1206 The Divine Chef's Inheritance, The Stairway of Culinary Arts!

"So, you finally came out of your turtle hole..." A voice filled with monstrous killing intent echoed through the air.

Far off, a Judge in a blood-colored robe fixed his cold eyes at Bu Fang.

"When I sensed a series of spatial fluctuations yesterday, I suspected that you might have hidden into a space created with some tricks... However, you have no partner, so it is very likely to be your own divine tool. This kind of divine tool has a unique characteristic, and that is, you will come out from the exact spot where you've entered..." the Judge said in a faint voice. "That's why I decided to wait here because I know you will show up sooner or later..."

When he had finished speaking, the ground under his feet exploded, and his body turned into a blood-colored shadow as he flew toward Bu Fang at top speed. He was boiling with terrible killing intent, and he couldn't wait to kill Bu Fang.

The powerful pressure exuding from the Judge hit Bu Fang in the face and made his Vermilion Chef Robe flap noisily. However, he was very calm, and he just watched with a straight face. The next moment, a fierce and frightening storm broke out in his spirit sea.

Rumble!

After his divine perception upgraded to divine will, Bu Fang found that it was a little difficult to use. He realized that he needed more practice, but without question, it was extremely strong.

With him in the center, golden ripples spread and swept out in all directions.

Suddenly, the Judge's eyes shrank as Bu Fang's divine will smashed him hard in the spirit sea like a great hammer, which left him momentarily dazed. The daze didn't last for even half a breath, but it was a daze nonetheless. Taking this opportunity, Bu Fang soared into the sky, stepped onto Shrimpy's back, and sped into the distance. In just a flash, he had turned into a golden stream of light and disappeared into the horizon.

The Judge's body shook and burst into a blood-colored light, while his eyes shone with a crimson gleam. The next instant, the daze disappeared. 

'A mental attack technique?!' He thought he had finally figured out why Blood Three was killed by Bu Fang, who was merely a Nine-star True Immortal. 'I understand now... It turns out that this boy used a mental attack technique to stun Blood Three before killing him!'

"What a despicable fellow! You can't run away from me!"

Boom! 

The whole valley seemed to explode as he pushed his feet into the ground and catapulted himself in Bu Fang's direction like a missile.

The Little Saint mustered all his speed and streaked across the sky like a meteor, chasing in a straight line behind Bu Fang. However, Shrimpy was fast as well. Its body swayed as it carried Bu Fang across the sky in a flash. The distance between them didn't shorten or lengthen.

With a roar, a blood-colored stream of light shot toward Bu Fang's direction as if it wanted to kill him here and now! 

Bu Fang, standing on Shrimpy's back with his hands clasped behind his back, seemed to sense the blood-colored strike in the distance. His face grew slightly serious as he said, "Shrimpy, let's go down there."

As if it understood what Bu Fang said, Shrimpy squeaked. The next moment, it fell straight down toward the ground like a missile.

The Judge's eyes shrank, and he sneered. "A trifling trick!" His robe flapped noisily as he followed them, turning toward the ground as well.

A blood-colored ray and a golden one began a chasing game in the void.

The ground was full of huge, jagged, and strange-looking stone pillars, and the two rays shuttled between them.

Bu Fang spread out his divine will to learn about the landscape in advance. He brought Shrimpy among the stones at high speed, thinking he could always avoid the jugged stone pillars. Gradually, he managed to lengthen the distance between him and the Judge.

At such high speed, even the Judge could not guarantee to quickly avoid the stones. In the end, the furious Judge decided not to avoid them, smashing through everything instead as he flew straight in Bu Fang's direction. However, that had reduced his speed.

As time went by, Bu Fang was getting closer and closer to the land of inheritance! 

...

The opening of the Divine Chef's inheritance naturally attracted a lot of attention. The Nether Prison experts, Realm Lord Di Tai, and the others all showed up and headed for it. At the same time, the law enforcement team and the Judges also moved, hunting down the remaining Nether Prison geniuses.

Around the pillar of light, figures flew at high speed toward its center, and one of them was Bu Fang, riding on Shrimpy's back. His hair waved messily in the wind, and the look on his face remained unchanged.

Far off, the golden pillar of light grew larger and larger, looking like an enormous spear of light that thrust into the sky. Bu Fang's eyes gleamed when he saw energy within it and sensed a strong Heart of Cooking Path, which belonged to the Divine Chef. It was extremely formidable, so much so that the Heart of Cooking Path inside Bu Fang didn't dare to move at all.

The pressure that a Divine Chef could bring was simply shocking. Not only Bu Fang, but all the Qilin Chefs heading for the land of inheritance could sense it, and that made their expressions change. They were terrified, but at the same time, their hearts were filled with excitement.

If they could obtain the Divine Chef's legacy, they, too, could unleash this kind of aura in the near future and condense a Heart of Cooking Path that was as shocking as this!

Ying Ya and Liu Ya sped through the air at a low altitude. They had the same idea as Bu Fang, and that was shaking off the pursuers behind them with the jagged stone pillars on the ground.

Realm Lord Di Tai and City Lord Meng Qi were very lucky. They had not been pursued by any law enforcers, but they still kept their guard up. Their target was the pillar of light, the land of inheritance.

Suddenly, an oppressive aura exploded above their heads, accompanied by sonic booms. That took both of them aback. They looked up and saw a beam of golden light flew low over them.

"En? It's that boy, Bu Fang, again..." Realm Lord Di Tai sucked in a cold breath. He had learned about what the boy did: Bu Fang had killed a Judge, who was a Two-revolution Little Saint.

Boom! 

A moment later, another violent aura exploded as a blood-colored figure flew over them, chasing behind the first one. The oppressive aura exuding from this one terrified even the realm lord and Meng Qi.

'He's one of the Judges... Did Bu Fang boy provoke another Judge?!'

A rumbling sound could be heard as the blood-colored figure kept smashing through jagged stone pillars, while the golden ray moved agilely between them.

Ying Ya and Liu Ya sped across the air, heading for the light pillar. Suddenly, they felt a gust of chilly wind blow across them, which filled their hearts with an oppressive feeling.

"It's that young man again!" Liu Ya lowered his voice and told Ying Ya.

With a swoosh, the golden ray approached them at high speed.

"Stop them for me!" the Judge roared.

Immediately, the ground exploded, and a blood-colored figure shot into the air. Another Judge tried to intercept Bu Fang and Shrimpy, bellowing, "Stop it right there!" 

He raised a hand, and in the next instant, the shadow of a blood-colored sickle appeared. It was so large that it seemed to blot out the sky as it slashed down at Bu Fang.

With a calm look on his face, Bu Fang gathered his divine will and unleashed it.

Rumble! 

The sickle that came slashing down from the air paused for a brief moment, or to be precise, half a breath. The Judge who made the attack was stunned. The span of half a breath was long when they were flying at such high speed.

Sure enough, the golden ray sped past and avoided the Judge's sickle. After that, only the attack that seemed capable of hacking the world apart came crashing down, cutting a massive trench in the ground.

"Damn it! Don't let him escape!"

The two Judges exploded with speed as they chased even harder. Now, the golden ray was followed by two blood-colored rays, and their speed was getting faster and faster, almost catching up with the golden ray.

Bu Fang couldn't help but furrow his eyebrows. Below him, Shrimpy squeaked, as if it felt itself being provoked. Right after that, it increased its speed further. Their figures tore through the sky, turning into a golden streak and smashing into the golden pillar of light in the next instant.

Boom! 

An oppressive rumble rang out, and the two blood-colored figures came to an abrupt stop. Their muscles were twitching as they floated in front of the golden pillar of light with narrowed eyes.

"Should we continue chasing him?" asked one of the Judges as they exchange a glance, frowning.

"He had killed Old Third. We can't let him go just like this..."

After a brief conversation, both Judges plunged into the light pillar without hesitation. 

BOOM! BOOM!

On the ground, explosions kept ringing out. Liu Ya stopped before the golden light pillar with a large knife in his hand. "Brother, you go in. I'll hold off these fellows..." he said expressionlessly. "If I die, avenge me."

He, like Bu Fang, always kept a straight face. Even though he was talking about his own death, he still remained so calm.

"If you die, I'll slaughter the whole Abyss to pay tribute to you," said Ying Ya. After saying that, he gave his brother a deep look, then turned and stepped into the golden light pillar without looking back.

Realm Lord Di Tai and City Lord Meng Qi were very lucky. No one paid them any attention until they reached the light pillar, so they, too, walked into it.

Meanwhile, a Nether Chef genius, who had chatted with Ying Ya earlier, stepped into the light pillar as well after killing a law enforcer, his body covered in blood.

Liu Ya roared. Shocking Nether energy exploded out around him as he swept out his knife, hacking the law enforcers coming at him into pieces. Soon, a few Little Saints joined the fight, all attacking him at the same time and giving him a tremendous amount of pressure. However, his ruthlessness in fighting also shocked the law enforcers.

...

Outside the Abyss, the sound of rumbling rang incessantly. Different Wills of the Great Path rolled in the void and kept crashing into one another. The ground had cracked open, and even the sky seemed to fall apart.

The next moment, a figure fell rapidly from the sky, and blood filled with tiny golden specks spilled across the air. The sky seemed to echo with a wailing sound.

The rocking Wills of the Great Path soon disappeared.

The Great Judge, clad in a blood-colored robe, stepped out of the void with a head in his hand.

"Thank you for the help, City Lord... I'll take care of the rest," said the Great Judge as he cupped his fist at the void.

"This is a matter of great importance, so proceed with caution. There is an emergency on my side. After I solve it, I'll accompany you to attack the Nether Prison," a voice boomed through the void.

The next moment, the Great Judge seemed to hear a dog's bark, accompanied by the City Lord's furious roar. His expression became slightly odd, but he quickly regained his composure. Looking at the bloody Great Saint's head in his hand, his mouth turned into a gruesome smile as he said, "It's time for the Abyss to counterattack... Next, we'll wait for the result at the bottom of the Abyss... It's time for the Abyssal Demons to wake up after tens of thousands of years of silence!" 

...

The Divine Chef's inheritance was in the golden light pillar.

Shrimpy had turned into a mass of golden light and perched on Bu Fang's shoulder, while Bu Fang clasped his hands behind his back as his Vermilion Chef Robe flapped noisily.

This was a rather vast world, the center of which was a towering white jade stairway. The steps led up to a huge heart with seven holes, which was gold in color and kept pounding and exuding enormous pressure. Beneath the stairway were many skeletons, all of them kneeling down. 

Buzz… 

Suddenly, many figures emerged in different places of this world, including the two Judges in blood-colored robes, Ying Ya with a gloomy face, the Nether Prison genius who was covered in blood, and Realm Lord Di Tai and City Lord Meng Qi, who looked confused.

As soon as the Nether Chef genius saw the towering white jade stairway and the golden seven-holed heart, he burst into crazy laughter. "The Stairway of Culinary Arts! This is indeed the Divine Chef's land of inheritance! Haha! The Divine Chef's inheritance will be mine!" 

Meanwhile, in the void, a pair of eyes slowly emerged, staring at these people the moment they stepped into the world…
