Chapter 331: 185

Translator: 549690339

At the top of the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden, none of the disciples from Golden Sword Peak or Jade Illusion Peak spoke of Zhou Yun Feng to the Guardian Beast at the start.

As this was their first encounter with the Guardian Beast, they were somewhat apprehensive. Even if they were only mentioning Zhou Yun Feng for the attention of potential Dan God elders, they were wary of offending the Spirit Beast.

After their discussion, they decided to wait until the Guardian Beast tasted their food before speaking of Zhou Yun Feng. If the beast continued to refuse, they planned to persistently bring it up during the last few days.

The female disciple from Jade Illusion Peak was the first to bring out a grill. She took a rabbit from her Spirit Pet Bag, which she had caught in the Secret Realm.

The Spirit Pet Bag was given to her by her master specifically to capture fresh ingredients in secret realms.

As time passed, more and more people came to the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden. Ten sects were represented by twenty individuals in total.

However, the majority of those who reached the Giant Spirit Tree were from the Righteous Sects, with no one from the Xuan Yin Sect or the Sky Demon Sect in sight.

Some Righteous Sect disciples couldn’t resist making a few jokes, suggesting that the Xuan Yin Sect and Sky Demon Sect might be left with only the Golden Core cultivators this time the Secret Realm is opened.

One disciple from the Blood Demonic Sect arrived at the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden. Seeing that it was primarily occupied by Righteous Sect disciples, he was relieved, grateful for having been saved by that elder who possibly was a doppelganger of a Dan God.

However, he suspected that most of the Heretic Sect disciples might have been killed by that same elder, as it wasn’t possible for them all to be in danger.

When he was rescued, the elder displayed a great disdain, suggesting that he had no affection for Heretic Sect disciples. Two of his fellow disciples had also arrived in the Wood Element area.

Later, after crossing the Misty Forest Gorge, due to differing needs in collecting Spirit Grass, he proceeded to the Peach-blossom Source Medicinal Garden, while the other two went to another Medicine Garden, and thus, they parted ways.

He had a fairly good understanding of his two fellow disciples. They were extremely ruthless, lacking any semblance of humanity, and naturally caught the elder’s attention.

After he joined them, they discussed horrific matters such as whose blood tasted the best or from which body part to extract blood.

Upon arriving at the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden, he was very cautious, gingerly finding a spot to take a seat, and began taking out tools from his Storage Bag to prepare food for the Guardian Beast.

However, he didn’t know how to cook much, only the basics of grilling meat. Looking around, he was somewhat speechless, as nine out of the eleven present were grilling meat.

It seemed that only the food prepared by the two Disciples of Liu Yun Sect was different. The competition truly was fierce.

Upon seeing the cooking scene in the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden through the Dan God’s Cave Mansion imagery, Lin Yi couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

What was originally serene herb garden had now turned into a grand cuisine competition, all because of him. Everyone was grilling rabbit meat, making it quite smoky, much to the chagrin of the Green Giant Python.

However, in the future, each major sect would likely produce Qi Refinement cultivators specializing in cooking, in preparation for the next opening of the Dan God Secret Realm.

If it were to open again, it would be at least a decade later. By then, he might have already achieved the Golden Core stage.

Before long, the final Liu Yun Sect disciple to enter the wood Element area also arrived at the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden; he was a Hua Yang Peak disciple named Xie Shao Jie.

Outside the herb garden, he looked at everyone preparing their various ingredients and couldn’t help but laugh, “Fellow Daoists, you’ve all arrived quite early. However, arriving early doesn’t matter much, it all comes down to one’s abilities.”

A disciple from the Spirit Control Sect couldn’t help but scoff, “Huh, so you’re saying you’re very skilled? I remember when we were taught in the Liu Yun Sect, I sat behind you. The food you made wasn’t much better than mine.”

Their sect had a good relationship with the Liu Yun Sect, but they honored the native lineage of the Liu Yun Sect, not the foreign lineage of Hua Yang Zhen Ren.

“You don’t understand,” Xie Shao Jie chuckled, and began preparing his food, choosing to grill rabbit meat. It was the simplest and most convenient ingredient, so he also caught some rabbits on the way here.

Once the rabbit meat was grilled, he strode towards the Green Giant Python confidently.

At this moment, all eyes from various sects’ disciples were on Xie Shao Jie. His grilled rabbit meat was mediocre at best. Where was this confidence coming from?

Earlier, the female disciple from Jade Illusion Peak of the Liu Yun Sect had grilled a rabbit almost identical to Lin Yi’s, yet the Green Giant Python had shown no reaction to it.

With a smile on his face, Xie Shao Jie bowed with a closed fist to the Green Giant Python, “Senior Python, you must still remember Elder Uncle Lin Yi, who fed you during the last journey into the Secret Realm?”

“I am his apprentice nephew, and we have a very close relationship. He asked me to come here this time to feed you on his behalf. Please be sure to have a taste.”

Hearing his words, everyone was astonished. They had seen shameless people before, but never someone this shameless.

Even the disciples of the Sky Sword Sect were disturbed, “Really? You’re saying you have a very close relationship with Elder Uncle Lin Yi? Why don’t you claim to be his son?”
