Celestial Food Departnt, Vegetarian Banquet Palace.
In his own small kitchen, Yan Ming arranged the eighteen pieces of golden kitchenware, ready to showcase his skills.
Beside him, Nie Yiyang was waiting for his friend to start cooking.
Yan Ming did not slack off either, bringing out all sorts of immortal treasures he had accumulated over the years to diligently prepare for cooking.
The eighteen pieces of golden kitchenware were all profound tier treasures, containing infinite Great Dao Laws.
In this round of cooking, those immortal treasures were stead, boiled, and sliced, with innurable Dao Profound Patterns etched upon them; the Dao Charm of the ingredients blended with one another, raising them to a higher level.
In the Celestial Court, cooking and alchemy are actually intertwined, both involving the use of fire.
Sotis, immortals with superior cooking skills are even more favored.
After all, it counts as one of the few pleasures of immortals.
Dish after dish of vegetarian food was prepared by Yan Ming, sealed with exquisite Immortal Crystal Food Boxes, allowing the Dao Charm inside to gather for secondary refinent.
Before long, a complete table of thirty-six vegetarian dishes was cooked.
Indeed, there was no at.
The Vegetarian Banquet Palace only makes vegetarian dishes, naturally lacking in at dishes.
"Brother Nie, try my skills," Yan Ming said with a laugh.
Then, he lifted the lid of the first dish.
An infinite fragrance wafted out; if ordinary people slled it, they could easily extend their lifespans by hundreds of years.
If one could taste a bite, it could increase their lifespan by tens of thousands of years.
"Then I won't hold back," said Nie Yiyang.
Then he helped himself with chopsticks.
Upon tasting a mouthful, he couldn't help but praise continually.
Yan Ming also tried so himself, satisfied, saying, "These profound tier kitchenware are truly extraordinary. Even so ordinary Divine Treasures can be brought to such a level. If I could use them regularly, in less than a millennium, we might reach Taiyi Cultivation."
"Brother Yan, do not do anything unwise....." Nie Yiyang quickly reminded him.
"Rest assured, I'm not that foolish," Yan Ming laughed and said, "It's just a thought; let's continue enjoying the dishes."
The two of them opened dish after dish, unaware that the aroma of the dishes had already perated the entire Vegetarian Banquet Palace.
One of the effects of these golden kitchenware is to stimulate the Dao Charm of the dishes.
Interestingly enough, the head chef of the Celestial Food Departnt, Ying Yuntian, also arrived at the Vegetarian Banquet Palace.
Originally, he was angry because of the dishes made by several immortal chefs before, but upon slling this aroma, he couldn't help but praise.
"To stimulate the Dao Charm of immortal treasures to such a level and emit such a rich fragrance, the chefs in the Vegetarian Banquet Palace aren't complete fools after all." Ying Yuntian sighed, looking at the Palace Master of the Vegetarian Banquet Palace, Xu Quan, "Take to have a look."
"Certainly," Xu Quan responded with a formal salute.
After speaking, Xu Quan began to lead the way.
When he slled the aroma, he already knew where it ca from.
But he couldn't imagine how Yan Ming had managed to prepare such a feast.
For such a level of cuisine, if he hadn't prepared ticulously for a century or more, carefully blending ingredients, it would be impossible to make.
And even though Yan Ming had so talent, his cultivation was limited, theoretically, it was impossible for him to achieve such culinary skills.
Before long, the two had arrived outside Yan Ming's kitchen.
The door opened with a start, surprising the two who were enjoying the dishes.
Upon seeing Xu Quan, Yan Ming imdiately greeted, "Greetings, Palace Master."
Beside him, Nie Yiyang also saluted.
Xu Quan, however, didn't pay much attention to these courtesies, rely saying, "This is the Chief of the Celestial Food Departnt, Ying Yuantian. He is here to inspect the Vegetarian Banquet Palace today. Yan Ming, what dishes are these you've made? Why such a rich fragrance?"
"Palace Master, it is the Thirty-Six Celestial Spirit Vegetarian Dishes from the Vegetarian Banquet Palace," Yan Ming replied.
At the sa ti, he felt quite complicated, not expecting that just a dish made on a whim would lead to such an incident.
Ying Yuntian was already at the table, with a few dishes yet to be uncovered.
He directly opened the food boxes to look, with the fragrance assailing his nostrils, divine light blossoming, Dao Charm revealed; these immortal treasures were well-handled, created into a dish without destroying their inherent Great Dao, and during the process, more Great Dao Rules were added, making them even more delicious.
Flavor is also a kind of information.
When immortals taste dishes, they are absorbing the information of the Great Dao Rules.
Therefore, chefs who can refine and preserve the Great Dao Rules among nurous immortal treasures while further advancing them during cooking are especially valuable.
Ying Yuntian took out a pair of chopsticks, white as jade, from his sleeve, picked up a dish and brought it to his mouth.
Imdiately, he understood.
"So, it turns out it was due to over-relying on external tools," Ying Yuntian shook his head, sowhat disappointed, then looked at Yan Ming and said, "To reach this level, it must be with a Profound Celestial Artifact? Where did you acquire it?"
Yan Ming and Nie Yiyang exchanged a glance, remaining silent for a mont.
How should they explain this?
Ying Yuntian was not in a hurry, rely waiting quietly for them to speak.
Such matters could not be concealed from him by two low-level immortals who hadn't reached Taiyi.
Finally, Nie Yiyang spoke up, saying, "This matter relates to a Sea Viewing Envoy from the Washing Vessel Sea used by the Forging Cauldron Palace....."
Nie Yiyang dared not conceal anything, recounting everything in detail.
Ying Yuntian beca more interested the more he listened.
"This immortal friend truly knows how to plan; with just slight inducent, he took advantage of your position to save the expense of renting the Celestial Fire Hall's Profound Fire... However, I'm curious what kind of immortal treasures he's planning to cook with these eighteen kitchenware made of Chaotic Celestial Profound Gold—such an amount of Profound Gold could be used to forge a substantial profound tier Immortal Ship if applied key positions."
Ying Yuntian smiled at Nie Yiyang and Yan Ming, saying, "Since you have completed forging the kitchenware, go ahead and send a reply. I also wish to et this Immortal friend, so let's go together!"
Nie Yiyang and Yan Ming naturally did not dare refuse.
Soon, Ying Yuntian, along with the two and Xu Quan, the Palace Master of the Vegetarian Banquet Palace, hurried to the Washing Vessel Sea where Lin Qianxuan was located.
At this mont, Lin Qianxuan was still fishing.
But he had already foreseen the developnts of the subsequent plot.
Everything was happening according to the plot he had written in advance.
With his current strength, and the cooperation between the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven and Spiritual Enlightennt, the cause and effect of the entire Celestial Court were already under his control.
Thinking about what would happen next, he smiled again.
"Why are you smiling again?" Ling'Er asked.
"We're about to have a feast, I'm happy." Lin Qianxuan replied.
"Feast?" Ling'Er asked, puzzled.
"The great banquet of the Celestial Court, it's a rare spectacle even since the Celestial Court was established over eons!" Lin Qianxuan laughed.
Ling'Er was curious, but Lin Qianxuan did not elaborate further.
Before long, Nie Yiyang and the others had arrived near the Washing Vessel Sea.
"Immortal, I have successfully forged the kitchenware and have returned to present it, may you reveal yourself for a eting."
Under Ying Yuntian's signal, Nie Yiyang used Great Divine Power to spread his voice across most of the Washing Vessel Sea.
In the next instant, Lin Qianxuan appeared beside everyone, holding a fishing rod.
Then Ying Yuntian realized that he couldn't discern Lin Qianxuan's cultivation level.
This startled Ying Yuntian.
His own cultivation was already at the peak of the Taiyi True Immortal, not far from the level of the Profound Celestial Immortal.
Failing to see through Lin Qianxuan's cultivation could only an that Lin Qianxuan mastered a very strong Concealing Breath Divine Power or had a cultivation higher than his own.
However, either case ant Lin Qianxuan was not weaker than him, representing the strongest of immortals below the Celestial Monarch level.
"Greetings, Immortal friend. I am Ying Yuntian, the chief of the Celestial Food Departnt." Ying Yuntian first greeted.
"Sea Viewing Envoy, Lin Qianxuan."
For the first ti since this journey, Lin Qianxuan spoke his true na.
Previously, he was worried that the information of his real na might be spied upon, but now he was no longer afraid.
He even anticipated eting those supre beings face-to-face.
After all, holding the World Shuttle, which was fully charged, he could even run away right before them.
After the mutual introductions, Ying Yuntian explained his purpose.
"I heard that Immortal friend Lin plans to cook with so precious ingredients, and even specially forged eighteen pieces of kitchenware from Chaotic Celestial Profound Gold for this purpose. Therefore, I wanted to co and see what kind of ingredients Immortal friend intends to cook. I am sowhat versed in culinary skills, perhaps I could lend a small hand." Ying Yuntian spoke frankly.
Before coming here, he had considered whether to use Lin Qianxuan to manipulate matters within the Profound Fla Departnt involving Profound Fire.
But seeing Lin Qianxuan's profound cultivation, he abandoned that thought.
Lin Qianxuan showed hesitation, as if he had so concerns, but soon he said, "To be honest, I recently left the Celestial Court and ventured to the Outer Realm, where I accidentally discovered so top-grade Immortal Treasures, including so Immortal Objects already extinct in the Celestial Court, such as the Ten Thousand-Leaf Immortal Grass, Heaven-Reaching Profound Cane, Taiyi Dragon Vine..."
Lin Qianxuan listed ten or so immortal plants in one go and casually opened the gate to the Qiankun World to demonstrate that his words were true.
All these things were fished out by him from the past tilines.
It is hard to say whether they still exist in the current ti-space.
The more Ying Yuntian listened, the more shocked and excited he beca.
"Great treasures, all great treasures!! Immortal friend should not treat them casually, this ti I must be the one to handle the cooking, and I wouldn't charge even a single Immortal Crystal!!!"
"I had been thinking about whether to ask the Celestial Food Departnt for help, but didn't expect Chief Ying to proactively reach out. That truly needs to trouble you this ti; however, you won't charge Immortal Crystals, then how about this: After you finish cooking, we all share in this banquet, how does that sound?" Lin Qianxuan suggested.
"That wouldn't be appropriate, that wouldn't be appropriate; such precious Immortal Objects…" Ying Yuntian's voice of refusal was weak, clearly reluctant, but he quickly gritted his teeth and said, "Since it's like this, actually I also have a couple of Taiyi Treasures, why not bring them out to jointly host the banquet."
"Wonderful, wonderful!" Lin Qianxuan smiled.
"Speaking of Taiyi Immortal Treasures, I also have one..." At this mont, Xu Quan suddenly spoke.
He also felt tempted and wanted to join the feast.
If he could get a seat to taste Immortal Treasures, it might save him billions of years of arduous cultivation.
"What does Immortal friend Lin think?" Ying Yuntian looked at Lin Qianxuan and asked.
Lin Qianxuan nodded and said, "An additional seat won't matter, but we must allocate the banquet according to the contributed Immortal Treasures."
"This makes sense." Ying Yuntian agreed, then as if recalling sothing, he said, "Actually, I also know many Immortal friends with treasured collections. In this case, why not gather them all, and we jointly organize a Great Dao Immortal Banquet. It'd save from having just a dozen dishes, making it seem bland."
"Marvelous!" Lin Qianxuan nodded, but then he said, "Unfortunately, I don't have many friends; I must trouble Chief Ying with this matter."
"What are you saying, Immortal friend Lin?" Ying Yuntian replied, "To cultivate the Great Dao together and enjoy the Immortal Banquet is also a blessing for us."
"Then this matter is settled!" Lin Qianxuan declared.
Ying Yuntian nodded in agreent.
During this brief exchange, the friendship between the two quickly ward, and they were already calling each other brothers.
Soon, Nie Yiyang took out the kitchenware, preparing to hand it over to Lin Qianxuan.
Lin Qianxuan directly passed them to Ying Yuntian, saying, "These are handed over to Brother Ying. Holding them myself is rely pearls covered in dust. After this Great Dao Immortal Banquet concludes, I shall gift them to Brother Ying."
Upon hearing this, Ying Yuntian naturally felt even more motivated.
Once Ying Yuntian left, Lin Qianxuan cast the fishing rod, looking at the fish swimming in the Mirror Sea, he murmured, "Just waiting for the Twelve Celestial Monarchs; once they're in the ga too, this Great Dao Immortal Banquet will be a truly remarkable feast."
