Gourmet of Another World

Three days passed quickly.

In these three days, the entire Immortal Cooking Realm had experienced a lot of disasters.

Many Immortal Chefs had become restless and anxious. In only three days, so many unbelievable things had happened in the Immortal Cooking Realm.

First, the savage beasts came!

Outside the Immortal Cities, hordes of beasts arrived, baring their fangs and claws. With many Beast Emperors in the lead, they had prepared to attack the Immortal Cities.

The guards of the Immortal Cities were forced to man up and kill the enemies to protect their respective cities, which were turning into ruins from the beasts’ raid.

Every layer was being swarmed by beasts, making the people living in the cities feel scared and vulnerable.

The beasts rarely raided the city, but now, all five layers were being attacked! It meant some incident was about to occur!

Aside from the beasts’ raids, other unbelievable events had also happened.

Following the emergence of the beasts came an earthquake, the drying of water sources, and the withering of immortal herbs…

The great rivers in the five layers began to dry out, showing the riverbeds. Water had become scarce.

At this pace, in half a month, the water sources in the entire Immortal Cooking Realm would be completely drained.

The Immortal Cooking Realm, a place to nurture Immortal Chefs, would be reduced to only a name without any water.

Cooking required water. Everything needed water.

The air grew drier and hotter. Even the moisture in the air was quickly evaporating.

These disasters had come so suddenly. Hence, everyone was frightened.

What left them feeling even more horrified was that the Immortal Tree was dying!

The Immortal Tree grew through the five layers of the Immortal Cooking Realm, reaching into the sky. Now, however, its leaves had dried up and fallen. Cracks appeared on the branches, from which endless vitality scattered out of.

To people who believed in the Immortal Tree, seeing it die was a disaster.

Once the Immortal Tree reached the lowest point, it wouldn’t have enough energy to support all the five layers of the Immortal Cooking Realm.

At that time, the entire Immortal Cooking Realm would shatter, causing the five layers to crash into each other. Everything would collapse.

This disaster was something that terrified people!

Be it the ordinary people, First Grade Immortal Chefs, or Third Grade Immortal Chefs, they were all panic-stricken.

As Realm Lord Di Tai had instructed, City Lord Meng Qi was now in charge of order in the Immortal Cooking Realm.

However, she was really worried at the moment.

Luckily, even though she looked fragile, her deeds were great. This helped her uphold order in the Immortal Cooking Realm.

However, Meng Qi knew that it wasn’t a good method.

As the Immortal Tree had begun to die, the order in the Immortal Cooking Realm would collapse completely one day. At the moment between death and life, talks of order were nothing.

Meng Qi knew the reason.

In the Immortal Tree space, the Immortal Tree was halved. This had hurt the will of the Heavenly Path, sending the Tree Spirit into a coma.

That was why it had begun to absorb the energy of the earth and other natural resources to recover.

This was also the reason why the water across the layers had been drying up and also why the spirit energy was disappearing fast.

However, even though Meng Qi understood what had caused this, she had no solution to it.

She looked up at the sky and sighed.

…

In the wooden house in the fifth layer, Realm Lord Di Tai was releasing his true energy.

A seed of the Immortal Tree hovered in front of him.

The golden seed was emitting tens of thousands of light beams.

Realm Lord Di Tai was trying to get the Immortal Tree’s seed to sprout.

If it sprouted, Realm Lord Di Tai could plant it at the center of the Immortal Tree, and it’ll generate sufficient energy to help the Immortal Cooking Realm overcome this disaster.

However, despite his attempts, the seed didn’t show any signs of sprouting.

Three days!

After trying for three days straight, Realm Lord Di Tai’s energy was almost completely drained.

However, the Immortal Tree’s seed just released a gold radiance. It didn’t show any sign of awakening or sprouting.

“Damn! Will the Immortal Cooking Realm decline this way?”

Realm Lord Di Tai looked nervous and unwilling. He didn’t want to see the Immortal Cooking Realm die just like that.

As the Realm Lord, how could he let the Immortal Cooking Realm collapse in his hands?

“Maybe I do need to go to Earth Prison and search for the Spring of Life…” Realm Lord Di Tai sighed.

His eyes sparked with determination, but he couldn’t leave the Immortal Cooking Realm now.

He didn’t dare to go to Earth Prison right now. If he leaves and comes back later to face the shattering Immortal Cooking Realm, he would be in so much despair.

However, without the Spring of Life, the Immortal Tree’s seedlings won’t recover, causing the Immortal Cooking Realm to still decline.

At that time, they wouldn’t have the power to resist the experts from Nether Prison.

Realm Lord Di Tai felt a little upset. He pounded his chest, raised his hand, and took the seed.

“I can’t go to Earth Prison… But I know someone who can…”

Realm Lord Di Tai’s eyes focused.

With a gentle swish, his robe billowed as he walked out of the wooden house.

…

Ya Ya looked a little exhausted.

As Realm Lord Di Tai’s assistant, she understood the precarious situation of the Immortal Cooking Realm the most.

It had been so many years since the Immortal Tree began its decline. Otherwise, the number of Qilin Chefs wouldn’t have decreased so much.

During its glory days, the Immortal Cooking Realm had hundreds of Qilin Chefs, and it even had a legendary Divine Chef who protected it.

However, in this era, the number of Qilin Chefs could be counted with her fingers. It felt like the Immortal Cooking Realm was an old person in the late phase of their life.

Two days ago, the Realm Lord chaired a meeting with the City Lords to announce the grave situation, and now, more bad news was being reported by the City Lords.

Ya Ya’s heart trembled, overwhelmed with despair.

At this moment, she finally admired and respected the Realm Lord.

Although Realm Lord Di Tai always looked like a hilarious moron, he could still arrange everything well under such a dangerous situation.

He had become a pillar in everybody’s heart.

Ya Ya’s eyes watered, and she had to wipe them to see the surroundings clearly.

At this moment, she understood the pressure the Realm Lord had to shoulder!

All of a sudden, she heard the commotion inside the wooden house.

Ya Ya wiped her tears. Instantly, she looked at Realm Lord Di Tai with hope in her eyes.

“Ya Ya, stay here and receive all information from the City Lords. I’m going to do something…” Realm Lord Di Tai ordered.

All of a sudden, he became bewildered.

As he stared at Ya Ya with her thinned lips, Realm Lord Di Tai felt his heart ache.

He reached out, rubbed Ya Ya’s hair, and said, “It’s okay. Don’t be scared… I’m here, so wait for me.”

Then, Realm Lord Di Tai stepped out, his figure disappearing in a flash.

Ya Ya wiped her tears and thought, “The Realm Lord is trying hard… I shouldn’t be hopeless and lazy!”

Since the Realm Lord was here, she still had hope!

…

In front of the restaurant, Bu Fang furrowed his brows. His shirt was open at the chest, showing his bare skin.

The temperature in the air was so high that it seemed intent on drying up the entire world.

It felt like there was a scorching flame hanging over people’s heads, burning and roasting their bodies.

The situation of the Immortal Cooking Realm wasn’t optimistic.

Bu Fang sighed.

After returning from the Immortal Tree space, Bu Fang predicted that things would end up like this.

Once the Immortal Tree’s seedlings developed a problem, the Immortal Cooking Realm’s foundation would be affected badly, and now, disaster had struck everywhere.

Bu Fang’s ears were filled with the bestial roars from outside Immortal City.

Although the experts of the Immortal Cooking Realm were in despair, they were still trying their best to resist those waves of rampaging beasts.

If the beasts break through their city wall, it would be their doom.

During these days, Immortal Chef Little Store’s business had also been greatly affected. The number of customers was horribly low.

However, Bu Fang wasn’t surprised. Due to these disasters, the Immortal Cooking Realm seemed to be on the verge of being destroyed, so who would be in the mood to have a fancy meal?

Moreover, in the entire Immortal Cooking Realm, perhaps only Bu Fang’s restaurant was still open.

Swoosh!

All of a sudden, Bu Fang furrowed his brows.

He felt a strange rippling energy, which was like a wave reaching the horizon.

Bu Fang turned around and stared into the distance.

There, a blood-colored light column shot into the sky, piercing the clouds. It made the clouds revolve around it, creating a giant vortex.

“Huh?”

Bu Fang was a little suspicious.

Dark Nether energy wound around the light column, which felt really familiar…

…

Inside the Tong family’s Treasure Pavilion, Tong Wudi gazed at the figure, who sat-cross-legged, with heated eyes.

The figure was submerged in the light column. When the light surged, he released a horrible aura.

This aura made Tong Wudi’s heart race.

After three long days, garbage scattered around the Treasure Pavilion, which used to be energy-filled treasures.

After their energy had been spent, they became trash.

All the energy gathered above the shadow, swirling inside the light formation. At the same time, mysterious energy revolved and scattered from the formation.

During these three days, Tong Wudi had sensed the changes in the Immortal Cooking Realm.

Finally, he concluded that Liu Mobai didn’t trick him.

The disaster of the Immortal Cooking Realm had arrived. His chance had come!

Heroes emerged in chaos. If he wanted to show off, he would only have a chance during the time of crisis.

Since the Immortal Cooking Realm was in a horrible crisis, it was their time to rise again.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, Liu Mobai opened his eyes, and a red glow burst out from them.

Right after that, scarlet jade talismans were thrown out, hitting the formation.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The formation spun faster, too fast for the eye to see clearly.

The void around the formation began to tear, and black space cracks appeared.

Tong Wudi’s frantic face grew more excited!

“Finally done!”

Boom!

Terrifying energy waves expanded.

Tong Wudi’s eyes shrank. He was blown away when the blast went off.

With the Treasure Pavilion as the center, the structures around were swept off, creating a giant hole in the Tong family residence.

Half of the residence was destroyed in a blink of an eye.

However, Tong Wudi was unaffected at this loss. Lifting his head, he gazed at the massive blood-red formation in the air.

Many people in Immortal City were also watching this scene.

Gongshu Baiguang screamed. After gathering many experts, he rushed towards the Tong family’s residence.

The Immortal Cooking Realm is in a great crisis. What does Tong Wudi intend to do now?!

Liu Mobai exhaled and slowly stood up.

The formation above his head revolved, causing horrible energy waves to ripple unceasingly.

The blood column touched the sky, like a bridge connecting two worlds through space.

After a while, the blood-red light column slowly vanished…

Boom!

After a loud explosion, ten experts with different forms appeared above the giant formation. The intimidating auras from their bodies expanded, with thick Nether energy reaching the skies.

Black clouds began to roll and gather in the sky.

The terrifying pressure almost suffocated the people in the first layer.

Liu Mobai let his arms fall along his sides. As he stared at the ten experts hovering above the formation, his eyes turned fervent.

He licked his lips. “Finally… You guys have arrived.”

The formation slowly scattered.

The ten figures moved their eyes. Then, a peal of ear-piercing laughter echoed in the void.

The leader was a man with red eyes. He turned and looked at Liu Mobai.

The terrifying pressure he emanated almost suffocated the latter.

“You are the lucky one that received the inheritance of our Nine Revolution Clan? Well… too weak. No wonder these trash chefs of the Immortal Cooking Realm could defeat you… You simply embarrassed our Nine Revolution Clan.”

“Anyway, since we’re here, we’ll show you what real monsters are capable of.”
