1165 Bu Fangs Exquisite Flaming Palm! (1/2)
”I finally made it...”
Bu Fang's faint voice resounded through the sky. Although it wasn't loud, it was clearly heard by everyone.
Meng Qi was carried by Shrimpy. After some time, she had regained some strength and sat up.
Since Shrimpy flew very fast, her hair whipped around in the wind. Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Bu Fang in the distance, bursting into a blaze of light and hope at the latter's appearance.
She knew where Bu Fang had gone.
To save the seed of the Immortal Tree, he went to Earth Prison in search of the Spring of Life. His return was equivalent to the return of the Immortal Cooking Realm's hope.
Did he really find the Spring of Life and return with hope?
Meng Qi looked eagerly at Bu Fang. She sincerely hoped it was true. She didn't want him to come back empty-handed.
Shrimpy flew at high speed and reached the Immortal City in a flash. After placing Meng Qi on the wall, it rose again in a streak of golden light and sped off toward Bu Fang.
Eyes were cast at Meng Qi from the surroundings, which gave her a pause. She looked around and found that there was a look of horror in the eyes of every Immortal Chef on the wall. She sighed.
If the Immortal Cooking Realm could survive this time, she felt it needed major reform. After staying in a safe and peaceful environment for too long, everyone's pluck and courage had already worn away.
Just then, it occurred to her that Bu Fang was up against five Nether Prison experts, and the weakest of them was at Eight-star True Immortal Realm. Could he cope with opponents of such formidable strength?
At the thought of this, her face turned pale.
...
A gust of wind blew over and stirred Bu Fang's hair, causing the velvet cord that bound his hair to unravel. His Vermillion Robe had turned fiery red, and two pairs of flaming wings spread behind his back. In his hand, he held the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, which emitted golden light as if it was made of pure gold.
”Oh? So there is still someone in the Immortal Cooking Realm who has the courage to stand up?”
”It turns out that there are still men in the Immortal Cooking Realm. Haha!”
”After letting a woman protect them for so long, it's time for a man to show up and get himself killed...”
The Nether Prison experts burst out laughing and looked at Bu Fang with mocking faces. To them, he was merely an ant coming out to die. They could not sense how strong his cultivation base was. Even so, they didn't take him seriously because apart from the realm lord and several city lords, there was no one in the Immortal Cooking Realm that could pose a threat to them, or so they thought.
”Finally made it? Haha! Are you saying that you finally made it to get yourself killed?” one of the Nether Prison experts said mockingly. The next moment, a formidable aura spread out of him, while stars flashed above his head. Then, he transformed into a stream of light and sped toward Bu Fang.
Bu Fang floated in midair and looked indifferently at that expert. The flaming wings behind his back flapped and stirred up gusts of strong wind.
Slowly, he raised the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife. The sound of heartbeats resounded across the sky as the Heart of Cooking Path pulsated.
”A slash...” Bu Fang said faintly. Right after that, a gust of wind stirred his Vermillion Robe, making it flicker like fire.
”What an arrogant guy!” The Nether Prison expert roared. A plume of dark Nether energy rose into the sky. With both fists placed next to his waist, he rushed out. The next moment, two savage beasts dashed at Bu Fang.
Roar! Roar!
The beasts' roars echoed through the air, while a terrifying pressure pervaded the sky. All the people in the city were cowering in the corners of the city walls, not daring to breathe too loud. Even City Lord Meng Qi clenched her fists nervously.
”Cutting Immortal Style...”
Bu Fang swung his Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife down. His eyes flashed, and a mighty burst of true energy exploded out of him. Suddenly, the roars and cries of a dragon, a tiger, a bird, and a tortoise rang out in his mind, causing waves to rise in his spirit sea. At the same time, the golden texts shone blindingly.
The next moment, his divine perception swept out like a tornado, striking the mind of the Nether Prison expert like a shockwave. It exploded in his spirit sea, making him look somewhat dazed and blurring his consciousness.
Even then, a huge shadow emerged behind Bu Fang, making a straight cut with the kitchen knife in its hand...
The sky seemed to have been torn by this kitchen knife.
In everyone's eyes, the knife was extremely brilliant. It slashed down in a flash, cutting the two beasts made of Nether energy and the Nether Prison expert in half…
Blood sprayed in all directions.
The expert's eyes were filled with disbelief when his body suddenly exploded with a boom.
He was killed!
Everyone was stunned. Both the Nether Prison experts and the Immortal Chefs in the Immortal City were stupefied.
He had slain a Nine-star True Immortal Realm expert with just... one slash?! Who the hell was he? Why was he so strong?!
”He is... the Great Demon King!” someone recognized Bu Fang and shouted out loud.
”Ah?! Oh, yes, he really is the Great Demon King!”
”Heaven! When did the Great Demon King become so strong?”
”He killed a Nine-star True Immortal with one slash... The Great Demon King is invincible!”
The Immortal City was completely boiling. Everyone's face turned red with excitement. In their minds, the Great Demon King was a miracle, and now, his appearance had brought them another miracle. He had just killed a Nine-star True Immortal alone... Was this really something that the Great Demon King, who was merely a One-star True Immortal Realm expert, could achieve?
”No, no, no... The Great Demon King is no longer a One-star True Immortal!” someone shouted excitedly.
”Look, the Great Demon King's aura is far beyond that of a One-star True Immortal! Even City Lord Meng Qi seems to be slightly weaker than him...”
”Could it be that... Could it be that the Great Demon King is a Nine-star True Immortal now?!”
”How did the Great Demon King manage to break through so fast?!”
