Chapter 2372: Chapter 21: A Bountiful Harvest! A Wave of Fatness

Aside from that, the Corrosive Moon Demon Palace also has remnants of materials left from when the various demonic gods died and when the Corrosive Moon Demon Lord passed away. However, the battlefield was too chaotic at the time, and many were scattered into the star vortex, gradually consumed by void creatures. Bobo searched for a long time afterward, only retrieving a small batch.

Even so, the value of these things is not insignificant.

The materials from those demonic gods are relatively straightforward, but the remnants left after the Corrosive Moon Demon Lord’s death would need professionals from the Sacred Domain market to appraise before estimating their value.

Of course, this batch of items was painstakingly collected by Bobo over the course of one hundred thousand years, constituting the private assets of the Xuanling Saintess, and naturally, everyone was too embarrassed to divide them.

…

Just as everyone was happily dividing the spoils.

Sacred Domain.

Within the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins, the younger generation from various Sacred Dynasties, Sacred Races, and Heavenly Abodes, after some exploration, started the most core procedure of the “Ten Thousand Laws Festival”—trials.

The location for the trials was naturally within the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins.

As an ancient Heavenly Abode, the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins possess a complete formation system, along with dedicated artifact spirits responsible for maintaining the operation of the Heavenly Abode.

Early in the development, the rulers of various Sacred Dynasties, Sacred Races, and Heavenly Abode reached an agreement with the artifact spirits within the Heavenly Abode, where each forces provided a portion of spirit stones to maintain the normal operation of the Heavenly Abode and nurture various spiritual medicines and Heaven and Earth Treasures, with the artifact spirits needing to open the Heavenly Abode once every five hundred years for the younger generation to trial within.

During their exploration of the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins, young people could, upon their abilities, harvest various spiritual medicines.

Do not underestimate these spiritual medicines; though the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins is opened every few hundred years, the spiritual energy within is extremely abundant. Coupled with various Immortal Fields and formation nurturing technologies, spiritual medicines of Rank Six can successfully be nurtured within these few hundred years, equivalent to the potency of spiritual medicines growing thousands of years in the wild, sometimes resulting in many “Legacy Pearls” from previous sessions with even stronger properties, often reaching the level of ten thousand years spiritual medicine.

If luck and strength were truly impeccable, there might even be opportunities to discover tens of thousands of years spiritual medicines and legacy treasures within the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins left untouched by predecessors.

Of course, the latter is a very slight possibility since the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins had been scavenged numerous times. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have gradually evolved into a welfare place for young people to trial.

Hence, True Immortals at the Celestial Sons and Daughters level are generally unlikely to participate, rather leaving the opportunity to those in greater need.

Upon reaching the level of Saints, naturally, they would dismiss these trials even more.

However, since it is a trial, there cannot be a lack of monsters. Strength is essential in obtaining spiritual medicines.

At this moment.

In a Spirit Field rich with Immortal Machines, Wang Licui effortlessly defeated a massive muscled wild creature at the advanced stage of Divine Power Territory.

This particular Spirit Field contains five or six thousand-year spiritual medicines, along with one ten thousand-year spiritual medicine.

But Wang Licui didn’t even glance at the spiritual medicines, generously distributing them to the young disciples of the Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode trailing behind her.

With Lici’s current wealth, these spiritual medicines do not hold any value for her.

Having received benefits, those young disciples were quite appreciative, showering praise with calls of “Lici Little Immortal Monarch, mighty,” and “Little Immortal Monarch, imposing.”

However, Wang Licui didn’t pay much attention to these. Her full attention was on the massive muscled wild creature before her.

“This beast is so plump, the meat must be tender,”

Wang Licui swallowed slightly, her mind already planning how to handle the meat from different parts of this wild creature, deciding the cooking methods.

On the ground beside the wild creature, a large pot was already set up, the water boiling, and nearby a neatly arranged set of bottles and jars of seasoning.

This pot was purchased from Tianxing Gui Family.

Of course, it’s not the Dao-level item “Boiling Sky Pot,” but a next-level Divine Treasure Level pot “Stewing Dragon Pot.” Although termed “Stewing Dragon,” it can only stew two to three tons of ingredients at best, barely stewing a flood dragon.

The pot is somewhat small, requiring the plump massive beast to be stewed in batches.

But just as Wang Licui took out clean kitchen tools, ready to disassemble the beast and process the meat, she noticed it gradually morphing into specks of energy from a certain point on its back, dissipating into the air.

“Wh… what is happening?” Wang Licui, incredulous, widened her eyes, frantically scanning the surroundings with God Sense, “Who, who stole my ingredients?!”

“Little Immortal Monarch.” Divine disciple Ye Jingyun noticed Wang Licui’s reaction and cautiously said, “You don’t know? These monsters are all energy illusion beasts created by the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins, and when they die, the cave’s artifact spirit retrieves the energy to form new monsters.”

“What? These are fake monsters? Virtual?” Wang Licui’s eyes nearly popped out.

She had absolutely no idea such a thing existed.

She had sharpened her knives for so long, ready for a grand feast in the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins, only for these wild creatures to be akin to those in virtual game cabins, mere deceptive constructions!

“Wait… that’s not right~” Wang Licui suddenly sniffed, perceiving something different, “This energy is real, it’s not a true virtual monster.”

As she spoke, the massive beast had already dissipated by thirty percent.

Such a large beast, nearly disappearing!

Wang Licui was suddenly exceedingly furious, at “Cave’s artifact spirit, do not steal my food! Even if it’s an energy illusion beast, it’s my spoils, don’t steal it!”

As she spoke, the aura around her surged tremendously.

In the midst of fierce roaring, a colossal Gluttonous Phantom suddenly appeared behind Wang Licui, opening its bloody mouth toward the beast.

“Boom!”

The air abruptly emitted a quivering sound.

A massive black hole suddenly emerged above Wang Licui’s head, deep and dark, emanating terrifying suction power, instantly enveloping the beast’s corpse, dragging it quickly into the black hole.

The remaining energy in the beast’s body was immediately devoured completely, leaving not even the slightest trace of energy speck.

Wang Licui touched her stomach, feeling the remaining energy in the beast’s body had entirely entered her devouring space, finally calming her expression.

Energy is energy~ though not as tasteful as proper food, it fills the stomach nonetheless.

Having packed away the pot and seasoning previously displayed, she led the young disciples of the Sea of Clouds Heavenly Abode to another Spirit Field, defeated a large monster bird guarding spiritual medicines, then used her devouring skill to consume the monster bird’s corpse, continuing to the next Spirit Field…

Without the process of cooking and chewing, her devouring efficiency became higher.

The artifact spirit of the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins was dumbfounded.

She had been doing this work for so many years, never encountering such overbearing fierce trialist.

Condensing energy illusion beasts consumes a lot of energy. Allowing her to continue devouring could exhaust her energy, then how would she run the trial site of the Returning Spirit Cave Ruins in future?

At the same time.

Outside the Heavenly Abode.

As “elders” and referees, monitoring the situation within the Heavenly Abode via mirror projections, Saint Qingyuan, Saintess Water Moon, and a group of True Immortal Realm elders, upon witnessing this, could not help but cast glances among each other, each with notably peculiar expressions.

“Ahem~” Saintess Water Moon covered her mouth, coughing slightly, her gaze towards Saint Qingyuan complex, “Qingyuan, where did your master pick up a great anomaly like Lici little sister?”

“Uh hehe~~~” Saint Qingyuan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, hard-pressed to maintain his composure, “My little sister’s temperament is actually quite good, just slightly protective of food…”

“This is ’slightly’ protective of food?”

Saintess Water Moon’s mouth twitched, finding Saint Qingyuan’s claim of blatant falsehood impressive yet unreachable.

However, more than Wang Licui’s “protectiveness,” what she truly cared about was another aspect.

Saintess Water Moon stared at Wang Licui’s projection in the distance, her beautiful shimmering eyes slowly narrowing, a radiant light illuminating them, “Her Gluttonous Dharma Phase Phantom, seems not simple~ Such powerful devouring law abilities, being able to swallow even energy illusion beasts.”
