After the Qili Lingshi chef went to Meng Xiao's spiritual kitchen pavilion, he called Zhang Chi. He was not as polite to Zhang Chi as he was to Meng Xun. He directly searched his soul and called out all the memories related to Shi Wu in Zhang Chi's mind.

When Qi Liling's steward saw that it was Zhang Chi who guided Shi Wu to get the audio and video stone, he wanted to slap the dog slave to death.

Luan Suling stood silently by the side. He saw from the Qili Ling that Meng Xun had not betrayed him, otherwise, with the Qili Ling's character, he would have been in charge of the crime on the spot.

Qi Liling's steward moved his palm away from Zhang Chi's head, and Zhang Chi immediately fainted from exhaustion.

Luan Suling asked pretended to be: "How did you find anything?"

Qi Liling’s chef shook his head and said, “No. Shi Wu’s attitudes were exactly the same when he came to Lingchen Pavilion the two times, and all his actions were in line with the rules of Lingchen Pavilion.”

Luan Suling took the opportunity to say, "You know why I can't stop him now."

Qi Liling's tutor had to admit that if this happened at the second stronghold in the east, he would not be able to keep Shi Wu. He said, "Go back, our battle with him will be on the first day of August."

Luan Suling invited the meal teacher, "I would like to ask the meal teacher Qili Ling to go to my Luan Su Palace to rest."

Qi Liling's steward nodded in agreement and teleported to Luan Su Palace with Luan Su Ling.

After settling the Qili Ling steward, Luan Suling rushed to Hunyuanzi's bedroom without stopping.

When Hunyuanzi, who had been waiting in the hall for a long time, saw Luan Suling coming, he quickly stood up and bowed, "See Luan Suling."

"No gifts." Luan Suling took out the golden square box from the storage bag. "My friend Hunyuanzi, this was what I asked me to hand over to you before my retreat. This thing is called the Wanzhuan Box. He said that if you have any unknown things in the future, you can control this Wanzhuan Box, and silently recite what Emperor Shanhui said in his heart, "Come with the flow and do it with the flow."

Hunyuanzi took it carefully, and he found that the square box had no mouth, like a gold brick.

Seeing that Hua Jingxuan's instructions had been completed, Luan Suling said goodbye: "My friend Hunyuanzi, I still have a lot of things to deal with, so let's go."

"Please give me some advice." Hunyuanzi kept sending Luan Suling out of the bedroom gate before stopping.

The respectful look on Hunyuanzi's face disappeared after Luan Suling left. He held the ten thousand-turn box tightly and said in his heart: "Hua Jingxuan, you didn't even inform me of your retreat. You asked Luan Suling to give me this ten thousand-turn box. You just want me to know that you have the backer of Luan Suling. You are waiting! I will use your jade slip to understand the method of divine karma and Taoist calculation. At that time, you will no longer be you, but me, Hunyuanzi!"

Hunyuanzi shook his sleeve and returned to the bedroom with the ten thousand-turn box.

Shi Wu, who was in the compartment of the school entrance examination building, let out a light ejaculation, and he looked at the direction of Luan Su Palace with some emotion.

The Spirit of Heavenly Tribulation thought Shi Wu had encountered a problem with the spiritual meal recipe, and it suggested: "If you have something you can't understand, you can go out and ask Li Fei."

Shi Wu said in the introspection method of "Nine Transformation Spiritual Art": "Li Fei can't help much in the matter of array ring star stone."

"Ah? What's wrong with those two array ring star stones?" The spirit of heavenly tribulation said with concern.

Shi Wu told the Tianjie Spirit Body: "Since I sensed the array ring star stone on Luan Suling's body at the Lingchen Pavilion, I distinguished the one on his body from the other array ring star stone. Last night I found that the two array ring star stones gathered together and separated. Just now, this phenomenon appeared again."

The spirit body of the heavenly tribulation frowned and said, "What is Luan Suling's meal in the world?"

"I want to know too. And I always feel that these things are inseparable from Hua Jingxuan." Shi Wu said his thoughts.

The spirit body of the heavenly tribulation reminded: "Then you will have to be more careful when you take those two array rings and star stones in the future."

Shi Wu nodded and said, "I can."

Shi Wu put away his doubts for the time being and continued to focus on the more than 3,700 spiritual recipes that expanded their spiritual veins.

Although Shi Wu could not copy these spiritual food recipes, he thought that he had collected various spiritual food ingredients in Yujia City before using shadow stones. So while observing the steps in the spiritual food recipe, he memorized the spiritual food ingredients in the shadow stones.

Shi Wu used this method to greatly reduce the burden on his mind. When he memorized all the more than 3,700 spiritual recipes that expanded the spiritual veins, he felt refreshed and full of harvest.

Shi Wu walked out of the compartment excitedly, and he saw that it was already setting sun and sunset outside. After asking some monks, Shi Wu saw Li Fei who was doing business in another bungalow.

Shi Wu did not come forward to disturb him, but stood on the other side of the porch and waited quietly.

Li Fei, who had started another business, happily put away the spirit-gathering basin he exchanged. When he was looking for other sources of customers, he saw Shi Wu on the other side of the porch. He quickly walked over and said, "Xiao Wu, why are you here?"

Shi Wu handed the storage bag to Li Fei and said, "Brother Li, I'll come here to return your spiritual meal recipe."

Li Fei said in surprise: "You have recorded all three hours in just three years?"

"Well. Brother Li doesn't believe me, you can test me at will." Shi Wudao.

Li Fei took the storage bag and took out a piece of jade slip inside and said, "Cornivorous marrow cleansing and frozen."

Shi Wu blurted out: "Crocodile marrow cleansing and freezing is responsible for expanding the spiritual veins of the monk. The production is divided into two stages. One is the selection of materials. The wide-back crocodile selected must be of the late-stage Nascent Soul stage and the width of the back is more than twenty feet. The spiritual liquid used to cook must correspond to the spiritual root attribute of the wide-back crocodile. The grade must not be lower than the late-stage Nascent Soul stage, nor higher than the early stage of Kongming. Otherwise, it is likely to destroy the essence of the middle part of the crocodile marrow. The second is refining. The spiritual chef must wrap it with spiritual power when the crocodile marrow is still in the spine, and then slowly pull it out. If any drop of crocodile marrow is missing in this process, it will affect the quality of the finished product. The spiritual chef needs to soak it after taking out the entire crocodile marrow.

It is lost in the spirit-gathering pot filled with spiritual liquid, and then slowly simmer with its own spiritual fire. This process especially tests the spiritual chef's control over the flames. If the spiritual chef can remove all the impurities in the 36,000 meridians inside the crocodile marrow, and then introduce the external spiritual liquid bit by bit with spiritual fire, then the crocodile marrow cleansing will eventually appear as a clear white jade ball, which can expand the twelve meridians and eight extraordinary meridians. If it can only remove more than 18,000 meridians but cannot achieve complete removal, the final product will be a half-white and half-yellow square, and its effectiveness is limited to expanding the twelve meridians. If the number of impurities removed is less than 18,000, it is a failure."

While listening, Li Fei compared the spiritual meal recipe for crocodile marrow cleansing and frozen in the jade slip. He dared not believe it and said, "You have really memorized it all!"

Shiwudao: "My memory has always been very good."

Li Fei asked: "Do you need me to provide you with materials to practice your hands?"

Shi Wu hurriedly refused and said, "No! I am most afraid of owe others favors. I have not paid back your love for the spiritual recipes."

"Okay." Li Fei didn't force himself.

Shi Wu said to Li Fei: "Give me a jade pendant for transmission. When I pass the assessment of the spiritual chef, I will come and thank you."

Li Fei shook his head and said, "No need. I just feel that I have a fate with you, so I borrowed the spiritual meal recipe to you, not for your repayment."

"Then can you tell me who the fourth-grade spiritual chef is? If I become the superior of the Spiritual Food Alliance in the future, I will let him come and apologize to you." Shi Wu suggested.

Li Fei still shook his head: "The belated apology is actually meaningless."

Shi Wu asked directly: "Then do you have anything you want?"

"Xiao Wu, don't worry about me, go back and prepare for your assessment. Don't forget that you are the only one spirit-gathering basin left." Li Fei smiled.

Shi Wu had no choice but to continue Li Fei's words and said, "Then I'll go back and prepare."

Li Fei nodded and said, "Well! I wish you success first!"

"Inheriting the good words of Brother Li." When Shi Wu bowed to Li Fei, he divided a strand of spiritual power from the Nebula disc to mark the collar of Li Fei's Taoist robe. He wanted to repay Li Fei's favor after the assessment was over.

Shi Wu returned to his compartment before nightfall. For the next eight days, Shi Wu stayed in the compartment and recited the spiritual meal recipes repeatedly, and simulated the scene of refining in his mind. He remembered the selection of materials for each spiritual meal and every small step.

On the first day of the eighth month, at the morning hour.

Shi Wu opened his eyes from meditation. He took off the jade pendant that had lost its light after the door and put it in the storage bag. When he went out, he saw that there were already many spiritual apprentices like him preparing to go to the examination room earlier.

Shi Wu took out the map of the third stronghold in the north, and after seeing the ninth examination room in the southwest marked on it, he instantly flew to a height of thousands of feet. He swept around and confirmed that there was no one else, so he stretched out the rope and took off the green robe outside his body. When he cleared the fine needles of spiritual power in the six acupoints on his head, he had already put on the Rising Sun Dongsheng and put on the turquoise golden silk robe.

A fairy-like figure, with a face that reappeared in the dust as if Shi Wu, who was carefully carved by the immortal spirit. Without covering up his identity, he directly turned into a golden light and rushed to the ninth examination room in the southwest.

Shiwu, who was descending from a high altitude, saw a majestic circular building below, and the building was covered by a spiritual barrier, so outsiders could not see the situation inside clearly.

A long queue of hundreds of people was already lined up in front of the main entrance of this building, and Shi Wu also quickly landed to the end of the team by following the rules.

The spiritual apprentices here didn't notice Shi Wu. Many of them were discussing whether Shi Wu would come to participate in the assessment today.

In the sky southwest of this team, Zhang Tao, who had been waiting with the Spirit-Styling Compass, turned his attention to Shi Wu the moment he appeared. He immediately spread the news to Luan Su Palace.

The other sixteen Luan Su Palace guards who were arranged also focused on guard with a solemn expression.

Shi Wu, who was extremely sensitive to spiritual power due to the "Nine Transformation Spiritual Art", also noticed Zhang Tao and others. He wondered why Yu Luan Suling sent so many subordinates to come. He expanded his ears and wanted to hear the voice transmission content of Zhang Tao and Luan Suling, but he only heard Luan Suling's voice transmission jade pendant say that we will arrive before Chen Hou.

"We?" Shi Wu said to himself.

The heavenly tribulation spirit body asked, "What's wrong?"

Shi Wu used the introspection method of "Nine Transformation Spiritual Art": "I feel that someone is coming from the headquarters of the Lingchen Alliance. When Luan Suling first transmitted a message to his subordinates, he said, 'We will arrive before Chen Shishi'."

The spirit body of the heavenly tribulation didn't care and said, "If you come, come. Today, you just need to display the three-eyed spirit gathering pot of the return level to them according to the plan."

"Be more careful, I'm afraid that things will change today." Shi Wu said as he took out the Red Feather Sword from his seabag and held it behind him. At the same time, he reached into his sleeve and held the storage bag containing Hai Yutao and Yizhiqinghe.

The spirit body of the Heavenly Tribulation knew that Shi Wu liked to think things the worst and farthest, so it was used to Shi Wu's actions. It only hoped that Luan Suling would not make any mistakes. If the matter was complicated, no one could make it better.

Shi Wu's actions of taking out the magic weapon really scared Zhang Tao and the others. Although Shi Wu did not make any further moves, they did not dare to carelessly raise their vigilance.

At this time, monks flew over from outside the ninth examination hall in the southwest, and dozens of people lined up behind Shi Wu in a short while.

Shi Wu, who was standing outside the place, heard that the spiritual apprentices around him were discussing whether he would appear today. Shi Wu said in his heart: "If you have this opportunity, it's better to think more about how you can pass the assessment later."

Shi Wu suddenly felt that in addition to the original seventeen spiritual powers, there was another spiritual power staring at him. When Shi Wu followed the spiritual power, he found that the master of this spiritual power was Lu Peijun who had changed his position with him at the Lingchang Pavilion and told him a lot of precautions.

Shi Wu originally wanted to go over and say hello to Lu Peijun, but at this time he was stared at by so many people, and he didn't want to implicate Lu Peijun. He had to withdraw his gaze and use his spiritual power to send a voice over and say, "Hello, Fellow Daoist Lu."

Lu Peijun replied with a little awkward voice: "Hello."

"Why is Fellow Daoist here?" Shi Wu asked in a voice transmission.

Lu Peijun sent a voice in a angrily voice: "It's not because of you!"

Shi Wu sent a voice in confusion: "Me?"

Lu Peijun sent a voice transmission and explained: "The most circulating news in the third stronghold in the north these days is that a monk named Shiwu made a big fuss about the Lingchen Pavilion and would come to the ninth examination hall in the southwest on the first day of August to participate in the assessment of the lower ninth-grade spiritual chef. After hearing this, I couldn't help but worry that the person was you. I thought that you were like a fellow Taoist, and that cultivation would definitely not be too high, so I hope that the person would just be the same name and surname as you. But when I saw the scene in the audio-visual stone from my master's friend, I was stunned at that time. Why are you lying to me like a fellow Taoist? Is it fun?"

Shi Wu sent a voice to apologize: "I am used to calling people a fellow Taoist when I go out. I must deliberately conceal it and hope that Miss Lu will forgive me."

When Lu Peijun heard Shi Wu's sincere apology, her previous resentment subsided. She was worried about Shi Wu coming again, so she sent a message: "You have made such a big noise in Lingshen Pavilion, why don't you avoid the limelight and come to participate in the assessment after a while?"

Shi Wu sent a voice reply: "If I don't come to participate in this assessment today, I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future."

As soon as Shi Wugang finished speaking, the sky above the ninth examination hall in the southwest suddenly emerged outward, and a beautiful woman wearing colorful clothes and excellent charm came out from inside.

"It's the fairy of Colorful Clothing Ruan Xin!" someone said in the crowd.

After a while, someone echoed: "Fairy Ruan is a powerful figure in the late stage of the Return to Xu. She must have come here for Senior Shi."

When Zhang Tao saw the visitor, he came forward and bowed, "Friends from Dao Ruan."

Ruan Xin replied, "I haven't seen you for three hundred years, and Fellow Daoist Zhang's style is even better than before."
