Chapter 534: The Definition of Adoration
The Moon Empress cut up the Spirit Savory Pig into small pieces and added some sauce made from Diamond Plums.
She set the dish down in front of Lin Yuan and said, “The Supreme Chef fattened up this Spirit Savory Pig with many good things. It’s slightly cloying even though it was roasted with the strange Fiery Meteor from the dimensional rift. The Heart Plum sauce is perfect for offsetting the sickening taste, and they taste pretty good together.”
Cold Moon already thought that the Moon Empress was going a bit too far when she used the Diamond Smooth Crystal-Thread Jujubes, but now she thought that the Moon Empress had gone right off the edge.
The Heart Plum was a medicine that could cure damaged sources.
Although healing-type spirit qi professionals could treat all sorts of injuries, if other spirit qi professionals’ feys did not have special exclusive skills, they would still be susceptible to damage from source-type lifeforms.
Injuries related to the heart were not only considered to be external injuries, but they were also under the umbrella of damaged sources.
In order to fully recover, they needed a Creation Master to treat them with a concoction made of spiritual ingredients.
The plant-type Heart Plum’s plums were effective against healing heart-related injuries.
Low-grade Heart Plums were not only sold all over Star Web’s Rare Lifeform Pavilion but they were also sold at large markets. They were not considered precious goods.
On the other hand, a Diamond Heart Plum was another matter.
The Heart Plum was a type of fey that was virtually impossible to nurture to evolve.
Most feys, including the Spirit-Siphon Goldfish, which needed to absorb many more times of spirit qi than other feys, would be able to evolve once they absorbed enough spirit qi.
However, the Heart Plum would be stuck once it reached Gold grade.
It would only be able to evolve if it absorbed the tree cores of ten other Heart Plums of the same grade.
An immeasurable quant.i.ty of low-grade Heart Plums’ tree cores would be needed to nurture a high-grade Heart Plum.
In the hands of a Creation Master, a Silver Heart Plum could soothe traumatized hearts.
Creation Masters could use Platinum Heart Plums to heal cracked hearts.
Creation Masters could use Heart Plums to heal shattered hearts, essentially saving a life.
The unique attribute of the Heart Plum was that it tasted delicious.
As a spiritual ingredient that could heal source injuries, the Heart Plum tasted much better than even the most premium food ingredients.
A few prestigious, affluent families made a habit of eating Heart Plums and even added a few dried ones into their cooking to enhance the flavor.
However, even the most elite of affluent families did not consume Heart Plums that were higher than Gold grade.
Cold Moon knew that the Moon Empress was not a wasteful person, and she only made the Diamond Heart Plum sauce because she wanted to nourish Lin Yuan’s body.
The heart circulated blood all over the body. After losing so much blood, Lin Yuan’s heart would not be able to circulate blood as well for some time.
Lin Yuan had already consumed a large portion of the Rabbit Emperor’s carrot, and regardless of how severe his injuries were, he was as strong as an ox now.
The Leaning Moon Mountain’s fruit orchard had seven or eight Diamond Heart Plum trees, and they produced a bountiful harvest each year.
However, Lin Yuan did not need the Diamond Heart Plum to treat his heart anymore!
Every time the Moon Empress and Lin Yuan interacted, Mystic Moon’s definition of adoration a Master could shower on her disciple was redefined.
Using the strange Fiery Meteor to roast the pig was not considered a waste. There would be no negative externalities, but the Moon Empress was probably the only person who would do so other than Chef Supreme.
The Moon Empress wanted to use the Fiery Meteor’s vibrations to induce the oil out of the pig.
Mystic Moon watched as the Moon Empress served Lin Yuan a plate of cut ribs, while the ever-solemn Cold Moon carefully held the Spirit Savory Pig’s ribs.
She sliced the meat off the most roasted parts and placed it on a plate.
Mystic Moon was puzzled.
Cold Moon doesn’t usually eat meat. Why does she look like she’s going to eat the Spirit Savory Pig’s rib meat?
After Cold Moon was done slicing the meat, she went on to slice a crispy golden piece of pigskin and ladled a spoonful of sauce all over the plate.
The tartness of the plums and the fragrance of the pigskin formed a perfect symphony.
Once eaten, one would taste two completely different flavors and textures. Mixing sweet and sour was the best way of eating the Spirit Savory Pig.
Mystic Moon was surprised to see that the normally vegetarian Cold Moon knew how to feast on the meat like a gourmet!
At that moment, Cold Moon placed the plate in front of Chu Ci, just like the Moon Empress did for Lin Yuan.
Mystic Moon noticed Cold Moon looking at him, her eyes s.h.i.+ning.
It was as though she was saying, “Hehe, how useless. You can’t even get yourself a disciple after walking the earth for such a long time.”
Mystic Moon immediately lost his appet.i.te.
These two sets of Masters and their sibling disciples looked like they were throwing him sc.r.a.ps that he chose to pathetically gobble up.
Mystic Moon could not help but want a disciple of his own.
Lin Yuan shoveled the pork ribs the Moon Empress had prepared for him and basked in her affection for him.
He took the opportunity to ask about the sacred source lifeform in the depths of his soul.
When the Moon Empress had mentioned sacred source lifeforms to Lin Yuan, she had told him not to tell anyone about his sacred source lifeform’s abilities.
Lin Yuan was not going to ask about his contracted sacred source lifeforms’ abilities because he had no idea what they were.
“Master, can sacred source lifeforms fuse?”
The Moon Empress was momentarily stunned before she quickly replied, “If a person’s soul is strong enough, they can contract two sacred source lifeforms. However, I’ve never heard of sacred source lifeforms fusing.”
The Moon Empress did not know what brought on Lin Yuan’s question, but she knew that he had contracted a sacred source lifeform from the dimensional rift.
Hence, she was troubled about his query regarding sacred source lifeforms.
