The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 473: Soul Enhancement
However, judging from Li Hao's skillful cooking skills, it is obvious that this is not the first time he has done this.

A guy who is at the third level of the True Immortal Realm but can dodge the attacks of the Immortal Lord Realm... Mi Xueyao looked at Li Hao deeply, then stood up and said, "Let's go, wait for me, don't try to get rid of me!"

Li Hao sat down cross-legged, glanced at her and ignored her.

Seeing Li Hao's look of being too lazy to pay attention, Mi Xueyao was used to it. She snorted in her heart and secretly released a secret technique on the spot. If Li Hao left, she would be able to track him down.

After Mi Xueyao left, Li Hao closed his eyes and devoted himself to refining the ancient demon's flesh and blood.

Strands of spiritual power seeped out from his flesh and blood, transformed into pure spiritual nourishment, and merged into his soul.

This ancient demon is definitely a great tonic for the soul, just like the dragon meat cooked in some taverns that can improve the physical body.

While Li Hao was refining, Mi Xueyao returned not long after. She casually cut open the space between heaven and earth, threw out half of the remains of the ancient demon, and said to Li Hao:

"There is no trace of the Ancient Demon Army around here. We can only pick up some debris."

Li Hao had almost finished refining and absorbing it. He opened his eyes, glanced at the debris on the ground, and said, "It doesn't matter. You're the one eating it anyway. I'll just charge you a little cooking fee."

"Cooking fee?"

Mi Xueyao was stunned.

Li Hao did not answer, but started to take in this half of the ancient demon, skillfully cut it open with Taowu, and grilled it over a low fire as before.

As the sizzling aroma of oil wafts away, the essence of the soul inside is also released by the cooking, bringing with it a refreshing flavor that can subtly enhance the soul with every breath.

Li Hao split it in half and threw it to Mi Xueyao, then took the other half and said, "This is the cooking fee, half of it belongs to me."

Mi Xueyao raised her eyebrows and said unhappily, "That's too much, I'll just give you one tenth."

"Then don't look for me next time, do it yourself."

Li Hao was too lazy to bargain.

Mi Xueyao was slightly choked and a little annoyed, but she had never touched these low-level arts, so how could she cook?

However, it was not her character to admit defeat just like that. Besides, she had been treated coldly by Li Hao along the way. After all, she was at the Immortal King level. Among the human race, did the real immortals treat the Immortal King level in the same manner?
"I'll do it myself. This time I'll give you a bargain!"

Mi Xueyao snorted coldly. She had seen Li Hao's cooking techniques and didn't think it was a big deal.

She is a genius in cultivation. Even something as difficult as cultivation can not stump her. How can a simple cooking be difficult for her?
She took the half piece of roast meat, cut it into small pieces, and then began to eat it slowly.

However, as the taste blossomed in her mouth, she couldn't help but eat faster, and the anger in her heart was slowly forgotten.

After she finished eating, she was suddenly surprised to find that the flesh and blood was slowly being refined and absorbed by her body.

Her spirit was actually slightly strengthened.

Mi Xueyao was a little shocked, her beautiful eyes widened slightly. She had heard of cannibalism, but she had never heard of anyone's soul being enhanced after killing each other.

With her status and position, if such a thing really existed, it would never be hidden from her. Even their ancient demon clan would never have been in a stalemate with the myriad clans in the real world. They would have cannibalized each other long ago and cultivated more royal families.

She looked at Li Hao in surprise and saw that Li Hao had already finished eating, faster than her, and was sitting cross-legged in meditation, as if he was practicing.

She suddenly understood why the other party had been able to dodge the attack of the ancient demon leader before.

You know, the ancient demon leader's attack contains terrifying spiritual power, which is definitely an instant kill for the True Immortal Realm, and there is no need to take any action at all.

But Li Hao is still alive and well, which shows that his soul is extremely powerful...

Wait, if the other party's soul is extremely powerful, then the range of his consciousness will be even greater, so wouldn't that mean...

Her expression changed slightly, and a hint of danger flashed in her eyes. Could it be that the other party already knew her identity?
If you knew, why would you dare to be with me...

Her mind was full of mixed thoughts and she remained silent.

Li Hao refined and absorbed half of the ancient demon, and his soul's golden veins increased by seven or eight, and his soul was improved again.

Previously on the Ancient Starry Road, most of the ancient demons he ate were of the Saint level, unlike now, which were all ancient demons of the True Fairyland. The spiritual power contained in their flesh and blood was stronger, and after being cooked by him, it could be absorbed by the body.

If you eat it raw, it will have no effect.

The next day.

Li Hao waited until yesterday's ancient demon was digested before cooking it again.

Seeing that Li Hao had no intention of sharing, Mi Xueyao took the initiative to go out and look for the ancient demon.

After Li Hao finished cooking, Mi Xueyao also returned.

She glanced at Li Hao, and this time she did not leave the ancient demon's corpse to Li Hao to deal with. Instead, she followed Li Hao's example and cut it into pieces. Then she condensed the Chaos Divine Fire from between heaven and earth, and slowly refined and roasted it.

Li Hao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw that the other party also used the Chaos Divine Fire. However, the Chaos Divine Fire alone could only turn raw things into cooked ones, which could only be considered a cooking technique.

Mi Xueyao was cooking and humming a little tune, feeling quite relaxed and contented. When she caught a glimpse of Li Hao's gaze, she raised a smile that seemed like a sneer and a joke, and said:
"You didn't expect that, did you? I'm proficient in the fifth level of the Fire Dao Origin of the Nine Sequences. Your Chaos Divine Fire is good, but I can learn it just by looking at it."

Li Hao's eyes were slightly raised. The fifth level of the origin of fire was considered quite rare even in the realm of Immortal King.

He looked indifferent and did not respond, just enjoying it by himself.

Mi Xueyao used the Chaos Divine Fire to cover all the remains of the ancient demon. She controlled the temperature skillfully and roasted every part of the body red.

It has to be said that she is extremely smart. Even though she has never cooked before, she can learn how to cook just by watching Li Hao cook.

Soon, when the ancient demon was cooked, she cut it into pieces, put it in front of her and started to eat it slowly.

However, as soon as she put it in her mouth, she frowned. The taste was unbearable and had a strong fishy smell.

She looked towards Li Hao and suddenly remembered that she had forgotten the seasoning.

"Um, can I borrow your seasoning?"

Mi Xueyao frowned.

Li Hao swallowed a mouthful of the ancient demon's flesh and blood and said calmly, "The seasoning fee is half."

"you!"

Mi Xueyao was angry, knowing that the other party would ask for an exorbitant amount of money.

Humph... She gritted her teeth, too lazy to pay attention to Li Hao, ignored her sense of taste, and ate in big mouthfuls.

It doesn't matter if it tastes bad, what matters is that it can enhance the power of the soul... She searches for the remains of the ancient demon mainly to enhance her soul.

If the situation had been the same as yesterday, she could hardly imagine to what extent her own spiritual power would have been improved after searching through thousands of ancient demon corpses!

After eating thousands of kilograms of flesh and blood, she closed her eyes with a cold face and began to refine the flesh and blood in her body.

She discovered that the ancient demon flesh and blood she cooked did not melt in the mouth, and she needed to push and refine it herself.

As she circulated her spiritual power, the flesh and blood gradually decomposed in her body, but soon, when it decomposed to a certain extent, it could no longer decompose. Moreover, during this process, not a single bit of spiritual power overflowed and merged into the body.

what happened?

Mi Xueyao was surprised and closed her eyes to feel it carefully, and found that it was still the same.

Her expression changed slightly. Could it be because of the seasoning?

She knew that if simply roasting the raw food and eating it could improve the soul, then someone in the ancient demon clan would definitely find out about it over the countless years and cause a sensation. "Well, I want your seasoning. Can I give you a third of it?"

Mi Xueyao opened her eyes and saw Li Hao eating meat with great enjoyment. She gritted her teeth in her heart but still showed a sweet smile on her face.

Li Hao said indifferently: "Half, no discussion."

Brat... Mi Xueyao clenched her fingers, wishing she could press the other person against her legs and crush him to pieces.

Her chest rose and fell slightly, and she said coldly, "Okay!"

Seeing this, Li Hao casually threw out the extra seasoning he had ground earlier and said, "This needs to be sprinkled during the grilling process so that it will seep in. It also needs to be marinated in advance. It's too late for you now."

"Humph."

Mi Xueyao was too lazy to pay attention to it. She just poured the seasoning on the freshly grilled meat and started eating.

But the taste of the seasoning was only on the surface. Although it tasted sweet at first, it still had a fishy smell when she chewed the meat. Her face changed slightly, but she still forced herself to swallow it along with the seasoning.

After a while, she tried to refine it again, but found that she failed again.

She looked unhappy and could only follow Li Hao's instructions, taking out the other uncooked half and starting to slowly marinate and grill it.

for a long time.

When she tried to eat it again, she found that it failed again.

But this time the smell was not so fishy.

What happened? She was furious and looked at Li Hao with gnashing teeth.

Li Hao had already eaten and drunk his fill. Seeing the other party's angry look, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly and said:
"Cooking is not as simple as you think. If you want to have a good meal, with your current cooking skills, you'll have to wait another ten years."

"Did you tamper with the seasoning?"

Mi Xueyao couldn't help but ask.

She clearly did everything according to Li Hao's method.

Hearing this, Li Hao rolled his eyes slightly and said, "If you doubt it, don't borrow from me again. Also, give me the other half. It's the seasoning fee."

Mi Xueyao was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she could do nothing about what Li Hao really did.

Fortunately, the corpses of the ancient demons were everywhere, so they were not a rare commodity for her. She threw the other half to Li Hao and said with a sullen face:

"Now can you help me make these the way you want to eat them?"

"It can't be done."

Li Hao shook his head: "You have already made this into a failure, wasting the ingredients. However, I can improve it slightly, but the taste will be worse."

"I don't care about the taste, the main thing is that I can absorb it."

Mi Xueyao pointed out Li Hao's secret directly with a cold face, "Your soul has become so strong because of eating this, right?"

Li Hao raised his eyebrows, but did not deny it. After all, the other party was enjoying his meal more. He did not believe that he would suddenly become furious and say something like he wanted to avenge his own people to deal with him.

Seeing that Li Hao agreed, Mi Xueyao thought to herself, as expected, and said nothing, waiting for Li Hao to do it.

Li Hao quickly cooked it for her, threw it to her and said, "Try it again. In addition, this part is my processing fee."

He took half of the opponent's half again.

Mi Xueyao was angry, but she still took the barbecue that Li Hao threw to her and started eating.

This time, as soon as she took a bite, she felt a huge difference, which was incomparable to her own. Moreover, as soon as it entered her stomach, she felt a weak spiritual power spreading out, penetrating into her own spirit, nourishing her soul.

Her eyes lit up, and when she turned around and saw Li Hao eating even more happily, her good mood disappeared immediately, and she said with a sullen face:

"Why is it that what you did can absorb the soul?"

“It’s a matter of craftsmanship.”

Li Hao said: "Your craftsmanship is too poor."

“Is there a skill for this?”

Mi Xueyao sneered contemptuously, believing that it was Li Hao who was behind it.

But after she said this, she suddenly felt a sharp gaze falling on her.

Her expression changed slightly, and she looked at Li Hao, only to see that the young human's eyes were more serious than ever before, with a sharp coldness, as he spoke word by word:

"Are you looking down on cooking? If you say that again, I won't cook anything for you anymore!"

Mi Xueyao was stunned, feeling absurd, but she could sense that the young man in front of her was angry. The anger in his eyes was like a swordsman's sword being insulted.

"Is it necessary to be so serious?" She frowned and said with a little stubbornness.

Li Hao stared at her, turned his head and said, "Don't underestimate anything, especially since you are still enjoying the delicious food brought by cooking, you should not underestimate it!"

Mi Xueyao was silent for a moment, but didn't say anything else.

In the next few days, Li Hao either went out to look for ancient demons or cooked for the ancient demons for practice.

Mi Xueyao, on the other hand, refused to believe in evil and borrowed Li Hao's seasonings and secretly learned Li Hao's cooking skills, but all ended in failure.

With her unremitting efforts, and after she compromised, Li Hao raised the cooking fee to 82 cents.

He is eight, and Mi Xueyao is two.

"You, you are so bullying!"

"You can say no."

"you!"

Mi Xueyao wanted to unleash her immortal power and use tough measures to force Li Hao to obey, but the residual power of the Buddha Emperor's Heart Tower that Li Hao had sacrificed earlier was still there, which made her feel hesitant.

With Li Hao's talent, he must be the top genius among the human race, and perhaps he has other protective treasures.

What's more, she still needs to use Li Hao to infiltrate the human race. With her current identity, it would be more dangerous to carry that thing in the ancient demon area.

Despite her constant nagging, Li Hao did not give in, and Mi Xueyao had no choice but to compromise.

She searched everywhere for the corpse of the ancient demon, while Li Hao was only responsible for cooking. After eating and drinking, she would practice, and after practicing, she would continue to cook and eat. Her life was so happy.

Under the soul's flesh and blood, Mi Xueyao's soul was also improved, and the speed was faster than her own cultivation.

She claimed to be the top evildoer among the ancient demons, and the ancient demons were good at cultivating their souls, and her cultivation speed was far beyond that of other royal families in the same realm. However, compared with this almost abnormal way of improving through eating, she still felt inferior.

Although Li Hao got most of it, as long as she recovered enough ancient demon remains, the daily growth rate of her soul would be several levels ahead of her own cultivation.

In this way, she could barely accept it, but seeing that Li Hao had improved more than her, she couldn't help feeling a little upset.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
