Chapter 723: Meeting on a Narrow Road
"We are fellow practitioners of the three paths, and we cannot be judged by common sense," Qin Ziling said.
Are you kidding? Let alone these two, even if it was the leader wolf that was comparable to a seventh-grade True Immortal, he could eat half of it in one breath.
Of course, Tai Shi Ba is a guy with a body of a golden dragon and a genuine ninth-rank immortal, while Qin Ziling can only exert the combat power of a ninth-rank immortal with the help of the fragment of the heaven-defying treasure, the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover. Currently, his personal strength is definitely no match for Tai Shi Ba.
However, Tai Shiba is already at the ninth rank, and the next level up is to become a Taoist immortal. There is no room for breakthrough in this Dark Emperor Heaven. After taking in tones to a certain extent, he will reach saturation, and it will be useless to eat more.
Qin Ziling is different. Not only does he practice three paths at the same time, but the realms of all three paths are still very low. The space he can break through in Dark Emperor Heaven is much larger than anyone else.
He was not worried about saturation, he was only worried about not being able to find enough good resources to allow him to break through as soon as possible.
"But your cultivation is still too... Never mind. It's up to you. Just be careful and don't try to be too aggressive. Too much is as bad as too little." Lan Ran said.
"I'll pay attention." Qin Ziling nodded.
As he spoke, he kept turning the wolf meat.
“Shhh!”
The sound of fat being grilled on the rack could be heard, emitting bursts of meaty aroma.
"Today I'll show you my cooking skills." When the wolf meat was almost roasted, Qin Ziling took out some cooking seasonings from the storage ring and skillfully applied them on it.
Soon, the aroma of the meat became stronger and better smelling.
"Hehe, let's try adding some Earth Spirit Fruit." Seeing that the fire was almost ready, Qin Ziling squeezed some Earth Spirit Fruit juice on it.
A drop of this earth spirit juice was sprinkled on the earth wolf meat, and immediately the glow runes on the earth wolf meat lit up. When the glow runes faded, the earth wolf meat turned into a golden and oily glow, which aroused people's appetite. A very rich meaty aroma wafted out, causing the mouth to secrete saliva uncontrollably.
"Gulp!" A sound of swallowing saliva was heard beside the pool.
Qin Ziling raised his eyes and looked at Lan Ran with a smile on his face.
Lan Ran's pretty face turned slightly red, she snorted and turned her head away.
I really can't afford to lose face!
Qin Ziling smiled knowingly upon seeing this, took out a small knife and swung it at a ground wolf leg. Suddenly, the knife flashed brightly, and slices of roasted ground wolf meat flew up and landed neatly on a plate.
"Master Lan Feng, please try my cooking!" Qin Ziling took out a knife and fork and placed them on a plate, then handed them to Lan Ran, who was facing away from him while trying to suppress the aroma.
Lan Ran saw a plate of neatly sliced barbecue suddenly appear under his eyes, with a knife and fork on it. The tempting aroma filled his nose. He was so happy that he finally didn't care about the embarrassing behavior just now. He reached out and took the plate, said thank you, and started eating.
At first, Lan Ran ate in a reserved and delicate manner due to his status, but he soon began to devour the food voraciously because the roasted wolf meat was so delicious. As the wolf meat entered his stomach, his entire stomach became warm, and traces of immortal spirit and blood power slowly flowed to his meridians and limbs.
Lan Ran could clearly feel his spiritual power growing, and his whole body became stronger.
This change is gradual, and does not make people feel uncomfortable at all, nor does it require one to use all their strength to practice the techniques to refine it.
Unlike most elixirs, once taken, the elixir's power would burst out like a mountain torrent, requiring one to use all one's strength to practice the techniques to refine and suppress it. Some elixirs even required one to endure great pain when taken, and if one was not careful there was a risk of breaking meridians and going possessed.
But eating this ground wolf meat can not only satisfy the appetite, but the increase in cultivation power can also bring people incomparable pleasure and comfort.
Of course, no matter how voraciously Lan Ran ate, he still ate the meat with a fork. But Qin Ziling was different. He just took a big wolf leg and tore it off bite by bite.
He ate up the entire wolf leg, but his stomach was not even bulging at all. He had already absorbed and refined all the meat into his own immortal power and qi and blood strength.
While Qin Ziling was holding the wolf leg and eating the meat, he did not forget to maintain his gentlemanly demeanor. As soon as Lan Ran's plate was empty, he immediately handed him another new plate of wolf meat. This made Lan Ran less embarrassed, and when he was eating the meat, he looked at Qin Ziling with a little more gentleness and appreciation. He did not think that there was anything indecent and vulgar about him holding the wolf leg and biting it with big mouthfuls, but rather thought it was very rough and wild.
The two were feasting on the food, and not long after they had eaten half of the wolf's meat, six figures suddenly appeared at the mouth of the canyon and flew towards them.
Among them there was a figure Lan Ran was very familiar with, it was Shen Tu Kun, the master of Xuansha Peak, and the other five were teammates he had recruited on Heimo Island.
When Lan Ran saw Shentu Kun and others rushing over, his expression changed slightly. He waved his hand towards the grill and prepared to put away the wolf meat and leave.
"Haha, Master Lan Feng, it's true that we meet everywhere in life. You can go, but you have to stay for this barbecue of the divine beast and that kid." Shentu Kun laughed out loud.
As he laughed out loud, a bead rose from behind his head like a black moon and hung in the air, with cold black light shining towards Lan Ran.
The cold black light was like a knife, and when it shone past, the space seemed to be cut.
Lan Ran's face changed slightly when he saw this, and he withdrew his hand reluctantly. A crystal clear ice sword flew out, and sword light filled the sky.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
The sword light and the black light as sharp as a knife collided in the air, making a crisp sound of metal clashing.
A trace of blood rushed to Lan Ran's face, but it was quickly suppressed. Then he flashed and stood in front of Qin Ziling.
At this time, Shentu Kun had already brought five people to fly close to the pool, forming a semicircular encirclement. Behind Qin Ziling and Lan Ran was a waterfall cliff.
"Shentu Kun, this is the ground wolf meat. It all belongs to you. I will take the person away." Lan Ran said to Shentu Kun, the blue ice sword in front of him emitting a cold sword light.
"Hehe, Lan Ran, you haven't forgotten where this place is, have you? You even dare to bargain with me. Well, since you don't know how to appreciate my courtesy, then you can stay here too." Shentu Kun said coldly.
"Shen Tu Kun, you..." Lan Ran looked at Shen Tu Kun in disbelief.
Lan Ran wouldn't be too surprised that Shentu Kun wanted to kill Qin Ziling.
But the fact that he even wanted to kill himself really shocked Lan Ran.
Both of them are from Jiuxuan Sect, and are the masters of Xuanfeng Peak.
He wanted to kill her, which was definitely an act of betrayal to the sect.
"Are you surprised? Do you think that since we are from the same sect and are the masters of Xuanfeng, I will never kill you even if we have different minds and are not on the same path?" Shentu Kun saw Lan Ran's shocked expression and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth with a hint of sarcasm and contempt.
"That's right, Shentu Kun, I know you are not a good person and you are cruel and ruthless, but I never thought you would dare to betray the sect!" Lan Ran said.
