Lei San suppressed his laughter, it had been a long time since he had seen Wang Dapang's obsequious behavior.
Wang Dapang was still trembling, the stove held a living gold mine!
He felt even more guilty that he hadn't visited Huang Tiancheng during his illness, but he was also glad he hadn't kicked him when he was down, otherwise how could such a good thing fall to him?
Wang Lie snorted and handed over the written prescription according to Huang Tiancheng's instructions.
These medicinal materials were worth at least two thousand Star Stones!
Among them, the Hundred Year Snow Lotus and Hundred Year Yellow Essence were the most valuable, being the medicinal primers Huang Tiancheng prepared for stewing the Spirit Fish treasure.
If Wang Dapang wanted to eat a Spirit Fish feast, he would have to bleed.
He also needed to use the East Courtyard's dining hall Spirit Cauldron to stew the Spirit Fish, so Wang Dapang had to come.
That Spirit Cauldron was specially used for cooking delicacies for the Outer Gate Hall's Star Officials, and could effectively condense the energy of heaven and earth, improve the quality of ingredients, and was more valuable than ordinary treasure ships.
The Spirit Cauldron could even completely preserve the nutrients of high-end ingredients!
Of course, if the Spirit Cauldron was used privately? If discovered, one would be worse than dead.
After reading the prescription, Wang Dapang's forehead was covered in cold sweat, but he decisively gritted his teeth and said, "I will gather everything as soon as possible, and guarantee to start the pot at night!"
"I need to use the Spirit Cauldron for three days."
Wang Dapang looked at Huang Tiancheng with a bitter face, and gritted his teeth fiercely, "No problem, leave it to me!"
For the Other Shore Realm, even if he bankrupted his family and risked his life, it would be worth it!
Reaching the Other Shore Realm not only brought status and position, but also a hundred years of extra lifespan, how could it not be worth a gamble.
At this moment, Chen Fusheng, who had recovered from his injuries in the bedroom, was not surprised to see Wang Dapang. Having a chef would better realize the value of the top-grade treasure fish.
Seeing Wang Dapang leave, Wang Lie was worried: "I'll follow him, lest he turn against us and leak the matter."
"He's not a bad person, just a bit narrow-minded."
Huang Tiancheng shook his head, using the Spirit Cauldron privately meant they were all in the same boat. Waiting for Wang Dapang to reach the Other Shore Realm, this good karma would help Chen Fusheng in the future.
"Well, I can't just freeload, what do you old folks want me to do?" Wang Lie asked.
"Brother Lie, you're being too polite. If you hadn't stepped forward to suppress Teng Xiong just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable," Chen Fusheng said.
"Then I won't be pretentious. In short, I will do my best to help Fusheng with the resources to break through to the Other Shore Realm in the future."
Wang Lie took out the extra Star Stones he had, a total of five hundred.
"Fusheng, don't refuse, the path for me to break through has already been paved." Wang Lie didn't like owing favors, and this debt would be repaid.
Even after this incident, Chen Fusheng would grow rapidly in the short term, and reaching the Other Shore Realm would not be difficult!
Waiting for Liu Bai to break through, then the three of them could help each other in the Inner Courtyard, and perhaps there would be a glimmer of hope to glimpse the Spirit Roaming Great Dao!
"When opportunity comes, you can't stop it even if you want to!"
Wang Lie sighed and asked the old man about the art of cooking.
Late at night.
Even though Chen Fusheng concealed the fact that he had fought the Spirit Fish alone, just the sheer luck of encountering a Spirit Fish, coupled with meeting the terrifying expert who was fishing for Flood Dragons, made Wang Lie feel like he was in a dream.
"Cold Abyss Poison, the old man on the bamboo raft." Huang Tiancheng gazed at the stars outside the window.
"Buzz..."
From time to time, the sound of energy boiling came from the kitchen, crackling and popping.
The cyan Spirit Cauldron was as large as a millstone. Wang Dapang used his Qi Sea energy as fire, continuously burning the Spirit Cauldron. During this process, he formed hand seals and injected them into the Spirit Cauldron.
Wang Lie was fortunate enough to witness the skills of a Spirit Chef. In all the world, there were not only Star Masters, but also various special sub-professions.
For example, Star Gazing Masters, Spirit Planters, Spirit Chefs, Alchemists, Blacksmiths, and so on.
Leaving aside Star Gazing Masters, the status of the other professions was generally equal.
Among them, Spirit Planters mainly cultivated various spirit herbs, spirit seeds, spirit rice, and so on. A highly skilled Spirit Planter could provide rations for tens of thousands of elite soldiers.
Alchemists could refine various spirit pills and powerful medicines, Blacksmiths could forge various weapons, and Spirit Chefs were admired for their superb culinary skills.
It sounded like a cook who made food, but in reality, high-level Spirit Chefs were extremely rare. Legend has it that they could draw in fire from beyond the heavens and the power of the stars to cook the most exquisite delicacies.
Wang Dapang, with his ninth level Star Guiding Realm cultivation, continuously stimulated his Qi Sea energy, and had been stewing for several hours without finishing.
Seeing that it was already late into the night, the stars in the sky shone brightly. Wang Dapang used his Qi Sea energy to stimulate the Spirit Cauldron to its limit.
"Boom!"
The cyan Spirit Cauldron rumbled suddenly, emitting a unique pulling force. The moonlight and starlight it drew in were like a swamp, falling down in layers and sinking into the Spirit Cauldron.
As time passed, the beams of light emitted by the Spirit Cauldron became more and more dazzling, and the inside was filled with muffled thunder, as if it was being struck by lightning, buzzing differently.
Lei San was frightened and worried about the pot exploding.
Wang Lie released his energy to cover the kitchen, preventing the commotion from spreading to the outside world.
As time passed, the sun star rose from the end of the horizon, dispelling the darkness. Wang Dapang, who was almost exhausted, roared in a low voice, formed hand seals, and the Spirit Cauldron floated in the air, leading the way, drawing in layers of Great Sun Essence Fire to refine the Spirit Fish within.
These hand seals were very elaborate, mobilizing various energy attributes to stimulate the potential value of the ingredients.
"I'm opening the pot!"
Wang Dapang was covered in hot sweat. Wang Lie completely released his Qi Sea energy, creating nine layers of energy shields to guard the area.
As the Spirit Cauldron opened, it had the momentum of a terrifying wave splitting the sky.
Whoosh!
A illusory and enormous Spirit Fish leaped out of the pot, wagging its tail upwards, smashing several energy shields, looking like it was about to break through the roof and escape.
"Where do you think you're going!"
Wang Dapang urged the Spirit Cauldron to release a wave of air that tore apart the Spirit Fish's phantom, turning it into thick juice that splashed into the pot with a whooshing sound.
Chen Fusheng's eyes were opened. The Spirit Fish had truly become a spirit, and the extracted essence had even produced anomalies, as if it was about to transform into a tangible form and escape.
They all gathered around, staring at the inside of the pot. Spiritual energy was misty, and the glow of dawn bloomed. Every inch of the fish meat was crystal clear, like a peerless jade emitting an intoxicating fragrance.
The crowd swallowed their saliva like crazy. Wang Dapang was excited and Excited (kàngfèn: excited/hyper). As a low-level Spirit Chef, being able to cook such a top-notch delicacy was worth it in this lifetime.
What's the reason? How could ordinary ingredients withstand the tempering of the Great Sun Essence Fire?
With the complete hand seals executed, Wang Dapang's skill level naturally increased, benefiting him immensely.
Everyone sat around the stone table. Chen Fusheng brought out a jar of old wine he had bought last night and poured it for them, regretting that it wasn't spirit wine.
Spirit wine and Spirit Fish were a perfect match, but the value of any spirit wine exceeded five hundred Star Stones.
Huang Tiancheng took the lead, picking up the golden fish eyes and placing them in Chen Fusheng's bowl.
The eyes of the Spirit Fish could brighten the eyes, and Chen Fusheng didn't stand on ceremony, eating them separately, but they were like chewing wax, bitter and astringent.
Then, his eyes became unbearably itchy, tears streaming down, rubbing his eyelids frantically, and he couldn't help but hold his head.
Soon his eyes were stinging and burning, and he couldn't wait to dig his eyeballs out!
After the torment passed, Chen Fusheng's pupils shone brightly, emitting a faint golden halo as he activated them, and his vision ushered in a surge.
He suddenly looked out the window, and an eagle was soaring in the high sky. His eyes were like watching the eagle at close range.
Chen Fusheng was taken aback. His vision had increased at least five or six times!
When he looked down, he was shocked and said, "Lie-ge, why are you wearing big red underpants?"
"Damn it!" Wang Lie, who was eating with red eyes, almost fell under the table.
"Don't look at me, be careful of getting a stye!" Wang Dapang covered his crotch with both hands, he wasn't wearing anything.
Lei San chuckled, eating until his face was flushed, drinking strong wine wildly, his whole body was hot, he had never been so happy.
Wang Dapang finished off three or four pounds of fish, and envied: "The eyes of the top-grade Spirit Fish, ah, the vision is so strong that it can see through clothes, the observation power when facing enemies in the future can be imagined."
Chen Fusheng was very happy, it seemed that he could cultivate the Ferocious Bird Diagram. Although he couldn't spread his wings like an eagle, he could strengthen his vision!
Chen Fusheng put a piece of fish into his mouth, it was so fragrant that he almost bit off his tongue, and an exotic fragrance exploded in his mouth, rushing straight to the top of his head, and he even felt a little drunk.
"Fragrant, too fragrant!"
Chen Fusheng's pores stretched out, swallowing clouds and spitting out auspiciousness, his physical foundation continued to be thick, and he vaguely exuded a Pressuring (pòrén: compelling/intimidating) pressure.
Wang Dapang looked at Chen Fusheng in shock. This kid's body seemed a little scary?
The seemingly delicate teenager actually had an oppressive aura.
Wang Lie was also amazed, how many days had it been? It was probably an amazing physique.
Huang Tiancheng's chopsticks tapped the Spirit Cauldron, "Eating too much tonic is harmful."
"I was too greedy." Wang Dapang couldn't eat anymore, his pores were oozing black and greasy oil, obviously this was human impurities, if it weren't for the fish fragrance covering it up, it would probably suffocate them.
Wang Lie had also reached his limit, his body was strong and powerful, his strength had climbed one or two times, and the energy in his Qi Sea had grown by thirty to forty percent on the original basis!
His eyes were red, this kind of physical body and Qi Sea could be called a genius!
Even because of the medicinal power of the Spirit Fish, his spiritual power seemed like a boat about to soar, and he couldn't help but sit down to observe the stars in the sky.
"I'll go first."
Wang Lie turned his head and ran towards home, roaring in his heart, could he possibly break through on his own? He was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes, and he laughed heartily.
Wang Dapang was just about to get up and leave when he suddenly said, "Oh, right, Fusheng, come out with me for a moment."
"Master Wang, what is it?" Chen Fusheng asked, puzzled, as he went out.
After Wang Dapang closed the door, he said, "Teng Lin has disappeared."
"Oh, what happened?" Chen Fusheng's heart tightened.
"Who knows?"
Wang Dapang picked his teeth with a fish bone, "That day Teng Lin went to find you, I know about that. Teng Xiong asked about Teng Lin's whereabouts a few days ago, but I didn't tell him that he went to find you."
