Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating



77 Mammoth Meat in Salt, Butterfat Spring Water

Everyone watched intently as Lu Yu used a strange method to cook the meat of the A-class Fearsome Beast, the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth.

Everyone was amazed by this fragrant aroma.

“Why… why does this smell so good?”

“I’ve never smelled anything so good. This must be really delicious!”

“Unfortunately, it’s an A-class Fearsome Beast meat. We can’t eat it at all.”

“They say that after I become stronger, I can eat higher-level Fearsome Beast meat. I wonder when I can eat A-class Fearsome Beast meat.”

“Captain Lu, what kind of cooking method is this? Why haven’t we seen it before?”

“…”

Everyone looked hungrily at the delicious food that Lu Yu was preparing with greedy anticipation. They were all salivating and almost drooled.

After a few days of tumultuous clashes, plus today’s battle, they were absolutely famished.

The portable dry food they brought was extremely hard and rough. Obviously, it was not as delicious as the delicacy spread before their eyes.

Especially when it was a delicacy they had never seen before.

However, everyone was feeling helpless. They knew that they could not eat the meat of an A-class Fearsome Beast at all. They would not be able to absorb any of its nutrients. Instead, it might lead to all kinds of undesirable effects on their bodies.

When Song Yu saw this, she said with a baffled expression, “If I’m not wrong, this should be the Spring Water Stewing method described in the Sky Valley Culinary Methods. If this is the case, then ordinary martial arts experts should also be able to consume the Fearsome Beast meat cooked in this manner.”

When everyone heard this, hope appeared in their eyes as they looked at Lu Yu’s delicious food with excitement.

However, they also understood that this was a valuable A-class Fearsome Beast meat after all. Lu Yu had used such a rare special cooking method and these precious seasonings to make it. The cost involved was extremely high.

If Lu Yu did not take the initiative to offer it to them, they would be too embarrassed to ask for it.

At this time, Lu Yu had already completed the last step of cooking. He covered the pot to continue the stewing, locking in all the nutrients and fragrance.

At the same time, Lu Yu activated his A-class skill Red Lotus Battle Energy and increased the strength of the flames, then finally used a large fire to thicken the broth.

Seeing that it was almost done, Lu Yu removed the pot from the fire.

As the area became inundated with the delectable fragrance, it made everyone’s appetite increase enormously.

At this moment, Lu Yu looked at the mammoth meat in the pot. Under the spring water stewing, as steaming white hot air rose up, the color of the meat appeared white with a hint of red, and within the red parts, a hint of yellow showed through.

When Lu Yu repeatedly smeared the Blood-sucking Rhinoceros’ butter fat and rose rock salt on it seven times,

the combination of the Blood-sucking Rhinoceros’ butter fat and the rose rock salt produced a special reaction that formed an entirely different orange-red color.

This was also the reason the Spring Water Stewing method of the Sky Valley Culinary Methods needed these two ingredients.

After more than an hour of special cooking, Lu Yu finally finished cooking the Scarlet Shaggy Mammoth meat marinated with Blood-sucking Rhinoceros’ butter fat and rose rock salt and stewed in spring water!

Lu Yu was already starving like crazy. He quickly picked it up and started eating.

The moment he took one mouthful, the firmness of the mammoth meat, softened by the spring water stewing, gave an extremely unique taste.

At the same time, due to the presence of the rose rock salt and the spring water from the Sky Spring, there was a natural sweetness in the delightful taste. It was extremely delectable but not cloying or greasy.

The moment he swallowed the meat, Lu Yu could feel a hot sensation on his lower abdomen. Then, as this hot sensation spread throughout his body, seeping into every corner of his being, Lu Yu could clearly feel his strength and health vitality rising at a rate visible to the naked eye!

Lu Yu was pleasantly surprised. He didn’t expect that eating just a mouthful of this mammoth meat, marinated in rock salt and rhinoceros butter fat and stewed in spring water would have such a discernible effect.

Previously, even if Lu Yu had eaten a full plate of mammoth meat, it didn’t yield such a powerful effect for him.

There was no doubt now that the Spring Water Stewing method of the Sky Valley Culinary Methods was extremely powerful.

Such rare ingredients paired with many precious seasonings, then cooked with a special cooking method, to produce such an amazing effect. It was truly magical.

Lu Yu hurriedly started eating in big mouthfuls.

Lu Yu was already famished to begin with. Earlier, he had deliberately kept an empty stomach in order to eat the mammoth meat, marinated in rock salt and rhinoceros butter fat and stewed in spring water. Now, he no longer cared about anything else and began devouring the meat ravenously.

All around him, Song Yu, Qin Yong, and the others were drooling as they watched him feast by himself.

The fully-cooked mammoth meat was extremely appetizing in both aroma and appearance.

Now that they saw Lu Yu wolfing down the meat with complete disregard for his image, they were even more convinced that this mammoth meat was incomparably delicious.

However, from the moment Lu Yu began cooking the mammoth meat until now, he had been totally engrossed in what he was doing and didn’t notice the few people beside him at all.

As Lu Yu immersed himself in wolfing down large mouthfuls of meat continuously, his body also underwent tremendous changes.

Soon, Lu Yu finished eating one of the mammoth’s enormous legs. It was more than half the size of a human.

Finally, at this point, Lu Yu felt satiated. He stopped eating and burped loudly.

When the other people near him saw this, they were aghast. They couldn’t believe that Lu Yu could eat so much, that he was able to finish off a leg of meat that was bigger than half a human in such a short time.

After Lu Yu finished eating, he could feel his entire body heat up. His strength was about to advance to the next level.

Lu Yu was extremely surprised. He hadn’t expected such a rapid effect.

As everyone knew, Lu Yu had just crossed over to the Grand Master realm.

After reaching the Grand Master Realm, it was extremely difficult to advance to every next small level.

Lu Yu hurriedly meditated and focused on refining the power in his body. He maintained his inner composure and prepared to advance to the next level.

When Song Yu saw this scene, she immediately exclaimed in a low voice, “Is Lu Yu going to advance again? He’s so amazing! He can advance to the next level just by eating!”

Song Yu knew a lot about the Sky Valley Culinary Methods. Though using this special cooking method to cook Fearsome Beast meat could increase a cultivator’s strength or even increase his realm,

the nutrients were absorbed fully but refined slowly. They needed a long period of continuous absorption before they could completely absorb everything. Only then could they finally increase their strength or advance to the next realm.

Song Yu had never come across someone like Lu Yu, who could digest a portion of it right after eating it and directly advance to the next realm.

Song Yu stared at Lu Yu in front of her in utter shock. Clearly, part of the reason it could have such an amazing effect was due to the Sky Valley Culinary Method, but more importantly, it must be because of Lu Yu’s unique physique.

At this moment, Song Yu couldn’t help feeling envious of Lu Yu for having such a heaven-defying talent.

Other cultivators had to train painstakingly or use extremely rare medicinal pills to increase their strength.

Lu Yu had such a heaven-defying physique, so it was extremely easy for him. He could increase his strength or even his realm simply by consuming food made from high-level Fearsome Beasts!

Seeing this, Chu Shiyu was also a little surprised. “Didn’t he just break through to the Grand Master level today? Why has he advanced again?”

Qin Yong and the others were also in a state of disbelief. They discussed in low voices, afraid that they would disrupt Lu Yu’s concentration at this critical moment.

“Captain Lu is too amazing.”

“All of us look up to these Grand Masters so much, but Captain Lu is still able to increase his strength so quickly at the Grand Master level. He’s simply too incredible!”

He is indeed worthy of being my idol. Honorable Mr. Lu, you’re too unbelievable!”

“…”

As everyone was discussing in low voices, a terrifying aura emanated from Lu Yu’s body as he advanced to the next level!
