Li Hao's Ingredients
Li Hao determined the direction and returned with the Ancient Demon Woman towards Qinghe Fallen City.
Apart from the pitch-black Starry Sky, the road was littered with scattered debris, a mixture of Ancient Demon and Human Race. Especially as they approached the First Defense Line, the Yan Chu Immortal Dynasty's army had already retreated to the Second Defense Line, leaving behind only corpses and blood everywhere.
Li Hao had been chasing them all along, so he was quite familiar with this situation, and his expression remained unchanged.
The Ancient Demon Woman remained unfazed by the sight, as if she were already used to it.
"To be honest, I still don't know how to address you."
Walking amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the Ancient Demon Woman turned her head and asked curiously, revealing a lively demeanor.
It was inconsistent with her icy nature, and her relaxed tone was also incongruous with the hellish scene around her.
Li Hao said calmly, "You should have introduced yourself before asking me."
The Ancient Demon Woman inwardly scoffed at the Human Race, but outwardly smiled and said, "It was my rudeness. You can call me— Ban Xueyao."
"Chong Er.
Li Hao responded coldly to Hua Xueyao's raised eyebrow, saying, "As far as I know, Human Race don't have surnames like 'insect.' This is your real name."
"Same to you. "Li Hao sneered inwardly, but ignored him.
"Damn brat, wait till I get a Human Race identity, and I'll see how I deal with you!" Seeing Li Hao's cold demeanor, Ban Xueyao couldn't help but grit her teeth inwardly. Although she knew that Li Hao was blaming her for the previous pursuit by the Ancient Demon Commander, no one had ever dared to treat her like this before.
"Are you still angry about what happened before? We are all Human Race, shouldn't we support each other to slay the Ancient Demon?"
Hua Xueyao said with a slightly aggrieved expression.
Why is that thing chasing you?
Li Hao suddenly asked.
Ban Xueyao was taken aback, and without thinking, she said, "Of course it's because I'm Human Race. Ancient Demon Human Race."
Do I need a reason?
Li Hao rolled his eyes, too lazy to waste any more words.
Seeing Li Hao's attitude, a hint of doubt flashed in Hua Xueyao's eyes. Could it be that this kid knows something? Impossible, unless the other party can understand the language of the Ancient Demon Clan. But the Ancient Demon Clan has been fighting with the Human Race for 100,000 years and has long since developed Secret Art to capture Human Race and search their memories.
Once the memories of Ancient Demon are touched, the Ancient Demon's Primordial Spirit will immediately explode, Destruction itself. At the same time, Secret Art will be triggered, pulling the intruder into the Reincarnation constructed by the supreme Great Emperor of the Ancient Demon Clan, where they will suffer terrifying torment.
They will then plunder the intruder's memories in reverse.
After all, with the Reincarnation shattered, many treasures were in the hands of the Ancient Demon Clan.
Hua Xueyao shook her head slightly, dismissing the idea, and simply assumed that Li Hao was just eccentric.
"You're so powerful, able to the Immortal Lord Realm at the True Immortal Realm Third Layer. You must be one of the top Heavenly Prodigy in your Sect. Which Sect do you belong to?"
Xue Yao, unable to bear Li Hao's sour face, asked curiously.
Li Hao ignored him and didn't bother to respond.
"Damn it, damn it! That wretched brat!" Ban Xueyao gritted her teeth, wishing she could attack Li Hao.
But I held back.
She asked him about other things, but Li Hao remained unresponsive. Seeing this, she gave up trying to appease him. Once she reached the Human Race camp, she would find a way to infiltrate elsewhere, then return to settle scores with this brat, secretly imprison him, and torment him to the cruel punishments she craved. A smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.
The two continued on their way in silence, exchanging no further words.
Along the way, Li Hao collected all the Ancient Demon Corpse he encountered into his Heaven and Earth Space.
In this great battle, most of the celestial army did not have time to collect the Ancient Demon's physical body.
On his way back, Li Hao collected scattered Ancient Demon Corpse, piecing them together to find about twenty or thirty.
He suddenly slapped his forehead. What he wanted was the Ancient Demon Corpse; why did he have to go through the trouble of hunting it down himself?
This is a battlefield, and there's no shortage of body parts; you can find them everywhere!
Thinking of this, Li Hao suddenly didn't want to go back. Continuing to loot corpses on this First Defense Line would be more efficient.
However, let's send this Ancient Demon inside first.
Li Hao glanced at Hua Xueyao and continued his return journey in the second direction.
Hua Xueyao noticed Li Hao picking up corpses along the way and couldn't help but feel strange. This Human Race wasn't collecting the bodies of his own kind, but instead was collecting the bodies of Ancient Demon... Could he be trying to use the corpses as merit points?
Seeing Li Hao's strange behavior, she thought for a moment but decided not to ask, lest she get a cold shoulder.
For a long time.
When Li Hao returned to the Second Defense Line, still some distance away, he saw a large number of Ancient Demon troops there. His expression changed slightly, and he concealed his Aura. It seemed that the Second Defense Line had fallen and had been completely occupied by the Ancient Demon!
Xue Yao noticed this as well, but instead of smiling, her eyes turned slightly cold.
Suddenly, she seemed to notice something, and her expression changed drastically.
"Not good."
She grabbed Li Hao and stopped him, simultaneously releasing her Immortal Dao power to envelop Li Hao and conceal Li Hao Aura.
She subtly released a trace of Ancient Demon Aura within her Immortal Dao power, Perfection concealing it and preventing the Ancient Demon from detecting her Human Race scent.
"How?"
Li Hao also noticed the Ancient Demon Tide ahead, but there were also Battle Battalion fighting fiercely nearby. If he could blend in, he might be able to take the opportunity to return.
"They are Reincarnation Race."
Hua Xueyao's face was grim as she said, "Those two Ancient Demon Commander were chasing us earlier, even within the Ancient Demon Clan, there are differences in Bloodline. The Reincarnation Race is one of the seven major Bloodline among the Ancient Demon, making them even more terrifying than ordinary Ancient Demon!"
Li Hao was slightly pleased; this was the first time he had heard of such a thing.
"Most of the Ancient Demon you've seen, including their commanders and King-Level, are descended from the seven great Bloodline."
Ban Xueyao stared intently at the Ancient Demon Tide and said, "Did you see that? The Reincarnation Race among them are patrolling everywhere, not participating in the battle. They're probably looking for us!"
Li Hao was stunned and asked, "Didn't the Ancient Demon Commander escape back to report the news? How come you... they can transmit Intelligence so quickly?"
"Um?"
Ban Xueyao looked at Li Hao with a puzzled expression. Seeing Li Hao blink in confusion, she thought for a moment and assumed it was a slip of the Li Hao. She explained:
"Among the Ancient Demon Clan, there exists a world of Reincarnation. Within it, messages can travel billions of miles in a single breath, even if one were to..."
Pa
Li Hao Haozhu: In the battlefield, the importance of Intelligence is beyond doubt, and the fact that the Ancient Demon Clan possesses such a terrifying Intelligence transmission ability explains why they are so powerful and terrifying on the battlefield.
"How do you know all this?" Li Hao asked.
Hua Xueyao scoffed, "I am Immortal Lord Realm, and we have been fighting against the Ancient Demon Clan for 100,000 years. Can't you even find out this little secret?"
Li Hao nodded. It seemed that most of the Immortal Lord Realm on the Human Race also knew this secret.
"It seems you know quite a lot," Li Hao said, but his words carried a deeper meaning.
Hua Xueyao didn't think much of it, but her gaze remained fixed on the Ancient Demon Tide, her eyes flickering uncertainly. Suddenly, she whispered:
"We have to take a detour; we can't go back now. They've secretly taken precautions here; if we get close, we'll definitely alert them—"
She glanced around, a sudden determination flashing in her eyes, and said, "Let's do the opposite. Follow me!"
Li Hao pulled his hand away from hers and said, "You go your way, I'm going back."
Ban Xueyao quickly said, "You're in the same situation as me now. If you go, you'll alert them, and you have no idea what kind of detection methods they have."
Li Hao remained silent, concealing his Aura as he continued forward.
As they approached the Ancient Demon Tide, Li Hao suddenly saw several Ancient Demon Ancient Demon Tide flight from within it, with a dazzling mirror appearing above their heads, shining in the Starry Sky.
The mirror kept flipping and tumbling, its frame inlaid with skulls, looking quite ferocious.
Li Hao's expression changed slightly, and he quickly stopped. He had a premonition that if he got any closer, he would be locked onto by the mirror.
Reaching his level, he nurtured a nascent Heavenly Dao Embryo, and his inner intuition was already influenced by the Unseen Heavenly Dao, making his senses extremely accurate.
Whoosh!
Xue Yao's figure flickered, instantly teleporting in front of Li Hao. Immortal Dao Laws enveloped Li Hao, taking Li Hao back to the location tens of thousands of miles away.
You almost died!
Hua Xueyao glared angrily at Li Hao and said, "Do you know what that is? It's the Three Lives Secret Technique of the Reincarnation Clan. That Ancient Demon Commander remembered you. With this Three Lives Secret Technique, no amount of disguise will work. Unless you cultivate to become Immortal King and cover yourself with the Immortal Kingdom, you won't be able to escape even a trace of the Power of Fate from that Three Lives Secret Technique."
This time, Li Hao did not refute, but only frowned. It seemed that the Ancient Demon's abilities were not limited to a powerful Primordial Spirit.
"Let's hide here for now and find an opportunity when they start fighting amongst themselves."
Hua Xueyao said.
Li Hao nodded. For now, the only option was to wait until the Ancient Demon Clan and the Yan-Chu were locked in a fierce battle.
Only then will I have the opportunity to return home.
At this moment, with the Ancient Demon Tide in front, he was actually at the rear of the Ancient Demon army.
"Walk."
Hua Xueyao stopped talking and used the Immortal Dao Laws to conceal Li Hao's Aura. As long as the Reincarnation Race didn't use the Three Lives Secret Technique to investigate, other Ancient Demon wouldn't be able to detect anything unusual even if they got close.
"In that case, let's head back to the First Defense Line."
Li Hao said.
Ban Xueyao thought of the place she had just arrived at, where there was no Ancient Demon army. She also knew where the Ancient Demon army was mainly deployed, so she immediately nodded and said, "Okay."
The two temporarily retreated from the Second Defense Line and returned to the First Defense Line.
The entire battlefield was extremely vast, Li Hao retrieved the corpses of the Ancient Demon from the First Defense Line.
In this Starry Sky, the sun still rises and sets, but that brilliant God Sun falls straight down to an extremely distant place, as if sinking into the Nine Netherworld, completely invisible.
At that time, only the Xingchen and shadows will remain.
Like a scavenger, Li Hao picked up the remains of Ancient Demon along the way. When he encountered a relatively intact Human Race's remains, he also picked them up, so that he could send their souls back to their hometowns when he returned to the city.
Although he didn't know the deceased's name, in this vast battlefield, their shared clan identity alone was enough to make him do this.
After searching for several days, the number of Ancient Demon Corpse around him gradually decreased. Li Hao found a broken continent floating in the Starry Sky as a foothold. The place was in chaos, with corpses scattered everywhere.
Li Hao retrieved a complete Ancient Demon Corpse, brandished his machine, and skillfully sliced through the Ancient Demon's skin.
To Cooking.
Primal Chaos Divine Fire condensed in his palm, driven by Immortal Power, its power and temperature dozens of times higher than before.
The Ancient Demon Corpse, now at the pinnacle of True Immortal Realm Perfection, gradually sizzled and emitted a fragrant aroma under the scorching heat of the Primal Chaos Divine Fire.
Li Hao took out many spices he carried with him, and then drew two kinds of trees with special fragrances in the Void. The two trees took shape as soon as they were drawn, and Li Hao shaved them into powder, sprinkling it on the Ancient Demon Meat. The aroma rose from the Chaos god's body. "What are you doing?"
When Xue Yao saw Li Hao's actions, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, her face showing disbelief.
Over the years, she had witnessed the Ancient Demon Clan Slaughter and devouring each other, but she had never seen Human Race eat Ancient Demon, let alone Cooking it as food. A chill ran down her spine.
But the aroma that wafted over made her Forbidden Zone swallow.
The taste of our own kind... it smells so good!
Before long, Li Hao finished Cooking. Seeing the increased Cooking experience he had gained, he smiled with satisfaction and then began to enjoy his meal.
He prepared the Ancient Demon's flesh and blood to be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, melting in your mouth with a rich meaty aroma.
As the Ancient Demon's flesh and blood were digested within his body, the pure Primordial Spirit power surged into Li Hao's body.
His spirits lifted, his Divine Sense gradually strengthened, and his Primordial Spirit quietly improved.
Hua Xueyao sat quietly beside Li Hao, watching the Human Race boy eat with such relish. Besides feeling terrified, she also felt a strange impulse.
Is it really that delicious?
Seeing that Li Hao was almost finished eating the enormous Ancient Demon, she couldn't help but say, "Let me have a taste too."
Li Hao glanced at her, initially not wanting to acknowledge her, but as a Cooking master, besides demanding meticulous Cooking skills, he also had compassion for his diners.
He casually cut off a piece, tossed it to the other person, and then continued eating by himself.
Hua Xueyao caught the Roast Meat that Li Hao tossed to her. The rich aroma hit her nose, and she couldn't help but take a light sniff. She then tore off a piece and put it into her mouth with great elegance.
As the aroma of meat spread across her tongue, her eyes widened slightly in disbelief.
This tastes so delicious!
She slowly finished eating, then tore off another piece.
As she quickened her pace, Li Hao had already finished the entire thing.
He patted his stomach, feeling the enhancement of his Primordial Spirit. The fatigue from the previous battles was completely swept away after this hearty meal.
Li Hao observed his Primordial Spirit and discovered that the Primal Spirit Golden Vein had increased by more than a dozen and was still slowly growing.
Li Hao couldn't help but feel excited. This rate of improvement was too fast. If he were to cultivate normally, after his Primordial Spirit reached this level, even if he cultivated Primordial Spirit- related Cultivation Method for more than ten years, he might not make such progress.
"Um, is there any more?"
Ban Xueyao's voice suddenly came.
Li Hao opened his eyes and looked at the other person, who looked somewhat embarrassed but also reluctant to leave.
This woman is ruthless... Li Hao was speechless. She even had a craving for food from her own kind.
If you want to eat it, go find the ingredients yourself.
Li Hao said.
He was reluctant to share the Ancient Demon Corpse in his possession.
"Ingredients?"
Ban Xueyao was stunned by Li Hao's words. This was the first time in her life that she had heard someone refer to the Ancient Demon Clan as "ingredients."
