From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 647 Southern Sea Sword Embryo
It can only be said that this innate fire spirit was unlucky to encounter Li Yang. There were people throughout the Purgatory Valley who had designs on these fire crows, but they all dared not offend them due to the pressure from the Grand Elder.

The fire crow's vibrant plumage and beak had long been plucked clean by Li Yang, leaving it completely naked and resembling an ordinary free-range chicken.
A three-meter-long body is too much to eat, and ordinary weapons are useless against it. So Li Yang simply took out the Nanming Sword and cut the fire crow open. To Li Yang's surprise, the fire crow had all its internal organs, but they were incredibly clean, with not a single filth in its intestines.

"That's true. This kind of innate fire spirit grows in magma. What kind of filth can remain unburned by such high temperatures?"

"Presumably, this fire crow, like the cultivators in the human world, is already inhaling and exhaling the fire energy from the magma, and does not need to eat."

Li Yang was amazed. This saved him a lot of trouble. He used the red Nanming Sword to cut the Fire Crow in half, then cut it into pieces, and put most of it into his storage ring.

Since absorbing a large number of fragments of bells and tripods from the Crimson Flame Upper Palace beneath the Great Li Imperial Palace, the Nanming Sword's color has changed from blue-gold to crimson-gold.

"Qiang!"

The sword struck the fire crow's claw, and the Southern Sea Sword was violently shattered, sending sparks flying.
The fire crow's claws resembled those of a dragon, covered in dense crimson scales that could easily tear through iron and stone. Li Yang had used brute force alone, yet he was unable to cut through them.

"It's time to sharpen the Southern Sea Sword..."

Li Yang pondered to himself that the Nanming Sword was still only a semi-finished product and had not yet been sharpened. In fact, it could only be considered a sword blank. However, since the sword was forged, Li Yang had been busy with one thing after another and had no time to sharpen it.

However, given the current level of growth of the Nanming Sword, how to sharpen it has become a headache for Li Yang. Having absorbed a large amount of materials, the Nanming Sword is no longer in the state it was when it was reforged; it is too hard.

After infusing spiritual energy, Li Yang slashed down again with great force, and with a clang, this time he finally severed the fire crow's claws.

"Innate Fire Spirit, I've never tasted anything this good before..."

After a short while, Li Yang deftly used a fire to grill a piece of chicken wing that had been chopped off, and the glistening, translucent chicken meat immediately emitted a fragrant aroma.

While roasting, they rubbed salt and honey onto the chicken wings. The chicken wings began to glow as they were roasted over the fire, and the entire palace was filled with a fragrant aroma.

After being roasted over a fire for half an hour, the chicken wings turned golden and glistening with oil, radiating auspicious luster. The sizzling sound of the oil dripping into the fire made Li Yang's mouth water, and his long-dormant appetite was rekindled.
When it's almost done roasting, I used the Nanming Sword to cut off a piece of glistening meat. The honey was sticky, and after taking a bite, my mouth was filled with fragrance. It melted in my mouth and was so delicious that it made my mouth water.

"It's so delicious!" Li Yang immediately tore off another large piece of meat with his hands. The honey stretched into thin, glistening threads, and the meat was a vibrant red color and incredibly fragrant.
Li Yang roasted about five pounds of fire crow wings, then grilled them for another hour, forming a crispy skin on the surface of the fire crow wings, filling the air with a fragrant aroma that made them even more tempting.

Li Yang's eyes lit up immediately, and he almost bit his tongue as he gulped it down.

The taste is secondary; the key is the fire energy and fire crow essence it contains. After just a few bites, one's body glows, feels unbearably hot, and an incredibly abundant spiritual energy washes over every part of the body.

This fire crow is an innate fire spirit, its entire body is a divine treasure, even its saliva is the fiery marrow that countless fire cultivators would flock to, let alone its flesh and blood.
Li Yang's eyes flashed with divine light. This one fire crow was enough to replace several months of his arduous meditation!
Half an hour later, with his belly round and face flushed, countless divine rays of light burst forth from Li Yang's pores into the surrounding air. Having replenished himself so much, Li Yang naturally couldn't waste it. He immediately sat down cross-legged and began to circulate the "Extreme Dao Treasure Mirror" to refine the essence of the fire crow.

After meditating for only half an hour, Li Yang's expression suddenly changed, and the "Ultimate Path Treasure Mirror" he was using disappeared.

"My husband, how cruel you are! You'd rather sit here in this cave in misery than come to find me!"

"Sometimes I wonder if you've become a different person, my husband."

A mournful, melodious voice came from outside the cave, and then the cave door was opened directly, and a bewitching woman dressed in feathered robes swaggered in.

Li Yang's heart stirred, but his expression remained calm: "My cultivation has fallen, and I am now only a Human Immortal. I don't want to end up like those furnaces, being sacked up by Nanfeng like trash."

Hearing the sarcasm in Li Yang's words, Wu Qiye wasn't annoyed. She smiled sweetly, "My husband is joking. How could I treat you like those toys? Although I'm skilled at absorbing yang to replenish yin, I'm also proficient in reversing yin to replenish yang. I was hoping to give you a good time~" "Hmph!" Li Yang's face turned cold. It would be strange to believe the words of such a vixen.

Even if it were true, how precious is the primordial yang of True Lord Baiyun? How could he willingly degenerate and waste it on others?

"I need to recuperate and go into seclusion. If there's nothing else, you should leave."

Li Yang was on guard and immediately ordered the guests to leave.

"Whether he's recuperating in seclusion or has other matters to attend to, I think only my husband knows the truth."

Wu Qiye smiled charmingly, then gently wiped the oil stains on the ground with her fingers, put them to her red lips, and looked at Li Yang with a playful expression.

"I don't know what you're talking about... hiccup!"

A loud burp, accompanied by a fiery red divine light, burst forth from Li Yang's mouth, plunging the hall into a deathly silence.

Wu Qiye shook her head, her eyes filled with disbelief: "My husband has truly impressed me. You actually had such courage after going to the ancestral star."

Li Yang remained silent for a moment, then slowly looked up at Wu Qiye: "What do you intend to do?"

"I was just reminding my husband to be careful. That elder is usually very petty and narrow-minded. If he catches you, it will be a big problem."

As she spoke, Wu Qiye winked at Li Yang, then took out a white jade gourd and handed it to him.

"This is a purification gourd. It will automatically purify the air in the cave when it is placed in the cave. Otherwise, people will be able to smell it."

Li Yang frowned: "What do you want?"

Ten minutes later, Wu Qiye left the cave with the fire crow's feather, completely satisfied.

Li Yang watched Wu Qiye's departing figure, his mind racing with thoughts.

Although he didn't know what the relationship between Wu Qiye and Yan Jin was like before, he could sense that this Danyu Immortal Lord was acting very strangely.

"They probably didn't recognize me. At worst, I'll just avoid them in the future."

"The formation of this cave is still too poor, allowing anyone to enter at will. It still needs to be reinforced."

Li Yang pondered, his mind gradually calming down as he refined the essence of the fire crow.

Li Yang had a huge appetite, and a week later, he had devoured the Fire Crow, leaving not even a bone behind.

With the support of numerous rare and precious elixirs, Li Yang's cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, and he increasingly saw the dawn of reshaping his Earth Immortal Dao Fruit.
