Chapter 249 Collecting Ore at the Beach and Eating Monster Meat for the First Time
The group landed at the bottom of the cliff and looked out. Several miles away was the beach. The sea was so vast that it seemed to stretch to the horizon.
As I searched along the beach, the setting sun shone on the sea, reflecting shimmering light. A wave crashed against the rocks on the beach, and as it passed, the rocks were instantly illuminated by specks of red light, shimmering in the sunset.
"Look, hematite, all of those... are..."
"Wow, they're all so big, oh my..."
"Ouch, quick, hurry over there..."
Everyone gasped in surprise. Even though Wen Qilin and Wen Qiyuan were middle-aged, the two brothers excitedly hugged each other, laughing like children, and skipped forward.
After the initial excitement, everyone circled the minerals again and again, admiring them until they were satisfied before packing them away.
We collected everything along the coastline, big or small, as long as we saw it, we accepted it with a smile. It's not easy to come all this way, so how could we let it go?
Not content with just doing manual labor, Wen Chengbin's goofy nature resurfaced. "Brother, tell me, why didn't we know to climb that mountain last time?"
"If you ask me, with my previous cultivation level, it would be difficult to climb the mountain."
"That's true, we might not even reach the summit, so-called..."
Before Wen Chengbin could finish speaking, several sounds of fighting suddenly came from ahead.
"Huffing and puffing—"
"Hmph hmph—"
"Ow—"
boom!
Bang!
Damn it, I was so focused on collecting hematite ore that I accidentally got too close to the outer edge of the Yanqian Mountains.
Since we've come across this, let's take a look.
The group quickly gathered the pieces of hematite in front of them and, without prior arrangement, leaped up and sat on a tree branch.
Looking down from above, wow, it's all clear at a glance.
Not far away, under a large tree, a sharp-nosed boar demon, thicker than an ox, was being attacked by two tusked rabbits.
I don't know how they got here.
They were all Qi Refining Level 3 demon beasts. The tusked rabbit was only half the size of the pig demon, so there were two against one in number, and they were equal in size and weight. Their cultivation levels were similar, and they fought fiercely.
The two tusked rabbits used their four tusks to stab the boar demon until it bled profusely. The tusked rabbits themselves were unharmed. Suddenly, the boar demon jumped into a mud pit. The tusked rabbits chased after it to the edge of the mud pit, baring their teeth and roaring, as if to say: "Come up here if you dare, let's fight again, and see if we don't kill you."
The pig demon, lying in the mud, rolled back and forth. Soon, its thick skin was covered with a layer of mud. Amazingly, as soon as the mud covered the pig demon's body, it quickly turned into layers of hard rock.
Having completed his perfect disguise, the sharp-nosed pig demon strode out of the mud pit, only to face the attack of two tusked rabbits once again.
With its hard rock armor protecting it, the tusks of the tusked rabbit could no longer pierce the boar demon this time. Moreover, due to its overwhelming momentum, the tusked rabbit was unable to stop its charge in time, and its sharp tusks actually cracked and broke when they touched the boar demon's rocky skin.
"Awooo—Awooo—"
This is intolerable! These tusks are the tusks' weapons. If their weapons are destroyed, how will they survive? The tusks fought back fiercely, but unfortunately, the sharp-nosed boar demon seized the opportunity and thrust its sharp snout through the tusks' bodies with pinpoint accuracy. Practice makes perfect, and the sharp-nosed boar demon's speed was incredibly fast, taking down two tusks in one fell swoop.
Originally, it was thought that the victorious boar demon would drag its prey away as soon as possible. However, the boar demon squinted its small eyes, looked around, and then stared precisely at one of the trees before slowly walking over.
Oh no, Wenwen is sitting right there in that tree.
Before the sharp-nosed boar demon could get close, Wenwen leaped from the tree and landed steadily on the ground. She took out a longsword with armor-piercing capabilities from her storage bag and stared in the direction of the sharp-nosed boar demon.
The sharp-nosed pig demon, a few feet away, looked at the skinny intruder with disdain, then suddenly swung its body and snorted as it angrily charged at Wenwen.
The others who remained hiding in the tree were all worried for her. It wasn't that they didn't want to help, but the moment Wenwen jumped down, they all heard her say, "Don't move, let me try."
Wenwen watched the sharp-snouted boar demon charging towards her, anticipating its speed and position. Calmly, she dodged aside, her steps shifting half a zhang laterally in an uncanny fashion, thus avoiding the boar demon's furious charge.
The sharp-nosed pig demon crashed into nothingness, and due to inertia, it lurched forward for more than ten feet before coming to a stop.
During this brief moment, Wenwen unleashed a fireball spell, controlling the fireball to strike the pig demon.
As soon as the fireball landed on the pig demon, it quickly spread throughout its entire body, instantly burning off all its fur. With the fur gone, the outer layer of rock cracked and began to fall off.
The pig demon screamed in agony as it burned, and no matter how much it rolled on the ground, the flames on its body continued to burn.
Moments later, the pig demon transformed into a massive roasted whole pig, its exterior black and covered in mud and ash.
The people in the tree stared in disbelief at the scene below, the aroma of roasted meat wafting into their nostrils making their stomachs rumble.
Wenwen's ears twitched slightly as she heard the "Empty City Song" melody. She called out to everyone, "Father, Second Uncle, Eldest Brother, Second Brother, time to eat meat!"
"Hey, hey, coming!"
The group jumped down from the tree and approached the pig demon, drooling all over the ground.
Wen Chengjian: "This guy is huge, which piece of meat should we eat?"
Wen Chengbin: "The hind legs, the hind leg meat is chewy. I just saw it running on its hind legs with great energy. It just finished exercising, so it must taste delicious."
Wen Qilin: "Hahaha, if the pig demon heard what you said, he'd be kicking himself. He'd probably regret running away too fast before he died."
Wen Qiyuan: "You brat, food can't shut you up. Hurry up and come give me a hand."
Wen Chengbin went to the pig demon's hind leg, scraped off the outer layer to reveal the perfectly roasted meat inside, cut off a large piece and handed it to Wenwen, "Little sister, this is for you. You've done a great service, you eat first."
Wenwen took it, sprinkled on the seasoning, and ate it with relish, exclaiming as she ate, "Mmm, delicious! No wonder it's a demon beast, the taste is amazing."
I'm afraid she'll become increasingly picky about food in the future. Having tasted the meat of a demon beast imbued with spiritual energy, she probably won't be able to eat ordinary pork anymore.
Others were full of praise.
"This meat tastes so much better than before."
"Hmm, I'm afraid I won't be able to get used to eating domestic pork anymore."
"Wild boar meat is probably not enough; it would have to be a demon boar."
"Yes, that's right, hahaha..."
It is said that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to
