Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence - Chapter 258

Chapter 258: Chapter 131: Path of Refinement_3
 

The reason she acted coy and weak each day was purely due to her lazy nature.

Taking the swordtail fish steamed to perfection from Bai Xue’s head and placing it on the table, Shen Yuan gave Bai Xue’s little head a rub before looking towards Gong Buyu and saying:

“The cultivation is over. Let’s eat.”

Gong Buyu stared blankly at Shen Yuan who was serving food at the stone table, her mind went blank for a while.

She knew her master was a gentle person but had never thought he would be involved in ordinary tasks like cooking.

A few hours ago, he had enacted the Heaven and Earth Dao right in front of her in the courtyard, gathering the Elemental Qi of the cold winter and guiding her onto the Path of Refinement and Cultivation.

This led her to question if her master was the reincarnation of the Heavenly Court Emperor.

But then, the atmosphere changed; her master emerged from the kitchen holding the freshly cooked food.

The imposing, glorious image of the Supreme Taoist and Heavenly Court Emperor overlapped with the genial young man before her, leaving Gong Buyu full of incomprehension.

While Gong Buyu was still dumbfounded, Shen Yuan had already served her a bowl of rice and placed it on the side of the stone table.

As if waking from a dream, Gong Buyu hastily got up from her meditation cushion, her movements stiff but respectful as she said:

“No, B-Buyu is not hungry, thank you, Master.”

No sooner had she said this, than Gong Buyu smelled the aroma wafting from the dishes on the stone table.

Despite being a common meal, its aroma was far superior to that of spirit objects. On the first whiff, Gong Buyu felt a strong sense of hunger, an instinct from her flesh and blood body.

It was as if the food was not merely sustenance, but a manifestation of Heaven and Earth’s Primordial Elemental Qi.

“Gulp~”

A noise came from her belly; Shen Yuan smiles while the usually cold Gong Buyu couldn’t help her face turning a little red. It was her first time to be so uncomposed in front of her master.

“Why should we restrain ourselves as master and disciple?”

“This is what I made using my understanding of the Path of Refinement, applying Primordial Elemental Qi to the food. While it won’t contribute much to cultivation, it’s simply an attempt to satisfy the palate.”

Upon hearing Shen Yuan’s words, Gong Buyu no longer refused and thanked him in a soft voice:

“Thank you, Master!”

Gong Buyu sat primly in front of the stone table. After Shen Yuan’s suggestion, she picked up a slice of lotus root and put it into her mouth. The crunchy, sweet taste permeated her mouth, and strands of Heaven and Earth’s Primordial Elemental Qi teased her taste buds, making her savored a heavenly treat.

As someone who was accustomed to the fantastical delicacies of Heaven and Earth, Gong Buyu was stunned for a moment. By the time she recovered, the little kitty by her side had already buried its head in the bowl, gobbling up the food.

Seeing this, the normally reserved Gong Buyu also decided to join in the competition with Bai Xue.

Shen Yuan simply sat at the stone table, smiling as he watched Gong Buyu and Bai Xue’s antics.

For Shen Yuan, understanding and learning Nine Breaths Great Magic Power was not merely the acquisition of a Heavenly General Divine Power, it pointed out a direct path to the Celestial Vault, compensating for what he had lacked throughout his cultivation journey.

He was no longer confined to the capability of attack, or the supreme imperial edicts that commanded the gods.

The Path which Nine Breaths Great Magic Power practices emphasizes integration. Shen Yuan can use this Path to transform all objects and creatures, pointing out the way for his disciples. He can also incorporate it into mundane matters to create sumptuous food and satisfy his appetite.

Not being limited by the form of the object, nor bound by the base of divine power, that can be the law of the Heavenly General.

Of course, Shen Yuan’s application of the Nine Breaths Great Magic Power did not imply that it lacked offensive capabilities.

On the contrary, Shen Yuan’s extraction and refinement of the Elemental Qi of Heaven and Earth was his way of extreme slaughter.

If taken a step further, the Nine Breaths Great Magic Power could even be used to order the Elemental Qi of this world to attack enemies; this world’s Heaven and Earth’s Elemental Qi would all fall under the control of the divine power.

“However… The Path of Refinement had ultimately faded from the history of the Primal Chaos Realm. The Elemental Qi was just the foundation for the Four Steps of Immortality Ascension. The concentration of Elemental Qi in Primal Chaos Realm was inadequate, making its offensive power inferior to the Rain Calling Divine Ability.

If one could find a Spiritual Land full of Heaven and Earth’s Elemental Qi and use it to order the Nine Breaths Great Magic Power, it wouldn’t be difficult to defeat enemies.

Shen Yuan said to himself with a hint of regret:

“But how can such a place be found within the Primal Chaos Realm?”
