I’m a Pastor, what the hell is an Acute Gastroenteritis Outbreak Spell?! - Chapter 271
Chapter 271: Chapter 207 Nine-Star Food Ingredient! The Secret Realm Trial Begins!
Upon hearing this question, Zheng Cheng was moved.
As expected.
Could this be the real intention of the Zheng family?
The source of their special ingredients.
However, Zheng Cheng had already prepared for this and said, “I obtained them from a certain secret realm.”
“Oh? Which secret realm?”
Upon hearing Zheng Cheng’s words, Zheng Yuanhao’s eyes brightened immediately.
“The Morea Mine secret realm.”
Zheng Cheng explained, “In the deepest part of the Morea Mine, there’s an underground river. Inside the river, there’s a species called the Black Sludge Fishman and they’ve tamed several underwater creatures.”
“One of those creatures is the Black Sludge Crocodile, and my special ingredient came from it.”
“The Black Sludge Crocodile? I see!”
Zheng Yuanhao’s eyes gleamed, “Thank you Mr. Zheng. This is our Zheng Family’s diamond black card. With it, you can enjoy a 10% discount at all our family’s shops.”
Zheng Yuanhao passed him a black card that looked like crystal. Zheng Cheng took it without hesitation.
The Morea Mine was real.
The Black Sludge Fishman was real too.
Whether or not they could find the Black Sludge Crocodile was out of his hands.
After a while, Zheng Cheng, under Zheng Yuanhao’s guidance, placed all the goods he had purchased from Leopard Garden’s warehouse into his space ring.
At the entrance of Leopard Garden, Zheng Yuanhao cordially said, “Mr. Zheng, we hope we can count on you for more business in the future.”
Zheng Cheng nodded and casually said, “Goodbye.”
“Goodbye.”
Watching Zheng Cheng leave, Zheng Yuanhao asked, “Yang, have you added Mr. Zheng to your contacts?”
Yang Yixin hurriedly nodded and said, “Manager, I have.”
“Good, from now on you will be the one attending to Mr. Zheng. Be careful not to offend him, understood?”
“Yes, Manager!”
After touring around the Ghost Market, Zheng Cheng saw many interesting and rare items.
Unfortunately, after buying so many beast corpses, he was left with a tight budget and could not afford most of the items. He had no choice but to wait until next time.
After locating Zhao Wufeng, the two of them left the Ghost Market.
The next day.
Zheng Cheng purposely took a day off to go to the basement of his villa.
This was a training ground and meditation room built especially for professionists, but now it had been transformed by Zheng Cheng into a dissection room.
With a wave of his hand, the corpse of the first beast appeared before Zheng Cheng from his spatial ring.
Six massive pythons, each about 15 to 16 meters long and covered in multicolored green scales, lay across the floor.
The stench of blood and decay immediately filled the room.
Enchanting Snake Monster, a four star beast.
A total of twelve.
Unfortunately, Zheng Cheng’s meditation room was not too spacious, and he could only fit up to five at a time.
Zheng Cheng drew his Yunxiao sword and slashed into the first Enchanting Snake Monster.

From thirty-four Giant Winged Fruit Bats, ten pieces of Giant Bat Wing Meat were dissected.
The third type of monster.
Phantom Sound Sparrow.
This monster was only a three-star level monster, the size of an adult human’s head.
It resembled a sparrow, but its eyes were emerald green, like a ghost’s.
Moreover, this type of Phantom Sound Sparrow was the monster that Zheng Cheng had bought the most of this time, with a total of 167!
The dissected ingredient was barely useful.

The fourth type of monster was the least in quantity, only three.
But its level had reached six stars!

A sizeable snow-white frog as large as a house.
Each time Zheng Cheng needed to dissect one, he could only take them out one at a time.
[Special Ingredient: Spirit Frog Tongue Root]

[Effect: Consuming will permanently increase spirit by 10 points, constitution by 5 points, toxin resistance +1, cold resistance +1, limit of five servings.]

After the dissection of all four low-level monsters, a pile of special ingredients appeared in Zheng Cheng’s spatial ring.
Three Serpent’s Eyes, ten Giant Bat Wing meats, fifty-one sparrow’s tongue tips, and one Spirit Frog’s tongue root.
The rest of the demon beast corpses were thrown back into the spatial ring for dissection in the conventional way at a later date.
“Phew…”
After dissecting so many demon beasts, Zheng Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.
Lastly, it was the turn of the fifth and final type of demon beast.
The Ice Snow Witch.
Legend has it the Ice Snow Witch is formed by the souls of women who died in snowy mountains, extreme cold habitats, and harbored a natural, endless grudge.
After amalgamating with the extremely cold air, they naturally mastered powerful ice and snow magic.
Even when confronted with an Ice Snow Giant, they could put up a fight!
For ordinary Professionists, the Ice Snow Witch within the ice and snow terrain was invincible!
It was a mystery how the Zheng Family killed five Ice Snow Witches!
Zheng Cheng waved his hand and a wave of extreme cold air surged out.
Even with Zheng Cheng’s current strength, he could feel a strong chill.
A giant creature lay before his eyes!
This giant creature resembled a huge humanoid bird with snow-white wings. Each of its feathers was also snow-white, half a person long.
Its body was human-shaped and bluish-white with purple-green patterns and fine fluff.
The lower part of its legs was like the sharp claws of an eagle, with its tips transparent like diamonds.
Its head was like a woman’s: angular and a bloody hole at the point between its eyebrows. The blood had long been frozen.
Zheng Cheng knew that this was the location of the magic core of the Ice Snow Witch, which had been taken by the Zheng Family’s Professionist.
Wielding the Yunxiao Sword, Zheng Cheng slashed down!
[Skill successfully applied!]
[You have obtained a special ingredient: Ice Snow Witch’s Blood!]
[You have obtained the Ice Snow Witch’s DNA molecule.]
[You have activated the Ice Snow Witch’s DNA diagram.]
[Special Ingredient: Ice Snow Witch’s Blood]
[Quality: Nine Stars]
[Effect: After consumption, it permanently improves Spirit by 90 points, Agility by 20 points, Ice Attribute Affinity by +100, Frost Resistance by +100, Dizziness Resistance by +50, and there’s a very low chance of comprehending the unique ability: Snow Annihilation. Limited to one use.]
[Explanation: The pure blood of the Ice Snow Witch, contains its most intrinsic power.]
“90 points of spirit!”
Zheng Cheng’s pupils contracted sharply, as he gasped for breath.
This Ice Snow Witch’s Blood increased his spirit attribute by a total of 90 points.
In terms of level alone, it was equivalent to a nine-star Professionist leveling up by 10!
Moreover, after consuming this Ice Snow Witch’s Blood, there was a chance to comprehend a unique ability.
A unique ability distinct from the professional skills column and the universal skills column!
It was really too strong!
A pity that each Professionist could only consume one Ice Snow Witch’s Blood.
He quickly stowed this Ice Snow Witch’s Blood and the Ice Snow Witch’s corpse into the spatial ring, before once again taking out another Ice Snow Witch’s corpse.
He slashed down with his sword!
The sight flickered, and this time the skill failed!
No worries, I have more!
Minutes later, Zheng Cheng, looking at the last Ice Snow Witch’s corpse, was on the verge of tears.
He had only successfully dissected one out of five Ice Snow Witches.
One Ice Snow Witch’s Blood.
“Alas, it seems I’m not fated to have the Ice Snow Witch’s Blood…”
Days later, Zheng Cheng asked Yao Zhixue out.
“Is this the first time you’re asking me out?”
Walking in the autumnal campus, the fall leaves falling, Yao Zhixue was very cheerful.
“Yeah, I asked you out to give you some gifts.”
“What gift?”
Zheng Cheng said, “You’ll see when we get back.”
Yao Zhixue shook her head, “I don’t like waiting, show me now.”
Left with no other choice, Zheng Cheng pulled out a cheap spatial ring and gave it to Yao Zhixue, “This is your gift.”
“A ring?” Yao Zhixue took it with a blush, “Is this… a declaration of love?”
“Uh….”
Zheng Cheng said, “This is a spatial ring, the gift is inside.”
“Is that so?”
Yao Zhixue solemnly put it on her left ring finger, “I think this ring itself is prettier.”
Zheng Cheng was helpless. Are all girls this sensitive and sentimental?
“Take a look, see if you like it.”
“Mmm.”
Yao Zhixue focused her mind into the spatial ring, her beautiful eyes blinking quickly.
“Special ingredients, so many? Where did you get them?”
“Zhao Wufeng and I went to the black market.”
“I remember now. You spent all the money you earned from the college entrance exam?” Yao Zhixue said.
“Yes,” Zheng Cheng said, “Don’t reject it, this is my…”
“Why should I reject it?”
Yao Zhixue said contentedly, “A few friends I know told me it’s only natural for a boyfriend to give his girlfriend gifts.”
“Uh… who?”
“Cui Xiabing, someone called Xu Duoyi, and a few others.”
Zheng Cheng immediately said, “Stay away from those new friends of yours in future, don’t let them lead you astray.”
“Oh, okay~”
“In this secret realm expedition, you might meet Zhang Meiyu, be sure to protect yourself.”
“Don’t worry, Zhang Meiyu is no match for me, especially with so many special ingredients.”
“Still, be careful.”
“Ok, I got it,” Yao Zhixue nodded, “What about you? With such valuable gifts, I think I should give you some.”
“Me? Of course, I have them too, just relax…”
Half a month later, the first secret realm trial for the freshman year officially began!
