Chapter 175 - Hunting Cooking Ingredients
After Jiu Shen refined the World Heart, he could now ’see’ everything within the Spirit World as if it was part of his body. Now, he understood why the system told him that he would become the Deity of the Spirit World after refining its World Heart. It was because he could now teleport anywhere in the Spirit World and no one else could also challenge him here no matter how strong they were. Of course, this rule only applies to the inhabitants of this Spirit World.
"First, let me capture a few fishes to cook later, and uh... isn’t this a Fragrant Luminous Clam? It’s only a 7th-rank aquatic savage beast, and it has pearl which can be melted into a delicious liquid that can enhance the flavor of any wine or food. This thing’s pearl is a good ingredient for wine-making. Not to mention its tasty meat. Good!" Jiu Shen muttered after discovering a certain aquatic savage beast that was not too far from where he was.
"I’ve been making wine using the system’s ingredients all this while. Maybe I should make my own wine recipe and sell it in the store..." Jiu Shen’s eyes lit up as he thought about that.
- Ding!
- Sudden Mission: Create a personal wine recipe that can pass the standard of the system. The final product of the Host will be assessed by the system and the price will be dependent on the quality of the wine.
Oh? A sudden mission?
Jiu Shen who was about to head in the direction of the Fragrant Luminous Clam suddenly stopped in his tracks when he heard this abrupt notification from the system.
After looking at the mission details, Jiu Shen smiled confidently. When he first transmigrated in Nuar, he had been constantly practicing his wine-making skills under the system’s orders, so he was fairly confident in himself. He didn’t even have to do much since there were already pieces of equipment that could help his winemaking even more efficient.
"This can wait at a later time. After all, I still need more ingredients if I want to make a good wine recipe. For now, I will get this Fragrant Luminous Clam first." Jiu Shen said as he disappeared from his location.
Several kilometers away deep within the ocean, Jiu Shen reappeared in front of a giant clam that was as huge as an ordinary elephant. Its intimidating mouth had two rows of sharp saw-like teeth. One look and anyone could tell that it could even tear metals apart. The huge clam had a dark color that made it look inconspicuous in the deepest part of the ocean where there is no light. However, Jiu Shen knew that it could produce a brilliant light to attract its prey.
The Fragrant Luminous Clam wasn’t even able to discover Jiu Shen’s presence and it appeared to be in a state of deep slumber as it burrowed half of its body into the seabed.
Looking at this huge clam, Jiu Shen smiled with a strange look. ’This guy should be hibernating here. Unfortunately, I will have to disturb your deep sleep since I still need to use your meat to cook delicious seafood. Hmm, how should I cook this big guy?’
Unaware that there was a devil in front of it, the Fragrant Luminous Clam remained burrowed into the ground. Although it was hibernating, it could still sense its surroundings perfectly, but it still wasn’t able to detect Jiu Shen who was now walking towards it with a bad smile hanging on his face.
"Since this guy is offering himself to me, how could I bear to disappoint it?" Jiu Shen chuckled in his heart as he used his spiritual power to attack the defenseless soul of the poor Fragrant Luminous Clam.
A streak of invisible light struck towards the hibernating clam, and it could not even emit a shriek before it died in a blink of an eye. Its soul was eradicated in just a single second!
The huge mouth of the Fragrant Luminous Clam slightly parted after its death and Jiu Shen could already smell its alluring fragrance even though he was still deep in the ocean floor.
He clicked his tongue as he stored the dead Fragrant Luminous Clam inside his space earring. "This one is not enough, I have to get more and let my most trusted subordinates eat a few delicacies made by me. I’ll let them taste the best seafood in their entire lives. Hehe."
Bubble. Bubble.
Not too far away, Jiu Shen appeared in front of a shark-like savage beast. It was more than ten meters in length and its body was covered by tough metallic scales, making it look like an impenetrable ocean tank. On top of its head was a sword-like horn that was about twelve inches long.
Looking at this monster of the sea, Jiu Shen let out a warm smile that was even more beautiful than the blooming of flowers.
Seeing Jiu Shen’s smile, the huge shark felt its heart contorting in alarm. This human is dangerous!
It hurriedly darted away like an arrow that was shot from a crossbow, leaving behind a trail of bubbles.
This aquatic savage beast had a cultivation level at the peak stage of the 7th-rank Emperor realm. It could be considered as a top predator in the ocean.
"This little fish looks tasty. Not bad. I can make a delicious side dish with your meat." Jiu Shen said in his heart as he used the same spiritual attack to kill the pitiful shark-like savage beast. He pointed a finger at the escaping shark and a streak of imperceptible light came out of his finger and it instantly shot towards the shark.
As if it was struck by lightning, the huge shark suddenly turned stiff as it stopped from its tracks.
Jiu Shen ’walked’ towards the carcass of the savage beast and immediately stored it inside his space earring. "I need to get a few more before I go back to that Little Lizard."
Thus, Jiu Shen spent another hour hunting for high-level aquatic savage beasts. He was quite picky, so he spent most of his time looking for a suitable savage beast to hunt.
And after an hour, Jiu Shen hunted a little more than ten savage beasts!
"This should be enough. With these ingredients, I can cook some mouthwatering dishes for my people." Jiu Shen smiled as he stored the aquatic savage beast that he just killed a few moments ago.
