Chapter 1295 - Buddha Jumps Over the Wall

Chapter 1295 Buddha Jumps Over the Wall

His cooking skill had already improved a lot. With the improvement of his cultivation base, his cooking skills were also slowly getting better and had already reached the level of Qilin Chef. It was just that he wasn’t at the Immortal Cooking Realm, so he hadn’t been assessed yet. If he took the test now, he would probably shock many people with his cooking skills. After all, his cooking skills were improving as fast as his cultivation base, which was nothing short of amazing.

Lu Ban’s eyes were cold. His impression of Bu Fang was really bad now. Had he not been intimidated by Bu Fang’s Sword Pot, he would probably have killed this cocky chef here and now.

He spent a lot of money and resources to hire a top Qilin Chef from the Nether Chef Clan, but the dishes cooked by the chef were trashed by this little chef. This made him very angry. It was like slapping him in the face in front of everyone. How could he bear this humiliation?

A stove was placed on the floor with a crash.

“Is this chef from the Immortal Cooking Realm planning to cook here?”

Bu Fang’s indifferent eyes swept the hall before he said lightly, “You said I am not qualified to comment on the food here? I’ll let you know my qualifications now…”

The next moment, he slapped the stove with a palm. One by one, the ingredients jumped up into the air, looking attractive as they glinted dazzlingly under the light. Then, he picked up the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife. The knife spun in his hand before turning into beams of light and began to cut all the ingredients. For a moment, there seemed to be shooting stars falling from the sky.

Even then, blue-and-white porcelain plates flew out one by one and were placed on the stove. The cut ingredients all fell from the air and landed firmly on these plates. Some ingredients still had shining water drops on them.

Bu Fang’s knife technique was indeed very pleasing to the eyes.

As a genius from the Nether Chef Clan, Lu Yang’s eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at Bu Fang. He could sense the confidence in the latter. That was the confidence from the Heart of Cooking Path, which was really extraordinary!

‘The Heart of Cooking Path of this chef from the Immortal Cooking Realm seems so remarkable that it made my heart race a little…’

Behind Bu Fang, the eyes of Zhu Yan and the others became feverish again. His every move made them feel happy. At tonight’s reception, Nether Prison geniuses shrugged them off and made them feel angry. However, because of Bu Fang’s move, their frustration was gone, and they began to feel excited.

Fa Wu and the other experts from the West Little Buddhism Realm also looked at Bu Fang with their hands put together before their chests. Their eyes were full of surprise. His behavior was beyond their expectation. Even in the face of formidable Nether Prison’s top geniuses, he was still proudly modest and not afraid at all.

With a rumble, a fire began to surge in the stove. When the white flame appeared, the temperature of the whole hall suddenly rose. Many people’s eyes slightly narrowed. They could see that it was an immortal flame, and it was probably high on the list of immortal flames.

Many people couldn’t believe that a chef was using an immortal flame to cook.

Bu Fang was methodical in his movements. He ignored the glances of the people around him. This time, he was just showing off part of his cooking skills, and he regarded it as an advertisement for his future branch in Nether Prison.

Accompanied by a flash of light, a porcelain pot appeared in his hands. He put the ingredients into it and stacked them in a mysterious way. The grade of these ingredients was not bad.

Lu Yang’s pupils constricted slightly as he watched. He knew it would be very difficult to cook with so many different ingredients stacked together. ‘This chef is too daring…’

When Bu Fang took out a lid, on which a Buddha lay on his side, Fa Wu and the others froze, and their pupils constricted.

“What Buddha is this?”

The monks from the West Little Buddhism Realm were all stupefied. A Buddha was lying on his side on the lid of the porcelain pot, which seemed strange. The Buddha smiled broadly, and his round belly seemed to reflect the light.

Bu Fang carefully lifted the porcelain pot and placed it in the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. The boiling Spring of Life surrounded the pot and began to cook the ingredients. Then, he released his divine will and wrapped the pot with it.

His series of cooking steps dazzled many people present. Only now did they realize that cooking was also an extensive and profound craft. Initially, they did not care for cooking, but after watching Bu Fang, they all couldn’t help taking deep breaths.

At this moment, a figure in a chef’s robe came slowly from the spiral stair.

Lu Ban gave the figure a cold look and said, “Chef Liu, here you are… This man challenges your cooking. Tell him that you are a top Qilin Chef from the Nether Chef Clan and are not to be messed with.”

The figure in a chef’s robe was a middle-aged man with a rather fat body, and his eyes looked rather cloudy. After hearing Lu Ban’s words, his eyes widened as he fixed them on Bu Fang.

“How dare a young boy pick apart my dishes? I’ve cooked more dishes than the rice he has ever eaten!” the middle-aged man said coldly, his face extremely dark.

Lu Yang put his hands behind his back and looked at the so-called Chef Liu. ‘This man looks familiar… He seems to be a Qilin Chef from the Nether Chef Clan, but I don’t remember who he is… Did I forget a top chef from my own clan?’

The Spring of Life soon began to boil, and steam billowed out of the porcelain pot. After a long time, it seemed that there was light blooming from the pot.

Ba Juetian watched with narrowed eyes, holding his glass and drinking. The wine made his mind seem to turn transparent.

“The dish is about to be ready,” said Lu Yang suddenly.

Even as he said that, there was a sudden thunder in the sky. It was the lightning punishment for the dish. Soon, thunderbolts began to fall. Bu Fang was now perfectly capable of resisting the lightning punishment with his physical body without being injured, so he easily blocked the punishment.

Lu Yang took a deep breath, his eyes filled with disbelief.

‘Eight lightning punishments… I can’t believe this dish actually attracted eight lightning punishments… This shows that its quality is absolutely excellent!’

The face of the middle-aged man, whom Lu Ban called Chef Liu, also changed. It was the first time he had met a chef who could attract eight lightning punishments. It turned out that he was challenged by a chef of such an incredible level!

The chef suddenly felt a little nervous. He tried to turn around and leave but was stopped by a sharp look from Lu Ban. He had no choice but to stay with a bitter look on his face.

With a rumble, the lightning punishments were over. A rich fragrance immediately spread and filled the whole hall.

Lu Ban’s nose twitched, and his face grew serious at the smell. The aroma was very special, as if it had some kind of magic power. He felt his mind was stirred by it.

Bu Fang took the porcelain pot out of the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. The Buddha lying on his side on the lid was already glowing with intense golden light, looking as if a real Buddha had descended. His smiling face was glowing brightly as well.

The monks of the West Little Buddhism Realm had already been shocked beyond their wildest imagination. The dish actually filled them with an impulse of giving up their practice!

“The name of this dish is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall. It is a Heaven-grade dish,” Bu Fang said lightly.

He wiped the water stain from his hands and gently lifted the lid. Accompanied by a unique essence, an intoxicating fragrance suddenly spread out of the pot, caressing every face like a breeze. It went into every nose, intoxicating all the people present.

Gulp.

Everyone swallowed at the same time. Even Lu Ban, who looked gloomy, was no exception.

“This dish is somewhat similar to the stew that was served just now. Where is the chef? He can come and taste it,” Bu Fang said, putting his hands behind him. His tone was very confident. After putting away the White Tiger Heaven Stove and the other tools, he looked up at Chef Liu, who was standing beside Lu Ban in the distance.

The chef’s face had already turned pale. Under Bu Fang’s gaze, he had an impulse to turn around and run away.

Lu Ban’s brows frowned tightly. “Chef Liu… What’s the matter?” His voice was fierce.

Chef Liu could taste the bitterness at the back of his throat. With Lu Ban watching, he couldn’t turn and run away. He forced himself to walk toward Bu Fang. The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was placed on the dining table. Beams of light shot out of the porcelain pot, dazzling to behold.

The chef scooped out a glittering piece of spirit beast meat from the golden soup, then put it into his mouth and began to chew. A bright light seemed to burst out from between his lips.

‘This feeling…’

He suddenly felt an urge to kneel. Although he was a Qilin Chef, he was barely reaching the standard of a Qilin Chef. His Heart of Cooking Path was in no way comparable to Bu Fang’s. With just the Buddha Jumps Over The Wall, Bu Fang had made him feel despair.

Chef Liu took several steps back, his eyes filled with shock. “This… This…”

He opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.

In the distance, Lu Ban’s face had become very dark, while Lu Yu and the others were extremely embarrassed. The look on Chef Liu’s face had told them that Bu Fang’s dish had crushed everything.

Lu Ban felt a burning pain in his face. It was a feeling of being slapped in the face. Only a moment ago, he said Bu Fang was not qualified, and now, Bu Fang’s dish left the chef, who he had spent a lot of money to hire, speechless.

It was a nasty feeling.

His eyes narrowed. The next moment, the puppet he carried on his back fell to the ground with a crash.

With a cold look in his eyes, he said, “Chef Liu… Didn’t you say you are a top Qilin Chef? Didn’t you say that your cooking skills are the strongest, second only to the Divine Chef of the Nether Chef Clan? Have you been lying to me all the time?”

Chef Liu’s pupils constricted. All of a sudden, an aura exploded out of him, and then he turned and rushed out of the restaurant.

“Chef Liu… You’re fired,” Lu Ban said coldly.

Even as his voice rang out, a black beam of light shot out from his puppet into the distance. It was a bolt. The next moment, a terrible cry echoed out in the distance as the bolt went into the fake chef’s body and exploded with a rumble.

With his puppet, Lu Ban came to Bu Fang. He picked up a spoon, scooped a piece of meat into his mouth, and then drank a mouthful of soup. His eyes flickered for a moment, then he let out a deep breath.

“It’s delicious,” he said.

Lu Yu and the others who followed him were all puzzled.

“Come and be my restaurant’s chef… I’ll pay you five thousand Nether crystals a month,” Lu Ban said.

The crowd broke out into an uproar. They couldn’t believe Lu Ban was recruiting Bu Fang. Didn’t they fight each other just now? The magnanimity of the three Kings was indeed unusual!

“I’m not interested.”

However, Lu Ban’s recruitment was mercilessly rejected by Bu Fang.

Bu Fang was a man who wanted to open his own restaurant. How could he work for someone else as a chef? It didn’t suit his style of doing things. Therefore, he looked at Lu Ban and asked seriously, “Are you sure you don’t want to think about it? I can buy your puppet. I’m not short of… money.”

Lu Ban didn’t answer. His eyes became colder and colder with monstrous killing intent surging in them.

The banquet ended in discord. Lu Ban left, and so were all the Nether Prison geniuses. Ba Juetian swaggered away with the wine jar in his hand. Before leaving, he gave Bu Fang a meaningful look.

Bu Fang glanced around, then sat down and finished the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall before leaving the restaurant with Zhu Yan and the others.

…

The transport array in the transport pavilion flickered with bright light. The next moment, a figure wrapped in black mist slowly emerged, his dark golden eyes full of malice and killing intent.

“I finally arrived at Nether Prison… Now, I need to find the little chef with the Senseless Lotus…” A hoarse voice rang out, accompanied by a cold laugh.

…

The next day, the finals of the Netherworld’s Tournament of the Great Path officially started in the Nether Puppet Arena of Sacred Puppet City.
