Chapter 7
Ning Xu has discovered that the melon-eating system knows how to whet people's appetite.
It's not like it has no energy at all.
Whenever there is a melon, it always comes out and says a few words, then leaves. It's purely fishing.
Just now, it said, "I...go...!" good! Stimulate! 】There’s nothing else after that. If you say a few more words, the system CPU will burn out, right? If I say a few more words, my mouth will get burned, right? If you say a few more words, the phone will be shut down, right?
When Ning Xu was pointing at the melon-eating system, a beautifully presented platter of spirit beasts suddenly appeared in front of him.
She raised her head slightly and saw a shy boy's face. The boy had clear eyes, slightly pursed lips, and looked at her expectantly.
"Fellow Daoist, this is a platter I made with the meat of various low-level spirit beasts. Would you like to try it?"
Ning Xu didn't even think twice and said, "Okay."
I have to say, the presentation of this dish is really beautiful. She had only seen carrots carved into roses before, but this was the first time she saw cooked meat carved into the shapes of various fruits.
She picked up a "grape" and put it in her mouth.
You don’t know until you try it.
This "grape" has delicious flesh, and it actually bursts with juice when you take a bite!
The juice inside has a little bit of grape fragrance, but it is not strong and will not overshadow the flavor. It only makes the meat of the spirit beast taste more refreshing and less greasy.
Ning Su gave this dish a thumbs up in her heart.
"The food made by this fellow cultivator actually has a strong spiritual energy!"
"After eating, my spiritual energy has recovered a lot."
"This is a potential stock, right? This must be a potential stock, right?"
Although she had just come here not long ago, after inheriting some of the original owner's memories, she also knew that, generally speaking, the food made by food cultivators did have spiritual energy, but not much.
Even if you use the best quality ingredients, there will be very little spiritual energy left after cooking.
Food cultivators are a very useless profession. They cannot compare to alchemy cultivators, but the food they make is more or less useful, and can be considered a substitute for alchemy cultivators.
Some monks who do not have enough spirit stones and cannot afford good elixirs may buy supplementary delicacies cooked by food cultivators.
But the food cooked by this fellow Taoist can be said to have retained 100% of the spiritual energy of the original ingredients, with almost no energy consumed.
The melon-eating system said with little interest, [The descendant of the Great God of Food, do you think he has potential? 】
When the melon-eating system said this, everyone present was slightly stunned. However, Ning Xu was so absorbed in the food that he didn't notice it.
The Great God of Cookery?
To be called the Great God of Food, one’s cultivation must at least be in the early stage of Mahayana. After Mahayana, one will ascend.
After hearing these words, even the boy himself was stunned.
It was the first time he heard that there was actually a great food god among their ancestors.
Even his great-great-grandfather probably didn't know about this. Otherwise, his great-great-great-grandfather would not have been able to keep it secret so strictly. If they knew, they would have spread the news to everyone long ago.
[Although thousands of years have passed and the blood in his body has become much thinner, it still has some. 】
[This guy does have some talent. 】
Ning Shu took another "orange" to eat. While chewing, she slowly said to the melon-eating system in her mind, "You are right. I should have established good relationships with the food cultivators in advance."
Her future enjoyment of food depends on them. Not to mention, one of them is the descendant of a great god of food. Who knows, when this fellow Taoist grows up, he might become another great god of food?
[Tsk.] 】
Although Ning Xu was eating delicious food, he also did not forget to eat melons.
"You haven't told me yet, what did you eat just now?"
Now that I have spiritual energy, I won’t hide the melon-eating system anymore.
[There is a peak master in the Weapon Peak of Wenxin Sect, who is of imposing appearance and extremely talented in refining equipment. 】
Under the boy's expectant gaze, Ning Xu grabbed another "small melon" to eat. This "little honeydew melon" should be made from spirit chicken. It has delicious juicy meat and the fragrance of fruit, which makes her unable to stop eating it.
She divided her attention and asked, "And then?"
The point can’t be that this peak master is good-looking, right?
There is no ugly person among those who practice Taoism.
[One hundred years ago, he led several teams of disciples to explore the secret realm. Half a month later, on the way back to the sect with the team, he suddenly left for something. He was gone for a hundred years. There has been no news of him in the past hundred years. The monks in the sect guessed that he had accidentally entered a secret realm, some guessed that he might be trapped somewhere, and some even speculated whether he had inherited some powerful inheritance.
But no one was concerned about his safety.
Because his life lamp not only did not dim, but became brighter and brighter. 】
Ning Xu seemed to be thinking deeply after hearing this. "So the sect didn't send anyone to look for him?"
[They searched for several years, but seeing that the vitality of his life lamp was becoming stronger and stronger, the head of the sect guessed that he might have got some great opportunity, so they didn't take it seriously. They thought that when the time came, if the peak master got some opportunity, he would come back by himself. 】
By then, where else can this peak master go if he doesn't come back?
Moreover, if you get a great opportunity, there will definitely not be any major danger.
But is this really the case?
If it were really that simple, the melon-eating system wouldn't be mentioned separately.
What's more, it just said there is a big melon.
This is called a big melon?
No, it's not even the rind.
Ning Shu guessed, "He probably didn't accidentally enter the secret realm, nor was he trapped somewhere, but something else happened, right?"
[Yes and no.] 】
Ning Xu's patience was almost exhausted. She pretended to be fierce and said, "Hurry up and tell me!"
The melon-eating system immediately said, "He was indeed trapped somewhere, but it was different from what most cultivators thought. He was not trapped in a secret realm, nor was he trapped in a dangerous place. Instead, he was trapped in the cave of a female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect. 】
Ning Xu:! ! !
Fellow food practitioners:! ! !
They couldn't help but gasp. Is this something they could hear?
Hearing this voice, Ning Shu subconsciously looked towards the food cultivators.
The food cultivators immediately became dramatic.
"Oh, it smells so good. I can't wait to taste it."
"Today I performed exceptionally well."
“So happy.”
Seeing that the food cultivators were busy with their own things, Ning Xu quickly looked away and continued eating melon.
"Back then, was this peak master directly abducted?"
[You guessed it right!] 】
[That year, he received news about the Shadowless Flower on his way back to the sect. The Shadowless Flower was the raw material for the elixir that healed the soul. 】
[His soul was damaged and needed urgent repair.] 】
[As soon as there is any news, no matter whether it is true or false, he will naturally go to investigate. 】
[But he would never have thought that this was fake news released by the female cultivator of the Hehuan Sect. 】
[The purpose is to catch him on the road!] 】
Ning Xu, "You use the word 'grasp' very cleverly..."
[During the past hundred years, he has been staying in the cave of this female cultivator, ahem... never leaving for a moment. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but he can’t…】
Ning Xu, "Ah? You mean, he has been..."
[That’s right.] It's just what you think. 】
"So, he didn't get any great opportunity, nor did he practice hard. He was just..."
[Yes, yes, that’s it!] 】
The life lamp became brighter and brighter because his cultivation was indeed increasing rapidly.
However, this crazy growth was not due to any good fortune or diligent meditation, but was due to the special skills of the Hehuan Sect.
[The Hehuan Sect's technique is actually quite good. It improves the cultivation of both parties and has relatively few side effects. 】
[But even if you have a relationship in the future, I don’t recommend you to practice this technique. From a long-term perspective, practicing this thing is not a good thing. 】
Ning Shu: ...
"Thank you so much for your reminder."
The melon-eating system just mentioned this technique casually. Anyway, the heavenly-level techniques it had were enough for Ning Xu to use. As for the others? All I can say is, stay away!
[Why do I say it is exciting? Because this technique is really fun. 】
[Oh, you don’t know, this technique has been mastered, it’s really... forget it, I won’t say more, it’s a waste of spiritual energy. 】
Ning Xu: "Okay."
You are good at keeping people on suspense.
[This year, the Hehuan Sect will hold a millennium celebration in the second half of the year. This female cultivator is a high-ranking member of the Hehuan Sect. She has been going out frequently in recent days to discuss matters related to the celebration with her fellow disciples. She had been too busy recently, leaving some time for herself, and the Peak Master took advantage of this opportunity to slip out. 】
Ning Xu said dryly, "I see..."
She had a lot of questions she wanted to ask at the moment, but she didn't know where to start.
After a hundred years of living together day and night, what kind of feelings does the peak master have towards this female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect?
Is it hatred, love, or both?
Probably, only the master of Qifeng Peak knows all this.
[By the way, he is about to return to the sect. He will be here in about a minute or two. 】
Ning Xu, "Ah?"
Aren't you changing the subject a little too quickly?
-
As soon as Wu Chichun, the head of Qifeng, returned to the sect, he met the sect leader and other elders at the sect gate.
He was a little flattered for a moment.
How did they know he would come back today?
Wu Chichun took a few steps forward and greeted the senior members of the Wenxin Sect, "My fellow Taoists, long time no see."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Although monks have a long lifespan, a hundred years is not a short time.
After Wu Chichun finished greeting, the head of the sect took two steps forward and patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go. You haven't been back for many years, and the head of Qi Peak was almost replaced."
Wu Chichun smiled flatteringly, "Thank you, Master, for keeping the position of Peak Master for me."
Several people walked in.
Wu Chichun didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that his fellow disciples were secretly looking at him, and the look in their eyes was somewhat meaningful.
It seems like pity, and also like envy.
It's understandable to envy him.
After all, a hundred years have passed, and he has cultivated from the early stage of the Spirit Transformation to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation, and is only one step away from the late stage of the Spirit Transformation.
They must have noticed the change in his cultivation level immediately.
So where does this mercy come from?
Wu Chichun didn't understand what he meant.
At this moment, one of his closest fellow disciples in the sect whispered to him, "Brother, all your past has been exposed..."
Wu Chichun:? ? ?
Before he understood the meaning of this sentence, his fellow disciple sent a message to him again.
"But you don't need to feel embarrassed."
"After all, the headmaster has raised his enemy's adopted son for eight hundred years."
"The headmaster didn't say anything, so if it were you, it wouldn't be a big deal."
Wu Chichun: Ah?
No, what are you talking about?
For a moment, he didn't know whether he should be shocked by the fact that "the master had raised his enemy's adopted son for eight hundred years" or confused by the sentence "all your past has been exposed."
So, what on earth happened to the Wenxin Sect during the hundred years since he left the sect?
