Wok tossing was an essential skill for a chef, and every chef was very familiar with it. As a basic cooking skill, it was the first thing they learned. However, in the days that followed, they paid less attention to it. Very few people spent their time relearning the technique.

Bu Fang was very surprised to see a wok tossing technique in this seal. But he would not ignore it. The inheritance had transmitted the technique into his head, and he just needed to use it accordingly.

Diamond-like sand and stone flew up from the wok, sparkling in the air. As the number of tosses increased, the pressure on his divine sense grew stronger and stronger. It was as if a millstone was grinding at his divine sense.

Luo Sanniang fixed her eyes on Bu Fang. She could sense the change in his aura, which made her shake with fright. She was worried that he would die suddenly like the divine chef before him. That would be a great loss to the Divine Chef Temple!

One hundred was a very sensitive number, but the counter did not stop at that for too long. Soon, it was replaced by a new number. The watchers breathed sighs of relief when they saw the number change.

Bu Fang did not die at one hundred, as what had happened to the previous divine chef. However, many people were still worried. He had survived that number, yes, but he might die at another number.

They did not know what he and the divine chef had gone through. Perhaps it was similar to the tests of the first seal, which required them to make a certain number of cuts. But this was just their speculation. They could only know the answer after Bu Fang finished the test.

The counter kept changing. Soon, the number reached two hundred, and it did not stop there but continued to increase.

Three hundred, four hundred, five hundred…

The continuous change in the number made everyone’s nerves stretch taut like a string, which seemed to break at any time.


Eight hundred! And it shows no sign of stopping!



The divine chef before him died at one hundred…



He’s truly worthy to be the man who broke the first seal!


The divine chefs present gradually broke free from their fear and became calmer. They began to exclaim, shocked by Bu Fang’s strength.


Nine hundred and ninety…


Everyone saw that his face had turned bloodless!


Nine hundred and ninety-nine!


When the counter jumped to nine hundred and ninety-nine, everyone’s eyes focused. Then, a strange energy wave spread through the place.

Bu Fang, standing like a statue, finally moved. His body swayed, and then his pale face turned red in a flash as the drained divine sense rapidly returned to his spirit sea after he had completed the first test.

To his surprise, the strength of his divine sense seemed to have improved to another level. He paused and examined the much stronger divine sense. Before this, its range was only ten miles, and this was already the standard of most of the mid-grade Gods in the capital.

After the divine sense was returned to him, its range expanded to one hundred miles. A divine sense of this level had already gone way out of the Demigod Realm.

He withdrew the divine sense, and the pressure that pressed on the hearts of those present gradually faded away. Everyone’s eyes were full of enthusiasm as they stared at him. He was not dead, and he had passed the second seal’s test!

Luo Sanniang appeared in front of Bu Fang in a flash, and she studied him with a look of worry and excitement. She was worried that something might happen to him, but still, she was excited that he managed to survive the test.


How is it? Do you feel any discomfort?
she asked hastily.

The other divine chefs also gathered around and surrounded Bu Fang. They were very curious about what he had gone through.

Bu Fang looked very calm. The Wok Tossing Style of Affliction was still in his head, but he could not use it in the real world. Clearly, before he completed all the tests, he could not get the complete technique. He exhaled softly, glanced at the people around him, and told them everything he knew.

Everyone went crazy when he mentioned the Wok Tossing Style of Affliction. It was a divine power! To comprehend a divine power, the only way was to become a God King or to comprehend the supreme Law of the Universe.

There was a shortcut now, however. They could comprehend it from the inheritance’s seal. It was a rare opportunity for everyone present! Even Luo Sanniang was tempted, but she knew very well that she was not a chef, so she could not comprehend the divine power.


A friendly reminder to all of you… This test is very dangerous. Ordinary people better don’t try it… Otherwise, you will end up like the previous divine chef,
Bu Fang said seriously. He thought that he should emphasize this.

Luo Sanniang’s face grew solemn. Since even Bu Fang said that it was dangerous, then it must be really dangerous. However, she did nothing to stop them. After learning from Bu Fang that they could comprehend a divine power from the seal, they became too excited to heed her advice. A divine power was too tempting for them.

Bu Fang said nothing more. He clasped his hands behind his back and left.

There were three tests in the second seal. The first test was to toss the wok for nine hundred and ninety-nine times, the second test was nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine times, and the last one was ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine times!

Each test was different, and the difficulty increased exponentially from the last one. Bu Fang could pass the first test, but he had no confidence in passing the second test. That was why he left instead of choosing to continue.

He did not have to finish all three tests at one go. As long as he finished one test, he could continue the next one at any time. However, he could not fail because once he did, his divine sense would be destroyed, or he would be killed!

Bu Fang returned to his luxury room. He needed to rest. Luo Sanniang left as well, but she went to look for the higher echelon of the Divine Chef Temple. She had to report such an important incident to them.

…

Early the next day, Bu Fang slowly opened his eyes. He had been sitting cross-legged for the whole night, and his slightly swollen divine sense finally recovered. He breathed out a puff of turbid air. His divine sense had suddenly grown stronger, and he naturally needed to get used to it. So he spent one whole night to stabilize it.

He rose to his feet and stretched his back. At this moment, the System’s serious voice rang in his head.

‘Attention, Host. The renovation of the restaurant has been completed…’


Oh? The renovation has been completed?
This did not surprise Bu Fang, though.
I wonder what style the System has decorated the restaurant? According to its nature, it should not be a luxury style. Most likely, it’s very simple and unadorned.


He pushed the door open, stepped out of the room, and walked along the wide street between the distinguished guest towers with an indifferent face.

The Divine Chef Temple was very quiet. That made Bu Fang feel a little strange, but he realized what had happened in an instant. He reckoned that most of the divine chefs had gone to try to break the seal. The temptation of a divine power was too great that he could not stop them. Therefore, he could only wish them good luck.

After some time, Bu Fang boarded a dragon-horse chariot. The driver cracked his whip, and the chariot sped away. Before long, he had arrived at Luo Sanniang’s property, the skyscraper. He had said that the restaurant would open today.

He went into the building, took the transport array, and came to the top floor. The restaurant door was locked. With hands clasped behind his back, Bu Fang walked up to it.

A rumbling sound rang out as the metal doors, which were carved with mysterious patterns, slowly moved to either side. Bu Fang’s eyes lit up, and he walked into the restaurant.

He was greeted by a brand-new renovation style, which was unlike any of his previous restaurants. This restaurant was very luxurious. It had full-height windows, the floor was paved with golden bricks, and here and there were beautiful floor lamps and small table lamps that glowed with warm light.

There were not many seats either. Bu Fang saw only four tables. He walked inside the restaurant, admiring the brand-new style. Nothing in the kitchen had changed much, though. Whitey was already standing at the kitchen entrance, waiting for him.

On the whole, Bu Fang was satisfied with the renovation. It was rare that the System was generous enough to renovate a restaurant in such a luxurious style.

The restaurant also had a small balcony, as it was located on the top floor of the building. A few chairs were placed there. Bu Fang pulled over one, sat on it, and felt the gentle breeze blowing across his face. A look of contentment came over his face.

A long time later, Bu Fang breathed a sigh of relief. It was time for the restaurant to open. He still remembered the System’s temporary task, which was to open a branch in the capital of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty. He also remembered the reward—a Fruit of Law!

At the thought of the fruit, Bu Fang’s eyes lit up. Previously, he had eaten a Fruit of Law, and it brought him to the Sea of Laws where he comprehended the Law of Transmigration. If he ate another Fruit of Law, would it let him smoothly break through to the God Realm?

Ting-a-ling!

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the restaurant. The doors opened by themselves, and then Luo Sanniang stepped through it with several other people.


Mister Bu, we’ve come to support you. Today is the opening of your new restaurant. How can it be so quiet?
Luo Sanniang said with a smile on her face.

The people beside her were shrouded in powerful auras, and their eyes gleamed brightly. It was clear that they were all people with unusual status.

Luo Sanniang came beside Bu Fang as he sat comfortably in the chair. Suddenly, a serious look came over her face, and she said,
Mister Bu, the people you asked me to find… I’ve gotten some news about them…


Bu Fang was standing up when he heard that. He froze, then he abruptly turned to Luo Sanniang.

It seemed that Luo Sanniang did not know how to tell him the news. She looked somewhat struggling.


The news is not so good… Does Mister Bu still want to know?
