Chef God of the Wuxia and Fantasy World

Not only the Four Swords, but even Ling Chi, breathing freely in the air mixed with various poisons, was completely unaffected except for the occasional sneeze.

With a poison-repelling pill in her mouth to ward off the toxins in the air, Azi asked in surprise, "Brother Ling, did you and your four sisters all wear poison-repelling treasures?"

Ling Chi smiled and said, "There's no treasure at all, it's just that I'm immune to all poisons."

"Immune to all poisons!?"

That's right, immune to all poisons. Ling Chi had already prepared the recipe from the Manggu Toad, and not only he and the Four Swords, but also Shuang'er, Huang Rong, and all the farmers on the farm had already eaten it.

Although the people on the farm don't face outside dangers, they are still afraid of being poisoned or injured. Their immortality is only due to the effect of being bound to the system, but it doesn't mean they won't die.

If they were poisoned or fatally injured, they would still die. To prevent this risk, Ling Chi would share anything good with them, which is why the people on the farm were willing to work for him without reservation.

Even after being recruited, they still retain their complete personalities. If Ling Chi treats them badly, they will still fight back; otherwise, Linghu Chong wouldn't always take advantage of him.

As they spoke, the Four Swords had already stormed into the main hall of the Starry Sky Sect. Ding Chunqiu was sitting on the throne at the top, coldly watching the Four Swords slaughtering his Starry Sky Sect disciples, as well as the traitor A Zi who was standing next to a white-robed youth.

"Azi!" When all the disciples of the sect had been killed, Ding Chunqiu stood up from his throne and stared coldly at Azi: "You traitorous disciple!"

The terrifying image of Ding Chunqiu that had formed in A Zi's mind over the years was deeply ingrained. A Zi trembled with fear and hurriedly hid behind Ling Chi, clutching his clothes, her palms sweaty.

"Ding Chunqiu!" A loud shout made Azi and Ding Chunqiu's eardrums buzz, and both of them were stunned.

Ling Chi raised his left hand and shouted, "You traitorous disciple, surrender now!"

Upon seeing the ring on Ling Chi's left middle finger, Ding Chunqiu was utterly shocked: "The... Sect Leader's Ring!?"

Chapter Fifty-Six: warped values

"Now that you know it's the sect leader's ring, why don't you kneel down!" Ling Chi shouted.

"Kneel down?" Ding Chunqiu laughed wildly, "Hahahaha, what a joke!"

His face hardened: "I dared to kill even Wuyazi, what is a mere sect leader's ring! Today, none of you will leave here alive!"

With a whoosh, Ding Chunqiu had already rushed within five meters of the Four Swords and Ling Chi.

"Insolence!" the four swordsmen shouted, forming a sword formation and attacking him.

"Die!" Ding Chunqiu roared, waving his palms repeatedly, sending six streams of putrid, poisonous gas infused with internal energy rushing towards the Four Swords, Ling Chi, and A Zi.

Upon seeing this, Azi cried out in alarm, "Chain of Corpse Poison! Get out of the way!"

The four swordsmen neither dodged nor evaded. They had long since become immune to all poisons, so how could they be afraid of mere corpse poison? Moreover, the sword formation they formed was extremely powerful. The four swordsmen stepped on the Four Symbols Step, and with a powerful swing of their long swords, they created gusts of wind that sent the corpse poison flying back.

Ling Chi then used a qi barrier to keep the corpse poison three feet away. Ding Chunqiu's proud area-of-effect attack skill thus failed.

Ding Chunqiu was shocked and waved his hands repeatedly to disperse the returning corpse poison gas, but the next moment he was trapped in the sword formation and attacked by four swordsmen.

Although all four swordsmen were top-tier white-level experts, the combined power of their sword formation actually unleashed the might of ordinary blue-level experts, leaving Azi dazzled. However, Ding Chunqiu fought the four swordsmen with ease within the sword formation, quickly suppressing their formation and seemingly about to break free.

"Hmph!" Ling Chi extended his right little finger and shot a Shaochong sword at Ding Chunqiu.

The Shaochong Sword was light and swift, the fastest sword energy among the Six Meridians Divine Swords. Ling Chi's sword energy was unreserved and struck Ding Chunqiu's chest like lightning.

"Ah—!!!" Ding Chunqiu screamed in agony, but the four swords seized the opportunity and each of them struck Ding Chunqiu's chest and back on the left and right sides.

The longsword was drawn, blood splattered everywhere, and Ding Chunqiu spun 720 degrees in mid-air before falling to the ground, spitting out blood.

Seeing this, Ling Chi secretly cheered: What a classic martial arts movie falling motion!

Azi stared wide-eyed at the Starry Night Old Monster lying on the ground, coughing up blood, unable to believe he had fallen so easily. In her heart, Ding Chunqiu had always been the strongest master in the world, yet he was so utterly vulnerable before Ling Chi and the Four Swords?

Could it be that I've been overestimating the old monster all along?

Azi remained silent for a moment, then looked at Ling Chi, who had walked up to Ding Chunqiu and was poking a large popsicle into his mouth. She suddenly realized: It's not that the old monster is too weak, it's that Brother Ling is too strong.

……

Seeing that the popsicles couldn't win over Ding Chunqiu, Ling Chi had no choice but to switch to a high-class blue dish and stuff it into his mouth.

"Well--"

"Ding! You have conquered the stomach of Ding Chunqiu, a high-level blue-ranked diner. The diner's rank is too low to count towards the conquest count. A high-level blue-ranked recipe, 'Master and Disciple Turn Against Each Other,' has been dropped."

"Master and disciple turn against each other: Advanced blue recipe, 50% chance of master and disciple turning against each other, effect cannot be stacked."

……

Seeing the name and effects of this recipe, Ling Chi was speechless: No wonder this old guy fell out with Wu Yazi. It turns out that this old guy is an ingrate from the bottom of his heart. With a 50% chance of turning against each other, Wu Yazi was just unlucky.

Seeing that Ding Chunqiu was on his last breath, Ling Chi asked, "Is there anything you want to say before you die?"

Ding Chunqiu had lost too much blood, and his eyes were already somewhat cloudy. With all his remaining strength, he uttered his last words in a hoarse voice: "I beep beep beep—"

puff--

Ling Chi pierced Ding Chunqiu's skull with a single strike of his One-Finger Divine Skill, coldly saying, "Uncivilized behavior deserves to die."

Azi was very puzzled: "Brother Ling, what did the old monster just say? For some reason, I think I only heard a beeping sound."

Ling Chi glanced at her and smiled, "Perhaps you're still a minor and shouldn't listen!"

Azi: "???"

"Young Master Ling," Mei Jian asked, "Ding Chunqiu has been executed. What will the Xingxiu Sect do now?"

"Let's call some people from the palace!" Ling Chi said. "The Xingxiu Sect is also part of my Xiaoyao Sect's influence, so it's a good opportunity to take over."

"Yes." Mei Jian nodded and immediately went to fire a signal flare, waiting for the people from Lingjiu Palace to arrive.

During this time, Ling Chi had A Zi show him around the Xingxiu Sect. Having grown up in the Xingxiu Sect, A Zi was very familiar with every plant and tree, making her an excellent guide.

After looking around, Ling Chi asked, "Why doesn't the Xingxiu Sect have any assets? Where did all that gold and silver treasure go?"

Azi chuckled and said, "The Xingxiu Sect doesn't need money to buy things, so of course they don't have those kinds of things. However, they have a lot of poisonous insects and herbs, which are much more valuable to Xingxiu Sect disciples than gold and silver."

"The Xingxiu Sect is indeed a bunch of bandits; they truly deserve to die." Ling Chi snorted coldly, looking at A Zi, and said, "Miss A Zi, I hope you haven't committed a grave mistake yet."

Azi broke out in a cold sweat and said, "I've never killed anyone, but it's too difficult to survive in the Xingxiu Sect. I had no choice."

Seeing that she seemed genuine, Ling Chi smiled slightly: "That's good. What are your plans for the future, Miss Azi?"

Now that the Xingxiu Sect is destroyed and Ding Chunqiu is dead, Azi finds herself seemingly free. The taste of freedom is certainly wonderful, but for a moment, she doesn't know what to do.

She shook her head: "I haven't thought about it." She glanced at Ling Chi, blinked, and said, "Brother Ling, can I come with you?"

"Why are you following me?" Ling Chi said, "I have plenty of maids to serve me."

“This… I can become your disciple!” Azi said, “You are the leader of the Xingxiu Sect, and your martial arts are so powerful. I want to learn martial arts from you.”

Ling Chi looked at her and asked, "Why do you want to learn martial arts?"

"Of course, I don't want to be bullied." Azi's eyes blazed with fire. "I never want to be bullied again."

"Would you bully others?" Ling Chi asked.

"Of course!" Azi said matter-of-factly, "What's the point of practicing martial arts if you don't bully others?"

"..." Ling Chi shook his head and said, "You little girl, if all you want is to avoid being bullied, I can teach you a move or two. Unfortunately, your bullying mentality is not something you should do." He grabbed A Zi's wrist with lightning speed.

Azi was startled: "What are you doing?!"

She tried to pull her hand away, but couldn't. Then, a suction force came and continuously drew away the little internal energy in her body.

Azi was horrified: "Dissolving Power Technique?!" She knelt down with a thud: "Brother Ling, spare me! Spare me!"

Ling Chi ignored him and quickly absorbed the true energy from A Zi's body. After some purification, only two years' worth of pure true energy remained and was absorbed by his dantian.

Azi's face was deathly pale, and she knelt helplessly on the ground.

Chapter Fifty-Seven: Tai Chi Divine Skill

The Great Art of Dissolving Power? Of course not.

Since obtaining the Beiming Divine Skill from Langhuan Paradise, with the help of Wang Chongyang and others, Ling Chi has been researching the possibility of integrating the Beiming Divine Skill with the Taiji Heart Sutra.

However, Wang Chongyang and he ultimately did not cultivate the Northern Darkness Divine Art, and some of its key points remained unclear, like trying to see the moon's reflection in water. You can't discern this ever-changing world...

It wasn't until he met Wu Yazi and spent some time consulting him that he finally found the key. For the next ten days or so, he kept trying to fuse the Beiming Divine Art with the Taiji Heart Sutra, and on the very night he met A Zi, he finally succeeded in fusing the two on the farm.

He created the Tai Chi Divine Skill by using the Tai Chi Heart Sutra as the main component and supplementing it with the ability of the Beiming Divine Skill to absorb, purify, and transform spiritual energy.

Yes, the Taiji in Taiji Heart Sutra, and the divine skill in Beiming Divine Skill.

The level remains 2, and the amplification effect is still 2000%. It just has the added ability to absorb, purify, and transform, and it can absorb not only human internal energy, but also the spiritual energy floating in the world.

Moreover, it is absorbed passively.

Simply put, Ling Chi doesn't need to circulate his internal energy. The Tai Chi Divine Skill that is already automatically operating within his body will continuously absorb the spiritual energy circulating between heaven and earth, constantly strengthening his true energy and enhancing his physique, strength, and agility.

Only half a day has passed, but Ling Chi has discovered that his true qi, physique, strength, and agility have all increased by 0.1. This means that even if he just lies down and sleeps every day, he can increase his basic attributes by 0.2. Over a year, that's a total increase of 73 in all attributes.

That's terrifying, absolutely terrifying.

……

Ling Chi released her grip, and A Zi knelt on the ground, panting heavily, tears welling in her eyes, her heart filled with resentment, yet she dared not retaliate. She had endured Ding Chunqiu for over a decade, so naturally she could endure Ling Chi's attack that neutralized her inner strength.

"Do you know why I absorbed your internal energy?" Ling Chi said calmly.

"It's my fault," Azi said. "I shouldn't have had the idea of ​​bullying the weak."

“That’s just one aspect,” Ling Chi said calmly. “The consequences of bullying the weak are the same as those of Ding Chunqiu. With this living example, I believe you will take it as a warning.”

Azi nodded repeatedly: "Brother Ling is right, I will never dare to bully the weak again."

"Do you think I'd believe you?" Ling Chi squatted down and patted her head. "You grew up in the Xingxiu Sect, surrounded by ruthless and vicious people. How could you possibly remain untainted? But you're still young, and you still have a chance to change."

He paused for a moment, then said, "If you can't correct it, I don't mind giving you a ride."

A chill ran down Azi's spine, and she hurriedly said, "I can change! I definitely can change!"

"That's good." Ling Chi smiled slightly, stood up and said, "Secondly, your internal strength is too shallow. It's no use keeping it. It's better to dissolve it as soon as possible. After your temperament changes, I will teach you a more profound set of skills."

"Really!?" Azi was both surprised and delighted. In her opinion, Ling Chi's martial arts were so powerful that his internal energy cultivation must be unfathomable. Even if he just casually taught her a set of techniques, it would be enough for her to dominate the martial arts world. If that were the case, what did this little bit of internal energy in her body matter?

“You’ll come with me first!” Ling Chi said. “I will teach you how to be an upright yet tactful person.”

"Mmm-hmm-hmm." Azi nodded repeatedly, more than happy to oblige.

……

The people from Lingjiu Palace arrived quickly. After hearing the instructions from the Four Swords, they immediately sent people to take over the Xingxiu Sect and to deal with the corpses. They treated Ding Chunqiu's head with medicine so that it would remain intact for several months, making it easier for Ling Chi to take it to Lingjiu Palace.
