"You mean, if I want to activate the new functions of the God of War system, I must accept the summons of the Thorn Bird?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Yes." The system said.
"That's good," Gu Qingshan laughed. "If you go to help, you can not only obtain the thorn bird's treasures, but also improve your abilities. This is a good thing."
"You are wrong." The system said seriously.
"What's wrong?"
"The thorn bird is an extraordinary and strange creature, and the world it can treasure is by no means ordinary."
"Whenever something goes wrong in such a precious world, the Thorn Birds will first deal with it themselves."
"If it doesn't deal with it on its own and instead starts looking for outside help, then such a world must contain unimaginable dangers."
Gu Qingshan nodded.
This does make sense.
The system continued: "In addition, in order to obtain the Thorn Bird's treasure, large-scale fighting is likely to break out among all participants - countless histories have proven this."
The smile on Gu Qingshan's face completely disappeared.
After thinking about it for a moment, he understood the danger.
"The Thorn Birds don't care about the fighting between the participants?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"Survival of the fittest is the law of nature, and the Thorn Birds recognize this."
"This matter... is not simple." Gu Qingshan murmured in a low voice.
"Yes, the thorn bird is a magical creature in the strange area. Even the top experts dare not offend it easily."
"Please take it seriously."
"Okay, I will be extremely careful after I go." Gu Qingshan said.
"No, you have no way to go yet."
"Why?"
"All creatures in the 900 million world level are qualified to respond to the call of the thorn bird, but you are a person from sporadic worlds outside the 900 million world level."
"People in the sporadic world can't answer its call?"
"Yes, you must obtain a generally recognized official identity in a world among the nine billion world layers before you can respond to its call."
"Generally acknowledged?"
"Yes, only in this way will the world accept you, connect with you, and assume that you are a member of the world."
"...How can it be considered universally recognized?"
"At least one-third of the people in the world recognize your identity."
Gu Qingshan thought about it carefully and suddenly became enlightened.
You must obtain official status before you can answer the call of the thorn bird!
Apart from the current Iron Fist Club of Justice, I have never been to any other world. It is not easy to obtain an official status in a strange world!
No wonder the system asked him to find a way to stay here, and after he was granted residency for a day, asked him if he wanted to go back or stay.
There are only two people in the Justice Iron Fist Club.
This is the easiest extra-dimensional world to acquire an identity in a short period of time.
——How many secrets does the system know?
Gu Qingshan closed his eyes and thought for a long time.
Becoming a member of the Iron Fist Club of Justice... But neither Barry nor Xiao Miao wanted to bring anyone else together to shoulder the debt.
While he was thinking, all the lights in the club went out.
Barry grabs a monster's leg and drags it out of the club.
"Look at today's harvest." Barry said proudly.
He threw the monster in front of Gu Qingshan and Xiaomiao.
Xiaomiao immediately stopped writing.
She jumped down from the chair and looked at the monster excitedly.
The powerful devil named "The Destroyer" who once destroyed three thousand civilized worlds was lying on the ground like a dead dog.
"Is this the big devil?"
Xiao Miao asked, poking the monster with the pen.
The monster remained motionless.
This monster doesn't look like a devil, but rather like some kind of wild boar.
The only difference is that its legs are much thicker than those of a wild boar.
No matter who you look at it, they will think of the word "ham".
Xiao Meow walked around the monster.
Barry asked: "Is this really edible?"
"Legend has it that this thing is edible," Xiao Miao said: "Shopkeeper Cheng from Mei Geng Kitchen said that a powerful devil must have a piece of meat on his body, which is top-notch food. Eating it is a great supplement..."
Barry and Xiao Miao looked at each other and swallowed.
Gu Qingshan looked at this scene extremely speechless.
He suddenly understood something.
Maybe the space monster that gave the brother and sister diarrhea for several days was also captured and dealt with in this way.
"Gu Qingshan, do you think this thing is edible?" Xiao Miao turned around and asked.
Gu Qingshan looked at the wild boar.
- No, devil.
This wild boar devil is already in a dying state.
Gu Qingshan's heart moved.
He stepped forward and reached out to grab the Earth Sword from the void.
"Okay, let me take a look."
Gu Qingshan said and waved his sword.
The heavy sword struck the devil's soft throat, but it jumped back.
Gu Qingshan slashed with all his strength, but he couldn't kill the dying devil!
Dijian immediately sent a message to Gu Qingshan: "This is a powerful devil. You must inject all your soul power into my body before you can cut his neck."
"Okay!" Gu Qingshan said without hesitation.
Barry looked on and asked, "Do you need me to take action?"
"I'll try again." Gu Qingshan said.
I saw an invisible wind lingering around Gu Qingshan, and finally converged on the long sword.
The Earth Sword made a buzzing sound.
It's ready to go.
Gu Qingshan originally had 1,100 soul points left, but now they were all used up.
Barry and Xiao Miao both had expressions on their faces.
Unexpectedly, the original power in this boy was not his real ability.
It turns out that his true ability requires soul power.
Soul power...is a kind of original power.
When one's realm is so low, one can activate and use soul power.
From this point of view, aside from cooking and bartending, we need to re-evaluate this guy.
The brother and sister looked thoughtful.
"If you want to eat it, you have to process it immediately after slaughtering it, otherwise the ingredients will become stale very quickly."
Just listen to what Gu Qingshan said.
The earth sword cut fiercely.
puff!
Necks slit, heads separated.
The pig devil was killed.
On the God of War operation interface, several lines of small firefly characters immediately popped up.
"Your soul power has been completely consumed."
"Beyond countless levels, you actually killed the powerful devil named the Destroyer."
"You gained an excessive amount of soul power from the Destroyer."
"The soul power of this devil is too huge, and the God of War system is calculating the detailed value."
"Tip: With such a huge soul power, you will be able to immediately improve your realm and understand the Taiyi Sword Formation."
"Excuse me, have you started to improve your realm?"
Gu Qingshan grabbed the devil's head and said silently: "Now is not the time. I need some soul power to activate the secret of synchronization of all living beings to explore this guy's body structure."
The system said: "Exploring the mystery of the devil's body structure requires 10,000 soul power points, which has been deducted from the extraordinary soul power obtained."
"If you want to become this devil, you will spend all your extraordinary soul power."
Gu Qingshan immediately said: "I only explore, I don't have to become it."
"Understood, 10,000 points of soul power have been paid."
Gu Qingshan grabbed the devil's head and closed his eyes.
In a moment, he had a complete understanding of the devil's body structure.
He discovered some magical cuts of meat that were actually edible.
Turning the wild boar devil over, Gu Qingshan stared at the wild boar devil's body.
He discovered a natural rune formed by the laws of purgatory.
The rune covered a large portion of the devil's ribs.
Gu Qingshan squatted down and cut off the rib with his sword.
On the God of War interface, lines of small firefly characters appeared one after another.
"The weak rib steak of the devil in hell."
"One of the excellent ingredients in the world of Purgatory. After proper cooking and heating, eating it will greatly enhance your physique."
“It’s a pretty rare ingredient that’s evocative and nutritious.”
"You have used the secret of the Harmony of All Beings to understand the nature of this piece of meat. With your cooking skills, you should know how to handle it."
Gu Qingshan slowly stood up while holding the piece of meat.
"This - is it edible?" Barry asked uncertainly.
"Hold on."
Gu Qingshan took a breath and entered the most focused state.
Charcoal grilled beef ribs is his specialty.
But this is not beef, it is pig—the devil’s ribs.
Even though he already understood all the properties of this cut of meat, roasting a devil still presented an unprecedented challenge.
Gu Qingshan patted the storage bag and took out a complete set of cooking utensils.
He thought carefully for a while, until all the details were settled, and then he started to process the ingredients.
Barry and Xiao Miao watched quietly without saying a word.
They could feel the seriousness and earnestness of Gu Qingshan.
Half an hour later.
A soaring aroma enveloped the entire Justice Iron Fist Club.
"How long until we can eat it?" Barry asked drooling.
“Bake for one last minute!”
Gu Qingshan kept flipping the barbecue steaks with his hands and replied in his mouth.
Suddenly, there was a loud "Peng" sound around several people.
A burly man wearing an apron suddenly appeared.
"Shopkeeper Cheng!" Barry said with a change of expression.
This person actually appeared. It seemed that Gu Qingshan's charcoal grilled ribs was extraordinary.
The burly man in an apron stared intently at the steak, then looked at Gu Qingshan.
"It's okay! It's okay! I didn't waste this precious ingredient." He said happily.
Immediately afterwards, he shouted loudly: "Barry, give me this piece of ribs, and our debt will be settled."
As he said that, the burly man reached out to grab the steak.
"Don't even think about it!" Barry yelled.
He immediately swung a punch and hit it in the void.
A big hole opened in the void.
Like an eagle catching a chicken, Barry picked up the big man and threw him into the big hole in the void.
"Bastard Barry, I curse you to be a cosmic monster who can only eat raw for the rest of your life!" The big man roared unwillingly.
"If that's the case, I'll let you eat first!"
Barry shot back not to be outdone.
He grabbed both ends of the void hole with both hands and pulled hard towards the middle.
The big hole immediately closed and disappeared.
When Barry finished all this, Gu Qingshan's Devil's Ribs was finished.
Gu Qingshan divided the whole piece of meat into three parts.
Barry, Xiao Miao, Gu Qingshan, one each.
"Can I eat it?" Xiao Miao asked.
Gu Qingshan sprinkled the last bit of seasoning on the barbecue.
"That's it," he said.
The three of them were carrying barbecue steaks.
Gu Qingshan did not move.
Xiao Meow was still smelling the aroma of the steak.
There was silence.
Barry spoke first.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"
Barry raised his head suddenly, his eyes filled with tears.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Xiaomiao asked nervously.
“So hot!!!”
Barry wiped his tears and said.
Gu Qingshan said speechlessly: "It's just baked, you won't wait until it gets colder before eating it."
The three of them waited for a while.
Barry spoke again.
"It's so delicious. Am I dreaming when I can eat such delicious food? Who's going to wake me up!!!!" Barry roared loudly.
Xiaomiao was relieved when he saw this.
She no longer hesitated.
Began to eat!
Xiao Miao took a few mouthfuls, but then she began to wipe her tears silently.
"Why? Why did I feel a refreshing sadness at the last moment I ate it?" Xiao Miao murmured.
"Because I sprinkled a thin layer of garlic paste at the end." Gu Qingshan explained.
"No! I also know some cooking, but if I just mince garlic, I will never reach this level!!!" Xiao Miao knocked on the plate and said.
"Then listen carefully, my minced garlic is soaked in vinegar - this is an exclusive secret recipe, I hope you don't spread it to others." Gu Qingshan whispered.
"That's it!" Xiao Miao sighed.
Three mouths, three steaks, ten seconds.
The meal is over.
Gu Qingshan felt it.
This piece of meat is amazing, his body is getting stronger!
Such a body is already close to the realm of martial arts at the same level.
It’s so amazing. Sure enough, there are billions of worlds that cannot be guessed at all with the inherent thinking of the cultivation world.
Barry also stayed there, feeling a little lost.
This piece of meat does play a very good role in the body.
He felt like his injuries were healing faster.
"Kitten."
"What?"
"Let's move."
"Are you crazy? Where do you want to move?"
"Purgatory."
