Chapter 32: Fanboys of food are the scariest! (1)
What actually happened was that the thoughts of Sying, his little white dog, became chaotic from moment to moment, without the slightest warning his connection became noisy and difficult to maintain that connection, forcing Zemin Yan to forcefully block the soul connection.
"FOOD! FOOD!" These were the words that were shouted directly into Zemin Yan's head, and it seemed like a primordial beast had woken up inside the little dog, one that could devour everything and lead the world into the endless void! This feeling was so horrible that he was forced to break the communication of souls!
Zemin Yan was now even more suspicious of Sying's origins, surely this white dog was not a normal holy beast, there was something very sinister at the same time that he had concerns about it, he was also relieved that he is the partner from Sying and not his friend, Yi Yuga. If this were his best friend, he would be deceived and devoured alive by this primordial beast within Sying.
Soon everyone came out of their own thoughts when the door opened and a waiter with several attendants appeared with several hot dishes and platters of cold dishes, the smell of meat and delicious food clouded the minds of these young growers. Even though Zemin Yan couldn't control a bit of saliva from dripping down his small lips, people like Yi Yuga and Quian Dalai were embarrassingly drooling over their clothes while their eyes sparkled like stars staring at the food.
The most educated were Chu Yue and Shou Zuo, the first was a little lady, from an early age trained in etiquette, even at the age of 10, she could at least not drool over the delicious food. Already Shou Zuo remained with his flirtatious aura and showed no interest in such meals, it seems he has eaten even higher quality things than these delicious meals of this restaurant!
The servers came in one by one placing the food on the table, sorting the bowls, the small sauce bowls, and the chopsticks on the table, all were done with great order and agility, surprisingly those servers who were about 30 years old on the table, indeed they were cultivators of the Foundation kingdom!
Ironically, each of these servers could kill every single person sitting at this table! Of course, theoretically! However, that thought cleared Zemin Yan's mind quickly.
Then Zemin Yan went on to analyze each movement of these servers, as he has the sacred energy in his body, he could vaguely feel the elements that the cultivators used most in their martial cultivation. He could feel that the predominant elements in these servers and even the waiter were the fire element, the water element, and the wood element!
Interestingly, it depended a lot on the kind of preparation they were carrying on the plates, for example, the hot plates had a fire attendant around their bodies, the attendants who carried the cold plates had the water element which allowed To maintain a certain freshness in these foods, the attendants of the wood element were bringing dishes containing more herbs and spices, which did not allow the powers of each ingredient to dissipate.
Soon everything was on the table, there was some kind of weird boar with an even weirder apple in its dead mouth, there was the red rice that Zemin Yan saw outside the restaurant, there were salads with apparently common ingredients, but they had color, unlike the original vegetables, there were sauces that looked as if they were shining or that a cold air was coming out…. Lots of foods he had never heard of!
"Would the gongzis want me to introduce the dishes?" Asked the waiter after all the attendants had left.
"Yes please" Shou Zuo's voice sounded in the quiet environment, the others could only swallow their eager saliva to eat.
Wen Jie wished Shou Zuo had said nothing, he was hungry, he never thought he would feel that kind of hunger that looked like his blood was devouring his body inside, very scary! But of course, he is more afraid of being punished by Shou Zuo, so he kept silent, as his punishments definitely crushed his pride as a man! Cofh… Cofh… And he as a fool didn't think that was bad!
"First let me introduce you a little about spiritual food…" The waiter began to speak in a formal and respectful voice.
Spiritual food is very different from normal food, the main reason being the amount that a particular ingredient has absorbed from the energy of heaven and earth, just as there are fruits and herbs that absorb a specific element, such as Yang fruit, which absorbs fire element, or chaos fruit, that absorbs the energy of space chaos. There are ingredients whether created by heaven or created by man that absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, these are known as spiritual foods.
By absorbing this spiritual energy, the composition and appearance change, such as the sliced carrot that has a bright yellow rather than orange tint, acquiring characteristic of the sub-element of the earth, which is the gold variation, and other features such as helping to cleanse the Eye of Nirvana Palace Preparing the Cultivator for when the time comes to open Nirvana Palace.
There are also the ingredients that are most direct and most loved by growers, such as red rice, which Zemin Yan saw outside on the shopping street, this grain is called Blood Rice, it is grown using crossbow blood magic that would be equivalent to the foundation level, the greater the aura of Blood Rice the greater the kingdom the magic beast had when cultivated.
Yes, this is a rather horrible source, of course, there are other ways to plant Blood Rice, such as getting a Qi Gathering pill to dissolve in the water, letting the rice seedling soak up the seedling. However, variations of this grain arise, thus giving rise to Golden Rice and White Jasmine Rice, which has a lavender tone and is fragrant.
But this is a more expensive method, it takes much longer for growth, and you risk the seedling growing up gaining spirituality and running away in the middle of the night! Make no mistake, Qi refining pills are one of the few that change in value since from the Qi Refining Kingdom to the last level of the Deity Kingdom the body needs to be refined and strengthened by spiritual Qi. Qi is that which feeds the mortal body, only when a cultivator is supposed to go beyond the supposed realm of a deity is free from no longer feeding. After the kingdom of deity is the emperor's stage of cultivation… In other words, a cultivator has to become a legend or will have to consume Qi refining pills for the rest of his life.
Clearly, Qi refining pills will level up or even change names, but for the same purpose, the author will talk more in the future.
"And the pearly rice, one that is around grain and has a soft luster, as if always fresh, is also a variation of the blood rice?" Asked Zemin Yan curious, in his ring, there are many sacks of pearly rice, but there was no blood rice and no golden rice, there were a few bags of Jasmin White Rice, but it was very little compared to that pearled rice.
"The gongzi must be playing with this humble server! How Pearly Rice can be a variation on poor blooded rice! "The waiter said very excitedly and his eyes sparkled with fanaticism as if he were some kind of fangirl or fanboy and his idol is passing before his eyes.
That was very scary!
