The moment Bu Fang rushed out of Tongtian’s sword array, the army of Soul Demons seemed to find their target and swarmed toward him in an instant.
It was a shocking scene when looking down from the sky. The countless Soul Demons appeared like a swarm of ants who had found a bun and was crawling over it.
However, what was more shocking was that they began to burn the next moment. The flames spread quickly and enveloped all the Soul Demons, burning them into ashes in groups. And what caused this was just… a piece of stinky tofu!
Yang Jian was astonished, and so were Tongtian, the people of Hua, and the people around the globe. A piece of stinky tofu had eliminated at least millions of Soul Demons? When did stinky tofu become so powerful? So stinky tofu was actually the bane of these demons?
The world broke out into a commotion, especially the people of Hua. It turned out that the pungent stinky tofu could suppress those Soul Demons. It had brought them hopes like a torch in the winter.
For a moment, the stalls selling stinky tofu on the streets all over Hua were surrounded by people, and their stinky tofu was sold out almost instantly. At this moment, stinky tofu had become the faith of all people!
…
The few Soul Overlords had not figured out what had happened yet. They reached out their hands, each grabbing a piece of stinky tofu. An aroma wafted toward them, making their pupils constrict. The stinky tofu with its delicious aroma was too tempting for Soul Demons.
Greed Soul Overlord focused his eyes. As Soul Overlords, their resistance to stinky tofu was stronger. He crushed the stinky tofu with his fingers and found a tiny flame in it, which was the culprit that caused the Soul Demons to be burned!
“Damn humans!” he growled.
However, before his growling finished, a loud noise rang out, and then Sloth Soul Overlord, lying on the palanquin, was knocked into the ocean. The remaining three Soul Overlords were stunned.
“This… What happened?!”
The few Numbered Soul Demons who carried the litter grew ferocious. Roaring, they flew toward Bu Fang.
Bu Fang, on the other hand, was calm and relaxed as he faced these Numbered Soul Demons. His current strength was already far stronger than before. With a thought, the divine fire appeared and turned into many fire lotus flowers around him.
Then, with a flick of his finger, these fire lotuses shot forward, caught the approaching Numbered Soul Demons, and burned them into ashes in just a flash. Their true forms failed to struggle out of their flesh and were incinerated as well. After merging with the primordial fire of mankind, the divine flame became even more powerful over Soul Demons.
In the distance, Gluttony Soul Overlord, Greed Soul Overlord, and Envy Soul Overlord were boiling with rage at the same time. Bu Fang’s aggressiveness had infuriated them.
Tongtian, on the other hand, burst out laughing as he watched Bu Fang fight with such aggressiveness and saw the Soul Demons fall around them. “It’s so relieving! Well done, fellow Daoist Bu!”
Then, he stepped forward, soared into the sky, put his index and middle fingers together, and made a swiping gesture with them. A sword swept out in an instant, cutting countless Soul Demons into pieces. Bu Fang’s aggressiveness had taken a lot of pressure off him!
“I want… braised meat! Haha!” The four immortal swords rose into the sky from behind the Sect Leader, spinning and cutting down countless Soul Demons.
Holding his three-pronged halberd, Yang Jian’s third eye narrowed slightly. “Fellow Daoist Bu is so strong! I can feel that my blood is boiling!” he said. The next moment, he brought Howling the Celestial Dog out of the sword array, rushed into the Soul Demon army, and began to slaughter them.
He did not have Bu Fang’s terrifying power, but as an Immortal-Emperor-to-be, his strength was strong enough to kill an Immortal Emperor. He was True Lord Erlang of the Celestial Court, who was called a Little Saint by many Immortals, so he naturally had unique strength!
The three-pronged halberd spun and thrust out, filling the air with sharp energy and cutting countless Soul Demons into pieces with just one blow. Then, Yang Jian fought fiercely with a Numbered Soul Demon before finally cutting down his opponent’s head. Blood sprayed all over his armor and made him look mightier.
“Howling, it’s your turn!” Yang Jian’s third eye widened as he bellowed.
The Celestial Dog grew larger and let out a deep bark. Then, it turned into a beam of black light, bolted forward, swooped down on a Numbered Soul Demon. It kept scratching the latter’s face with its sharp claws. Suddenly, the tips of the three-pronged halberd pierced through the Soul Demon’s chest!
…
The sea exploded with a rumble. Then, a huge, fat hand stretched out of the water and slapped Bu Fang in an instant. The next moment, Sloth Soul Overlord, now standing ten thousand feet tall, rushed out of the sea, his eyes filled with fury.
“Why did you kick me out of my palanquin?!” the Soul Overlord growled. He clapped his palms together to squash Bu Fang, but his pupils constricted suddenly when he saw a knife slash through them. In just a flash, both his palms had been cut into countless tiny pieces.
The knife had only struck once, but it turned into thousands of slashes in a flash!
However, Sloth Soul Overlord was, after all, a Soul Overlord. His flesh had just wriggled for a while, and his missing palms had grown back. Then, he clenched his fist and threw a punch at Bu Fang, who stood in midair holding the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife.
Bu Fang raised his brows and shook his Taotie Arm. The energy of Yin and Yang swirled around the arm as he threw out a punch as well.
A deafening rumble rang out as the two fists collided. Sloth Soul Overlord was instantly knocked back into the ocean as his fat kept trembling. Even then, Tongtian arrived to deal a finishing blow. His four immortal swords fell and cut the Soul Overlord into countless pieces!
The next moment, the other three Soul Overlords struck out at the same time and fought with Bu Fang and Tongtian. Down below, Sloth Soul Overlord had recovered, but he was one size smaller. Suddenly, he did not wish to fight anymore, and he wanted to flee.
However, he had just turned around when a black wok smashed him in the face and threw him up into the air. Then, a rumbling sound rang out, and the sea exploded as a knife viciously slashed down from above, cutting him in half!
He quickly recovered, but the knife slashed down again and cut him into pieces. He recovered again, and the knife cut him into pieces again… Eventually, he abandoned his fleshly body and turned into his twisting black soul form to flee.
However, a bestial roar echoed out at that moment. Behind Bu Fang, Qilin’s figure emerged. He rubbed his paws, then impatiently grabbed Sloth Soul Overlord’s true form with his claws, brought him to his mouth, and swallowed him in one gulp like how a chick would swallow a worm.
The three remaining Soul Overlords were furious! But at the same time, they were somewhat frightened… Although they had just stepped into the Soul Overlord realm, they could not be so weak! And yet, this human before them, who was not even a Saint of the Great Path, had cut them down as if they were melons or vegetables.
Most importantly, in front of this human, they could not even escape in their true forms! This was what scared them the most.
The Black Turtle Constellation Wok hovered in midair and kept spinning. Bu Fang snapped his fingers. The divine flame emerged immediately and began to roar under the wok.
Suddenly, Gluttony Soul Overlord growled and threw a black energy ball at Bu Fang, but the latter dodged it.
The Vermilion Robe fluttered, and Bu Fang seemed to be dancing in the sky. The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife spun in his hand, showing a beautiful pattern. Then, it slashed down. The Sloth Soul Overlord’s fat body was immediately cut into a square chunk of meat and fell into the wok. Bu Fang actually started cooking in full view of all the people.
Tongtian laughed. With the four immortal swords wheeling around him and the green sword in his hand, he charged over and fought the three remaining Soul Overlords.
The ocean churned, and colors flashed in the sky. However, the most eye-catching thing was the wok hovering in midair with flames roaring under it. Bu Fang had slain the Soul Overlord amid millions of Soul Demons and was braising his flesh. This was simply too… exciting!
…
At Kunlun, the Queen Mother was struck dumb, while none of the Immortals dared to say a word.
“Hmm… This evil man is truly fierce. Let’s keep that shop for him.”
The Immortals looked at each other and nodded.
Meanwhile, in the United States, the people watching the battle in the main command room were screaming with excitement. Countless people in Hua were cheering with excitement as well, while those familiar with him kept shouting his name.
“Senior!”
“Senior!”
Some people did not know whether to laugh or cry. It was clearly a serious battle that would decide the fate of humanity, but why did it turn into a cooking show?
Looking at the boiling black wok on the screen, someone said, “You have eaten strange beasts, Gods’ mounts, and even Gods… And now you’re going to eat… demons?! Are you planning to eat everything in the universe?!”
The world had not thought that Soul Demons were edible. Someone tried their meat and felt extremely disgusted with it. However, when they looked at the braised meat in the black wok, which was steaming and glowing, they felt that it had included all the good things in the world…
…
Bu Fang’s movements were not slow. He seemed to be dancing in midair, parrying the Soul Overlords’ attacks while paying close attention to the braised meat in the wok.
An aroma permeated the air. To human beings, it smelled delicious, but Soul Demons found it highly repulsive. The few Soul Overlords hated it to the core. They could not believe that this human was using such a despicable tactic! He actually used stench to disgust them and lower their fighting power! This was too much!
Greed Soul Overlord was boiling with rage. He approached Bu Fang again and again while holding his breath, but his attacks were all dodged.
Suddenly, Greed Soul Overlord howled in agony, and his blood spilled across the sky. “Ahhh! My wing!”
Bu Fang grabbed the Soul Overlord’s wing, blinked, and said, “Hmm… I can grill this wing…”
“You damn human!” Greed Soul Overlord was so angry that his body and soul were shivering. He could not believe this f*cking human being actually tore off his wing!
In Hua, everyone was staring at the screen, and countless people were shouting.
“Senior, you can stir-fry the wing with onions!”
“That’s boring! You can make a braised wing! Super delicious!”
“Pickled peppers! Cook it with pickled peppers!”
Hua was a nation of foodies, so many people were offering their opinions. What started out as a nightmarish battle had turned into a somewhat comical cooking show…
The people of Hua were all praising, “Senior is truly a Hua Immortal, for he has the trait of someone from Hua… Anyone who violates Hua will be eaten!”
…
A bubbling sound rang out, and the lid of the Black Turtle Constellation Wok began to tremble. Bu Fang focused his eyes and slapped the wok with his palm. With a loud noise, the lid soared into the sky. Then, he flicked his fingers, and the lid spun and sped forward, piercing through countless Soul Demons.
At the moment, not many Soul Demons were left—the ordinary Soul Demons had been wiped out by Bu Fang’s stinky tofu. The survivors were some Numbered Soul Demons and stronger Soul Demons.
As the lid flew away, a plume of white steam immediately thrust out of the wok, and a rich fragrance spread through the air. Yang Jian, exhausted, sprang to life at the aroma. The Celestial Dog, Howling, was panting for breath, but when it sniffed the smell, its eyes lit up and its tail stood up once again.
The three Soul Overlords were furious, while all Numbered Soul Demons were terrified. Sloth Soul Overlord was really made into braised meat!
With a thought from Bu Fang, golden-red light burst from the wok, and then five pieces of braised meat flew out, each enveloped in blinding light.
“How dare you, human!” The three Soul Overlords roared, but they were shaking inside.
Bu Fang naturally ignored them. With a flick of his fingers, four of the five pieces of braised meat turned into streams of light and flew toward four people.
Laughing, Tongtian held out the green sword, caught the braised meat with the sword tip, and brought it before his face. He took a deep breath, and the rich aroma filled his nostrils instantly. “Good meat!” he said, then took a bite.
Yang Jian held out his hand to hold the braised meat, while the Celestial Dog wagged its tail excitedly. He narrowed his eyes and said, “I’ll give it a taste first and save some for you.”
The Celestial Dog nodded. Then, Yang Jian shoved the braised meat into his mouth and took a bite. His eyes lit up, and he took one more bite. After that, he took another bite…
The Celestial Dog watched as Yang Jian ate until his lips were full of grease. When he shoved the last bit of braised meat into his mouth, the dog barked and bared its teeth.
‘Dammit, where is the basic trust between a man and a dog?!’
Yang Jian ignored the whining Celestial Dog. After eating the meat, his third eye suddenly lit up. He threw his head back as a beam of light shot out of his mouth and his aura soared!
Immortal energy boiled around him as his cultivation base, which was at the level of an Immortal-Emperor-to-be, suddenly stepped into the Immortal Emperor realm and even approached the level of a Saint-to-be!
A piece of braised meat cooked with a Saint-level food ingredient had made him into a Saint-to-be in the blink of an eye.
Nethery and the Empyrean Fairy ate the meat as well. Nethery’s aura remained unchanged, but the fairy’s cultivation base skyrocketed.
Bu Fang’s dish was comparable to spirit pills!
The three Soul Overlords were extremely angry, but they were very frightened as well. The moment the braised meat left the wok, their fighting will was destroyed.
In other universes, they were invincible, but when they came to the Ancestral Planet of mankind, they became food ingredients… It was not easy for them to evolve to this level, so they naturally did not want to become ingredients.
Without hesitation, the three Soul Overlords turned and fled. When the Numbered Soul Demons saw that the Soul Overlords were fleeing, they did not hesitate to follow them.
A rumbling sound filled the air. As the people around the globe watched, the Soul Demons were defeated and routed! Countless people began to cheer.
The three Soul Overlords separated and sped toward three different directions. Their strength was on the same level as a Saint of the Great Path, so no one could stop them if they wanted to flee. But they soon learned that they were wrong.
Suddenly, the phantasms of four huge divine beasts—the Black Turtle, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Gold Dragon—emerged in the sky over the ocean, forming the Array of Four Quadrants and trapping the three Soul Overlords inside.
After finishing the braised meat, Bu Fang licked his lips with his tongue and squinted at the three Soul Overlords. His stomach rumbled, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
“Did I say you can leave?”
