<h4> 1365 Prepping For The First Immortal Meal </h4>


    Lin Mu had thought that being an artifact spirit with an illusory body, Lanbao wouldn’t be able to consume anything. But this method was not entirely unthinkable either.


    “I see... still thank you for all this.” Lin Mu said with gratitude.


    He expected eating these all would give a huge boost to him and the Nameless technique of the Lost Immortal might start get its satisfaction too. Lin Mu could subtlety feel that his next ‘hunger’ state would being soon enough.


    The hunger stage was when he would feel like he was starved for years and would want to eat everything. It was a side effect of the technique, but he could stave it off as long as he continued to eat.


    The more nutrition dense food it was, the better for it.


    “Well then, since Noble Lin Mu has everything I’ll return to the city.” Elder Niji spoke.


    “Of course, please feel free. I’ll contact you when I’m ready.” Lin Mu replied.


    ~shua~


    With that Elder Niji created the tform and flew back to the city. He had quite a lot of things to do after all, including settling down the Haima tribe members along with the humans.


    The Haima members were still fine, since this was their natural home, but for the humans this would still be an anxious situation, especially since they had not seen the two of them for over a day now.


    Once Elder Niji was gone, Lin Mu decided to start his cooking session.


    “Hmm... How will they be best cooked?” Lin Mu muttered to himself. “The fishes can be grilled, and I’ll boil the crabs but the hybrid beast...”


    While the aquatic beasts couldn’t understand Lin Mu’s words, they couldn’t help but shiver. An uneasy feeling filled their body, which was only amplified by the presence of Lanbao there.


    “Alright! I got it!” Lin Mu finally made up a n. “Grilled fish, streamed crab and Stewed Elephant Angler!” he decided.


    It didn’t take Lin Mu to be lost in his cooking prep and it left Lanbao watching with interest. She didn’t speak and mostly watched him do his work.


    ~DENG~


    The first thing Lin Mu did was to take out arge cauldron. This was none other than the Thousand Ding Glitter Cauldron Lin Mu had received as a gift before. It was a peak grade spirit tool and had been used several times by him.


    ~CLANG~


    The next thing he took out was a wide metal sheet. It was made out of Hundred Tempered Iron and was used for making armor and other spirit tools. He continued to take out several other materials, leaving Lanbao confused.


    ~SPLASH~


    Lin Mu first filled up the cauldron with spirit water and ignited a mer underneath it.


    ‘It would have been easier with Little Shrubby...’ Lin Mu missed his oldpanion.


    While the cauldron heated up, he set up the grill. He used the Hundred Tempted Iron sheet as a grill, propping it up with several stone chunks. He then threw some spirit wood underneath it and ignited it as well.


    “There we go, the first step is done.” Lin Mu said before turning to the aquatic beasts. “Can you release them one by one?” he asked Lanbao.


    “Sure...” Lanbao said, releasing a fish beast first.


    ~Ripple~


    The bubble rippled and a fish beast jumped out of it. Its helpless appearance quickly turned fierce, and it lunged at Lin Mu, fully intending to fight him.


    Seeing this, Lanbao was just about to act when Lin Mu spoke up, “it’s fine. I can deal with it.”


    ~shua~


    Then in the next moment, Lin Mu disappeared from Lanbao’s vision. “Huh?” She couldn’t help but be confused.


    ~SHING~


    A secondter, she sensed Lin Mu appearing right underneath the fish beast, a long spear in his hand.


    ~CLANG~


    The Iron Thorn Spear shed against the scales of the Fish beast, unable to pierce.


    “Seems like my old weapons might not be enough... I can still make them work though.” Lin Mu directly activated his Dao Skill.


    ‘Aspect of Heaviness!’


    ~DENG~


    The fish beast suddenly found its body turning heavy beyond normal.


    ~KACHA~


    ~SLICK~


    Then in the next moment, its scales broke under the sudden force allowing the Iron Thorn Spear to pierce it.


    ~THUD~

    The spear pierced though its head clean, directly ending its life.


    ~Hu~


    But then a momentter, a wisp of light rose from its body.


    “Careful!” Lanbao replied seeing that the nascent soul was appearing.


    ~HISS~


    But before she could do anything, she saw two ribbons shoot out of Lin Mu’s sleeves. The ribbons directly stabbed through the Nascent soul, ending its existence. They then turned to Lin Mu’s shoulder, allowing Lanbao to take a proper look at them.


    ~SHUA~


    Xiao Yin and Xiao Yang opened their mouths, sucking in the Nascent soul of the dead fish beast. The Nascent soul dissipated into wisps of energy and was consumed by the twin snakes.


    “See... there was nothing to worry about.” Lin Mu assured.


    “Who are they?” Lanbao asked seeing the twin snakes.


    “They’re my tamed beasts, Xiao Yin and Xiao Yang. They’re twins.” Lin Mu introduced.


    “Ooo... they’re cute.” Lanbao said approaching them without fear.


    The twins also looked at her with curiosity, not understanding what she was. They didn’t sense hostility from her and couldn’t smell any scent from her either making them think that she wasn’t even a creature.


    “One down, five more to go.” Lin Mu said turning to the bubble. “Release the others too.” He asked again.


    “Alrighty!” Lanbao released the next fish beast which met the same end as before.


    The crab beasts were tougher to kill for Lin Mu as even the Aspect of Heaviness didn’t provide enough force to pierce their shell with the spear so he simply switched to the short sword.


    With the amplification of sword intent, Lin Mu sliced off the joints of the crab beasts.


    Finally the Elephant Angler Beast was the only one left. It was also the strongest, so Lin Mu directly used the Boulder Copsing Fist’s Second form: Piercer to kill it.
