Gourmet of Another World

No one could have imagined that the Chef’s Challenge would end in this way. Bu Fang beat Ah Zhuang, who was possessed by the God of Chef’s Challenge, by crushing the ratings. He didn’t win by a hair’s breadth, but by a wide margin. For a challenge like this, the difference of two stars was a crushing defeat.

The God of Chef’s Challenge was defeated by a mortal. Why was this God so weak? The crowd looked at each other, then watched as the Wheel of Law kept grinding Ah Zhuang in midair.

Inside the wheel was the Law of Chef’s Challenge, which represented the rules and order of all Chef’s Challenges. Even though Ah Zhuang was possessed by the God of Chef’s Challenge, he could not escape the rules. As a result, he was soon crushed into dust and vanished.

Bu Fang floated in midair with his hands clasped behind his back. His face was calm as if winning the so-called God of Chef’s Challenge did not bring him any surprise or joy. In fact, for him, it was just cooking.

After wiping out Ah Zhuang, the Wheel of Law slowly disintegrated. The next moment, an invisible force came out of it and drifted toward Bu Fang. Before the challenge began, the two of them had agreed that everything owned by the loser would go to the winner. However, the God of Chef’s Challenge had played a trick, so even though he was defeated, it was not him but Ah Zhuang who was killed.

With Ah Zhuang’s body gone, all his belongings went to Bu Fang. In Bu Fang’s view, however, these things were not precious. They were just ordinary things. He put them into the System’s storage space and then slowly descended and landed on the ground.

The homeland of the Nether Chef Clan had been completely reduced to ruins, with broken stones rolling here and there. Bu Fang walked slowly, while Lord Dog, Er Ha, and the others followed in midair.

Lord Dog stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. “Bu Fang boy, why do those prawns taste like Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs?” he asked curiously.

He had been unable to figure this out. He was sure that what Bu Fang cooked were prawns, but when he ate them, he tasted Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs. ‘Did Bu Fang boy put some kind of poison in me? A poison that makes me taste Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs in everything I eat?’

Er Ha was also very curious. Unlike Lord Dog, he tasted spicy strips. Why did prawns taste like spicy strips? Wasn’t this strange?

After pondering for a moment, Bu Fang tried to answer their doubts.

“Those are no ordinary prawns. The quality of the ingredient is already excellent, and I added the leaves of the Nine Revolution Great Path Tea Tree while cooking, which contain the Will of the Great Path. On top of that, I’ve cooked the dish with an invisible flame.”

He paused for a moment as if trying to think about how to explain so that they could understand. “The invisible flame was the combination of many Immortal flames and Nether flames that I’ve collected in the Nether Chef Clan’s homeland. It can be considered as the essence of fire and has all the emotions and worldly desires of many Nether Chefs.”

Bu Fang sighed softly.

“I may only be able to cook this dish once… You can call it the Nine Revolution Great Path Prawns. It is cooked with the Divine flame, and the Will of the Great Path is used as a guide. In the cooking process, many emotions contained in the Divine flame are integrated into the prawns… that’s why you have tasted all kinds of flavors.

“In fact, those are not flavors, but the real emotions in your hearts.

“Prawns are just carriers. Even if they have their own flavors, they will translate into the taste you desire in your hearts, and different people will taste different emotions when eating this dish.

“This is the reason why you tasted Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs, spicy strips, and seawater.”

Bu Fang’s explanation was somewhat convoluted, and it left the crowd a little confused.

A Divine flame? Where was the flame? Was it the invisible fire controlled by Bu Fang? Just now, Fire Demon Patriarch had been burned by it once, and the flames on him had almost been extinguished. He was a demon specialized in flames, and his control over flames was so strong that ordinary flames could not burn him at all. This proved that the power of Bu Fang’s flame was extraordinary.

Bu Fang gave them no further explanation of the Divine flame. It was still an invisible flame now because he had not integrated any Laws into it yet. According to the System, this Divine flame was very powerful, but it needed to integrate with the Laws. The more Laws it integrated, the stronger its power.

He certainly hoped that the power of the Divine flame would grow stronger and stronger. But the question now was where could he find the Laws? He stroked his chin and became lost in thought.

The crowd was still thinking about Bu Fang’s explanation. In any case, the fact that he had defeated a God in a Chef’s Challenge shocked everyone and made many people incredulous. It turned out that a God was not impossible to defeat.

The Wheel of Law in the sky had almost finished its disintegration. When the last wisp of the Power of Law dissipated, a muffled roar suddenly rang out. The next moment, the void tore apart into a rift, and then an arm stretched out of it. With a ripping sound, the crack grew larger, while terrible storms swept across the land, tearing at the void and destroying the stars.

Accompanied by a furious roar, a huge figure climbed out of the crack, emanating rolling divine power that made all the people present feel very depressed and kneel on the ground. There was shock on everyone’s face.

Bu Fang stood where he was and looked up at the huge figure. He seemed to have expected this to happen.

Lord Dog opened his mouth and yawned. His dog fur was waving in the wind, and his face showed no sign of surprise.

Di Ting floated in midair, looking at the crack in the void with sympathy in his eyes. ‘So he is the God of Chef’s Cooking? What a narrow-minded fellow.’

Yes, the figure that emerged from the crack was the God of Chef’s Challenge, or his spiritual clone who had possessed Ah Zhuang. A spiritual clone was the technique of a God. It was directly connected with the consciousness of the God and could exert about one-tenth of the God’s strength. Although it was not much, it was the power of a God after all and could not be resisted by mortals.

Rumble!

All the experts, whether from Earth Prison, Nether Prison, or other small worlds, knelt on the ground in fear. They had submitted under the pressure of a God and were shivering violently.

Terrible Power of the Laws surged in the air. There were three thousand Laws, including many that were beyond imagination.

After tearing apart the void and climbing out, the spiritual clone of the God of Chef’s Challenge floated in midair. He turned his eyes and fixed them at Bu Fang. Originally, as the carrier was wiped out, he should return to his true-self through the void, but he was unwilling to leave like this.

He was defeated in a Chef’s Challenge by a mortal chef, which made him look bad. As a God, how could he be defeated? Most importantly, he was reluctant to give up Bu Fang’s secret, the mysterious power. The aura that emanated from the God of Cooking’s divine power liquid drop attracted him like a deadly poison.

So he came back. He wanted to get Bu Fang’s secret! In his opinion, all the mortals present had to submit to him. Although Bu Fang possessed that power, he had not yet grown up, so he would not pose any threat to him.

Rumble!

With greed in his eyes, the God of Chef’s Challenge lifted a huge palm and slapped it down at Bu Fang. He was going to kill Bu Fang with a single blow.

“You insignificant mortal… How dare you offend a God! You’ll have to pay for it!” thundered the God of Chef’s Challenge.

On the ground, Bu Fang frowned. He didn’t expect that this God of Chef’s Challenge was shameless enough to attack him. He knew very well that this fellow came back not only because of the failure of the Chef’s Challenge, but more for his God of Cooking’s divine power liquid drops.

‘Since this God of Chef’s Challenge is so eager to get the God of Cooking’s divine power, he probably knows the source of the liquid drops… If so, what is his relationship with the God of Cooking?!’

Bu Fang took a deep breath and focused his eyes.

As the palm approached, the ground collapsed, and sand and stones flew in all directions. The experts, both from Earth Prison and Nether Prison, fled the scene at full speed, terrified.

A God had struck! The whole place would be destroyed soon!

Bu Fang stood where he was. His Vermilion Robe flapped noisily and turned fiery scarlet, while the flaming wings spread behind him. The ground under his feet collapsed again. The homeland of the Nether Chef Clan was originally located on a lofty mountain, but now, the mountain had long disappeared, and the terrain had sunken into a valley.

Suddenly, a black dog appeared in midair, wagging his tail lazily. Facing the palm thrown down by the God of Chef’s Challenge, Lord Dog twitched the corner of his mouth in disdain, then raised a paw.

“You’ve lost the Chef’s Challenge, and now you’ve come back for revenge? Don’t you know why you lost?”

Lord Dog’s gentle and magnetic voice echoed through the air as if he were questioning the God of Chef’s Challenge. The next moment, his paw flew across the void and collided with the huge palm.

A violent explosion broke out in an instant. The energy generated by the collision spread like ripples in all directions, slicing off a layer of the ground. As the smoke and dust cleared, the crowd saw that the huge palm slowly disintegrated and disappeared.

The God of Chef’s Challenge gave a deafening roar, which shook the whole Nether Prison and sent all the living things on their knees, trembling in fear.

With a humming sound, a golden Wheel of Law emerged in front of the huge God of Chef’s Challenge. That was the Wheel of the Law of Chef’s Challenge! At this moment, the wheel representing the rules of Chef’s Challenges was being used as a weapon!

Shrouded in countless Runes of Law, the wheel let out an oppressive whistle and sped toward Lord Dog, who was hovering in midair in front of Bu Fang.

The whole sky was full of rifts and turbulence. This was a clash of Gods, and when Gods were fighting, it meant destruction.

Lord Dog snorted and soared into the sky. The next moment, accompanied by a deafening bark, a black dog paw stretched out of the void. It was wrapped in Runes of Law and the aura of Time. That was the Law of Time comprehended by Lord Dog, which was one of the strongest Laws in the Universe.

The Law of Time collided with the Wheel of the Law of Chef’s Challenge!

Lord Dog did not comprehend as many Laws as the God of Chef’s Challenge, so he was slightly weaker in terms of fighting capacity. However, what he had comprehended was the strongest Law, so he was not weak at all.

On the ground, Bu Fang, who was pondering where to find the Laws to merge with his Divine flame, raised his head reflexively. Looking at the surging Power of the Laws colliding in the sky, he was slightly stunned. The next moment, his eyes lit up!

He had pondered so hard about where he could find the Laws, and it turned out that there was a Law waiting right in front of him!

The Law of Time belonged to Lord Dog, so he couldn’t merge it with his Divine flame. However, the God of Chef’s Challenge had delivered his Law to him! How could Bu Fang let this opportunity slip through his fingers?
