High-quality ingredients often only require simple cooking.
With an elegant smile on his lips, Wu Huan kept flipping the grill in front of him. The two tender meats on it, taken from the legs of the thousand-year-old ferocious beast, were making a faint sound.
Senior Shennong sat aside with a gloomy expression and turned to look at the old man and the woman in black who were hanging upside down within the boundary of the Daughter's Kingdom thousands of miles away.
"If you hadn't stopped me just now, Wuwu, I would have rushed back to the human realm tonight!
How long will this be peaceful? They are so arrogant, arrogant and domineering, but they still give me a special license to eliminate demons and defend the law!
Lead by example, teach by words and deeds!
I thought that Sihai Pavilion was not rotten to the core, but now I know that the problem is so difficult! "
"Senior, calm down, calm down," Wu Wan advised warmly, "It's not your turn to take action on this matter."
Shennong immediately cast a look of relief.
Wu Huan immediately changed his mind: "You can just arrange for a few generals to be stationed in Sihai Pavilion, and it will be solved."
"Sigh," Shennong shook his head and said, "There's no need to worry so much. Later, after I have solved the most important matters, I can return to the human realm and straighten out the internal affairs."
"Senior, did you find what you were looking for?"
"I just got a few clues," the old man said with a smile, his eyes reflecting the firelight, "Did you know that the last time I sent you to the Women's Country, I was preparing to see you again after you became an immortal.
I never thought that you would do something like this in the women's country, which is really surprising.
Belief in becoming a god, the conditions of the women's country are indeed unique... Wuwu, how did you come up with such an idea in such a short period of time? Could it be that your mother Cang Xue had this intention a long time ago? "
Wu Wang:......
"Ah, yes, I don't know anything about concentrating my thoughts to become a god. I learned it all."
Shennong suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes, but his smile quickly faded, and he sighed: "Is Beiye going to take this road too? This journey will be bloody, and I don't know how much blood will be shed."
Wu Wan raised his eyebrows. There was something in the old man's words, as if he was asking him to ask a few questions.
Can he ask?
Regarding what happened to me today, the tone in which the two immortals from Sihai Pavilion spoke just now...
Indeed, Wu swore an oath on the Star God's hair in vain.
After he went to the human realm, he immediately concealed his name and burrowed into the earth. He must create a perfect false identity, find a good-looking sect with a balanced male and female disciples, and learn the postures he wanted to learn honestly. ,Knowledge.
After completing your studies, immediately return to Beiye and hide!
Now the more you talk to the old-timers, the more trouble you get into;
If word spread that he soaked his feet, had his hair permed, and ate meat and drank wine with the contemporary emperor, he might arouse many jealous people.
If they misunderstand that they are the successors of the Human Emperor, they may not even directly carry out assassinations.
So, Wu Wang calmly dropped the subject: "The leader of the Daughter Kingdom is so beautiful. It's a pity."
"What's a pity?"
Shennong said sternly: "She may become a god in the future. Although she won't have much fighting power, she may play a role at critical moments.
Speaking of this episode, do you know that the Human Realm also tried it in the early years. "
Wu Wan could only smile and shake his head, grumbling a few words in his heart - it was really not easy to break up the topic that the old man wanted to talk about.
"You said it, and I listened."
"How many people in the human realm today know how hard it was for the pioneers to open up the land back then?"
Shen Nong narrowed his eyes slightly and let out a long sigh that seemed to let out layers of mist.
Wu Wan blinked and vaguely saw a picture scroll appearing behind the old man. He put down the grill and rubbed his eyes vigorously, but there was nothing there again.
Just listen to the old man say:
"In the past, the war between the innate gods was a chaotic war between the two camps of the north and the south. It lasted for tens of thousands of years, and almost all the powerful people in the ancient wilderness were implicated.
Our human race’s Holy Mother Nuwa was also involved in this huge disaster and eventually disappeared without a trace.
The human race had been thriving in the world for a long time, taking root in most areas of Jiuye, and was inevitably involved.
The final result of that divine war was that most of the innate gods were wiped out. The new overlord Di Kuang defeated the ancient overlord Zhu Long. The latter led some of the innate gods to disappear without a trace. Emperor Kuang established the Heavenly Palace and divided the nine realms.
You, the Star God of Beiye, were the strong men in Emperor Kuang's camp back then. Your strength was enough to fight with Emperor Kuang, and that's why you were able to monopolize Beiye with your seriously injured body in the end.
Look at Xiye, there are dozens of innate gods, but none of them can defeat them.
The degree of mastery of the Tao Principles and the power of the Tao Principles themselves have led to a serious polarization in the strength of the innate gods.
Do you know who was the strongest person under Emperor Kuang back then? "
Wu Wan thought for a while and said slowly: "The god who monopolizes Nanye?"
"Yes, it's the god who dominates the Southern Wilderness, the ancient God of Fire."
Shennong stopped talking, took out a Taoxun from his sleeve, put it to his mouth and blew on it for a while.
The night breeze blows, and the world seems to become extremely cool.
When Wu Juan had almost finished roasting the meat, the old man took out two gourds and threw one to Wu Juan. The old man and the young man ate and talked.
"It was really a long dark night...
People who have passed away in the distant past do not know whether they are at peace now.
The ancient god of fire had a cruel temperament and had no sense of identity with living beings. If he didn't get his way, he would rain down fire from the sky, but he would not spare any beautiful living beings.
Anyone who fled across the sea from the Nanye tribe would be burned alive. The first thing all living creatures had to do every day was to pray to him in exchange for some mercy.
At that time, people relied on gathering and hunting for a living. A small number of creatures mastered the divine language and thus became the spokesmen of God, creating a second level of oppression.
Finally, disaster befell the human race..."
In the wilderness at that time, there was no fire at night. If you wanted to use fire, you could only wait for the blessing of the God of Fire, or occasionally get some natural fire.
A young human tribe leader obtained fire by drilling wood and popularized this method. The human race and hundreds of tribes in Nanye soon mastered how to control flames.
Because of this, their fear of flames has mostly subsided, and they began to stay with the bonfire at night, dancing around the fire.
This angered the God of Fire, who sent down billowing fire, destroying countless creatures.
Finally, after calming down some of his anger, Vulcan decided to execute the young human tribe leader.
The leader did not bow his head easily. He arranged everything and asked his tribe to send him to the throne of the God of Fire. The God of Fire thus pardoned his tribe.
The God of Fire asked the leader who had found a way to control the flames to confess, but he declared war on the gods. He was knocked away by a finger of the ancient God of Fire sitting in the volcano, wrapped in flames in the air, and finally fell into the sea.
People thought he was dead, and the God of Fire thought he had extinguished his soul.
But that's how he survived.
No one knows how much suffering he went through later, and no one knows how many difficulties he survived.
Finally, thousands of years later, when the ancient god of fire once again rained down fire all over the sky to vent the humiliation he suffered at the banquet in the Heavenly Palace, an old man stood up.
Wearing a raincoat, with bare feet, he stepped on the smoke waves of the sea and walked to the volcanic throne where the God of Fire sat. He looked up and shouted:
"God of Fire, please give us a land to thrive!"
The ancient Vulcan stared at the old man, looking into those familiar eyes with a sinister smile, and pressed a finger towards the somewhat frail figure.
The old man stood still, his long hair fluttering, revealing the numerous scars on his cheeks.
The finger smashed down like a mountain, but it paused the moment it approached the earth. Strong winds carrying waves of fire rushed from the fingertips in all directions, and the color of the world suddenly changed.
Kagami was stunned for a moment, feeling a wave of power erupt from his fingertips and spread throughout his body;
Feeling the sky and the earth rotating, his huge body soared into the air, then fell heavily, smashing out mountains one after another.
It stood up in astonishment and struggled, looking at the spot where its fingertips had just touched. The figure there was standing quietly, the raincoat on its body had fallen off, and its body jumped up, stirring the world, breaking through the world, and crashing into the ground. That Vulcan forehead...
"A fierce battle lasted for thousands of days and nights."
Shennong put down the wine gourd, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Guess what happened?"
Is there any need to guess? The result is not obvious.
Of course, you should pay attention to your tone and tone, be sure to highlight your tension and worries, and ask with concern:
"Vulcan was defeated?"
Shennong showed a slight smile and said slowly:
“Vulcan is defeated.
It was really a good thing that he had a bad temper and offended all the innate gods he could offend. Before he finally fell down, the whole world was watching the excitement.
And when the godhead of the ancient Vulcan was shattered by the old man's punch, many innate gods suddenly realized something. "
Three words came out of Wu Wan's mouth: "The God is slaughtered."
"Yes, he killed the gods."
The corners of Shen Nong's eyebrows flew up, and he was a little elated: "This is the first time that the acquired creatures in the wilderness defeated the powerful innate gods head-on.
Just before the innate gods came back to their senses, the old man who killed the gods devoured the god of fire, burst out with bright fire, controlled the avenue of fire, and stood tall in the sky of Nanye.
His name is Suiren. "
The gods fell into panic and launched a series of offensives. The Suiren clan stood firm, comprehending the avenue of fire while fighting the besieging gods.
The sky in Nanye was filled with endless divine light, and several more innate gods fell into the endless flames.
Suiren clan roared loudly, his long hair turned into clouds of fire, and he fought back the gods with one force.
The Emperor of Heaven was furious, and the army pressed on the territory. Suiren fought alone, and more figures gradually appeared around him.
The battle was going on in the dark, and the figures beside the Suiren family kept disappearing, and new ones kept coming forward, fighting all the way out of Nanye, into Zhongshan, and pointing their swords at the Heavenly Palace!
"It was at this time that the Emperor of Heaven sent people to negotiate peace."
Shennong's eyes were full of emotion, he shook the wine gourd, raised his head and took a sip, and said slowly:
"At that time, although Suiren was stronger than Vulcan, the protracted battle left him covered in wounds, and he could only hold on with just one breath.
The Emperor of Heaven, Di Kuang, was the strongest innate god, and the Suiren clan had no chance of winning.
In order to preserve the hard-won fire, the Suiren clan did not meet with the messenger of the Emperor of Heaven, and led the people to withdraw from Central Continent and return to Nanye.
After the death of the God of Fire, Nanye became a wilderness, and most of the tribes fled in all directions.
It was there that the sages opened up the human realm.
Suiren died of his injuries and handed the Vulcan Godhead he had taken from the Vulcan to his chosen successor.
This is where the story of Fuxi begins. "
When the old man talked about this, his eyes were full of longing and yearning.
He looked at the bonfire in front of him and said with a smile:
"Wuwu, you have to remember that fire is taken out of dead wood by human hands and is not given by gods.
The heaven and earth should accommodate the survival of hundreds of tribes, rather than belong to gods.
The divine war between gods is just to compete for territory, to compete for believers, and to plunder the power that makes them stronger and live longer.
The predecessors marched forward bravely and shed their blood, so that we can live in the wilderness with our heads high and our chests held high, without being servile or looking at the faces of gods.
What does God mean? He is just a strong man who has mastered the power early. "
Wu Wan nodded slowly and asked, "So, cultivating immortality means cultivating yourself?"
"Yes, this is also the fundamental reason why the Suiren clan can defeat the Fire God. Essence, energy, and spirit cannot be lost, and self cannot be forgotten."
Shennong smiled and said:
“You are still young, so you must remember this and tell those who come after you.
This is the root of the human realm, the source of the difference between our human realm and the hundreds of races in the wilderness, and the foundation for the human race to have such a prosperous age as it is now. "
Wu smiled and said: "I am from Beiye, senior."
"Ah, it's almost the same. Now do you understand what the Flame Emperor's Order is?"
Shennong said slowly: "When I got it, it was called the Fire God's Order. It is a key that can lead you to master the avenue of fire, condense the god of fire, and inherit the throne of the emperor."
Wu Wang: Are you a professional locksmith?
Shennong stretched and said with a smile: "That's all for today. Counting the time, it's time for me to set off."
Wu Wan looked at the small pile of skeletons in front of him and asked in a low voice: "Are you going to tell a story to the next owner of the Flame Emperor Token?"
"Hahaha!"
Shennong laughed heartily, with a hint of guilt in his laughter, "Do you know everything?"
Wu Wan's forehead was covered with black lines. Sure enough, he wasn't the only one who had this thing!
Those who lie are all lies!
This old man just casts his net wide and cultivates it more, and sooner or later he will encounter a big fish!
Wu Wan sighed quietly, feeling a little disappointed in his newly surging mood.
Shennong picked up the wine gourd in front of him and said with a smile: "I came to you this time, but I actually want you to do me a favor. The benefits are of course from you, so here it is."
As he was talking, Shennong threw a small cloth bag. Wu Wan opened it and saw a dark medicine cauldron inside.
"I'll give it to you to practice making alchemy."
"Senior, this junior prefers weapon refining."
Shennong's eyes widened.
Wu Wan immediately put the medicine cauldron into the magic weapon storage and showed a charming smile: "If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools. What I mean by this junior is that only by refining the matching magic weapon can he refine a better The elixir."
Shennong smiled and narrowed his eyes: "This time you..."
"Senior, junior would like to ask a few questions!"
"Just say it."
Wu Wang said: "If other Yandi Order holders are the first to reach the ninth level, obtain the Avenue of Fire, and condense the God of Fire, what will happen to me?"
"There will be no abnormality," Shen Nong said warmly, "The first eight levels of Emperor Yan's order allow you to understand the avenue of fire step by step. There is only one godhead on each path.
If others practice to the ninth level first, then this technique will only reach the eighth level for you, and will not have any other effects. "
Wu Wan nodded slowly and asked: "Innate gods can live forever, so why do seniors have an end to their lifespan?"
"Shackles of the Emperor of Heaven, you don't need to know too much about this matter."
"Is there any limit to other strong men in the human realm?"
"Also, those who surpass the immortals can fight against the innate gods, but their longevity is locked," Shennong said with a smile, "But compared to Beiye, they can live tens of thousands of years longer."
Wu Wan nodded slowly and murmured: "In this case, it is possible to reach the strength of the Human Emperor through other paths."
"Not bad, but extremely difficult."
Shennong waved his hand and continued:
"Your trip to the Women's Kingdom has really given me a lot of surprises. I am looking for spiritual herbs here. Although I am sure that I will escape safely, I am not sure that I will succeed immediately.
I still have an unfulfilled wish. If you go, you may be able to help me fulfill this wish.
In this way, I will have nothing to worry about.
Didn't you say last time that you would agree to help me for the sake of diagnosing a strange disease for you? "
Wu Wan corrected him: "I promised to help you with your longevity."
"Oh, yes, you see I forgot about it, thanks for correcting me."
Shennong smiled and said: "I am going to Kunlun Hill. If I take you with me, you can also help me make suggestions."
Wu Wang:......
Kunlun Hill? The capital under the Emperor of Heaven? There is actually the back garden of the Queen Mother of the West, one of the top innate gods in the wilderness!
Even Emperor Shennong Yan only dared to say that he escaped unscathed. What could he have done in the past?
"Senior, let me help you fulfill your wish! This is my duty for this junior!"
"No, no, no," Shen Nong came over with a smile and pressed Wu Wan's shoulders, "How can I bully others with my power? You won't break your promise, will you?"
"I……"
Wu Wan couldn't help but feel like crying.
"Your wish is more important. I can't help you, senior!"
Shen Nong smiled and narrowed his eyes, took half a step forward, and disappeared silently with Wu Wan.
Only the bonfire was left burning in the long night, as if recalling that sigh:
It was really a long dark night...
