The pitch-black paw descended from the sky, ferociously smashing towards the bloody eyeball.
The eyeball rotated for a while before it sent out a bright light ray, intent on destroying Lord Dog’s paw!
However, Lord Dog’s paw smashed the light ray apart, landing directly on the eyeball.
Boom!
That paw tore the eyeball apart, reducing it to pieces. The remains changed into black smoke, which was then smashed by Lord Dog’s paw.
Everyone was stunned at this scene.
At this moment, even the eyes behind the bronze gate also shrank, their line of sight falling on Lord Dog’s figure.
That dog… is extremely daring!
It dared to smash the eyeball of the Nether Prison expert!
Bu Fang clenched his fists as he thought, ‘This Lord Dog is still so aggressive…’
Realm Lord Di Tai screamed excitedly.
Lord Dog’s paw made him feel refreshed, like his heart had been washed anew.
He couldn’t really describe this feeling!
Indeed, those Nether Prison guys should be treated violently like this. It would be a waste of time to say any words!
Don’t be afraid. Just do it!
Realm Lord Di Tai screamed inwardly, but he didn’t have these thoughts previously when confronted with the palm in the void. He was too afraid.
In the distance, the Tree Spirit of the Immortal Tree emitted radiance. The will of the Heavenly Path of the Immortal Cooking Realm slowly dispersed and fell into a deep slumber once again.
The Tree Spirit of the Immortal Tree was very weak, and soon, it would completely disperse. Once that happens, the Immortal Cooking Realm would fall into ruin, that’s why Realm Lord Di Tai needed to heal the Immortal Tree’s seedlings and help them mature before it happened.
When the Tree Spirit of the Immortal Tree disappeared silently, Realm Lord Di Tai’s excited expression also disappeared. Instantly, his body seemed to shoulder a burden.
In the distance, Lord Dog stood for a long time under that majestic and boundless Nether Prison city wall.
He raised his head, his mouth fuming out black flames. The head on the other side became slightly noticeable.
Lord Dog stared at the crack in the gate fearlessly!
Roar!
Suddenly, the crack in the gate trembled violently.
Bu Fang and the others were shocked as they looked on.
Then, they saw a cyan palm stretching out from the crack. However, it was stuck, writhing as though it wanted to tear open the bronze gate.
That palm was covered with blue veins. It tried so hard to pry the bronze gate open, but its efforts were futile. There was no way to push open that gate.
An unwilling roar resounded from behind the gate.
“Damn you, Earth Prison Dog! You can’t stop me! This damned seal won’t hold up for so long, and at that time, the Dark Nether Cooking Realm will invade the Immortal Cooking Realm. Everything will belong to the Dark Nether Cooking Realm! The Tree Spirit of the Immortal Tree and the Heavenly Path will finally belong to me!”
Boom!
A deafening blast reverberated from the crack.
The fearful pressure made everyone suck in a breath of cold air and feel very constrained.
Realm Lord Di Tai’s eyes shrank.
The roar was full of anger and ridicule, and it seemed to spread out in a flash.
Buzz…
That deafening sound echoed, resounding on all the five layers of the Immortal Cooking Realm.
This sound made the heart of each Immortal Cooking Realm’s expert sink, their minds reeling in shock.
The legs of many people turned into jelly, causing them to sit on the ground.
“What happened?”
“What’s that scary voice? It sounded like the voice of the devil!”
“Could it be the end of the Immortal Cooking Realm?”
All Immortal Chefs trembled as they felt the endless killing intent from this voice. Whether it were First Grade Immortal Chefs or Third Grade Immortal Chefs, their hearts were shrouded in fear.
At this moment, the people of the five layers panicked. They were really, really frightened.
Meanwhile, at the Heaven Nether Bridge, Realm Lord Di Tai’s face was very unsightly.
The Earth Prison Flame was burning around Lord Dog’s body, scorching and distorting the void.
Regarding this voice, Lord Dog’s mouth curved into a smirk. He raised his paw and patted the bronze gate.
Boom!
The gate, which was slightly pushed open, immediately closed under Lord Dog’s paw.
That booming sound echoed, and the cyan palm that was stretching out from the crack suddenly trembled and shrank.
The bronze gate was closed completely, leaving behind a cloud of dust and sand.
“What nonsense…” Lord Dog’s magnetic voice rang out.
A moment later, the Earth Prison Flame around his body slowly disappeared, and his body also shrank slowly.
The rolls of fat reappeared as he returned to his original fat dog appearance.
Lord Dog yawned and stuck out his tongue.
“Lord Dog is exhausted… This time, I need to eat some bowls of Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs to make up for it…” Lord Dog mumbled. Then, he stepped on the Heaven Nether Bridge once again.
Behind Lord Dog, the sound of impact continuously resounded along with a roar. That roar caused the stones in the city wall to crumble unceasingly.
With enchanting cat-like steps, Lord Dog stepped across the Heaven Nether Bridge. The fatty rolls on his body couldn’t help but jiggle while walking.
In just a short while, Lord Dog reached Bu Fang’s group, standing in front of them. He raised the corner of his mouth as he said, “Little Bu Fang, remember to cook some Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs for me… This Lord Dog feels very tired.”
After speaking, he climbed up the Netherworld Ship and laid down on the deck.
Everyone stared at each other blankly.
They couldn’t imagine that this sleepy and lazy dog was the peerlessly talented Earth Prison Dog, who used three barks to smash the palm and one paw to tear the evil eyeball apart.
“Exhibitionist, you should prepare yourself… Although Lord Dog closed the bronze gate, I treated the symptom but not the root cause. The seal had begun to weaken, and soon, those experts of the Dark Nether Cooking Realm would break through the seal. At that time, they will cross the Heaven Nether Bridge, and even Lord Dog could not help you…” The indifferent voice of Lord Dog came out from the Netherworld Ship.
Realm Lord Di Tai was stunned. But quickly, his face became dignified.
Indeed, the bronze gate was closed, but it was just a temporary solution.
“If we could make the Tree Spirit of the Immortal Tree burst out with vitality again, everything would be settled. If the will of the Heavenly Path could be restored, the Nether Prison people would not be able to come, and even if they did, they would only be able to act under the Immortal Cooking Realm’s rules!”
Realm Lord Di Tai exhaled. He had this solution in his mind early on.
However, it was not that simple.
There were only two Immortal Tree seedlings left, but one fell into half-death. He needed to use spring water that was full of vitality to heal and cultivate it.
But the said spring water was the Spring of Life…
It was very difficult to obtain the Spring of Life, and Realm Lord Di Tai also lacked confidence in his heart.
However, in order to save the Immortal Cooking Realm from the devastation of the Nether Prison, he had to get it.
The Immortal Tree seedling had been found, so the disturbance would soon come to an end.
It was originally a grand occasion in the Immortal Cooking Realm, but it almost became the source of the Immortal Cooking Realm’s destruction.
The Immortal Cooking Realm nurtured the traitor that had almost destroyed it. In this regard, Realm Lord Di Tai had an unavoidable responsibility.
Realm Lord Di Tai’s face was very solemn.
The Immortal Cooking Realm’s crisis had not been resolved, so the current pressure on his shoulders was much greater than before.
Bu Fang didn’t know how to comfort Realm Lord Di Tai, so he didn’t say anything.
In Nether Prison, there was the Dark Nether Cooking Realm, and it was a more flourishing chef world than the Immortal Cooking Realm.
Bu Fang felt that many big terrors awaited him.
“In the Dark Nether Cooking Realm… is there a Divine Chef?” Bu Fang asked in a low voice.
Above an Immortal Chef was a Qilin Chef, but above a Qilin Chef was a Divine Chef.
A Divine Chef… was a very vague concept.
It was something that made Bu Fang’s heart suddenly tremble.
His objective was to become the God of Cooking that would top the food chain in this fantasy world.
A Divine Chef… seems to be very close to this objective.
Bu Fang had even thought that the Divine Chef was precisely the God of Cooking.
However, the system didn’t give him any explanations, so he was still uncertain. Anyway, at least he had an idea now.
“Set a small objective… First, become a Divine Chef.” Bu Fang touched his chin as he sat cross-legged on the Netherworld Ship’s deck.
If Realm Lord Di Tai were to know Bu Fang’s small objective, he wouldn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
Divine Chef…
There was once a Divine Chef during the Immortal Cooking Realm’s golden age.
However, since the deterioration of the Immortal Cooking Realm began, a Divine Chef had not appeared for tens of thousands of years.
A Divine Chef… was an existence that no one dared to imagine.
Realm Lord Di Tai stood up. A moment later, milky-white jade talismans appeared in his hand.
He threw out the jade talismans, and each talisman changed into a sparkling light that spread out in all directions. Eventually, they turned into a magic array that covered the front of the Heaven Nether Bridge.
Now, if anyone crossed the bridge, Realm Lord Di Tai would know.
The situation suddenly became urgent, so Realm Lord Di Tai didn’t dare to relax.
Buzz…
Nethery’s hair spread out and fluttered as she stood in front of the Netherworld Ship.
Her pitch-black eyes stared at the tall Nether Prison city wall, and there seemed to be waves moving within their depths.
“Nether Prison… The curse on my body… seems to come from that place,” Nethery whispered softly. These words seemed to change into a gust of wind and drifted away.
Boom!
The Netherworld Ship rumbled. Then, it tore the void open and left.
…
Fifth Layer, Immortal Cooking Realm
In the Immortal Tree Square, City Lord Meng Qi and City Lord Zou sat on a chair, waiting anxiously.
Suddenly, the void was torn apart.
The Netherworld Ship emerged out of it.
City Lord Meng Qi and City Lord Zou’s eyes suddenly shone as they stared.
Realm Lord Di Tai landed in a dignified manner. He glanced at City Lord Meng Qi and City Lord Zou and sighed.
At this moment, the entire Immortal Cooking Realm was in chaos because of that evil-sounding voice.
“Little Meng Meng… Going through this lesson, this Realm Lord discovered that the Immortal Chefs in the Immortal Cooking Realm are really like flowers in a greenhouse. It is impossible to continue this way, so this Realm Lord has an important task to assign to you,” Realm Lord Di Tai said seriously as he looked at City Lord Meng Qi.
“Tell me.” City Lord Meng Qi frowned.
“From now on, all the cooking competitions of the Immortal Cooking Realm will be Chef’s Challenges. You need to spread this word and let all Immortal Chefs accept it. All layers need to set up a battle area and dispatch special referees to carry on the judgment of the Chef’s Challenge. If the flowers in the greenhouse want to grow up, they must go through practice. The method of great waves washing out the sand is very suitable for the present Immortal Cooking Realm.”
Realm Lord Di Tai’s voice was grave as he explained.
“The Immortal Cooking Realm is no longer a greenhouse, so they can’t continue to be flowers in that greenhouse. They must adapt to the cruel world. Perhaps this will help them deal with the Nether Chefs in the future.”
City Lord Meng Qi shivered.
The Immortal Cooking Realm was at a time of life and death.
The Netherworld Ship once again soared to the sky, tearing the void apart to disappear.
Regarding the future of the Immortal Cooking Realm, Bu Fang, Nethery, and the others did not wait to hear the specifics. They immediately returned to the first layer.
The Immortal Chef Tournament was over, and it was time for them to return to their Immortal Chef Little Store.
Moreover, Bu Fang was a bit impatient. In this tournament, he had gained a lot of benefits that he wanted to study. He couldn’t wait to enter the Heaven and Earth Farmland and discuss the matter of hybrid ingredients with Niu Hansan.
The birth of the Bursting Pissing Beef Meatball caused many ideas to appear in Bu Fang’s mind. Perhaps, it could change one side of the world with delicacies!
When the Netherworld Ship tore apart the void, Bu Fang and Nethery were slightly stunned as they stood on the bow of the ship.
They were floating outside Immortal Chef Little Store.
Underneath, there was a bustling sea of people…
Usually, the restaurant was deserted. But now, not a single drop could trickle through!
