I'm Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

A piece of meat was placed in front of Jiang Liu.

The fragrance immediately shot into his nostrils, giving him goosebumps. He felt incredibly good, and he was ravenous.

The grilled meat had already turned a golden color, and there was a layer of fat around it. It seemed to emit a glowing light, and had the aura of a deity.

If he did not know that it was grilled meat, he would have thought that it was a priceless spiritual treasure!

Jiang Liu forcefully gulped, saying in a daze, “Is…Is this for me?”

“Yes.”

Li Nianfan nodded, smiling. “You’re already drooling. There is no need to be polite, go ahead and eat.”

“Thank, thank you.”

Jiang Liu was incredibly touched, and tears fell from his eyes.

‘The expert treats me far too well. Not only did he save my life, giving me the Wisdom of the sword, he’s even so caring to me. I’ll never be able to repay him even in ten thousand lifetimes!’

When Li Nianfan saw Jiang Liu wiping away his tears, he could not help but shake his head and smile.

That young man had such a miserable past. He’s so easily touched. It was just a small effort, but it seems to have already formed a bond.

Jiang Liu wiped his eyes, no longer able to control his feelings. He impatiently opened his mouth and bit down on the meat!

“Ah!”

“So…so good!”

Jiang Liu could only feel that he was unable to even breathe thanks to the wave of flavor. The taste of the grilled meat spread around his whole body, filling his mouth, his nose, his throat, his stomach…

There was no way for him to describe a taste as beautiful as that. He felt like he was about to fly, and a happiness he had never felt before enveloped his body.

Content.

Complete and utter content!

What did people live for?

Being able to eat something as delicious as that, his life finally had meaning!

That was truly life, that was truly enjoyment.

Not even kings could obtain it!

However, the moment he swallowed the meat, he was even more shocked.

The spiritual energy in the meat, and the Insights within, both exploded, filling his entire body, rushing straight to his brain. He was suddenly filled with an understanding of Dao that he never had before.

Woosh!

His entire body shook, and he entered the late stage of a Daluo Golden Immortal!

He…had a breakthrough?

A piece of grilled meat. It was not just delicious beyond compare, it even had a magical effect!

Even though he already knew of the expert’s strength, the expert had completely changed his world view, causing his heart to tremble, and making him want to prostrate himself in front of the expert.

“Brother, I want it too, I want it too!”

“Gimme, gimme.”

When Nanan and Dragin saw Liu Cheng eating the grilled meat, they were naturally tempted as well, and shouted at the expert, a long shiny line forming next to their lips.

“Hahaha, don’t rush, it’s almost done, eat it slowly.”

Li Nianfan laughed as he started to distribute the food.

“Blackie, come, the rabbit head that you like.”

“Nanan, this is the pig’s ear. The head is not bad as well, try it out.”

“Dragin, here you go, the lamb rack has to be eaten while it’s hot.”

There was enough food to start with, and everyone was happily eating away, their mouths full of oil, and their faces full of enjoyment.

At the same time, they all stopped speaking at the same time, as if it was the time to focus only on eating.

After all, one more word spoken could mean one more piece of meat eaten by someone else…

Everyone had immense appetites, and the fact that it was rare to have such a large meal meant everyone’s eyes started to redden as they continued eating.

They were getting anxious.

They wanted to grow another head just so they could eat more.

In the end, they started to fight over the food.

“Damn, Ye Liuyun, how shameless are you? I was wondering why you were yapping about next to me, trying to talk to me, you were actually trying to distract me from eating!”

“Yang Jian, you’re too much, you actually grew out three heads and six arms to eat!”

“Juling Shen, don’t be too arrogant, if you don’t shrink right now, don’t fault us for attacking you.”

“Are there any pots that haven’t been cleaned? Let me lick them!”

…

When Li Nianfan saw the scene, he could not help but smile.

It really was a group of unpretentious, down-to-earth deities.

Twang twang twang!

The melodious sound of a zither could be heard, and rows of fairies fluttered with their ribbons. Their lithe bodies did not seem to weigh anything as they drifted onto the stage with the wind, dancing with the song.

It was an after dinner performance, no matter the fairies on stage or the performance itself, they were both of very high standards. The gentle wind blew across, and there were countless flower petals dancing in the wind, carrying the fragrance of flowers.

A dance stage in front of them naturally needed to be accompanied with some good wine.

Li Nianfan raised his hand, laughing, “Xiao Bai, bring the alcohol!”

Xiao Bai shouted back, “Coming, my beloved master.”

He brought a large barrel of spirit over, and some fairies naturally walked forward, pouring the liquor for everyone.

“Wow, Lord Saint even prepared alcohol for us.”

“This taste…how fragrant! What a good wine, it’s really a good wine!”

“It’s too fragrant, the expert’s spirit is really frightening.”

“Thank you, Lord Saint. Let us all give Lord Saint a toast!”

Li Nianfan raised his cup highly, laughing as he said, “Hahaha, let’s all drink together, as long as everyone has a good time.”

With the alcohol, they started to get noisier. At the same time, their faces already reddened, obviously getting tipsier.

However, thanks to that, the atmosphere became even livelier.

Li Nianfan enjoyed the happy time, and he felt a surge in his mood. It was rare for his quiet life to have such happy moments.

He could not help but smile, standing up and he walked next to the Raging River.

Looking at the endlessly crashing water, feeling the winds hit his face, and boundless emotion surged forward.

His eyes were narrow as he said, “Shi Tuqin, since you’ve been learning calligraphy from me for so long, today, I will teach you a poem!”

A poem?

The tipsy crowd was shocked, and all of them looked at Li Nianfan, not daring to make a sound.

“Xiao Bai, bring me a pitcher!”

Li Nianfan reached out, taking the pitcher from Xiao Bai, pouring some into his mouth as he slowly spoke.

“Have you not seen…that the waters of the Yellow River come from upon Heaven, surging into the ocean, never to return again.”

“Have you not seen, in the great halls’ bright mirrors, they grieve over white hair, at dawn like black threads, by evening becoming snow.”

…

Boom!

As the poem was read, everyone’s minds seemed to be caught in the explosion. It was like countless currents were surging into their minds, causing them to stop thinking, and submerge themselves into the porm!

They seemed to see time flow backwards, and the world changed!

However majestic an age is, after the passage of time, they will eventually pass away. After endless years, what is left behind will just be a heavy or light stroke of the brush at most, not leaving behind any traces.

A strange rhythm enveloped the place, the river was still rushing, but it was flashing, as if it turned into the river of time.

Within, time seemed to speed up, turning from threads to snow!

The crowd entered a strange realm of thought, and a flash of insight was equal to hundreds or thousands of years!

“Heaven made me, so my abilities must have a purpose. I spent a thousand gold pieces, but they’ll come back again.”

…

“Since ancient times, sages have all been solitary. Only a drinker can leave his name behind!”

…

“Call the boy and have him take them to be swapped for fine wine, and together, you and I will wipe out the worries of ten thousand ages.”

Everyone was fixed on the spot, the blood in their bodies seemed to be boiling, and waves of heat surged into the air, as if they had all been lifted up.

Jiang Liu looked at Li Nianfan’s back, and he felt like Li Nianfan seemed to have been merged with the Raging River. There was an indescribable majesty to it, and he mumbled to himself, “The expert wants us to look forward happily, and not be trapped in despair. Hold onto the present, and show off our abilities!”

His power started to flow, and the laws rose like waves, suddenly rising.

He rushed right past the barrier of a Daluo Golden Immortal, entering the Early-Stage Quasi-saint realm. Then, with another push, went right into the Middle-stage!

He had just entered Late-stage Daluo Golden Immortal when they were eating, and now, he managed to break through two realms in a flash. And that…was just the start.

He could feel unlimited potential still remaining in his body!

Cultivator Junjun’s eyes slowly brightened as he said, “The expert is telling us that everyone has their own value. He is affirming our place. Even if we’re just pawns in the expert’s hands, we still need to show our greatest value!!”

His heart shook, and he suddenly felt a sense of boldness. The barrier to the Heavenly Realm that he had never dared to face, that he had always felt was a mountain that could not be climbed, was suddenly passed easily by just taking a step forward!

The laws in his entire body started to shake, and his whole being seemed to merge with heaven and earth. He was law itself!

Heavenly Realm, success!

“Since ancient times, sages have all been solitary…”

“And together, you and I will wipe out the worries of ten thousand ages…”

“Mister, how many burdens are you carrying on your shoulders? Let us share some of it with you.”

Daji and Fire Phoenix teared up. Looking at Li Nianfan at that moment, they were a bit dazed.

So, Li Nianfan, in his unending years, was still lonely and filled with worries.

Was it because no one was qualified to share his burdens?

He seemed carefree and unburdened, but deep inside, he was probably lonely and bitter.

Was the reason he lived as a commoner because he had difficulties that were hidden, or was he planning something?

No matter what, they…would not disappoint him!

A pure white light surrounded Daji, causing her to become like a fairy in a painting, pure and holy. A fiery red glow enveloped Fire Phoenix, like a fire that could swallow the heavens, arrogant and imperious.

Immensely powerful laws shot up like a hurricane, distorting the surrounding space!

The two of them entered the Heavenly Realm!

All of them, covered in the veil of artistic concepts, were constantly growing in power, everything seemed to go smoothly.

At the same time, in the distant skies, lightning constantly flashed. It seemed to come from a great distance. Somewhere in the Chaos, it seemed like the skies were being surrounded by lightning.

Cultivator Junjun’s chest felt hot, and after that, a figure shot out, floating in front of him, flashing in a radiant light.

“That…that is!”

Cultivator Junjun’s eyes widened, looking at the distant thunder as a thought shocked his heart.

Soul Master, that’s where the Soul Master is!

The expert, with just a poem, transcended great distances and awoke an ancient saint!

“Call the boy and have him take them to be swapped for fine wine, and together, you and I will wipe out the worries of ten thousand ages.” Was that the expert’s invitation to the Soul Master?

“Gulp, gulp.”

After Li Nianfan happily recited the poem, he raised his pitcher and gulped down the liquor.

His closed eyes opened by a crack, stealing a glance at everyone. When he saw that they were all stunned and shocked, he could not help but be happy.

It seemed like his showing off had been successful this time.

They were all people of culture, culture was not limited by mortality.

“I spent a thousand gold pieces, but they’ll come back again, and good wine is the same!”

Li Nianfan laughed, enjoying himself immensely. He raised his hand and threw the pitcher into the Raging River.

At that moment, within the river.

Under the frantic current of the river, quite a few water demons gathered. They squeezed themselves to the bottom, and did not even dare to breathe.

They looked at each other, and would occasionally exchange a few words, but they did not dare to make too much noise.

They had naturally received stern warnings beforehand.

The Heavenly Palace had already taken up the area, and there was a big figure arriving. If they did not want to die, they would have to pretend to be dead. It was obvious that the situation was very serious,and they did not dare to provoke anyone.

However, no matter how hard they restrained themselves, they could not control their stomachs.

Their stomachs started to rumble like thunder, and the sound spread throughout the bottom of the river.

They had not been hungry for many years, let alone have their stomachs make that sound.

However, the smell that came from the shore was really fragrant, and it immediately caused them all to be hungry.

They wanted to leave, but they were reluctant to. Even if they could not eat it, just smelling it was a form of happiness as well.

“Ah, what torture, to smell it but be unable to eat it.”

“The happiness of bigshots is something we’d never be able to imagine…”

“What kind of big figure is it? Just this food alone is impressive beyond belief. If I could have a bite, I’d be willing to sacrifice ten years of life!’

“Only ten years? You’re so stingy, for a mouthful of soup,I’m willing to give up a hundred years!”

“Stop talking, if we perform well enough, we might be able to get some scraps as a reward.”

“Keep dreaming. I’m so smart, I’m already eating fish while this smell is still in the air. Ah, it smells so good.”

At that moment.

The sound of something falling into the water reached their ears.

They were all taken aback, when they saw that pitcher of wine, their eyes burned as they trembled emotionally.

“Wine…wine, wine?!”

“Wow, so fragrant, there’s still quite a bit of wine inside!”

“Damn, this wine is too amazing! Just the smell alone is making my bottleneck loosen.”

“A godly wine, this is absolutely a godly wine! Which big shot is so generous. I’m so thankful, I hope he has a good life!”

“Don’t fight, everyone give way! Let me have one taste, just one taste!”

“Ah, so good, I’m already drunk. I feel my life is improving drastically…”

At the same time.

On the Ministry’s red star.

After recovering for a period of time, Guyu’s injuries had already gotten better, but his expression sank even more.

He was filled with rage and killing intent, saying, “That human Elite, even in death, hasn’t forgotten to fight the Eldritch!”

The Minister had a look of awe as he said, “That corpse is so strong, it might be related to the Zombie World breathing new life into the corpse.”

A Wisdom Elite’s realm was far too terrifying, and far too desirable.

“Hmph!”

Guyu glanced at him, and let out a cold snort, immensely unsatisfied with the Minister’s thoughts.

He had even been forced to call out the Elite’s projection, but they did not accomplish anything!

He hurt just thinking about it!

At that moment, deep in the Chaos, thunder suddenly resounded, splitting apart the pitch black Chaos, and flashing out waves of intense light.

A very strong wave of power surged out, causing ripples in the chaos, like a call being shouted after endless years.

And the power of the Wisdom within caused Guyu’s eyes to flash as he anxiously said, “Yet another Wisdom Elite! This time it’s resonating with the Chaos. It has to be the Soul Master!”
