It wasn’t just the young cultivators sitting on the eighteen thousand personal master seats that were excited, even, the geniuses sitting on the three thousand heavenly pride seats were all quite red-eyed.
Who didn’t wish, for their physique, to become even more powerful?
Who didn’t wish, to reach the heights of a Saint Body?
Even, some Half Saint Ancestors, were also licking their lips non-stop, quite greedy, but unfortunately, they were not guests of the Boundary Son Banquet at all, so they were not qualified to taste the Six Saints Ascending to Heaven Wine, and could only look on and sigh.
“I’m afraid it’s only the imperial court that can come up with so much Six Sacred Ascension Wine at once.”
“It is said that the Empress killed a Beast Emperor before obtaining seven large vats of Six Sacred Ascending Heavenly Wine from that Beast Emperor’s lair. Over the past three hundred years, the Empress has rewarded the Six Sacred Ascending Heavenly Wine many times to the court’s meritorious ministers, and there wasn’t much left over in the first place. I’m afraid that this Boundary Son Banquet has already taken out all the remaining Six Sacred Ascending Heavenly Wine, and in the future, it will be almost impossible to still drink it.”
“With the Six Sacred Ascending Heavenly Wine quenching their physiques, the physiques of the eighteen thousand Human Jie will surely climb a large chunk again, and it will only make the overall strength of the entire Kunlun Realm Human Race, even stronger.”
“Hosting the Boundary Son Banquet is entirely a feast to revitalise the future of the Human Race. A hundred years from now, the geniuses at tonight’s Boundary Son Banquet, when they grow up completely, will surely all be hegemons on one side, and will become the most stalwart force in the Kunlun Realm.”
All the human geniuses, all of them couldn’t wait and took the Six Sacred Ascension Wine, swallowed it, and began to refine and absorb it.
The Sacred Book Talented Lady nodded her head in satisfaction, and immediately after, raised her voice again, “Heavenly Pride Seat, Meat Feast.”
Finally, it was the turn of the Heaven’s Pride Seat, and everyone became very excited and quite curious as to what treasures the three thousand Heaven’s Pride would be savouring.
It must be even more precious than the Six Sacred Ascension Wine.
Underneath the Book Mountain, each Barbarian Elephant Half Man in armour picked up a four-foot tall bronze tripod, ascended the Book Mountain, and placed the bronze tripods in front of each of the three thousand Celestial Pride.
Among them, one of the Celestial Pride couldn’t suppress the curiosity in his heart, and in the first instance, he uncovered the lid of the bronze cauldron, and instantly, a nine-coloured flame surged out of the cauldron, emitting an astonishing amount of heat.
“Wow–”
At the same time, an aroma of meat, also gushed out, permeating the entire Book Mountain.
Only to see that at the bottom of the bronze tripod, there was a fist-sized piece of meat that appeared crystal clear, and the flames and meat fragrance emanated from is meat.
Just by smelling the aroma of the meat, the crowd was already gulping saliva and making “gurgling” sounds in their mouths.
To know, as long as to reach the first change of fish and dragon “innate foetal breath”, the cultivator will be able to self-serve internal qi, to true qi as food, completely cut off the earth, to achieve the realm of grain.
However, the meat in front of him, just the fragrance that emanated from it, was so fascinating that it completely triggered one’s appetite.
“Exactly what kind of meat is it, how can it smell so refreshing?”
“I feel that the meat contains very large amounts of energy, could it be the meat of a sacred beast?”
……
Hearing the words “meat of a Saint Beast”, everyone was shaken, their eyes surging with eagerness.
When a savage beast was cultivated to the Saint realm, it was like a sacred medicine of flesh and blood, and its entire body was a treasure.
If one was able to eat a piece of meat from a Saint Beast, not only would one be able to live a longer life, but one would also be able to temper one’s physique and enhance one’s cultivation, which would have endless benefits.
The Sacred Book Talented Lady, however, smiled faintly and said: ”The meat of a sacred beast, how can it be placed on the Boundary Son Banquet? The meat in front of everyone’s eyes is the meat of the ‘Sacred Flame Qilin Emperor’ of the Barbarian Desolate Mysterious Realm of yesteryear.”
The meat of a beast emperor?
It wasn’t just the three thousand Celestial Pride that was frozen in shock.
Everyone present, including the saints in Divine Platform City, all of them sucked in a breath of cool air.
A Beast Emperor, if it was in the human frontier, would be an existence like a great emperor, and even if it was just a drop of blood, it would be a treasure that even Saints would want to grab.
However, what was in front of them was not a drop of blood, but a tripod of meat.
Not to mention a cauldron, even if it was just a piece of meat, it contained at least tens of drops of blood.
Zhang Ruochen also sucked in a breath of cool air, his heart quite shocked.
One must know that he was able to break through from the Fish Dragon First Transformation to the Fish Dragon Second Transformation by just refining a single drop of the Green Flame Xuanwu’s blood. The blood of a beast emperor was many times more powerful than the blood of a Greenflame Xuanwu.
From this, it could be seen that a piece of Beast Emperor’s meat, how precious was that?
Although, the three thousand Celestial Pride trembled with excitement, they thought of another problem. With their cultivation levels, even just refining a single drop of the Beast Emperor’s blood was not an easy task.
If they were to, in one go, eat a piece of Beast Emperor’s meat, or even a tripod of Beast Emperor’s meat, would they hold up?
The Sacred Book Talented Lady seemed to see the concerns in the hearts of the crowd and said, “The meat of the Sacred Flame Unicorn Emperor is cooked by the palace’s imperial chef through eighteen special ancient secret methods, so you can all feel free to savour it.”
“The Nine-coloured Holy Flame cultivated by the Sacred Flame Qilin is itself a supreme treasure for tempering the physique, with the Six Sacred Ascension Wine, it has the same effect.”
“If, your own physique is strong enough, and you eat enough Qilin meat, it is enough to raise your physique to a level comparable to a Saintly Physique. And there is also a great chance that you can cultivate some special powers that only the Holy Flame Qilin has, such as, Qilin Eyes, Qilin Ears, Qilin Arms, Qilin Bones, and Qilin Sacred Souls …… Anyway, how high you can achieve depends on your own chances.”
The words of the Sacred Book Talented Lady, before she had even finished speaking, the three thousand Celestial Pride had already begun to wolf down their food, and in the mouths of all of them, barfing noises were emitted, as if they were trying to swallow their tongues.
The rules of the meat banquet were the same as the wine banquet.
The higher the place one made, the more Holy Flame Qilin meat one received, especially for the Celestial Pride sitting in the top ten positions, all of them had a large cauldron full of meat in front of them.
After only a few moments passed, a woman in purple sitting on the third heavenly pride seat, her pupils turned the colour of nine colours, and two pillars of light surged out, piercing through the night and extending all the way to a hundred miles away.
Swallowing the Sacred Flame Qilin meat, she had unexpectedly cultivated into nine-coloured Qilin pupils.
At the same time, inside her body, a muffled sound was emitted, and her entire body radiated bright holy light, wrapping her in the centre as if she were a silk cocoon, causing every inch of her skin to become crystal clear and flawless.
With the help of the enormous power contained in the Holy Flame Qilin meat, the woman in purple broke through to the Half-Saint realm in one fell swoop, transforming a fish into a dragon, and from then on, she would no longer be a mortal but a Half-Saint of honourable status, and would be admired and worshipped by countless people.
Moreover, she had only absorbed less than one-thousandth of the Qilin’s blood qi, and the rest of the Qilin’s blood qi, all of which was stored within her body, would be released continuously.
It could be imagined that in the years to come, as she absorbed the rest of the Qilin blood qi, her cultivation speed would definitely be quite astonishing, and she would soar high in the Half-Saint realm.
Of course, it wasn’t that after swallowing the Sacred Flame Qilin Meat, everyone would be able to break through to the Half-Saint realm in one fell swoop, the Sacred Flame Qilin Meat only played a supporting role.
In reality, the woman in purple had already cultivated to the peak of the Ninth Transformation of the Fish Dragon as early as a dozen years ago, and her comprehension of the Saint Dao had also reached a rather high level.
Therefore, swallowing the Sacred Flame Qilin Meat had only allowed her accumulation of over ten years to explode out in an instant, thus, breaking through the realm in one fell swoop.
Cultivators who were able to sit on the Heaven’s Pride Seat were all first-class geniuses, and eight/nine out of ten of them were at the peak of the Ninth Transformation of the Fish and Dragon, just one step away from breaking through to the Half-Saint realm.
The threshold of “Half-Saint” was too high, which blocked them from the outside, and their cultivation level stagnated, never able to break through. Some of them had already reached the Ninth Transformation of the Fish Dragon thirty years ago, but they were still at the same place.
Swallowing the Sacred Flame Qilin meat was like taking a strong dose of medicine, finally allowing all of them to break through to the Half-Saint realm one after another.
“Finally breaking through the Half Saint realm, from now on, the sky is high and the sea is wide, let me roam, where else in the entire Kunlun Realm am I not allowed to go?”
“Haha! I’ve also broken through to the Half-Saint realm, my lifespan has increased greatly, I’ll be able to live for at least two hundred and forty years, and my entire person seems to be much younger. Returning to the Red Liang Mansion, I have also sent people to build a great deal of holy temples to enshrine my holy statue, absorbing the incense of millions of people with my holy soul.”
“For twenty years, I have been trapped in the ninth change of the fish and dragon, I had already given up hope, but I really didn’t expect that I would actually make a breakthrough in one fell swoop this night, and my path of the holy way has finally turned over a new page.”
……
Just half an hour had passed, and of the three thousand heavenly prides, there were more than three hundred of them, condensing their holy souls and breaking through to the Half-Saint realm.
One moment, it was still just mortals.
The next moment, already half-saints.
It could be imagined that with the passage of time, within half a year, at least a thousand heavenly prides would reach the Half-Saint realm. Just thinking about it was quite mind-blowing.
Compared to a Half Saint, a cultivator of the Ninth Transformation of the Fish Dragon, whether it was his status or his own strength, it was all a world of difference and could not be compared to the same thing.
Moreover, after the three thousand Celestial Pride had swallowed the Sacred Flame Qilin meat, their own physiques had all reached a level comparable to that of a Sacred Body.
Of course, there was still a small gap between them and a true Saint Body.
Because a true Saint Body possessed a “Saint Body Dharma Phase”, which was a huge advantage that the 3,000 Heavenly Pride did not possess. Only the Heavenly Pride who had cultivated the special power of the Sacred Flame Qilin was truly able to compete with the Sacred Body.
Even so, the three thousand heavenly prides that had broken through to the realm of the First Order Half-Saint were still able to become the top front-runners amongst the First Order Half-Saints, enough to contend with the Second Order Half-Saints.
With Zhang Ruochen’s current cultivation of the Fish Dragon Eighth Transformation, he might not be their match either.
After all, there was simply more than a realm gap between the Fish Dragon Ninth Transformation and a First Order Demi-Saint, it could be said that there was a heavenly difference that could not be compared to the same thing.
Huang Yichen’s eyes stared downwards, only to see that from time to time, someone from the three thousand heavenly pride seats had broken through to the Half-Saint realm, their entire body radiating an incomparably strong holy light.
She revealed a look of awe and said, “What a powerful Sacred Flame Qilin Meat, it actually created three thousand Heaven’s Pride Sons that are comparable to the Sacred Body level… If they are allowed to grow, how powerful will the Human Race be?”
The awe on Zhang Ruochen’s face had long since been collected, instead revealing a contemplative expression as he said, “What’s truly powerful isn’t the Sacred Flame Qilin Meat.”
