Chapter 788: An explosion of aroma…
Translator: G.o.dBrandy Editor: Kurisu
Once he finished spinning the coc.o.o.n, Song Shuhang activated the ‘Turtle Breathing Technique’ and fell into a slumber, starting to absorb the strength of the ‘demodragon medicine’.
This time, Song Shuhang had drunk almost a full vial of demodragon medicine. As such, he wondered if he would turn into something like Hulk after breaking out of the coc.o.o.n…
After falling asleep, Shuhang wasn’t dragged into that strange dreamland related to the puppet curse of the Jet-Black Sect, he wasn’t affected by his mental energy, and his dreamland innate skill didn’t activate, either. This time, he slept soundly.
He had a good sleep, and the feeling of sleeping inside the coc.o.o.n was truly great.
After waking up, Song Shuhang yawned listlessly. “I can’t even remember the last time I slept so well. As expected, the feeling of sleeping inside the coc.o.o.n is great. No wonder Senior White wasn’t willing to come out.”
But right at this time, Su Clan’s Sixteen’s voice was transmitted from outside the coc.o.o.n. “Shuhang, you’ve finally woke up? If you are already awake, quickly come out. You are just in time to eat dinner.”
“I’m still in time for dinner? Did I sleep for such a short amount of time?” Song Shuhang asked in puzzlement. He felt as if he had slept for a very long period of time.
“Hehe.” Yu Jiaojiao’s voice was also transmitted from outside the coc.o.o.n. “A short amount of time? You fell asleep on August 13th. That day, we were still in the White Cloud Academy, receiving the warm welcome of the scholarly disciples, and today is already August 18th. You have slept for more than five days already, little friend Tyrannical Saber!”
Speaking of which, Song Shuhang’s dao name, Tyrannical Saber, had spread in the whole scholarly faction.
“Ah?” Song Shuhang opened his eyes wide, and didn’t dare to believe what he had just heard. After falling asleep, he had slept for more than five days?
That was truly scary!
The coc.o.o.n was absolutely terrific, and one would simply get addicted to sleeping inside if they were not careful!
Song Shuhang asked, “In that case, where are we now? How is the shooting of the movie proceeding?”
“We’ve finished shooting the movie yesterday. Now, it’s being edited, and they are dealing with things such as the storyboard, background music, etc.,” Su Clan’s Sixteen replied. After all the matters related to the movie came to an end, she would follow Su Clan’s Seven and leave the movie crew in order to transcend her heavenly tribulation.
“Does that mean that I’ve missed all the remaining scenes?” Song Shuhang sighed, and then asked, “Right, Sixteen~ was that set of vehicle registration certificates of mine used during the shooting of the movie?”
Speaking of which, the main reason he had decided to shoot this movie was that Papa Song and the others had seen those vehicle registration certificates.
At first, Song Shuhang had been just planning to shoot a small movie, the type that a bunch of friends could shoot on their own for fun, similar to those short comedies online.
But later, Song Shuhang had had a sudden inspiration, and proposed to shoot a tailor-made movie for Venerable White in order to divert his attention. As a result, all the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group had also been dragged into it, and this matter related to the shooting of the movie kept getting bigger and bigger, just like a s...o...b..ll rolling down a mountain.
This movie, whose temporary name was ❮Apocalypse War❯, was like a wild horse that wasn’t under Song Shuhang’s control anymore. Things kept getting more and more out of control, and the movie ended up being a big production.
Yu Jiaojiao replied, “Don’t worry, we used all those stage props. Everything went according to the script of your friend Gao Moumou. During the part shoot in the city, a playboy carelessly b.u.mped into the main character Ling Ye, who was drunk at the time. Nothing happened to Ling Ye, but the playboy died in the accident… that pile of certificates made its appearance during that scene. Afterward, that playboy became Ling Ye’s sentient weapon through a series of coincidences. At first, your friend Gao Moumou wanted to play this role personally, but after the shooting of the movie started, Gao Moumou discovered that there was your name on all those registration certificates, Shuhang.”
Song Shuhang was speechless. At first, he was the one supposed to play that character! But little did he expect that he would end up cast as the death-seeking ‘Senior Brother Gao Sheng’.
“How did you deal with this matter in the end?” Song Shuhang asked.
“Afterward, your friend Gao Moumou got Venerable White’s approval, and the name on the registration certificates was changed into that of Gao Moumou,” Yu Jiaojiao said.
“F*ck!” Song Shuhang blurted out.
Gao Moumou really thought that those vehicle registration certificates were stage props! The problem was they weren’t fake, but real!
“You don’t need to worry. After the shooting of the movie, the certificates were handed over to Cave Lord Snow Wolf. He will fix them and return them to you,” Yu Jiaojiao said with a smile.
Cave Lord Snow Wolf was a professional when it came to handling doc.u.ments. If there was any fellow daoist that had closed up for several hundred years, they could look for Cave Lord Snow Wolf to get all the doc.u.ments they needed.
PS: Cave Lord Snow Wolf was also handling a company that changed spirit stones into RMB, USD, and so on. An ordinary spirit stone of the Third Stage could be exchanged for a large sum of money.
At this time, Su Clan’s Sixteen reminded, “Can we talk about the movie later? Why don’t you come out of the coc.o.o.n first?”
Since he was already awake, what was the point of staying inside the coc.o.o.n?
“I’ll immediately come out. You two move away from there,” Song Shuhang said.
After all, he wasn’t Venerable White, and didn’t have his charm.
If he refused to come out of the coc.o.o.n as Venerable White had back then, Yu Jiaojiao and Su Clan’s Sixteen would definitely rip his coc.o.o.n open and drag him out.
As such, Song Shuhang used his hand as a blade and pierced through the large coc.o.o.n.
He slashed down with his hand and created a small hole in the wall of the coc.o.o.n, stretching out his hand and making the hole bigger.
❄️❄️❄️
As soon as Song Shuhang’s hand pierced through the large coc.o.o.n, a burst of rich aroma spread out.
It was simply like an explosion of aroma! When Song Shuhang ripped open the wall of the coc.o.o.n, all the aroma stored within the coc.o.o.n exploded outside and spread everywhere.
In less than a second, the aroma that propagated from the coc.o.o.n had spread out and reached even places that were very far from the room where Song Shuhang’s coc.o.o.n was located.
Outside, although the shooting of the movie had ended, there were still a few members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group that had nothing to do and were preparing to take a look at the scenes that had been just shot.
Amongst them were True Monarch Yellow Mountain, Venerable White, Fairy Lychee, Cave Lord Snow Wolf and his family, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator, Young Master Phoenix Slayer, and Doudou…
All of them happened to smell the rich aroma.
“Such a strong aroma! Woof~ what a fragrant and rich taste, what might it be?” Doudou sniffed lightly. Now that five days had pa.s.sed, he’d already recovered from the effects of Young Master Phoenix Slayer’s innate skill.
Cave Lord Snow Wolf likewise sniffed, and said, “It’s the smell of food. I can smell many spices mixed within, and there is also the faint smell of green onion.”
One was a dog, and the other a wolf. They had the most sensitive noses among the cultivators present, and they were the first ones to smell the aroma.
“This aroma reminded me of Immortal Fairy Bie Xue’s Immortal Feast! When Immortal Fairy Bie Xue took the lid off the main dish, a similar aroma spread in the surrounding area, filling the noses and all those present. Just by smelling the aroma, it felt that the Immortal Feast had been worth it!” Northern River’s Loose Cultivator said as he wiped the drool off his mouth.
Young Master Phoenix Slayer looked at Venerable White, and said, “Senior White, did you ask Immortal Fairy Bie Xue to prepare a set of dishes for us?”
Among those present, only Senior White had the capacity to make the best immortal chef in the world, Immortal Fairy Bie Xue, come over and prepare some dishes for them.
Venerable White turned his head around: ?
The look on his face was one of surprise.
From the looks of it, it wasn’t Venerable White’s doing.
True Monarch Yellow Mountain took a deep breath. “Is it possible that some immortal chef broke through?”
“Woof, woof~ Stupid Yellow Mountain, you can keep following the editing of the movie. I’ll go take a look and see which immortal chef broke through!” Doudou jumped and headed in the direction the smell was coming from.
Seeing that Doudou had already gone over, the other members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group were unable to sit still, and decided to follow him.
But right at this time, Venerable White held his chin, and said, “It might not be the dish of an immortal chef.”
“Hmm? Fellow Daoist White, did you discover something?” True Monarch Yellow Mountain asked.
“Yes. Even if the aroma has become richer and more fragrant, I can recognize this smell after carefully inspecting it,” Venerable White explained. “Don’t you feel that this aroma is very similar to the one little friend Song Shuhang released when he used his Lotus Blossoming Tongue skill the last time?”
“Now that Senior White mentioned it… it’s indeed similar. It’s just that it is several times richer and more fragrant, and we didn’t immediately link it to little friend Shuhang’s innate skill,” Young Master Phoenix Slayer replied.
“It seems that little friend Song Shuhang has woken up. What kind of benefits did he obtain after sleeping for five days? Perhaps he broke through?” True Monarch Yellow Mountain said with a smile.
Young Master Phoenix Slayer ridiculed him immediately. “Have mercy! The speed at which little friend Shuhang is advancing is absolutely terrifying. Whenever I think about the fact that he might soon catch up with me in realm, I feel a lot of pressure as his senior!”
“Let’s go over and take a look,” Venerable White said.
Thereupon, the remaining members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group also headed in the direction the aroma was coming from.
❄️❄️❄️
In the meantime.
Song Shuhang’s friends were looking at the members of Jacob’s Production Team editing the movie along with Great Master Swallow Cloud. Their room was somewhat far. As such, it took the smell a while before reaching their position.
“So good, what’s this smell?” Gao Moumou sniffed the smell, and his appet.i.te was immediately stimulated, with his belly starting to grumble.
The several people present looked at each other.
“Should we have dinner?” Tubo suggested.
“Good idea,” Great Master Swallow Cloud agreed.
❄️❄️❄️
“Crack, crack, crack.”
Song Shuhang ripped open the coc.o.o.n and stepped out of it.
After coming out, he discovered that Su Clan’s Sixteen and Yu Jiaojiao were in front of him with surprised expressions on their faces.
“It seems I’ve turned into a muscular fellow again, huh?” Song Shuhang lowered his head and looked at his body.
Hmm, he had indeed turned into a muscular fellow.
He had bulging muscles all over the body, and his size had increased by quite a lot; his body had strengthened to the point of inducing despair.
But, more importantly, there was a small problem with the color of his skin…
“Why is my skin green? What’s happening?!” Song Shuhang was dumbfounded.
Before spinning the coc.o.o.n, he’d ridiculed himself and wondered if he would turn into something like Hulk after breaking out of the coc.o.o.n… but why had the color of his skin also become green?
Had he really turned into Hulk?
