Chapter 215: Yin-Yang Two Qi
This is a dish that's all the rage throughout the Heavenly Court!
And it's made personally by Manager Chen—how could he possibly miss it?
The Golden-Winged Great Peng beside him, seeing the Peng Demon King like this, couldn't help but speak: "Aren't you ordering for me? How come you ended up ordering instead?"
The Peng Demon King chuckled: "Just order, just order."
After glancing at the various dishes on the menu, the Peng Demon King still couldn't bear to part with the roasted lamb leg, his eyes darting as he murmured: "You order the roasted lamb leg—it's delicious."
Let the Golden-Winged Great Peng order; later, I'll find an excuse to take a bit.
But the Golden-Winged Great Peng simply wouldn't buy it, his face full of disdain: "It's you who wants to eat it!"
He just went ahead and ordered the roasted lamb leg—who are you trying to fool?
"You ordered it, so I'll share my dish with you." Unable to bluff his way out, the Peng Demon King hardened his heart and said.
"Good!"
The Golden-Winged Great Peng didn't think much of it, nodding—being able to eat one more dish couldn't be better!
He looked up at Chen Nuo: "Then trouble Manager Chen for a serving of roasted lamb leg—how much?"
He sometimes goes to the Mortal Realm too; although he doesn't have much money on him, he still has more than enough for a meal.
"My Chaos Residence doesn't collect payment that way—just place your hand on this crystal ball, and you'll know the cost of this meal." Chen Nuo spoke calmly, then handed the crystal ball over.
The Golden-Winged Great Peng was somewhat dazed, but seeing the crystal ball before him, he still did as told.
He lightly placed his hand on the crystal ball, and in an instant, the Golden-Winged Great Peng received feedback, his mouth slightly opening, his face showing several degrees of surprise.
This thing actually wants his Innate Yin-Yang Qi!
How is he supposed to give it?
Innate Yin-Yang Qi was originally his congenital essence, though later he used it all to make the Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle.
Leaving other things aside, using Innate Yin-Yang Qi to pay for a meal—this is too extravagant!
The Golden-Winged Great Peng complained inwardly.
But seeing Chen Nuo's usual calm expression, the Golden-Winged Great Peng dared not retort.
After all, this is a great power—if he offends him, his little life could be over.
Since he's already said he wants to buy it, he can only grit his teeth and bear it.
"How so? What do you want?" the Peng Demon King asked curiously from the side.
The Golden-Winged Great Peng didn't reply, but inexplicably said: "Let me give it a try!"
Afterwards, he took out his trump card treasure, the Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle.
The bottle is extremely tall, the mouth narrow and elongated, carved with ancient patterns on it, qi flowing within, profoundly mysterious.
He pulled the stopper, the Golden-Winged Great Peng raised the Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle high, the mouth aimed at the crystal ball, and lightly tapped it.
Inside this bottle he had filled with Innate Yin-Yang Qi; he wanted to test whether this would cause some Innate Yin-Yang Qi to overflow.
Because right now he fundamentally has no way to generate this himself.
This Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle, he infused it with all his congenital yin-yang origin from his birth; as long as the treasure isn't broken, the Innate Yin-Yang Qi can still regenerate.
【Ding! Payment successful! Obtained one thread of Innate Yin-Yang Qi—convert to corresponding merit?】
The system's prompt sounded timely.
Chen Nuo raised his eyebrows, his heart filled with several degrees of curiosity—unexpected, this thing could still be used this way?
Impressive!
Chen Nuo knew the Golden-Winged Great Peng's origins clearly: during the Dragon-Han Great Calamity, he was the Phoenix Clan's patriarch, son of Yuan Feng.
The Great Peacock Wisdom King, the twin brother of Buddha Mother Kong Xuan.
His elder brother Kong Xuan was born with the Five-Colored Divine Light divine ability, famed for being able to scour anything; in the Investiture of the Gods battle, he became famous, even causing the Holy Person Zhunti to be staggered by this ability.
He can be called the peak of the Prepared Saint realm.
But the younger brother Golden-Winged Great Peng's talent actually surpasses his brother's—only because Kong Xuan gained spiritual awareness earlier, various essential qi, most of which were seized and absorbed by Kong Xuan,
refined into awakened innate ability, and he achieved form and departed early.
This led to, when Golden-Winged Great Peng gained spiritual awareness, resources were fundamentally insufficient—though he had yin-yang origin, it wasn't enough to condense into awakened innate ability before taking form.
Thus, he had no choice but to make this yin-yang origin into a treasure.
But due to his clumsy method, the treasure's quality wasn't great either.
As a result, during the Journey to the West, the bottle was directly pierced by Sun Wukong, and the origin of Innate Yin-Yang Qi was thus scrapped.
Innate Yin-Yang Qi is the origin of nurturing all things, and the two characters "innate" alone show its preciousness.
If Golden-Winged Great Peng could truly condense this Innate Yin-Yang Qi into awakened innate ability, it would absolutely far surpass Kong Xuan's Five-Colored Divine Light.
"Golden Peng, I didn't know—when did you get this bottle?"
"Still quite handsome." The Peng Demon King beside him was very curious, reaching out: "Let me take a look!"
Seeing the Peng Demon King holding the Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle with both hands.
Golden-Winged Great Peng gave a nasty laugh, after stuffing the stopper back in, he naturally let go.
The Peng Demon King's body suddenly sank, his arms dropping at once.
Reacting instantly, he gritted his teeth, using extraordinary force just barely to hold it up.
"Damn! Golden Peng, what exactly is this? Why is it so heavy?" the Peng Demon King exclaimed in shock—this little bottle isn't even big.
With the strength of a late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal, wanting to lift it actually takes that much effort.
"This is my treasure, the Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle." Golden-Winged Great Peng raised his head slightly, face full of pride.
"Inside it grows Innate Yin-Yang Qi—just grab a person and throw them in, and before long they'll turn into pus water!"
Golden-Winged Great Peng spoke with increasing enthusiasm, going over its appearance, shape, and function again.
Clearly, regarding this Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle, he is very satisfied.
Is the talent of his Golden-Winged Dapeng in weapon refining not astonishingly good?
After slowly placing this extremely heavy Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle on the ground and listening to the explanation once, the Peng Demon King pondered for a moment, then opened his mouth and said: "You mean, one can only first capture a person, then put them inside?"
"Can this treasure not actively capture people?" the Peng Demon King said with some doubt.
The Golden-Winged Dapeng nodded without hesitation: "Yeah! How about it? Isn't this impressive of me?"
The Golden-Winged Dapeng was proudly pleased, this being his trump card; if it weren't for today's need to pay and thus expose it, such a hidden thing, he wouldn't bother mentioning it!
"You can already capture people, so what do you need this bottle for?" the Peng Demon King noticed the flaw, utterly speechless—this is fundamentally putting the cart before the horse.
Eh...
The Golden-Winged Dapeng thought carefully, his face somewhat embarrassed, as if... it really was that way.
He hurriedly took back the Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle, lest he lose face again.
"This is only part of me, a part of my trump card; my true strength hasn't even been revealed yet!" the Golden-Winged Dapeng uttered a face-saving remark.
Looking at Chen Nuo, he felt somewhat amused.
Having watched Journey to the West from beginning to end, he felt this Innate Yin-Yang Qi Bottle could be considered the most foolish magic treasure, wasting heavenly resources to this extent.
"Alright." Chen Nuo spoke up to interrupt the two demons, then turned to the Peng Demon King and said again: "It's your turn, you little brat—why haven't you paid yet?"
"Got it, boss!" the Peng Demon King replied with a cheerful laugh, without hesitation transferring one-quarter of his magic power into the crystal ball.
Hot pot only requires preparing the ingredients, needing no time-consuming effort, while roasted lamb leg, being a popular dish, the back kitchen often prepares it in advance.
So, it didn't take much time before Chen Nuo had already finished.
