Primordial Cultivator-Chapter 64: Practice Alchemy (1)

Chapter 64: Practice Alchemy (1)

Elder Jing glared at Yang Wei without responding to his pitiful look and ordered him to cook another beggar chicken.

Yang Wei wanted to reject but Lian Xinyue was also staring at him with a pleading expression.

“Is it really that delicious?” Yang Wei asked since he loved this dish, not because of the taste but the memories behind it.

Elder Jing and Lian Xinyue nodded their heads at the same time as it was the first time they had ever tasted such delicious chicken.

Yang Wei twitched his mouth slightly on their unison in agreement as he took out another chicken from his spatial ring.

Afterward, he started prepping for the chicken and like Elder Jing’s previous reaction, Lian Xinyue also yelled out in surprise when she saw Yang Wei placing dirt all around the lotus leaves.

Elder Jing smirked at her amateur reaction and said, “Little Xianyue, don’t be such a country pumpkin and act so immaturely. Yang Wei is simply doing the preparation for the beggar chicken dish.”

Elder Jing had a prideful expression when she lectured Lian Xinyue about the process of the beggar chicken.

Yang Wei was rendered speechless at Elder Jing for having such a thick face.

‘Weren’t you the same as Lian Xinyue but with an even more exaggerated and angry reaction previously?’

Yang Wei sighed inwardly but didn’t dare to utter those words aloud because he’s afraid of getting pinched in the waist again.

Once again, when the flame started burning around the dirt covering the chicken, the aroma started spreading out and Lian Xinyue managed to take this opportunity to sniff it in close quarters compared to before when she was outside the cave.

She was blessed to know Elder Jing more than the others because the rest of the disciples and Elder Pao Huang were full of frustration from the fragrance emitting inside.

“Damn it, they’re just bullying me now by cooking such food.” Elder Pao Huang cursed aloud as he glanced at the inside with an envious look.

“E-Elder Pao Huang… should we also be like junior-sister Lian Xinyue and muster up our courage to enter inside.” A disciple said as his stomach grumbled loudly.

It was like a chain reaction since everyone else soon started to follow with their stomachs grumbling. Although they can fill their hunger with spiritual qi around the air, they prefer to have the feeling of eating the food physically.

Normally, cultivators would only resort to using spiritual qi in the air to fill their hunger when they’re busy cultivating in close doors. Otherwise, there would be no point in being a cultivator if they can’t even enjoy something as simple as eating some food that mortals do every day.

Elder Pao Huang also couldn’t handle his stomach grumbling and decided to make a decision since he doesn’t know when Elder Jing would permit them to enter the cave.

Thus, Elder Pao Haung coughed slightly to gather everyone’s attention before speaking, “We shall explore around this place and hunt for some magical beasts. Afterward, we would dissect their meat and eat them as the magical beasts are abundant with spiritual qi that will help us regain our true qi faster.”ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖

The disciples nodded their heads as they created two teams and scattered around to search for magical beasts.

Meanwhile, back inside the cave, Yang Wei has finished cooking another beggar chicken again with Elder Jing staring at it like a predator.

Lian Xinyue was also drooling on the freshly cooked beggar chicken but she didn’t dare to take a piece of chicken as she glanced at Elder Jing with a pitiful expression.

“Elder Jing,” Lian Xinyue said in a melodic tone, causing Elder Jing to heave a helpless sigh.

“Fine, you can eat with us since you’re here already.” Elder Jing said since she had almost eaten a full chicken by herself if it weren’t for the sudden intrusion of Lian Xinyue.

With Elder Jing’s permission, Lian Xinyue hurriedly snatched a piece of chicken, almost burning herself in the process but she didn’t care as she chomps the chicken down to her throat.

Yang Wei stared at the two peerless beauties as they ate the beggar chicken without a care of their current appearance.

‘What happened to their dignity and etiquette as a woman?’ Yang Wei asked inwardly as he wondered if he’s the one abnormal.

Sometime later, Elder Jing and Lian Xinyue gave a blissful smile as they rubbed their stomach softly after finishing the beggar chicken.

“Ahh~ that was the best chicken dish I have ever eaten. If I have to compare this dish to other spiritual dishes in the restaurant from the Phoenix Kingdom, it is like comparing heaven and earth.” Lian Xinyue said and Elder Jing also agreed with her comment.𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

“Oh right, what is your current progress in alchemy?” Elder Jing asked Lian Xinyue.

Lian Xinyue shuddered at the sudden question and with an awkward smile, she said, “Uhh… still the same as before because I was busy focusing on my cultivation instead of practicing my alchemy.”

Elder Jing sighed at the answer from Lian Xinyue.

Alchemy was a great profession in the cultivation world and the condition to become an alchemist was extremely demanding that one in a thousand people could possibly have a chance of becoming an alchemist.

Lian Xinyue was lucky enough to meet the requirement of becoming an alchemist but instead of focusing on it, she decided to focus on her cultivation and test her luck in this mysterious realm.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei was wondering if he could become an alchemist himself. After all, he had heard many rumors that alchemists were respected everywhere no matter where they went and enjoyed a prestigious status.

Elder Jing saw Yang Wei’s eager expression and she started curving her lips upward as she forgot about him in his chance of becoming an alchemist.

“Yang Wei, do you want to learn alchemy?” Elder Jing asked softly.

Yang Wei didn’t even take a second as he nodded his head in anticipation.
