101: Chapter 101 Sublimated Blood Crystal Rice

Ruin Market.

"Beep!"

"Distinguished VIP vehicle owner, welcome!"

After parking the car in the parking lot, Qin Feng walked toward the underground base without a moment's pause.

Although it was dinner time right now,

he had no appetite for food at all.

In fact,

while at the Rising Sun Behemoth Factory during the day, he hadn't eaten anything either.

Ever since learning that the food processing plants in the Lower City were controlled by demons, Qin Feng lost every bit of appetite for the food there; besides, those ghostly things didn't taste good to begin with.

However,

even if he didn't eat regular meals,

Qin Feng had no worries about going hungry.

blood crystal rice porridge was essentially a meal in itself, and a high-grade one at that. Although it was digested relatively quickly... couldn't he just eat a bit more?

"Before, I couldn't bear to eat too much blood crystal rice porridge."

"After all, my supply of titan blood crystals was limited, with only one Whole Crystal."

"But now, things are different."

"I can completely achieve freedom in eating blood crystal rice porridge. One meal can easily last me a day and a night."

Just as he entered the pile of ruins where the entrance to the underground base was located,

Qin Feng saw a group of scavengers and junkies coming and going, whispering among themselves:

"Have you heard? That 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone' suddenly disappeared again."

"Disappeared? I think it was fake to begin with, it didn't even exist. It's just some people with ulterior motives trying to use an old urban legend to create a viral check-in spot for marketing."

"Yeah, yeah, the Upper City's Law Enforcement Security Team has already sent people. After investigating, they clearly stated that the so-called legend of the 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone' is entirely groundless, fabricated by someone with bad intentions. All the videos and pictures circulating online are just special effects and edited photos."

"But what about those junkies who were killed? People actually died! And their deaths were so gruesome, like they were eaten by a monster!"

"Let's wait for the follow-up reports from the Upper City officials..."

"No need to wait. I have a friend with connections to the Upper City Law Enforcement Team. They said a criminal developed an illegal Flesh Technology weapon. Because the weapon was too brutal, it caused such a horrific murder scene. Now the enforcement team is hunting down that criminal!"

"So that's how it is..."

The voices reached Qin Feng's ears,

causing his brow

to gradually furrow.

Those things just now...

was that really the truth?

Although the Upper City's official announcement was indeed more logical and persuasive, knowing the nature of the Upper City people,

the more they tried to cover something up,

the more likely it was to be true.

"But regardless of whether this 'Scavenging Forbidden Zone' is real or fake, I don't have enough cultivation time right now, so there's no need to pay much attention to it."

The junkie who sold the Dragon-type Behemoth heart to Qiangwei and Honglian was already dead.

No matter why he met his end,

the clues were ultimately cut off.

Qin Feng had no interest in getting to the bottom of it.

Even if there really were other scattered, unrecognized Dragon-type Behemoth body parts, finding them would inevitably consume a huge amount of energy, which was not cost-effective for Qin Feng at all.

He couldn't be bothered with it.

After entering the underground base,

Qin Feng immediately began cooking blood crystal rice porridge.

Since he had gained a lot today and had many more titan blood crystals, Qin Feng not only cooked a larger quantity but also made it twice as thick as before.

The richer the blood crystal rice porridge,

the better the effect of the Breathing technique

would naturally be.

Especially since Qin Feng could perfectly absorb the energy of the titan blood crystals without wasting a single bit. Anyone else, even a high-Rank Martial Artist, wouldn't dare to be so extravagant.

"Eh? Lu Qingran's brain seems to have sprouted from this 'ether soil'?"

Qin Feng came to the bottle where Lu Qingran's brain was planted.

This bottle,

according to Xia Qingchuan's introduction, was called a "life-nurturing bottle."

And the soil inside was called "ether soil."

The two appeared ordinary, but in reality, they contained the deepest Profound Truths of Flesh Technology.

While others were still performing flesh and limb transplants,

this "life-nurturing bottle" and "ether soil" could actually allow one to DIY, design abilities, and plant any desired flesh and blood limb!

Furthermore, the growth cycle wasn't long; normally, it only took a week!

Although Lu Qingran only had a brain left, as long as this foundation existed, a complete body could be set in the "life-nurturing bottle" to slowly develop and grow.

During the growth period, the "life-nurturing bottle" would also expand accordingly. After all, this bottle was made of flesh materials and possessed excellent elasticity.

At this moment,

in Qin Feng's eyes,

a sprout of flesh and blood, resembling a small tentacle, had emerged from the soil at the mouth of the bottle.

The tip of the sprout was slightly bulging.

Looking closely,

an outline resembling an eye seemed to be emerging inside.

"As she continues to grow, Lu Qingran's consciousness will also recover. It wouldn't be good if she saw my secrets then."

"Better to lock her in a dark room first."

Qin Feng picked up the bottle.

Without hesitation, he placed it in a vacant room in the base and locked the door.

There was a surveillance device in the room;

he could monitor her at any time and place.

At this time,

a rich aroma of rice wafted through the air.

"Smells so good!"

Qin Feng's stomach couldn't help but growl.

"This fragrance is even richer than before!"

"I can't take it, I need to go grab a few bites right now."

Qin Feng rolled up his sleeves,

picked up a rice bowl,

and walked quickly toward where the blood crystal rice porridge was being cooked.

He opened the lid of the vat.

Whoosh!

The aroma almost turned substantial, dispersing with the water vapor. The moment it entered his nostrils, Qin Feng felt his brain cheering and every cell in his body rejoicing with an indescribable comfort.

"Hmm?"

But the next moment,

Qin Feng was stunned:

"The state of this blood crystal rice porridge today... why is it different?"

Qin Feng looked closely.

As the water vapor completely dissipated,

he saw that inside the vat where the titan blood crystals were cooked, the liquid was not in a thick porridge state as before, but... it had actually turned solid!

Grain by grain,

blood-colored and crystalline,

clear and distinct.

This wasn't porridge at all.

It was...

Rice!

That's right!

It was blood crystal rice!

"From blood crystal rice porridge, it has sublimated into blood crystal rice?"

Qin Feng was dazed for a moment.

Then, a look of pleasant surprise burst from his eyes.

Although the overall volume of this blood crystal rice seemed smaller than the porridge, clearly, the essence was concentrated.

He couldn't wait to scoop out a bowl.

Time to eat!

"Holy crap..."

The moment the blood crystal rice grains entered his mouth, Qin Feng's eyes widened, his pupils trembled, and an incredibly unbelievable light flashed within them.

"In this world... how can there be rice this delicious! So tasty! So sweet and delectable?!"

"No..."

"I feel like no words are worthy of describing the deliciousness of this blood crystal rice."

"This kind of deliciousness simply isn't for Mortals, but for... Gods! Yes, it's for gods to enjoy!"

Qin Feng wolfed it down.

In just a few seconds,

he had actually finished a whole bowl of blood crystal rice.

He almost even bit and ate the bowl.

"Another bowl!"

As the blood crystal rice entered his stomach, the rich titan blood crystal energy immediately began to diffuse.

If Qin Feng could see inside his body,

he would find that this titan blood crystal energy was like waves of thick mist. Unlike the violent and surging nature of the previous blood crystal rice porridge, it was exceptionally calm.

Calm... to an eerie degree!
