Yamafu Military Affairs

Chapter 469 Liberation
After taking a shower, Qin Huai changed into a turtleneck sweater and returned to the observation deck from the cabin. He found that Ao Ling in the attic had already placed the carved radish flowers on a porcelain plate, with a glass of rice wine that had just been warmed with hot water next to him.

The boiling water in the iron pot was bubbling. Two taels of fine noodles cooked to the right softness were scooped up with a strainer and served in a delicate porcelain bowl. It was placed on the table with the other crab dishes, looking very tempting.

The most eye-catching dish among the dishes is a crab ball served on a large round plate. The lower half of the plate is decorated with green vegetables and fruits to resemble sea waves, and the crab ball is on top of the waves.

It looks like the fiery red sun floating on the waves, which is quite artistic.

【Typhoon Shelter Fried Crab】

Category: Consumables
Quality: Legend

It is made of rare ingredients and ingredients stir-fried in the typhoon shelter. Eating it can increase the strength of the arms. At that time, moving mountains and splitting seas will be a piece of cake, and you will obtain [Yanfu Secret Treasure·Covering the Sea].

Note: Half a shell containing yellow is suitable for drinking with wine, and two claws are cut into snow to encourage eating.

Unlike the fried crabs Qin Huai had eaten in Hong Kong Island, this dish was obviously improved by Ao Ling. The crab meat was clumped together under the crab shell. Once it was opened, one could see a jade-colored ball soaked in red soup.

Now, except for the intact crab legs on the side, the overall shape is like a sun slowly rising above the sea, beautiful and appetizing.

"The meat of this seventh-level crab is of great quality. Even after being cooked, the crab meat is jade-colored."

"After all, it is a great monster with more than 3,000 years of cultivation, so its shell, roe and meat are naturally extraordinary. Although our culinary world has always said that sea crabs are not as good as river crabs, river crabs are not as good as stream crabs, and stream crabs are not as good as lake crabs, but the meat of this [Sea Covering] is truly a rare and precious spiritual ingredient that is hard to come by once in a thousand years."

Ao Ling smiled slightly, and pushed a few small plates of oil, vinegar and sauce in front of Qin Huai with her delicate hands.

"Then I must taste it."

Qin Huai became interested and immediately picked up a piece of crab sashimi and swallowed it in big gulps.

Naturally the two of them had a lot to say when talking about crabs. After all, there have been so many people who love crabs from ancient times to the present. From Liu Chengxun, nicknamed Huang Da in the Later Han Dynasty, to Bi Zhuo in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Li Yu, who was known as a crab maniac in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, we can see how delicious crabs are. However, these people love to eat lake crabs, not sea crabs.

Of course, one thing is for sure, a skilled sea crab, if it thinks with its hind toes, is much better than an ordinary lake crab.

"Mmm, very sweet."

Qin Huai's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached for the crab balls in the red soup with the chopsticks in his hand.

The crab balls covered with fried garlic, chili peppers and fermented black beans have a light red hue when picked up, as if they were covered with a thin layer of starch sauce, or like jade covered with a layer of red sand.

As soon as you put this ball of spicy crab meat in your mouth, the spicy feeling wrapped in the outer layer will sweep over your mouth, until the outer layer melts in your mouth, revealing the tender crab meat inside, and the delicious feeling will quietly spread.

The complicated feelings lingered for a long time. Qin Huai smacked his lips and mixed the crab roe and crab meat cubes that were reserved into the noodles. Just as he was about to eat it, his body naturally produced a sense of resistance, similar to the feeling of being full. However, Ren Tu and Yan Bu did not give any warning, which meant that the crab meat still had an effect on him.

Ao Ling, who was accompanying him, seemed to have anticipated this situation and handed over a glass of rice wine at the right time.

[Flower Room]: Flowers are in full bloom, and dew is collected to make wine. After drinking it, all abnormal conditions of the body are eliminated, and the body's resistance to natural disasters is permanently increased.

Note: In spring, pick flowers for food, and in summer, look for fruits for a living.

After eating the crab roe noodles with [Huajian], Qin Huai heard Yanfu's reminder in his ears.

"Your inheritance [Spirit of Tianwu] has devoured the power of the sea!"

"Your inherited skill [Cang Lan] has been sublimated and gained additional strengthening effects!"

[Seed of Supernatural Power: Overturning Rivers and Seas]: One of the Thirty-Six Tiangang Supernatural Powers, it has the supreme power to control rivers, lakes and seas and stir up huge waves. It is the entry-level supernatural power that directly points to the word "water" among the Three Thousand Great Daos.

When competing with the Water God and the Dragon King, you will gain extra favor from the water elements of heaven and earth, and suppress the Water God Palace whose rank is not higher than yours.

Note: Tiangang method is a great supernatural power.

"The mechanism for obtaining the Yamabu secret treasure is really unpredictable. It would be great if most secret treasure enhancements could be obtained like [Covering the Sea] by fighting, killing, eating and drinking."

Qin Huai thought about the secret strategy he had found in the mother's crown before, and felt a little emotional.

The conditions for obtaining secret treasures and strengthening by walking in the Yamafu are mostly strange and varied. If there is no guidance from predecessors and strategies left behind, it is difficult to obtain multiple levels of secret treasures and strengthening by walking at a low level. Even if it is Qin Huai, if the long-term Yamafu event of [Four Seasons of Heaven] had not been opened, it is still unclear whether he could have the dozens of Yamafu secret treasures he has now.

However, Qin Huai had also heard some rumors that some special Yambu fruits would produce some extremely rare foreign objects that could add dozens or even dozens of secret enhancements to walking at one time. In a short period of time, a peak Baji with a weak foundation could surpass the average agent in the number of secrets and have the confidence and strength to hurt the enemy across levels.

The right-hand man of the Lord Zhao Jianzhong, and the boss of Yan Zhaohui's field department, had more than two hundred enhancements of the Yanfu secret treasures when he was at the peak of the Eight Extremes. With his personal expertise reaching 100%, he even has a glorious record of defeating the agents head-on.

From this we can see how important a sufficient number of Yama's secret treasures are for traveling.

"After this salvage operation is completed, we need to take some time to increase the number of Tianwu's secret treasures. In addition, it is time to think about Taowu's inheritance trial."

Thinking of the Taowu clone that he had sent out to seek secret treasures to strengthen, Qin Huai was not too worried. After all, Taowu now possessed [Unrivaled] and [Chaotic Power], and his combat power was only higher than that of his original body. As long as he didn't run into the Six Officials, even if he encountered any tricky situations, he could use [Shenyou] to escape. There was almost no dilemma that he couldn't solve.

Gudu Gudu~
On the stove next to the table, a small orange fire was quietly burning the casserole, and the seafood porridge inside wafted an enticing aroma. Ao Ling took out some pickled side dishes from the [Yulong Palace] and served them on a plate.

At this moment, a very light rouge color appeared in the east, like the juice of flower petals crushed by the sea breeze, smudged on the silk woven by the mist. Under the dark blue sky where the remaining stars have not yet faded, the clouds are cracked with fine golden lines, as if a big golden crow is flapping its wings and tearing open the endless night.

"I haven't had such a good sleep in a long time. It's really unlucky that Lao Jia and the others didn't come with me this time."

With his collar half open, Zheng Zhaomin showed off a little bit of his collarbone. He walked up to the observation deck, stretched his body, turned around and greeted Qin Huai, "Hey, Xiao Qin is back, how did you get?"

"It's worth the trip. There are many spiritual species in this huge sea, not only water beasts with extraordinary talents, but also great monsters with profound Taoism. The species are rich and are not inferior to some high-level fruits."

Qin Huai smiled and nodded, and responded. "It's normal. After all, it's a newly discovered fruit, and the stem-branch number is still in the evaluation period. When the exploration degree increases, the agents sitting in the office of the two types of gods will make adjustments based on the energy level of the fruit. By then, the number of this fruit will at least be ranked in the top 40."

Zheng Zhaomin is an old man who has been in Yanfu for a long time. He knows everything about the fruits of development and the subsequent processes. The information he casually revealed was something Qin Huai had not known before.

"High-level fruit? It is indeed worthy of its current performance."

Qin Huai thought about the two seven-palace monsters he encountered in less than a day's voyage, and he also agreed with Zheng Zhaomin's judgment.

"Hey, Miss Ling'er, your cooking skills are really amazing. After this incident is over, are you interested in sailing with us in Yehai?"

Zheng Zhaomin scooped out a bowl of seafood porridge with a spoon, took two sips, and praised it with a thumbs up.

"Hehe, Brother Zheng, just enjoy your meal. As for Ling'er, she still has to accompany Huailang. If the Moon Watching ship is indeed short of a chef who can cook spiritual food, Brother Zheng might as well suggest to Mr. Qin to go to the Nine Provinces to recruit a chef. With Mr. Qin's status and the splendor of the Three Thousand Yama, I'm sure even Chef Long would not be able to refuse this invitation."

Ao Ling blew on the white steam rising from the hot porridge in the bowl and then made a suggestion.

"【人·癸丑一】Okay, I'll go there when I have time and see if I can find a chef who is a beast-turned-spirit."

Zheng Zhaomin nodded and didn't care about Ao Ling's refusal.

"Brother Zheng wants to use the [Mountain God Temple] to bring the demon fairy chef out of the fruit?"

Qin Huai thought of the relevant information he had seen before and suddenly asked.

"That's right. After all, I can't waste a [Wish Stone] just for the sake of my appetite. Without the [Wish Stone], the Yamabu Walker who has not yet become the Five Elders can only use the ability of [Suijun Palace] and [Mountain God Temple] to subdue species and bring out the fruits from the natives of the relevant fruits."

"In other words, Elder Wufang can take the natives out of the fruit at will?"

Qin Huai keenly grasped the information revealed in Zheng Zhaomin's words and added another sentence.

"That's about right. Wufang Lao has a privilege called [Liberation], which allows them to suppress their quality and travel through any strange fruit without the help of Yanfu. If they are willing to spend some extra money, they can also use the [Liberation] privilege to bring the natives from one fruit to another."

Zheng Zhaomin scratched his head and continued, "For example, the Big Ben Laboratory of the Ghost Lord has many top scientific and technological talents that he has collected from different fruits. When Mr. Zhao leads the team on certain extremely dangerous missions, he will also ask some indigenous friends in the fruit for help in order to protect the low-lying walking. In general, in the eyes of Wufang Lao, there is actually no difference between having wings and not having wings."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

Listening to Zheng Zhaomin's explanation, Qin Huai thought of Qin An's previous operation of placing Ao Ling and Taiyue Gong in the [Tayin Toad Palace] and traveling back and forth between Ye Hai Fruit, and nodded secretly.

"Doesn't that mean that Ling'er's father can actually leave [Ren·Guichouyi]?"

"In theory, yes, but the natives who have achieved the Five Elders are basically too deeply and tightly bound to the Yamabu Fruit. Apart from those incense gods who have become immortals through the people's faith, it is basically difficult for others to get out of the fruit on their own."

Zheng Zhaomin lit a Cuban cigar, shrugged and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Miss Ling'er to see if what I said is true."

"Indeed, for thousands of years, my father has spent most of his time with several other immortals and demons to stabilize the connection between the stars in the sky of the Nine Realms, and he rarely returns to Jiuzhou. As for the vast world outside the fruit, I'm afraid my father is powerless."

Ao Ling nodded, which was considered as an indirect approval of Zheng Zhaomin's statement.

"So, [Liberation] is an upgraded version of [Spiritual Journey]?"

Qin Huai murmured in a low voice, making a presumptuous guess.

"No, no, the relationship between the two is not like progression, but more like parallel."

At this moment, a warm and deep voice sounded behind Qin Huai.

Qin An, playing with a nautical compass in his hand, came out of the cabin at some point and entered the attic.

After Qin An sat down in the main seat, he slowly told the three pairs of eyes what he understood: "At least from my personal experience, the [Liberation] authority also has many shortcomings, such as being unable to enter the fruit that has been picked, and being unable to place the original inhabitants of the fruit that has been taken out in another fruit for a long time, unless you stay with them all the time. Well, so this is why Su Ling has been staying at Big Ben all the time."

"But Ah Huai, your [Spiritual Wandering] is different. The mere fact that you can enter the fruits that others have already picked is inestimable in value."

"Eh, is that so? I don't remember ever using [Spiritual Wandering] to enter a fruit that had already been picked."

Qin Huai blinked, somewhat confused.

"Remember the fishing operation against Sifan? That little fruit in the middle of nowhere?"

Qin An waved his hand casually, and an irregular block stained with dead white suddenly appeared in the air: "This fruit has been picked by Sifan. Normally, if you want to get in, you either get the permission of the fruit owner and enter through the root channel; or make a few holes in the fruit wall and force your way in."

"Back then, Yuan Chao and the old man tore open the wall to enter the fruit, but I was at the end to cover them, and the method I used was different from theirs."

Qin An pointed to the reappearing Taiyin Toad Palace and said with a smile: "At that time, you were in my [Moon], and I suddenly had the idea to borrow your [Spiritual Wandering] to see what the difference was with [Liberation]. As a result, I penetrated directly into the wall system without opening the root channel or tearing the wall system apart."

"Mr. Qin, you are right. [Spiritual Wandering] does not need to rely on the root channel to travel into the Yamabu Fruit. But I never thought that [Spiritual Wandering] can also sneak directly into the fruit that has been picked."

Qin Huai smiled bitterly and did not ask Qin An how he borrowed [Spiritual Travel], but openly acknowledged the peculiar mechanism of [Spiritual Travel]'s action.

"That's because you're honest. If it were me, I would have gone to Zhenwu to secretly film Ninth Brother's romantic affairs and made a water mirror video of it to make a fortune."

Qin An laughed and patted Qin Huai's shoulder heavily.
