Chapter 880: Identifying Ingredients

"Who is that person? So strong!"

"I remember someone saying just now that he is the successor of the Immortal Chef?"

"Yes, the Immortal Chef successor, Lu Lu Yunyang!"

"I remember now. Lu Lu Yunyang was standing with Ma Bin just now. At first, Ma Bin wasn't too friendly to him, but later, as if he knew Lu Lu Yunyang's identity, Ma Bin was quite polite to him!" A member of the audience suddenly remembered what happened before the competition.

Ma Bin, in the audience, felt his eyes twitch. What do you mean I wasn't too friendly to him at first? Don't talk nonsense; I have heartfelt admiration for Fellow Daoist Lu Yang!

Ma Bin narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the slender figure below, and muttered to himself: "So he really is the successor of the Immortal Chef..."

"Fellow Daoist Ma Bin, do you know his identity?" A gourmet eagerly leaned over to ask.

Ma Bin revealed a meaningful smile: "Whether it is or isn't, I cannot say."

Ma Bin's words were ambiguous, as if he held some secret, which instead made everyone believe in Lu Yang's identity.

Helping Lu Yang make a name for himself with all his might—surely Lu Yang would write a sentence or two more about him in the newspaper.

"It seems that little girl was right; he really might be the successor of the Immortal Chef."

"I feel the same way."

Seeing more and more people realize that the Second Master was quite an extraordinary person, Yun Yun Yun Yun Mengmeng felt very proud.

Since the Second Master was working so hard in the competition below, she couldn't just sit idle!

She got up to change locations and continued to promote the Second Master.

"This Lu Lu Yunyang is one of my people. How come I have no impression of his knife skills being so exquisite?" Jin Tan, the leader of the Taotie clan, noticed Lu Yang's actions and was very surprised.

Facing the Kui Ox, which was also at the late Deity Transformation stage, Lu Yang didn't even use his full strength, yet he could easily carve a piece of meat from it without it even noticing.

"If he were willing, all the demonic beasts in this arena would be nothing more than a matter of one slash or one sword strike for him."

Such a person was someone their Taotie clan should cultivate vigorously.

"Never mind, as long as he is one of my people." Jin Tan revealed a smile of a plan succeeding. The spirit chefs he had cultivated performed very prominently in the first round and would soon be able to show their skills in the second and third rounds, helping him obtain the legendary ingredients.

"Old Daoist Mingyuan, so what if you have blocked me for three hundred years? This position of Alliance Leader will eventually be mine!"

The knife-work round ended quickly. Those participating in the competition were all top-notch experts, and those eliminated were spirit chefs who couldn't defeat the demonic beasts.

Liu Xing continued to host the Five-Star Spirit Chef group test. Unlike the first round, this round clearly had more spirit chefs' eyes on Lu Yang, also identifying him as a popular spirit chef to win the championship.

"This round tests your ability to distinguish ingredients."

Liu Xing set out five display cabinets, all covered by red cloth. The red cloth was woven from unknown materials and could isolate spiritual sense probing.

"These five display cabinets contain five different ingredients. You need to identify the names of these ingredients. Only the first person to answer correctly will pass."

"However, if you answer incorrectly, you will be disqualified from the competition. You must think carefully before answering."

In other words, only five people would pass this round!

Realizing this, the whole arena fell into dead silence. The spirit chefs all became nervous and uneasy. Those who originally had some confidence in their knowledge now began to doubt whether they had truly mastered their craft.

Only Lu Yang yawned, not caring about winning or losing, thinking about how to write his article after returning.

It was so troublesome. If he had brought Old Meng along, he could focus on playing and let him worry about this problem.

Before setting off, Lu Yang had sought out Meng Meng Meng Meng Jingzhou. Meng Meng Meng Meng Jingzhou was repeatedly pondering the subtle meanings in the Immortal's Quotations. Seeing Old Meng studying intently, Lu Yang didn't disturb him further.

Lu Yang's relaxed posture was seen by everyone as being full of confidence.

Liu Xing lifted the first red cloth. A leaf lay quietly in the display cabinet, with golden runes flickering on the leaf. It was primitive and ancient—a natural rune.

"Looks familiar," Lu Yang muttered to himself, always feeling like he had seen it somewhere, and quite often at that.

Master Golden Blade shot a beam of spiritual energy into the sky, indicating that he could answer the question.

"It's a leaf from the Great Camellia tree!"

"Answer incorrect."

Soon, the first spirit chef was eliminated, and it was Master Golden Blade, who had performed quite well in the knife-work round.

Seeing this scene, the spirit chefs who were originally eager to try were like being doused with a bucket of cold water, not daring to rush to answer.

However, following Master Golden Blade's elimination, a beam of spiritual energy light shot into the sky.

【Immortal Tongue】 Xie Qi.

"A leaf from the Enlightenment Tree, and it was plucked from a five-thousand-year-old Enlightenment Tree."

"Answer correct."

The spirit chefs cast envious glances. As expected of Xie Qi; not only did he see that it was an Enlightenment Tree, but also that it was five thousand years old.

"It's just that our family planted a five-thousand-year-old Enlightenment Tree," Xie Qi said modestly, though whether it was true modesty or showing off was hard to say.

"So it's an Enlightenment Tree." Lu Yang realized. No wonder it looked so familiar; the Senior Sister often used Enlightenment Tree leaves to make tea, but the leaves the Senior Sister used all came from that Enlightenment Tree King that had lived for one hundred thousand years.

It was his first time seeing an Enlightenment Tree leaf of such a young age, so he didn't recognize it immediately.

"Next is the second ingredient."

Liu Xing lifted the second red cloth, revealing a palm-sized, emerald-green vine. The heat emitted by the vine distorted space, which was very frightening.

Behind the vine, a phantom was faintly visible, resembling both a tiger and a dragon.

The spirit chefs frowned, not answering immediately. None of them had ever seen this kind of spiritual plant.

Lu Yang flicked a beam of spiritual energy and smiled: "This is the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal Medicine, but it is not the main body; it is a vine separated from the main body from the ancient era."

He was very familiar with this. The medicine garden of the Profound Heaven Sect had a Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal Medicine born in the ancient era.

On the day of the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal's wedding, the Immortal Xiu had inadvertently interfered, causing Ao Ling and Di Di Jiang Di Di Jiang Di Jiang Jiang Shishi to compete in cooking, having the three Immortals of Ying Ying Ying Tian taste it. Afterward, the three Immortals, unaware of the truth, believed the source of the disaster was the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal and gave the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal a beating. Those few drops of blood shed by the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal in that battle created the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal Medicine of later generations.

"Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal Medicine?" Many spirit chefs looked at each other in dismay. Many of them had never heard of this Immortal Medicine.

【Immortal Tongue】 Xie Qi, 【Undefeated】 An Tong, 【Poison Granny】, and others, although they had heard of the Immortal Medicine, were limited to the name and did not know the origin of the Immortal Medicine.

Lu Yang walked with his hands behind his back, pacing around, and slowly spoke, telling an ancient secret.

"In the past, the ancient Black Hand interfered, leading to the struggle between the Dragon and Phoenix ancestors. The four ancient Immortals discussed the Dao, and the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal fought three with one without falling behind. In that battle, the Great Dao collapsed, the stars were extinguished, and a few drops of Immortal blood containing the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal's power of creation flowed out, tearing through the void and piercing the firmament. A few spiritual plants were fortunate enough to be watered by the Immortal blood, transforming into the Immortal Immortal Qilin Immortal Medicine!"
