Chapter 15: The Maid and the Chainsword

Chapter 15: The Maid and the Chainsword
"Sequence 4 of the Golden Immortal Path [Sword Immortal]... The Earth Mother Sect has three paths to becoming a god: Yin Tianzi, Corpse God, and Lingying Yuanjun... Sequence 8 is the Corpse Collector... The Red God Sect is proficient in war... Sequence 2 [Mars Soldier Immortal]..."

Every time the evil cultivators diners uttered a word, the extraordinary knowledge contained in it would be captured by Li Yu.

At this time, the third bubble of truth on his eye mask was charging at an extremely fast speed.

If it weren't for the extreme pain coming from his body, Li Yu would have liked to smile happily.

His plan was accomplished smoothly.

Of course, Li Yu also knew that these might not be considered true "secrets", but more like common sense in the supernatural world, and Jiao Qing and Sun Sanniang might also know a lot about them.

It’s a pity that the original body was kept in captivity instead of being raised like a biological son.

After Li Yu was possessed and reborn, he still had to rely on his own planning to complete this part.

Soon, he knew some basic knowledge of the five major orthodox sects.

The fifth largest religious sect should have been Buddhism, but this group of cowardly evil practitioners were afraid of the tyranny of "Zhu Mei, the abbot of the Pig Temple", so they dared not say much and could only talk a few more words about the Tiangong Sect.

Combined with the few words Li Yu had heard from the salesman Meng Shenji, this common sense was also added:
"When the three kingdoms of Qian, Jing and Li were first established, a powerful god named Fuxi descended from outside the domain and was quickly accepted by the five great gods. Thus, the sixth great god sect, Tiangong Sect, appeared in the world."

"The sect seems to have mastered a path to the God of Craftsmanship. Sequence eight is called [Carpenter], and sequence seven is [Puppet Maker]."

"Fuxi?"

"Are you from the same hometown?"

Li Yu was in great pain at this time, but he was very excited in his heart.

In this thrilling and strange world, I suddenly heard the familiar name of the god from my previous life, and the feeling of confusion that had always existed in my heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

If he was not in Wanfu City with nowhere to escape, he would have wanted to join the Tiangong Sect right now.

But he was really reborn in this shitty place, and now he has to be cautious, take every step carefully, and fight for his life.

After the evil cultivators finished talking about these basic common sense, they soon started to complain about how difficult it was to be promoted to the official sequence, how terrifying cultivation was, and how they had no control over themselves.

It was still Hong Sanquan who spoke first, and he also used Li Yu as an example.

"Alas, in fact, we are just like the Jiao family boy, we are all pitiful people."

"It is true that he will not live long. If we cannot be promoted to the official sequence, we can only live a few more years at most. Sooner or later, we will be corroded and killed by the evil energy in our bodies."

“Although I, Old Hong, have gathered the secret medicine of the Blood Soldier, I still dare not respond to the call of the great Blood God, lest my soul never return.”

It was rare that after saying this, there was no criticism.

Instead, it was recognized and many people followed suit.

He frequently glanced at the only top eight player in the field, the evil monk Zhu Mei.

But no one dared to ask for help.

Ask people for free, they don't dare.

If they really wanted to pay a reward to get the corresponding secrets, they would not choose Zhu Mei, but the organizations and seniors in their respective fields.

Seeing this scene, Li Yu couldn't help but have an idea and adjusted the cooking order.

Then, he suddenly shouted:

"Red beans, serve!"

"Senior Zhu's table, eight-treasure rice, strange dragon soup, and glazed meat."

After a long wait, the banquet finally began.

But right from the start, all that was served was spiritual food prepared by the Pig Man Temple master.

Despite this, no one was dissatisfied.

Giving priority to the strongest is one of the iron rules in the city, and no one has any objection to it.

Moreover, soon everyone benefited from it.

The abbot of the Zhulao Temple, who had originally closed his eyes to rest, suddenly opened his eyes after hearing the sound and smelling the fragrance.

He flashed and took the initiative to take the dishes, and like a ghost took the bronze tripod from Hongdou's hand.

The moment the lid of the tripod was opened, dazzling rainbow light poured out, almost illuminating the entire yard.

Inside, there are grains of rice with eight different colors, like "gems".

"Good, good, good...Based on the appearance alone, Eight Treasure Rice Pudding lives up to its reputation."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Mei ignored the streams of hot steam rising with the light.

The pig opened its mouth as wide as possible, lifted the tripod with both hands, and poured the rice into the pot.

Like a waterfall of gems, in the blink of an eye, a serving of eight-treasure rice was poured so roughly into Zhu Mei's stomach.

Whoever saw this scene?
I won’t complain in my heart: This is how pigs eat, what a waste of food.

Of course, no one would be stupid enough to say it out loud.

After eating the eight-treasure rice, Zhu Mei took over a big pot handed over by Hongdou. It was full of broth. As the aroma rolled around, an illusion of a strange dragon wailing and roaring appeared, but it was immediately shattered by a pig's hand as big as a palm fan.

It was another scene of holding the pot with both hands and pouring food into the stomach.

When the last drop of broth entered his mouth, Zhu Mei's entire body was red and sweaty, like a roasted human-shaped pig.

"Hahaha... cool!"

"Eight Treasure Rice Pudding and Strange Dragon Soup. These two dishes are available at the Nagaru Luo Restaurant. You can also go to the third floor."

"Let me, the old pig, have another taste of this glazed meat."

Amidst the laughter, Zhu Mei suddenly regained his host's demeanor. He sat down quite elegantly, picked up a pair of chopsticks, and began to taste the crystal-like cubes of meat on the table piece by piece.

The main ingredient of this spiritual food is the snow corpse pig, a specialty of the Wangui Tundra, which feeds on frozen corpses.

To some extent, he is of the same type as Zhu Mei, but what he eats is particularly delicious, and the abnormality of his body is gradually offset by the strange snow energy in the glass flesh.

At this time, he was in a very good mood.

The next moment, I couldn't tell whether he wanted to give advice to the neighbors out of compassion or he simply wanted to ridicule them.

He actually followed the evil cultivators' wishes and sneered:

"Everyone knows that the best way to advance is to gather the secret medicine formula, take it on the spot and go directly to the ceremony. This is the only way to digest the secret medicine to the greatest extent and master the most of yourself."

"The reason you don't dare is, first, you're afraid of the pain of the ritual, and second, you're worried about failure and nothing will happen."

“So they all thought about taking the secret medicine first, gaining supernatural powers, and then slowly preparing to go through the ceremony… Little did they know that such behavior was equivalent to squandering themselves in advance. When the ceremony really came, they would have to pay it back.”

“Your souls have been corroded by evil energy and are in a state of disrepair. Even if you manage to pass the ceremony, you will not be able to advance to Sequence Seven in the future. Your temperament will also change drastically, and you will become insane.”

Zhu Mei uttered these words.

Every evil cultivator and guest in the room changed their expressions.

Especially those who were closest to the official sequence, such as Cui Yuan and Hong Sanquan, had the ugliest expressions.

Zhu Mei paused, chewed a piece of glass meat slowly, and continued:
"Don't be sad, all of you casual cultivators have come this far."

"If someone like me, Old Pig, had found an organization to back me up early, I could have naturally reached Sequence Eight and prepared for Sequence Seven early on."

"Neighbors, listen to my advice. If you want to be promoted smoothly, you should find a backer. Whether it is to make up for the defects or pay the price, it is not a problem. You just have to sacrifice your life and property. Losing freedom in exchange for power is reasonable."

"Or, choose another path."

"What way?"

Everyone looked at Zhu Mei with hopeful eyes.

As he said, everyone is a self-employed cultivator, and they all actually know the importance of having a backer.

Everyone has their own reasons for not joining various organizations or forces.

Of course I was excited to hear that there was still a way.

Zhu Mei was probably really enjoying the meal, so he didn't keep anyone in suspense and said directly:
"Pious!"

"Isn't your greatest support the gods you follow?"

"Dedicate everything to God directly, pray day and night, and as long as you are pious enough and have a little better luck, you will receive spiritual guidance from the gods."

"Those with poor aptitude, such as the cannibal couple Jiao Qing and Sun Sanniang, obtained the most inferior [Secret Method of Forbidden Eggs], and offered sacrifices in exchange for a forbidden egg, hoping to cultivate the Son of the Forbidden God, and then share the food to gain the power of the vegetable man..."

"Some people have succeeded before, but unfortunately more than 90% of them ended in failure. Instead, they raised many true Sons of the Forbidden God for the Forbidden God Cult."

"Once that thing is officially born, it will attract high-sequence strongmen from the Forbidden God Sect. They will be captured and fed with various evil creatures. A large number of forbidden magic will be implanted in them, and they will be controlled and driven like man-eating hounds. Tsk tsk, each one is very ferocious."

At this point, all the evil cultivator diners also reacted.

The abbot of the Pig Lao Temple was obviously brainwashing Li Yu and wanted him to become a Buddha in the flesh.

Maybe, there are some other calculations?

It was also a coincidence that at almost this moment, Li Yu officially completed the last spiritual food in the kitchen.

However, he didn't have time to call Hongdou to serve the food, as the changes in his body suddenly accelerated and moved towards his complete form.

Although Li Yu remained rational and listened to all the extraordinary knowledge, he had no time to see whether the third "bubble of truth" on his eye mask was full.

In his mind, Cairen Ge's song had echoed to its limit, almost pulling his soul into the fantasy of purgatory on earth.

As for his body, he no longer looked like a human. Disgusting tumors appeared all over his body. He slowly hunched over and lay on the ground, with his bloody tongue swinging. The six scarlet forbidden eyes in three rows on his forehead were open, the spine behind him exploded, and his flesh tentacles were cracking...

When this scene appeared, the evil cultivators not only did not show any fear, but were eager to try, wanting to rush forward.

But when I thought of Zhu Mei again, I began to feel worried.

Suddenly, something unexpected happened:

First, Li Yu himself, who was in the process of the mutation, roared in pain, but his movements were not slow. He grabbed his lower jaw and the top of his head with a pair of sharp claws, and then twisted it violently. With a crisp click, Li Yu actually broke his own neck?

This scene has already surprised the evil practitioners.

They could naturally see that this boy was trying to stop the mutation by committing suicide.

"So cruel!"

"This kid, is he really not afraid of death?"

Just when the evil cultivators were shocked and puzzled, an even more incredible scene appeared.

The cute maid who had been serving dishes obediently before suddenly uttered a cold and cruel mechanical voice:
"Master's body is changing...Master's reserved command is triggered."

"Activate the cutting function!"

Before the voice had faded, steam was seen coming out of one of Hongdou's mechanical arms, followed by the sound of gears, chains, and sharp blades breaking through the air.

In the blink of an eye, a delicate but terrifying chainsaw sword appeared in Hongdou's hand.

Without any unnecessary swings, the sword mercilessly slashed at Li Yu's limbs with a rumbling sound.

ps: There is more.
