Lord of Enigma

Chapter 5: Snowflake Rabbit Meat Mixed Stew Soup

"This feels very good."

Tang Qi stood in front of the window sill, bathing in warm sunlight, and all the gloom in his mind was swept away. He felt better than ever.

In his field of vision, the weird interface had also changed.

Name: Tang Qi

Status: Normal

Race: Human

Skills: Golden Furnace Meditation Method.

[Information Fragment: This is an ancient meditation method. Visualize the golden sun, and your soul will be thrown into the furnace and be sublimated in the burning.]

"A cultivation method?"

Tang Qi suppressed the joy in his heart. Because he killed the evil housekeeper Old Morgan, his witch mother, Samra, cast a huge shadow on Tang Qi's future. From Old Morgan's diary alone, one could get a peek of the horribleness of Samra the old witch.

Tang Qi, who was still an ordinary person, couldn't imagine what would happen if this family came to seek revenge.

The family wealth inherited by the original occupier of this body could not bring Tang Qi any sense of security, such that he hadn't even thought of it until now.

But this cultivation method he just obtained actually gave Tang Qi a light of hope.

Should he start practicing now?

Tang Qi turned to look at the corpse of Old Morgan on the floor. Evil rituals, extinguished red candles, the strange Balance Scale of Soul Exchange. Ordinary people would probably find it very hard to keep calm under this kind of environment, but Tang Qi only smiled slightly and then sat right down by the window, facing the sunlight.

Without hesitation, he followed the method shown in the parchment-turned-ball and began to visualize the golden sun in his mind.

The parchment scroll was already gone, but what was very strange was that all the details of the sun totem could be remembered in Tang Qi's mind very clearly and extremely vividly.

Tang Qi just thought about it, and the sun was already sketched out in his mind bit by bit. The golden lines and strange and ancient runes felt as if there was a wise ancestor pouring out the faith in his heart through drawing on the rocks lit by sunshine.

When the sun formed, the golden flame inflated and exploded, absorbing all of Tang Qi's thoughts. It felt like an entrance to a magical world.

What happened next was a wonder that Tang Qi had never experienced.

He himself seemed to have turned into a golden sun, hanging high above the void, releasing infinite light and flames and spreading out a warm and vast aura. There seemed to be many strange, grotesque things sweeping over from the infinite void.

Among these things were black mist, gray streams of water, screaming monsters, and fields of flowers Each of them was strongly attracted towards Tang Qi under some force.

But when they touched those golden flames, they burned away instantly, without any exception.

At the same time those strange things were burnt away, a golden light spot was born, which automatically flew into Tang Qi's body like a piece of dust. At the center of the flame, a distinct, warm feeling that could not be ignored made Tang Qi almost moan aloud.

So comfortable!

So fun!

This was what Tang Qi felt at this moment. The supernatural experience that he imagined to be extremely painful didn't happen. Instead, the opposite feeling of great comfort submerged him immediately.

It was as though he was playing a game of collecting golden light spots. He was totally enjoying himself.

In this state, Tang Qi forgot the surroundings and was completely immersed in it.

Time passed quickly.

"Ouch!"

He didn't know how much time had passed before he suddenly felt an unbearable heat burning in his head. It felt as though he was touching a searing piece of iron, and the feeling woke him up immediately.

He opened his eyes and saw a misty, faintly purple moon disappearing slowly.

On the horizon, a new round of sun rose slowly.

What's up? Had time run backward?

Subconsciously, Tang Qi looked at the clock on the wall of the study; surprised, his pupils shrank slightly as he said, "It's actually been a day and a night."

Tang Qi felt very magical. He sat cross-legged by the window for a whole day and night. By rights, his waist and legs were supposed to be sore.

But now, Tang Qi only felt better than ever.

Not only did the body not have any soreness, his spirit didn't feel tired either.

The most incredible thing was that Tang Qi could feel that at this moment, there seemed to be something more in his mind.

Without getting up, he focused, and immediately, the world changed in front of him; Tang Qi saw his own sea of spirit. In this world of void, tiny spots of golden light drifted up and down like fireflies.

When he pulled away, these golden light dots immediately seemed very small compared to the huge sea of spirit.

But Tang Qi was still very happy at this moment. These golden light spots were undoubtedly supernatural powers.

Only that, Tang Qi still didn't have the method to use them right now.

"Since these are powers from a meditation method, maybe they are all powers of the spirit?

Tang Qi speculated and couldn't help but do a series of tests himself.

It was a pity that despite all his staring making his eyes tired, he wasn't able to move even a pencil. His strength and speed also remained exactly the same as before.

Then, Tang Qi's look went towards the diary left by Old Morgan once more.

More than ten witchcrafts were recorded inside.

Although most of them were evil witchcrafts that required complex rituals to be prepared, there were still a few special witchcrafts that only needed magic to be cast.

But soon Tang Qi shook his head, rejecting the idea.

In addition to not being sure whether the golden light spots he cultivated fitted the definition of "magic" in witchcraft, there was a more important reason.

According to Old Morgan's diary, all the witchcraft that he knew came from his mother.

She was an old witch named "Samra", who was once the Shaman of a mysterious tribe in Saha Continent and who had a terrible name and high prestige in that area.

If he used those witchcrafts, it would likely be sensed by Samra.

Now Tang Qi had just entered the realm of the supernatural. He was definitely not prepared to deal with the revenge of a dark witchcraft family, so he could only let it go temporarily.

Of course, because his first practice was successful, Tang Qi couldn't help but allow a smile to appear on his face. Inside, he was guessing, "My strange ability doesn't look that simple since the Golden Furnace Meditation Technique has been lost for many years, but the difficulty of cultivation is definitely not considerable."

"For me to succeed at the very first time, either I'm a legendary peerless genius, or it's because I converted the meditation technique to a skill previously."

"Since it's a skill, so long as I'm under a normal condition, succeeding every time is inevitable."

Tang Qi muttered while he slowly stood up, stepped over Old Morgan on the floor whose corpse had already stiffened, and walked right out of the study. Following some memory fragments, he walked straight to the kitchen.

Along the way, the scenes that were strange yet familiar made Tang Qi's mind retrieve even more memory fragments, and the scenes he saw made him understand the original body as well as this whole new world even more.

Outside the study, he first passed through a corridor with many paintings hanging, then a classical solid wood staircase, then a simple and elegant hall. Although the layout was not empty at all, and it showed the owner's good taste, because Tang Qi himself was the only person around, the entire villa seemed extremely deserted.

Tang Qi did a bit of recalling and knew the reason. Actually, there were a few servants around previously for example, a cook, a gardener, and two old maidservants in charge of cleaning but all of them were given a long holiday by Old Morgan.

Now it seemed that it was obviously for the convenience of murdering him.

Tang Qi could call for the servants to come back, but right now, he couldn't quite wait any more.

With a full day and full night of cultivation, his spirit was completely energized, and his health was good, but the hunger in his stomach felt like a beast that was about to burst out of him.

He had no time to appreciate the extravagance around the villa. Tang Qi crossed through the main hall directly and entered the kitchen at the back.

Without rummaging around, Tang Qi recalled a few details and moved.

First, he stepped towards the huge freezer, opened it with a clicking sound, and after feeling around for a few moments, took out a piece of bright red meat. With the mist of water vapor around the freezer, the meat looked almost like it was covered with patterns of snowflakes.

Tang Qi weighed it in his hand and placed it on the chopping board in front of him, satisfied. He turned to take a few potatoes, an onion, a carrot-like thing, and a few green vegetables from the side shelf. After putting them down, he casually reached for a seemingly complicated seasoning box.

After a quiet glance and thinking that all ingredients were ready, Tang Qi directly started the fire, producing a clicking sound. Under the cookware that looked like a stone pot, a blue-violet flame rose. Tang Qi added water and started chopping on the other side. Although this was the first time he cooked with his new body, it felt unexpectedly agreeable for some reason.

After the clicking sounds stopped, the ingredients on the chopping board were all cut, and the water just happened to be boiling as well. Tang Qi's hands moved and very smoothly put all the ingredients in the water, including a whole piece of meat with snowflake patterns.

He opened the seasoning box and rapidly added all kinds of strange spices into the stone pot following the memories in his head, muttering in the process.

After putting them in, Tang Qi put the lid down and an amazing scene soon happened.

It took a mere 10 seconds.

Tang Qi swiftly opened the lid, and immediately, a very rich aroma rushed out of the stone pot.

It was an irresistible fragrance that made people unable to wait to eat it. Tang Qi didn't prepare tableware and utensils, just picked up the stone pot directly, and placed it upon the huge dining table. He dug in with a silver spoon that he casually picked up, scooped up some soup, and sent it into his mouth.

Before the soup entered his mouth, its special fragrance had already stimulated Tang Qi's mouth to vigorously produce saliva. When the rich, shining, red soup entered his mouth and flowed down his throat, the flavor left in his mouth seemed to stimulate all his taste buds. Tang Qi let out a long and comfortable breath.

So good, so delicious.

Tang Qi's heart was fully moved now. This was a happiness from consuming delicious food, and it was entirely different from the joy from obtaining supernatural powers. Tang Qi who was hungry to begin with couldn't wait at all; he moved his silver spoon continuously and finished up all the food and soup inside the stone pot.

After the last mouthful of food went down to his stomach, Tang Qi put down the spoon and sat back on the chair with great satisfaction on his face. Looking at the completely empty stone pot in front of him, he indeed didn't find a trace of meat. He couldn't help but say with surprise, "Snowflake Rabbit Meat Mixed Stew Soup. Combine good snowflake rabbit meat with fresh vegetables, accompanied with a special mix of spices, to cook a pot of extremely delicious rich soup."

"The most important thing is that when snowflake rabbit meat is cooked with a stone pot, it would mix into the soup in 10 seconds. When one drinks the soup, one eats the meat at the same time. It's really amazing."

"According to the memory of the original body, such an amazing dish doesn't seem to be an exception."

"In this way, humans in this world are simply too happy. It's indeed a good world for foodies."

After a few words, Tang Qi put away the utensils.

After muttering "the better the life, the stronger the foundation needed", Tang Qi's footsteps didn't pause at all, nor did he continue to appreciate this luxurious villa; instead, he walked straight towards the study.
