Chapter 1277 The Restless Forbidden Lands of Earth Prison

‘This old fellow seems to have been thrown out of the blood mist. Is there anyone in Earth Prison who can throw him flying away?!’

“Cough, cough… I was kicked out by my old neighbor.” The Yellow Spring Great Sage felt embarrassed. As a supreme existence, he was actually slapped, and the palm print was still on his face. However, what could he say? His ten-thousand-year-old neighbor just didn’t want to be friends with him.

“By the way, mangy dog, the little fellow you used to protect is in the blood mist now. With my Qi observation technique, I can see that his forehead is black, which means he’s likely to be plagued by misfortune. It’s not a good sign,” the Yellow Spring Great Sage said seriously, wiping the blood from his nostrils.

Lord Dog glanced at the Yellow Spring Great Sage and rolled his eyes. He knew that the old fellow was urging him to go into the blood mist. However, he did want to go in as Bu Fang was in a very dangerous situation. Since the mysterious existence could throw the Yellow Spring Great Sage away with a slap, it showed that he or she was absolutely out of the ordinary.

“Ah, well… Bu Fang boy is really making people worry.” Lord Dog sighed, and his fat wobbled. After that, he walked slowly with elegant cat-like steps and soon disappeared into the hazy blood mist.

The Yellow Spring Great Sage watched as Lord Dog disappeared. He rubbed his face where the palm slapped him, breathed a soft sigh, and then followed. He wanted to meet his old neighbor again.

…

Bu Fang, of course, had no idea that it was the Yellow Spring Great Sage who had just been slapped. Still, he could feel the horror of the presence in the bronze palace. Just the look in those eyes already made his whole body cold.

‘System… Who’s the mysterious master of the bronze palace? Can I know who he is? ‘ Bu Fang looked at the palace and the eyes with a straight face, but in his mind, he kept asking the System.

However, the System didn’t answer him as if it had completely fallen silent. The situation shocked Bu Fang.

‘How’s this possible? Why do I feel like even the System is hiding from the master of this bronze palace? What happened? Who is the master of this bronze palace?!”

“You are too weak now… But sooner or later, you will be like me…” The voice rang out of the eyes again, which seemed to be full of chaos and could absorb one’s soul with just a glance.

Then, the gates of the bronze palace opened wider, and black energy began to seep out through them. It was not Nether energy but seemed to be a kind of very evil energy. This energy made Bu Fang’s heart race.

‘It feels like a legendary disaster…’

All of a sudden, the Senseless Lotus became boiling hot. It broke free from Bu Fang’s grip and hovered between him and the bronze palace, exuding vast energy and dazzling light. His pupils constricted as he stared at the lotus. The next moment, in his incredulous eyes, a hand reached out of the bronze palace.

It was a near-perfect hand, beautifully proportioned and flawless. Its skin was as white as jade, without any impurities or even pores. Each of its fingers was very slender, like a work of art meticulously created by heaven. All in all, it was perfect enough to make people feel ashamed.

The hand reached out and held the Senseless Lotus.

Suddenly, the nine golden lotus seeds in the Senseless Lotus flew out and fell into the palm of the perfect hand. Then, the hand slowly withdrew into the bronze palace.

“You can have the Senseless Lotus… Make it into a dish. It will shield you from a calamity,” said the voice in the bronze palace.

Bu Fang was in a trance. The Senseless lotus drifted toward him, then disappeared in front of his eyes. His pupils suddenly constricted because he found that the lotus appeared in the Heaven and Earth Farmland. It flew on and on until it landed on the Myriad Treasures Immortal Tree. Soon, the Senseless Lotus seemed to have grown roots and perfectly integrated with the immortal tree, as if the tree were meant to have the lotus.

‘What’s going on here?’

With a rumble, great changes took place in the Heaven and Earth Farmland.

Niu Hansan, wearing crystal glasses, hurried out of the wooden hut just in time to see the incredible scene. At this moment, the spirit energy of heaven and earth in the whole farmland suddenly increased, and in just a flash, the whole area expanded again!

With Foxy in her arms, Nethery watched the scene with a blank face and seemed to feel a little amazed.

Even then, there were many strange phenomena in the Heaven and Earth Farmland—spirit herbs were maturing, flowers were blooming, and seedlings were growing. The whole farmland seemed to have reached a higher level.

“Oh my… What incredible thing did Owner Bu do again this time?!” Niu Hansan took off his glasses, and his eyes went wide. He felt that the Will of the Great Path in the farmland was at least twice as strong as before!

Bu Fang withdrew his mind from the Heaven and Earth Farmland and fixed his eyes on the existence in the bronze palace. Suddenly, he turned to look aside. There, two figures emerged, one was Lord Dog walking with his cat-like steps, and the other was the Yellow Spring Great Sage, who was thrown out of here with a slap just now.

The mysterious existence in the bronze palace also saw the two of them, but it only glanced at them, then turned its eyes back to Bu Fang again.

“I’m leaving… I hope you will surprise me the next time we meet,” said the voice.

Finally, the bronze gates flung open completely, and a horrible wave of energy came sweeping out of the palace. Before Lord Dog and the Yellow Spring Great Sage could get close, their expressions already changed drastically.

With a bark, Lord Dog came at full speed. His dog paw grew bigger and wrapped Bu Fang up, then he sped off, leaving the blood mist in an instant.

“This kind of power… I have an incredible neighbor!” the Yellow Spring Great Sage muttered.

As a bright light bloomed, a figure emerged from the bronze gates and slowly disappeared into the depths of the void. The next moment, fine cracks began to appear across the surface of the bronze palace. Eventually, the palace lost its luster and became dull, covered in a layer of dust.

RUMBLE!

The Yellow Spring River began to flow and surge again, and the lightning arcs that obscured the light screen also disappeared. Once again, everyone could see what was going on in the Yellow Spring River. Their eyes were wide open, but they found nothing on the light screen except for an old, dilapidated bronze palace floating in the water.

Bu Fang looked at the dilapidated bronze palace. At this moment, it looked exactly the same as the bronze palace on the Hidden Dragon Continent. It had lost all its terrible pressure. Perhaps, the bronze palace in the Hidden Dragon Continent had once exuded terrible pressure as well, and in it, a supreme existence was hidden. However, in the long river of time, someone took the key, opened the door, and let the supreme existence go.

The blood mist slowly dispersed, and the Yellow Spring River returned to its original appearance.

Lord Dog landed on the bank of the Yellow Spring River with Bu Fang.

“You really are a lucky boy. The fluctuation just now frightened even me… Who is that fellow?” Lord Dog asked.

Bu Fang shook his head. He didn’t know who the mysterious existence was, but he believed that they would meet again in the future. At that time, he must see the face of that mysterious fellow. He had a feeling that this existence was someone he must meet on his path to becoming the God of Cooking. He couldn’t avoid it.

RUMBLE!

A rumbling sound could be heard rolling across the sky in Earth Prison, causing Lord Dog and the Yellow Spring Great Sage to look up and narrow their eyes.

“I knew it… This cannot be hidden from them. Those old fellows in Nether Prison also sensed it…” said Lord Dog.

The Yellow Spring Great Sage nodded and said, “I can’t believe Nether Prison set the venue of this tournament in the area under my jurisdiction… Are they trying to stir up trouble? Those old fellows are not interested in the Nine-leaf Yellow Spring Grass I planted, are they?” As he spoke, his face twisted in anger.

Upon hearing the Nine-leaf Yellow Spring Grass, Bu Fang immediately glanced at the Yellow Spring Great Sage.

“Bu Fang boy, you go on with the competition. I’ve got things to do…” Lord Dog said, looking at Bu Fang.

Bu Fang nodded.

“Be careful. Nether Prison is not a good thing. This tournament is not as simple as it looks,” Lord Dog added seriously.

Bu Fang nodded again.

After that, Lord Dog tore the void and left, disappearing again.

The Yellow Spring Great Sage gave Bu Fang a look. When he found that the young man was staring at the Nine-leaf Yellow Spring Grass in his hand, his brows suddenly arched.

“Don’t look at it, little fellow, or I won’t mind feeding you to my Torch Dragon,” the Yellow Spring Great Sage threatened Bu Fang and tightened his grip on the grass. After that, he turned into a beam of light and sped away in an instant.

Bu Fang felt a little regret as he watched the Yellow Spring Great Sage leave. If he could get the Nine-leaf Yellow Spring Grass, he would be able to make the best wine. It seemed that he had to find a way to get it.

…

Yellow Spring Town was a desolate town with few people living in it. Outside the town, there was a huge open field. At the moment, Fa Wu and Fa Shang stood there quietly. The Earth Prison team had only two contestants left, and they were also standing in the open field with unsightly faces. All the other contestants were dead. It was indeed a brutal semifinal.

Fa Wu turned his head and looked into the distance, as if he was waiting for someone. A gust of wind blew over and rolled up a cloud of sand. Soon, a figure slowly came out of the sand, his lean figure looked a little skinny in the gusting wind.

“It’s Owner Bu!”

Fa Wu’s eyes lit up, and Fa Shang was pleasantly surprised, while the Earth Prison experts took deep breaths.

Everyone who saw Bu Fang appear on the light screen exclaimed. They didn’t expect that he could walk out of the Yellow Spring River alive. The bronze palace had given them all an extremely oppressive feeling, and the existence in it seemed it could kill them with just a glance. They thought that Bu Fang had died after facing such a terrible existence.

However, he came out alive. What happened in the blood mist? Everyone was very curious.

When Bu Fang arrived, he glanced at Fa Wu and the two surviving contestants of the Earth Prison team and asked doubtfully, “Why don’t you go in?”

“I’m waiting for you…” Fa Wu laughed and gave Bu Fang a complicated look. He thought Bu Fang was just an ordinary Immortal Cooking Realm chef, but it surprised him to know that Bu Fang could not only cook super delicious food but also be so mysterious.

‘He could even pick the Senseless Lotus… Wait, the Senseless Lotus?’

Fa Wu’s eyes suddenly widened, and his breathing became rapid.

‘The Senseless Lotus is a divine item, and yet it is now in the hands of this little chef?! A common man’s only crime is to carry a jade… Owner Bu is likely to have a great deal of trouble…’

Even as they were chatting, beams of light suddenly flashed in front of the town. The next moment, several figures emerged. Jin Jiao, Yin Jiao, and the other Prison Overlords walked out of the town and looked at Bu Fang with complicated expressions.

“First of all, I congratulate you on your arrival in Yellow Spring Town. Now, I will begin to examine your jade plates…”

…

On the top of the God Vanishing Mountain…

Ice Saint, dressed in a white robe, was sitting on a big stone and eating ice cream. Suddenly, her eyes narrowed as if looking through the void.

“The Senseless Lotus is picked… Did the fellow get out of the trap? Well… after so many years, the Senseless Lotus has no more meaning for me… I won’t fight with them.”

After thinking for a while, Ice Saint continued to eat her ice cream.

…

The gates of the Cave of the Fallen Gods opened, and a skeleton in golden armor slowly emerged from it.

“The Senseless Lotus has come into the world… Such a divine artifact must be brought back here!”

…

In the forbidden land of Earth Prison, the Black Temple…

A figure wrapped in black robes slowly walked out of the majestic black temple. “Bring the Senseless Lotus back… It is our hope to return to the world.” A hoarse voice rang out from the black temple.

For a moment, the whole Earth Prison was restless.
