Chapter 978: Falling to Earth
"Wait, I thought he was going to refine pills. I didn't expect that he's actually using the sixth-ranked Flying Snow Divine Furnace to cook food?"
"Isn't that a complete desecration of the Flying Snow Divine Furnace?"
"Junior Brother Su is going a little too far this time."
"..."
The first to be completely shocked by Su Jingzhen's actions weren't the people from the various forces ten miles away.
It was the other fifty-five members of the Divine Dan Sect.
They were all alchemists, and they held the sacredness of alchemy cauldrons in the highest regard.
To them, a cauldron was meant for refining pills, and using it for anything else was blasphemy.
"Sigh, it seems that he's never really considered himself a proper alchemist. This is truly frustrating."
"Junior Brother Su isn't putting on an act. This is just his nature - he does whatever comes to mind. It's really hard to know how to deal with him."
"..."
After a wave of anger, Lin Xiu and the others sighed deeply.
They even stood about a mile away from Bai Suzhen and decided not to interfere with Su Jingzhen's actions. frёewebηovel.cѳm
If even the members of the Divine Dan Sect reacted this way, then the people from the Martial God Hall, Extreme Ice Hall, and other forces were equally dumbfounded.
Soon after, many of them also felt a surge of anger.
They felt like they had been played by Su Jingzhen.
They had been silently observing his every move, only to realize that Su Jingzhen was merely indulging his appetite.
"He's making fools of us all and wasting our time."
"Why don't we form another formation and attack? The number of fellow cultivators gathered here is increasing, and even if that Chaos Celestial Serpent is powerful, it might not be able to stop us all."
At this moment, Changyang Tiansha's face darkened as he tried to rally the surrounding forces.
However, the Extreme Ice Hall and the Profound Mystery Dao Sect had already sent over Han Qianxue, Ning Yao, and others.
They were no longer in a hurry.
They didn't care what Su Jingzhen was doing, as long as he wasn't rejecting Han Qianxue and the others.
If they could achieve their goals peacefully, why take unnecessary risks?
Seeing that the Extreme Ice Hall and the Profound Mystery Dao Sect remained unmoved, Changyang Tiansha's expression grew even darker.
His gaze turned toward Su Jingzhen, who was already feasting heartily in the forest, and his killing intent was unmistakable.
"Those who dare to oppose my Martial God Hall will never meet a good end. I heard that this guy came from the same force as Xuan Jin in the Divine Realm of Four Waters.
No wonder they're both so annoying. By the way, where is Xuan Jin? Why didn't I see him this time?"
Changyang Tiansha muttered to himself, scanning the crowd of the Martial God Hall but finding no trace of Xuan Jin.
...
Su Jingzhen, of course, paid no attention to how others viewed him.
After his meticulous cooking, the carefully prepared meat of the shadow leopard emitted an extraordinary aroma that made the five women who had just arrived salivate.
"What are you standing around for? There's so much shadow leopard meat. I can't finish it all by myself."
As he spoke, Su Jingzhen tossed several more pieces of marinated shadow leopard meat into the Flying Snow Divine Furnace.
Using his divine consciousness to control the flames of the Divine Cauldron, and with the support of his Dan Heart, he fully unleashed his alchemy skills. Each piece of meat was cooked perfectly in the cauldron, bringing out its unique flavor.
Soon, the cooked meat flew out of the cauldron.
Seeing this, Han Qianxue and the other four women didn't hesitate. Temporarily forgetting their original purpose for coming, they joined Su Jingzhen in a hearty feast.
Only Shengana remained standing to the side, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
"I've already said it-you'll understand everything later. Now, Miss Shengana, won't you fulfill our agreement and have dinner with me? Look, the moon is just right."
As soon as Su Jingzhen finished speaking, the sky above them seemed to be covered in a curtain of night.
The sky had indeed darkened, and a full moon was rising above the treetops.
As he spoke, Su Jingzhen tossed a golden, sizzling piece of meat toward Shengana.
Her brows furrowed slightly, but the strange aroma wafting from it made her nose twitch.
She picked up the piece of meat and took a small, cautious bite, and her furrowed brows instantly relaxed.
Seeing this, Su Jingzhen's lips curled into a faint smile.
"I was afraid that you wouldn't eat it. But now that you've tasted it, I don't believe you'll be able to resist."
Normally, Shengana drank only dew, consuming the essence of nature, untouched by worldly desires.
But now, a single piece of roasted meat had pulled her down from the lofty heavens to the mortal world.
After finishing the piece of meat, Shengana's taste buds had been awakened, but she felt too embarrassed to ask for more.
"Sister Elf, come join us. Although you're a celestial being, it's fine to indulge in mortal pleasures once in a while."
At this moment, Ning Yao seemed to sense Shengana's hesitation and walked over, taking her hand familiarly.
She led them to where Su Jingzhen and the others were sitting, and the seven of them gathered in a circle.
Su Jingzhen smiled and introduced Ning Yao, Yan Xia, and the others to Shengana, then continued cooking, preparing over a dozen more pieces of meat.
By now, Shengana could no longer hold back and began to eat heartily along with Ning Yao and the others.
The Shadow Leopard's meat was fully cooked and consumed within an hour.
The Shadow Leopard was only a level 7 demon beast, and even Ning Yao, the weakest among them, was far stronger in cultivation. There was no need for them to absorb its bloodline energy.
After eating, Jian Ling, Han Qianxue, and the others turned their gaze to Shengana.
From Shengana's attitude toward Su Jingzhen, they subconsciously assumed that Su Jingzhen had already tamed and contracted her.
"Can you give us some guidance on this matter with the elven race?
Our requests aren't excessive-we only want to contract one elf each.
If we can do that, we might be able to surpass everyone else in the younger generation when we return."
Jian Ling spoke directly.
Han Qianxue and Xuan Su also looked at Su Jingzhen with anticipation.
Back in the Divine Realm of the Four Waters, the three of them had already been leading figures in their respective sects.
At that time, their cultivation had already reached the peak of the Great Ascension Realm, which bordered the Spirit Immortal Realm.
Now, having gained opportunities in the Profound Mystery Dao Sect and the Extreme Ice Hall, their talents had allowed their cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.
If they could contract an elf this time, they would probably become transcendent figures once again.
However, as soon as they spoke, Shengana's expression turned cold.
She couldn't help but remember what Su Jingzhen had said earlier.
Her race of elves had lived in seclusion, never offending any power. Why did every force want to contract with them? Was it simply because they were beneficial to their cultivation?
Han Qianxue and the others didn't understand why Shengana's aura had suddenly turned icy.
Meanwhile, Su Jingzhen's lips curled into a bitter smile.
"I'm afraid I can't help you with that. I can only promise that if you ever need the power of the elven race in the future,
I'll come to your aid. But as for contracting them, there's really no way to do it."
His words made Han Qianxue and the others blink in confusion.
Shengana's cold expression softened slightly.
