Chapter 16 – Freshly Made Fried Eggs
After a few days, the Immortal Grains had began to grow buds. Regarding this aspect, the Immortal Grains seemed to be growing quite a bit faster than normal grains.
The Immortal Vegetables were a bit slower. They had just emerged with a tip of gream. Each time he entered the Great Desolate space and saw the 10 Immortal Grains and 10 Immortal Vegetables, it made Gu Zheng feel a lot better, and would made him forget about the troubles that the spirit device put him through.
"Time is limited, quickly eat the Immortal Dan, only then can you enhance the ingredients!"
He had not yet been able to carefully examine each Immortal Grain and Vegetables condition when the sound of the spirit device rang out. When he entered the Great Desolate space, there was no need for him to practice, as his immortal essence would naturally increase. So the past few visits he had spent his time observing the species of Immortal Rice and Immortal Vegetables.
"Understood!"
He weakly responded. Gu Zheng took out the precious Immortal Essence Dan. The Immortal Essence Dan was bright like a pear, the surface was also surrounded by a floating white fog. With such harmony, it was truly beautiful.
When he galnced at it, he couldn't help but feel a bit of regret. Gu Zheng picked up the Immortal Dan and pnlaced it into his mouth, then picked up an egg.
After the Immortal Dan entered, he finally felt some kind of heat begin to flow through him. The heat emerged from his dantian and flooded his whole body. Every single cell of Gu Zheng felt extremely comfortable.
"Control your dantian, draw the Immortal energy out. Remove the impurities within the ingredients and improve the grade of the ingredients!"
The voice of the spirit device once again remerged. Gu Zheng forced himself to stop enjoying the comfort and hurriedly followed the spirit device's instructions. The test would begin tomorrow, although he could enter the Great Desolate space tomorrow, preparing in advance was a good idea.
Soon, Gu Zheng felt a force emerge from his fingertips, which quickly surrounded the egg in his hand, forming a bubble. The original white shell of the egg became even more white, as if it was a piece of pure jade.
"Continue, Do not stop!"
Gu Zheng did not have time to continue to carefully observe. The spirit device rang out once more. He could only place down the eggs, and pick up another to remove the impurities and enhance the grade of the eggs.
One after another, he had yet to complete it, when the scenery before him changed abruptly. He had left the Great Desolate space, and returned to his room.
"Why do I feel so exhausted this time?"
Just after coming out, Gu Zheng immediately felt a rush of exhaustion. His body began to sweat profusely and his arms became weak. Even trying to reach for the bottle of mineral water on the table was laborious.
"This is because you don't have the ability to control the Immortal Energy. Although the Immortal Essence Dan helped you increase your Immortal Energy substantially, your ability to use it is too poor. You don't understand how to control it, if you used it properly, while it would still tire you out, it could increase the grade of the ingredients even higher."
The spirit device gave Gu Zheng an explanation. Gu Zheng had already entered the Great Desolate space four times. All three times prior was only a light feeling of exhaustion. However, this time he had taken the Immortal Essence Dan, it was essential for Gu Zheng to be able to feel the Immortal energy, only then could he use it.
As it was his first time using it, there was some waste of Immortal Energy. However that was normal. People at this stage weren't familiar with the process, much less the sudden increase of strength.
Gu Zheng understood the meaning of the spirit device. He sat upright, and suddenly noticed the eggs from before.
"These are all the eggs that I managed to promote the grade of?"
GU Zheng pointed to one of the smaller of the two piles of eggs. The smaller pile's eggs looked distinctly different from the pile's adjacent to it. The outer white shell was brighter with a jade like feel. Not only did it enhance the quality of the ingredient within the egg, but also enhanced the egg shell as well.
There were only thirteen of these eggs.
The spirit device replied: "If you hadn't wasted any Immortal Energy, it would've increased to around 20 eggs per session. After you raise you Immortal Energy, you will be able to enhance the quality of even more ingredients!"
Right now, his Immortal Energy wasn't that strong. This was his first time using Immortal energy and he had almost spent it all. However, he still remembered the feeling of the Immortal energy gushing from his body. It was a thin stream of Immortal Energy, however it was unforgettable. It gave him a sense of comfort like when he had taken the Immortal Dan.
Thirteen eggs, the number was less than he hoped. However, he remembered the spirit device's pricing of the eggs. Gu Zheng suddenly felt like it was far from less. 88 dollars for a fried egg? Most likely only a few people would be willing to try.
The next morning, at seven o'clock, Gu Zheng opened his eyes. He felt quite different from yesterday.

First thing was that he felt like his eyes were sharper, and that his vitality was vetter. He got up and stretched his body. Gu Zheng felt like his entire body was full of power. This wasn't an illusion. He deliberately found something that could be moved down. The desk that had been so difficult to move earlier was now easily adjusted. His power had indeed increased.
There was still that feeling of a warm gust of air, which Gu Zheng guided into his body. He was truly able to feel the surging power within his body. This was the Immortal Essence Energy from yesterday. After running out of Immortal energy, all of it had refilled, and he finally felt the effect of the Immortal Energy within his body.
"Common Quality Eggs, second-class sesame oil and salt. Along with the Cooking Skill inherited from the God of Gluttony, the price of the fried egg comes to 88 RMB. However, how does it taste?"
After washing up, Gu Zheng directly entered the kitchen. With the eggs, sesame oil, and salt, he was ready. To the side, he opened the lid of a bottle of imported mineral water. (T/N: You know what? The author never said Gu Zheng placed the eggs into the fridge…)
While talking, he washed the pot with the mineral water. Before heading to Shu Yu's shop, Gu Zheng wanted to try a fried egg first. Although he said he had absolute confidence in his cooking, he had also said that the value of his fried egg was 88 RMB. It wasn't enough to comfort Shu Yu with words, he felt as if he wasn't sure enough.
He turned on the stove and heated the pan. Immediately within Gu Zheng's mind, a film of a fried egg appeared. There was a handsome young man holding a pan preparing to cook a fried egg.
In almost complete harmony with the film, Gu Zheng poured the oil and cracked the egg. The ordinary qualities color of egg yolk and egg white were clear. White was white, yellow was yellow. When cooking in the sesame oil, the outer layer congealed quickly. It didn't solidify like a usual fried egg, which was filled with small potholes. It solidified with a jade surface that was smooth and calm, without any impurities or scars.
The yellowish brown sesame oil rained over the body of the egg and slid down it like drops of water after it had just rained.
After just over a minute, the fried eggs was placed in the center of a plate. On the round plate, there was a circular fried egg. It was completely round. The outer layer of egg white was like white jade, while the center which was a pinkish yellow, like agate.
Appearance wise, the fried egg looked pretty good. It was pleasing to the eye. However, food couldn't not taste good, thus taste is most important.
After cooking the eggs, Gu Zheng felt somewhat tired. He had only fried an egg, yet it felt as if he had ran laps. He was somewhat puzzled.
He was just a little bit curious about it, but he disregarded the matter quickly. He picked up the chopsticks and lightly blew on the freshly fried egg before biting of a small piece.
