Chapter 2541: Prohibit Mìfǎ
Only seeing tens of thousands of people, vast and mighty, bringing two thousand heads of Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients to the Fire Room, each one still vigorous and high-spirited.
Inside the Fire Room, seeing the crowd again bringing ingredients forward, Ye Zhangqing's expression was somewhat strange.
With so many people, they only managed to get two thousand heads of Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients, and each one even used Mìfǎ—what's there to be proud of?
I can't understand it, after all Ye Zhangqing doesn't know the situation outside.
But just from what we see before us, tens of thousands of people managed to get two thousand heads of ingredients, and they even opened Mìfǎ—no matter how you look at it, it's not worth being proud of.
Somewhat inexplicable.
However, after putting down the ingredients, the crowd merely gave Ye Zhangqing a simple salute, then immediately grinned and excitedly ran out of the Fire Room.
Arriving at the food distribution area, they loudly shouted.
"Make way, make way, I used Mìfǎ, give me a bowl first."
Using Mìfǎ meant you could eat first, but soon, among the queue, almost half of the people's responses directly made one feel gloomy.
Only heard someone pout and say.
"It's as if no one had used Mìfǎ, lining up at the back."
"Exactly, everyone here has used Mìfǎ; first come, first served, those behind line up."
"Huh??? You used Mìfǎ and still have to line up?"
Hearing this, those people were stunned, but upon looking closely, they discovered that the people at the front of the queue were indeed all using Mìfǎ.
Some even had side effects descend.
In a moment, the originally excited mood instantly sank to the bottom of the valley—what kind of thing is this, using Mìfǎ and still having to line up?
But since everyone used Mìfǎ, we can only go by first come, first served.
As for taking action here, nobody has the guts.
If this directly results in losing the right to eat, then at that point there really would be nowhere to cry.
The rules of the Fire Room must be observed; this is something nobody can violate.
In a moment, at the food distribution area, more than half of the people were those who had used Mìfǎ.
When Zhao Lao and the others came to inspect, seeing this scene, they were dumbfounded.
Frowning, the leading Zhao Lao questioned doubtfully.
"How come so many people used Mìfǎ? Is the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon's offensive really that fierce?"
After all this effort, they only managed to get how many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients, yet so many people opened Mìfǎ—something's off.
Just speaking in terms of numbers, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons can't even compare—is it necessary to open Mìfǎ?
Meanwhile, Huang Lao beside him laughed and said.
"Zhao Lao, you previously ordered that those who opened Mìfǎ could eat first; if you don't open it, that would be strange."
For Huang Lao, who has eaten all the way from the Immortal Realm to Beyond the Heavens, this dining experience goes without saying; he instantly understood everything.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Lao was stunned, then couldn't help but feel a grating sensation in his teeth.
So this matter is still being blamed on him?
But given the current situation, it really seems to be because of his order.
Just these guys, for the sake of eating, aren't they trying a bit too hard?
Mìfǎ, you guys just open it casually?
If at that time they can't promptly get a meal, fall into weakness, and the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons launch a major attack, wouldn't that ruin big things?
Thinking of this, Zhao Lao's face darkened, and he immediately changed the order.
From this moment on, without an order from the Present Era's Strongest, nobody may privately initiate Mìfǎ.
Whoever privately uses Mìfǎ will directly lose their eating privileges.
This punishment is absolutely effective; upon hearing Zhao Lao's words, the people queuing for food were stunned, then could only sigh helplessly.
It seems this tactic won't work either; Mìfǎ can't be used.
Frustrated, he let those who had used Mìfǎ go eat first, at least to alleviate the side effects of Mìfǎ.
As for afterward, whoever privately opens Mìfǎ again will directly lose their eating privileges.
"Utter nonsense."
After dealing with these, Zhao Lao then left with a dark face.
This time, there were more people from the Heavenly Family and Wushen Palace in the queue; the true number of strong ones from the Heavenly Palace was much fewer.
Therefore, what Zhao Lao commanded was actually a team from the Immortal Realm, not cultivators of the Human Race from Beyond the Heavens.
Facing the methods of these people from the Immortal Realm, Zhao Lao was also seeing them for the first time; thus, lacking experience, he issued chaotic orders.
But unexpectedly, the people from the Heavenly Family and Wushen Palace could actually reach this extent.
After finding out, Zhao Lao's mustache was all askew from anger.
Hundreds to thousands of people surrounded a single Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredient, and in the end they all opened Mìfǎ.
This is damn not nonsense.
With so many people dealing with a single Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredient, you could each just blow a breath and kill that ingredient.
Simply outrageous.
At this moment, Zhao Lao seemed to have the same feeling as those earlier Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients.
These Immortal Realm bastards are simply nonsense, acting without restraint.
Immediately felt that banning Mìfǎ was a wise decision; otherwise these guys would likely treat Mìfǎ as an ordinary technique.
Regardless of the situation, open it first and talk later.
Inside the Fire Room, hearing Zhao Lao's scolding, Ye Zhangqing also understood the whole story.
But it's not really surprising either; just standard procedure.
It's just that these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons are really strange; facing such crazy actions by Human Race cultivators, they still actively come to the door, which is also strange.
The most important thing is, these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons also do not launch a strong attack.
Instead, they come in batches, giving the feeling that they are actively seeking death.
You say, facing so many Human Race cultivators, even a pig's head would know; you bring out several thousand ingredients each time—what use is that?
Besides walking into a trap, they basically pose no threat at all to the Human Race side.
I don't know what the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons are thinking; could it really be that they're just here to deliver warmth?
Since everyone arrived at this celestial crystal mine, the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons have been coming in batches like this, without stopping much during the period.
You say if you want to fight, then bring out your real skills and fight properly; this kind of self‑seeking‑death behavior, why is it?
There are too many people; are they deliberately sending some?
Inside the Fire Room, it's unusually busy; many Immortal Chefs from the Cooking King Immortal City are busy processing the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients.
Ye Zhangqing, on the contrary, has time to rest.
As for Zhao Lao, he personally takes charge of the meal distribution, in order to personally supervise and see who still dares to secretly use the secret method.
With Zhao Lao personally in charge, many cultivators certainly won't act recklessly.
If caught, losing the qualification to eat, then there's nowhere to cry.
On the other side, seeing so many Human Race cultivators activate the secret method, the few Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons leading at the entrance said satisfiedly.
"Already quite a few Human Race cultivators have used the secret method; after a few more times, we can report to the Demon God."
"Yes, wait until these Human Race cultivators have all used the secret method and entered the weakened period; then it will be the perfect opportunity for us to counterattack."
"These Human Race people are really seeking death; they casually use the secret method, do they really think we have no preparation at all?"
"Alright, don't waste time; continue preparing the next lure."
"Good."
Human Race cultivators using the secret method is exactly what the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons want to see; however, they have not investigated the reason for it.
