Food System in Cultivation World-Chapter 500 - 458
In a flash of lightning.
Only to see Chen Xu gripping the scorching edge of the alchemical cauldron with one hand, fiercely pulling it upward.
Just as the Red-clothed Daoist said, this cauldron was extremely tightly connected with the Earth Vein.
This pull from Chen Xu was akin to forcibly extracting an object from the foundation of the Earth Vein.
It’s not an ordinary item, but a Treasure cauldron refined with the Emperor’s hair and the blood of a Great Scholar, heavy as a mountain.
At that moment, the Red-clothed Daoist retreated in a flash, for he had suffered a sneak attack, his Magical Treasure destroyed, and he himself was also countered.
He decisively resolved, believing it unwise to engage in close combat with Chen Xu, hence he immediately distanced himself, preparing to employ new tactics.
As he retreated, he never worried about the cauldron being taken.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xu instantly grabbed the edge of the cauldron, then exploded with Giant Strength, followed by terrifying spatial distortion.
The Red-clothed Daoist’s eyes widened in fury and panic:
"You can’t do this! Stop! If the Earth Fire erupts, we’ll both die..."
Speaking frantically, he disregarded his bodily injuries, bit the tip of his finger, swiftly spitting out a mouthful of blood essence.
"Heaven and Earth, Qi shining bright, Dragon Vein as such, feed my blood essence, heed my command..."
He quickly chanted seemingly ordinary yet profoundly mysterious spells.
As these spells were rapidly chanted like lightning, the mystic Earth Fire below the cauldron soared three meters high, charging at Chen Xu like a dragon snake.
The fire was so fierce that the nearby Wei Li, who was yet to fully rise, barely touched it, resulting in a piercing scream.
"Ah!" He screamed, scrambling and crawling aside.
Yet even so, his body caught aflame.
He shouted, "Help!"
But Chen Xu, struck directly by the flames, stood firm without moving an inch.
The intense flames wrapped around him entirely, yet couldn’t burn him in the slightest.
Standing amidst the fire, the flames seemed nonexistent to him.
And with a mighty pull, the cauldron was finally completely extracted.
Chen Xu swiftly stored the entire cauldron into the Fire and Smoke Kitchen.
Boom—
The raging flames, now unobstructed, soared upwards as the cauldron disappeared.
The flames shot up to the secret chamber’s ceiling, instantly twisting and deforming the entire chamber.
At that moment, Chen Xu heard a scream like that from the depths of Hell.
"Ah..."
The strange scream didn’t come from the Red-clothed Daoist, but seemingly from... this very chamber?
Gurgle gurgle—
Then Chen Xu saw the chamber walls beginning to wriggle and compress.
Dark brown walls started bulging with dark red blisters.
The blisters, dense and overlapping, tangled like fangs, swiftly pressed towards Chen Xu standing in the chamber’s center.
This chamber... is this even a chamber?
It clearly resembles some kind of unknown bizarre living thing!
This scene is bizarre, terrifying to the extreme.
The Red-clothed Daoist’s body was gradually being absorbed into the blistering walls, his face showing an uneasy mix of shock, pleasure, and malice.
"You wretch, doomed to die for daring to steal my Great Li Treasure cauldron within the Dragon Vein. Return the cauldron swiftly..."
"Ah ah ah—"
Meanwhile, the chamber writhed, the screams persisted.
Chen Xu started feeling annoyed and a slight dizziness.
But his Divine Soul’s robustness exceeds that of anyone in this world.
Presumably, this chamber’s screams should be a powerful sonic attack, but to Chen Xu, merely rotating his Innate Qi alleviates all discomfort. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
The fire is useless against him, the sonic attack on his Divine Soul is equally ineffective.
Standing in the blazing fire, he resembles an unmoved war god.
The Red-clothed Daoist saw his various methods evaporating into mere illusions, his pride instantly froze, transforming back into shock: "How is this possible?"
However, with Chen Xu extracting the cauldron, treading the flames, ignoring the compressing chamber ’walls,’ he strides towards the Red-clothed Daoist being absorbed into a ’wall.’
"Are you trying to catch me?" The Red-clothed Daoist shouted furiously.
"You cannot catch me!" The next moment, the Red-clothed Daoist appeared on another ’wall’ behind Chen Xu.
Despite experiencing multiple shocks and implementing several countermeasures.
Though ineffective, he possesses confidence and trump cards.
These writhing ’walls’ are his greatest trump card.
Rumble, gurgle—
The flames burned, the ’walls’ compressed tighter.
Wei Li screamed, collapsing on the floor, already absorbed into the walls as they slightly shrank, turning into a pool of blood.
The blood drenched the ’walls,’ causing the dark red blisters to grow wildly.
Chen Xu ran through the shrinking chamber repeatedly, seeming to exert brute force, wanting to pull the Red-clothed Daoist from the wall.
Yet, regardless of his speed, the Red-clothed Daoist managed to transfer behind him.
Gradually, the Red-clothed Daoist was no longer anxious.
He started mocking, "Ignorant child, I have merged with the Dragon Vein, here you cannot catch me!
Even with a body immune to water and fire, so what?
Once the Dragon Vein fully compresses, strong as you are, you’ll inevitably be exhausted by the blood demon curse.
You wretch, don’t care who you are or where you come from, today you’re doomed!"
Whistling—
The chamber space shrinks more, the flames intensify.
Chen Xu stands in the fire, having chased multiple times without success, suddenly stops moving.
He asks back, "You don’t ask who I am, but I do want to ask who you are?"
