Chapter 593 - The Arrival of the Secret Border, Intelligent Blackie
Chapter 593: The Arrival of the Secret Border, Intelligent Blackie
In the four-part architecture.
Li Nianfan was teaching the Food God how to cook.
“The basic quality of food is in the presentation, smell, and taste! These three things are decided by the hands of chefs.”
Li Nianfan pointed at all sorts of sauces and seasoning in front of him. He continued to say, “There are a lot of ways you can transform food. The most common method is through seasoning and knife skills!”
The Food God nodded but he barely understood. He asked curiously, “Lord Saint, may I ask to what level you can transform food?”
“To what level?”
Li Nianfan laughed. “To whatever you want!”
He had to be confident since he was teaching the Food God. Thus, he was also a bit mysterious and pretentious.
He casually picked up the cooking knife and slashed through the Pumpkin. The blades shined and danced like a butterfly.
The Food God did not blink as he stared. He carefully learned Food Cultivation under the knife. He felt the Wisdom surround him like shadows. He kept hearing loud noises.
In a matter of seconds, the Pumpkin skin was sliced away. Also, the Pumpkin transformed into the shape of a bear paw!
It was not big—approximately the size of a baby bear paw.
“This is the presentation of delicacies. I used my knife skills to create the appearance of a bear paw!”
Li Nianfan looked at the Food God. He smiled and asked, “Do you think I can make the Pumpkin taste exactly like a bear paw?”
“This…”
The Food God paused. His rationality told him that it was impossible. However, the expert probably asked that because he could. Moreover, the expert could do anything.
“I know you won’t believe it. But, it’s possible.” Li Nianfan laughed. “Watch closely!”
Then, Li Nianfan ignited the fire and showed the Food God how to cook.
He started to cook. A special aura appeared around him. His moves were smooth and flowed with ease. It was mesmerizing to watch.
The Food God bafflingly watched as he was surrounded by Wisdom. He was learning and understanding.
At that moment, he cheered internally. ‘A world. He’s clearly creating a world!’
Each delicacy was a whole new world!
The world was handled by the chefs. He could do whatever he wanted. He was the Master of delicious food!
The Food God stood still. He was mind blown.
Suddenly, a nice smell slowly entered his senses. The nice smell was almost touchable. He was awestruck. He almost felt like flying.
‘The smell of Wisdom! This is the smell of Wisdom!’
The Food God felt like his senses were activated. His skin could not wait to take in the smell. He absorbed every drop of Wisdom in the air.
His cultivation sky-rocketed. He was having an incredible breakthrough.
Mid-Taiyi Golden Immortal, Post-Taiyi Golden Immortal, Pre-Daluo Golden Immortal, Mid-Daluo Golden Immortal!
He was not an Immortal who took part in battles. So, his cultivation was always slow. However, he became a super powerful cultivator just by observing and breathing!
It was unimaginable. A lot of Immortals would be shocked to death!
“Done.”
Li Nianfan snapped the Food God out of it. He looked closely.
He saw a black bear paw on the plate. It was covered with a thick sauce, and it smelled appetizing.
From the presentation and smell, the Food God concluded that it was a bear paw!
However, he knew that it was a Pumpkin!
Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Try it.”
“Yeah. Thanks, Lord Saint.”
The Food God carefully picked it up with his chopsticks. Then, he ate it.
At that moment, the aroma of meat appeared. It teased his taste palette. He also felt the texture of meat!
Most importantly, he could taste the aura of a Beast!
He would never believe that it was made from a Pumpkin, but he saw it himself.
‘Magical!
‘This is an unnatural transformation!
‘Is this the power of Food Cultivation?’
Li Nianfan noticed that the Food God looked shocked. He felt slightly proud. He asked, “How is it?”
“It’s… Awesome!” exclaimed the Food God. “I wouldn’t be able to think of something like this.”
“It’s actually not hard. Let me teach you, step-by-step. Start from the knife skills and food carving.”
…
On that day.
A flame slashed through the sky with endless power. It fell right in the Area of the Gods!
The meteor was extremely fast. It was like a momentary flash. It crashed onto the ground!
The earth shook as the realm rumbled. Thunder could be heard!
The terrifying phenomenon formed a storm and spread out in all directions!
The ground was instantly demolished. Everything around it was turned to dust. The nearest Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal even died from the crash. The faraway cultivators were also affected by the earthquake. They were heavily injured!
Endless Demons and Beast shivered and knelt in worship.
Rumble!
The world echoed and started to create a terrifying storm cloud!
At that moment, every powerful cultivator in the Area of the Gods sensed it. They were anxious, but they were more excited.
“Oh my God, what’s that aura? So scary. I feel like I should kneel and worship!”
“This is more astounding than the Power of Heaven. Perhaps a powerful cultivator landed?”
“It must be a secret border. It’s absolutely a super powerful secret border. Unimaginable opportunities await!”
At the Legendary Beast Sect.
Cultivator Tianhong was healing at that moment. He suddenly opened his eyes. He teleported to the Sect in a flash.
Shi Tumingri and the others gathered at the Sect. They all looked toward the direction of the secret border. They noticed Cultivator Tianhong, so they bowed and said, “Greetings to Taishang Elder.”
Cultivator Tianhong cut to the chase. He said, “That is the aura of Wisdom! That secret border must be what’s left of an Elite before they died!”
“Yikes—”
Everyone gasped in shock.
The word ‘Elite’ was too shocking. Elites were extremely powerful cultivators that could turn the Chaos upside down.
Their power was unimaginable. They only existed in myths and legends.
However… The secret border of an Elite appeared. ‘What opportunities await us?’
‘Perhaps we have a slither of hope in becoming an Elite, too!’
Everyone had to feel excited. They were flushed from excitement.
“It’s a shame that I’m still healing. This can’t be delayed and I can’t go there.”
Cultivator Tianhong was disappointed. He sighed. Then, he said, “Shi Tumingri, bring someone along with you. Check the place out. The secret border must be complicated. I’ll be there as soon as I heal!”
Shi Tumingri instantly said, “Don’t worry, Taishang Elder. I’ll go right away!”
At the White Cloud Sect.
A healthy elder with robes and white hair looked in the direction of the secret border. He predicted by calculating with his fingers and instantly looked excited.
“This secret border is left by one of the Nine Elites that fought the Eldritchs back then!”
The elder was so excited to explore the secret border. Then, he suddenly exclaimed, “This means trouble! This means trouble!”
He looked at Bai Chen and said, “If what you said is true, I’m afraid that person’s an Elite, too! He may be one of the Nine Elites, right? The Area of the Gods appeared, and now the secret border has also appeared. I’m afraid that the history of the Chaos would recur!”
Bai Chen said sternly, “Elder Yun, what I said is true! I’m not a powerful cultivator, but I wouldn’t dare to lie. The expert must be more powerful than an Elite!”
Elder Yun nodded. Then, he said, “Let’s put that aside for the moment. We have to head toward the secret border right now. Come with me, let’s depart immediately!”
At the Heavenly Palace.
Cultivator Junjun and the others gathered at the Linxiao Palace. They looked serious.
However, compared to the other forces, they were very calm.
It was all because… They had seen too much.
Goddess Nuwa said, “The treasure from the Chaos had landed. The secret border appeared. The blessings and opportunities must be extraordinary!”
“Right.”
Cultivator Junjun nodded. Then, he said, “But, no matter how big the opportunity is, it must be nothing much compared to the expert.”
Everyone nodded at the same time.
They were constantly blessed by the expert. They felt baptized by opportunities every time, so they were used to it. They had trained a calm mentality.
The Jade Emperor said with excitement, “There must be a lot of treasure in a secret border like this. If we find something and give it to the expert, the expert will be pleased. It’ll be great.”
In a situation like that, their first thought was of finding treasures for the expert as a gift.
The Empress had to say, “It’ll be great if we can find new vegetables or fruits.”
How the expert treated the Food God was not a secret.
The expert taught him Food Cultivation just because he gave the expert Broccoli. His life was like a cheat code and his powers improved every day. His status was also not the same.
He was a bigshot chef. Even the Jade Emperor had to beg for a meal from him.
Juling Shen could not wait. He volunteered and said, “Emperor, please, allow me to go to the secret border. I’m experienced in finding vegetables and fruits.”
“You?”
Yang Jing sneered. He stepped forward and said, “I’ll be honest. My third eye was created to look for vegetables and fruits! Please, allow me to go!”
The Seven Princesses also said, “Emperor, we can sense plants. We can find vegetables and fruits.”
“Enough!”
The Jade Emperor said with seriousness, “This secret border’s extraordinary. You’re all not powerful cultivators, so it’ll be useless if you go. I’ll go myself!”
Cultivator Junjun instantly agreed and said, “That’s right. Stop arguing. The Jade Emperor and I will go.”
…
At the four-part architecture.
Li Nianfan was teaching the Food God how to cook at that moment. He sensed something and looked at the faraway horizon. He had to ask, “What’s going on? What’s with the commotion? There’s even a storm cloud in the sky.”
Daji replied, “I think a secret border appeared.”
“Secret border?”
Li Nianfan arched his eyebrow. He was familiar with that term. It was like a side quest for main characters in video games to gain treasures.
However, he was only curious. He did not want to fight for treasures and cause trouble for himself.
He casually said, “Judging by the commotion, the secret border must be huge. The treasure in it must be extraordinary.”
The Food God went along with it and said, “You’re right, Lord Saint.”
He considered the entire event to be a small mishap. The Food God continued to follow Li Nianfan’s cooking instructions. He worked hard on practicing how to cook. He said his farewells and left as the sky went dark.
However, Blackie turned into a black shadow and snuck out soon after he left.
The Food God was confused. He asked with respect, “Lord Dog, why did you follow me?”
“You silly little fool.”
Blackie rolled his eyes. He said, “Are you seriously going to leave like that? You’re more stupid than I am.”
The Food God was not angry at all. He asked with confusion, “What do you mean by that, Lord Dog?”
“My Master said ‘the treasure in the secret border must be extraordinary’. Do you seriously think it’s over with a ‘you’re right, Lord Saint’?”
Blackie shook his head. “That’d be ridiculous.”
The Food God jolted. The hint from Blackie enlightened him instantly.
Imagine if one’s boss said ‘This is nice’, and one merely replied with ‘You’re right, boss’…
That would be awkward. Would one get that promotion or not?
He felt afraid. He said, “Thanks for the reminder, Lord Dog. The expert’s giving me a hint to look for treasures in the secret border. I almost missed it. I almost disappointed the expert.”
Blackie nodded and said, “Good, you finally understand. My Master didn’t teach you how to cook for nothing.”
The Food God genuinely said, “You’re right to scold me, Lord Dog. I’ll complete the expert’s task with all my might.”
“Let’s go. I’ll go to the secret border with you. Let’s go get some nice things for my Master.”
Then, Blackie picked up the Food God and walked toward the secret border.
The Area of the Gods was huge. It was split into five areas. East, South, West, North, and Center Area.
The Fallen Immortal Mountain belonged to the Center Area.
The secret border landed in the East. It landed on a mountain, but the mountain was demolished into a field with a huge meteor hole.
The hole was bottomless and pitch black, but strong Power of Law surrounded the place. It was like a volcano that was about to erupt. Weird phenomena glimmered and shined.
That hole was without a doubt the entrance of the secret border…
