Lu Yang was fully concentrating on roasting the Kui Ox, a task that required his wisdom, determination, and luck. No room was left for any carelessness, so he had temporarily overlooked Uncle Ba’s schadenfreude expression.
Finally, the roasted Kui Ox was ready, its delicious aroma pervaded the kitchen for three days without any root of dissipation. The Three-flavored True Fire, created by Lu Yang, really had some advantages.
There were only a hundred and eight kinds of true fire in the world. Lu Yang, with his talent, managed to add one more. Such flames were indeed extraordinary!
If Lu Yang wanted, he could even start up a continental chain of BBQ. restaurants! Establishing a BBQ.Sect wasn’t out of the question, either!
This was an opportunity that many Man Gu couldn’t even dream of attaining!
However, Lu Yang was indifferent to fame and wealth and had no plans in this regard.
Lu Yang placed the roasted Kui Ox on a plate and garnished it with roasted potatoes, carrots and cauliflower, preparing to serve it. The puppet looked at Lu Yang unexpectedly, marveling at his thoroughness.
Just as Lu Yang was about to leave the kitchen, he noticed a large chunk of meat missing from the Kui Ox, revealing well-defined White Bone.
Lu Yang recalled the White Bone Regenerate Pill he had just swapped for.
“What would happen if I fed the Kui Ox the White Bone Regenerate Pill? Would a chunk of meat grow back?” thought Lu Yang. If successful, this could spell a tremendous business opportunity!
Acting on his thought, Lu Yang pried open the mouth of the Kui Ox and forced down the elixir pill.
A miraculous scene unfolded. A trace of golden light emanated from the Kui Ox corpse’s wound. The roasted Kui Ox slowly floated, reverted to its raw state, and moved to the wound, fitting in seamlessly.
Lu Yang: “…”
Was this scientifically possible?
Did the meat I spent so much time roasting just revert back to its raw state?!
Even the puppet couldn’t hold back its laughter and snickered quietly.
Left with no choice, Lu Yang had to start over again.
Luckily, he had learned from his first attempt, so the second time around was much faster. Also, Lu Yang discovered his proficiency in ‘Cut’, Sword Qi, and Three-flavored True Fire had increased as well.
Lu Yang pondered, could this be what Eldest Senior Sister meant by growing through cooking?
Right. Among the cultivators, a group known as Spirit Chefs cultivate through cooking. His practice shared similarities with that of a Spirit Chef.
“Eldest Senior Sister has been too kind to me!” Lu Yang was deeply touched.
Eldest Senior Sister was cultivating in the Five Centers Toward Heaven pose in front of the dining table. Various visions manifested around her; large stars falling, all things rejuvenating, Thunder Tribulation transforming – it was as if all the fantastic scenes in the world were concentrated here.
Noticing Lu Yang’s arrival, she slowly opened her eyes. All the visions instantly retreated back into her body, as if nothing had happened.
“Roasted Kui Ox?” Yun Zhi glanced at the dinner Lu Yang had painstakingly prepared. Without saying much, she gestured for him to join her.
Lu Yang sat at the dining table with a straight posture, nervously waiting for his Eldest Senior Sister to eat first.
Yun Zhi cut a slice, opened her mouth slightly, and tasted it lightly: “Not bad.”
Only then did Lu Yang let his guarded heart relax.
Yun Zhi opened a storage space and handed Lu Yang a bottle of elixir. Lu Yang saw the words “Stomach Boosting Digestion Pill” on the bottle.
“This is an elixir made by Elixir Cauldron Peak. It aids digestion and absorption of food. Your tolerance to the spiritual energy contained in the roasted Kui Ox is still low, so eat slowly. Use the elixir as a supplement, and gradually absorb it.” As it turned out, Elixir Cauldron Peak has been established since the founding of the Seek Dao Sect. Their elixirs have always been very effective.
Lu Yang took a small bite and chewed lightly. The Kui Ox meat was gel-like, slid down to his stomach, and filled him up. The abundant spiritual energy surged rapidly to his cranial apertures. The fatigue from roasting the Kui Ox instantly vanished, and his whole body was rejuvenated.
Lu Yang’s eyes brightened. He hurriedly took an elixir and sat in meditation to cultivate, feeling the waves of spiritual energy tides within his body.
The demon beast that could be slain by Yun Zhi naturally had a very high cultivation level.
Yun Zhi gracefully nibbled on the barbecue, slowly savoring the taste. There were now fewer things that could promote her cultivation level.
The seven elders were gathered in the pine forest of Sky Gate Mountain. Except for the Grand Elder and Yun Zhi, all high-ranking members of the Seek Dao Sect were present.
Even the elusive Sect Leader was there.
“You tell me how Old Nine, a fine gentleman, just had to get into trouble.”
“Life is unpredictable, who can foresee the future?”
The seven elders discussed heatedly, making Daoist Buyu, who was meditating, want to duel in anger.
“I shouldn’t get angry, I shouldn’t get angry. I need to meditate for three days without breaking concentration,” Daoist Buyu repeatedly reminded himself not to lose his temper.
The seven elders reveled in his misfortune. Old Nine had always made fun of them every day. Now they had a chance to mock him, naturally they had to take advantage of this opportunity, as it might not occur again in a lifetime!
“In my opinion, Old Nine is just being petty. Having a talented disciple is a good thing! How did it upset him to the point of a brain clot?”
“Nonsense, this is clearly a vegetative state!”
Unable to contain his anger anymore, Daoist Buyu roared, “Don’t push it too far.”
Who was the one who revealed his secret?!
Xiao Yun? No, I wouldn’t stand a chance against her.
It must have been Lu Yang!
“Old Nine, you too have seen this day!” Uncle Ba gleefully laughed.
Uncle Ba had liked all kinds of plants and flowers in his youth. Back then, Daoist Buyu had told him about a method of cultivation involving immersing oneself in the earth, leaving only the head out, to perceive the spiritual energy of the earth and enhance cultivation.
Uncle Ba still felt embarrassed thinking about his foolish self at that time!
A lifelong disgrace!
“Taste my sword strike!” Daoist Buyu activated the Four Ultimate Sword Formation, attacking everyone. The seven elders instantly adopted defensive postures as thunder roared at the entrance of the abode, blocking the attack from the sword formation.
The seven elders sighed with relief. Yun Zhi’s defense was still trustworthy.
“Haha, Old Nine, your swordsmanship has regressed, hasn’t it? Your sword couldn’t even leave a small cave, but if it were me, it would have come out long ago!” Uncle Ba laughed brazenly.
Daoist Buyu sneered, “If you have the guts, blast the cave open.”
“Hmph, just a mere cave. What’s so difficult about opening it!” Uncle Ba threw out a palm strike that made a big noise, hitting the entrance of the abode and got shattered by the thunder.
“Unexpected! Let’s try again!” Uncle Ba, not deterred, tried again, but his attack was still dissolved by the thunder.
A cold sweat dripped from his forehead: “I have calculated the location of the Array Eye, but I have limited offensive means. I ask you to lend me a hand!”
The other six elders readily agreed.
All seven elders launched their attacks at the same time, attacking the Array Eye Uncle Ba had pointed out. Lightning and thunder flashed everywhere, filling the pine forest with chaos and rosiness. It was terrifying.
However, the seal on the abode seemed provoked and emitted a strong suction force, as if it could absorb everything in the world. Seeing this, the seven elders tried to run away with various means, but they couldn’t resist the suction force and were sucked into the abode.
The seven elders: “…”
Daoist Buyu was deeply moved. Was this the true brotherly bond, sharing the blessings and facing challenges together?
Yun Zhi, who was eating, suddenly stopped. She noticed that the seal she had left for her master had been activated.
People in the Seek Dao Sect have various strange thoughts. Yun Zhi was worried that someone would forcefully break the seal, so she set it up so that if anyone forcefully broke it, not only would the seal revert but it would also suck that person into the abode and seal them too.
“There shouldn’t be such people, right?” She mumbled, not completely sure.
