Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 27: Cultivation Breakthrough in Hundred Fragrance Restaurant
Chapter 27: Cultivation Breakthrough in Hundred Fragrance Restaurant
The imperial family and the Meng Family had a close relationship and were often related through marriage. There was no lack of geniuses from the Meng Family. Every time people thought that the Meng Family had depleted their assets and foundation with their descendants unable to support the clan, a genius would emerge from nowhere and take on the mantle of continuing the Meng Family’s legendary story.
Therefore, there were rumors that the Meng Family had linked its destiny with the Great Xia Dynasty. As long as the Great Xia Dynasty remained standing, the Meng Family would never perish.
“You exaggerate,” Meng Jingzhou laughed. He humbly added, “I didn’t expect you to have guessed that I am precisely the genius from the Meng Family that emerged out of nowhere.”
“...No, we don’t think that you’re a genius,” Lu Yang spoke the truth. If the improper Meng Jingzhou were to take over the reins of the Meng Family, that would mark the end of their legendary story.
Speaking of genius, it’s more like it for me, Lu Yang, the genius, to bear the duty of leading the Dao-Seeking Sect in the future.
The two tooted their own horns while playing down the other party, completely forgetting that Tao Yaoye was right next to them. With her Metamorphic Celestial Physique, she was more of a genius than a Single’s Spirit Root and a Sword Spirit Root.
Fortunately, the two didn’t dwell on this topic for too long. An imposing and wild aura fanned out downstairs, sweeping through the entire Hundred Fragrance Restaurant. If the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant wasn’t this sturdy, one whole section of it could have collapsed!
The trio felt as if they had been struck on the head with a heavy hammer. Their minds went blank, and they could feel a large hand gripping their internal organs and squeezing the life out of them. No words could describe the immense pain they were experiencing.
The people nearby had cultivation that was minimally at the Golden Core Stage, so they were in a better state than the trio, though not by much.
“This...someone broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage?!” a Nascent Soul senior female disciple exclaimed. She hadn’t been affected. Upon further rumination, she could sense the wild intent from the aura waves.
The dishes in the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant were not just delicious. One dish could let one’s cultivation increase or let a cultivation technique circulate longer. If the dishes were combined well, they could stimulate one another’s effects, resulting in an overall better efficacy.
“I’ve long heard that just a meal at the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant can let one break through to the next major cultivation stage. I thought it was just a rumor, but I’ve now seen it in action! I wonder which junior brother or sister is so lucky to have broken through here.”
When most people broke through, they would be in seclusion and protected, desiring silence and tranquility. However, the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant was the total opposite. It was noisy and bustling with people, and that could meddle with one’s frame of mind, so it was not conducive to a breakthrough.
If someone could break through even in such an environment, it only showed how beneficial the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant was for increasing one’s cultivation!
The waiter snapped his fingers, and the oppressive pressure instantly disappeared. Everyone caught their breaths and looked at the waiter in astonishment. To them, the waiter appeared to be at the Golden Core Stage, but the casual move he displayed clearly exceeded that of a Golden Core cultivator.
The waiter had feigned his cultivation stage.
Someone whispered to their companion, “I heard the elders mention that he was already the waiter here at the Hundred Fragrance Restaurant when it first opened a thousand years ago. Even after a thousand years have passed, he is still a waiter here and his appearance hasn’t changed the slightest bit.”
Although it was fairly normal for cultivators to maintain their looks, it was still rare for someone to not change their appearance for a thousand years.
The waiter didn’t seem to have heard them whispering, and his expression was apologetic. “I’m sorry, perhaps a customer got too excited when breaking through and forgot to restrain their aura. We seek your kind understanding.”
A senior male disciple who had just reached the Golden Core Stage mused over the breakthrough aura waves from just now, his eyes lighting up. “This aura wave contains a trace of wildness like the Ancient Dragon Tribe has just appeared. It should be a physique cultivator who has broken through. Let us quickly comprehend this aura wave. Maybe it’ll be useful for improving our physiques!”
“Absolutely! This is a fortuitous opportunity for us. We should seize it.” His companions concurred and began sitting in a meditative position.
The five of them slightly levitated into the air. Their eyes were closed, and they kept silent. As a cool breeze blew in from all directions, they felt extremely comfortable. Even if one wasn’t a physique cultivator, they still valued the strength of their physique. If their power was sufficient but their body couldn’t keep up, they could easily be ambushed by others and killed in one move. If the other party insisted on engaging in close combat, they would die as soon as the enemy got close.

Hence, the Dao-Seeking Sect placed much importance on their disciples’ physique.
The Ancient Dragon Tribe was one of the supreme clans in the Demon Region, renowned for their abilities to summon the wind and rain and their invincible body. If one could comprehend even a tinge of the Ancient Dragon’s aura, it would be highly beneficial for the physical body. If they went a step further and comprehended even just half a move of the Dragon Tribe’s remarkable powers, it would be a tremendous fortuitous opportunity!
It was uncommon to see five Golden Core cultivators seated around piping hot dishes without eating them but instead sitting in a meditative position.
Lu Yang found such sensitivity to fortuitous opportunities very admirable.
Tao Yaoye proposed, “Why don’t we also take the chance to comprehend?”
Lu Yang was surprised. “You can feel the Ancient Dragon aura the senior brothers mentioned?”
“There’s no harm in trying.”
Just as the trio was considering whether they should also meditate and try to comprehend the wild aura of the Ancient Dragon Tribe, the sound of hurried footsteps came from the stairway.
A wild boar with a green face and tusks appeared, its eyes filled with panic and anger. The crowd felt a strong sense of danger.
They found the demon to be ferocious and terrifying, and its cultivation surpassed most of the people present! Furthermore, the wild boar’s aura waves were unsteady, as if it had just broken through!
The waiter knitted his brow, a small vortex rising in his palm. Just as he contemplated whether he should intervene, there was the flash of a blade, its sharp saber qi carrying a fiery aura. With one slash, the wild boar’s head and body were separated, its head rolling far away until it stopped at Lu Yang’s feet.
The wild boar stared right at Lu Yang, its eyes full of unresolved grievances.
What should have been a bloody scene ended up with not a single drop of blood lost. The burning saber qi had roasted the wild boar at its severed neck, and the aroma of roasted meat assailed the nostrils.
The owner of the saber finally appeared. He was an ordinary-looking chef wearing a tall hat. He even wore a specially made work apron, and one of his hands held a butcher knife. His face was fierce-looking; when he smiled, he resembled a bandit who intended to kill a hostage.
“Sorry, sorry, I’m sorry for startling everyone. I was just about to butcher this wild boar that is a descendant of dragons. Maybe my killing intent was too fierce, causing this beast to feel the threat to his life. He made use of this life-and-death opportunity to activate the trace of Ancient Dragon blood, breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
“It is our restaurant’s fault. It won’t happen again. Please forgive us!” The chef was still carrying the butcher knife and wearing a ferocious smile, though his tone was fairly sincere.
Even if the crowd didn’t want to forgive him, they had to.
The chef picked up the boar’s head from Lu Yang’s feet and dragged it back. Only then did the pressure vanish.
The five Golden Core senior male disciples were a little embarrassed. It didn’t seem right to either continue comprehending or stop comprehending.
One person slapped the table. “Damn it, bring us a plate of slaughtered pig dish[1] made from that wild boar!”
The price of Nascent Soul pork meat was outrageously expensive, let alone a wild boar with Ancient Dragon blood. Eating this plate of slaughtered pig dish would be enough to make them slap themselves when they wake up. Even if they would slap themselves, they were determined to eat the dish today. If they didn’t eat this wild boar, their Dao hearts wouldn’t be stable, and their bottled-up resentment could likely result in internal injuries.
The waiter placed the towel on his shoulder, beaming as he shouted, “Alright, one more slaughtered pig dish for the five esteemed guests!”
1. A Dongbei dish, it got its name because it would be eaten when pigs were slaughtered at the end of the year. ☜
