Secret realm.

The sky is as blue as a gem, with a few white clouds floating in it, changing their shapes slowly.

The warm sunshine shines unreservedly on the earth, warming the world and covering it with a layer of golden glow.

The entrance to the cave is half-hidden by lush vines, which wind down the stone walls of the cave, their leaves swaying gently in the breeze.

Outside the cave, a clear stream flows happily. The water is so clear that you can see the bottom, round stones and small fish swimming freely.

The sunlight poured down on the water, making the ripples sparkle like tiny pieces of gold. By the stream, several unknown wild flowers bloomed wantonly, with crystal dewdrops hanging on the colorful petals, which looked particularly gorgeous under the sunlight.

The breeze brings bursts of fresh floral and earthy scent, which is refreshing.

In the cave, Shangguan Jing, who had cleaned her body, was wearing a plain white robe. Her long hair was wet and draped behind her. A few strands of hair stuck to her cheeks, making her face look even whiter.

She slowly sat cross-legged on the cushion in the center of the cave, her eyes lightly closed and her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was trying hard to endure the pain of the demonic energy surging in her body.

Her hands were folded at her dantian, palms facing upwards, her posture was upright and revealed a sense of determination.

A faint fluorescent light flickered on the surrounding stone walls, faintly reflecting the figure of the girl.

She gritted her teeth and practiced her skills to try to dissipate the evil demonic energy bit by bit.

Zhang Chenting walked steadily into the cave, dragging a properly processed third-stage spirit sheep.

His footsteps were light and made no sound, obviously not wanting to disturb Shangguan Jing who was trying her best to recover from her injuries.

After reaching a more spacious corner of the cave, Zhang Chenting gently put down the spirit sheep, then reached out and touched it, and a storage ring shining with a faint light appeared on his finger.

As he thought about it, items flew out of the ring one after another and were neatly placed on the ground:

There are exquisite and sturdy grills, various brightly colored seasonings, some tools for grilling, and so on.

Then, Zhang Chenting skillfully lit a bonfire, placed the grill on it, and carefully placed the spirit sheep on the grill.

He kept turning the spirit sheep over with his hands to ensure that it was heated evenly, and at the same time he methodically applied various seasonings on it. Every movement seemed extremely skillful and natural, as if such a scene had been repeated countless times in his life.

Not long after, an extremely rich fragrance began to spread in the cave.

The fragrance is like an invisible ribbon, floating freely and penetrating every pore.

At this moment, Shangguan Jing, who had closed her eyes and concentrated on recovering from her injuries, suddenly smelled this tempting fragrance.

She opened her eyes involuntarily, her beautiful eyes rolled around, and she began to search for the source of the fragrance.

Soon, her eyes were fixed on the figure who was concentrating on roasting the lamb - Zhang Chenting.

Although high-level cultivators like them have long been able to abstain from food, who can truly resist the strong temptation of delicious food and fine wine?

"What are you doing? Why does it smell so good? Just the smell makes it sound delicious!"

Shangguan Jing could no longer suppress her inner curiosity and desire, so she immediately stopped practicing, stood up and walked quickly towards Zhang Chenting.

"This is the roasted whole lamb that my seventh brother meticulously developed! The taste is absolutely amazing, and it's undeniably delicious!

It's no exaggeration to say that across the vast Shenxuan Continent, apart from my seventh brother, there's no one else who can make roast lamb as delicious as I do!"

Zhang Chenting turned around with a look of pride, looked straight at Shangguan Jing beside him, and said confidently.

Shangguan Jing frowned slightly after hearing this, and was obviously skeptical. She questioned softly:

"Really? You sound a bit exaggerated, don't you? You have to know that the Shenxuan Continent is vast and boundless, and there are so many talented people. How can you be so sure that no one can roast lamb better than you?"

Zhang Chenting's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile as he responded:

"Hehe, there's a reason for this! It's because I have an exclusive secret recipe that was personally passed down to me by my seventh brother!

You won’t understand even if I tell you. Wait until you taste it yourself and you’ll know what I’m saying is true.”

As time slowly passed, the seconds and minutes went by without stopping, and the originally lively spirit sheep was now completely roasted.

Zhang Chenting skillfully sprinkled a layer of red chili powder and fragrant pepper powder evenly on the surface of the roasted lamb.

Then he carefully tore off a juicy leg of lamb and handed it to Shangguan Jing. "Try it."

At this moment, Shangguan Jing was looking at the steaming lamb leg in front of her that was emitting bursts of tempting aroma. Her beautiful eyes had already flashed with excitement, and she couldn't wait to enjoy it.

So she stopped being reserved and polite and reached out to take the leg of lamb with grace and grace.

Although she had been waiting for a long time, as the daughter of a powerful family, she was still very well-mannered when eating.

She took a light bite of the lamb leg that was roasted until the skin was golden and crispy. With a "sizzle", the fat oozed out, and the tender meat inside had clear texture and was so tender that it melted in her mouth.

Her eyes widened instantly. She could feel that every fiber of the mutton was filled with the fragrance of spices and the aroma of charcoal fire.

The unique flavor of cumin, the hot and pungent taste of chili peppers, and the mellow and fatty aroma of the lamb itself blend perfectly to form a rich and harmonious taste layer that constantly jumps and extends on the tip of the tongue.

At this moment, my body seemed to be injected with vitality, my muscles relaxed, and my mood became happy and relaxed, as if all the stress and fatigue were dissipated along with the delicious roasted whole lamb.

All that remains is the comfort and happiness after being healed by delicious food, which makes people unable to help but savor it and indulge in the wonderful taste on the tip of their tongue.

Then she kept repeating the previous action until she finished eating the whole leg of lamb.

"This is so delicious!" Shangguan Jing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise as she tasted the tender and juicy roasted lamb.

The smooth texture seems to dance on the tip of the tongue, and every bite is intoxicating.

When the roasted lamb is slowly swallowed down the throat, the rich meaty aroma still lingers between the lips and teeth, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

"This... this is simply the best taste in the world!"

Shangguan Jing was so excited that she was a little incoherent. She racked her brains to find more words to praise the delicious taste of the roasted lamb leg, but she found that words seemed so pale and powerless at this moment.

At this moment, Zhang Chenting, who was standing by, heard Shangguan Jing's praise for the roasted lamb leg and said proudly:

"Of course! This was invented by my unparalleled genius, Seventh Brother."

Zhang Chenting's face was full of admiration, with a gleam in his eyes.

Shangguan Jing looked at Zhang Chenting and couldn't help but feel curious, so she asked again:

"Is your seventh brother really that amazing? Is he even more talented than you? If I'm not mistaken, you shouldn't be more than a hundred years old.

But now your cultivation has reached the early stage of the spiritual realm, which is not something that ordinary people can achieve."
