Chapter 330: The Confidence Brought by the Invincible Pill

"Who?"

"The Jiuyou Sect. Don't you recognize them?" Lu Yang was a little surprised, not understanding why the senior members of the Immortal Sect were so astonished. You're all selling skewers here, so isn't it normal for the Jiuyou Sect to open a chain of stores in the outside world? For cultivators at the Fusion Stage to be so easily startled, their cultivation of inner peace must still be lacking. In contrast, Senior Brother Dai Bufan is excellent; he remained very calm when he learned that the Jiuyou Sect was preparing to open a chain.

"The Jiuyou Sect asked me if I had any ways to make money. I told them there was a barbecue restaurant project here that was guaranteed to be profitable. I asked if they wanted to do it, and they said yes." Lu Yang succinctly recounted the events.

The Sect Master and others thought they had misheard. The Jiuyou Sect responsible for expanding barbecue restaurants? Does that sound like something the Jiuyou Sect would do? Although Lu Yang kept his account of the events simple, the Sect Master and the others weren't fools; they believed Lu Yang had omitted many details. But no matter how much was omitted, the fact that the Jiuyou Sect was helping the Wen Dao Sect open a chain of barbecue restaurants still felt bizarre. Lu Yang must have used some lie to deceive the Jiuyou Sect. But that didn't make sense either. The Petrified Bone of the Jiuyou Sect has a secret technique to discern lies; no one can lie in front of him. They couldn't figure it out. Forget it, what's the point of thinking about this? They were all merely 'chang-gui' now, with no ambitions. As long as the barbecue restaurant could prosper, that was enough. It was a good thing that the Jiuyou Sect was helping to set up the barbecue restaurant. The more people they could drag down with them, the better.

"When we collaborated with the Jiuyou Sect, we provided two extremely important technical supports. As the first branch of the 'Come Again Barbecue' restaurant, you are also qualified to receive them." Under the expectant gazes of the Immortal Sect's senior members, Lu Yang retrieved something resembling a bookshelf from his identity jade token. "This is an automatic barbecue grill. Just place the skewered meat on it, and it will grill automatically."

Master Liu and Master Gao dismissed it, feeling that this magical item challenged their status: "Boss Lu, with all due respect, food cooked on such a grill has no soul. We don't need something like this." Lu Yang thought they had a point. Master Liu and Master Gao were both at the late Fusion Stage, and their grilling techniques were undoubtedly superior to this magical tool. Moreover, the most important thing was that Master Liu and Master Gao's only job here was grilling skewers. If the automatic grill replaced them, they would face unemployment.

"And this, the Three-Flavors Pure Yang True Fire seed." Lu Yang took out a small jade bottle, opened its mouth, and a flickering flame floated in the air, appearing mysterious. The Immortal Sect's senior members weren't particularly affected, but Little Qi and the other three female ghosts felt an instinctive fear upon seeing the True Fire seed. The fire seed contained the Pure Yang True Fire of a Golden Core stage powerful solitary cultivator, which naturally suppressed ghosts.

Lu Yang chuckled, "This is a product of combining Three-Flavors True Fire and Pure Yang True Fire. The Three-Flavors True Fire has miraculous effects on barbecue, providing three flavors. The Pure Yang True Fire I have is different from what you know; this version has aphrodisiac effects."

"Such a miraculous item exists in the world?" Not only the Sect Master, but even the Immortal Venerable showed a surprised expression. The Immortal Venerable possessed the memories of all members of the Immortal Sect. Even so, he had never heard of Three-Flavors True Fire or a Pure Yang True Fire that could be an aphrodisiac.

"This Pure Yang True Fire was a flame discovered by a very close friend of mine on their pursuit of ultimate perfection. I greatly admire this spirit."

The Sect Master pondered, "Pure Yang True Fire is good, but it seems we don't have much use for it in our Wen Dao Sect, do we?" Everyone in the Wen Dao Sect had decent cultivation, so they didn't need aphrodisiacs. Moreover, there were plenty of aphrodisiac medicinal ingredients within the sect; as far as Lu Yang knew, the ginseng from the Ginseng Doll was a potent aphrodisiac.

Realizing this, Lu Yang put away the Three-Flavors Pure Yang True Fire seed. With a flip of his palm, he released the Three-Flavors True Fire. "This is the Three-Flavors True Fire seed. You can try it out and see if it has miraculous effects on barbecue."

Master Liu skeptically took the fire seed, replaced the charcoal, and picked up ten skewers of bean curd skin to start grilling. As the bean curd skin was placed on the grill, under Master Liu's skilled flipping and roasting, its deliciousness slowly developed.

"Everyone, have a taste." When the bean curd skin was grilled, everyone took a skewer. Master Liu took a bite of his own grilled bean curd skin and his eyes widened abruptly. He had grilled simple bean curd skin countless times and was intimately familiar with its taste. He never expected that with the triple enhancement of the Three-Flavors True Fire's three tastes, it would impart a rich, sweet-then-spicy texture to the grilled skin. It directly elevated the taste of the grilled bean curd skin to a new level! This was a gap that could no longer be bridged by mere technique. So miraculous! No wonder Qin Yanran had always been dissatisfied with their skewers; the reason was right here. They had diligently studied grilling for several months, yet they hadn't understood it as thoroughly as a Golden Core stage cultivator. After this, they would definitely go into seclusion to cultivate and strive for new insights into the art of barbecue!

"Then this fire seed is yours to keep." Master Liu and Master Gao treated it as a treasure.

"And dear niece, did you tell anyone when you left Hundred Refinements Peak?"

"I don't think so."

"Then you'd better go back now. If Fifth Elder and Junior Brother Li return to Hundred Refinements Peak and you're not there..."

"They'll be very worried?"

"They'll forget you exist."

"I'll go back right now."

Lu Yang stretched, feeling he had done a good deed. In reality, if Qin Yanran disappeared, how could Fifth Elder and Li Haoran possibly forget her? On the contrary, they would search everywhere for her. But saying that would make Qin Yanran feel too sentimental, so he decided against it.

He slowly walked towards the Scripture Repository.

"What are you going to the Scripture Repository for?" In the spiritual space, the Immortal Fairy lay languidly on her bed, her legs straight up, her pale toes wiggling. Then, her legs angled, and her entire body flopped onto the bed. "Anything you don't know, this Immortal can teach you."

"To continue writing cultivation methods. My cultivation method, 'Mind Clarity and Nature Seeing Art,' I created myself, but my knowledge was limited at the time, so I only wrote it up to the Foundation Establishment stage. Now that I'm at the Golden Core stage, the method can't keep up with my progress. I can only look for inspiration in the Scripture Repository to see how to cultivate further."

"You can write cultivation methods at such a young age?" The Immortal Fairy was shocked; even just writing up to the Foundation Establishment stage was impressive.

"How could I? After I drafted it, Senior Sister modified a part of it for me."

The Immortal Fairy secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "I knew it! I couldn't even write my own cultivation method when I was at the Foundation Establishment stage, but you could? How much did that girl Yunzhi change for you?"

Lu Yang hesitated for a moment, then decided to tell the truth. "Only the name of the method was kept."

The Immortal Fairy: "..."

"Then you might as well have just let that girl Yunzhi continue writing the cultivation method for you directly."

"One must be independent. How can I always rely on Senior Sister? Maybe the cultivation method I write myself this time will actually pass her approval?" Lu Yang was full of confidence in himself.

The Immortal Fairy remained silent, thinking Lu Yang's confidence might stem from the Invincible Pill. It was better not to mention such a small matter to him.
