Fishing the Myriad Heavens

Chapter 457: Thick-Skinned, Eat To The Fullest

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

Bei Feng's purple golden kitchen knife rose and fell in a seamless manner, leaving only afterimages in its wake. A purple gold blade flower formed in the air from the afterimages!

This purple golden knife was something that Bei Feng had brought back from the Myriad World's kitchen. It didn't have any special attributes, other than the point that it was sharp. When paired with his strength, it was sufficient to slice through a Third Level Super Demonic Beast rib!

A huge piece of rib remained suspended in midair, not dropping from the beginning to the end. The piece of rib weighed over a hundred jin, but it was kept suspended in midair by Bei Feng with just a 20 cm long knife.

Sections of perfectly cut rib fell into the blue pot after going through the blade of the sharp little knife.

Bei Feng's attention was focused completely on the pot. Although his culinary skills had not reached the level of the top tier chefs, the appearance of this dish was already not bad.

Each section of the cut ribs were over a meter long. And this was due to the Demonic Beast's body being only this big. Otherwise, not to mention one meter, even cutting it into 10 meter sections was not a problem!

The flesh on the ribs carried a light pinkish color, and appeared crystalline and transparent. It looked like a pristine work of art.

This Demonic Beast had died for quite a long time already. But as it was being kept in the spatial ring, it was as if time had been stopped for it. So, when it was retrieved, the meat was still in very good condition.

After so many years, although Bei Feng had a sizable stock of spirit stones to support him, he'd still burnt through his supply of Third Level Demonic Beast meat. At this moment, he only had half a Third Level Demonic Beast remaining.

"It's a pity that the lava python boss's flesh and blood had been burnt away. Otherwise, I bet that it'll tastes delicious."

Bei Feng felt somewhat regretful at this moment. The lava python boss could already be considered as a half dragon. It only needed to completely transform its blood, and consume the Nine Stars Fruit, and it would become a dragon!

A beast like that could be considered to have separated itself from the lava python race, formally stepping into the ranks of a higher race!

That was a half dragon! Although its grade would not be as high as the Demonic Beast meat in his hands, its taste would definitely not be bad.

Numerous pieces of ginger, and a large section of green onions was directly thrown into the pot. After adding a suitable amount of water, a ball of flame burst out of his hand with a single thought!

A high temperature surged outwards, and the air around the flames started to ripple and twist.

The blue pot floated in midair, gripped by Bei Feng through space. A huge flame directly swallowed the pot whole!

In just an instant, the clear water in the pot started to bubble and steam. The ribs inside also started to rapidly change its color from pink.

But although the temperature was terrifyingly high, the water level in the pot had not decreased. This was truly a strange sight.

In just 10 minutes, Bei Feng extinguished the fire. There didn't seem to be any damage on the blue pot. And if someone went to touch the pot right now, they would find that the areas that's been in direct contact with the fire would only feel slightly warm!

When the protective cover formed by blood and Qi energy was removed, a thick scent of meat wafted through the kitchen.

"That little fellow is seriously too rude! If it was the old me, I'll smack the teeth out of his mouth with one slap on the spot! This old man had never drank such a disgusting tea in my lifetime!"

Qin Rulong complained angrily in the yard.

"Old ancestor..."

Qin Wufa began to speak, and then hesitated.

"What?! I say, is that little fellow really your son? What a misfortune. It's fine if you wanted to have a child with that woman, but in the end, she actually ran away. And if you didn't manage to find the child, then so be it. But now that you've found him, he doesn't want to acknowledge you! Despite all this, if he's just a normal kid, this old man would still not feel so unappeased in my heart. But it turns out that the boy is a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert, with three more powerful Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts under his wings!"

Qin Rulong started to rant and lecture Qin Wufa fiercely, not giving the latter any break. Qin Wufa opened and closed his mouth, but was unable to retort. Although they were all Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts, the person before him was his grandfather's grandfather...

"Right, what did you want to say just now?"

After lecturing for half a day, the old man's mouth began to feel slightly parched. Out of habit, he reached for the cup of tea before him. But as he looked at the cup of tea, he hurriedly retracted his hands and looked at Qin Wufa.

"I wanted to say that your esteemed old self really cannot beat him! Look over at those three, which one are you confident of defeating?"

Qin Wufa said seriously as he squinted his eyes and looked at the two humans and beasts not far away.

Qin Rulong: "..."

Qin Rulong's face was as dark as the bottom of a wok. 'Your sister! Can't you just act dumb quietly?!' Although he'd broken through to the Controlled Dan realm long ago, He'd been stuck at the primary stage of Controlled Dan all these years. Thus when he turned over and looked at the two humans and one beast, Qin Rulong found to his dismay that he had no ways of arguing back...

"Who allowed you to talk about this? Don't change the topic! We'll continue talking about your problem!"

Qin Wufa's expression turned a shade darker as he hurriedly dodged the question and began to lecture Qin Wufa again.

Bei Feng was in the kitchen cooking, and the water in the pot had already turned milky white and as thick as milk. The fragrance exuding from it was completely different from that of typical umami rich meat. Although the broth looked thick, and the appearance of the dish gave one the feeling that it should be greasy and heavy, but the fragrance was actually surprisingly light and refreshing.

Two different kinds of fragrance mixed together in a single dish; one had to admit that this was a truly fresh and strange thing!

Using a long ladle, Bei Feng scooped out a section of rib and looked at it carefully. The pink meat had turned into a blueish red color. Numerous spiral patterns could be seen on the bone.

Bei Feng tore off a piece of meat lightly and placed it into his mouth. There were no strange tastes, and the meat felt light and refreshing, as if pea powder had been added into the meat.

Biting down, the originally sinewy meat broke apart easily. The flesh was chewy and tender, and a refreshing juice burst forth from the it, fusing perfectly with the thick meaty umami taste, giving one no cause to grow tired of it. The combination of the two types of tastes melded together perfectly, and a unique fragrance lingered in the mouth long after.

Using the highest temperature, the clear soup was vaporized in an instant. Through this method, the juice was locked inside the meat, and as the process was sufficiently fast, the meat was also able to retain its perfect texture.

Bei Feng had also left the blood to sit in the meat, opting not to remove it intentionally. Most meat ingredients required the chef to drain all the blood from the meat perfectly, otherwise, the blood would affect the texture of the final dish.

But this did not apply to Demonic Beasts that were richly endowed by nature. Every part of a creature like this was a treasure in itself. The blood of the Demonic Beast contained incomparably thick blood and Qi energy, and would not affect the texture of the meat at all.

There weren't a lot of ingredients added, only some garlic and green onions, as well as a bit of salt. Too much ingredients would instead spoil the dish, corrupting the original taste of the meat.

"If only I can find some spirit herb level green onions and garlic, then the taste of the dish would definitely improve another level!"

Bei Feng thought with interest. He wasn't sure if such spirit herbs existed, but he was certain that there must be some substitute ingredients of similar tastes in the Myriad Worlds!

For Bei Feng, cooking was more about grasping the timing and fire temperature perfectly. The Demonic Beast meat was already extremely tasty in itself. Without the ability to bring the taste of the ingredient to a higher level with just culinary skills, it would be better to cook as simply as possible, and allow the original taste of the ingredient to be display itself to the greatest extent.

"Hm? This smell..."

Qin Rulong was in the middle of lecturing Qin Wufa when a light fragrance floated over, tugging at his nose. Qin Rulong's body froze momentarily before he stood up and looked in the direction of the villa.

"What's wrong? Although the smell is nice, there's no need to be excited to this extent?"

Qin Wufa asked with some confusion.

"What would you know? Just one look and I can tell that you've never eaten any good stuff before. But then, it's true that there's nothing good to eat in this era..."

Qin Rulong answered with disdain. When he sniffed the air again, his mouth began to grow watery.

"Since you've eaten so much good stuff before, why don't you enlighten me what this smell is?"

Qin Wufa retorted with some unhappiness.

"No idea. But it's definitely Demonic Beast meat. We're in for a treat today!"

"Sometimes, it's still better to be thick skinned. Look, if we left directly just now, we won't get to enjoy this meal!"

People often say that the older one got, the more narrow minded they became. Although it was not an absolute attitude towards everything, the big matters are usually handled unambiguously, while the small matters are settled in a carefree way. At this time, Qin Rulong was rubbing his hands shamelessly with glee.

Qin Wufa's face turned ugly in an instant. Who was the one complaining that this was bad, and that was bad? In the end, everything from before had been forgotten cleanly in the face of a feast!

"As expected, my skin is still not thick enough."

Qin Wufa sighed and lamented in his heart.

Bei Feng scooped all the ribs onto a huge plate, and without adding any additional ingredients, he directly carried the plate to the dining table.

"Woof! This Lord Dog wants to eat meat!"

The Cerberus had already shrunken its body and jumped onto the dining table.

"Meat? Bones are the yummiest!"

"Useless lot, the soup is the best!"

The Cerberus started arguing with itself all of a sudden.

"Infuriating idiots, the two of you can go and gnaw on your bone and drink your soup, this Lord Dog will leave the leftover bone for you."

Indigestion scolded with disdain. Although the ribs were tasty, it was not nearly as good as the meat. In that moment, the three headed fellow began to bicker even more intensely with itself.

"Meat? Bones are the best! There's always some nice soup inside the bones, and with a light suck, ah ah..."

Qin Rulong and Qin Wufa strutted in even without Bei Feng calling them. The moment he entered, Qin Rulong proclaimed his views proudly.

"Then just eat your bone, brainless old fogey. I'll like to see how you find bone marrow from rib bones!"

Hearing Qin Rulong's words, Indigestion immediately turned around and scolded with disdain.

"This old man is going to die from anger!"

Qing Rulong's face instantly turned as dark as the bottom of a wok. His blood and Qi surged upwards as a powerful pressure radiated out.

"Old man, you wish to fight?"

"Go, teach him a lesson!"

"Beat this old fellow into a cripple!"

The Cerberus growled as a huge aura wrapped around Qin Rulong's body.

Qin Rulong's aura was directly suppressed by the Cerberus. The Cerberus's bountiful aura could be kept and released at will, and the area three meters around Qin Rulong's body was surrounded by it.

"Ka-cha!"

The powerful pressure actually caused Qin Rulong's body to sink as countless cracks appeared on the ground under his feet. Qin Rulong's feet was forced to sink directly into the ground.

The Cerberus's aura was so powerful that Qin Wulong found it hard to breathe. The Cerberus's battle strength could completely rival a late stage Controlled Dan Heavenly expert. If it used its secret arts, it could even fight against peak tier Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts!"

Qin Rulong's cultivation was only at the primary stage of Controlled Dan. The distance between every small level in that realm was like the difference between sky and the sea. With just a moment of carelessness, he'd suffered greatly.

Just as Qin Rulong was about to break out of the Cerberus's suppression, the latter suddenly retracted the suppressive aura. This sudden switch in pressure caused Qin Rulong to feel so miserable that he almost puked out a mouthful of old blood!
