Finally, they devoured a huge plate of lobster noodles! The discarded lobster shells alone filled the entire table.
Shi Hao burped, the taste of the lobster still lingering on his palate. The meat was tender and springy, bursting with sweet flavors in every bite.
It was far superior to the farm-raised lobsters he had eaten before, even surpassing Australian King Prawns. To be honest, he could easily devour over ten pounds of them in one sitting.
For the next three meals, they indulged in garlic lobster, braised lobster, and five-spice lobster.
Shi Hao simply couldn't get enough of the delicious flavors, relishing every bite without a hint of boredom.
The system check-in had yielded hundreds of pounds of lobster as a reward, and they had already consumed over a hundred pounds in four meals! System-produced, truly a masterpiece.
“Master Uncle, maybe we should save some for Master when she returns?”
Gazing at the dwindling lobster supply, Cai Yun still remembered her Master.
Besides, after eating several meals of lobster, Cai Yun noticed the effect on her cultivation had diminished, possibly due to her reaching the late stage of Taiyi Jinxian.
It would likely take some time to break through to the Da Luo Jinxian realm.
But if this news were to spread, it would certainly shock all cultivators. In just a few short days, she had almost broken through two major realms, nearing the Da Luo Jinxian. She was indeed catching up to her Master!
“Indeed, we should save some.” Looking at the less than three hundred pounds of lobster left, Shi Hao couldn't be sure when he would receive another lobster reward.
“But not to save for her to eat. Cai Yun, divide the lobsters into two portions. Keep a small portion for raising in the pond in the courtyard. Toss the other portion into the river in front. Soon, we’ll have all the lobster we could ever want.”
Lobsters reproduce quickly, and in the Lingqi Chongyu Hong Huang Da Di (spiritually abundant Primordial World), Shi Hao could already envision lobsters becoming as prolific as in his previous life.
“Understood, Master Uncle. Speaking of which, Master Uncle, I encountered a difficult problem in my cultivation. I would like to return to the sect for a while. I may not be able to attend to you for the next few days.” Cai Yun whispered.
The lobster meals had propelled her to the late stage of Taiyi Jinxian, but she had no clue how to proceed to the next realm, how to cultivate further.
Therefore, she had to seek guidance from her Master, hoping she could enlighten her. Her Master had already severed his self-identity, becoming a Quasi-Saint after achieving the Severed Three Corpse state several days ago.
Her Master’s strength was considered top-tier among the great powers in the Primordial World.
“Go ahead, and tell your Master to bring back some chickens for me when she returns. I want to raise them in the courtyard. Your Sister really is something else. If I don’t remind her, she might not return for ages.” Shi Hao instructed.
Before Cai Yun left, Shi Hao gave her a controllable storage two-dimensional membrane as a gift.
As soon as Cai Yun returned to Skull Mountain, Shi Ji noticed her arrival.
The most shocking thing to Shi Ji was her cultivation. A few days ago, she was barely a Golden Immortal. Now, she was a late stage Taiyi Jinxian? !
Shi Ji hastily summoned Cai Yun and inquired about her cultivation progress.
“Master, it was Master Uncle's lobster. Master Uncle cooked the lobster so incredibly delicious, surpassing even dragon liver and phoenix marrow in flavor. It also enhances cultivation! After eating a few times, my cultivation broke through on its own. So I returned to the sect to ask Master for the cultivation methods for the Da Luo Jinxian and Quasi-Saint realms.”
Cai Yun thought, many of her second-generation disciples were still at the late stage of Taiyi Jinxian like her. If she broke through before them, wouldn't it bring glory to her Master?
Shi Ji was startled, but did not hastily impart the Three Corpse Technique. Instead, she only taught the cultivation methods for the Da Luo Jinxian realm.
After her conversation with Shi Hao, she had returned to repeatedly analyze the situation, realizing that Shi Hao was right. Severing the Three Corpse could lead to sainthood, but it was extremely difficult.
Unless one was wholeheartedly devoted to the Dao, simply seeking longevity and freedom, it would be unwise to pursue this path.
“The Three Corpse Technique can only lead to the Three Corpse Quasi-Saint realm, with almost no path forward. The unification of the Three Corpse is nearly impossible. Therefore, Cai Yun, you need not rush your cultivation. First, stabilize your cultivation. Perhaps one day, your Master Uncle may guide you. My master and I will also continue to analyze it.” To be honest, Shi Ji had a gut feeling that Shi Hao knew how to break through the Da Luo Jinxian realm beyond severing the Three Corpse.
“Master Uncle?”
Cai Yun was also amazed by the mystery surrounding her Master Uncle. He seemed to have no cultivation, yet his every move was profound and unfathomable. She couldn't comprehend his true level of cultivation.
“Master, Master Uncle said to bring back some chickens when you returned. He wants to raise them in the courtyard.” Cai Yun continued.
“Chickens?”
Shi Ji was momentarily confused. Her first thought was, “Did he want to catch Huang Cang, my junior brother, to raise for my elder brother?”
“He only wants a few chickens? No other requests? Never mind. I’ll just go to Jin Ao Island and grab a few stray phoenixes for him to fiddle with.” Shi Ji didn’t want to think about it anymore. For her, catching a few chickens was more difficult than grabbing a phoenix.
Phoenixes, after having their feathers removed, looked similar to chickens anyway. Plus, there were plenty of phoenixes and green phoenixes on Jin Ao Island. There was no need to go out and interact with mortals.
“Oh, right, Master. Master Uncle gave me a treasure. I don’t know what kind of principle it follows, but it possesses storage capabilities like sleeves with infinite space, the Mountains and Rivers Chart, etc. Master Uncle used it to move his entire home to Fire Cloud Cave in one go.”
Cai Yun then took out the two-dimensional membrane.
“Oh? Let me see.” Shi Ji was also curious about what Cai Yun had said.
Typically, storage methods involved creating a stable small space and then storing objects inside it.
“Yes, Master.”
Cai Yun, following Shi Hao's instructions, used the two-dimensional membrane on a hundred-meter-tall immortal tree in front of the cave dwelling.
The next moment, the two-dimensional membrane shot out, radiating scorching light and energy.
Within a radius of a few kilometers, not only living beings, but everything began to collapse!
Shi Ji could clearly sense through her divine consciousness that the spatial structure of that area had undergone a dramatic transformation, as if a stable space was being flattened, continuously folded into a scroll? !
Once everything subsided, a card slowly returned to Cai Yun's hand. Only then did Cai Yun say, “Master, they have been stored in this card.”
Shi Ji couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. Even with her Quasi-Saint cultivation, she couldn't comprehend the underlying principle. “What a bizarre storage method. I don’t understand its intricacies.”
She couldn’t understand, couldn’t fathom it.
“I don’t understand either, but I’m going to return to Bi You Palace and ask my Master about it.”
Shi Ji, holding the two-dimensional membrane, teleported directly to Bi You Palace.
After explaining her purpose, the brilliant Tongtian allowed Shi Ji to meet with him.
