Gourmet of Another World

A lot had happened in Forbidden Soul City recently. Not only had its name spread all over Earth Prison, but many experts had visited it. And now, there seemed to be an expert facing the tribulation in the city.

“By the looks of it, this thunder tribulation is an extraordinary one…” Some people were inexperienced and didn’t know what the thunder tribulation meant. However, experienced experts recognized it in an instant, and that made them gasp.

“This is a… Great Saint Tribulation!”

“Who is breaking through the Great Saint Realm?!”

“Is it because of that wine? Can a Nine-revolution Little Saint really break through the Great Saint Realm after drinking it?”

Many people were astonished. They didn’t expect this to happen.

A Little Saint needed to go through a qualitative transformation to become a Great Saint, and that was to form his or her own little world, and then form the Will of the Great Path for the little world.

It was not just the accumulation of energy. How could a cup of wine achieve that? And yet, to everyone’s surprise, it actually succeeded!

“It’s the City Lord of Goddess City! I saw her walk into the little restaurant with my own eyes! It must be her! She’s breaking through after drinking the wine!”

“Could it be a coincidence? The City Lord of Goddess City is a Perfected Little Saint to begin with.”

“Coincidence or not, if this wine can really help a Nine-revolution Little Saint step into the Great Saint Realm… it’s worth one million Nether Crystals a cup!”

Everyone was thrilled. At this moment, those heads of aristocratic families who had left all came running back with millions of Nether Crystals, gathering in Forbidden Soul City to watch the Great Saint Tribulation.

Empress Bi Luo sat in the restaurant. Her face was flushed, making her look even more beautiful. It was a long time before she gave Bu Fang, who was wiping cups, a complicated look. Coincidence or not, she was about to step into the Great Saint Realm today.

Rising from her seat, Empress Bi Luo suppressed the tipsy feeling churning in her. The wine was so strong that she nearly passed out, but she knew that she was on the verge of breaking through, so she couldn’t afford to pass out. And so, after bidding farewell to Bu Fang, she walked out of the restaurant.

The moment Empress Bi Luo left the restaurant, the whole Forbidden Soul City exploded into an uproar. Even then, heaven and earth seemed to fall silent as terrible explosions and a rumbling sound filled the air.

She began to transcend her tribulation, the Great Saint Tribulation that countless people had dreamed of and feared.

The tribulation went on for one whole night. The next morning, when the first sunlight appeared in the sky, the thunderclouds finally dispersed. Empress Bi Luo’s impressive body could be seen hovering in midair. Her eyes were narrowed, and she looked as if she was savoring the terrible power in her.

From the sky came a peal of laughter. Stepping through the air, Nether King Er Ha arrived. He talked and laughed with Empress Bi Luo.

Soon, Ying Long came as well, leaning on his staff. He nodded at the empress. Bi Luo was the previous Nether King’s offspring as well, so he would naturally give her the respect she deserved. As he looked at her, his heart was filled with mixed emotions.

The previous Nether King was truly amazing, for even an offspring he produced from lust was extraordinary, and now she had even reached the Great Saint Realm, becoming one of the top powers of Earth Prison. A pity that Empress Bi Luo came from God Vanishing Mountain. Otherwise, as the previous Nether King’s offspring, she could lead Earth Prison together with Nether King Er Ha to defend against the attack that Nether Prison was about to launch.

Empress Bi Luo smiled in midair. At that moment, everyone was in a trance. It was as if all the flowers in the world had quietly bloomed.

After having a few words with Nether King Er Ha, she turned and gave the quiet Yellow Spring Little Restaurant a deep look. Then, she sped away, turning into a beam of light and disappearing into the horizon. She was going back to God Vanishing Mountain to report her findings to her Master.

In the sky, a figure strode over, holding a jade jar and grinning from ear to ear. He was none other than Yellow Spring Great Sage. With the others, he landed on the ground and stepped into the restaurant. After chatting with Bu Fang for a while, everyone left.

…

Nether Prison had already launched many operations. Many small worlds around it began to unite with it to become a great world. Except for a few small worlds, most have succumbed to its power.

Countless armies were assembled on a vast flatland. Terrible auras tangled together and soared into the sky as if to cause a major change to the whole world.

These armies came from the various clans of Nether Prison, consisting of experts whose faces were covered with feverish looks!

Rumble!

Great Saints of the nine clans flew over from the horizon and hovered in midair. Fearsome auras spread from them, twisting the void around them. Standing straight in the sky, they looked like pillars that supported the world.

Nether Prison had more Great Saints than Earth Prison, and the main reason was that its resources were richer than that of Earth Prison.

Suddenly, the void was torn apart, and then nine rifts appeared in the sky.

At the sight of that, all the Nether Prison experts became more feverish, and each of them looked extremely excited.

“Patriarchs!” The Nether Prison Great Saints wore solemn expressions as they bowed at the void. Soon, several vague figures emerged in midair.

“The pace of the unification of the Netherworld must move forward, and the small worlds around us must surrender. If reason fails, use force.” A profound voice thundered through the skies. “Conquer the small worlds that are unwilling to surrender, including West Little Buddhism Realm, Wandering Soul Realm, the Abyss, Immortal Cooking Realm, and Earth Prison! The Netherworld becoming a great world is irreversible! This is the inevitable manifestation of the Laws of Heaven and Earth!”

As the voice rang out, the armies down below exploded into cheers and shouts. Their voices soared into the sky and shocked the whole world. The Great Saints in midair also cupped their fists and feverish looks.

It was time for Nether Prison to show its mettle.

Later, deafening voices began to ring out continuously in the sky. The supreme experts of the nine clans took turns to talk and assign tasks. Every clan was ordered to attack a small world which refused to surrender, and they would be led by Great Saints.

The Fire Demon Clan was the first to depart. Shrouded in terrible flames that could burn off everything, tens of thousands of Fire Demons screamed and turned into a river of fire as they sped toward the distant sky.

The Sword Demon Clan, the Nether Chef Clan, and the others had received their orders as well. Each of them had their own target. Of course, as every clan’s strength was different, the small world each clan needed to conquer was different. For weaker small worlds, weaker clans were sent. Nether Prison’s actions were calculated and deliberate.

The operation had caused the entire Netherworld to go through a tremendous change.

However, the nine clans of Nether Prison didn’t attack Earth Prison. The main reason was that its status was different. No ordinary clan could capture Earth Prison.

The war had begun. The deployment of Nether Prison armies shocked the whole Netherworld. The small worlds surrendered to Nether Prison and were also forced to send their experts to war. For a moment, the entire Netherworld was mobilized to conquer those small worlds that refused to surrender.

…

Down below in the Abyss…

The Great Judge watched with a towering rage as a palm came crashing down from the sky. In the blink of an eye, the team of Judges formed by him was slapped into a bloody and gory mess. Under the attack of several Great Saints, the Abyss City’s walls collapsed, and its defense crumbled completely.

The Abyss, which had just freed itself from Nether Prison’s control, chose to surrender once again under the crushing power. When a Great Saint of the Fire Demon Clan casually thrust a banner of his clan onto the ruin of Abyss City, the Great Judge and the Lord of Abyss City bowed their heads.

…

The Wandering Soul Realm was a cold world with souls flying everywhere.

An enormously huge savage monster stood in midair with its hooves crashing through the walls of the Wandering Soul Realm’s major city. When countless experts turned into broken souls under the hooves, the remaining experts chose to surrender as well. Trembling, they watched as the Horned Demon Clan’s flag rose from the ruin.

…

Similar scenes kept happening in the small worlds around the Netherworld.

The Winged Man Valley had already surrendered to Nether Prison’s pressure, and it had sent countless experts to follow the Nether Prison armies into various small worlds. Although they could not let their holy light illuminate the skies, they could follow Nether Prison’s steps and cast the holy light to every corner of the Netherworld.

The smoke of war soon spread all over the Netherworld. Many small worlds were threatened. In the face of the domineering Nether Prison, some second-class and third-class small worlds chose to surrender. Such a monster was not what they could resist.

Of course, some small worlds with backbone would not easily surrender.

In the West Little Buddhism Realm, the chanting of Buddha’s name rang through heaven and earth. Amid bright Buddha’s light, a towering Great Buddha enveloped the whole realm with a Buddhist Kingdom flashing in its palm.

The Great Saint from the Beastmaster Clan, who was sent to attack the West Little Buddhism Realm, was seriously wounded by the palm and forced to flee. His army was routing as well, and the savage monsters summoned by them had turned into gory carcasses that fell off from the sky.

As a first-class small world, the West Little Buddhism Realm still had the dignity that matched its status.

Meanwhile, in the Vajra Realm, two naked experts burst into a golden light and grew ten thousand meters tall. They threw out their fists and brought down a Divine Chef of the Nether Chef Clan from the sky.

Terrible roars shocked the world.

Some small worlds surrendered, and some small worlds chose to resist. All in all, a war of surrender and resistance was spreading around the Netherworld.

…

In the Immortal Cooking Realm, the huge bronze door slowly opened with a deafening creaking sound. Even then, the Immortal Tree’s branches spread out as if to lash the sky and the ground, enveloping the whole fifth layer.

Meng Qi and the other City Lords watched from outside the fifth layer. Their faces were livid with shock. It never occurred to them that Nether Prison would be insane enough to start a war. Suddenly, a war drum sounded from behind the bronze door. Each of its beats was like a strike in their hearts.

The Immortal Cooking Realm experts fell silent.

Today’s Immortal Cooking Realm was no longer the same small world that was bullied by others. After a short period of development, its experts had cultivated their own spirits, though it was still insignificant in the face of true power.

Buzz…

Sharp sword energy ripped the sky apart as two Great Saints broke through the barrier and came out of the bronze door, sweeping the realm with cold eyes. Accompanied by deafening cries and shouts, the experts of the Sword Demon Clan rushed through the barrier into the Immortal Cooking Realm with crazy killing intent.

All of a sudden, a small hut exploded, and a beam of light shot out of it into the sky. Realm Lord Di Tai had come out of seclusion. His golden hair waved in the wind, and his deep eyes seemed to glow with bright light. His naked body was shrouded in golden light, and his aura shook the skies.

At this moment, the Immortal Tree’s branches came and wrapped him up. There seemed to be a world flashing in Realm Lord Di Tai’s eyes as his cultivation base rose higher and higher until it broke the Little Saint barrier and stepped into the Great Saint Realm.

There was a sad look in his eyes. Nether Prison’s pressure made him feel the crisis, so he chose to fuse himself with the freshly awakened Immortal Cooking Realm’s Will of the Great Path. It made his cultivation base step into the Great Saint Realm, but by doing so, he had also cut off his road to the higher levels. His strength was fixed forever. However, to get the realm through the approaching crisis, he didn’t regret it.

Buzz…

The equipment of the Divine Chef, including a kitchen knife, a black wok, a spatula, and an iron bowl, appeared and hovered around him. Then, Realm Lord Di Tai took a step forward and rushed toward the battlefield in the fifth layer.

“Bastards of Nether Prison, your Realm Lord Di Tai is back again!”

…

In Earth Prison, a sword light flashed in midair and ripped the void apart. An old man in gray robes came walking out of the rift, his eyes seemingly flickering with sword intent. He lifted a hand. In the palm, a tiny gray sword was wheeling slowly. While toying with the tiny sword, the old man looked up into the distance.

“The wine that can help a Great Saint break through… What a familiar feeling. Is he the inheritor of that man? No matter who he is, as long as he is related to that man, he must die. No information about that man should appear in the Netherworld again.” The gray-robed old man’s voice was soft, but it exploded in midair like thunder.

…

In God Vanishing Mountain, a white-robed woman narrowed her eyes as a sharp look flashed through them.

In the Cave of the Fallen Gods, the golden skeleton sat cross-legged down with blood-colored ghostly fire dancing in its eye sockets.

In the Black Temple, bandages fell as the air rang with the sound of steady breathing.

…

In the Yellow Spring Little Restaurant…

Yellow Spring Great Sage, who was chatting with Bu Fang, suddenly gave a surprised ‘oh’ and turned his head, while Prison Overlord Ying Long, who was leaning on the Hollow Eye Staff, opened his cloudy eyes.

At the same time, Lord Dog, lying under the Path-understanding Tree, yawned and said, “It seems that Nether Prison cannot hold back any longer.”
