Qin Bai could feel the slightest change in the aquarium immediately.
But he was still in prison after all, and he couldn't be distracted now, so he simply accelerated his pace and returned to Deyun Club.
After finding a quiet room, Qin Bai started to check. His face couldn't help but look a little shocked.
You must know that the environment in the aquarium is completely isolated from the outside world, and the entrance is in Qin Bai's hands, so it cannot be caused by himself.
I saw that the corpse of the old monk was getting younger at a speed visible to the naked eye. Just a cup of tea away, the teenage years had disappeared.
And what worried Qin Bai the most was that the soul in Niwan Palace turned into a chrysalis, and he could clearly feel the Buddhist energy brewing in it.
The three surviving souls were somewhat weakened, but a corpse dog soul had been born unknowingly. It may not take long for the soul to be complete.
Seeing this, he first released the Li family and his son and handed them over to Huamanlou.
You Hua Man Lou will find a room in the theater to settle down, and there will also be a Yin God and a paper man to protect you to ensure nothing goes wrong.
Qin Bai continued to retreat, and he found that the old monk was more like a state of hibernation, and he was afraid that the seven souls were also consumed independently.
To be able to make a person with such a level of cultivation sleep for self-protection, there must be something suppressing him at the bottom of the prison.
And why was Li Lingfa also imprisoned at the bottom? Is it possible that the two have something in common?
At present, Qin Bai should not know. He can only wait for the old monk to wake up completely and ask this person. I believe he can also have a general understanding of the layout of the faceless demon.
The faint Buddha's light radiating from the old monk's body caused the arowana to move around. It swam around and almost bit it when it opened its mouth several times.
So much so that the entire aquarium became extremely lively, as the Tool Crocodile seemed to have discovered a new world and was trying to get a share of the pie.
The anacondas and great white sharks raised before were already three to four meters long each, and without exception they had Ming Jin's cultivation. They also imitated the dragon fish and came closer.
Qin Bai quickly warned the dragon fish to be calm, but the dragon fish still tried to bite the old monk.
It seemed very impatient, but after repeated soothing, it finally stopped causing trouble, and the other ferocious beasts also stayed away from the old monk on the water.
Qin Bai couldn't help but shook his head. After all, it was a giant beast from the wild. Even if it was at the bottom of the food chain, its instinctive bloodthirsty could not be controlled at all.
And it is obvious that as the arowana grows bigger and bigger, as the overlord of the aquarium's small world, its temper becomes a lot worse.
He didn't have time to waste on taming animals in the aquarium, so he had to go to Miaojiang when he had the chance. Only by making the dragon fish into a life-blood Gu insect could he have complete control.
However, there is no free time in a short period of time. Qin Bai must now increase the strength of the enemy as soon as possible. This is also the main purpose of retreat.
He first used the pseudo-soul he had prepared in advance to cast Mana Consciousness, and then devoted all his spiritual thoughts to the scriptwriting supernatural power.
This time Qin Bai chose the White Snake script. Although the upper limit of A Chinese Ghost Story is indeed not low, he feels that the White Snake story involving immortals and Buddhas is the most terrifying.
The pseudo-soul soon began to form, and Qin Bai devoted his spiritual thoughts to accelerating the gestation process.
Every time he felt tired, he would read through various recipes, trying to find the most suitable dish to increase his strength.
In such a focused state, several days passed without realizing it.
During this period, Huamanlou also came to tell Qin Bai. The Li family and his son both woke up. Li Lingfa was in good spirits. He continued to devote himself to the mechanical avenue and got out of control.
After Li Maochun was imprisoned this time, he originally thought he would have a mental breakdown, but unexpectedly, he became less extreme and seemed much more normal.
Both of them also came to thank Qin Bai, but he had been in seclusion.
Qin Bai's face looked tired, but in fact he had gained a lot. The dish he chose was one of the last twelve in the ** recipe.
The points that need to be consumed are not many, and it can even be described as free prostitution.
It's not to save money, it's mainly because it's hard to find suitable dishes. There are many ancient recipes that use dragon liver, phoenix and gallbladder as ingredients, and eating them can subtly change your physique.
However, distant water cannot quench the near thirst, and Qin Bai has not yet reached the level of squandering capital at will.
The last dish chosen is called "all living beings", and its introduction is to concentrate the belief in all living beings into one pot. The effect of the dish depends on the strength of the so-called integration of beliefs.
So he had an idea in his mind that maybe he could find a way to do it.
Cooking dishes for all living beings must be arranged, and it must be done to cause a sensation in the capital, and it is best to attract Zhao Ji's attention.
Qin Bai handed the plan to Chen Jinwen and let him handle it.
In order to ensure perfection, Taoist Changsheng was also forcibly pulled onto the pirate ship.
Taoist Changsheng was helpless about this. His heart was full of resentment, but thinking of his own life, he had no choice but to cooperate with the other party.
After checking that there were no omissions, Qin Bai continued to use his magical power as a screenwriter. He had already discovered the possibility of further using this magical power.
When the amount of spiritual thought injected into the teacup reaches twenty drops, it will reach the limit. Then no matter how much spiritual thought is injected, it seems to have no effect.
Qin Bai originally thought that the upper limit of the screenwriter's magical power was this, but when he thought about it carefully, something was wrong.
The three magical powers of forging iron, fishing, and cooking have endless potential, and writing magical powers cannot be that simple.
As expected, he accumulated a few pseudo-souls in one go and used Mana consciousness, and after injecting several times of spiritual thoughts, a clue emerged.
A drop of green liquid was naturally generated. The moment it fell into the tea cup, the book suddenly turned to the next page automatically.
The pages of the book record three talents that can be blessed on pseudo-souls, namely.
[One Eye and Ten Lines]: Intelligence increases by 1 point, and memory increases significantly.
[Fisherman's Arm Strength]: Strength increases by 1 point, and arm strength increases significantly.
[Elementary Painting Skill]: Intelligence increases by 1 point, and understanding increases significantly.
These talents were unlocked by Qin Bai when he made achievements. They seemed useless but were actually greatly improved.
After adding to the talent of the pseudo-soul, it may only increase by 1 point, but after breaking through the upper limit of 10 points, the talent of the pseudo-soul will become extremely terrifying.
Qin Bai nervously turned to the talent page and breathed a sigh of relief.
After several efforts, the intelligence talent was at full 10 points.
He chose the talent [Basic Fishing Skills] without hesitation.
After continuing to inject spiritual thoughts, the experience of generating pseudo-souls immediately began. From the very beginning, one could see that it was soaring into the sky.
[Zero years old: You were born, a boy. 】
[One year old: Your father is a head catcher with strong martial arts skills, so you have laid the foundation since childhood, and your physical fitness is +1. 】
[Two years old: You easily learned the family sword technique. 】
[Three years old: Father marveled at your talent and passed down the family's internal skills to you. 】
[Four years old: You returned the improved internal strength to your father. 】
Qin Bai couldn't help but feel happy. This was clearly a cheating rhythm, and the fake soul he gave birth to was predictably powerful.
The only thing that makes him feel regretful is that it is a waste to use it to display Mana consciousness. If it is included in the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, it will be a handsome figure.
Just when Qin Bai was planning to continue to accelerate his magical powers as a screenwriter, there seemed to be quite a movement outside the theater.
He looked out the window and saw hundreds of people gathered outside Deyun Society. They seemed to be checking the notices posted on the wall. The discussion was extremely heated.
Qin Bai nodded immediately, it seemed that the plan had been launched one after another.
In order for a dish to be effective, it must naturally attract enough attention and then allow the dish itself to absorb a large amount of belief.
Most of the crowd were dignitaries, including many dressed as shopkeepers. Mr. Cai was also among them, but his face looked a little complicated.
He asked Yunyuelou to learn from Deyunshe and combine it with the catering drama. After introducing the old and bringing out the new, the passenger flow was several times the original.
But before things stabilized, Deyun Club seemed to have new plans.
Mr. Cai turned to the fat shopkeeper beside him and asked, "What do you think of this matter?"
The fat shopkeeper was very puzzled. He shook his head and said: "I really can't see the purpose. It seems to have no meaning at all to them."
"This is where Qin Bai is brilliant. No wonder he was able to obtain the title of Juren. This man is a great talent." Mr. Cai couldn't help but sigh.
"Then what should I do, Mr. Cai? Will he participate?"
"Why don't you participate? Besides, our Yunyue Tower still wants to win the first place."
Mr. Cai snorted coldly, then turned around and walked out of the crowd. The fat shopkeeper quickly followed behind him.
The crowd was still bustling, and the center of the discussion was a huge picture posted on the wall of Deyun Club.
There are several chefs from the imperial kitchen painted on it, and it says "The World's Best Chef Contest".
On the side is a notice full of handwriting, which basically means that it is fully sponsored by Deyun Society and invites major restaurants in the capital to participate in the competition to determine the best chef in the Song Dynasty.
The participating judges were all retired chefs from the imperial dining room. They were invited by Taoist Changsheng, and they were easily solved with some elixirs.
Deyun Society does not participate in the competition. On the surface, it is for the absolute fairness of the competition, but in fact it is a dish for all living beings.
The reaction of various forces was normal at first, but with the entry of Yunyuelou, they all felt the general trend. In just half a day, more than 20 restaurants signed up.
There are many restaurants with hundreds of years of history among them, and the Chef Fairy Competition is tentatively scheduled for three days later, and it is estimated that hundreds of people will participate.
Therefore, Qin Bai set the venue of the ceremony in the Gongyuan that had been razed to the ground.
It was Taoist Changsheng who still came forward to say that there might be demonic auras in the Gongyuan that needed to be cleared away, and he hastily held a ritual ceremony.
Then he found another reason. The demonic aura was difficult to remove and needed to be suppressed with strong energy and blood.
Then it was successfully loaned to Qin Bai, and the engineering department had no objections from the beginning to the end, after all, a demon was involved.
However, as the Master of Cooking competition was in full swing, the Ministry of Works noticed something was wrong. It all felt like it was premeditated.
But the deal was done and there was no way to stop it. Taoist Changsheng even pretended to send Taoist Zishu to the competition venue to take charge, while he himself stayed away from Qin Bai as long as he could.
After the preparations for the Chef Fairy Competition were complete, Qin Bai ended his retreat.
The script of The Legend of White Snake went much smoother than expected, and the pseudo-soul that was born in the end even made him feel the pressure.
The experience of the pseudo-soul is extremely legendary.
[Seven years old: Your father died because he was involved in a demon case. 】
[Eight years old: Because your strength is different from ordinary people, you inherited your father's position as a detective. 】
[Nine years old: With his own efforts, the residents of the town have become much safer. 】
The following experience was to constantly eradicate evil, and encounter several strange encounters, and the talent of the pseudo-soul became even more exaggerated.
His physical constitution has reached 10 points, his intelligence has reached 17 points, and his internal strength has been greatly improved. At the age of only eighteen, he became a famous head catcher in both the government and the public.
[Nineteen years old: I heard that there was a snake disaster in Hangzhou, and there were a lot of venomous snakes in the mountains that hurt people. 】
[Twenty years old: When investigating a case, you were attacked by a green snake demon. You successfully forced him back with your extremely strong strength. 】
[Twenty-one years old: Fahai saw your talent and tried to accept you as his disciple. 】
At this time, Qin Bai had an option. Of course, he let the pseudo-soul become his disciple. Logically speaking, Fahai was the master of the White Snake. If he missed it, he would not have this opportunity.
This was also the reason why he spent a lot of time. The lifespan of the pseudo-soul was too long after it embarked on the path of cultivation. It lived for more than three hundred years before it was completely dead.
During this period, he defeated countless demons and even killed the two green and white snakes with just one punch.
The fake soul exuded Buddha's light in Qin Bai's Niwan Palace, and even gave him a dazzling feeling, far surpassing his own soul.
Under the influence of the false soul, he felt that practicing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra was much faster, and he might be able to achieve the first fruition within two or three months.
I don’t actually know what the pseudo-soul’s cultivation level is just based on my experience, but I can tell that it’s not much weaker than Fa Hai in this world.
Therefore, if Qin Bai uses this pseudo-soul to use his mona consciousness, he will definitely be able to fight against the faceless demon.
Just thinking about it makes me feel distressed. You must know that whether it is digesting memories or refining them into Yinshen, the value can be maximized. It is indeed a waste to temporarily increase the strength.
He stored the pseudo-soul in the Niwan Palace and did not intend to use it unless absolutely necessary. It also helped with his cultivation.
After Qin Bai came out of seclusion, he went to the venue of the Chef Fairy Competition to check it out.
The wooden stage has been set up, which is enough for hundreds of chefs to compete on the same stage, and there are seats around it for thousands of people.
As the organizer, Deyun Society naturally makes a lot of money by selling tickets, and spectators can also taste the dishes cooked by the participating chefs.
Qin Bai was very satisfied with the venue. It was not easy to find such a large open space in the capital.
He took out the bronze cauldron, directly reduced it to a size of three meters, and then placed it in the center of the venue, where everyone could watch the dishes.
Qin Bai threw some ingredients into the bronze cauldron, most of which were extremely difficult to cook, such as dragon's spine, cold crystal ore, etc.
He closed the lid and returned to the theater without paying attention.
Without refining, this magic weapon would weigh more than ten tons, and it would be impossible for anyone to steal it.
Not to mention that Qin Bai can react at any time. Gongyuan is not far from Deyun Society. Staying where he is can better ensure the effect of the dishes for all living beings.
Because the next day was the start of the Chef Fairy Competition, he had to be prepared and exchange a large amount of ingredients for each chef to cook.
