Chapter 1242 Eat a Meatball to Quell the Fear?

Boom!

It was as if the shackles that bound him were taken off. At this moment, his cultivation base was fully revealed, and an aura of a half-step Saint exuded from his body, towering into the sky. Even then, a pair of flaming wings appeared behind him, accompanied by a loud bird’s cry, while flaming feathers kept falling in the air.

It was an amazing sight, and everyone was dazzled by his sudden outburst of power.

His divine will was unexpectedly strong, enveloping him like a layer of hazy golden light. It spread like the sea and pressed on everyone’s heart, causing their breathing to become rapid and their pupils to constrict.

Bu Fang clasped his hands behind him and stood where he was. His faint voice made everyone’s mind tremble.

Of all the people, the half-step Saint was the most shocked because he was directly facing the pressure from Bu Fang. To him, it was as if an ant had suddenly become an existence no weaker than himself. It was a feeling that could not be described with words, and it brought a great impact on his mind.

After a brief shock, however, he came to his senses.

“So what if you are a half-step Saint? I have a peculiar wind, and I can blow out your soul and your flesh with it!” he growled. His eyes narrowed at Bu Fang as he tightened his grip on his pike.

The next moment, he stepped forward and dashed toward Bu Fang, following the black crescent-shaped slash shot out by the Peculiar Wind Pike.

Rumble!

The audience outside the arena held their breaths and were completely captivated by the intensity of the fight.

In the arena, Bu Fang’s robes fluttered noisily. His expression grew serious in the face of his opponent’s powerful attack. With a shake of his hand, the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife fell into his grip. As soon as the knife appeared, a dragon roar rang out, and it emitted a dazzling golden light, attracting everyone’s attention.

“DIE NOW!” roared the half-step Saint from the Blackwind Continent.

The ground kept crumbling as if the topmost layer had been lifted, while oppressive blasts kept blowing toward Bu Fang.

Even then, he raised his kitchen knife and gently swung it at the black crescent-shaped pike light. It was a simple and direct cut, but as soon as it appeared, the atmosphere in the arena changed.

Boom!

A vague shadow suddenly emerged behind Bu Fang. It seemed to have come out of the void, emitting a very terrible aura as it stood above the sky and looked down at the vast world. In its hand, it held a knife so powerful that it seemed to cut the sky to pieces.

The next moment, the shadow brought the knife down. Heaven and earth seemed to have quieted down, as if even if a deity descended now, he would be beheaded by this knife as well.

“A slash… Cutting Immortal Style,” Bu Fang said in a cool voice, his face expressionless.

In the blink of an eye, a golden knife light burst out of the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife and collided with the black crescent-shaped pike light. A deafening rumble resounded through the sky, and powerful blasts swept out in all directions.

The half-step Saint followed the pike light to give Bu Fang a fatal blow. However, he never expected that Bu Fang’s attack would be so powerful. In a flash, his black wind and pike light crumbled and disappeared, and then the knife light continued to approach him. It was too late for him to dodge, so he had to fight it with his flesh. He thrust out his pike, cras.h.i.+ng it with the knife light.

The next moment, his chest exploded, and his body flew backward like a cannonball, smashed to the ground, and was pushed out of the arena by a mighty force.

The audience fell into a dead silence.

Ever since Bu Fang revealed his half-step Saint cultivation base, he had been suppressing his opponent, whether in momentum, mental force, or even skills. The end result was that the half-step Saint from the Blackwind Continent, who had thought he could win, was defeated with only one stroke of a kitchen knife.

The air was thick with the smell of the half-step Saint’s blood.

The previously clamoring audience was petrified. No one thought that the weak Immortal Cooking Realm had quietly produced a half-step Saint, who managed to turn the tide at the last moment by defeating two contestants from the Blackwind Continent in a row. It was like a slap in everyone’s face, for almost all the audience had supported the Blackwind Continent.

The Vajra Realm expert’s face grew dark as if he had constipation, and his eyes widened in disbelief. He punched the ground and said, “Dammit! Rubbis.h.!.+ All the contestants from the Blackwind Continent are c.r.a.p! I can’t believe they can’t even defeat this lizard… Garbage!” His forehead was covered with veins as he flew into a rage.

Bu Fang’s true cultivation base surprised everyone. Although a half-step Saint was nothing to them, the sudden increase in his strength still frightened them. They all thought that perhaps the Immortal Cooking Realm could go further in this tournament.

“Amitabha! This poor monk knew from a look at Owner that he’s not an ordinary man.”

“A man who can cook such delicious dishes is naturally not ordinary…”

“Owner, it’s boring to fight and kill. Just finish the fight and go back to cook teppanyaki for us!”

After a moment of silence, someone in the audience spoke. Bu Fang surprised everyone with his strength, but the experts who had tasted his teppanyaki octopus tentacles still preferred his cooking.

The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched when he heard them. Soon, the golden light faded away. He put the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife away, clasped his hands behind his back, and stood in the middle of the arena with an expressionless face.

His image was transmitted to all the surrounding worlds through the projection array.

The team match had attracted a lot of attention.

…

The whole square in the Immortal Cooking Realm was silent. Everyone was staring blankly at the light screen. Some people rubbed their eyes, wondering if their eyes had deceived them. However, when they saw the figure on the light screen, the man who clasped his hands on his back and stood in the middle of the arena, their blood boiled.

“He won! The Great Demon King has won!”

“The Great Demon King is invincible! He didn’t disappoint us!”

“He really is the Great Demon King who always walks at the forefront of miracle creation! He shocked us all once again!”

The Immortal Cooking Realm experts burst into an uproar. They talked to each excitedly, unable to restrain their emotions. Many vendors in the square even offered a fifty-percent off on their food because of excitement. The aroma of food, the heat coming from the stoves, and the excitement of the people were mixed together, making the whole square very lively.

Meng Qi was smiling. ‘I knew this would happen… Bu Fang’s strength is always hard to see through, and he never lets anyone down.’

…

‘He won?!’ Mo Yan gawked at the heroic figure standing in the arena. She couldn’t help getting excited. ‘He relies on women? A boy toy? A greedy peddler? No… All these are our false perceptions of him. It turns out that our arrogance is so laughable in the Great Demon King’s eyes. He’s really very strong!’

Zhu Yan’s swollen face was filled with excitement. Bu Fang had won two matches in a row, and as long as he won the next one, he would lead the Immortal Cooking Realm team to the next round. How could this not excite him? Of course, he also felt guilty and ashamed to face Bu Fang. After all, he had been so arrogant and impolite to him. He thought that the Great Demon King was getting old, and he had not taken him seriously. That, it now seemed, was just his wishful thinking. The Great Demon King didn’t take him seriously at all. Now he finally understood why Realm Lord Di Tai had asked the Great Demon King to take care of them. It turned out that Bu Fang really had the strength to do that.

‘Dammit! From now on, I’m a loyal supporter of the Great Demon King!’

“Bah! He had just defeated a half-step Saint, one that came from a backward world, and yet they all acted as if they had won the tournament. What a bunch of b.u.mpkins,” said the Vajra Realm expert coolly, his huge muscles twitching. Looking at Zhu Yan, who was laughing excitedly, he sneered discontentedly. He just didn’t like how Zhu Yan looked so excited with that swollen face.

“What the f*ck are you excited about?”

The Vajra Realm expert’s voice rang beside Zhu Yan’s ears, filling his eyes with anger.

In the arena, Commander Mo Yuan announced Bu Fang’s victory, then asked him if he needed rest.

“I’m in a hurry. Let’s just move on to the next match. Otherwise, the meat I’m cooking will burn,” Bu Fang said, twitching the corner of his mouth.

Although Xuanyuan Xiahui was also an immortal chef, he might not be able to handle the demon frog meat. It was because the meat contained Bu Fang’s spiritual pressure. If he couldn’t handle it, the meat would burn.

Bu Fang’s words made everyone gasp.

“How arrogant he is…”

“When did the Immortal Cooking Realm have such arrogant people?”

“Does he really think that by defeating a half-step Saint, he has won the whole world?”

“The Blackwind Continent is just a small world, and the strongest experts there are only half-step Saints… What has he got to be proud of?”

Even then, another expert stepped into the arena. He was the other half-step Saint from the Blackwind Continent. As he made his appearance, a terrible aura swept through the audience. His eyes were full of violence, and he even had the Blackwind Continent’s Will of the Great Path swirling above his head.

“This half-step Saint… has almost fully stepped into the Little Saint realm!”

“His aura is not much weaker than that of a Little Saint! This chef is in trouble…”

“He has begun to fuse with the Will of the Great Path. This kind of strength is far greater than the mentally r.e.t.a.r.ded half-step Saint just now! The chef’s going to be severely beaten!”

Looking at the mighty half-step Saint from the Blackwind Continent, the audience chatted noisily, their eyes beaming with excitement. They were not happy with Bu Fang. To them, it was boring for an underdog to turn the tide and defeat the strong one. What they wanted was blood, and what they wanted to see was a weakling being tortured by an expert! That was what got them excited! They didn’t want to be shocked. They wanted excitement!

“Kill him!”

The audience roared and clamored outside the arena.

Bu Fang raised his eyebrows and looked at the half-step Saint standing opposite him.

“I thought I didn’t need to fight… I didn’t expect the Immortal Cooking Realm to hide so deep. You made a Six-star True Immortal your leader, while your real expert is waiting to surprise your opponents… You despicable reptiles!” The half-step Saint’s eyes turned red as he growled.

Boom!

There was once again a black wind in the arena. Compared with the previous half-step Saint, this one was indeed much stronger. The scene made many people nervous again.

The Immortal Cooking Realm experts watching through the light screen quieted down. Their eyes were fixed on the screen, and their hearts were praying. They had pa.s.sed one obstacle, but they met another right away. How far could they go?

Zhu Yan and his companions clenched their fists with mixed emotions.

“Can the Great Demon King… still create miracles?!”

Boom!

The black wind kicked up a cloud of sand. Suddenly, the Blackwind Continent’s Will of the Great Path descended from the sky, turned into a huge hand full of mighty pressure, and slapped down toward Bu Fang.

“I’m going to slap you into meat paste!”

There was a roar of rage as the last half-step Saint of the Blackwind Continent mustered all his energy and threw out a palm. The attack shocked many people, as it was as powerful as that of a Little Saint!

Many experts from other small worlds of the same standard as the Blackwind Continent looked wary, and they told themselves to watch out for this half-step Saint’s attack in the upcoming matches should they were to fight each other. At the same time, they were very excited because they would finally see the little reptile from the Immortal Cooking Realm be slapped to death!

“What will the chef use to resist a palm that has the Will of the Great Path? A kitchen knife?!”

No one could have predicted how Bu Fang would fight this move.

His mind stirred, and suddenly, a meatball appeared in his hand, blooming with bright golden light. Then, with a straight face, he lifted the meatball and took a bite. The meatball split open, and a rich aroma burst from it.

The scene left everyone dumbfounded again!

“A meatball? I can’t believe he pulled out a meatball during the match!”

“Is it because this little chef knows he’s going to lose, so he wants to eat a meatball to quell his fear?!”

“Is this guy here to joke around?!”
