Chapter 1180 The Man Who Stands at the Top of the Food Chain… Realm Lord Di Tai!


The theme was Dried Pot.


Realm Lord Di Tai was really naughty.


Bu Fang’s mouth twitched as he glanced somewhat speechlessly at the realm lord, who looked overjoyed in the distance.


‘Is this guy stupid? What’s the point of being so naughty? If I come out with a Peris.h.i.+ng Pot, the whole first layer may be destroyed, and there will be no more tests!’ he thought.


Bu Fang knew Realm Lord Di Tai’s intention. This guy just wanted to look for a thrill.


After all, the realm lord had witnessed the Peris.h.i.+ng Pot’s terrible power but never tasted it before. He must be very curious about its taste and wanted to try it…


Of course, he also expected Bu Fang to remove the destructive power and just prepare a delicious Dried Pot.


His confidence made Bu Fang struggle a little.


Meng Qi rolled her eyes. She could read the realm lord’s naughty intention as well.


‘Bu Fang’s Peris.h.i.+ng Pot is a horrible killing instrument that can kill even a Little Saint, and yet this guy wants him to cook a Dried Pot… If Bu Fang doesn’t remove the destructive power, and the pot explodes as soon as he takes the first bite… Well, let’s see how the Realm Lord is going to wind up in this mess…’


The people around broke out in an uproar. They naturally didn’t know about Bu Fang’s Peris.h.i.+ng Pot—they broke out in an uproar simply because of the theme.


Bu Fang didn’t know anyone in this test. Gongshu Ban and the others were not here, and his opponents in the Immortal Chef Tournament had not broken through either.


However, there were many familiar faces in the audience, such as Xuanyuan Xiahui and Gongshu Ban.


“The theme is Dried Pot? What an… unorthodox theme!”


“The test is indeed worthy of being the Second Grade test. The theme is very difficult to tackle.”


“I have never cooked Dried Pot before. What if I fail?”


The partic.i.p.ants were all a little fl.u.s.tered. They never thought that Realm Lord Di Tai would make them cook Dried Pots. Although Dried Pot was a main category of food, and there were similar delicacies in the Immortal Cooking Realm, very few chefs knew how to prepare it. They didn’t know much about this dish.


Now that it was taken as the theme of the a.s.sessment, they found it very tricky.


As they began to think about the Dried Pot’s recipe, Bu Fang was somewhat speechless and bored.


He knew its recipe very well.


The origin of Peris.h.i.+ng Pot was a Dried Pot Cabbage fused with the Gourmet Array. The cabbage was Fiery Heart Cabbage, a very high-grade ingredient containing the Will of the Great Path that Bu Fang planted in Heaven and Earth Farmland.


It was not difficult to cook. The toughest part of preparing this dish was how to carve the Gourmet Array in it.


Bu Fang glanced at Realm Lord Di Tai. Suddenly, a faint smile brushed his lips.


‘Since he wants to taste my Dried Pot, I’ll satisfy him… Explode is not the only Gourmet Array I know…’


“Now that the theme is announced, you may return to your position. You have the time to brew half a pot of tea to think about the dish you want to cook. The dish must be ready to serve within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Anyone who fails to meet the time will have his cooking right revoked,” Gongshu Baiguang said in a stern voice.


All the partic.i.p.ants felt their blood begin to boil.


Sitting in the audience, Gongshu Ban clenched his fists in excitement. “I didn’t expect the theme to be Dried Pot… The Realm Lord is so bold!”


Xuanyuan Xiahui, Xuanyuan Xuan, and the others all looked at him with puzzled expressions.


When Gongshu Ban saw the confused look in their eyes, he became even more excited. To quench their thirst for knowledge, he planned to explain to them Owner Bu’s ultimate skill, the Peris.h.i.+ng Pot.


And so, he began to describe the scene when Bu Fang threw out a Peris.h.i.+ng Pot in the fifth layer and blew up the formidable existence behind the bronze gate.


In his description, the terrible Peris.h.i.+ng Pot had the power to destroy the world and was the number one murderous weapon.


That frightened Xuanyuan Xiahui and the others.


When they finally came to their senses, they gasped in terror.


“This means… the Realm Lord wants to taste Owner Bu’s Peris.h.i.+ng Pot? He is really bold!” Xuanyuan Xuan covered her red lips with a hand and said incredulously.


“That’s why my admiration for the Realm Lord’s courage is as endless as a great river. The Realm Lord is indeed an existence who stands at the top of the food chain! He is brave enough to face anything for the sake of delicious food!” Gongshu Ban exclaimed.


Xuanyuan Xiahui stroked his chin and said, “I don’t think Owner Bu would prepare a Dried Pot that will explode. It is a great murderous weapon, after all, so he would never use it on the Realm Lord…”


Gongshu Ban and the others nodded and thought Xuanyuan Xiahui had a point.


Bu Fang, of course, would not prepare a Peris.h.i.+ng Pot. He only needed to cook a normal Dried Pot without adding the Gourmet Array to it.


However, when he saw Realm Lord Di Tai’s triumphant look, he felt that he had to teach the guy something about life.


“The test begins now.” Gongshu Baiguang ignored the audience’s chatter and announced the beginning of the test.


The moment he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room changed.


Everyone became nervous. With a thought, they produced their cooking stoves, which fell to the ground with loud noises.


These youngsters all wished to become famous overnight. All they had to do was suppress the Great Demon King in this test. When the news spread, their names would be heard all over the Immortal Cooking Realm, making them famous overnight. Therefore, they were all working very hard to defeat Bu Fang.


As soon as the cooking began, every immortal chef’s eyes fell on Bu Fang. They were all First Grade Immortal Chefs, and many of them were geniuses. Some had waited for a long time before coming to take the Second Grade test just to make a splash.


Many people in the audience noticed the unusual atmosphere.


“No matter where Owner Bu goes, he will always become the center of attention, and naturally, some people will want to cover up his brilliance,” Gongshu Ban said with a smile on his face.


“In the end, however, those who attempt to do so will be torn into pieces by Owner Bu’s sharpness.”


“Yes… What will happen next should be very interesting…”



Bu Fang paid no attention to all the p.r.i.c.kly gazes shooting at him from around. If truth be told, he was a little excited now.


He glanced at Realm Lord Di Tai, who craned his head and was looking over curiously.


The strange look in his eyes gave the realm lord gooseb.u.mps.


‘What is this boy trying to do?’ Realm Lord Di Tai thought.


Bu Fang drew back his gaze. With a thought, one Fiery Heart Cabbage after another appeared in front of him, which he placed on the table.


Then, he reached out a hand and touched his waist. The next moment, the White Tiger Heaven Stove fell from the sky, letting out a tiger roar that shocked the other immortal chefs.


The arrogant White Tiger filled the air with pressure.


Flas.h.i.+ng with golden light, the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife made its appearance next. Bu Fang grabbed it, spun it, and began to process the cabbages. When the outer layers of the cabbages were removed, they had reddish burning flames inside.


In addition to cabbages, he needed meat to cook a Dried Pot. Bu Fang chose the Eight Treasures Pig’s belly. A dish cooked with pork belly would have a rich and attractive aroma.


He cut the pork belly into slices and marinated them with some sauce. When he was done, he placed the cabbages into a bowl and washed them with salted water. After that, he began to prepare ingredients. He needed many of them.


The Abyssal Chilli Sauce was a must. He also cut Exploding Flame Peppers into chunks, diced cloves of Purple Garlic, as well as chopped some Scale Tail Scallions, Son Mother Gingers, and others.


When everything was ready, Bu Fang flicked his fingers and shot a white fireball into the White Tiger stove. Then, he placed the Black Turtle Constellation Wok over the stove, preheated it, and poured some Spring of Life into it. In an instant, strong life energy spread out.


In the distance, many people were rendered speechless when they sensed the life energy dissipating in the air.


“What a wasteful guy! He’s using the Spring of Life!” Realm Lord Di Tai thumped his chest. “Do you know how precious the Spring of Life is? How can you use it for blanching?!”


When the water began to boil, Bu Fang dumped the cabbages he had broken into pieces into the wok. He waited until their colors changed slightly before scooping them all out with a strainer and placing them aside to drain the water. When there were no more cabbages in the wok, he discarded the Spring of Life, every drop of them…


Realm Lord Di Tai’s eyes went so wide that they almost popped out. “How could he waste the Spring of Life like that? Does he know how precious it is?!”


Bu Fang, of course, didn’t know how precious the water was. After all, he had the source of the Spring of Life, which could provide him an endless supply of the precious water. He naturally couldn’t understand Realm Lord Di Tai’s pain.


Sizzle…


He poured some oil into the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. When the oil was boiling hot, he dumped the Exploding Flame Pepper chunks and began to stir-fry them. After the peppers released their aroma, he added diced Purple Garlics, and when they also released their aroma, he dumped in the pork belly.


Sizzle…


Wisps of hot steam rose from the wok as a meaty fragrance filled the air.


All the people around Bu Fang inhaled deeply and gave him a solemn look. They felt the pressure, and they began to focus on the cooking of their dishes. Since they wanted to challenge him, they naturally needed to work with strength that could match his. Otherwise, they would become mere jokes.


Bu Fang stir-fried the pork belly slices until they released their fragrance and their colors changed slightly. Then, he poured in some wine. Wine could enhance the fragrance and make it even more enticing.


Next, he added the drained cabbages into the wok and stirred them together. When they were evenly mixed, he added the Abyssal Chilli Sauce and stirred again.


He didn’t stop stirring until a strong aroma wafted out of the wok. After that, he added some seasoning such as vinegar and turned off the heat.


He jerked the wok, causing the dish to roll and gleam inside. Finally, after filling the three iron lotus pots he had prepared in advance, the dish, Dried Pot Cabbage, was ready to serve.


Of course, there were some steps Bu Fang hadn’t completed yet.


The other partic.i.p.ants had also completed their dishes. Thunderclaps rang continuously in the sky as they began to face lightning punishments. However, many people discovered that Bu Fang’s dish didn’t attract lightning punishment.


“Could the Great Demon King have failed this time?”


“It’s possible! If it can’t attract lightning punishment, it means that the dish is… not qualified!”


“This is our opportunity to suppress the Great Demon King!”


The partic.i.p.ants watching Bu Fang all looked excited. Those who suppressed the Great Demon King would become famous in the whole Immortal Cooking Realm. It was a very tempting achievement for anyone.


Bu Fang picked up a Dried Pot. With a thought, a crystal fruit of life emerged in his hand. Then, his mental force surged and poured out of his mind, enveloped the fruit, and began carving a Gourmet Array in it. A short moment later, the carving of the array was done, and he put the fruit into the pot.


In just a flash, the crystal fruit of life fused with the dish, while the array gleamed and disappeared.


RUMBLE!


The lightning punishments in the sky began to stir as dark clouds rolled over and covered the whole sky in the blink of an eye. Suddenly, a deafening thunderclap rang out, and a thick bolt of lightning slithered out of the clouds.


The lightning punishment overshadowed the rest, and its pressure instantly scattered the other clouds.


Everyone was completely struck dumb…


The partic.i.p.ants, who thought they finally had an opportunity to suppress Bu Fang, could hear their hearts breaking.


The lightning punishment had scattered their clouds. What did that mean? It meant that the quality of the Great Demon King’s dish crushed theirs completely!


They all gasped, feeling dispirited. The scattering of their clouds meant that they had failed the test because their dishes did not go through a lightning punishment…


By this time, they no longer had the mood to compete with the Great Demon King. They could feel nothing but despair after that crus.h.i.+ng defeat.


BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!


After the seven lightning punishments had descended and were blocked by Whitey, the partic.i.p.ants finally realized that their ambitions of suppressing the Great Demon King were… extremely stupid.


The Great Demon King was… f*cking invincible!


Rumble!


The last lightning punishment faded away. Bu Fang’s Vermillion Robe fluttered as he gave Realm Lord Di Tai a playful look and said, “The Dried Pot Cabbage is… ready to serve.”


Buzz…


A strange wave of fluctuation spread out of the silver pot in his hand.


Upon sensing the fluctuation, everyone’s expression changed dramatically, while the realm lord’s face turned red and his eyes went wide.


“Is Bu Fang… crazy?! He really cooked me a Peris.h.i.+ng Pot? Is he trying to kill me so he can inherit my art of nudity?!”
