1212 The Culinary Gates of Life and Death (1/2)

Qilin meat tasted somewhat similar to Dragon meat, but it had more fat and was more cloying, making it more suitable as the main ingredient for the Sweet and Sour Meat than dragon meat.

Dragon meat tasted better when cooked in the style of Drunken Spare Ribs because of its crunchiness. Qilin meat, on the other hand, was rich and greasy, but it was more fragrant, and its soft and moist texture was refreshing for the palate.

However, the most valuable part of a Qilin was its bones, not the meat. It contained Qilin's essence, and if the bones were used to make soup, the essence would infuse into the broth and sublimate the dish.

Bu Fang picked up a piece of Sweet and Sour Meat with his chopsticks. It was coated with a layer of orange sauce, and as it was removed from the plate, sticky liquid dripped from it. He put it into his mouth and closed his teeth around it. The crispy skin was softened after stir-frying, so his teeth bit through it straight away and met the tender Qilin meat. After it was bitten, grease flowed out of it and rushed into his mouth.

Bu Fang's eyes lit up slightly. It was the first time he tasted Qilin meat. He had tried Dragon meat many times, and he found that Qilin meat was fatter compared with Dragon meat.

After tasting the Qilin meat, he picked up a piece of Ananas fruit that he had cut into a triangular shape. The fruit tasted sweet and sour and was crunchy, making it a suitable complement to the meat's lack of crunchiness.

Bu Fang nodded as he ate.

…

Far off, a terrible fluctuation erupted.

All eyes turned to that direction with looks of disbelief.

Ye Yun wore a terrified expression. He found that a mighty aura had targeted him. It seemed to shine onto his soul, and no matter how he struggled, he could not get rid of it. He knew the aura. It was the aura of death.

”I don't want to die! I haven't become a Divine Chef yet! How could I die here?!” he roared. His face was all twisted, and a savage look replaced his calm and noble air. Nobody could remain calm in the face of death.

”Haha! Stop struggling... Be good and become my food! I'll cook your flesh into a delicious dish!” Opposite Ye Yun, an Abyssal Demon burst into laughter, showing his sharp teeth.

Boom!

Ye Yun's expression changed drastically. He turned and was about to run when a terrible force smashed him to the ground. Right after that, bone spears shot over and pierced his body.

Slash!

The genius's face turned deathly pale as blood poured out of him. As a Little Saint, he had strong vitality. However, as soon as he was pierced, he felt his strength leave him at an incredible rate as if it was drained by those bone spears.

In the blink of an eye, those spears stacked up on top of one another, turned into a huge bony palm, and covered Ye Yun.

As the number of bone spears kept increasing, however, he was soon fully covered, and his gaze also gradually disappeared.

Very quickly, Ye Yun was completely devoured.

A wriggling sound seemed to echo out under the bone spears. Before long, they turned into a bone rack, on top of which was placed a chunk of meat. Ye Yun's bones had mixed into the bones that made up the arena.

With a bloodless face, Ying Ya gasped in horror and felt cold all over. He was not very nervous, but that had changed after watching what just happened. He didn't expect Ye Yun to lose to an Abyssal Demon in cooking.

The cost of losing in the Chef's Challenge was death.

Ye Yun's cooking skills were almost on the same level as his. If even Ye Yun had lost the challenge, what did that mean to Ying Ya?

It meant that even he might lose the challenge.

Ying Ya took a deep breath, and he felt his heart begin to race.

Lub-dub! Lub-dub!

Pressing a hand against his chest, he turned his eyes to Bu Fang.

Bu Fang picked up a piece of Double Cooked Meat with his chopsticks and shoved it into his mouth. While chewing it, he looked up and met Ying Ya's eyes.

The dish tasted totally different from his Sweet and Sour Meat. He was surprised by its crispiness, and most importantly, it was mixed with a sweet and sour flavor. He had to admit that the Abyssal Demon's cooking skills were excellent and comparable to that of a Qilin Chef. The dish contained the unique styles of the demon's race, but there were still many flaws.

After comparing the two dishes, Bu Fang managed to figure out what made him win the challenge. If truth be told, the gap between his dish and the Abyssal Demon's dish was not large. He was somewhat lucky to be the winner.

…

A miserable shriek rang out in the distance.

Realm Lord Di Tai sat down on the ground, panting violently. He won, but it was a narrow victory. With a lingering fear in his heart, he turned to look at Bu Fang with an excited look on his face.

The result of Ying Ya's arena was revealed as well. He won the challenge. The tension in his heart was finally released, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Putting away the Abyssal Demon meat, he glanced at Bu Fang and Realm Lord Di Tai. His face grew serious once again. He didn't expect that the two chefs from the Immortal Cooking Realm would reach this far...

This result had completely deviated from their original intention!

'It doesn't matter... I will completely crush these Immortal Chefs and obtain the Divine Chef's inheritance!'

RUMBLE!

All of a sudden, the bone arena began to shake violently. Bu Fang ate another piece of Sweet and Sour Meat and arched his eyebrows. The next moment, the arena collapsed with a boom, disintegrating into countless bones that wheeled in the air.
