Chapter 6318: Beat That Bull “Young Noble, let’s eat first and then talk.” The monarch avoided the question. Li Qiye chuckled and wasn’t in a hurry to pry. “Zzz...” The colorful liver released oil, adding to the tempting aroma. It pulsed brightly with dao runes, allowing any eater to have a taste of the dao. “Okay, good.” The monarch moved the finished dish to the table and said: “Young Noble, try my cooking?” Li Qiye picked up a piece and began. It melted in his mouth right away. Normally, such a liver brimmed with bestial power. However, the roasting process softened this nature. Its power flowed gently through Li Qiye’s body. This feeling could make the soul leave the body in joy. “It’s good.” Of course, Li Qiye had better in the past. Weaker cultivators could experience a dao breakthrough from consuming this liver, perhaps two or three levels. This was under the condition that they survived. The monarch’s cooking weakened the violent nature of the liver so anyone could have had a taste without exploding. “It’s good.” The monarch’s mouth became oily. Other creatures could only watch, not daring to make a move. It didn’t take long before the duo finished eating. The monarch laughed and said: “Still not enough, let’s eat something more meaty.” He picked out the best cut of meat from the dragon and roasted it. “Haha, let’s keep going.” Once he finished, the aroma traveled across Star Ocean. Li Qiye held a large piece and said: “You going to tell me yet?” “Well...” The monarch wiped his greasy hands on his robe and smiled wryly: “Young Noble, my cultivation is a bit low, right?” “Hmm, from what I can tell, weaker than the black bull indeed.” Li Qiye said. “Bah.” The monarch didn’t accept: “What’s so great about the old blabbermouth? He only got lucky with Firebringer Hatchet. Otherwise, I would crush him.” “Right, right, lucky with the hatchet.” Li Qiye played along. “It’s not one of a kind. Wait until I have Mountaincutter, he’s finished.” The monarch rolled up his sleeve as if this was destined. “Wait until you have it before making bold declarations.” Li Qiye said. “Sigh, the bull would be dead already if I had it and I wouldn’t need to be here.” The monarch sighed. “Why do you care so much? There’s no feud.” Li Qiye smiled. “Hmph, because he stole my title, specifically the word ‘black’. That’s the right word to describe my style but he took it with his Supreme Black Title. Bullshit, supreme, him?” The monarch said. “You still have ‘black’ in your title right now.” Li Qiye said. “Sigh, yes, but it is not as cool as Supreme Black Ancestor.” The monarch lowered his head in dejection. “Is that why you care about becoming an immortal?” Li Qiye took another bite. “Who wouldn’t want to become an immortal, Young Noble? But how am I going to survive the tribulation? The old tree demon was undoubtedly a badass, not to mention having many dao protectors. It still killed him.” The monarch said. “That’s just how it is, the difficulty.” Li Qiye said. “Hehe, but I know something that can help. Young Noble, I’m not going to lie to you, I don’t care much about being an immortal, I just want to be strong enough to crush the bull.” The monarch winked at Li Qiye. “Don’t wink at me when you’re not a beauty.” Li Qiye said. “Hehe, please eat some more.” The monarch brought more meat to the table. “Desolate Ancestor’s ascension item is what you’re after.” Li Qiye said. “Of course not.” The monarch waved his hands repeatedly: “I would dare not steal her item, it’s just that the old bull mentioned something about it, I only want to be in its presence for some immortal energy.” “It exists.” Li Qiye said. “And its effect is real?” The monarch asked. “Desolate Ancestor.” Li Qiye responded. “Doesn’t make a lot of sense, an external item?” The monarch said. “It’s not what people think it is, just a matter of staying determined and surviving the destructions.” Li Qiye revealed. “But that’s pretty much hell. No, even worse since hell can’t kill me.” The monarch said. “True, hell, if it exists, cannot kill you. This thing can reduce you to dust though, you would evaporate if you can’t maintain your dao heart.” Li Qiye said. “It’s that strong?” The monarch became afraid. “Of course, this was something that had killed immortals before, and not immortals in this world’s definition either, actual primordial immortals.” Li Qiye said. “Hmm...” The monarch contemplated: “Should I give it a shot? Just to boost my power.” “If that is your goal, then the cons outweigh the pros. One mistake and you will cease to exist. It’s another matter if you just want to polish your dao heart and endure the tribulation eventually.” Li Qiye smiled. “So it can kill me...” The monarch wondered. “A supreme overlord such as yourself can be reduced to nothingness. Your true self too, it doesn’t matter how tough or impressive it is.” Li Qiye said. “Sounds like a terrible idea then.” The monarch said: “I worked so hard for this cultivation, can’t play around anymore when it is gone. What if I can’t restart my cultivation?” “Yes, not all restart attempts are successful. The damage to the grand dao might be too severe.” Li Qiye said. “Forget it, I’m just going to wait.” The monarch decided. “So giving up on the competition?” Li Qiye asked. “Hah, for now, I will find Mountaincutter and deal with him then.” The monarch laughed.
