“It’s been less than half a year!¹¹

Bao Chao was utterly shocked.

He considered himself to be quite gifted in the Dao of the Spirit Cook, but he had spent a full twenty years on the second step when he was learning.

Even though he knew that Foundation Establishment Competitors had the help of their Spiritual Sence, their handling of spirit food ingredients had to be stronger by a lot.

But is it really this exaggerated?

The key point was that Elder Wang’s handling of rhe ingredients was too precise and accurate; even if he casually took a Class I spirit beast, his handling was flawless, in no way inferior compared to Bao Chao.

However, he knew well how much effort he had put into the second step.

That’s why he was even more shocked.

He sincerely praised, “Elder Wang’s talent in the way of the spirit cook is as if he was born for it!”

After hearing these words, Wang Ba didn’t know whether or nor to be happy.

Does this mean he was born to be a cook?

However, in his heart, he did not find this surprising.

Simply pur, the Dao of the Spirit Cook is a profession that you can get good at through plenty of training.

He’s also good at summarizing and generalizing, and finds similar handling rules among different ingredients.

This allowed him to quickly master rhe second step in a short amount of time.

“You flatter me, Master Bao. Now that the second step is completed, what should I do for the third one?”

Wang Ba calmed his feelings and immediately returned to the main topic.

He had specifically invited Bao Chao here, nor to show off in front of him.

Bao Chao mused:

“The third step involves a bit more.¹‘

“However, it can generally be divided into three major aspects: magic tool, purification seal, and fire control.”

He went on to explain earnestly:

“The Spirit Cook’s magic tool is the container needed to cook the spirit food. Different grades of spirit beasts correspond to different grades of tools, and different types also correspond to different types. For instance, rhe tools used to process the Spirit Turtle and the Spirit Chicken are different.”

“As for the purification seal, the same principle applies. Different ingredients and tools correspond to different purification seals, even the way they are invoked and the frequency of mana infusion are different.¹‘

“And finally, fire control, to some extent, is very similar to alchemy, and it also requires a lot of practice.¹‘

Afterward, Bao Chao explained the specific details to Wang Ba and lent him a complete set of Class T Spirit Cook’s magic tools.

Although such tools are not complicated, they are extremely rare because they must be specially made by a tool refiner due to the fact that there are very few spirit cooks in the Cultivation World.

Currently, Wang Ba is running low on spirit stones and temporarily has no extra resources to ask a tool refiner to make them.

He immediately accepted Bao Chao’s Spirit Cook’s magic tools and began practicing with the Spirit Chicken.

Among them, learning the Purification Seal was successful with the help of the Lifespan Panel, only the fire control part was a bit difficult.

After all, his fire-style spiritual root had been converted and absorbed by the other three styles, so although he could still control some kindling of spirit fire, it was not as easy as before.

Thankfully the effect wasn’t big, and after a few days of consecutive failures, he finally successfully produced about a spoonful of chicken essence.

Bao Chao tasted it and gave an evaluation:

“The purity is close to sixty percent, pretty good. It seems like the control of fire is a bit lacking.”

Unable to achieve one hundred percent purity, Wang Ba felt a little helpless, but he also knew that fire control is a process that requires constant practice, which can only be accomplished through diligent cultivation.

After cultivating for a few more days, it was soon the day when the teleportation array would be open for the month.

Remembering that he hadn’t seen Bu Chan in two months, and indeed being short of money, he borrowed some spirit stones from Bao Chao to pay for the use of the teleportation array and returned to East Saint’s base.

It had been two months since he had returned to East Saint’s base.

Wang Ba found that the atmosphere in East Saint’s base was growing more and more solemn and heavy.

While he didn’t see many cultivators missing arms or legs on the side of the road, when he passed through the market, he saw that many houses in the distance in both the Mulou House and the Lingshui Courtyard had white banners hanging in front of them.

When his spiritual sense swept through, nine out of ten rooms in the once crowded Shidong House were now empty.

Witnessing this, Wang Ba let out a sigh.

Heresy cultivators were seen as expendables in the Tianmen Cult.

Being exploited by the Tianmen Cult every day, they dedicated all their efforts just to be pushed onto the road to death by the Tianmen Cult themselves, to burn their last bit of value.

If it weren’t for his possession of some skills needed by the Tianmen Cult, even if he was a Foundation Establishment Competitor, he might not be able to avoid this fate.

His desire to leave the Tianmen Cult became more urgent.

He immediately rushed back to the chicken farm by South Lake.

He saw Bu Chan taking care of the spirit field from a distance.

After not seeing each other for two months, the two naturally clung to each other. However, Wang Ba had something on his mind and quickly handed a Spirit Beast Bag to Bu Chan.

“These are Fragrance Bees. They must collect flowers from a hundred different spirit plants to make the extremely rare ‘Hundred Fragrance Honey’. What I want, however, is the honey wax within?’

Although Bu Chan didn’t understand, she always listened to Wang Ba’s words. Immediately she took the Spirit Beast Bag and said, “Okay, right after this batch of spirit rice ripens in half a year, I will…”

“No, half a year is too long, it has to be as soon as possible!¹¹

Wang Ba stared ar Bu Chan seriously, not saying any unnecessary words.

But from Wang Ba’s tone, Bu Chan immediately sensed something. She looked at Wang Ba in surprise, quickly schooled her expression to hide the surprise in her eyes, and firmly nodded her head.
