Blue flames soared and condensed into the shape of a new moon. It was very exquisite.
This was the famous wine of Liuren Divine City, the Moon Containing Wine. Just a small pot cost 20 Shenwu Coins.
Luo Zheng felt that the price was ridiculously high, but the Evil Old Man strongly recommended it and told Luo Zheng, "The most important thing is this pot of wine!"
When the crowd saw Luo Zheng ignite the wine, they were also curious. Most of them focused their attention on Luo Zheng. Even Hulan Zhuo's round eyes were fixed on Luo Zheng, wondering what Luo Zheng was up to.
Then, Luo Zheng's right hand reached for the first dish.
On the dish, snow lotus petals were stacked on top of each other, forming a small arch bridge. It was the famous dish of Hanyue Restaurant, the Snow Lotus Arch.
The snow lotus was harvested from the Saint Lotus Mountain in the Snow Region. It was a natural cold object and was still emitting dense cold air.
In the God Domain, even ordinary God Dwellers could swallow such a cold object. If it were the creatures in the universe below the Life and Death Realm, they wouldn't even be able to come within three feet of the table, let alone swallow it. It was no different from courting death.
When Luo Zheng's chopsticks picked up a snow lotus petal, a layer of frost appeared on the chopsticks.
Then, Luo Zheng placed the snow lotus petal on top of the wine cup and roasted it. The crescent-like flame curled around the snow lotus petal.
When an object of extreme cold came into contact with fire, it would have an extreme reaction. The snow lotus petal melted under the fire and emitted a strange stench.
"It stinks!"
"What is this brat burning?!"
"It stinks unbearably! Who is going to stop this brat … "
The stench permeated the air and rushed into the noses of others. Immediately, many people covered their noses and frowned, looking at Luo Zheng with disgust.
Luo Zheng turned a deaf ear to those voices. He was focused on listening to the Evil Old Man's instructions.
"The Moon Containing Wine is brewed from the 'Lunar Sea Jade Pillar'. The Sea Marrow smells very fragrant, but after burning, the stench is unbearable. After fusing with the Snow Lotus, the stench will be even worse …" Then, mix the Earth Crystal Tendons in the Crossing Fire Mandarin Duck Terrace, and then refine it with True Fire. Crush the Charming Eye Branch into powder and sprinkle it on … "
Luo Zheng's reaction was very quick. He did whatever the Evil Old Man said.
Amidst this foul stench, the onlookers were dumbfounded. How was this kid eating? He was clearly refining a golden pill!
Luo Zheng's hands didn't stop moving. He had the same thought as the others. This seemed to be alchemy. It was just that one alchemy furnace was missing.
He also felt rather depressed in his heart. Why did it take so much effort to eat!
Following the Evil Old Man's instructions, Luo Zheng reached out and pushed gently, once again congealing the True Fire.
After a short while, a crisp "ding" sound rang out, and a golden core really did fall out from the burning ingredients … And the moment this golden core appeared, a strange fragrance once again filled the air, and it quickly spread throughout the entire Boundless Moon Inn!
"He's really concocting pills …"
"It smells so good!"
"I've never smelled this kind of pill fragrance before … It doesn't smell like medicine at all. Instead, it smells like vegetables …"
Luo Zheng stared at this golden core with a surprised expression. He then said to the Evil Old Man, "So you want me to refine this golden core …"
"What a joke! Is it so easy to refine a golden core? This is just a food pill. It can only satisfy one's appetite, "the Evil Old Man said with a proud smile.
The fragrance of this food pill continued to spread, and it became stronger and stronger. The smell seemed to seep into one's soul, causing many cultivators present to gulp. They couldn't help but have a strong appetite.
Luo Zheng was no exception. He couldn't help but grab the food pill and put it into his mouth.
The extremely complex taste spread rapidly on the tip of Luo Zheng's tongue, causing Luo Zheng's soul to tremble. He couldn't describe the taste at all. He could only lower his head and taste it carefully. The moment he tasted it, he would remember the taste for the rest of his life. It would be unforgettable.
He finally understood why the Evil Old Man kept telling him to come to the Hanyue Inn after he entered Six Ren Divine City.
It turned out that the True Gods in the divine territory had endless lifespans. They had a lot of time to study all kinds of things. They could study the Divine Way to the extreme, and they could also study food to the extreme. This gave Luo Zheng a new understanding of the divine territory's cultural heritage.
On the top floor of the Hanyue Inn, Han Wenshan and Han Jiaming looked down at Luo Zheng with strange expressions.
"This person's bone age is less than 100 years old, but he's experienced and knowledgeable. He can even refine the Great Vegetarian Pill!" Han Wenshan said in surprise.
"I don't know which senior or expert he got the secret recipe from. It's interesting. Some strange people appeared in my Han Family's examination this year," Han Jiaming said with a smile.
The two brothers had represented the Han Family in managing the Hanyue Inn for three Divine Eras. They had heard of the Great Vegetarian Pill before, but they had never seen it with their own eyes. Now that they saw it in the hands of a cultivator who had proven himself to be a god, they were naturally confused.
"Should we bring this fellow up here for questioning?" Han Wenshan asked.
"No, this person will definitely take part in the Han Family's examination. We'll know whether he's a dragon or a phoenix by then." Han Jiaming shook his head.
Although the Great Vegetarian Pill was miraculous, it could only satisfy one's desire for good food. In some people's eyes, it was still not the right way to go …
…
…
Everyone in the Hanyue Inn focused their attention on Luo Zheng. They had all sorts of guesses about Luo Zheng's identity.
Meanwhile, Hulan Zhuo stood alone in the middle of the courtyard …
Hulan Zhuo had stood out in such a high-profile manner to establish his authority.
The Heaven-containing Prefecture's examination was not easy. This was because the Heaven-containing Prefecture did not only test one's strength, but also many other aspects. There were many variables, and it was not certain that one could pass just because they were strong.
After Hulan Zhuo had intimidated these cultivators, everyone was afraid of him during the examination. Naturally, they did not dare to act recklessly.
However, he had just won a round, and everyone had suddenly shifted their focus to the delicacies of the Hanyue Inn. Wasn't this somewhat strange?
Feeling depressed, Hulan Zhuo suddenly pointed at Luo Zheng and shouted, "Hey! You! "
Luo Zheng was still savoring the aftertaste of the Great Vegetarian Pill. When he saw Hulan Zhuo pointing at him and shouting at him, he frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
"How about I challenge you?" Hulan Zhuo raised the corner of his mouth and said, "If you win, these are all yours!" As he spoke, he pointed at the Shenwu Coins at his feet.
Luo Zheng followed Hulan Zhuo's gaze and looked at him. He smiled faintly and then shook his head.
"What do you mean? You don't dare? " Hulan Zhuo continued to provoke him. He was a little unhappy. If Luo Zheng did not agree to the challenge, there was nothing he could do to Luo Zheng. Even though he was a member of the Hulan Family, he could not casually make a move in Liuren Divine City. The consequences of violating the rules of the Thousand Commandments Slate were severe.
Luo Zheng replied, "It's not that I don't dare. It's just that it's not enough."
"You mean the Shenwu Coins are not enough?" Hulan Zhuo's eyes lit up slightly.
Luo Zheng nodded and did not say anything.
Unexpectedly, Hulan Zhuo waved his hand and scattered another handful of Shenwu Coins on the ground. There were another 200 to 300 Shenwu Coins in this handful.
"The Hulan Family is really rich! Hulan Zhuo is just a Proving God expert, yet he has so many Shenwu Coins with him! "
"This world is so unfair. Many True Gods can't earn so much even if they work hard for a few Divine Epochs …"
"I think that brat is just making excuses. No matter how many Shenwu Coins Hulan Zhuo has, would he dare to accept the challenge?"
In the eyes of the crowd, Luo Zheng was no match for Hulan Zhuo.
However, Luo Zheng did not want to lose face when Hulan Zhuo challenged him. Therefore, he said that Hulan Zhuo did not have enough Shenwu Coins.
Now that Hulan Zhuo had scattered more Shenwu Coins, there were as many as 600 to 700 Shenwu Coins in the courtyard!
Everyone's gaze gathered on Luo Zheng again, waiting for his reaction.
However, Luo Zheng still shook his head and said, "Not enough."
Huolan Zhuo was not annoyed at all. He patted his waist, and with a flash of golden light, a dazzling golden bracelet appeared in his hand. As he shook the golden bracelet continuously, Shenwu coins fell from it again and again.
Another 300 Shenwu Coins!
In just a short while, there were as many as 1,000 Shenwu Coins in the courtyard.
Everyone's gaze was once again drawn back to the Shenwu Coins!
1,000 Shenwu Coins …
Many Proving God experts were tempted.
Many intermediate True Gods were probably only worth this much.
Some powerful family elites also had the urge to give it a try. However, Hulan Zhuo was challenging Luo Zheng, not them.
"It's still not enough." Luo Zheng continued to shake his head. At the same time, he poured himself a cup of wine.
This time, Hulan Zhuo was finally annoyed. He stared at Luo Zheng and asked coldly, "How much is enough?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Zheng finally smiled. This was what he had been waiting for.
He knew that there were not only fights in the Hanyue Building but also gambling fights.
However, he also understood that he only had one chance to fight. Once he won, no idiot would be foolish enough to give him Shenwu Coins for free.
Seizing this opportunity to earn as many Shenwu Coins as possible was Luo Zheng's real goal.
Previously, Luo Zheng was too lazy to challenge Hulan Zhuo because he felt that he did not have enough Shenwu Coins. 200 Shenwu Coins were not enough. One thousand Shenwu Coins were still not enough. He needed to wait for a suitable opportunity.
He did not expect this brat from the Hulan Family to be so hot-tempered that this opportunity presented itself in advance.
"This much." Luo Zheng extended five fingers and said nonchalantly.
"5,000 Shenwu Coins?" Hulan Zhuo frowned.
Luo Zheng's lips curled up slightly. "Yes, this is the amount!"
"5,000 …"
"That brat is really demanding an exorbitant price!"
"This is not an exorbitant price. He purposely said such a large number to put Hulan Zhuo in a difficult position. I'm afraid that Hulan Zhuo will have no choice but to give up challenging Luo Zheng."
"It's a pity that he has underestimated the financial resources of the Hulan Family. Although 5,000 Shenwu Coins is a huge sum, it is not a big problem for the Hulan Family …"
As expected, Hulan Zhuo pondered for a while and smiled coldly at Luo Zheng. "5,000 Shenwu Coins it is!"
