think of this matter?" Qi Ling asked Gu Zheng.
"The extremely cold air in the ancestor of the Lin family is alive, but no living creatures related to the extremely cold air have been found here. Although this is the first time I have encountered this situation, I feel that the inner body of the ancestor of the Lin family is alive.
The extremely cold air belongs to a mysterious energy, is it the power of a curse?" Gu Zheng speculated.
Curses are a type of witchcraft. Before Gu Zheng was on earth, he had come into contact with people who were good at witchcraft. For example, Qiao Shan from the Demon Sect, he had also read some books about witchcraft.
The art of curses was mentioned. However, there is no book that says that curses can also appear in this form. It seems that this kind of power is invisible in common sense.
"This is indeed the power of the curse, but I have only heard Master Tiexian mention the power of the curse that can be physically manifested. Moreover, Master Tiexian encountered a similar situation back then, and he was also looking for a kind of mineral.
When I was young, I encountered this kind of humanoid monster in the 'nest' of the mine. However, what Master Tiexian encountered back then was the gas of fire poison, the power of the curse that invaded the body, and its attribute was also fire poison."
Qi Ling Dao.
"How did Master Tiexian resolve this matter back then?"
Gu Zheng was curious. There were so many wonders in this vast world. He didn't expect that even Tiexian had encountered the trouble that the head of the Lin family had encountered.
"Lord Tie Xian is a holy immortal. He can get rid of the poisonous gas with just a thought. However, Lord Tie Xian also said that humanoid monsters are naturally derived wonders in the world. It is a pity that they did not wait until they broke out of their shells automatically.
, otherwise the strength will not be inferior to Daluo Jinxian."
The weapon spirit paused for a moment, then continued: "For Master Tie Xian, the power of the curse can be easily resolved, but for you, how do you resolve the power of the curse?"
"Let me explore one side carefully first."
Gu Zheng started to destroy it. He dug a deep ravine in Tang Mo's 'nest' and the place where the monster died, and searched it over and over again with his spiritual mind.
"What are you looking for?" Qi Ling asked curiously.
"I'm looking for the source." Gu Zheng said.
"What to do to find the source?" The weapon spirit became even more curious.
"If this place is like the source of evil experienced in the Blood Tide Restricted Area, and it has a source, then the method to solve this matter will most likely have to change because of this. But since no source has been found, then what we will face
There is only the power of curse. I have a solution and I think it should work." Gu Zheng said.
"What method?" Qi Ling asked.
"Death to death! Since the power of the curse is to make people die, will the power of the curse disappear after the person dies?"
Gu Zheng's words made Qi Ling's eyes light up: "What you said makes some sense, but will the ancestor of the Lin family agree? What's more, what if it fails?"
"Since the power of the curse has no source, it shouldn't be that difficult to deal with. I think the method of risking death and living later will definitely work." Gu Zheng said.
Now that he had an idea, Gu Zheng did not stay in the mining area for long, and soon he returned to Lin Dongliang's cave.
"How is Fellow Daoist Bai?"
As soon as Gu Zheng entered the cave and sat down, Lin Dongliang asked eagerly.
"There is a way, it just depends on whether you dare to try it." Gu Zheng said.
Lin Dongliang frowned, as if he had thought of something: "What method did Fellow Daoist Bai say?"
"Death to death!"
"Why!"
Gu Zheng's words made Lin Dongliang sigh.
"Fellow ancient Taoist, the senior Daluo Jinxian back then also said that Lin should risk his life and try to survive." Lin Dongliang had a wry smile on his face.
"Did Fellow Daoist Lin discover after his soul left the body that there is no way to get rid of the extremely cold air? It not only exists in your body, but also attaches to your soul after your soul leaves the body.
And it makes you suffer so much that you almost die because of it?" Gu Zheng said.
"How does Fellow Daoist Bai know?" Lin Dongliang's eyes widened in shock.
"It's just because I have a more thorough view. I already knew this when I visited your body before," Gu Zheng said.
"sharp!"
Lin Dongliang extended his thumb to Gu Zheng, and then said worriedly: "Fellow Daoist Bai, I have a feeling that if my soul leaves my body again, then I will really die, like ashes! So, this is a death sentence.
And does the post-generation method really work?”
"Fellow Daoist Lin, since I know the consequences of your soul leaving the body last time, yet you still come up with this method, I naturally think it will work." Gu Zheng said.
Lin Dongliang frowned and rubbed his hands together uneasily, seeming a little undecided.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, except for this method, there may really be no other way! Although the Great Luo Jinxian gave you the elixir prescription, let's not talk about whether the refined elixir is effective or not.
We haven’t collected everything yet! What’s more, there are still risks in alchemy. Do you think you, or the Lin family, can wait any longer?”
Gu Zheng has clearly seen the situation of the Lin family, so he feels that Lin Dongliang will not refuse his proposal, and the struggle and hesitation will soon turn into determination.
Gu Zheng's words made Lin Dongliang fall into silence. After a moment, he sighed again.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, what is this extremely cold air that is causing me so much harm?" Lin Dongliang said through gritted teeth.
"The extremely cold air in your body is actually the power of the curse," Gu Zheng said.
"Although I didn't dare to ask the senior Daluo Jinxian what the thing in my body was, after so many years, I also guessed that I might have been cursed by that thing! It's just that such a thing as a curse can actually produce
The tangible power is really incredible.”
Lin Dongliang shook his head, and his expression turned serious: "As Fellow Daoist Bai said, neither the Lin family nor I can wait any longer! I wonder how Fellow Daoist Bai is going to let me risk my life and survive?"
"I'm going to make you a dietary repair that will put all your body functions in a state of suspended animation. The safest way is to do this very thoroughly, almost like real death." Gu Zheng said.
"Food therapy?" Lin Dongliang's eyes widened.
"Yes, I am also an immortal chef myself." Gu Zheng said.
"No wonder Fellow Daoist Bai has such cultivation at such a young age. It seems that he should belong to the Twelve Immortal Chefs sect."
Gu Zheng has not clarified Lin Dongliang's sudden realization. He can think whatever he likes!
"Fellow Daoist Bai, if it is possible to risk death and survive, then what should I do if my physique has been changed by the power of the curse?" Lin Dongliang asked.
"It is a fait accompli that the physique has been changed. It can only be repaired later through elixirs or other means." Gu Zheng said.
"Okay, then just do what Taoist Bai said!" Lin Dongliang gritted his teeth and said.
"Okay, before I give you dietary therapy, there are two more things that I need to explain first. The first thing is that you have to tell your family members that you need to take some risks even if you put yourself to death. If you are really unfortunate enough to die because of this,
, this matter has nothing to do with me. The second thing, as for the reward for helping you treat your disease, I only need your genus of ginseng. Of course, the reward is based on my curing you.
Under the premise." Gu Zheng said.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Bai!"
Lin Dongliang first clasped his fists at Gu Zheng. After all, Gu Zheng was talking fairly and had no intention of raising the price. Then he spoke again: "There is something I want to say first. My North
The quality of the reed ginseng is not good, but I am still raising it now!”
"Not in good condition?" Gu Zheng frowned.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, follow me."
Lin Dongliang took Gu Zheng to the fairy grass room in the cave, and Gu Zheng also saw the Beili fairy ginseng still growing in the soil.
"When I got this Northern Reed Immortal Ginseng, there was a big fight between several forces. As a result, I accidentally injured this Northern Reed Immortal Ginseng. However, it was not a serious injury. As it was nourished in such an immortal formation, I guess.
It will take thirty years to fully recover.”
When Lin Dongliang was explaining, Gu Zheng had already explored the Beili Xian Ginseng. It was indeed not a big damage. If it was transplanted into the ancient space, it would probably take at most three years to restore it to its original state.
For cultivators, let alone three years, even thirty years, or three hundred years is not a long time.
"It's not a big problem, that's it." Gu Zheng smiled slightly.
"Okay, then I will talk to the family members now."
Lin Dongliang had already begun to transmit the message to his tribe, while Gu Zheng closed his eyes and went through the selected ingredients in his mind again to see if there was anything he hadn't counted.
"How difficult does it feel?" Qi Ling asked.
"If my thinking is correct, the difficulty of doing this dietary therapy is only 30%." Gu Zheng said.
"oh?"
Qi Ling's eyes widened: "Cooking is your specialty. Since your ideas are correct, why is there still a 30% difficulty? Even when you were cooking Immortal Fruit Food Cultivation and Holy Fruit Food Cultivation, you had never been like this.
Case."
"This time is different from before."
Gu Zheng looked very excited: "This is a brand new attempt. If the attempt is successful, it will make great progress in my understanding of diet!"
Hearing what Gu Zheng said, Qi Ling became even more curious: "What on earth is going on?"
"I will add things that are not ingredients to this dietary therapy. I have never tried this method before." Gu Zheng said with admiration.
"Then what do you want to add to the diet?" Qi Ling asked.
"Keep it secret!"
Gu Zheng also learned how to sell weapons and skills.
After a while.
No matter what Lin Dongliang told his tribesmen, or what their tribesmen thought about this matter, Lin Dongliang had taken care of his tribesmen anyway.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, where do you want to give me dietary therapy?" Lin Dongliang asked.
"In this cave, prepare a stone room for me." Gu Zheng said.
"There are plenty of free stone chambers. Fellow Taoist Bai, please come with me."
Lin Dongliang brought Gu Zheng to an empty stone room, and then said: "You don't need me to prepare the ingredients for the dietotherapy for Fellow Daoist Bai? If you don't need me, I'll go out and don't disturb Fellow Daoist Bai, so he can concentrate on cooking."
"I have most of the ingredients here, but you need to bring me two special things. One is your blood, and the other is a piece of your divine mind!"
When Gu Zheng finished speaking, regardless of whether Lin Dongliang was surprised or not, Qi Ling's eyes widened: "You want to add Lin Dongliang's spiritual thoughts to the diet? This, this, how to cook this!"
The unprecedented stuttering clearly explained Qi Ling's shock.
"Has Lord Tiexian ever cooked food with anything other than food ingredients?" Gu Zheng asked.
"As far as I know, there is no such thing, let alone someone else's spiritual thoughts!"
After the shock, Qi Ling seemed very excited. Only now did she truly understand why Gu Zheng had said before that if this attempt was successful, it would greatly improve his understanding of the way of eating! This approach
In the eyes of Qi Ling, this is undoubtedly land reclamation!
According to Gu Zheng's request, Lin Dongliang released a jade bottle of blood, and then sealed a spiritual thought that contained many things in a jade slip.
Lin Dongliang had already left the stone room. Gu Zheng had also taken out all the ingredients for this dietary therapy, and then he stared at the ingredients in a daze.
"My Lord Tie Immortal! Immortal noodles, immortal wine, Lingxi Incense, Soul-Destroying Grass, Bloody Bala Flower, Phoenix Flesh, Thousand Corpse Oil, Buddha's Light Sandalwood, the blood and divine thoughts of the ancestors of the Lin family, this is your successor.
What to do!"
The weapon spirit widened his eyes and murmured to himself, because the things used in this ancient battle were really special. Some of them were not ingredients at all, and some were even poisons.
"Everything in the world is divided into yin and yang. It can be used to harm people, but it may not be used to save people. It just depends on how and where it is used."
Gu Zheng murmured as he looked at the ingredients. Cautiously, he once again deduced the effects of these combinations in his mind.
Qi Ling was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "Gu Zheng, you look very interesting now. I have only seen this kind of almost selfless, but extremely charming look in Master Tiexian before!"
"What?"
Being brought back from his thoughts by the weapon spirit, Gu Zheng asked subconsciously.
"nothing."
Qi Ling covered her mouth and snickered, but she couldn't hide the blush on her face. However, she didn't see Gu Zheng focus on the ingredients as soon as he said a word.
