Chapter 33: Second Body Tempering

During the Eternal True God stage, the Chaotic Heavy Body Art involves three body refinements. If the 'third body refinement' has extremely high requirements for the mysteries of laws and high demands for refining skills, then the requirements for the 'second body refinement' are much lower.

Luo Feng, who grasped the essence of laws, and with the help of 'Shang Tianyan,' one of the top refining masters in Huyang City, coupled with his previous accumulation, thoroughly understood the key points of the second body refinement during this meal.

"The theory is understood, next is practice," Luo Feng said with a smile.

"Theory is the foundation, and practice is the ultimate manifestation of strength," Shang Tianyan smiled. "Since you, Brother Luo He, are refining your body, even if you fail occasionally, you can refine it again. Body refinement is much simpler than refining equipment."

Even if the divine body is mostly destroyed, it can be restored, so the fault tolerance rate for body refinement is of course extremely high! However, the fault tolerance rate for manufacturing weapons, armor, mechanical flow treasures, etc., is much lower.

"Haha, if body refinement was as difficult as refining equipment, the body refinement lineage wouldn't be so prosperous," Luo Feng laughed. There are many who practice body refinement as a secondary skill, but very few who practice 'equipment refining' as a secondary skill.

"In this world, it all comes down to strength. What's the use of being good at refining equipment?" Shang Tianyan shook his head. "When you encounter someone with strong strength, don't you still have to bow your head obediently?"

Luo Feng nodded. His master, Sitting Mountain Guest, could refine God-King level weapons and had many friends, but what was the result?

Faced with the threat from the Food Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom had no choice but to be destroyed. Sitting Mountain Guest didn't place his hopes on those friends, but instead fled to the Universe Ocean.

Asking for help from others is ultimately not as good as relying on oneself!

Inside the small building, Shang Tianyan and Luo Feng were silent for a moment. Shang Tianyan's eyes were dazed, vaguely seeing the figure he had been longing for.

...

Fire Realm Eatery.

Suo Zi was making dishes with his heart. He had been at this small eatery for over an epoch and had gradually learned to handle some ordinary dishes.

"Alright." With a wave of his hand, Suo Zi successfully plated a delicious dish, and another waiter took the plate away.

"Junior Brother Suo Zi's cooking skills are already quite good," the other chefs at the Fire Realm Eatery praised. They were also disciples taken in by Black Butcher and had been following Black Butcher for a longer time.

"Compared to my senior brothers, my cooking skills are still very ordinary," Suo Zi grinned. Being able to start cooking was a big step forward for him.

"Suo Zi, Suo Zi!" Suddenly a shout rang out.

Hearing this, Suo Zi said, "My brother is here, I'll go out for a bit."

The other chefs didn't care much, after all, Suo Zi had just started and could only make a few relatively easy dishes, not yet a mainstay.

Suo Zi went outside and immediately saw Suo Yun waiting.

"Suo Yun." Suo Zi was surprised when he saw him. "You..."

Suo Yun was full of vigor, with a bright smile: "I broke through, I finally broke through to the Void True God realm."

"That's great." Suo Zi was excited, "We've been in Huyang City for over an epoch, and you've finally broken through to the Void True God realm."

They came to the city for opportunity! One became a guard for the Diao Rong family, and the other was recruited into the Fire Realm Eatery.

"I seized the opportunity, obtained some resources bestowed by the Diao Rong family's young mistress, refined my bloodline, and finally broke through in one fell swoop." Suo Yun looked at his brother, "Suo Zi, we were the most talented in the tribe. With ordinary cultivation methods, we reached the True God Ninth Layer at a young age. In Huyang City, as long as you get powerful cultivation methods and some resources... I can become a Void True God, and you can too!"

Suo Zi was also thrilled to hear this.

Their talents were indeed similar, and the tribe leader felt that these two young juniors could go to Huyang City to make a name for themselves.

"I've almost exhausted my resources and can't help you for the time being," Suo Yun said. "But now that I'm a Void True God, it's easy to join a force and become a middle-level member. I'll take you in then! You and I, brothers, working together, I believe you'll soon become a Void True God too."

"I'm doing pretty well at the Fire Realm Eatery, and my master is very good to me," Suo Zi said quickly.

"When will you be able to gather Chaos Crystals by burying yourself in cooking?" Suo Yun turned to leave, "Wait patiently, I'll pull you over once I've established myself in the new force."

Suo Yun had been hiding in his residence, focusing on cultivation, for fear of being slaughtered and plundered, and finally broke through in one fell swoop with resources.

Now he was at his most high-spirited, feeling that his brother Suo Zi was being very foolish by being a cook.

"Sigh." Suo Zi watched his brother leave.

"Suo Zi." Black Butcher walked up.

"Master." Suo Zi said respectfully. Because of his consistently good performance and Luo Feng's connections, he had been formally accepted as a disciple by Black Butcher.

"Your senior brother is right, it's very slow to accumulate resources as a cook," Black Butcher said. "Even I, after a long time, have accumulated very limited resources. Perhaps following your brother will give you a brighter future."

Suo Zi shook his head: "When we hunted together in the tribe, Suo Yun liked to take risks. He still likes to take risks in Huyang City. He can succeed ten times, but if he fails once, it's over! Before, the entire Diao Rong family's cave dwelling, including all the living beings and guards, were killed. He was only lucky to survive by guarding Lord Luo He at the Fire Realm Eatery. I advised him, but he wouldn't listen. Master, I'd rather stay at the Fire Realm Eatery to learn my craft."

"Since you're willing to stay at the Fire Realm Eatery, I naturally won't mistreat you," Black Butcher smiled and nodded. Only if this disciple had the heart to settle down in the Fire Realm Eatery could he cultivate him with more peace of mind.

"I feel that the art of cooking is more suitable for me," Suo Zi said. "The art of cooking, mobilizing divine power and mental will, is also cultivation."

Black Butcher nodded in satisfaction before leaving.

As soon as the owner left, the other waiters immediately gathered around.

"Suo Zi, your brother has become a Void True God?"

"That's amazing, you came to Huyang City for over an epoch and became a Void True God. I've been struggling for thousands of epochs and am only at the True God Eighth Layer."

"Senior Brother Suo Zi was already at the True God Ninth Layer in the tribe, his talent is much higher than yours and mine."

The waiters said, very envious. Their abilities were much worse than Suo Zi's, and most of them had not been formally accepted as disciples by Black Butcher.

Suo Zi smiled, but his mood was also a bit complicated.

He was very decisive in front of his master, and what he said was indeed the truth. But how could he not be a little stimulated that his brother 'Suo Yun,' who had grown up together, had become a Void True God?"Could it be that Suo Yun is right, and I have to take risks to seize opportunities?" Suo Zi pondered, "But the clan leader said that when hunting, it's better to give up ten opportunities than to gamble with your life."

"The culinary path is slower, but more stable. As long as I spend hundreds of epochs, I will definitely gather enough resources," Suo Zi thought.

...

Inside a small building, Luo Feng also saw the scene of Suo Zi and Suo Yun meeting. These two brothers entered Hu Yang City with him, so there was some connection.

"The bottom-level True Gods in Hu Yang City are struggling." Shang Tianyan looked outside, "Most of them have to risk their lives to seize opportunities, but even if they risk their lives to get resources, they generally fail to break through. This Suo Yun is quite talented and succeeded in breaking through in one fell swoop."

Luo Feng nodded, "Both of them are quite talented. Black Butcher's culinary skills are as exquisite as refining weapons and medicine, and require a perfect combination of divine power and will to create delicious food that affects the mind. Suo Zi was able to get started so quickly, which also shows his talent."

Shang Tianyan held his wine glass and said leisurely, "They are both talented, but among the massive number of True Gods in Hu Yang City, most are not talented."

"Which one do you admire?" Luo Feng asked with a smile.

"If it were me when I was young, I would admire Suo Yun more. As for now?" Shang Tianyan finished his wine, "I admire Suo Zi more."

Luo Feng nodded, his gaze sweeping over some of the envious waiters in the Fire Realm Food Hall.

"In the path of cultivation, avoid greed! Compared to the ordinary waiters in the Fire Realm Food Hall, Suo Zi is already very lucky." Luo Feng got up.

"Yes, avoid greed!" Shang Tianyan nodded, "It's easier said than done, but how many strong people can do it? I once made the mistake of greed. Some mistakes can be corrected. Some mistakes, once made, cannot be corrected!"

Luo Feng nodded and said, "Brother Shang, I will go into seclusion after I go back this time. If you have anything urgent, you can also send a message to Rosa."

When in seclusion, one needs to be fully invested, and the message token will naturally be closed. Otherwise, messages from the Dark Hall of Yanfeng Pavilion and some familiar friends will affect Luo Feng's focus.

As long as the message is given to Rosa, Rosa can contact Luo Feng through telepathy.

"Okay." Shang Tianyan nodded and smiled, "I will definitely contact you if there is anything urgent."

The two of them walked out together, and the Fire Realm Hall Master, Black Butcher, immediately came to see them off, sending off the two Eternal True Gods.

...

After leaving the Fire Realm Food Hall, Luo Feng took Molo Sa and Mo Yu Qingyan to the Yanfeng Pavilion to purchase a large number of materials needed for the second body refinement.

"For the first body refinement, I spent about 100,000 Cosmos Sand's worth of materials. Based on my understanding of the second body refinement, I estimate that I will need 650,000 Cosmos Sand's worth of materials," Luo Feng thought, "Considering there will be some losses, prepare more and buy 700,000 Cosmos Sand's worth."

The Yanfeng Pavilion is worthy of being a famous chamber of commerce throughout the Origin Continent. The materials needed for 700,000 Cosmos Sand were gathered in just the time it took to drink a few cups of wine and chat.

"Because some materials are not commonly used, we have used some from partner chambers of commerce this time," said the Vice-Pavilion Master of Yanfeng Pavilion, "If Brother Luohe wants to buy more, it is best to first send an order through the Dark Hall. We can prepare in advance."

After all, they are just a branch of a large city, and their storage is limited.

"Okay." Luo Feng picked up the jade bottle. This jade bottle contained a massive amount of materials worth 700,000 Cosmos Sand, and many materials were piled up like mountains.

The Chaos Great Strength Diagram does not consume much resources in itself, but Luo Feng's divine body is too huge!

"Next time will be the third body refinement, and the required materials will be several times more. I have to make a reservation in advance," Luo Feng thought, "But I can't afford so many materials for the time being, I'm still too poor!"

After purchasing the materials, Luo Feng quickly left with his two servants.

Whoosh!

Flying all the way back to the cave, Luo Feng put away the flying boat, and Mo Luo Sa and Mo Yu Qingyan naturally landed aside.

"Qingyan," Luo Feng instructed, "I am preparing to go into seclusion for a long time, so you don't need to stay in the cave all the time. You can go home and see your family at any time."

"Thank you, Master." Mo Yu Qingyan revealed a look of joy. He hadn't been back since following Luo Feng.

"What about me? Can I go out?" Mo Luo Sa asked repeatedly. The last time the master was in seclusion was for more than an epoch.

"As long as you don't cause trouble, you can go anywhere in Hu Yang City." Luo Feng said, and flew directly towards the underground hall. After flying in, the underground hall doors closed with a rumbling sound, and the formation operated to isolate the inside and outside.

Luo Feng had already begun his seclusion.

"Lord Rosa, then I'll go back first." Mo Yu Qingyan said respectfully.

"Go, go, I'm going out to stroll around too." Mo Luo Sa raised his eyebrows and flew out of the cave in one step. "Master only goes to those places back and forth, it's too boring! There are many fun places in Hu Yang City!"

The two servants left one after the other.

The entire cave was quiet, leaving only Luo Feng in seclusion.
