After more than half an hour of waiting, just as the people in the front hall were looking forward to it, Li Heng finally arrived with a group of apprentices.

"My dear brother Li Heng! I finally got to see you. If you were a little later, I would have been full from drinking tea!"

When Song Qingfeng saw Li Heng, he immediately threw down the teacup in his hand, took out his bowl and chopsticks and prepared to eat.

"You're full, why are you coming over here?"

Jiang Mei tried to rush but failed to catch up with Song Qingfeng, so she could only tease him from behind.

"Hey! We're still a little short! We can still fit three or four more bowls of rice."

Although he was talking, Song Qingfeng's hands did not slow down at all. After serving the rice, he went straight to the dining table.

There was no delay at all, and it felt as if he would starve to death if he was a second slower.

"Haha! I didn't expect today's dishes to be so rich!"

Seeing that the dishes were almost filling up the entire dining table, Li Heng and several apprentices were still taking out plates, which made Song Qingfeng dazzled.

Although most of the dishes here were made by Li Heng's apprentices, there is still a gap between them and the ones made by Li Heng.

But it is no exaggeration to say that their current cooking skills have reached 60% to 70% of Li Heng's level.

Once you step out of Xiaochufeng, you will be able to beat others.

It is not difficult for them to conquer the taste buds of several bigwigs.

"Hmm~ As soon as I tasted this egg fried rice, I knew it must have been made by my good daughter Xiao Xiao!"

After Lu Xuan took a bite of rice, his face was full of pride and he couldn't help showing off to others.

Lu Xiaoxiao was able to make such delicious fried rice, and a large part of the credit went to Lu Xuan, so he was proud of it.

In addition to fried rice, there are also a variety of seafood that makes everyone unable to stop eating.

However, what Li Heng cared about most were the two dishes he made with sand crab juice.

It’s true that the taste of tofu or sweet potato leaves will be improved when paired with sand crab juice.

As if concentrating the most original taste of the sea, sand crab juice will make the eater feel the unique freshness, fragrance and saltiness.

Li Heng finished a whole bowl of rice with these two dishes, and then he began to taste the cooking skills of several apprentices.

Like: salt and pepper shrimp, steamed swimming crab, spicy razor clams, cold jellyfish, etc., there are almost more than twenty dishes in total.

Every apprentice wants Li Heng to taste the dishes they cook and then give suggestions for improvement.

In order to be fair, he had to try all the dishes, but only take one bite of each dish and make a comment after finishing.

The chefs beg to eat the dishes he cooks, and several bigwigs also want to have this "honor".

But they don't have the ability to make a correct evaluation of the dishes in front of them.

According to their classification, all dishes are divided into only two categories.

One type is delicious; the other type is not delicious.

Today's midnight snack obviously belongs to the former. As for how delicious it is, we can only ask Li Heng.

After having a good meal and tea, Li Heng estimated that it should be the hour of Hai, which is around twelve o'clock.

At this time of day, he would have fallen asleep long ago.

But we had just finished a big meal, and if we went back to our rooms to sleep now, we would definitely not be able to fall asleep. We needed some time to digest the food.

So everyone decided to chat in the backyard under the moonlight to pass the time.

The big guys had their own topics to talk about, and the younger generations had no chance to get a word in.

Several apprentices and the two kids were clamoring for Li Heng to tell them stories.

No one expected that Xiaoyaozi, who always behaved calmly, would suddenly reveal shocking news.

"What the hell? Did I hear you right? You just said you were going to break through?"

Lu Xuan jumped up from his chair and exclaimed as if he had been electrocuted, but he was not the only one who was shocked.

Li Heng, who was telling a story, and his audience were also attracted by Lu Xuan's voice.

Everyone's eyes turned to Xiaoyaozi at the same time.

"Breakthrough? Is this true or not?"

If Xiaoyaozi had been replaced by someone else present, Tie Ming would definitely not be as surprised as he is now.

"Hiss~ If I remember correctly! Master, your current cultivation level should be at the peak of the late stage of the Tribulation Realm. If you are breaking through, wouldn't it be..."

Song Qingfeng took a deep breath and pointed to the sky above his head while speaking.

Although he didn't finish his words, everyone understood what he meant.

Xiaoyaozi's cultivation has reached the peak of the Xuanwu Continent. Breaking through further is the ultimate goal of all cultivators and ascending to the fairyland.

The so-called ascension is the process of ordinary cultivators transforming into immortals. Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary mortals or low-level cultivators, these big guys are no different from the legendary immortals.

The current Xiaoyaozi does have the ability to move mountains and fill the sea, and a lifespan of tens of thousands of years, but there is still a big gap between him and the real immortals from the upper realm.

After a cultivator ascends to the upper realm, he will begin to understand the laws of heaven and earth, and the spiritual power in his body will gradually be transformed into purer immortal power.

By then he will master even more powerful magical powers, and those who can live as long as heaven and earth are called immortals.

Of course, it is not an easy task to advance from the Tribulation Realm to an Immortal in one fell swoop.

There is also a big hurdle in the middle, waiting for the monks who want to ascend to heaven to overcome.

This hurdle is the legendary "Immortal Tribulation", and the word "Tribulation" in the Tribulation Realm comes from this.

The Immortal Tribulation has always been the biggest obstacle for cultivators to ascend to heaven. If we look at it from another perspective, the Immortal Tribulation can also be seen as a testing mechanism.

It was sent down by the Heavenly Dao that dominates this world with the purpose of eliminating those unqualified monks.

If you can successfully overcome the tribulation, that would be great. You will receive the baptism of the way of heaven and then go to the upper realm under its guidance.

If one fails to survive the tribulation, at the very least one’s cultivation will regress, and at the worst, it may even affect one’s spiritual aspirations.

As for what is qualified and what is unqualified, or the assessment criteria, no one knows at this stage.

Because in the world where Li Heng lives, no immortals have appeared for hundreds of years.

"Yes! You heard it right."

The only big boss who can remain calm now is Xiaoyaozi himself.

"So what is the opportunity for a breakthrough?"

Bai Ze asked curiously.

"The battle with the Demon King Long Xin this afternoon made me feel that my cultivation level was about to break through."

Xiaoyaozi could also foresee that he would face immortal calamity in four or five days.

"So fighting can help you achieve a breakthrough in your cultivation? I thought it was all thanks to our uncle-master!"

Bai Dabao on the side suddenly interrupted.

"You don't understand, so don't talk nonsense. Senior Xiaoyao was able to advance to the late peak of the Tribulation Realm so quickly, and Li Heng certainly played an indispensable role."

Bai Ze explained to his son and a group of younger generations.

"But! If you want to transcend the tribulation and ascend to heaven, it is not enough to just improve your cultivation. This is only the most basic requirement.

The 'opportunity' I just mentioned is like an invisible door. Whether or not you can open it depends entirely on your own luck."
