Chapter 1603 Eating on the Journey
Zhang Han and Yue Wuwei just sat down.
Hiss!
Dahei jumped out of Mengmeng’s schoolbag. It was a miniature gorilla. It ran to Zhang Han and hugged his leg.
“It’s such a waste, host. You left so much meat over there.”
What Dahei said made everyone laugh.
This guy was also a super foodie.
Zhang Han couldn’t help laughing. “Not every piece of meat of an Eight-legged Snake Dragon can be eaten. Some parts of its body are poisonous and some parts are not nutritious. Of course, I don’t need to keep them. But I’ve taken all their inner pellets. Go ahead and eat them.”
While speaking, Zhang Han took out eight inner pellets.
“I can’t bite this thing. Second Brother, you eat it.” Dahei patted its chest very carefully.
Plop!
Zhang Han threw out a large piece of meat, about two cubic meters.
Dahei smiled and dragged the meat to roast it.
“What should we do first?”
Zhang Han thought for a moment and said, “Cook a pot of soup and then roast some meat. It’s relatively simple.”
He did as he said.
There were kebabs on the large barbecue grill. The meat chunks were like small fists, and each kebab could almost fill an ordinary person.
Mengmeng roasted more than a thousand kebabs in person. In just a few minutes, the smell of meat rose.
Without any seasonings, just the smell of meat was enough to make people drool.
After a while, the soup was done.
“There’s too much. How about having some vegetarian dishes?” Zi Yan grinned.
Now, she liked to order vegetarian dishes at every meal.
Zhang Han was also in the mood to cook, so he cooked some vegetables.
Soon, the catering party in the secondary s.p.a.ce began.
“Hahaha, traveling is amazing.” Ning Chen laughed heartily.
“Come on, let’s drink another jar of wine,” Li Shan said.
“Cheers!”
Zhang Guangyou’s face turned red.
Zi Qiang who came with them had already got drunk. He lay under the table and then was sent back to the room by Xu Xinyu.
Although she drank too much every time, the effect was obvious. Unknowingly, Zi Qiang was about to reach the Elixir Realm.
“This meat is delicious.” Felina ate it with relish.
“It’s really delicious. I didn’t expect that such an ugly Exotic Beast would be so delicious,” Kong Ling’er said with a smile.
Since she followed Zhang Han and became his disciple, she suddenly found that the Barren Star Area of the Cultivation World seemed to be different.
In the past, it had been quite dangerous. Whenever she encountered an Exotic Beast, she would take a detour.
But now, those horrible Exotic Beasts had become a meal. Among them, some were at the Tribulation Stage First Tier or the Second Tier. Sometimes, the crowd would encounter the ancient demonic beasts at the Tribulation Stage Third Tier.
“This soup doesn’t taste like meat soup at all.” Mengmeng took a sip and said, “It tastes a little strange. It seems to be a kind of flower fragrance?”
“It does smell like flowers.”
Zhang Han nodded and said, “The tail of an Eight-legged Snake Dragon is the essence of its body. Taking it will greatly nourish one’s body.”
The dragon tail could be used as one of the main ingredients of several kinds of medicinal pellets. But Zhang Han was too lazy to do pellet refining. Eating it directly would lose a lot of energy, but he liked to study delicacies.
Zhang Han said, “Eat them all. After eating, you will go into seclusion. You should be able to absorb them all in about a month.”
They ate soup while barbecuing. One-fifth of the Eight-legged Snake Dragons were fed to Dahei and Little Hei.
The rest was eaten by everyone.
“My whole body is hot and dry.”
“The energy is growing so fast. No, no, I have to refine it.”
“We’re cultivating in seclusion.”
“…”
The crowd went to different rooms one after another.
Originally, there were not many rooms in the king vessel. All the rooms were all kinds of halls. As for the Dragon Honor, it was a luxurious s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p. There were thousands of guest rooms and all kinds of entertainment facilities.
It was like a private plane equipped with all kinds of services.
There was enough room for cultivation. Except for Yue Wuwei, Zhang Han, Ning Chen, and other Tribulation Stage Dao Seeking Cultivators, who didn’t need to refine the energy especially, the others all began their cultivation.
A month pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p stopped twice. The first time it stopped was because of the Starry Hair-wolves the crowd saw.
Zhang Han said bluntly, “Let’s go. These animals live in groups. There must be tens of millions of wolves nearby, and their meat is not delicious.”
Yue Wuwei cast a defensive supernatural power, and the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p successfully escaped.
The second time the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p stopped, the crowd saw some Azure-Winged Bulls.
There were a total of 300 of them.
Sensing the s.p.a.ce fluctuation, the Bull King moved its horn, which almost pierced a hole in the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
“Azure-Winged Bulls are quite rare.”
Zhang Han sighed with emotion.
The King of the Azure-Winged Bulls had reached the fifth tier of the Tribulation Stage, and its physical defense was invincible. Yue Wuwei couldn’t do anything about it.
The crowd had wanted to retreat, but for some unknown reason, the raging Bull King had to target the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
“The Bull King is very vengeful.”
Zhang Han said, “They like metal. Maybe they’re into our s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.”
“Stop studying it. Hurry up and kill a few of them so that the bull will take the initiative to escape.” Yue Wuwei was engaged in a fierce battle with the Bull King.
The others were frightened when they saw this.
“Elder Yue is too powerful. That bull is also very powerful.”
At this time, Zhang Han took action.
The Thunder Body appeared.
The Thunder Willow knocked out dozens of bulls with one move.
At this moment, they fainted.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Zhang Han slaughtered nine bulls and put them into his s.p.a.ce Ring.
“Moo!”
The Bull King was furious and its attacks became even more cunning and fierce. Even Yue Wuwei had to use his moves to temporarily avoid the attack.
“You little bull, don’t push your luck. Believe it or not, I’ll kill you,” Yue Wuwei glared at the Bull King.
Looking at the charging Bull King, Yue Wuwei threw out a huge piece of metal.
It was a nice treasure.
Taking advantage of the two seconds when the Bull King was in a daze, Yue Wuwei withdrew. He cast three defensive supernatural powers to make the king vessel leave.
He also knew that Zhang Han had said that the Bull King was vengeful, so it was better not to continue to fight. Otherwise, this stubborn bull would probably fight with him for a few years.
Yue Wuwei got back on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
“This bull is really awesome.” Yue Wuwei exhaled and said, “Its defense is abnormal. Its horns are too powerful.”
“If it was at the fourth tier, it might have escaped.”
“Dad, you got a few more bulls.” Mengmeng looked at the s.p.a.ce Ring on Zhang Han’s hand with her big eyes.
“I got nine.”
Zhang Han said, “These bulls are nice. Their body parts are all treasures. Among the nine bulls, six are at the second tier of the Tribulation Stage, and three haven’t reached the Tribulation Stage yet.”
Ning Chen exclaimed, “Holy cow! You killed six second-tier Tribulation Stage bulls so easily!”
“It’s a big meal this time.”
Zhang Han chuckled.
He took out a bull and began to dismember it entierly.
The bulls at the second tier of the Tribulation Stage weighed about 1,500 kilograms. The parts of them each that couldn’t be eaten weighed only a dozen kilograms.
Then, the feast began.
The bulls’ bones were stewed for three hours. Under the power of the Profound Underworld Holy Fire, they were smashed into pieces.
Everyone drank the soup, Dahei ate the meat on the bones, and Little Hei ate the bones.
“Little Hei is really lucky. Nearly half of the essence of the Azure-Winged Bull is in the bones.” Zhang Han said with a smile, “Most of its essence is on the azure wings. What we are going to eat next is the wings.”
The meat was steamed, boiled, and eaten with dipping condiments. As soon as it entered the mouth, it melted. The delicious meat made one immersed in it.
Moments later, all of the wings were finished.
“I, burp, I really can’t eat anymore. I’ll go back first. Enjoy your meal.”
Zi Qiang and Xu Xinyu, who were relatively weak, couldn’t bear the energy and hurried back to digest it.
The others continued to eat because the bulls’ energy was too pure.
“Let’s have some steaks next.”
“Next, we’ll have stewed beef.”
“Now let’s eat some fried beef tails.”
They had eaten enough.
Some people also got drunk, including Dong Chen, the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Knights Sect.
He blushed and said with a smile, “Who’s going to have the bulls’ b.a.l.l.s?”
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
There was silence in the field.
“I’ll eat one first!”
Dong Chen made a big fuss and finished it in one gulp.
“Well…” Zhang Mu laughed.
Zhang Han said, “There are not many people left to finish the next dish. As for the remaining viscera, let’s stew it in a pot.”
There were only more than 30 people left in the field.
The feast continued with the start of the next dish.
They ate for two whole days.
Only then did the feast come to an end.
“I feel like I’m about to make another breakthrough just as the last one ended.”
Everyone went to Zhang Han to get medicinal pellets, which were like indigestion pills, accelerating digestion and absorption.
“This is like the cheating programs.”
When there were only a few people left on the scene, Yue Wuwei stroked his beard and sighed with emotion.
Zhang Han smiled faintly and said, “Because this is already a high-end Cultivation World. Below the Tribulation Stage Ninth Tier, there are a lot of Tribulation Stage First Tier cultivators. It’s easy for people to reach the Tribulation Stage precisely because of these ancient demonic beasts, the secret realms that have appeared, and the spirit treasures of the place. Of course, most of them are at the Peak Stage of the Mastery Realm. They need to pa.s.s the Inner Demon Tribulation on their own to reach the Tribulation Stage. No matter how many spirit treasures they use or how many Exotic Beasts they eat, it’s useless. Therefore, most members of the super sects are at the Peak Stage of the Mastery Realm. Maybe about one in ten thousand of them could be at the Tribulation Stage.”
“That’s a terrifying number.” Zi Yan grinned. “So, the guys will soon reach the Peak Stage of the Mastery Realm, won’t they?”
“If everything goes well while we travel in the Center Galaxy for a few years, it’s possible, but it’s not necessarily true. After all, there are very few Azure-Winged Bulls in the Center Galaxy. It’s lucky for us to meet some. If others meet them, it may be a disaster,” Zhang Han said with a smile.
The Azure-Winged Bull King was very powerful. It had few opponents in the Center Galaxy.
The meat of an Azure-Winged Bull was not something that anyone could eat.
This was also the reason why Zhang Han had brought his group here. They might not be able to encounter an Exotic Beast like the Azure-Winged Bull, but what if they did?
The core members of Mount New Moon would be significantly promoted, which was also a relatively important thing on the way.
Of course, the most important thing was Zhang Han’s cultivation and the rescue of Gu Linli.
She was a member of the Poli Clan, which was rare and made her useful to Black Spirit Wizards. Zhang Han felt that she probably was still alive.
The Sect Master of Illusory Sea Manor had provided timely a.s.sistance at this critical moment.
Zhang Han kept it in mind and needed to repay his kindness.
On the way in the starry sky, the crowd didn’t encounter any high-end ingredients like the Azure-Winged Bulls again.
They met several other groups of Starry Sky Beasts that took the initiative to throw their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p out of the secondary s.p.a.ce.
Zhang Han always knew when to turn Exotic Beasts into delicious ingredients.
The most important thing was that the Seven-star Sword had also changed. It was no longer a weapon to fight, but a kitchen knife.
The magnificent Profound-grade treasure, the Seven-star Sword, had become a commonly used kitchen sword.
The crowd traveled and ate all the way.
Eight months pa.s.sed.
While crossing more than 3,000 cosmos chaotic flows, they encountered Starry Sky Beasts a few hundred times.
The strongest one was the Azure-Winged Bull King.
The crowd finally arrived at the edge of the Center Galaxy.
The Center Galaxy was extremely vast.
From a distance, it looked like a great river across the void.
It was like a prosperous city under the night sky.
“In the Center Galaxy, there are a total of three areas, upper, middle, and lower.
“The Human Clan’s territory in the Center Galaxy occupies less than a ten-thousandth of its area.
“There are many secret realms here. They keep appearing and disappearing.
“Your strength has improved a lot. In the following journey, when you encounter a secret realm, you can train in it appropriately.”
