Chu Mo glanced and found that the person approaching was the young girl who had been with the Luo family brothers earlier. From their conversation, he learned that her name seemed to be Dong Yu.
However, Chu Mo didn't have a favourable impression of this girl. Although she hadn't taken any direct action previously, her words and attitude towards him hadn't been respectful in the slightest. Outside, even though the rules of the Phantom God Realm would protect him, Chu Mo had to be cautious, in case he encountered someone reckless willing to employ forbidden techniques to get rid of him.
But here, despite being at the peak of the Heavenly Heart Realm himself, Chu Mo was not afraid of Dong Yu trying anything against him.
"Who are you?" Chu Mo asked in a cold tone, glancing at Dong Yu.
"Oh, come on... we met outside just now!" Dong Yu, seemingly ignoring Chu Mo's cold demeanor, walked over directly, took a few strong sniffs, and exclaimed, "That smells awesome!"
Chu Mo gave the thick-skinned beauty a cold look and retorted, "Aren't you, a girl of heavenly grace, afraid of losing your status by speaking with a worthless person like me?"
"Hee hee, why are you taking it so seriously when I was just saying casually?" Dong Yu asked innocently, giggling at Chu Mo, "C'mon, you're a man. Could you not be so petty?"
Then she went ahead to sit across Chu Mo, eagerly looking at the hedgehog on the skewer that was now turning golden brown from the roasting.
This was no ordinary hedgehog, and the fire Chu Mo used for roasting it was not ordinary fire. It contained the supernatural Samadhi Real Fire. A mere mortal fire could not even dry out the blood on its surface.
Although Dong Yu's abilities were suppressed here, her discerning eye wasn't. She was somewhat surprised and said, "A supernatural fire... with your realm... you actually possess a supernatural fire?"
She didn't recognize the Samadhi Real Fire but she could feel a powerful supernatural fire existing within the pile of firewood. It was that distinctive fire that made the roasted hedgehog golden and delicious.
"What's it to you?" Chu Mo, looking as cold as ever, grabbed the skewer, didn't even glance at Dong Yu, and took a big bite. The rich and hot flavor instantly filled Chu Mo's mouth.
As soon as the meat of the exotic hedgehog entered Chu Mo's mouth, it turned into essence energy that flowed into his body.
His almost depleted elixir field was instantly refilled by this wave of essence energy.
The essence energy quickly converted into power, flowing through Chu Mo's limbs.
There was no longer any doubt that this hedgehog's meat was nothing short of a treasure!
"Hey! Can't you be more generous? I only spoke the truth. Isn't that a bit fair?" Dong Yu, seeing Chu Mo enjoying the meat without a thought of sharing, began to feel anxious.
"You're funny. Do you think I should be polite because you're speaking truths?" Chu Mo gave Dong Yu another cold look, "I find your 'truths' annoying, so why should I show you any courtesy?"
"You..." Dong Yu couldn't help but roll her eyes. She was eager to leave but was tempted by the grilled hedgehog in Chu Mo's hand and really wanted a piece of it.
Unlike Chu Mo, these members of the great clans had a deep understanding of the entire Phantom God Realm.
Although getting inside this minor world was not easy, if one was lucky, it was not too difficult either, just like today.
However, gaining something inside it was extremely challenging!
Even without considering the treasures inside the minor world, one wouldn't probably recognize them without a great stroke of chance, even when they literally bumped into them.
Not every treasure would emit an aura that could be easily perceived by others!
Those terrifying beasts inside the minor world alone could give all cultivators a hard time.
In the majority of small worlds, there are a set of self-established laws, which are often harsh for outsiders.
Just like this small world that possibly contains the Five Elements of water, no matter how advanced your realm is, once you enter, you'll be suppressed to the Innate Realm.
Pitifully, cultivators from the Spirit and Immortal Realms can fare better since they've mostly experienced the Innate Realm before and know what it feels like. But these Heavenly Geniuses from the Heavenly Realm, most of them have no idea what the Innate Realm feels like!
The moment they were born, they were more or less in the Innate Realm, and once they started to have memories, they were already undergoing Foundation Establishment!
So after entering a small world, the more the Heavenly Geniuses come from advanced worlds, the less likely they are to adapt.
Ironically, they are very well aware of the value of various creatures in the small world.
For example, the hedgehog that Chu Mo casually roasted in his hands, Dong Yu recognized at a glance that it was a legendary Snow Hedgehog, an extremely rare mythical beast.
Although it's just a mythical beast and doesn't seem high-grade, in fact, the Snow Hedgehog is also well-known in the Heavenly Realm!
The first notable feature is its spikes, they're considered treasures, incomparably hard. Even divine weapons would find it difficult to cut them off. If these spikes fall into the hands of a master artifact forger and made into a dharma instrument, it would practically be indestructible.
Then there's its skin, a key material for making battle clothing. If one can collect dozens of Snow Hedgehog skins to make a cloak, the value... would be immeasurable.
Last but not least, the most attractive thing is the meat of the Snow Hedgehog!
Not only does it contain strong essence energy coveted by cultivators in the Heavenly Realm to heal their primal wounds, but it is also ranked high on the Heavenly Realm's list of culinary rarities. It's a delicacy that all food connoisseurs dream of.
However, it needs to be prepared using a special method by an advanced cultivator to fully bring out the most exquisite taste of the Snow Hedgehog's meat. In comparison, Chu Mo's approach was simply a waste.
Thus, when Dong Yu confirmed Chu Mo's roast was Snow Hedgehog, even though she looked down on his ordinary status, she couldn't help but curse him in her heart for wasting such a delicacy while leaning in to have a taste.
Indeed, Dong Yu might be a proud genius girl, but deep down, she's a laudable foodie!
The meat of a Snow Hedgehog, even for a person as noble as her, she had never tasted it!
A blink of an eye later, Chu Mo has finished half of the Snow Hedgehog meat, not just the meat, he didn't even spit out a bone!
In essence, it was so delicious!
Chu Mo's method, in Dong Yu's point of view, though crude, Snow Hedgehog meat itself was an absolute delicacy to begin with. Regardless of the number of condiments he used, even eating it raw... it would still be top-notch!
Not only was it delicious, the surging essence energy also greatly invigorated Chu Mo's spirit. Just half a Snow Hedgehog had vaguely... stirred within Chu Mo an uncontrollable urge to break through to the Innate Realm!
Therefore, Chu Mo had no choice but to operate the Heaven's Will My Will technique to continuously suppress that volatility in his elixir field.
Following the suppression of the elixir field by Chu Mo himself, a large amount of essence energy started to run rampant in his body, scattering throughout his four limbs and bones, continuously strengthening his physique, faintly desiring to break through the shackles of the eighth level, heading straight towards the ninth level.
Chu Mo's long black hair started to glow, and his pristine eyes sparkled, looking more like gemstones.
Dong Yu even had a compulsive urge to snatch it as she watched Chu Mo ready to eat the other half. Finally, she couldn't hold back...(To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to qidian.com to vote, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
