With the death of the Nine Infant, Lu Yangs side was filled with high spirits, seizing the momentum to end the battle in one fell swoop.

Barbarian Combat TechniqueOne Force Overwhelms Ten Skills!

Barbarian Bone roared, striking with both fists from left and right, crushing the head of the armored beast.

The patterned giant python got lost in an illusion, lost its sanity, and swallowed half of its own body. By the time it woke up, it was too late to save itself.

Meng Jingzhou, seeing Lu Yang slay two monsters with one sword, felt a sense of competition rise within him. He used the Heaven Shaking Six Forms to forcefully kill both the tiger demon and the lion demon, not even giving them a chance to escape.

The three of them, Meng Jingzhou, Barbarian Bone, and Peach Blossom Leaf, panted heavily, their faces beaming with smiles.

No matter what, they had finally won this battle.

Lu Yang hadnt expended much energy; he had just used the power of Everlasting Fairy.

Dispel!

With the battle over, there was no need to maintain the appearance of Everlasting Fairy.

As soon as he returned to his original form, Lu Yang felt his mind become more active, and his thinking became less singular than before.

What did I just do?!

Recalling his foolish actions just now, Lu Yang broke out in a cold sweat.

You did pretty well just now, very much like my style! Everlasting Fairy gave a thumbs-up, praising Lu Yang for having the potential of an immortal.

Thats the biggest problem!

Reflecting on the recent battle, Lu Yang realized that using the Yellow Bean Fist to transform into Everlasting Fairy did indeed boost his combat power significantly, even explosively.

He could guarantee that using the Yellow Bean Fist, he was invincible in the Foundation Building Stage; no one could match him.

But the price was too high.

Silly laughter, saying foolish things Fortunately, he hadnt done anything too outrageous this time, otherwise, how could he face anyone if word got out?

Lu Yang secretly decided to treat the Yellow Bean Fist as a forbidden technique, to be used only as a last resort.

Fairy, I cant easily mimic you in the future, its too dangerous, Lu Yang sighed, feeling like he was trading his brain for power.

I dont think its dangerous at all? Everlasting Fairy was puzzled.

Impressive, Lu Yang! You even killed the Nine Infant. I didnt expect your Shape-Imitating Fist to be so powerful, Meng Jingzhou laughed heartily.

Too bad I cant learn your Lu Familys Shape-Imitating Fist. Otherwise, Id transform into my dad or my grandpa, borrow their power, and see who could beat me! At this point, Meng Jingzhou showed a regretful expression.

But theres something I havent figured out.

What is it?

The Nine Infant was tough to fight. Why didnt we just use a teleportation talisman to send it to the Demon Subjugation Pass? Meng Jingzhou was puzzled, especially since Lu Yang had displayed such a heroic attitude while using the Shape-Imitating Fist. Was that really necessary?

Lu Yang:

He was gradually being assimilated by Everlasting Fairy, and his brain wasnt working properly.

Senior Brother Lu, who did you transform into just now? Peach Blossom Leaf asked curiously. She didnt know that Senior Brother Lu knew such a cute girl.

This is an ancient inheritance, not to be spoken lightly, Lu Yang replied mysteriously, though he wasnt exactly lying.

The fewer people who knew about Everlasting Fairy, the better.

Up to now, no one knew who had killed Everlasting Fairy, what methods they had, or what their purpose was.

Anyone who knew of Everlasting Fairys existence could potentially be targeted by them.

Currently, only five people knew about Everlasting Fairy: Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, Barbarian Bone, Eldest Senior Sister, and Everlasting Celestial.

Meng Jingzhou and Barbarian Bone had no choice; they were both present when Everlasting Fairy resurrected.

Eldest Senior Sister goes without saying; its uncertain who is more dangerous. Her, or the person behind the scenes.

Everlasting Celestial wasnt allowed to leave the Dao Seeking Sect, making it much safer.

Come on, lets count the spoils. Meng Jingzhou called everyone to dissect the beasts and see if there was anything valuable.

Meng Jingzhou wasnt short on treasures or spirit stones; he enjoyed the process of collecting them.

The Nine Infant had been roasted to charcoal by Lu Yang, its demon core split in half, rendered useless. Nothing good could be found on the Nine Infant.

The two beasts decapitated by a single sword were quite ordinary, possessing just demon cores, pelts, and other such items.

The tiger demon killed by Meng Jingzhou had many valuable parts, like tiger bones and tiger genitalia, which could enhance virility. Unfortunately, this was the least useful for Meng Jingzhou.

The blood of the tiger demon and lion demon was very valuable. A master alchemist could refine it to trace its origin and produce a drop of true blood of Lu Wu and the nine-headed lion.

The bile of the patterned giant python could detoxify, fetching a good price.

Peach Blossom Leaf was the poorest among the four. The other three had all participated in the undercover mission for the Undying Sect and had played a minor role in its downfall.

These were all contribution points.

In contrast, Peach Blossom Leaf, although having completed many tasks, couldnt compare with the Undying Sect mission.

Barbarian Bone stripped the scales off the armored beast. The scales were hard and not easy to grip, making them good material for armor.

Well take these back and show them to Junior Brother Hao Ran. Barbarian Bone put the scales into his identity jade pendant.

The four of them tidied up, built a bonfire, and started preparing dinner.

From the auction in the morning, to the dense forest at noon, and the battle in the afternoon, they had been busy all day and needed a break.

Especially after acquiring so many good ingredients, it would be a shame not to have a meal.

Can we eat lion? Ive heard theres a traditional Central Plains dish called lions head. Ive never had it, Barbarian Bone suggested.

Peach Blossom Leaf was silent for a moment before saying, Is it possible that the lions head you heard about isnt the same as the one we have now?

Arent they both called lions head?

Fine, lions head it is. Well eat lion today. (TL Note: Lions Head or stewed meatball is a dish from the Huaiyang cuisine of eastern China, consisting of large pork meatballs or beef meatballs stewed with vegetables. The name lions head, derives from the shape of the meatball which is supposed to resemble the head of the Chinese guardian lion, specifically.)

Everyone worked together. Although Barbarian Bone had never eaten lion, he had often handled other beasts in the barbarian tribe, and the process was similar. He was responsible for preparing the lion.

Lu Yang chopped down a large tree and used the Qingfeng Sword to carve a three-meter-long stick to skewer the lion.

Meng Jingzhou set up a large automatic barbecue array and erected the grill.

Peach Blossom Leaf searched the surrounding area for edible fruits to balance out the heaviness of the meat.

Barbarian Bone plucked the lions fur and removed its internal organs, brushing it with a secret barbarian race sauce. Lu Yang skewered the lion, placed it on the grill, and lit it with the Three Flavours True Fire.

In the large automatic barbecue array, the lion was skewered on a stick, slowly rotating, sizzling with oil under the heat of the Three Flavours True Fire, emitting a mouth-watering aroma.

Barbarian Bone stared at the lion, lost in thought.

Barbarian Bone, whats wrong? Lu Yang thought Barbarian Bone was homesick.

I was thinking that the automatic barbecue array is mainly for small skewers. When dealing with whole roasted lamb, whole roasted lion, or other large animals, its somewhat inadequate, and the heating is uneven, which really tests the barbecue masters skills.

So youre thinking Lu Yang wasnt sure what Barbarian Bone meant.

I heard some sects in the southern border are good at controlling corpses. Can we learn such techniques and apply them to barbecuing?

For example, controlling the corpse of a lamb so it roasts itself over the fire?

Lu Yang:

Am I the only sane person in the Dao Seeking Sect?
