Chapter 53: Sun God Furnace, Boiling Tea Around the Furnace, See You on the Other Side
From the outside, this thing that was taken out of the crocodile's stomach looked like a stove.

It looks like a lotus bud about to bloom. If you look closely, you can see that it is engraved with exquisite patterns, like flames.

In the center of the stove, there was a flickering candlelight, emitting a faint golden flame.

No matter what means Su Mu used, he could not extinguish the candle flame.

Then, Su Mu stretched out his hand and touched the surface of the stove. After just a few seconds, he felt a burning and stinging pain on his skin.

Seeing this, Su Mu's eyes lit up. This was definitely not an ordinary stove. Even with his strong physique, he was almost burned.

When you bring your body close to the stove and feel the golden light emanating from the flames, you will feel warmth in your dantian, and strands of warm currents will nourish your dantian and your entire body.

After feeling the changes in his body, Su Mu was delighted. It seemed that this was a treasure that could be used for cultivation and help him practice!

Su Mu first put the stove aside and continued to dig in the crocodile's belly, trying to take out some treasures.

Unfortunately, apart from some internal organs, nothing else was found.

After dismembering the precious crocodile, we obtained crocodile skin, crocodile teeth, crocodile meat, and crocodile bones.
In ancient times, there was the butcher Ding who butchered an ox, and today there is Su Mu who butchers a crocodile. I have been here for so long, and although I haven't learned anything else, my skill in cutting open a belly has become more and more sophisticated.

However, this was Su Mu's first time disemboweling a crocodile, and it still took him half an hour to finish.

As for crocodile skin, consider using it as a mattress, because Su Mu prefers to sleep on a harder bed.

As for the crocodile teeth and bones, I can’t think of what to do with them for now, so I’ll just keep them and put them in the house.

The last thing is crocodile meat. You can eat it directly, but you should save it. You have eaten too much today, so you need to give your body some buffer time.

[Congratulations, you have maintained the river dam and received a reward, Favor Points +5000]

At this time, the system reward finally arrived. I finally waited for you. Fortunately, I didn't give up~
Another 5,000 favor points were credited to my account. I'm so happy~
That day, under the willow tree.

Su Mu sat upright in front of a stone table with a square stove on the table, a few spiritual fruits roasting next to it and a teapot warming up.

There were slices of crocodile meat in front of me. I picked up a piece of crocodile meat with chopsticks and put it on the stove. In just a few seconds, the relatively hard crocodile meat was instantly roasted and oozing with oil.

Pick up the roasted crocodile meat, put it in your mouth and chew it gently. The texture is a bit like beef, but it is firmer than beef.

After eating one piece, Su Mu felt his body burning and his skin turned red instantly.

He picked up the teapot that was warming by the stove and poured himself a cup of Lycoris radiata tea. After taking a sip of the icy tea, the feeling of heat was instantly neutralized. This refreshing feeling made him couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

With just a small piece of crocodile meat, Su Mu could feel tremendous energy filling his body.

Moreover, the meat cooked in this furnace was tainted with a special flame energy, which constantly tempered every inch of flesh and blood in the body.

Lycoris radiata tea happens to be cold in nature, and the two complement each other.

After eating a piece of crocodile meat and taking a sip of Lycoris radiata tea, Su Mu crossed his legs and began to meditate, practicing his skills to absorb energy in his body.

Because the energy contained in the crocodile meat and stone flower tea is so powerful, he has to rest for half an hour after eating a piece or drinking a sip.

After absorbing it, Su Mu's aura became stronger.

It has to be said that most of Su Mu's cultivation was gained through eating. The energy contained in the meat of this precious crocodile is even stronger than that of silver carp, and it is also more domineering. Eating a small piece will make you feel as if all the flesh and blood in your body is melting.

In this way, Su Mu ate all five pieces of crocodile meat and drank half a cup of Lycoris tea. Su Mu's whole body was emitting flames of nothingness, his face was flushed, and wisps of spiritual power turned into strong winds swirling around him. Suddenly, a sound of breaking came from his dantian.

The Four Tribulations Realm!
In less than five days, he broke through two realms in succession, soaring from the second calamity to the fourth calamity.

This speed of improvement made Su Mu himself doubt whether the records in the ancient books he had read were true.

According to records in ancient books, after a cultivator sets foot into the realm of crossing, he will go through countless hardships of life and death every time he advances to a higher level of calamity. He must be reborn from the ashes and fight his way through death before he has a chance to break through a calamity realm. Moreover, it often takes hundreds of years. Those who can break through a calamity realm in a few decades are basically one in a billion geniuses.

But, I broke through two tribulations in five days?

How do you describe this speed?
Since Su Mu was trapped here, he was alone and there was no comparison around him, so Su Mu often wondered if he was a fake immortal.

After eating, Su Mu lay down for a short nap for an hour, then got up and started working.

First, we went to the vegetable garden to see how the Lycoris radiata and the White Kui Herb were growing.

"Ok?"

When Su Mu approached, he found that the Lycoris radiata that he had transplanted and planted a few days ago had withered.

But the Bai Kui Medicine King was growing very well, the little radish heads were white and plump, but the Lycoris radiata flowers had withered, which made Su Mu very surprised.

Bai Kui Yaowang is the king of medicines. It can even keep itself alive, so why can’t it keep the Lycoris radiata alive?
With this question in mind, Su Mu put on the backpack next to the stone house, picked up the sickle, and walked towards a quiet river.

Soon, we arrived at a section of the river where the water was darker.

After arriving at this special area of ​​water, we found that the faint black fog still covered this area of ​​water.

The next second, Su Mu waved his hand and briefly dispelled the black fog. After it dissipated, the stone bridge was revealed.

After Su Mu approached the stone bridge, he found the patch of Lycoris radiata flowers, still in the same position as before.

Some time ago, I pulled out two plants, used one to make tea, and planted the other in my vegetable garden, where it died.

However, just a few days later, two new Lycoris flowers grew in the two gaps where the flowers had been pulled out.

It seems that this Lycoris can only grow here because the conditions here are suitable.

It seems that if I want to drink tea in the future, I can only come here to pick it myself. But it doesn’t matter, it’s not far away anyway.

Su Mu cut five plants with a sickle and put them in the backpack.

It will grow again anyway, so just cut five plants at a time, drink them, and come back next time.

After cutting, Su Mu prepared to leave.

When passing by the stone bridge, I found that there were still dense swarms of ants crossing the bridge.

Su Mu had also tried these ants. They tasted like a corpse and were not good things, so Su Mu didn't pay much attention to them.

Suddenly, Su Mu's pupils shrank, and his eyes discovered a special existence among the dense group of ants.
