Douluo: The Peerless Sun and Moon Mechanical God

Chapter 47 Jingyang Mountains, Chef Qingzai Who Died with Unresolved Feelings, The Taste of Mother (4K)

Early morning, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

At the main gate of the academy, Lin Qing, dressed in casual clothes for going out, had his long silver-gray hair fluttering in the wind. His handsome face was clean and gentle, and his eyes shone with a subtle brilliance.

The name of the Azure Emperor resounded far and wide. Sun and Moon Academy students passing by cast their gazes, completely ignoring the dim-looking Wang Shaojie and Zi Mu. In the distance, two graceful figures gradually became clear, waving high at Lin Qing, their clear eyes smiling.

The two girls took off their unchanging school uniforms and put on smart and stylish white outfits.

The seventeen or eighteen-year-old Soul Masters were in excellent physical condition. Their tight-fitting clothes perfectly outlined the girls' exquisite figures. Orange stood out, and her crystal-clear, snow-white skin shone brightly against her white clothes, making her secret admirer, Zi Mu, dazzled.

Among the boys in the Red Dust Class, Lin Qing stands out, with both his strength and looks at the top, establishing an unparalleled authoritative position. Ye Guyi, Meng Hongchen, and Ju Zi are known as the three giants among the girls.

Ye Guyi exuded an aura of power, like an angel reborn. Xiao Meng was a well-known beauty enthusiast at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. They would never show any interest in others. However, Ju Zi was a non-combat type Soul Master. Her fair and tender face made her look soft and cute, and quite a few male students were attracted to her.

Compared to the three giants, Keke and Nana are forced to settle for being ordinary beauties, lamenting that the gap between them is like an insurmountable chasm.

"Everyone's here. Let me explain the details of the final exam."

Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan landed on the ground and handed Lin Qing a metal bracelet. He said slowly, "The storage soul tool contains two all-terrain detection soul tools, Unit 1. You five will be divided into two groups and collect operational data on the rock walls and forests of the Jingyang Mountains within three days."

The ultimate goal of the all-terrain detection soul guide is to be usable on land, sea, and air, and to be able to move swiftly in all environments. Unfortunately, Unit 1 cannot fly yet, and there is a lack of real test data. Therefore, your field mission this time is very important and is related to the improvement strategy.

By the way, the team responsible for the rock face has conducted high-altitude fall tests, while the team responsible for the mountain forest has conducted underwater diving tests. Mingde Hall gave you two Unit-01s to prevent the soul guides from exploding under extreme conditions, which would prevent the test plan from being completed smoothly.

You are free to do as you please on this trip. I will accompany you throughout and will come to your rescue if your lives are threatened.

"Yes, Fuwa-senpai." x5

After saying that, Zheng Zhan soared into the sky and disappeared. Lin Qing and the other four then took off, leaving Mingdu and activating their flying soul tools, heading straight for their destination, the Jingyang Mountains.

The Jingyang Mountains are located in the north-central region of the Sun Moon Empire. With the five-person team taking care of Ju Zi's flight speed, it would take about three hours to travel there.

With its wings tearing through the high-altitude airflow, Lin Qing led the way, still having the energy to hold a map of the Jingyang Mountains and silently formulate an experimental plan in his mind.

The mountain range's overall terrain resembles a human-faced spider, with the central Jingyang Peak covering a vast area and containing exceptionally rich rare metal mineral resources.

The eight branch veins are like eight slender spider legs, with roads leading in all directions and stretching into the distance. They nurture metal-attribute soul beasts that grow by bathing in metal energy, and the Jingyang Mountains are also known as a paradise for metal-attribute soul beasts.

Although the danger level of the Jingyang Mountains is not as high as that of the Star Dou Great Forest, the group of ferocious metal-type soul beasts is by no means a benevolent force. In another timeline, Xuan Ziwen is truly a man of great courage, daring to send three weak disciples to test soul tools. Is he not afraid that they will die in the Jingyang Mountains?

If Huo Yuhao and the other two were to die tragically in the Jingyang Mountains, the chief researcher of Mingde Hall would inevitably face an unprecedented reckoning, with Crown Prince Xu Tianran and Mingde Hall Master Jing Hongchen able to chop him into mincemeat.

With the death of Huo Yuhao, on whom Shrek Academy had placed high hopes, the already fragile diplomatic relationship between the two academies was shattered overnight. The next day, news came from Shrek City that the Hongchen siblings had died suddenly. The cause of death was that during a combat training exercise in the Star Dou Great Forest, the Gluttonous Douluo Xuanlao had accidentally done something wrong again.

This time, because the team contains the rare animal, the Ultimate Gold, the Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan faces a daunting task. Fortunately, he is the number one defensive soul master of the Sun Moon Empire, and his signature level nine soul tool, the Unbreakable Divine Shield, has achieved remarkable results.

As long as the five-man team doesn't foolishly rush towards the core area of ​​Jingyang Peak, Zheng Zhan can guarantee their lives.

They traveled in silence and arrived at Jingyang Mountain Range at noon, where they absorbed the milk bottle to restore their soul power.

"Boom! Boom!"

Lin Qing's fingertips brushed against the storage bracelet, and with a deafening roar, two metal behemoths crashed to the ground.

The all-terrain detection soul tool makes a grand appearance. Its exterior is an enormous metal sphere, with three seats inside: one in front and two in the back. It can observe changes in the outside world through the surrounding crystal plates, and its six alloy legs are extremely sharp, with the tips easily piercing into the soil.

"After resting, we'll enter the Jingyang Mountains from the first branch. The environment there is perfect for testing," Lin Qing said. "Wang Shaojie, Zimu, you two are in charge of surveying the rock walls. I'll take Ju Zi and Ke Ke deep into the forest."

"OK."

The personnel allocation was exactly what Blackie wanted, and Wang Shaojie readily agreed.

The royal family and nobles were deeply opposed to acting with Lin Qing. Their elders' upbringing instilled in them a strong aversion to the people of the Douluo Three Kingdoms. Even the power of the ultimate gold could not erase their prejudice.

"Sigh—I—okay."

Zi Mu looked conflicted. The humble admirer naturally longed to ride the soul tool with the goddess, but he couldn't bring himself to speak up because of the reasonable allocation method.

Lin Qing is the most powerful fighter, so it's perfectly normal for him to be leading the two slightly weaker girls. He and Wang Shaojie are both sixth-year students, and they usually work well together. When they team up, they can achieve a synergistic effect that is greater than the sum of their parts.

"Never mind, when you like a girl, you think about her in everything. As long as Orange is safe, I'm relieved."

After calming himself down with a few words, Zimu was the first to climb into the metal sphere.

"Keep the two soul tools at a certain distance, and remember not to go too deep into the Jingyang Mountains. We will try our best not to cause trouble for our seniors."

With a final word, Lin Qing led Ju Ke into the all-terrain detection soul tool, and the two metal behemoths parted ways to search for both rocky cliffs and mountain forests.

Unbreakable Douluo smiled slightly, and two beams of white light quietly landed on the all-terrain detection soul tool. After all, he was a level nine soul master, with countless miraculous soul tools at his disposal. Could he be stumped by a mere squad?

"I must say, the new technology that Mingdetang has come up with is quite impressive."

Lin Qing sat in the main control position, manipulating the joystick. The soul tool moved swiftly, and the crystal window presented a wide 180-degree panoramic view.

"Go back and report to Teacher Xuan that the all-terrain detection soul tool still needs improvement; it doesn't even have a rearview mirror."

"Uh-huh."

'

Two beautiful girls peeked out from either side, admiring the scenery through the crystal window and marveling at Mingdetang's superb craftsmanship. Ju Zi took out paper and pen to record her personal feelings, emphasizing Lin Qing's suggestion to add a rearview mirror.

As time went by, Lin Qing increasingly felt the omnipotence of this soul-guided creation. It made walking in the mountain forest environment feel like walking on flat ground, and the metal shell could also isolate one's aura, preventing soul beasts from detecting human presence.

The sphere itself is sealed, and the metal legs can be retracted when diving. Three people take turns operating it, and they can personally experience the omnipotence of the all-terrain detection soul tool. The thick metal shell, the level 5 soul tool shield, the rubber shock absorption - everything is complete.

If we were to nitpick, the issues would be offensive capabilities and soul power consumption. The all-terrain detection soul tool is not equipped with firepower, and Ju Zi Ke Ke's floating soul power can only support her actions for half an hour. These are the future directions for strengthening the all-terrain detection soul tool.

"Splash—"

"6

Waves splashed in the deep pool, a dark figure broke through the water, six metal legs stretched out in mid-air and firmly planted themselves on the ground, the metal door slowly opened, and the three people jumped out of the cockpit one by one.

After a whole afternoon of testing, magnificent fiery clouds rose into the sky, creating a spectacular and breathtaking sunset.

As the sun sets, Orange stands on the metal sphere, facing the sky with her arms outstretched, stretching her body that has been curled up in the cockpit for so long. The perfectly proportioned, full snow-capped peaks slowly rise, and the beauty of the girl and the sunset are equally stunning.

"Okay, Orange Sister, stop trying to be charming."

Coco tilted her head back, her red lips spreading into an exaggerated circle: "My stomach has been growling for a while now, Sister Orange, please feed me!"

"Okay, I'll feed you right away."

With a light leap, Orange playfully rubbed Keke's soft, fleshy cheeks, teasing her best friend without restraint.

"And feed the class monitor while you're at it. We need to ask him for a favor, so we'll have to find a way to please him these next couple of days," Keke said with a grin.

"Is there anything else I need to do?"

Retracting the all-terrain detection soul tool, Lin Qing turned his head, his silver-gray eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"hey-hey.

""

A petite and beautiful figure flashed behind Lin Qing. Ke Ke clenched her little fists and pounded his back with a loud "ha ha ha!" before revealing her true intentions: "Sister Ju Zi and I have broken through to level 50 in soul power and urgently need our fifth soul ring."

Your beloved class monitor, you can't bear to watch two young girls return empty-handed and shed tears in the academy every day, can you?

Sister Orange's cooking is exceptional, and my massage skills are superb. We guarantee we'll fatten you up to be plump and healthy, gaining ten pounds in three days! Look at those spirit rings—"

"I see, that kills two birds with one stone, hunting soul beasts while taking the final exam."

Lin Qing squinted, enjoying Ke Ke's attentiveness. After being assigned to Xuan Ziwen's group, the three of them quickly became close friends, and of course, Lin Qing would not refuse to do any small favors: "What are your requirements for spirit rings? Tell me."

Upon hearing this, Orange immediately raised her hand like an elementary school student: "I'm a food-type Soul Master, so the attribute doesn't matter. A Soul Beast that's a little over ten thousand years old is enough."

Keke blinked her beautiful eyes: "I am a weapon spirit, the Fire Pearl. Although spirits are not very useful, one should have the ideal of defying fate. The best fifth spirit ring is a ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast with a slightly stronger bloodline."

"So easy to raise?" Lin Qing was slightly taken aback.

It's no wonder Qingzai was taken aback. In the world of Soul Masters in Douluo Continent, the stronger the Martial Soul, the more cautious one is about the type of Soul Rings. For example, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's bottom line is to absorb powerful Earth Dragon Soul Beasts.

The mechanical elements were carefully selected, and even the first soul ring, the Yuanbao Golden Toad, had a trace of the Three-Legged Golden Toad bloodline. The soul beasts hunted afterward were all rarer than the last.

"Ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts are a rare species in the Jingyang Mountains. We'll advance a bit more tomorrow morning."

"Yes, sir!"

The two women shouted "Long live!"

This time, Lin Qing decided to use a retro method to find soul beasts, instead of activating the Golden Enticing Device like he did in the Star Dou Great Forest.

After all, the Jingyang Mountains are full of metal-attribute soul beasts. If the Jingyang Peak overlord soul beast is attracted, Zheng Zhan, the Unbreakable Douluo, will have to fight in despair.

As night fell, the three set up camp to spend the night. Since there were few spirit beasts to be seen on the outskirts of the Jingyang Mountains, they had no safety concerns and started a fire to cook.

The two girls repeatedly said they would take full responsibility for the trip's food and accommodations, but Lin Qing did not sit back and enjoy the benefits. Helping with things like preparing ingredients was something that often happened when he was still a young father.

"Orange, here are the ingredients for dinner."

"This—this is dragon meat, ten-thousand-year-old dragon meat!"

Staring at the large, clearly textured mass of flesh and blood in front of her, Orange wiped her eyes, her face filled with shock. No matter which empire or city, ten-thousand-year-old dragon meat was a priceless and extremely rare ingredient.

"A ten-thousand-year-old bronze hellfire dragon, my fourth spirit ring," Lin Qing said casually. "Dragon meat is very nourishing, I didn't waste it."

"The Bronze Hellfire Dragon, I remember that guy had an innate domain, did you kill it all by yourself?" Keke stammered.

"I used some tricks to arouse the greed of the Bronze Hellfire Dragon and lure it to the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest. The Bronze Hellfire Dragon's attributes were suppressed by the ultimate metal. If it were a soul beast like a ten-thousand-year-old golden-haired lion-dog, it would be much more difficult to deal with."

"A golden-haired lion mastiff!?"

The two women immediately bristled, showing their respect for the legendary soul beast. Orange teased, "The golden-haired lion mastiff has 'gold' in its name, but it is actually a power-type soul beast. Once the lion mastiff opens its Domineering Domain, you'll probably be slapped into the ground by a single claw and won't be able to be dug out."

"That's right, my hunting target has always been the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear." Lin Qing made no attempt to hide his interest in the bear. "If I ever have the chance to return to the Star Dou Great Forest, I must capture a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear as my spirit ring."

"Bear Jun suddenly felt a chill run down his spine."

The three of them laughed and joked as Chef Orange's main course for dinner came to an end.

High-end ingredients often require only simple cooking. Orange skillfully flips the evenly sliced ​​dragon meat with her wrist, lightly searing the moderately thick strips with flames. The flames suddenly rise, and after flipping and searing again, the meat is placed on a plate for diners to enjoy.

Keke and Lin Qing were also busy, deciding to make one of their signature dishes. The former used local ingredients to stew a pot of vegetable soup, while the latter set her sights on the fish swimming in the stream and started making something mysterious.

"Dinner's ready!"

Under the glow of the campfire, the two women's faces were radiant and beautiful, their rosy cheeks vying for attention, making them even more attractive.

The three of them presented their dishes at the same time. The roasted dragon meat with oranges was so delicious and appetizing that it made one's mouth water. Keke's stewed vegetable soup was fragrant and delicious. And then there was Lin Qing's indescribable stargazing fish!

"clang"

Feeling as if she'd been struck by a hammer, Keke's forehead was covered in cold sweat. She demanded sternly, "Class monitor, have you ever eaten human food?"

"The last time I cooked was when I was six years old," Lin Qing admitted. "My family tasted it and gave it a good review, but they absolutely refused to let me touch the kitchen utensils anymore, only allowing me to go into the kitchen to help out."

Six years later, I think my cooking skills have improved. You should try it.

"I think you need to apologize to those fish that died unjustly!" Coco said bluntly.

"Is it really necessary?" Lin Qing squinted. "I've thought about it before: I'll marry whoever can finish my fried rice."

"So picky! What a waste of such a handsome face! Who would even eat that?"

"A familiar feeling —"

While Qingke was arguing passionately, Ju Zi silently scooped up a spoonful of fish paste and ate it. After chewing it a couple of times, her eyes became blank and helpless, and she felt an indescribable emotion. Tears quietly streamed down her face.

"The taste of mom's cooking —"

"Sister Orange, did you cry because the food was so bad?"

Keke was filled with awe. Ju Zi had made a huge sacrifice for their fifth spirit ring!

No, you've misunderstood.

Orange wiped away her tears, looked at Lin Qing shyly, and said softly, "My father is a chef, so he's always the one cooking at home."

My mom wasn't a great cook, but she was determined to succeed. She always made whatever came to mind, and the food she made turned out exactly like yours. My mom passed away a long time ago, and I never imagined I'd taste that familiar flavor today.
