Bean Heavenly Venerable's Personal Disciple
"You know what, it tastes pretty good!" Petrified Bone exclaimed. He savored it carefully and tasted a flavor that seemed to have been roasted by real fire.
Was it cooked with real fire?
Using petrochemical bones to open a barbecue restaurant and grill them over a real fire is definitely a big investment.
The thought of coming to the barbecue restaurant three times before finally getting inside made Petrified Bone furious. After finishing three pounds of lamb skewers, he wiped his mouth and exclaimed, "Ten skewers of grilled kidneys, please!"
The surrounding diners stared in astonishment at the petrified bone. Grilled skewers are supposed to be aphrodisiacs, and you've ordered ten skewers of this aphrodisiac version of grilled kidneys? What's the difference between this and taking aphrodisiacs?
Who is Petrified Bone? He is a powerful being in the Integrated Body Late Stage. This level of aphrodisiac is negligible to him.
Huo Spirit Transformation and Zhou Shan ate with gusto, their mouths greasy, thinking it was better to follow Petrified Bone; not only did they not have to spend money when they went out, they could also eat all kinds of delicious food.
However, after the three of them had finished eating, they discovered a problem.
There was still some time before the shop closed, and the people from the Heavenly Court were busy acting as waiters and didn't have time to deal with them. If they left, it was obvious they weren't really there to eat.
If we don't leave, sitting here like this isn't a good idea.
"Hey, you mean the three of them finished eating and are just sitting here because they don't have money to pay the bill?" Meng Jingzhou asked quietly.
This was the first time he had encountered someone trying to dine and dash.
Li Haoran transmitted his voice. "I don't recognize the two next to him. The one in the middle who eats the most is called Petrified Bone. He used to be the vice leader. I don't know if he was promoted after Qin Haoran passed away."
Meng Jingzhou was overjoyed. "The Nine Nether Sect has finally sent someone?"
Qin Yanyan didn't dare to speak. It seemed that these three people had come last night and she had kicked them out.
In the backyard, two automatic barbecue grills are running at full capacity. Thanks to the design of the Fifth Elder, not only has the grilling of skewers been automated, but the efficiency of grilling has also been greatly improved.
The barbecue grill is shaped like a bookshelf, with four layers, each filled with items that are slowly rotating and being grilled over a real fire, sizzling and dripping oil.
After the Fifth Elder devoted themselves to research, they finally combined the Samadhi True Fire and the Pure Yang True Fire together to create a kind of fire for grilling.
The recent visitor numbers also prove the Fifth Elder's research findings.
"Fifth Elder, the Nine Nether Sect is here," Lu Yang said to the Fifth Elder, who was squatting on the ground studying how to improve the automatic barbecue grill.
"Knew."
When the barbecue restaurant closed and the last customer left, it revealed its true colors—a stronghold of the Heavenly Court Cult.
At the table, two forces were clearly divided: one was the Nine Nether Sect, represented by Petrified Bone, and the other was the Heavenly Court Sect, represented by Lu Yang.
"It's really not easy to get a meeting with your Heavenly Court Sect," Petrified Bone sneered, dissatisfied with the treatment he received last night and this morning.
Lu Yang couldn't understand where the other party's resentment came from, so he didn't respond, "This must be the famous Nascent Integrated Body Realm Cultivator of the Nine Nether Sect, Petrified Bone."
A man walked out from behind Lu Yang, causing the petrified bone, who had been somewhat relaxed, to tense up abruptly.
He felt a strong sense of threat from the other person.
He might not be able to beat his opponent in a one-on-one fight!
Lu Yang smiled and said, "Let me introduce you. My Heavenly Court Sect has a total of nine protectors. This is the fifth protector, the Treasure King. He was renowned in High Antiquity times, and even my master praised his unique approach to weapon crafting, suggesting he could forge immortal artifacts. I wonder if Sect Leader Shi has heard of him?"
Regardless of whether the other party is the leader or the deputy leader, it is always correct to address them as the leader.
The Fifth Elder bowed. "Young Master, that was just a joke by the Heavenly Venerable, it shouldn't be taken seriously."
Petrified Bone looked at Zhou Shan, who secretly shook his head, indicating that he hadn't heard of it either. Petrified Bone clasped his hands in greeting. "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Duobao. It's a pity that the events of High Antiquity are too distant for us, and we have forgotten too much. We have never heard of your esteemed name."
"I wonder why Fellow Daoist Duobao addresses him as Young Master?"
"Fellow Daoist Shi, you may not know this, but Lu Yiyang is the personal disciple of Heavenly Venerable Dou, and his only disciple. He is the undisputed next ruler of the Heavenly Court."
Petrified Bone was shocked. This was a disciple of Bean Celestial Venerable, who was the first immortal in High Antiquity! Didn't this mean that this Lu Yang was a disciple of an immortal?
In terms of status, he's probably a notch above him, who's at the Body Integration Realm!
In the spiritual space, the Immortal Fairy jumped for joy. "Lu Yang, I knew you'd always considered me your master!"
Lu Yang: "..."
In reality, Lu Yang, upon hearing that the petrified bone had never heard of the name of the Treasure King, couldn't help but sigh, "Yes, the High Antiquity times are too far removed from the present. Even when we first awoke, we felt that the world was impermanent. The world had undergone earth-shattering changes. The original stars disappeared and were refined into boundless continents. All the familiar people and things are gone."
Lu Yang's gaze was deep, revealing a hint of loneliness, as if he were recalling High Antiquity times.
Taking the opportunity, Petrified Bone asked, "Do you know who refined the stars?"
Lu Yang shook his head. "This happened after our Heavenly Court Sect fell into a long slumber. We don't know the reason. Our sect is looking for Ying Tianxian and others to inquire about what happened in the past 300,000 years. I wonder if the Nine Nether Sect has any clues about the immortals."
Petrified Bone had no idea where Ying Tianxian and the other three were; he could only regretfully say that he didn't know.
He gave Zhou Shan a look, signaling Zhou Shan to ask something.
Zhou Shan thought for a moment, then clasped his hands in a fist and asked, "My name is Zhou Shan. I have some questions while researching High Antiquity history. I wonder if you fellow Daoists could enlighten me?"
"I will certainly speak frankly and without reservation."
"I've heard of a great cultivator in High Antiquity who mastered the art of making his words law, becoming invincible among his peers, but in the end, he vanished without a trace, and his whereabouts remain unknown..."
Lu Yang smiled faintly and said, "I have just heard about that senior's deeds. He was a formidable enemy on Master's path to immortality. In the end, he was no match for Master and his soul was scattered."
Lu Yang had heard the Immortal Fairy tell this story. The Immortal Fairy ambushed her opponent, who yelled, "It hurts so much!" and then, as if by magic, spoke himself to death.
However, the other party may not believe you if you say that.
Please elaborate.
"That senior mastered the great Divine Ability of making his words become law, and the life or death of his opponents was only a moment away. He was invincible and never suffered a defeat, until he met his master."
"That day, Master encountered a senior who had mastered the art of making words law. Knowing that they were both formidable enemies and that holding back would be tantamount to suicide, the two engaged in a fierce battle. The Daoist Movement Method surged, the magical Law Power raged, and the universe fell silent. Master's movements were unparalleled, appearing and disappearing like a ghost, making him impossible to catch. Seeing that he could not defeat Master, the opponent used the art of making words law, shouting '... Die...'. Unexpectedly, the art of making words law was completely useless against Master. On the contrary, the opponent was devoured by the art of making words law, and died, his Dao dissipated, and he perished."
The petrified bone was utterly shocked. At that time, the Bean Celestial Venerable hadn't even become an immortal yet, and he was already immune to the invincible power of words becoming law?
How powerful is that?
He had been watching Lu Yang's pupils and heartbeat closely, and all signs indicated that the other party was telling the truth!
