Chapter 1715: The Nine-Marks Chaotic Tea Egg

It was an egg surrounded by a mighty aura, and its center seemed to burst with streams of light.

Bu Fang held it in one hand and used the other to lightly tap it a few times. Countess Xia Qiu had fended off Countess Aitang’s fury for him, which had saved him a lot of trouble.

Naturally, Countess Aitang would not dare to start a war with Countess Xia Qiu, for the latter’s strength was not weak in Void City. She was not a fool to start a war with another countess just for the sake of an egg.

Then, after the divine phoenix examined the remaining eggs and reported to her, she breathed a sigh of relief. What Bu Fang had stolen was just a dead egg. If it was a fertile egg, she would have taken it back no matter what.

But since it was just a dead egg, though it was equally precious, she did not value it too much. She had plenty of dead eggs.

Within Countess Xia Qiu’s residence, Bu Fang held the egg and came to a courtyard. Many servants turned their eyes to Bu Fang, wondering how he was going to handle the divine phoenix egg.

The countess did not let them watch. She ordered everyone to leave the courtyard, while she looked expectantly at Bu Fang. At first, she did not expect much from this dish. She just wanted to be able to feel the passion that the old man had been chasing.

However, her interest was aroused when she saw the divine phoenix egg.

Bu Fang did not pay attention to the others. He washed his hands and was ready to start cooking the tea egg.

He was going to cook a dish with the tea leaves taken from a Chaotic-Saint-level tea tree and the egg of a divine beast that was on the same level. This would be the most extravagant dish he had ever cooked, although it was only a tea egg.

He filled the Black Turtle Constellation Wok with the Spring of Life. The divine flame jumped out and darted under the wok. Scorching heat burst out of it, causing the temperature of the wok to rise in an instant. Soon, the water began to boil, bubbling noisily.

Bu Fang washed the divine phoenix egg and put it into the wok. The boiling water emanated fluctuations, which kept impacting the eggshell and worked on the content of the egg. As the water continued to boil, the egg began to spin.

Bu Fang’s mental force spread and enveloped the egg. He could see that everything inside the egg began to gradually solidify.

He cooked the egg on high heat. The water kept boiling. When the egg’s content was solidified, he turned the heat down. Three, two, one… Under his control, the crimson flames, which spun like lotus flowers, decreased to only one. The tiny lotus flower spun slowly, heating the wok gently.

During the process, not a hint of the egg’s aroma was leaked, so the process was boring and uninteresting. However, when the egg was cooked…

Bu Fang dismissed the flame, poured out the boiling water, and used cold water to wash the divine phoenix egg. Finally, undeterred by the scorching heat covering the eggshell, he reached out a hand and grabbed the egg. He did not protect his hand with divine power, which puzzled Countess Xia Qiu.

Click.

Bu Fang clenched his palm, causing the eggshell to crack. The delicious aroma of the egg burst forth in an instant, washing over him and everyone present. It was an extraordinary aroma, and his cooking method was remarkable.

‘Is he done?’ Countess Xia Qiu was somewhat stupefied as she watched. ‘This doesn’t seem difficult at all, does it?’ She could not help but feel a little disappointed. She would rather not eat an egg like this.

Was Bu Fang done? Of course not yet.

He filled the wok with the Spring of Life again, and this time, he added a variety of divine herbs.

Looking at those divine herbs, Countess Xia Qiu narrowed her eyes. Those were all unusual divine herbs, many of which were the ingredients of some top-grade pills in Void City.

These herbs were added directly into the wok. Under Bu Fang’s control, their essences kept spreading and infused the water. However, they were only supplementing ingredients. The main ingredient was the tea leaves taken from the Chaotic-Saint-level Soul Cleansing Tea Tree.

Of the three tea leaves, Bu Fang gave one to Niu Hansan so that he could carry out his hybridization experiment. As for the remaining two, he planned to use them to make this tea egg.

He folded the tea leaves and cut them in half with the kitchen knife. After that, he used a clean wok to stir-fry them. The tea leaves remained bright green and crispy after the stir-fry, but a strong aroma of tea began to waft out of them. The tea aroma was the key.

Bu Fang put the stir-fried tea leaves into the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. The tea aroma pervaded the air like a dream, while a faint glow floated over the surface of the tea broth.

Soon, the color of the broth changed. It was transparent, but after all the ingredients were added, it turned brownish red. The egg rolled inside, with the cracked part greedily sucking the broth.

The broth seeped into the egg, causing its surface, which was pure white and glowing with divine light, to slowly grow darker. It was as if its divine light was being wiped away, like a beautiful swan had turned into an ugly duckling.

Bu Fang controlled the divine flame again, causing its temperature to keep rising. Soon, the scorching heat completely enveloped the tea egg. A vortex emerged inside the wok and swallowed the egg. However, as it spun, the egg gradually reappeared at its center.

The brownish-red broth churned like the choppy sea. A tremendous amount of energy began to pour into the egg. It seemed that the tea egg was about to be ready.

At that moment, Countess Xia Qiu’s eyes lit up. She was looking forward to this tea egg. However, she did not want to be targeted by the Queen of Curses because of it.

With both hands, she performed an incantation gesture. Then, an array appeared, spinning and soaring into the sky. It was an array that could block the Queen’s probing. Such an array was extremely precious, yet she used it here so that she could eat the egg.

The array spread with a rumble and enveloped the entire Countess Residence in a flash, covering everything under it like an upside-down golden bowl. Now, no aura could leak to the outside world, and no spiritual probing could find out anything inside.

Bu Fang did not pay attention to this. He had focused all his attention on the tea egg as it was not that easy to complete the cooking of this dish.

He sat cross-legged down, facing the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. On his forehead, his mental force surged and kept pouring out. His spirit was under a powerful impact.

The tea egg was spinning. Soon, divine marks emerged on its surface. They kept spreading. One, two, three… Before long, nine divine marks appeared on the egg. They seemed to have gathered all the energy from myriad realms and worlds, which sublimated the tea egg.

A bright light illuminated the surroundings and made the ordinary-looking tea egg no longer ordinary. At the same time, a chaotic aura, which could only be emanated by a Chaotic Saint, permeated the air.

Bu Fang sat cross-legged on the ground. His eyes were closed, while a tremendous amount of energy flowed inside his spirit sea. Golden light converged as a wisp of Chaotic Energy slowly grew in his mind.

Finally, he opened his eyes. The System’s voice rang in his head, ‘Congratulations, Host. You have completed a dish that can be included in the God of Cooking’s Menu, and because of that, you have acquired a wisp of Chaotic Energy.’

The long-lost System’s voice was no longer as serious as it was in the past, but it was familiar and comforting to Bu Fang.

The Chaotic Energy brought a tremendous transformation to Bu Fang. Although it had not pushed him into the Chaotic Saint realm from the Saint of the Great Path realm, it made him one step closer to that goal.

All modern-day Heavengods were Chaotic Saints, and Bu Fang was getting closer and closer to this realm. The higher the grade of the dish he cooked, the more Chaotic Energy he could obtain. This, to him, was no doubt good news. It meant that he could improve his cultivation base by cooking higher-grade dishes.

However, at his current level, it had become extremely difficult to cook higher-grade dishes.

Bu Fang’s transformation naturally attracted Countess Xia Qiu’s attention. She never knew that cooking could increase an individual’s cultivation base.

The tea egg was done. The water in the wok had dried up, and the only things left inside were the egg, which hovered at the center, and the dregs of those divine herbs.

This egg had gathered a rich amount of essences. It included the energy of the divine egg, as well as the essence of countless divine herbs. Most importantly, it had the elegant aroma of tea. When the fragrance spread, mixed with the delicious aroma of the egg, it intoxicated many people.

Countess Xia Qiu was very familiar with the tea’s aroma because she drank it every day. However, after combining with the aroma of the egg, it became something foreign to her, so she was somewhat curious.

Rumble!

Her eyes narrowed slightly. The birth of the tea egg had attracted natural phenomena. There was lightning even in Void City. The moment these primitive tribulations of heaven and earth emerged, Countess Xia Qiu’s expression changed.

If such fluctuations attracted the Queen of Curses’ attention, everything would be over. However, perhaps it was because of the array, the tribulations left just as quickly as they came. Just when Countess Xia Qiu was startled, the lightning punishment had disappeared.

Bu Fang, sitting in the middle of the courtyard, slowly opened his eyes. At that moment, there seemed to be Chaotic Energy flowing in them.

Countess Xia Qiu was slightly startled when she saw the Chaotic Energy.

Bu Fang rose to his feet, walked up to the black wok, and took out the tea egg. It was very hot, but he did not mind. Carefully, he peeled the shell off the egg that was as large as a soccer ball.

In the distance, the huge turkey that was pinned to the ground by Whitey bristled. “A divine phoenix egg is cooked?!” It was terrified. However, Whitey’s huge palm pressed it so hard that it could not move at all.

The eggshell fell. Drops of glowing broth trickled down the surface of the egg that looked like soft jade. Bu Fang produced the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife and cut the egg into three parts, each containing a brownish-red egg white and a yolk wrapped in a glowing gray layer.

A strong aroma of egg combined with the fragrance of tea filled the air, tickling the senses of all those present.

Bu Fang took out a blue-and-white porcelain plate and placed the three portions of tea egg. He then decorated the plate with a few tea leaves fresh with dew. Finally, he turned and nodded at Countess Xia Qiu.

“The Nine-Marks Chaotic Tea Egg is… ready,” he said lightly.

With the completion of the dish, a terrible aura descended. Countess Xia Qiu’s figure flashed and appeared at Bu Fang’s side. Her eyes were filled with a serious look, and she seemed to be listening.

Bu Fang frowned. All the people inside the array were quite nervous at that moment. What made them so nervous? The Queen of Curses, of course.

Time passed. Eventually, Countess Xia Qiu breathed out a sigh of relief. The Queen did not respond. It seemed that the array had succeeded in blocking her perception.

Then, Countess Xia Qiu stared curiously and heatedly at the tea eggs in Bu Fang’s hand.
