Chapter 182

After Ren Ren Qianqian found several large tripods to hold the blood, Li Hao summoned his Long Xiao Sword, and the sword Qi soared into the sky, rushing toward the black bird.

Under the sharp edge of this divine weapon, the Black Bird Demon King's body was cut open.

Li Hao severed its neck, and the precious blood containing vigorous life essence gushed out, but it was covered by Li Hao's object-controlling power and drawn into the tripods.

In this process, he took the opportunity to wring out the water in this precious blood through his object-controlling power, simply refining it, leaving only the thick, fishy, and sticky strange blood.

The huge copper tripods were filled with nine tripods.

Then Li Hao sealed the tops with molten iron and placed them aside for the time being.

Next, Li Hao followed Feng Lao's words and removed the gilded bird feathers on the back of the Black Bird Demon King.

These bird feathers were golden, and although the Demon King was dead, there was still a faint golden flow of light flashing in the feathers.

Li Hao collected all seven gilded bird feathers, then dissected the Demon King's heart.

This heart in the Dao Heart Realm was covered with divine patterns, containing a vast and majestic aura, with patterns naturally formed by the power of heaven and earth on it.

If one could contemplate it, one could also understand the Dao Heart that this Demon King had contemplated.

Li Hao found a huge white jade tray and caught this Dao Heart, which was half a meter in diameter.

The dark golden divine patterns flowing on it still contained surging power, and even if left naturally, it could not rot for a hundred years.

Besides these, the other parts were also extremely precious, but Li Hao intended to take them out and share them with all the martial artists in the city.

The remaining black bird feathers, although they could not be forged into divine weapons, could also be forged into good weapons, enough to be used in the Heavenly Human Realm.

This body of flesh and blood was also extremely precious. Eating it raw would have great medicinal effects, but the demonic Qi contained within was too strong, so it was better to refine it before absorbing it.

After all, there was still some difference between the human body and the demon body.

The little white fox could eat it raw, but it had followed Li Hao since it was young, and its little mouth had long been spoiled, only eating cooked food.

"Feng Lao will take care of setting up the pot and burning the fire."

Li Hao smiled, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to cook this Black Bird Demon King.

Feng Feng Bo Ping also became interested. This kind of thing was shocking, and all the martial artists in the city would have a treat tonight.

Li Hao manipulated the Long Xiao Sword and began to pluck the feathers and remove the meat for this Demon King.

Ren Ren Qianqian helped Li Hao, looking for containers everywhere.

Li Li Hongzhuang heard the news and rushed over. When she saw Li Hao actually intending to cut meat with his sword, and beside him was a setup, a huge pile of firewood, and a huge iron pot found from somewhere, she was stunned.

This was a Demon King in the Dao Heart Realm. The value of its flesh was difficult to estimate, and it was no exaggeration to say it was worth its weight in gold.

Li Hao actually intended to waste it so extravagantly.

"Hao'er, are you really going to make a dish with this Demon King?!"

Li Li Hongzhuang came to Li Hao and said in surprise.

Li Hao turned and looked at her. This little aunt had also rushed to reinforce earlier. Among the figures fighting outside the pass, there was a share of hers, and he smiled at her: "What flavor do you like, spicy or steamed?"

"..."

Li Li Hongzhuang was speechless.

Guarding the border for more than ten years, she actually had a day to eat Demon King meat. This was something she didn't dare to dream of.

Seeing Ren Ren Qianqian struggling to find containers, Li Li Hongzhuang didn't act coy anymore. As a tiger daughter of a general family, her temperament was quite free and easy, and she immediately waved to call the deputy general of the Blood Fiend Army.

Soon, the cooking team that followed the Blood Fiend Army all year round came over.

They brought bowls, chopsticks, containers, and many kinds of seasonings.

Seeing Li Hao dealing with this Demon King's corpse, these soldiers of the cooking team also exclaimed that they had opened their eyes.

They wanted to step forward to help, but were all refused by Li Hao, only letting them help with the work of sorting and classifying ingredients.

In terms of cooking, Li Hao liked to have full control himself.

Unloading the Demon King's thighs and wings one by one, Li Hao chopped them into small pieces.

The Long Xiao Sword, the first of the ten famous swords, acted as a kitchen knife at this moment, and under Li Hao's operation, it was handy, quickly decomposing the Demon King's corpse.

Seeing such high-end ingredients, Li Hao couldn't help but feel a trace of regret. If his bottleneck in the cooking path was broken, cooking a Demon King in the Four Standing Realms, he didn't know how much experience he could gain, at least tens of thousands, right?

Although it was his first time making a large pot of rice, Li Hao didn't act carelessly, but was extremely serious.

Possessing a cooking heart, he strove for every dish to be as exquisite and delicious as a single dish.

Therefore, how to make a large pot of rice well was also a deeper test.

Li Hao was fully devoted to it. The ordinary flames burned by the firewood were difficult to stew the Demon King's flesh until it was soft and rotten, and stir-frying was even harder.

While cooking, Li Hao was also feeling and beating the ingredients to make them loose and easier to cook.

When necessary, he would also use the Zixiao Palm to increase the temperature.

Now, he had stepped into the extreme realm of grandmaster martial arts, and behind many of his original cultivation techniques, there was another cultivation state, which was the Immortal Dao.

Using immortal power to perform, the cultivation technique could erupt with stronger power.

This Upper-Grade Zixiao Palm also became the Immortal Power Zixiao Palm, and the high temperature steamed out could easily melt demons in the Heavenly Human Realm.

Encountering demons in the Three Imperishable Realms could also cause great damage.

Using it in cooking at this moment was like a god's help to Li Hao.

During the cooking process, the residual will in the Demon King's flesh would occasionally reveal itself, and Li Hao used his divine sense to shatter it.

The residual thoughts in the Demon King's pores and orifices were gradually dying out.

In the process of dying out, Li Hao hadn't noticed it initially, but later he suddenly had a special feeling.

The ingredients themselves seemed to have a transcendent taste.

Cooking level six had already brought Li Hao's culinary arts to the peak of the taste buds, the ultimate enjoyment of the tongue.

Even in the best restaurant in the Sacred Capital, Li Hao could put on an apron and become the head chef.

But this was not the limit of culinary arts.

Entering the Spirit.

Li Hao suddenly realized at this moment that entering the spirit was not just cooking the ingredients themselves. It was cooking something else, something beyond what the flesh could feel, and that was the soul of the ingredients themselves!

Li Hao's cooking path had long reached level six, but he had never thought that he would be the first to focus on the cooking path to enter the spirit.

And at this moment, it was just an unintentional act, a cooking session on a whim, but suddenly, it made him seem to touch that unreachable bottleneck.

Li Hao gradually forgot himself.

He no longer wiped out the residual thoughts in the Demon King's flesh, but used his own will to soothe them, making them go from a state of angry screaming to gradually peaceful.

That residual thought still remained in the ingredients themselves.

At this moment, what he was cooking was no longer flesh and blood, but the residual soul of the Black Bird Demon King! The Black Bird Demon King's divine soul had long been wiped out, and this residual soul could be regarded as soul debris, only unconscious emotions and thoughts.

Therefore, most of the residual thoughts were filled with violent and bloodthirsty auras.

But now, under Li Hao's divine sense creation, they gradually softened, hiding in the ingredients themselves.

At the same time, these residual thoughts also became a container, just like the pores in the flesh, capable of absorbing seasonings and soup, bringing enjoyment to the taste buds.

And this residual thought was the same. Li Hao poured the thoughts of gratitude toward the many martial artists into the residual thoughts, letting them absorb it, and then sink into the ingredients.

Unknowingly, panels gradually appeared before Li Hao's eyes.

【Cooking Experience +2712...】

【Cooking Experience +2539...】

【Cooking Experience +2934...】

He had taken that step, the cooking path, entering the spirit.

The bottleneck of the cooking path was also broken, and he could harvest cooking experience points again.

But Li Hao was already fully devoted to cooking and ignored these prompts.

Just like his state of mind when he realized the limit of the grandmaster, not seeking, so he obtained.

The most precious things in the world are often not sought, but obtained naturally.

Just like life, nurtured from the mother's womb, why do you need to open your mouth? Just like the sun shining, the sun and moon alternating, why do you need to pray? Mountains, flowing water, are all the rules of nature. If you seek, it is like rowing against the current, letting the water at the foot of the mountain flow back to the top, which can be done with huge manpower, but it is not long-lasting.

And the ultimate Dao, natural and perfect, is like this.

Li Hao's thoughts were on the painting path entering the spirit, on the fishing path entering the spirit, but he had never pinned his hopes on the cooking path, but the result was unexpectedly successful.

When the sun set, the sunset glow hung in the sky like a girl's blush.

The martial artists in the city received the news and all gathered in the city.

The soaring fragrance had already diffused, covering the entire Cangya City, even the Star Official old man and others who were still studying the trajectory of array carving on the city wall smelled it.

"What is the smell?"

Xia Xia Xianglan was surprised, raised her head, sniffed her fair and tender nose, smelled the fragrance coming from the city, and couldn't help but look up, but it was too far away, and her own realm was too low, so she couldn't see clearly.

"That young master seems to have cooked that Demon King and is treating everyone."

Beside, a senior brother scholar flew out his divine soul and hovered in the air, seeing and hearing the movement in the distance, and a bit of surprise appeared on his somewhat dull face.

"What, stewing a Demon King?"

The others were all stunned, and the Star Official old man also narrowed his eyes slightly, looked up, and muttered: "That young master is truly crazy."

Xia Xia Xianglan thought of the gentle and jade-like youth in the courtyard, and was somewhat stunned. It was hard to associate the other party with such a wild thing as cooking a Demon King.

In the city.

Many tables and chairs were prepared at the scene, and the soldiers of the cooking team helped serve the dishes, and plates of Demon King flesh and blood delicacies were served.

Stir-fried meat slices, steamed fatty liver, stewed meat tendons, etc.

A Demon King was made into more than fifty dishes by Li Hao. Various dishes were not repeated. There were hot dishes, cold dishes, and snacks made by mixing tendons with other ingredients.

A total of more than a hundred tables were made, each with more than fifty dishes.

In the sunset glow, Li Hao wiped the hot sweat from his forehead and sat down at a table with Feng Lao to eat.

There was no speech, no words of gratitude. All emotions were invested in the dining table.

But Li Li Hongzhuang still represented Li Hao, went on stage to say some words of gratitude, and then announced to start.

When the delicacies entered the mouth and the taste bloomed on the tip of the tongue, the thoughts and emotions carried by the residual thoughts of the Demon King in the dishes were also transmitted.

In an instant, everyone understood the youth's enthusiastic gratitude, as if it were a collision of soul and soul, better than words.

Some of the more emotional women even moistened their eye sockets while eating.

Only the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding remained at the table.

"You brat..."

Feng Feng Bo Ping, as usual, picked up some stir-fried meat slices and ate them. Soon, some things seemed to fly out of the spicy meat slices, giving him a feeling that was hard to describe.

It was like a consciousness, directly injected into the bottom of his heart, without the need for verbal communication, but he could taste the intense emotion inside.

This was no longer a simple dish.

Li Hao asked Ren Ren Qianqian to prepare some food boxes and send them to the Si Tian Xue Jian crowd on the city wall.

At this time, he was eating the delicacies he made himself, drinking small wine. Although he couldn't absorb the essence power in the Demon King's flesh and blood like others, he could taste that the taste was indeed not bad.

In his spare time, Li Hao called up the panel and took a look, seeing the cooking path rise from level six to level seven, and couldn't help but show a few smiles.

This feeling was not a surprise, but a smile of understanding as if water had formed a channel.

The entering of the spirit in the cooking path also allowed Li Hao to find ways for the painting path and other paths to enter the spirit.

However, it still needed some attempts; after all, saying it and doing it were two different things.

Regardless, now he could finally continue adding points.
