Gourmet of Another World

Everyone was stunned.

They looked at the scene unfolding in front of them with their mouths gaping in amazement.

The giant was more than three meters, with a thick head of hair and muscles as thick as that of a dragon. His body seemed full of explosive energy.

The giant’s shirt was ripped, revealing a wide hole in his chest. The hole went through his body, and strands of rainbow-colored blood vessels hung from it like chains.

The chains stemming from the Taotie’s Heart earlier were actually these blood vessels. Now, they were broken, and each one hung limply as it spewed out copious amounts of energy.

Boom!

The giant roared and struggled out of the crack in the Nine Steps of Culinary Arts, managing to free half of his entire frame out of the ground.

His face was emaciated, looking as if it was just skin covering bones. His skin also stuck tightly to his muscles, revealing each strand of blood vessel on them. He looked horrifying. Overall, his entire figure emanated a sinister air.

This was a giant who gave off a terrifying and baleful aura.

The air surged in the sky, and loose rocks and rubble flew dangerously about, carried by the wind.

The giant’s eyes were filled with hostility. He roared furiously before staring at Bu Fang.

Bu Fang held his chest with one hand, while the other held the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. The beating Taotie’s Heart was stored within it, and judging from the situation, the Taotie’s Heart originally belonged to this giant.

However, the rightful owner of the Taotie’s Heart was the Taotie itself. Why would it appear in the chest of this giant?

After Bu Fang inspected the giant’s features carefully, he immediately recognized this person. The giant had some semblance to the light shadow that appeared earlier…

Evidently, this giant was the light shadow who attempted to fuse the Taotie’s Heart to Bu Fang. This shadow was also someone who planned to set Bu Fang up.

If not for the fact that Bu Fang was full of secrets and miracles, he would likely have been completely sucked dry by now.

Thinking up to this point, Bu Fang did not harbor any scrap of pity for this giant. If this giant did not attempt to set him up, he would not have plucked out the Taotie’s Heart from him

The giant’s identity was extraordinary, so many people had already made guesses as to who it could be. When they realized who it was, their eyes shone as they took a big breath of cold air.

Chu Changsheng stood rooted to the ground. Looking at the giant, his gaze trembled involuntarily.

This giant… He was the bodyguard of the Valley of Gluttony’s first Valley Master!

Many people recognized this giant. When the first Valley Master of the Valley of Gluttony slayed the Black Taotie, sealed the White Taotie, established the Valley of Gluttony, and suppressed the various Holy Lands of the Hidden Dragon Royal Court, this giant acted as his right-hand man!

He was the absolute expert of that generation.

How could he have degenerated to this extent in all these years?

And… He actually coveted the Taotie’s Heart!

He wanted to replace his own heart with the Taotie’s Heart!

The Taotie’s Heart was the inheritance of the Valley of Gluttony. It was controlled by each incumbent Valley Master of that generation. It was able to increase the wielder’s cultivation level, heal injuries, as well as increase his culinary talents.

It could be said that the Taotie’s Heart was the best inheritance there was.

However, somewhere through the years, the inheritance of the Valley of Gluttony was broken, and it disappeared.

From then on, the Valley of Gluttony fell into a period of decline. No one could have expected that all of that was caused by one of the pioneers of the Valley of Gluttony.

Chu Changsheng could guess that if not for the power of the Taotie’s Heart, the giant would have already been withered to dust after so long.

However, this could still not absolve the sin of how this giant coveted the Taotie’s Heart. He even caused the decline of the Valley of Gluttony!

At the moment, the eyes of the giant were cold as it locked onto the floating Bu Fang. He could feel the faint aura of the Taotie’s Heart.

“Hand… me… the… Taotie’s Heart!” The giant howled with an open mouth.

The sound was thunderous, and the entire space began shaking tremulously.

Bu Fang glanced coldly at the giant. If not for this giant setting him up, why would he act to snatch the Taotie’s Heart?

The corners of Bu Fang’s lips tugged up into a cold smirk. He raised his hand and pointed at the giant. With a flip of his hand, he kept the Taotie’s Heart.

The aura of the Taotie’s Heart immediately disappeared.

The giant began to rampage in fury. He stretched his neck out and let out an agonized wail full of resentment!

In the next instant, the giant began to emit a terrifying aura.

Boom!

The giant raised his hands above Bu Fang, intending to smash him to a pulp with one palm strike.

Without the Taotie’s Heart, the giant’s body would begin to decay rapidly. Without the life force nourishment from the Taotie’s Heart, he would soon fall due to life force depletion.

He did not want to die!

He possessed the Taotie’s Heart for such a long time for the sole purpose of survival, but now, he was forced to wake up from his slumber.

“Die!” The giant howled. In this howl, an inexplicable sorrow could be detected.

This sorrow was infectious. After hearing the howl, many people could not help but begin to feel sad.

This giant could casually emit an aura that could affect people’s state of mind! It was terrifying!

Bu Fang’s face was pale, and his stance was unsteady. Faced with the giant’s huge palm, his body seemed immovable and out of control.

Even so, he was not afraid. He had the invincibility of the Vermillion Robe, which could block one strike.

However, after that block, how would he face the second strike?

Bu Fang began to fret after thinking about this.

Boom!

Suddenly, the palm fell at a breakneck speed. The entire space felt as if it was being compressed and congealed.

An enormous pressure, which could even crush rocks into powder, descended!

At that moment, when Bu Fang’s brows were furrowed with worry, a figure appeared beside him. A small hand grabbed his shoulder, and he disappeared with a whoosh.

In the next moment, he appeared beside Xiao Ya.

Xiao Ya was hugging Bu Fang’s thigh with her eyes squinted and her head leaning on his thigh. She looked to be enjoying every moment of it.

Bu Fang gave her a pat on the head. He knew who had saved him—it was Flowery, who was always with Xiao Ya.

As expected, beside Bu Fang, Flowery’s figure was floating in the air. An expression of rage could be seen in her Tri-Flower Snake Eyes.

Flowery was adorable. She had a little braid and a golden skirt revealing her plump thighs. Her face was round with an abundance of baby fats, and on the top of her head, two short golden horns protruded out.

Bu Fang was completely unable to picture this adorable little girl as the vicious Seven-colored Sky Devouring Python.

However, at this moment, Bu Fang felt that this was not what he should be concerned with.

What he should be worried about was that giant who was rampaging in front of him after losing the Taotie’s Heart. The power of that giant was horrifying. He could reduce his surroundings to ruins with just a flail of his arms.

Right now, he was wailing, and the sorrow from that wail was causing many to shed tears.

Of course, real experts with powerful mental strength were naturally unaffected by the giant’s aura.

Accompanying his wail, many people were crying while walking toward the giant. They were influenced deeply by him and were being drawn inexorably toward him…

It seemed as though they had seen something truly heartwrenching.

When those people walked to a certain distance from the giant, the giant suddenly flicked his head full of green hair, revealing a murderous glint in his eyes.

He raised his hand and smashed downward with a palm strike to catch several people. After getting hold of them, he quickly stuffed them to fill the hole in his chest.

These experts were then jolted awake after being stuffed in the giant’s chest. In his chest, the limp rainbow-colored blood vessels came to life, and they wrapped immediately around these figures. After that, a terrible suction power appeared, and in an instant, only dry husks were left of these experts.

Everyone who was influenced came to their senses immediately, and they all shouted in surprise. When they saw the scene this time, it almost made them piss their pants.

Those experts who had been sucked dry had neither blood, vitality, nor life force left. They were instantly reduced to ugly human husks.

Boom!

The giant seemed to have gotten a treat from that and began shifting his target to the other escaping experts.

In the next moment, palm after palm rose and descended on these experts. After catching many people, he stuffed all of them into his chest, as though to fill up the hole in it.

Chu Changsheng broke out into a cold sweat.

How could a guardian god of the Valley of Gluttony turn out to be such a fearful existence? Not only did it cause the decline of the Valley of Gluttony, but it was also as savage as a beast!

Many experts died. Faced with this giant and the terrifying pressure it emitted, they could not flee far before being caught and reduced to a dried human husk.

After being sucked dry, they were released by the rainbow chains in his chest, causing them to fall to the ground and be broken into pieces.

Far away from this scene, Mo Liuji and the rest involuntarily sucked in a deep breath of cold air.

At the peak of his power, this giant was an existence that could rival that of a patriarch who had ignited his divine flame. Now, he was reduced to an almost dried corpse who resorted to sucking the essence of experts!

He was also the culprit who caused the fall of the Valley of Gluttony!

Mo Liuji’s eyes flashed. The Heavenly Secret Holy Land claimed to be omniscient, but that was only if Granny Mo and the patriarch calculated it using the Heavenly Star Chart.

Ordinary disciples like Mo Liuji were not privy to such secrets. Their star charts were completely incapable of predicting this. Even if they could, the energy that was wasted would not be worth it.

Hence, Mo Liuji was extremely curious about the actual story behind this scene.

As for Amethyst Elder, he completely ignored the giant. His eyes were locked fixedly on Nether King Er Ha, who was holding the brick-like object that he used to smash his head to its current swollen state!

He was filled to the brim with a killing intent that was almost solid, directing it at Nether King Er Ha!

On the other hand, Great White and Bi Liantian’s eyes shone.

Great White was only concerned about the Shrimp Ancestor, who had transformed into Whitey’s mount.

At the Shrimp Ancestor’s peak, it could rival the power of the Black Dragon King. It was a tyrant who ruled over a region of the endless sea, but now, it was reduced to such a pathetic state.

He felt like he should do something.

If the Shrimp Ancestor obtained the heart and remembered his help, it would be his incredible good fortune.

Hence, Great White was no longer in a hurry to snatch the Taotie’s Heart!

He was similar to Bi Liantian. Both of them managed to congeal their divine altar, but they were unable to ignite the divine flame, resulting in them being in the half-step Divine Spirit Realm.

The purpose of this visit was to obtain the Taotie’s Heart, which could help them ignite their divine flame to allow them to step into the true Divine Spirit Realm.

However, there were simply too many unexpected problems that arose this time.

Great White had found the Shrimp Ancestor. With the Shrimp Ancestor, why would he still need the Taotie’s Heart?

Because of this, Great White heaved his meat blade and moved to Whitey’s side with passion burning in his eyes. Looking at the Shrimp Ancestor, he gave a sinister smile, which revealed his saw-like teeth.

Whitey’s eyes flashed. In the next moment, he lashed out with his stick.

Such an ugly smile. He had to be someone with bad intentions.

Bi Liantian swayed on her feet, her eyes bright with curiosity. The appearance of the giant was completely unexpected…

Back then, she was injured by the Valley Master of the Valley of Gluttony. However, the Valley Master had disappeared for a long time. She had originally arrived to settle some matters, but instead, she was caught up in the birth of the Taotie’s Heart.

By obtaining the Taotie’s Heart, she would then be able to ignite her divine flame. Naturally, she was unable to resist a temptation like this.

Hence, she would not give up the Taotie’s Heart!

With a squint of her eyes, multiple lotus flowers appeared around her body. The petals swirled around in the air, lifting up her hair.

There was a beauty hidden within this surge of killing intent.

Her gaze was now locked onto Bu Fang since the Taotie’s Heart was on him.

Suddenly, her eyes constricted.

After the giant had replenished sufficient energy, he turned around viciously. His giant palm swept past again and aimed at Bu Fang’s position.

He desired to catch Bu Fang like how he caught those experts whom he sucked dry.

A powerful suppressive wind blew towards Bu Fang, causing his hair to whip around him madly.

Flowery’s small hand grabbed Bu Fang’s shoulder, and the Tri-Flower Snake Eyes started spinning around. A moment later, true energy was emitted from her body.

However, just before she transformed into the Seven-colored Sky Devouring Python, Bu Fang raised his hand to pat her head.

“Little girl, stay here obediently. Let that lazy dog do all the fighting and killing.”

Bu Fang rubbed Flowery’s head, causing her to freeze on the spot. The Tri-Flower Snake Eyes grounded to a stop.

When Bu Fang finished speaking, the illusory void in front of him began trembling violently. In the next moment, it ripped open to form a passage.

An obsidian-colored Netherworld Ship gradually appeared from the crack.
