Killing Dao Fruit
Chapter 681 - 580: Chaos-Eyed Qiu Dragon, Human Banquet Recipe_2

The devoured White Lotus Avatar died utterly.

Zhou Wenrui, however, not only resurrected with the Green Lotus Avatar but also ascended at the most critical moment alongside the most central Red Lotus Avatar of the No-Life Buddha.

Their arrangement was somewhat similar to Wang Yuan and Zhou Jinhuan’s, where one controlled worldly power while the other handled the authority of faith, supporting one another as two sides of the same coin.

Moreover, after experiencing the backlash of the Defamation Technique and undergoing the baptism of malicious dark mud, Zhou Wenrui’s psyche had obviously twisted, corrupting completely.

From spirit to body, he had degenerated into a demon.

With the opening and closing of his eyes, an intense evil light flashed violently.

Surprisingly, each eye housed not one but multiple dark golden pupils.

The left eye had five, the right four, making a total of nine pupils altogether.

If a Fortune Teller were present, they would immediately recognize this as the "Innate Strange Phenomena · Chaotic Pupil Qi Dragon", capable of overturning the world and bringing disaster to all living beings!

Being of the same kind, he had long adapted to the miasmic, demon-filled hall and gently clapped his hands.

Clap, clap, clap!

"Capturing the entirety of Huai State is a great achievement of my ministers.

Come, bring out the exquisite dishes I have meticulously prepared and present them to reward your merits."

"At your command."

A group of pig-headed, black-haired Imperial Chefs carried plates up to the hall.

An alluring fragrance immediately permeated the grand hall, causing a group of beastly figures in formal attire to twitch their noses and salivate.

Each of them stretched their necks, trying to see what exactly was served in the bowls.

The lead Pig Demon Chef first presented two large sea bowls in front of the two Ming Kings.

Pointing at the bowl, which was still boiling fiercely even away from the stove, he proudly introduced to the ministers:

"Following the ’Human Banquet Recipe’ bestowed by His Majesty from Outer Heaven, our Imperial Kitchen has meticulously prepared these three dishes and one soup.

This first soup is called ’Blood Heart Soup’.

The heart and flesh of people who are naturally kind and accumulatively virtuous are rare medicinal treasures in the world, exceptionally effective in curing diseases, nourishing the body, and enhancing Taoist Skills.

This ’Blood Heart Soup’ is concocted from the intestines of those in Huai State who honored their parents, repaired bridges and roads, acted righteously, and were upright and good.

Those with the hearts and lungs of wolves and dogs must not be included in the dish.

Even away from the stove, it remains fervently warm and can continue to boil for a full two hours, best enjoyed while hot."

The second dish contained three fragrant meatballs in one bowl.

The exterior was a layer of translucent pale golden membrane, but inside, it seemed like a ginsengfruit, a tiny baby curled up.

If one listened closely, they might still hear a faint crying sound.

"As you all know, within my No-Life Dao, there is a technique called ’Golden Flower Condensation Pill Method,’ which condenses the ’Innate Qi’ inside a boy or girl into a ’Holy Infant Pill.’

The ’Human Banquet Recipe’ from Outer Heaven is even more ingenious.

Heheh, it allows one to skip the years of ongoing cultivation steps and go straight into the pot, without any interference from acquired Qi, retaining more essence."

The third dish resembled a huge pearl, each pearl seemingly containing a vague human figure.

A thread of red light shot out like a fountain, reaching as high as a foot.

"This ’Bivalve Pearl’ is even rarer.

It looks simple, but the preparation is extremely meticulous.

It is created by a Magician who implants a ’Pearl Core,’ refined using Daoist skills, into people with substantial Qi Fortune months in advance.

At a minimum, they must belong to the ’Red Light Shielding Life’ class.

Over several months, this pearl nurtures itself with the host’s essence blood and Qi Fortune.

During this time, it absorbs the Qi Fortune of a family or a clan until it causes their ruin, leaving only the unfortunate soul who has undergone heaven and Hell, ultimately sucked dry of all their Qi Fortune and dying a tragic death.

We then crack open their skull to extract this fresh Bivalve Pearl, tsk tsk, only then is it ready to be used in the dish.

These individuals with great Qi Fortune who are harvested are our ’Bivalve People’ used to nurture the pearls.

Right now each of you can enjoy just one pearl.

But in the future, as we conquer Jiangzhou, Qiongzhou, Junzhou, and indeed the whole world, there will be as many ’Bivalve People’ and ’Bivalve Pearls’ as needed."

The final dish, the main course, was steamed buns dyed a striking blood red.

"No need for much introduction, these are the human blood steamed buns freshly delivered from the slaughterhouse.

The steaming white buns, dipped in the fresh blood of those in Huai State who resisted the king’s rule, can cure all diseases and prolong life.

According to the Executioner who delivered the buns, not only are our people dipping the buns in blood, but even those ignorant mortals are also frantically scrambling for the hero’s fresh blood to take home for medical treatment.

Hahaha..."

"Hahaha..."

At the words of the pig-headed Imperial Chef, the entire hall erupted in laughter.

If ordinary people were here, they wouldn’t even think of eating, just hearing about the preparation of the dishes would make them tremble and retch repeatedly.

But these demonic ministers, although mostly of human origin, felt far from disgusted at this moment.

On the contrary, they saw the naivety of the commoners as an advantage, perfectly aligning with the practice of the ’Five Techniques of Civilian Control,’ specifically the method of keeping the population ignorant.

They unanimously praised the banquet’s menu, continuously commending its brilliance.

The ’Heavenly Official’, who consumed humans, never considered eradicating all mortals from this realm.

They only wished to utterly destroy the ’Dragon Qi Prohibition’, breaking the backbone of humanity, making humans willingly become the livestock of pigs and sheep, generation after generation.

Remaining obediently at the bottom of the food chain, serving as the most basic sustenance for demons, "Weird", and "Heavenly Officials" along this entire food chain...
