Chapter 1366 Immortal Meal
1366 Immortal Meal
With all the beasts killed, Lin Mu was now ready to cook them.
He started with the Fish beasts and sliced them up into fillets. Lin Mu also kept the bones on the side, as they could be refined into weapons or tools. He had the Weapon refinement methods from the Jing clan, that he could potentially use in the future.
If not that, he could always sell them off later in the future. He had an endless amount of storage space anyway, so it didn’t matter.
Having sliced the fish beasts, he sprinkled some spices and herbs on the fish steaks adding extra flavor.
~SIZZLE~
As soon as he put the large fish steaks on the grill, it started to sizzle loudly.
“Seems good enough…” Lin Mu then began with the next dish.
He took some of the herbs that Lanbao had given him and tasted them to check their flavor. He found some of the perfect for the stew and thus tossed them into the large boiling cauldron.
He also added some of the other spices he had to make it proper. Once that was done, he chopped up the Elephant Angler and put the meat in the cauldron as well. But he didn’t stop there.
There was still the third and final dish left, the crabs.
Lin Wu had already prepared the Crab beasts and was intending to steam them. In order to do so, he punched holes into another hundred tempered iron sheet. He then cut it into a circle that was just about the size of the cauldron and put it on top of it.
This was now his makeshift steamer that would use the steam from the stew below to cook. It would add extra flavor and make it better.
He put all the crab beast parts on it before placing the lid of the cauldron on top, closing it up.
“There we go, now to just wait a bit.” Lin Mu said and went to flip the fish steaks.
About half an hour later, the fish steaks were ready, and he set them aside.
‘If I cook them too long, they might become a bit tough.’ Lin Mu took care.
A few more minutes later, the steamed crab beasts were also ready and Lin Mu took them out of the steamer. From their previous dark green color, the crab shell had now become a vibrant mix of orange and red.
But that was all, as the tantalizing aroma from the stew had made it difficult for Lin Mu to hold back.
“I’ll just start! The stew will be done in a bit too.” Lin Mu began his meal with the Fish steaks.
Tearing large chunks of the flesh, he stuffed them into his mouth. With how soft the meat was, he didn’t even need to chew that much and it would simply melt in his mouth. What was about a few hundred kilograms of fish meat was finished in mere minutes.
Lanbao watched it all from the side feeling amazed.
‘Do all humans eat this much?’ Lanbao wondered.
She had seen beasts eat the amount that Lin Mu did but then their size was also a lot bigger than Lin Mu. It left her a little confused as to how Lin Mu was doing this.
‘I’ll ask him after he’s done… he seems really hungry…’ Lanbao thought.
Soon Lin Mu was finished with the fish steaks and started on the steamed crab.
~Crack~crack~crack~
Using his fingers like iron pliers, Lin Mu cracked apart the shell. This shell would have been strong enough to be used as armor, but in front of Lin Mu’s strength it was easy to break now.
When the crab beasts were alive, they could actively reinforce their defenses, but not anymore.
~slurp~
Rich juices dripped from the crab meat, but Lin Mu slurped it all up, not wasting anything. The taste was enough to get him entranced. He ignored the energy that was rising up from his stomach and let the Nameless technique of the Lost Immortal handle it all.
The meat was being rapidly processed in his stomach, faster than ever before. Not just that, but the number of obscure runes that were present on his stomach were also increasing rapidly.
Lin Mu didn’t pay attention to it though, simply focusing on eating more and more.
Ten minutes passed like this and the steamed crab was finished and a pile of crab shells were lying on the side. Storing it in the ring for now, Lin Mu turned his negation to the Cauldron.
~CLINK~
He opened the latch of the lid and lifted it.
~shua~
A burst of steam rose from it, filling the entire area with a rich aroma. It was a lot more intense than the last time when Lin Mu had opened it to remove the steamed crab. The stew in the cauldron was yellow, and red oil glistened on top of it.
Chunks of meat and bone floated in it, looking mesmerizing.
At this point, Lin Mu didn’t even care for the right utensil and directly picked up the hot cauldron. To him, the heat was not mentioning at all. He placed the cauldron’s edge on his lips and directly started gulping down the stew.
The meat chunks were also small enough that they were eaten up by Lin Mu at the same time.
~Crack~
~Crunch~
~Crack~
Even the bones were not spared as Lin Mu chowed down on them. They too were rich in nutrition and Lin Mu’s stomach could handle digesting them, too. Finishing the entire cauldron took Lin Mu the longest time out of all three dishes, as an entire hour passed before he was done with it.
~DENG~
He placed the cauldron back down and wiped the traces of oil from his face.
“Ahh~ that hit the spot!” Lin Mu felt rather content with the meal.
~SHUA~
His attention was quickly pulled to the energy storm that was forming within his belly, prompting him to sit down cross legged and chant the Calming heart sutra in the next moment.
