C317 The Essence Lies in the Body
The purple flaming branch made a crackling sound, and Ye Hong Tian turned the sky into a huge stick, skewering the tiger's corpse on top of the grill.
Only Ye Hongtian would use a peerless weapon for barbecuing.
After repeated grilling, the tiger on the grill released a tempting aroma of meat. Ye Hong Tian couldn't help but lick his lips.
He took out all the seasoning from his Cosmos Sack and used his soul power to control the flavorings to pour the flavorings onto the giant tiger meat on the grill. After sprinkling the giant tiger's entire body, Ye Hongtian also lost more than half of the seasoning.
After putting away the seasoning, Ye Hongtian drooled as he looked at the giant tiger on the grill. Because of the seasoning, the already fragrant meat became even more fragrant.
Moreover, not only was the fragrance tempting, even the appearance would make one's appetite soar. Even Hairy Ball, who could only eat vegetarian food, was attracted by the meat fragrance of the roast meat at this time. Zi Ming's two eyes were even shining.
After roasting for a while, the fragrance of the roasted meat had already spread far away. Many animals in the Star Choosing Secret Realm had gathered in this direction.
However, these animals were relatively weak. Once Ye Hong Tian released his aura, they didn't dare to approach. They could only watch the roasted meat on the grill from afar.
Ye Hong Tian tore off a piece of meat from the roasted meat and tasted it. When he felt that the taste was almost there, he immediately extinguished the fire below.
At this moment, a giant ape seemed to have noticed that Ye Hongtian had finished roasting the meat. It roared and rushed towards Ye Hongtian.
This huge ape had the cultivation of the third layer of the Void Origin Stage. Its strength should be around the fifth layer of the Void Origin Stage. Among the surrounding wild beasts, it should be the strongest.
Unfortunately, Ye Hong Tian had killed a huge tiger of the eighth layer of the Void Origin Stage. A huge ape of the third layer of the Void Origin Stage was not enough for him to stretch his muscles and bones.
Just as the huge ape was about to reach him, Ye Hong Tian flashed and appeared above the huge ape's head. He bent his finger and lightly flicked the huge ape's forehead. A terrifying power instantly sent the huge ape flying.
The giant ape that was sent flying screamed and fainted. Blood flowed out of its forehead. It was injured by Ye Hong Tian in the blink of an eye.
When the surrounding beasts saw that the strongest ape had been injured by Ye Hongtian, they instantly panicked and started to flee in all directions.
In an instant, all the beasts around Ye Hongtian had escaped. Only the huge ape that was injured by Ye Hongtian was left lying unconscious on the ground.
"He escaped really quickly. Seeing that this giant ape's courage is commendable, I'll reward him with a piece of meat." Ye Hong Tian looked at the unconscious giant ape and muttered.
He tore off a piece of meat the size of a piece of meat and threw it on the giant ape's body. The giant ape was woken up by this piece of meat. When it saw the meat on its body, it jumped up in excitement.
It called out to Ye Hongtian a few times before swallowing the piece of meat. The human-head-sized piece of meat appeared to be the size of a tooth of the giant ape.
However, this piece of meat actually made the giant ape break through to the fourth level of the Void Origin Stage. Ye Hongtian was shocked.
He didn't realize how the giant ape was going to break through to the fourth level of the Void Origin Stage. However, it was such a small piece of meat that made the giant ape break through to the next level. That was ridiculous.
Could it be that eating each other's bodies was the evolution law of the Star Choosing Secret Realm? Or was it because the huge tiger's flesh contained powerful energy?
He turned around and fiercely pulled out a tiger leg. He bit down on a large piece of meat, and then slowly chewed and swallowed it.
After Ye Hong Tian ate the meat, he didn't feel any improvement in his cultivation base. Instead, he looked strangely at the giant ape who had made a breakthrough not far away. Then, he quickly chewed off the entire leg of the tiger in his hand.
Ye Hong Tian didn't feel any changes in his body after eating the entire tiger leg. He was just about to tear off a few pieces of meat to eat when a terrifying energy erupted from his stomach.
The energy kept rolling in Ye Hong Tian's stomach. Fortunately, Ye Hong Tian reacted in time and guided the energy to every part of his body. Otherwise, he would have spat it out.
The terrifying energy was divided into several parts and absorbed by different parts of his body.
The separated energy was no longer terrifying. It was instantly absorbed by Ye Hongtian.
"There is indeed energy contained in the body. Could it be that the reason why the beasts here don't have beast cores is because they have integrated their essence into the body?" Ye Hong Tian said in surprise.
He had long felt that there was a problem with the beasts in the Star Selection Mystic Realm not having beast cores. It turned out that the reason why there were no beast cores was because these beasts did not have beast cores at all.
The energy that was used to condense beast cores had been integrated into his body. This was also the reason why they had not reached the level of demon beasts even though they were all at the Void Origin Stage.2
He closed his eyes and checked his own cultivation level. Ye Hongtian found that there was basically no change in his cultivation level. Although he had absorbed the energy, it did not allow him to make any breakthrough.
The energy contained in one of the tiger's legs might be able to help the giant ape make another breakthrough. However, Ye Hongtian only helped Ye Hongtian stabilize the foundation of the first level of the Void Origin Stage.
However, since he knew that grilling meat with the giant tiger's corpse could help him improve his cultivation level, Ye Hongtian could not waste even a little bit of meat. After eating all the grilled meat, he should at least make a breakthrough in his cultivation level.
Thinking of this, Ye Hongtian licked his lips. He used his hand to cut out a piece of meat bigger than the others and started to chew.
Zi Ming, who was originally playing with Hairy Ball, also came over when he saw Ye Hongtian eating so happily. He first tore off a small piece and tasted it. Then, he began to gorge himself.
Hairy Ball, who was squatting by the side, felt that the taste was very fragrant, but it couldn't be eaten. Who asked him to only eat vegetarian food? He randomly picked a tree and picked a pine fruit to eat.
Ye Hong Tian and Zi Ming ate like this for an entire morning. They ate until noon before the two of them finished eating the entire tiger.
If such a large tiger was eaten by an ordinary person, they might not be able to finish it even after a few months. However, they were martial artists. They could freely control their bodily functions, and when needed, they could digest themselves faster. They could eat things that far exceeded the appetite of ordinary people.
However, even if the two of them sped up their digestion, they still ate their stomachs like rubber balls, lying on the ground and burping without listening.
Not long after, their stomachs returned to their original state. Ye Hong Tian rubbed his stomach and sat up with his legs crossed. He closed his eyes and started to process the energy stored in his body.
This time, the energy was a little too much. Just now, he had been eating and opening up ten thousand tree seeds to help him digest. His entire body was filled with energy.
He hurriedly opened the ten thousand tree seeds in his dantian and crazily digested the energy in his body. He spread the energy to every part of his body so that every part of his body could absorb the energy.
