However, Shang Lin's eating speed really stunned Situ Pojun, who was sitting opposite him. He couldn't help but say subconsciously, "Although you are starving, we are not in a hurry. You don't need to eat so fast!"
Shang Lin paused in his chopsticks. "I know there's no rush, but I'm so hungry that I can't stop eating once I start."
Situ Pojun, "..."
I never imagined you were this kind of Sect Master Shang!
However, as a cultivator, Shang Lin's spiritual energy was greatly depleted. Could he still replenish it with food?
Because of Situ Pojun's words, Shang Lin's eating speed immediately decreased from a whirlwind mode to a normal mode, so that he could carefully savor the dishes.
It must be said that although the human world is currently in the Dharma-ending Age, its food is truly exceptional. Even those who cultivate through culinary arts cannot compare to it.
Of course, those who enter the path of cultivation through cooking skills in the cultivation world don't end up with much cultivation. After all, cultivators either eat fasting pills or have such high cultivation levels that they don't need to eat any food. So what's the point of having a chef?
Shang Lin slowed down his eating pace, giving him time to talk. However, he spoke to Situ Pojun telepathically, asking, "Have you looked into the auction items since then?"
Situ Pojun also transmitted his voice, saying, "I would like to, but unfortunately I don't have the time. However, I'll find out tonight, so there's no rush."
Shang Lin, "..."
Who was it that kept saying they wanted to go see the auction items last night?
However, at this moment, Shang Lin became a little curious about the legendary mermaid pearl, so he asked Situ Pojun with great interest, "Do mermaid pearls really exist?"
Situ Pojun said frankly, "I don't know, but even if there is one, it won't help our cultivation much. We might as well find a spirit. If we bring it back, you can have it as a disciple, and I can have it as an employee. Wouldn't that be better?"
Shang Lin was somewhat puzzled. "If the mermaid pearl is really as you say, why can't it improve one's cultivation?"
"Because our cultivation levels are higher than the spiritual power contained in the mermaid pearl, even if we use it, it won't help much in improving our cultivation. On the contrary, it will have a more significant effect on those with lower cultivation levels than us."
Shang Lin wanted to say, "Then give it to my disciples. Their cultivation levels vary, and someone will eventually find a use for it."
But when he opened his mouth, he said, "I've only just reached the Foundation Establishment stage, what kind of high cultivation level do I have?" Is there some difference in their understanding?
"But the mermaid pearl is nothing special. The reason this pearl became famous is because of the dragon energy on it. However, a thousand years have passed. Even if the mermaid pearl still has dragon energy, how much of it can be left? Moreover, your Foundation Establishment is not at the same level as that of ordinary cultivators, so don't underestimate yourself."
Could he say that he hadn't underestimated himself? However, the reason why his cultivation level was higher than that of cultivators of the same level was probably because the original owner of this body was a half-demon.
After all, the demon race has a strong physique and can improve their cultivation quickly. Of course, the probability of being struck by heavenly lightning and reduced to ashes during tribulation is also high. So Shang Lin just smiled and continued eating.
The passengers started discussing the auction items again. After all, there were only a few hours left until tonight's auction, and who among those attending the auction wasn't curious about the items?
