Under the Waterfall Ravine, Chen Zao took a wild bath.
After washing away all the dirt, he finally no longer had that nauseating odor on him.
This made Chen Zao feel quite cheerful.
As for the Golden Figure's words, although he still couldn't determine their authenticity, Chen Zao thought he understood. He didn't need to dwell too much; he only needed to prove one thing in the future.
He just had to prove that the apocalyptic realm he traversed did not open the door to the apocalypse because of him, which would completely overturn the time-space paradox proposed by the Golden Figure.
According to what the Golden Figure said, human history had already fallen into an infinite cycle of apocalypse dominated by the Deep Sea Alien Race. In countless realms, he was a key figure in opening the door to the apocalypse. It was clear that the realm he traversed, which had Ren Xiao and Ren Ling, also opened its deep-sea apocalypse a year ago because he brought back Beast Oil.
Since he had such great power to spread Green Health Food like Beast Oil throughout the world, there would definitely be many clues left behind. His company must be a world-class enterprise, and he himself should be a world-class celebrity from a century ago!
He just needed to search for clues from a century ago in the apocalypse to prove that there really was a world-class figure like him or that there was indeed a company promoting food or other items possibly containing Beast Oil worldwide. This would confirm what the Golden Figure said—that he truly played a role in opening the door to the apocalypse.
But if there was no such world-class enterprise from a century ago and no world-class figure like him, then it would mean that everything the Golden Figure said was nonsense!
Originally, during the Golden Age, Chen Zao wanted to promote his Salvation Project discreetly and establish a Green Health Food Group behind the scenes. However, in order to break the time-space paradox mentioned by the Golden Figure, Chen Zao decided that starting from this return, he would lead an incredibly high-profile life!
He would no longer choose a low-key life of anonymity; instead, he wanted to leave a striking mark in history so that his future self could find these traces after a hundred years. He would live with the most flamboyant attitude!
He aimed to establish a renowned global food group that would be remembered in history, just like Coca-Cola or McDonald's. He wanted his Braised Meat Sandwich to be famous for centuries! He wanted everyone to know that when they mentioned "Zao," it referred to Roujiamo!
He must ensure that his name, his company's name, and the name "Braised Meat Sandwich" were written into various historical documents! Spread far and wide! Let the Deep Sea Alien Race be utterly destroyed!
If what the Golden Figure said was true and he successfully built such a global Gourmet Empire, then these clues could never be completely erased by the Deep Sea Alien Race. As long as he searched diligently in the apocalypse, he would definitely find traces from a century ago.
Before finding these traces, he needed to temporarily halt all plans promoting Beast Oil-related foods.
In the next five to ten years, or even longer, he plans to continue extracting a vast amount of antique wealth from the apocalypse and establish his Culinary Empire during the Golden Age. He aims to create a green and healthy Health Supplements group, initially avoiding Beast Oil-type Health Supplements, instead expanding the market with conventional Health Supplements.
Once he can overturn the time paradox of the Golden Figure, he will focus on transporting Beast Oil and promote the life-saving Beast Oil food and Health Supplements across all fields and channels under his group.
However, before overturning the time paradox of the Golden Figure, he must use Beast Oil cautiously. He will not bring out Beast Oil in the Golden Age unless absolutely necessary, to avoid it potentially turning into Toxic Vapor.
As for the poor children in the orphanage, Chen Zao cannot bear to ignore them. He decides to follow through with his original plan and set up an underground production line for Health Supplements, creating a batch containing a minimal amount of Beast Oil to enhance their physical health.
After all, he has already produced quite a bit of Beast Oil in the Golden Age and has consumed a fair amount himself. In the future, he will continue to drink Beast Oil for health benefits, so he might as well produce a little more for the children; this should not have a significantly adverse effect on the atmosphere.
To trigger a global level of Toxic Vapor akin to that of the apocalypse, an enormous quantity of Beast Oil would be required. The small amount he is currently using will certainly not have a major impact.
After this instance, he will need to be cautious about transporting Beast Oil in the future and avoid using it whenever possible.
If he uncovers the truth behind the origin of the apocalypse and discovers that he is indeed its torchbearer, he will completely abandon promoting Beast Oil in the Golden Age.
In summary, he is determined to seek out the truth behind the origin of the apocalypse. Regardless of the outcome, he will do everything in his power to break the cycle of doom and restore human society to its normal historical trajectory.
For some time ahead, he will undoubtedly continue to traverse through the apocalypse frequently.
He hopes to win over Ren Ling; that beautiful girl is well-read and knows where to find ancient texts from A Century Ago. With Ren Ling as an assistant, his efficiency in locating traces from A Century Ago in the apocalypse will be greatly enhanced.
Ren Ling has also collected many antiques that flowed out from Qianling. If he can win her over, those antiques would then belong to him.
In any case, this stunning beauty is someone he must have.
Unfortunately, he has never been good at winning a woman's affection. He doesn't know how to pursue girls, especially when it comes to chasing someone like her—a goddess-level figure in this apocalyptic world who isn't particularly fond of gourmet food. He truly doesn't know how to capture Ren Ling's heart.
Perhaps only by becoming incredibly powerful himself and showcasing his reverse strength would he attract Ren Ling. After all, in the apocalypse, strength is revered.
Thinking about becoming stronger, Chen Zao immediately began practicing with the Qilin Arm, which possessed destructive power.
Previously, he had not practiced and had recklessly used the Qilin Arm to discharge electricity at trees. The result was akin to a novice driver speeding around a corner in a luxury sports car—it's a miracle he didn't crash!
He needed to fully familiarize himself with and repeatedly practice using the Qilin Arm before he could better control it and unleash its reverse power.
It was like an experienced driver getting accustomed to a new sports car; initial practice must start from inserting the key and starting the engine.
At this moment, Chen Zao's method of practicing with the Qilin Arm was quite basic. He placed his hand underwater to discharge electricity and stun fish, thereby increasing his understanding of this electric arm.
This method seemed boring at first glance, but it was actually quite fun in practice.
Chen Zao already enjoyed hunting and fishing in the wild. Now, he didn’t need a spear or fishing rod; he could simply electrocute the fish directly. This change brought him immense joy.
Before long, he had stunned over a dozen large fish beneath the waterfall.
Among them was a fish weighing over three pounds that struggled for quite some time in the electric net he created. Eventually, it was cooked by the electricity, floating belly-up on the surface of the water, emitting a delicious aroma that tempted Chen Zao, who was already hungry.
This wild fish, charred by the Qilin Arm, had a primal freshness that was even more enticing than grilled fish seasoned with various spices! Chen Zao savored every bite with delight.
