Elixir cuisine...
The head elder of the serpent-men tribe took a deep look at Bu Fang. However, he suppressed the excitement in his heart and did not rush over to ask anything.
Bu Fang did not notice the expression on the head elder's face either. As he looked at the crowd of serpent-men who were intoxicated by his delicious dishes, the corners of his mouth curled up. Being able to intoxicate everyone with a dish cooked by a chef was the greatest affirmation of a chef. Seeing the smiles on the faces of the people who tasted the delicacies, the chef would also feel joy in his heart.
A single grilled fish was not much. After everyone picked up a few chopsticks, they quickly finished it. There was no other way. After all, there were so many people present and there was only one grilled fish.
Everyone was looking at the spirit herb leaves that only had fish bones left. They really wanted to eat another one, but it was a pity that Bu Fang only cooked one serving of grilled fish.
The little serpent-woman licked her lips and narrowed her eyes. Even though she did not eat much fish, she was very satisfied. The spirit energy contained in the fish was more than enough for her to digest.
After Bu Fang showed off his skills, no one doubted his culinary skills anymore. To be able to cook such a delicious grilled fish, Bu Fang's culinary skills had already amazed them. Even elder sister Mu was nodding her head. The more she ate, the more she understood the skill contained within the grilled fish.
True energy cooking … Heavens! The young man in front of them had actually mastered the skill of true energy cooking. By using true energy on the food, he catalyzed the deliciousness of the food and made it even more fragrant. Moreover, he was able to retain the spirit energy within the dish. It was simply unbelievable.
"Alright … After we've eaten and drunk our fill, everyone should focus. There are still a bunch of spirit beasts eyeing us covetously outside. We can't let our guard down." When the head elder of the serpent-men tribe saw that everyone was still intoxicated by the delicacy, he could not help but let out a dry cough to bring everyone back to their senses.
Outside the tribe, the gigantic figure that blotted out the sun was quietly coiled up. On top of the giant serpent's head was a dazzling blood crown. As it flicked its long and narrow tongue in and out, it could not help but let out a horrifying hissing sound.
The low roars of the beasts continued to resound, lingering above the vast Illusory Spirit Swamp.
The First Elder's words caused everyone to awaken from their delicacy. As they stared at the gigantic Blood Crown Black Swamp Boa, their expressions involuntarily turned solemn.
However, most of the serpent-men were not too worried. The fact that the serpent-men tribe was able to survive in a harsh place like the Illusory Spirit Swamp for so long naturally meant that they could not rely solely on a seventh grade Battle-Saint. Below the serpent-men tribe, the entire swamp had been modified by the experts of the serpent-men tribe. Gigantic protective magic arrays were engraved on the swamp and every serpent-men tribe was protected by such magic arrays.
A seventh grade Battle-Saint could only ensure that they would not be too passive in the face of an attack from a powerful enemy. However, this protective array was their true safeguard.
Because this formation was passed down by the Serpentine Sovereign, it had powerful protective abilities. A mere seventh-tier spirit beast would not be able to destroy this formation.
"Head Elder, even if we have the protection of the formation, the herb garden is not within the range of protection … The aura of this beast is getting stronger and stronger. It seems like it is about to undergo its next molting. It won't be easy to deal with." The Serpent-Man Battle-Saint glanced at the Black Swamp Boa and felt that it was extremely troublesome to deal with.
Sometimes, spirit beasts were more difficult to deal with than humans. This was because spirit beasts had thick skin and powerful combat prowess … Many human experts were unwilling to encounter spirit beasts of the same level.
"The Ice Soul Monarch Lotus must be protected … We really need the matured lotus seeds of the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus. We must not allow this beast to waste this spirit herb!" the First Elder solemnly said with an extremely solemn expression.
The Serpent-Man Battle-Saint also lightly sighed as a hint of determination flashed across his eyes. He was well aware of the importance of the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus to their serpent-men tribe.
Time flowed by minute by minute. The atmosphere within the Snake-People Tribe, which was originally relaxed, once again became tense. Everyone could feel the solemn atmosphere that was spreading in the air.
The fragrance emitted by the light blue Ice Soul Monarch Lotus bud was becoming more and more intense. As the fragrance wafted through the air, it lingered in the air, making everyone feel refreshed and their eyes glowed brightly.
"It seems like … the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus is about to mature!" the First Elder said.
Wu Yunbai also nodded her head and signaled the Battle-Saint behind her to prepare for battle.
With two Battle-Saints guarding the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus, they should still have a chance to protect it … The problem was the large group of spirit beasts surrounding it. Even though the tribe was protected by a formation, activating it would consume a lot of crystals … Wu Yunbai was not sure how many crystals the serpent-men tribe had in reserve.
If they did not have enough crystals, the formation would fail and they would have to face an endless horde of disgusting spirit beasts …
Bu Fang quietly stood at the side. His eyebrows were slightly furrowed as he looked at the gigantic Blood Crown Black Swamp Boa. No one knew what he was thinking.
He stared at the blood crown of the Blood Crown Black Swamp Boa for a long time and could not help but smack his lips. He seemed to have some thoughts about that gigantic blood crown.
"This Blood Crown … seems to be of good quality. It might be a good ingredient, but it will be a little difficult to get my hands on it," Bu Fang muttered to himself with a snort.
Elder sister Mu was standing beside Bu Fang. When she heard Bu Fang's muttering, she did not know whether to laugh or cry. This young man was indeed a chef. Even looking at the blood crown would make him think of ingredients.
All of the essence of the Blood Crown Black Swamp Boa was gathered on its blood crown. Without a doubt, that blood crown was an extremely nourishing ingredient and was definitely precious. However, the Blood Crown Black Swamp Boa was about to shed its skin and advance to the eighth grade. How could it be used as an ingredient so easily...
Bu Fang naturally did not know what elder sister Mu was thinking. He was only staring at the Blood Crown Black Swamp Boa.
The aroma was getting stronger and stronger. The aroma of this spirit herb seemed to possess some sort of magical power. It would cause the true energy within one's body to involuntarily boil and a faint icy-cold feeling would envelop one's entire body.
"The Ice Soul Monarch Lotus is no ordinary spirit herb. If this spirit herb is handled properly, it can greatly increase one's cultivation level and speed up the circulation of true energy … This Black Swamp Boa is also guarding the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus because it needs this spirit herb to advance." Elder sister Mu seemed to have noticed that Bu Fang was puzzled and enthusiastically explained.
"This beast won't be able to take away our Ice Soul Monarch Lotus! With the elders around, this beast won't be able to show off its might! If Yu Fu's father wasn't seriously injured, this beast … Humph! "Ah Ni coldly snorted as he clenched his fists. He was extremely displeased with the Black Swamp Boa.
Yu Fu lightly sighed. She was the one who needed the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus the most. The chief elder wanted to guard the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus for the sake of her father, the chieftain of the serpent-men tribe and a severely injured seventh grade Battle-Saint.
She did not expect that the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus would attract so many people and spirit beasts when it matured. That Wu Yunbai seemed to be from the White Cloud Villa, and that mysterious chef … She had no idea where he came from. He was definitely after the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus as well.
However … she could not allow the Ice Soul Monarch Lotus to fall into the hands of others. She wanted to use the Monarch Lotus to save her father, which was the goal of all the serpent-men.
