After Master Duan left, Die Ling winked and smiled at Gu Zheng.
"What's wrong?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Master made a lot of money this time, right?" Die Ling smiled naughtily.
"It's okay, okay, what can I do? I'm desperate too!" Gu Zheng looked distressed.
After chatting and joking with Die Ling for a while, Gu Zheng cooked two dishes for her, and then went into seclusion to practice.
It's said to be a retreat, but actually it won't last too long this time. After all, it won't be long before Master Duan has to make food and practice. Die Ling will fall into a deep sleep again within a month. Before she falls into a deep sleep, Gu Zheng will also have to give him some food.
She just needs to do some food repair.
The purpose of this retreat in Guzheng was to stabilize my cultivation level, and secondly to understand the traces of Tao that I had realized when I was cooking immortal ingredients.
Gu Zheng spent three days to stabilize his realm, and then entered the prehistoric space.
During the period of retreat in Guzheng, Butterfly Spirit has always been in the ancient space.
Feeling that Gu Zheng had entered the prehistoric space, Die Ling immediately opened his eyes and ended his cultivation state.
Although Butterfly Spirit is transformed from a divine beast and her strength develops in a very strange way, this does not mean that she does not need to practice.
After not seeing each other for three days, Die Ling showed a strong attachment to Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng stayed in the prehistoric space for a total of an hour, so she followed Gu Zheng step by step for an hour, almost all her eyes were on him.
On Gu Zheng's body.
It has to be said that there are dedicated people taking care of the prehistoric space, which is indeed a little different from before Guzheng. At least the lawn is neatly mowed, and there are some cooked fairy grains, fairy vegetables and other ingredients. Before Guzheng, I was too lazy to pick them. Now,
It was also collected and organized by Butterfly Spirit.
Immediately after entering the prehistoric space, Gu Zheng once again entered the state of cultivation. This time he wanted to understand the traces of Tao that he had realized when cooking colorful venison.
The traces of Tao appeared in Gu Zheng's mind in the form of light spots. Gu Zheng used his spiritual mind to penetrate into it, and what he saw were still the light patterns he saw in the flesh foam.
Gu Zheng's spiritual thoughts shuttle back and forth in the lines of light, experience it carefully, it is also constantly changing its shape in the shuttle of Gu Zheng's spiritual thoughts, as if it is revealing its mystery to Gu Zheng.
Traveling over and over again, touching over and over again, everything seemed to be very fast, and yet it seemed to be very slow. Gu Zheng was selflessly immersed in this state, until a crisp sound came from his mind, and his mind
Quickly returning to his position, the light in front of him dimmed. The light spot was still the same, but Gu Zheng had already broken away from the state of enlightenment.
"It feels like it only happened in a moment, but actually half a month has passed!"
Gu Zheng stood up, shook his head and smiled.
Yes, half a month has indeed passed!
Knowing that the retreat time cannot be too long, Gu Zheng will set a time in his mind before entering the selfless state of cultivation. When the time is up, he will break away from the selfless state.
After understanding this kind of thing, it is not surprising that there is no result for once, and the ancient struggle that was lost for this reason has entered the prehistoric space again.
After not seeing each other for half a month, when Die Ling saw Gu Zheng, the circles in his eyes turned red, and what he said made Gu Zheng even a little embarrassed.
Not daring to follow Die Ling's temper any longer, Gu Zheng quickly changed the subject, and finally used delicious food to make Die Ling forget the pain of the brief separation.
"Am I quarreling with this old man?"
Die Ling helplessly said something to Gu Zheng who was preparing delicious food for her.
Last time when Gu Zheng was preparing to cook delicious food for Die Ling, Master Duan came to Gu Zheng to discuss food cultivation. This time when Gu Zheng was preparing to cook delicious food for Die Ling, Master Duan, who had already recovered, came again.
Gu Zheng invited Master Duan into the cave, made him wait for a while, and then made Danyuan Food Cultivation for him.
After Master Duan left with the food cultivator, Gu Zheng started cooking. After a while, a strong change occurred in the immortal energy outside.
Regardless of what kind of envy and shock this Danyuan food cultivation would arouse, Gu Zheng made four dishes and one soup, and he and Die Ling stayed in the cave and had a delicious meal.
"Master, I will fall asleep in ten days!"
After eating, Die Ling, who was clearing away the tableware, looked at Gu Zheng, who was sipping tea, and said something.
"I will go into seclusion later, and I will wake up on time in ten days to make food and repair for you. How long will you sleep for this time?" Gu Zheng asked.
"This time the sleeping time will be a little longer, it should last two months!"
Butterfly Spirit paused for a moment, then smiled: "When I wake up from my deep sleep this time, my body will be fully grown, and I will be able to enjoy the delicacies cooked by my master unscrupulously!"
"Okay, when you wake up again, I will cook you a big meal to celebrate!" Gu Zheng said.
"It's a deal!"
Die Ling smiled happily, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.
Gu Zheng nodded: "It's a deal!"
Entering the state of cultivation again, Gu Zheng set a time limit of ten days. In that state of selflessness, the ten days passed very quickly.
When Gu Zheng woke up again, the butterfly spirit was about to feel hungry.
I made a beast spirit food ritual for the butterfly spirit, and the butterfly spirit fell into a deep sleep after eating it.
"By the time you wake up again, the weapon spirit will have been awake for a while, and then there will be a lot of excitement around me again!"
Looking at the sleeping butterfly spirit, Gu Zheng thought of his hometown and the days when Miao Miao accompanied him and the weapon spirit would preach to Miao Miao with a tigerish face from time to time.
Without wasting too much time, Gu Zheng once again entered the state of cultivation and understood the traces of the Tao. This time Gu Zheng set the time for one month, and the weapon spirit should have woken up by then.
Divine thoughts shuttle around the mysterious light, over and over again.
Although he failed to comprehend the traces of the Tao in the first two times, Gu Zheng did not gain nothing. From the very beginning when he obtained the traces of the Tao, he knew that the traces of the Tao were related to the improvement of food ingredients. This has already shown that for this
He has a relatively strong sense of the traces of Tao.
Unknowingly, twenty-eight days have passed, and the spiritual thoughts of the ancient struggle are still circling around the light.
Suddenly, the mysterious light became brighter in Gu Zheng's eyes. This was an unprecedented situation! At that moment, Gu Zheng saw a lot and understood a lot. In the end, all the mysterious light disappeared, but Gu Zheng was there.
What he saw and understood in an instant was truly grasped by him. This is exactly the way to improve the ingredients!
"good!"
Gu Zheng, who successfully understood the traces of Tao and woke up from the retreat state early, couldn't help but cheer.
When he first obtained the trace of the Tao, Gu Zheng once told Die Ling that it had two possibilities, one was to see the inside of the seed, and the other was that the seed would take root and germinate.
The size of a seed is limited, and being able to see the inside of the seed represents a small harvest. But if the seed can take root and germinate, it is a large and relatively long-term harvest.
However, there was a gap between the facts and predictions. What Gu Zheng didn't expect was that he saw the inside of the seed, but the inside of the seed was not a small space, but a world!
With his heart filled with excitement, Gu Zheng reached out and picked a fairy from the ancient space.
This fairy vegetable is an ordinary green vegetable, and the grade of the ingredients is also ordinary. It was one of the ingredients that the spirit of the weapon first rewarded to Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng took the fairy and buried it in the soil after walking out of the cave.
The Five Elements Immortal Ball in the body vibrated, and clear water spurted out from Gu Zheng's palm, moistening the soil under the celestial being. Gu Zheng used the Earth Control Technique and the Wood Control Technique at the same time to promote the growth of plants, allowing the celestial being to grow quickly.
grew on the land.
Stopping the Earth Control Technique and the Wood Control Technique from promoting the fairy vegetables, Gu Zheng placed his palm on top of the fairy vegetables and moved slowly, using the improvement method he had just mastered to improve the level of the fairy vegetables.
Colorless fluctuations were produced under the ancient palm, and the fairy vegetables affected by it seemed to come alive, and the leaves swayed gently.
Gu Zheng observed the fairy vegetables with the eyes of Tao, and saw that its quality was changing rapidly.
Gu Zheng looked deep into the soil again and saw that the roots of the fairy vegetables were absorbing the essence in the soil, but the amount absorbed was very small. It was simply not proportional to the essence needed for its real qualitative change. This
This is the mystery and magic of Tao, this is the power of law!
It only took thirty seconds for Gu Zheng to upgrade the originally ordinary level fairy to a medium level.
It took another two minutes for Gu Zheng to upgrade the medium-level fairy vegetables to the excellent level.
"call!"
He stopped using the power of the law and let out a long breath.
Although Gu Zheng stopped improving the grade of immortal vegetables, this was not the end of his improvement. In fact, he could upgrade the grade of this green vegetable to a high level!
"so amazing!"
A cheer suddenly sounded in Gu Zheng's mind.
Almost at the same time as the sound sounded, Gu Zheng looked at the small garden where Qi Ling was, and saw her jumping up from the big stone like a carp jumping upright! Whether it was movements or energy, everything was
There is no such feeling of weakness after recovering from a serious illness. There is only one possibility, that is, the weapon spirit has actually woken up!
"When I finished the retreat, I looked at you and you were still sleeping soundly!"
The weapon spirit finally recovered, and Gu Zheng felt a warm feeling in his heart. This was the moment he was looking forward to. However, when he really looked at the weapon spirit, Gu Zheng felt that he didn't know what to say to her.
Just a big eye roll.
"I ended my deep sleep a little earlier than expected. I woke up two days ago, but I knew that you were in a realm similar to the mysterious, so I continued to pretend to be asleep. After you finished the retreat, I felt
You are very happy and can’t wait, so I really want to know what you have learned, so I want to give you a surprise!”
Qi Ling stuck out his tongue at Gu Zheng, and then rolled his eyes at Gu Zheng: "You had this expression just after you woke up. Don't you want to see me?"
"Hope, of course I hope!"
Gu Zheng laughed heartily, and Qi Ling also laughed happily.
"I didn't expect that you actually understood the way to improve the quality of ingredients. This is a great way for an immortal chef!"
Qi Ling looked at Gu Zheng up and down, his eyes were quite complicated. It felt like he was looking at a sapling planted by his own hands. After not seeing each other for a few years, the original sapling had turned into a big tree that could block wind and rain.
.
"If being able to upgrade the grade of food ingredients to excellent is great, then what about being able to upgrade the grade of food ingredients to high quality?" Gu Zheng smiled proudly.
"Can you upgrade the grade of food to a high level?" The weapon spirit's eyes widened instantly.
"That's right!" Gu Zheng was still smiling proudly.
Qi Ling didn't speak, she just extended her thumb to Gu Zheng because she didn't know what to say to Gu Zheng for a while.
After a while, the weapon spirit spoke again: "Lord Tie Xian once used the quota to increase the level of food ingredients as one of the rewards for expanding the ancient space. Although after entering the prehistoric space, I could not see Lord Tie Xian immediately, and there were no follow-up tasks.
, but I still have the quota here that can improve the level of the ingredients, and it is the quota that can upgrade the ingredients to a high level! I originally planned to use it as one of your rewards after expanding the prehistoric space, but now it seems that you are
It’s completely unnecessary!”
Qi Ling was really shocked by Gu Zheng. Although Tie Xian gave Gu Zheng a quota to improve the ingredients, this gift did not make Gu Zheng realize the Tao. It was just like giving an 'immortal weapon' to Gu Zheng, so Gu Zheng
The number of places that can be used to upgrade food ingredients is fixed, and the level of food ingredients can only be improved in the prehistoric space.
Gu Zheng himself understood the way to improve the quality of ingredients. These are two completely different concepts from the quota passed down by Tiexian! One is a borrowed power, and the other is a power he possesses.
"Although I can upgrade the grade of ingredients to high, it does not mean that I can upgrade it at will. With my current control over the power of this law, it is very tiring to upgrade an ingredient from ordinary to excellent.
If you want to upgrade an ingredient from ordinary to high-level, I think it will take several days to use the power of this law again." Gu Zheng said with emotion.
"Satisfied, this is already very good. After all, the power of the law will increase as you become more familiar with it. Just like the power of the law of time that you have comprehended, is its power now the same as when you first comprehended it?"
Qi Ling said angrily.
"That's true, you are smarter!"
Although he knew that Gu Zheng's compliment was not sincere, Qi Ling still smiled and felt very satisfied.
"Tell me, what happened during this time since I fell asleep!" Qi Ling asked curiously.
Gu Zheng began to tell, and Qi Ling's expression changed with Gu Zheng's encounters, sometimes worried, sometimes angry, and sometimes happy.
After a while.
"I didn't expect so many things to happen during this period of time! The Skeleton Palace and the others are really in danger. Facing the corpse spirits with many life-saving jade charms, it's thanks to you that you have a few good allies who can share so much for you.
Fortunately, you did not stick to the rules and were bullied by the quasi-Shengyun Zhenzi, but you were able to flexibly think of using the prehistoric space to rescue you!"
"In any case, you have been richly rewarded for the efforts made by Skull Palace and the others. The resources you have now are wealth that most cultivators dare not even think about!"
"After receiving the blessing of heaven and earth, the mythical beast egg actually gave birth to a humanoid mythical beast. I only know one case of this kind of mutation legend. I have to say that your blessing is really deep! The butterfly spirit has great potential for growth. This girl will be able to grow in the future.
He is your right-hand man!"
After listening to Gu Zheng's story, Qi Ling said a lot.
"But, are you too indulgent to this girl? After all, you are his master, how can you let her trouble you?"
Qi Ling rolled his eyes at Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng did not hide anything about Butterfly Ling from him.
"well enough!"
Gu Zheng shrugged and smiled: "You also know that when I was on earth, I didn't let Meow Meow call me master. The reason is because I don't want to have a master-servant relationship with people who are close to me.
!I hope we can be more relaxed between us, I don’t need them to be respectful and obedient to me.”
"I didn't tell them to be obedient..."
Qi Ling seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing and just glared at Gu Zheng.
"By the way, there are two more things."
Gu Zheng paused for a moment, then told Qi Ling about transplanting the Xuanlu Immortal Grass into the prehistoric space and doing alchemy food cultivation for Master Duan.
"What do you mean by specifically telling me these two things?" Qi Ling looked at Gu Zheng with a half-smile.
If it were in the past, Gu Zheng might have hesitated to speak when faced with Qi Ling's expression at this time. But now, Gu Zheng is very calm and just looks at her with a smile.
"It's nothing, I just want to see your reaction." Gu Zheng said calmly.
"Then how do you want me to react?" Qi Ling was still half-smiling.
Gu Zheng smiled slightly: "If there are no reasons that I don't know about these two things, which lead to what I did wrong, then I hope you won't react."
"As you wish!"
Qi Ling's face changed quickly, and the original half-smile turned into a coquettish smile in an instant. She looked at Gu Zheng up and down, and there was even satisfaction in her eyes.
"During my deep sleep this time, I feel like you have changed a lot." Qi Ling said.
"What has changed?" Gu Zheng asked knowingly.
"You've grown up!" Qi Ling pretended to be old-fashioned.
"Hmm."
Gu Zheng smiled maliciously: "Do you think I can turn you into a real person one day?"
"You turned me into a real person? What do you want to do?" Qi Ling said on guard.
"Humph, think for yourself!"
Gu Zheng stopped talking and stretched out comfortably.
Qi Ling was just stunned for a moment, but did not bother with this topic. She spoke again: "I have something to give you."
Qi Ling's words fell to the ground, and there were three more small bottles in the ancient space.
"What is this?" Gu Zheng asked.
"This is when I was on Earth before, I helped you collect the Wish Power Immortal Dew brewed by Will Power. I also told you at that time that these three bottles of Wish Power Immortal Dew will give you a great deal when you reach the Da Luo Jinxian realm.
With help. Now that you have reached the realm of Daluo Jinxian, I will give them to you." Qi Ling said.
"All right!"
Gu Zheng shook his head and smiled: "When you said you would give it to me when I was in the Da Luo Jinxian realm, I also said that I didn't know when I would be able to ascend to the Da Luo Jinxian realm. In the blink of an eye, it only took a few years. At the beginning, I was only in the realm of returning to the virtual world.
Now I have become a Daluo Jinxian. It is true that time is not forgiving and time makes people grow old!"
Gu Zheng pretended to cough twice, which made the weapon spirit burst into laughter.
"Qi Ling, what is the use of this Wish Power Immortal Dew?" Gu Zheng asked.
