Lu Yu’s eyes lit up as he looked at the huge Earth Dragon corpse.

This Earth Dragon was not just an S-class Fearsome Beast, it was a rare dragon-type Fearsome Beast too.

Though it was only an Earth Dragon with only a trace of dragon bloodline, it was still extremely powerful. At the same time, it meant that its body was filled with treasures!

Lu Yu raised the Blood Emperor Battle Saber and started cutting it up.

After peeling off the skin and sucking out the marrow, Lu Yu cut off the dragon claws and legs, then put them away properly.

Almost all of these things were treasures.

With his Gluttony Talent, eating any one of these items would almost always bring him a good increase in strength.

However, Lu Yu didn’t eat any of them. Instead, he put them all into the storage in his interspatial ring, almost filling it to the brim.

With his previous experience, Lu Yu was well aware that the higher the level of the Fearsome Beast, the greater the improvement he would receive if he ate it after using a special cooking method.

With such important high-grade ingredients, Lu Yu naturally wanted to cook it properly to eat in future, and not simply cook them haphazardly now to eat.

Besides, Lu Yu wanted to reserve his stomach to eat the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth meat cooked with the Spring Water Stewing method later.

The first method in the Sky Valley Culinary Methods was relatively simple, but the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth meat cooked in that method already brought Lu Yu a very good improvement.

If he used the second method, there would definitely be an extremely awesome increase.

At this moment, Lu Yu was excitedly looking forward to seeing how amazing this second cooking method was.

Now that he had cleaned up the corpse of the Earth Dragon, Lu Yu walked straight into the huge cave.

This was the lair of the Earth Dragon and also the core of the mine. Lu Yu could probably find that last ingredient that he lacked, the rose rock salt!

After entering the mine, all kinds of dazzling lights appeared in front of Lu Yu’s eyes. Shielding his eyes for a good look, he realized they were all kinds of rare mineral ores.

Among the very few that Lu Yu could recognize, solid gold was thrown on one side here, seemingly because it was the lowest grade ore.

However, Lu Yu accepted all of these precious ores without exception.

At the same time, Lu Yu also found the last ingredient he lacked in a corner, the rose rock salt.

It looked like stone powder and was red in color. On the outside, it looked somewhat similar to a rose.

However, when he picked it up and observed it carefully, there was a salty smell akin to coarse salt, yet the taste was somewhat different.

Lu Yu strolled around the cave again. Apart from the precious ores he saw earlier, he didn’t find any other treasures.

It seemed that this Earth Dragon was a little poor. Didn’t they say that dragon-type Fearsome Beasts liked to collect treasures?

However, Lu Yu didn’t mind either. He was already satisfied with locating the rose rock salt.

After returning outside, Lu Yu found some wood, then used his A-class skill, Red Lotus Battle Energy to start a fire.

Although the Sky Valley Culinary Methods did not specify any requirements for the flames, the flames of Red Lotus Battle Energy were still better than ordinary flames, so the food made using its flames would be better too.

With Lu Yu’s Gluttony Talent, not only the class of the ingredients, the cooking method, and even the final taste could affect his final gains, so every step was extremely crucial.

Lu Yu took out the remaining parts of the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth corpse from his storage ring and began preparing it.

The process now was more complicated, and the requirements for ingredients and seasonings were higher.

In addition, it would take a long time to stew it, almost an hour in fact. In between, he would have to add the butter fat of the Blood-sucking Rhinoceros and the rose rock salt repeatedly.

The entire process had to be done using the spring water from the Sky Spring. There must not be a single drop of normal water in it. The requirements were extremely strict.

Song Yu and the others were very curious when they saw Lu Yu cooking, and using the flesh of Fearsome Beast no less.

“This seems to be the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth meat from the last Fearsome Beasts siege on the city. It is A-class level. Can Captain Lu eat and absorb such high-level Fearsome Beast meat?” Qin Yong asked curiously.

Seeing this, the other team members also looked at him with curiosity and doubt.

The higher the level of a Fearsome Beast, the more nutrients and energy it contained, but it also became increasingly more difficult to absorb.

Ordinary people simply could not digest any Fearsome Beast meat at all.

Even martial arts practitioners could only digest the meat of relatively low-level Fearsome Beasts.

Occasionally, some extremely special method could be used to cook high-level Fearsome Beast meat before it could be digested by martial arts practitioners.

The ingredients that Lu Yu was using now was the meat of an A-class Fearsome Beast, the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth.

Evidently, very few people could digest such high-level Fearsome Beast meat.

At this time, Chu Shiyu’s eyes lit up when she saw Lu Yu’s complicated cooking method. She said, “What an amazing cooking method. This must be some special method, which may make the Fearsome Beast meat easier to digest after cooking.”

At this moment, Song Yu recalled her father’s speculation that Lu Yu might be able to increase his strength by consuming the meat of Fearsome Beasts.

Song Yu also found Lu Yu’s current cooking method familiar. After a while, she remembered that it was one of her family’s secret cooking methods for Fearsome Beast meat: Spring Water Stewing.

No wonder Lu Yu went deep into the cave appearing to look for something. He must have gone there to look for some ingredients. Song Yu immediately guessed the gist of it.

As the beloved daughter of the Song family’s patriarch, Song Yu had naturally eaten the meat of Fearsome Beasts cooked using the second method of the Sky Valley Culinary Methods.

However, even after cooking and eating the dish without any problems, she was able to digest and absorb only a small portion of the power from the high-level Fearsome Beast meat. She couldn’t absorb all of it.

She would need to have a special physique to be able to digest and absorb a large amount of power from the meat of high-level Fearsome Beasts to increase her strength.

For ordinary martial arts practitioners like them, even if they knew the Sky Valley Culinary Methods, they could only increase their strength just slightly at most. They could not greatly increase their strength, so it was still somewhat useless to them.

At this moment, Song Yu became very curious. Just how much of the energy within could Lu Yu absorb and how much improvement could he obtain from eating the A-class Fearsome Beast meat cooked using the second method of the Sky Valley Culinary Methods?

Previously, Song Yu also had heard from her father that if one had a truly special physique, the second method of cooking in the Sky Valley Culinary Methods was extremely powerful. After eating the meat of a high-level Fearsome Beast, it was rumored that one could obtain a massive increase in strength and directly level up by one major level. It was truly unbelievable.

However, this was only a rumor, and no one knew if it was true or not. In the entire history of the Song family’s training, with the help of the Spring Water Stewing method of the Sky Valley Culinary Methods, they had at most advanced two minor levels in one go. This was already the best record.

At this moment, Lu Yu was almost done cooking. He was applying the butter fat of the Blood-sucking Rhinoceros and rose rock salt for the seventh and last time. With the final seasoning, the final flavor was completed.

Although it wasn’t quite finished yet, it was already emitting an extremely fragrant and alluring aroma.

When Song Yu and the others caught a whiff of the smell, they felt hungry immediately. Somehow, they got the feeling that they had never smelled such delicious food before..
