A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

The other person's temperament was even more aristocratic than that of an aristocrat; that noble air made her seem to radiate a certain light, like the sun, impossible to ignore.

Such an extraordinary woman was something they had never seen before in their lives.

The Moon Goddess beside Yan Fei was also extraordinary. Although she wore an eye veil, obscuring her full face, it did not diminish her charm; instead, it added to her mystique.

Although she wasn't dressed as revealingly as Yanfei, she still managed to show off her figure.

While Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue were sizing up Yue Shen and Yan Fei, Yan Fei and Yue Shen were also sizing them up.

They didn't know much about the two women beside Bai Yuan.

However, Yanfei had seen them before. She remembered it clearly when they were in Sanghai. The woman named Ningyan had even challenged her.

She noticed at the time that the other party was quite strong, but probably not a match for her.

Compared to Ningyan, Yanfei was actually more concerned about Jimo Huaxue.

She still remembers that Ji Mo Huaxue used to look like a gentle and delicate young lady from a prominent family, but now her temperament has changed drastically.

She had also witnessed the battle between Ji Mo Hua Xue and Nong Jia Tian Meng, and to be honest, she was quite surprised.

Previously, Da Siming had mentioned to them that the two of them had easily rescued Hei Bai from her clutches.

To have grown to this level in just over a year is truly astonishing.

Seemingly sensing the faint hostility between Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue, Yanfei smiled gently, a smile as warm as a spring breeze.

"Miss Ningyan and Miss Jimo are staring at us like this. I wonder if we have offended you in some way? If so, then I would like to apologize to you both in advance."

Upon hearing this, Ningyan and the other person felt a little embarrassed and quickly shook their heads.

"No need to apologize, you haven't done anything to offend us."

After being questioned by Yan Fei, the two could no longer maintain their hostility, as that would make them seem too impolite.

Seeing this, Yan Fei smiled slightly and did not bring up the matter again.

They, the Yin-Yang School, must have had a lot of contact with Bai Yuan. If they really offend Bai Yuan's women, things will get complicated in the future.

So Yanfei took the initiative to change the subject and started chatting with them.

Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue unknowingly fell into Yanfei's rhythm, but they were completely unaware of it.

Chapter 237 Gluttonous Feast

Chapter 237 Gluttony: A Feast for the Gluttons

In the kitchen, Bai Yuan skillfully processed various ingredients, and one exquisite dish after another was served.

Meanwhile, system notifications kept ringing in his ears.

Just as the last dish, Steamed Mandarin Fish, was finished cooking, the system notification changed slightly.

[Congratulations on cooking a divine dish! Culinary experience +5]

[Your cooking skill has met the upgrade requirements; your cooking skill has been upgraded to level 3, and the relevant rewards have been issued.]

Upon hearing the system notification that his cooking skills had been upgraded, Bai Yuan's face lit up with joy.

He opened the system panel and found that there was a new jade slip in the items section.

【Gluttony Feast】: Eating is a science, and once it is systematized, it can become a top-level cultivation method in the world. There is such a great being who has compiled eating into a secret method. It can turn all things in heaven and earth into your nourishment. Even with your breath, you are absorbing the creation of heaven and earth for your own use. You will no longer need to eat to fill your stomach, because you are eating every moment. Your lifespan will be greatly extended, and you will also gain a near-ageless appearance.

Without a doubt, this is a martial art, and an unimaginably powerful one at that.

For Bai Yuan, who was born in a great foodie empire, this was practically tailor-made for him.

Bai Yuan couldn't help but swallow hard, but thinking of Yan Fei and the others waiting outside, he suppressed his excitement and calmed his mind by practicing the Mind-Still-Water technique.

He carried the dishes out of the kitchen and saw Ningyan and the others chatting happily with Yanfei and Yueshen, which made him feel a little strange.

The atmosphere seemed a bit off when he left. How come they all acted like close friends in the short time it took him to cook a meal?

Bai Yuan shook his head slightly, not quite understanding the way women communicated.

Upon seeing Bai Yuan approach, Yun Xi and the other maids quickly stepped forward and took the food from his hands.

Ningyan and Yanfei also got up to greet them.

Smelling the rich fragrance, Yanfei and Yueshen twitched their noses slightly and quietly swallowed.

Both of them were clearly surprised. Just smelling these aromas made their mouths water and their tongues water.

Seeing Yanfei and Yueshen's expressions, Ningyan and Jimo Huaxue both showed a satisfied look.

Just now, when they were talking with Yan Fei, they deliberately didn't mention how good Bai Yuan's cooking skills were, just to see the two of them make a fool of themselves.

Ningyan and the others were very much looking forward to seeing how the noble Dongjun and Yueshen of the Yin-Yang School would react after tasting the delicacies made by Baiyuan.

As soon as everyone took their seats, Dongjun and Yueshen couldn't wait any longer.

Bai Yuan smiled and introduced the dishes to them.

"This steamed mandarin fish is the key to healing the injuries of the two men, Hei and Bai, and has the effect of nourishing the soul."

After hearing this, Yanfei and Yueshen stared at the fish for a long time, looking eager and impatient.

Bai Yuan coughed twice, then waved his hand, signaling to start eating.

However, only Yanfei and Yueshen actually used their chopsticks. The two of them picked up a piece of fish and put it in their mouths.

The fish melted in their mouths, incredibly delicious, so delicious that both of them squinted their eyes.

What follows is a feeling of euphoria, a comfort that comes from the very soul.

This caused them to let out an alluring moan.

But the next moment, the two realized something was wrong. When they opened their eyes, they found that Bai Yuan and the others were looking at them with strange eyes. Even though the two were strong-willed, a faint blush appeared on their faces.

"We didn't expect your cooking skills to be so good. We've been a bit flustered."

Yan Fei looked at Bai Yuan somewhat embarrassed, trying to explain away her groan.

At this moment, they completely believed that this dish had a healing effect on the soul, and after experiencing it for themselves, the feeling was truly amazing.

Bai Yuan waved his hand slightly: "If you don't react, I'll really think my skills have deteriorated."

After witnessing Yanfei and Yueshen's embarrassing performance, the others no longer hesitated and quickly began to devour the meal.

Out of modesty, Yanfei and Yueshen initially behaved politely and unhurriedly.

But they soon discovered that if they weren't quick, the dishes would soon be out of their reach.

So the two of them forgot all about being reserved and started using their chopsticks so fast that they left blurry afterimages.

Before long, the entire table of food was completely devoured.

After the meal, both Yanfei and Yueshen felt a little dizzy and even had difficulty standing.

Bai Yuan immediately noticed their situation.

"I advise you to sit down and close your eyes to rest first, so that your body can better adapt to the enhancement of your soul."

Just like they were before, Yanfei and Yueshen needed time for their bodies to adapt after their souls were enhanced before they could move normally.

Since Bai Yuan and the others had already eaten steamed mandarin fish many times, their dizziness was not as strong as Yan Fei and Yue Shen's. They were only slightly dizzy, and their symptoms resembled that of someone who had drunk a little wine and was slightly tipsy.

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Yan Fei and Yue Shen immediately sat down to meditate and cultivate.

Seeing that the two were engrossed in their activities, Bai Yuan stopped paying attention to them.

After leaving the table for Yunxi and the others to clean, Bai Yuan and the others went back to their rooms to rest.

As soon as he returned to his room, Bai Yuan couldn't wait to take out the jade slip containing the Gluttony Secret Technique from his system inventory.

This jade slip and another one he had previously obtained, "One Hundred Methods of Alchemy and Sainthood," appeared to be made of the same material, but it did not have the enormous space of that jade slip.

When Bai Yuan communicated with him spiritually, a mysterious message flooded into his brain, as if it were an imprint, turning "eating" into an instinct for Bai Yuan.

The surrounding spiritual energy was drawn in and slowly flowed towards Bai Yuan, forming a vortex that was barely visible to the naked eye.

Bai Yuan took a deep breath, opened his eyes, and immediately felt incredibly comfortable. The delicious food he had just eaten was digested in an instant, and the essence of the food was not lost at all. It circulated in his body and was quickly absorbed by him.

He could even clearly feel that his internal strength had been enhanced.

Moreover, the slight dizziness caused by the Steamed Mandarin Fish also disappeared.

At this moment, Bai Yuan felt better than ever before.

He looked at the jade slip in his hand, becoming increasingly surprised.

According to the information in the jade slip, the [Gluttony Feast] has nine levels, and he has only just entered the first level.

The first level allows him to instantly break down what he eats and transform the absorbed nutrients into his own through a cycle.

In addition, his body can passively "devour" the surrounding spiritual energy.

The speed of this absorption is currently very limited, far less than the speed of his active cultivation. However, its advantage lies in the fact that it is passive and completely separate from his active cultivation, with the two not interfering with each other.

Chapter 238 Yanfei: I'm still a little reluctant to part with her!

Under the bright moonlight, Bai Yuan was cultivating the secret technique [Gluttony Feast] in his room. He seemed to transform into the ancient ferocious beast Taotie, exuding a fierce aura.

This secret technique is said to be able to transform all things in heaven and earth into nourishment, and that is not an exaggeration.

Now his body can passively absorb the surrounding spiritual energy anytime and anywhere, but this is only the tip of the iceberg of this technique. In addition to this function, it also has other active effects.

Using this secret technique, Bai Yuan can also actively devour a certain item and quickly convert it into nutrients for absorption.

The higher the level of cultivation of the secret technique, the faster the absorption speed.

Bai Yuan was curious and tried it out. He stretched out his palm, placed it on the table, and then activated the secret technique. He immediately felt a faint warm current coming from his palm, flowing upwards along the meridians in his hand, and was quickly absorbed by him.

At the same time, the desk collapsed with a crash, turning into dust, and Bai Yuan vanished completely with a flick of his sleeve.

"Hiss! This effect seems a bit terrifying!"

Bai Yuan looked at his palm, gently clenched it, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

Although this desk couldn't provide him with much nourishment, the significance behind it was enough to surprise Bai Yuan.

"If I operate it properly, it can achieve the effect of the Star Absorbing Technique or the Northern Darkness Divine Art to some extent! No, even the Star Absorbing Technique and the Northern Darkness Divine Art are far inferior to my secret technique!"

If used properly, this secret technique could save him decades of detours!
