If truth be told, Bu Fang’s curiosity was aroused by the System.
‘Where is this sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits? The Qilin said it is somewhere I am familiar with, and the System suddenly became naughty and refused to tell me… Where would it be?’
A place where the Artifact Spirits could sleep must be extraordinary. Bu Fang pondered for a long time with curiosity swirling in his heart. However, he did not think too deeply.
Standing on the skyscraper’s top floor, he enjoyed the morning breeze. A new day had begun, and it was a day full of life. However, as he looked at the city that had turned into ruins, Bu Fang decided not to open the restaurant today.
The Xiayi crown prince and the Titan crown prince had joined the army in hunting down the Soul Demons, so they had not yet returned to the restaurant. As for Bu Fang, he was a little tired after the great battle, so he planned to give himself a day off.
Of course, he had nothing else to do when the restaurant was closed. What he had in mind was to pull over a chair and lie on it on the skyscraper’s roof for the whole day.
…
One by one, experts descended from the sky. They were from various great worlds and had formed teams to hunt down Soul Demons, and now they finally returned in triumph.
It was a lively day. The entire Xiayi Divine Dynasty seemed to have been reborn. People were laughing and cheering, thinking that this was a day worthy of a grand celebration.
Bu Fang lounged in the chair for half a day, and when he opened his eyes, it was already evening. A day had gone by just like that. It was quite comfortable to be lazy sometimes.
With a thought in his mind, he went into the Heaven and Earth Farmland. He had not been here for a long time, and in this latest visit, he found the place significantly different than before. It was extremely vast now, so much so that it looked like a small planet. The landscape was still the same, though—the lush grassland and the surging river were still at the same place.
Bu Fang landed before a wooden hut in a corner of the farmland. Upon hearing his footsteps, many people walked out of the hut.
Eighty had grown fatter. The transformation of the farmland had benefited it a lot, and it ate so much that it was now as large as a… pig. It could not even run nor flap its wings. Bu Fang was speechless as he looked at the gluttonous chicken.

Rubbing his hands, Niu Hansan rested his eyes on Bu Fang. He knew that the farmland’s transformation was directly related to Bu Fang, as whenever the latter grew stronger, the farmland changed. Judging from the recent transformation, Niu Hansan knew that Bu Fang had… grown stronger again.
‘This fellow is truly a gifted genius…’
A splashing sound could be heard as a fat blood lobster waved its pincher at Bu Fang from the River of Life. However, a glance from him immediately sent it back under the water. The corners of Bu Fang’s lips curled upward slightly.

The tall and straight Immortal Tree sat right in the middle of the farmland, towering into the clouds. On its crown, the Senseless Lotus was quietly blooming. Mu Hongzi had once said the lotus could save Bu Fang’s life at the most critical moment, so he had been curious about it. He wondered what its effect was.
The Nine Revolution Great Path Tea Tree was emanating an energetic life force, while a refreshing fragrance of tea kept wafting out of it. There seemed to be flowers swaying between its branches.
With hands clasped behind his back, Bu Fang walked in the farmland, sensing the changes that had quietly happened to it. The Spirit Energy of Heaven and Earth here was much richer than that in the Netherworld, making it a better place to cultivate.
After chatting with Niu Hansan for a while, Bu Fang left the farmland.
Sitting on a wooden chair with his leg crossed, Niu Hansan watched with a faint light flashing in his eyes as Bu Fang left.
…
When Bu Fang returned to the restaurant, dusk had already descended upon the city.
The army that went hunting down the Soul Demons had come back victorious. Without the Soul Overlord leading them, the Soul Demons were all slain by the Xiayi Divine Emperor. This time, the people of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty showed no mercy.
The creatures had almost wiped out all the living beings in the Chaotic Universe, so the people dared not to let this scary situation happen again. Therefore, they spared none of the Soul Demons!
Most of the Numbered Soul Demons were killed, while a few of them were captured and would be locked up in an abyssal jail for eternity. The ancient beasts were captured as well. Since they were too enormous, no ordinary means could keep them under control, so the Xiayi Divine Emperor arranged for them to be sealed in some planets.
Bu Fang stood on the skyscraper’s rooftop as one figure after another flew toward him. The Titan crown prince, his blood and energy boiling, landed before Bu Fang with bloodshot eyes and bowed respectfully. Then, the Xiayi crown prince, the Xiayi Divine Emperor, and other experts such as the heads of various aristocratic families also descended.
Everyone was looking at Bu Fang with awe and respect. The look in the Xiayi Divine Emperor’s eyes was somewhat complex. He never thought that in the end, Bu Fang still became the existence who saved them from the desperate situation.
The chef had helped the Xiayi Divine Dynasty avoid the calamity, so it was not wiped out by the Soul Demons like the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty and the Titan Divine Dynasty.
In the days that followed, the Xiayi Divine Dynasty never stopped its hunting of Soul Demons. Its experts began to search every small world, and whenever they found a trace of any Soul Demon, they killed the savage creature with one swift blow.
Meanwhile, the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty and the Titan Divine Dynasty were both restored. Although their Divine Emperors had fallen, their status as divine dynasties still existed. Of course, when compared to the Xiayi Divine Dynasty, they were significantly weaker now.
The Titan crown prince had returned to his homeland, where he began to rebuild the divine dynasty and raise talents from the remaining small worlds under his rule.
The Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty, on the other hand, was overseen by Xiao Yanyu and Ah Mo. The crown princess had made a breakthrough through the shining all heavens, so her strength was formidable now. No ordinary high-grade God King was her match. Therefore, no one objected when she ascended the throne as the new Immortal Spirit Empress.
The whole Chaotic Universe began to restore to its pace before the disaster, and everything seemed to be thriving.
…
The top floor of the Luo Family’s skyscraper… No, not just the top floor—from the ground floor of the recently repaired skyscraper all the way up the top floor was packed with people lining up to get inside the restaurant.
Luo Sanniang squeezed through the crowd, climbed to the top floor, walked past the line outside the door, and stepped into the restaurant. She was instantly washed over by the noisy sound of people talking and eating.
Every patron’s face was red as they ate. They bared their teeth, their lips swelling, but their eyes were shining. There was a strange smell in the air, which was a little stinky and sour. In short, it was not a pleasant smell.
Soon, Luo Sanniang’s eyes got big because she found that the stench actually came from the bowls in those patrons’ hands!

Dammit! This smells so good!


Delicious! It’s spicy and sour… so tasty that I can swallow my own tongue!


Oh my! I’ve never tasted anything so great! The broth is sweet but doesn’t lack the sourness… This is simply the best delicacy of the mortal world!

The patrons kept praising as they ate frantically, slurping noodles and drinking broth with a look of happiness on their faces. They were enjoying the river snails rice noodles cooked by Bu Fang. Each of them had a bowl, and they looked as happy as deities.
The people waiting in the line outside were so hungry that their mouths kept watering. Only those who had tried the river snails rice noodles could understand its unique flavor. It was a kind of enchanting taste.
Ting-a-ling!
The kitchen’s curtain was lifted, and then Bu Fang walked out of it, holding two bowls of rice noodles in his hands. The Xiayi crown prince promptly took them from him, turned, and walked toward a table. Everything was so orderly.
Nethery was helping as well. As for Er Ha, the fellow was chatting with Luo Sanniang’s girlfriends in a corner. When these girls saw Luo Sanniang, they waved at her happily.
Bu Fang went back into the kitchen. Shrimpy perched on his shoulder, rolling its little round eyes. He took out some food ingredients and began cooking again. The daily operation of the restaurant was actually a repetition of the tedious task of cooking. However, it was this tedious task that slowly but surely improved his cooking skills.
What happened after the disaster of the Soul Demon, Bu Fang did not know. Lately, he had ignored everything else except for cooking. Every day, he opened the restaurant and cooked in the kitchen. When the day was over, he cooked some delicious delicacies and enjoyed them with his friends.
Occasionally, the Xiayi Divine Emperor would come to eat and drink for free in the restaurant, but Bu Fang did not mind. Days passed by at a steady pace, and the dynasty capital had regained its former prosperity and flourishing.
…
The stars were flickering in the sky. Bu Fang stood on the skyscraper’s rooftop, looking up at the starry sky to relax his body and mind.
His cultivation base had reached the God Emperor realm, which made him one of the top existences in the Chaotic Universe. However, because of that, he had also come to a bottleneck.
Bu Fang wanted to become a God of Cooking, and this was definitely not the end of his journey. He still needed to move forward. Therefore, he had to break through the God Emperor realm and advance to an even stronger realm. However, how to break through was a major problem for him.
He had forcibly broken through into the God realm on his own effort, with the shining all heavens. So the ordinary way of becoming a Heavengod naturally would not work for him. Bu Fang sighed.
Apart from that, it was almost time for him to get prepared to wake up the God of Cooking Sets’ Artifact Spirits. He reckoned that the exact location where the Artifact Spirits were sleeping was about to be revealed to him.
Sure enough, just as Bu Fang was pondering, the System’s serious voice rang out in his head.
‘Attention, Host. Does the Host want to teleport to the sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits?’ the System asked.
Staring at the starry sky with a deep look in his eyes, Bu Fang took a deep breath and said, ‘Yes.’ He had to face it anyhow. If the God of Cooking Sets were imperfect, he would not be able to truly step onto the peak of the God of Cooking. So, he had to wake up the Artifact Spirits.
After Bu Fang answered, the System fell silent. It was a long time before it spoke again, ‘The qualification has been validated. Attention, Host. The teleportation to the sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits will begin in three hours. A friendly reminder: The sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits is very dangerous. Please be prepared.’
‘Oh? The teleportation will begin in three hours? So fast?’ Bu Fang paused slightly. However, three hours was enough for him to prepare his things. In fact, he did not have many things to prepare.
The sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits was very dangerous, so Bu Fang planned to go there himself. However, as soon as he turned around, he saw Nethery standing behind him, giving him a look that made his scalp go numb.
Without a doubt, she knew that he was about to teleport to somewhere else, and she wanted to follow. Bu Fang could not reject her.
They went back to the restaurant. Bu Fang briefly explained the situation to the Xiayi crown prince and the Titian crown prince. After making arrangements for the restaurant’s operation when he was gone, he began to prepare for the teleportation.
Lord Dog was still sleeping under the Path-Understanding Tree. No one dared to be disrespectful to him nowadays, including the Xiayi Divine Emperor. After all, his true identity was a Heavengod, so who would dare offend him?
When everything was prepared, Bu Fang came to the top floor of the skyscraper—the teleport array would be activated here. He was clad in the Vermilion Robe, with Shrimpy perched on one shoulder and Foxy on the other. Nethery stood quietly at his side, waiting to be teleported.
Many people had come to see them off when they learned that Bu Fang was going to travel to a far place. The Xiayi Divine Emperor was here as well, and eventually, the whole divine dynasty was shaken. Before long, the Luo Family’s skyscraper was surrounded by rings of people. This showed how popular Bu Fang was.
Looking at all the people, Bu Fang exhaled deeply. The next moment, the System’s cold and serious voice rang in his head. Dots of white light began to emerge around him and converged into a mysterious array. It was many times more profound than any of the previous arrays, and it seemed to absorb the souls of those who glanced at it.
As soon as the array appeared, it slowly spun. Then, as all the people watched, Bu Fang, Foxy, Nethery, and Shrimpy gradually dissolved into dots of white light and quietly… scattered and faded away.
Bu Fang was in a trance. He felt the people before his eyes grew blurry, and even Nethery, who stood at his side, became vague. Eventually, only darkness was left in his eyes.
He had no idea how long had passed, but finally, he saw a flash of light in that endless darkness. Soon, the flash of light grew into a planet.
It was a… blue planet.
