Chapter 1849: Finale (4)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Unfortunately… the world only needs one God of Cooking.”
A faint voice resounded between heaven and earth, rumbling like the Tune of the Great Dao.
Time seemed to recede like tidewater on the old man; his aging face turned youthful again in just a flash, while the sound of a strong beating heart echoed throughout the world!
The Artifact Spirits of the God of Cooking Set hovered in front of the old man. As golden light surged, they turned into streams of light and rushed toward the God of Cooking.
The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, the Black Turtle Constellation Wok, the White Tiger Heaven Stove, the Qilin Transmigration Ladle, and the Vermilion Robe…
The Vermilion Robe on the God of Cooking presented a different look than Bu Fang’s. On Bu Fang, it was striped red-and-white, while on him, it was striped black-and-red.
With the God of Cooking Set falling into his hands, the God of Cooking slowly closed his eyes.
The striped red-and-white Vermilion Robe on Bu Fang did not disappear. However, he could feel that the Artifact Spirit inside was gone…
“You are… the God of Cooking?”
Bu Fang was not too shocked, however. He just stared indifferently at the God of Cooking, who was clad in the striped black-and-red Vermilion Robe.
“Of course…” The God of Cooking chuckled. His gaze was somewhat complicated as he looked at Bu Fang. “After hundreds of hosts, someone had finally succeeded. Although it was at the last moment of Soul God’s rebirth… However, no matter what, it finally worked,” he said.
“I should thank you… So, I will give you the opportunity to answer your questions. You must be very confused and lost now, right?”
Bu Fang took a step back and squinted at the God of Cooking. At this moment, the atmosphere was not quite right. The God of Cooking’s resurrection and what Soul God had said earlier had left him a little confused.
“If you are… the God of Cooking, then who is it that disappeared with the Queen of Curses?” Bu Fang asked. This question was the most puzzling to him.
“That’s me too… However, that one is an emotional God of Cooking,” said the God of Cooking with a deep look in his eyes.
“I’ve once chosen the Emotional Path. Unfortunately, I failed… and my fleshly body decayed. After that, I realized that the only way to truly step into the supreme realm is to take the Ruthless Path!”
The God of Cooking narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath. It was as if he was feeling the beauty of being back in the world.
“Hold on a second… I’m a little confused, so break it down for me.” Bu Fang furrowed his brows. He got a little sidetracked by the God of Cooking.
The nearby experts were holding their breath. They sensed that the new figure’s aura was so strong that it seemed somewhat frightening!
Tongtian, Yuanshi Tianzun, and the other almighty experts frowned, while Lord Dog, Nethery, and those who were close to Bu Fang became nervous. They all sensed that something was not quite right.
Soul God was drying up and growing old in a corner, and the guy in front of them, who was full of strong life force and emanating an incomparably powerful aura, was giving them a cold feeling.
He seemed like a piece of cold ice, without any emotion. Although his eyes were soulful, his gaze was cold and ruthless as he looked at everything.
“To put it simply… The God of Cooking who walked the Emotional Path and Soul God are both me, except that they are both separated from me,” the God of Cooking said with a smile.
He walked slowly forward with his hands clasped behind his back. With every step he took, his aura soared higher.
Bu Fang moved back further, frowning.
“Everything I have set up… including cultivating you, is to enable me to break through the bondage and reach the supreme realm.
“Only by breaking the old rules can a new law be created. After burying the seven emotions and cleansing the sins, my heart is truly ruthless.
“Now… The Ruthless Path is perfected.”
As the God of Cooking said that, he lifted his arms. The powerful beating of his heart created a majestic force.
Bu Fang took a deep breath. It all turned out to be the God of Cooking’s scheme. The so-called ‘prioritizing the Ruthless Path and supplementing it with the Emotional Path’ was merely a hoax.
And Soul God was not the God of Cooking’s evil thoughts, but another God of Cooking. No wonder he was suppressed countless years ago, cut into a few parts, and stripped of his heart… The heart was the real key.
At that time, Soul God had the cultivation base of an Ancestral God, but he had not yet perfected his Ruthless Path. As a result, he had a weakness, which had caused him to be sealed for countless years…
Focusing his eyes, Bu Fang suddenly stomped the ground. As a rumbling sound rang out, his body flew backward at great speed.
However, the God of Cooking only smiled and shook his head.
“The perfection I mentioned is without weaknesses. I’m not like the Primitive Universe’s Will of the Great Path who had only perfected the Ruthless Path, or Soul God who once only had the cultivation base of an Ancestral God… I’m truly perfect!
“The perfection is invincible! You can even call it as… above the Ancestral God!”
The God of Cooking grinned, slowly raised his hand, and flicked his finger.
Bu Fang was almost out of the cabin’s range when he felt a great pressure he could not resist. A rumbling sound filled the air as he was pulled back, hovering in front of the God of Cooking.
The God of Cooking became younger and younger. He had turned from a young man to a teenager, and his face had become incomparably perfect. Indeed, as he himself said, he was now truly perfect.
He gently stroked Bu Fang’s face with his hand. “I really can’t bear to do this… You are the most outstanding one selected from my hundred hosts. You are my masterpiece,” he said with a smile.
Outside the cabin, the experts were stirring.
“Dammit!”
At this moment, Tongtian and the others finally understood that everything was just a scheme by this guy in front of them.
“A grand scheme that spanned countless years? This fellow… is truly terrifying!”
Tongtian, Yuanshi Tianzun, and the other almighty experts felt cold all over.
“Unfortunately, you are walking the Emotional Path, which can never lead you to the end. It is a path that even I have failed to complete,” the God of Cooking said.
He raised his hand and gently pointed to the void with his finger. Ripples quietly spread across the air as the God of Cooking Set began to cook by themselves. Ingredients tumbled, the kitchen knife glinted, while the sound of cooking rang out.
After that, a dish that blossomed with dazzling light emerged. It was an exquisite dumpling.
The God of Cooking could cook a dish with just a thought in his mind.
Bu Fang’s pupils narrowed, his brows furrowing.
The God of Cooking was chuckling. He picked up the dumpling with a pair of chopsticks, slowly brought it to Bu Fang’s mouth, and stuffed it into his mouth.
“Is it good?” the God of Cooking asked Bu Fang.
As Bu Fang chewed the dumpling, he was stunned. It was… really delicious! Whether it was the duration and degree of heating, the handling of ingredients, or the adjustment between flavors, it was perfect. And it was more palatable than Bu Fang ever imagined…
It was perfect!
So this was the dish cooked by the God of Cooking? So this was the realm he had been looking forward to reaching?
Bu Fang’s gaze faltered slightly. For a moment, his heart began to waver, and the Emotional Path that he had always been firm on was shaking.
Rumble!
In the distance, Whitey’s mechanical eyes suddenly flashed and shone with dazzling golden light. Then, the ground exploded as it turned into a beam of golden light and rushed over.
As it neared, it clenched its huge hand into a fist and threw it toward the God of Cooking. It detected that Bu Fang was in danger, and it was here to save him.
The moment Whitey made a move, the others reacted as well.
“Dammit!” Lord Dog cursed as anger welled up in his eyes. Without hesitation, he smashed out his paw, his terrifying divine power rippling like waves!
Nethery’s eyes turned black in an instant. Her black dress fluttered, and she rushed out in a flash, charging toward the God of Cooking!
“Release Bu Fang…” Nethery said coldly. Her curse power, which was extremely pure, surged and turned into a straight black pillar before viciously smashing down!
Meanwhile, Tongtian and Yuanshi Tianzun struck out as well. They produced their divine artifacts and unleashed their monstrous magic power!
The instantaneous strike of the five perfect Chaotic Saints could be said to be the world’s greatest joint effort!
The whole place where the cabin stood instantly exploded! The Heaven and Earth Farmland shook as surging airwaves swept out in all directions, causing Niu Hansan and the others to roll across the ground.
“F*ck!” Er Ha’s face was pale and unsightly. “Did they finish him?” He raised his head. The airwaves had messed up his hair, but he had no time to pay attention to it at this moment.
He fixed his eyes at the center of the explosion in the distance. The next moment, his pupils narrowed.
The smoke and dust dissipated, revealing the situation inside. The God of Cooking stood where he was, unscathed. Even Whitey could not get within an inch of him.
“There is not even an Ancestral God among you. How are you going to save someone?”
The God of Cooking seemed a little puzzled as he looked at Nethery, Lord Dog, and the others. Then, he snapped his fingers.
A crisp snap rang out. With the God of Cooking as the center, a shockwave of energy swept out in all directions, hitting everyone in an instant.
Lord Dog’s body was impacted by the ripple. His divine power crumbled in a flash as blood spewed out of his mouth. It was the same for Tongtian and Yuanshi Tianzun. They fell to the ground and flew backward.
Nethery’s body trembled. Even her curse power could not resist it—it shattered in an instant. Her black dress fluttered as she fell to the ground.
Whitey fell hard to its knees with a thump. Its legs poked into the ground as it tried to stop its body from being knocked away. However, it could not do it. Its metal skin cracked, while the great force made it roll across the ground like a metal ball.
“You may not quite understand what the meaning of perfection is… It means without any flaws… and truly invincible.”
The God of Cooking’s striped black-and-red Vermilion Robe flapped noisily as it lifted his body into the sky.
Bu Fang sat on the ground with a dazed look in his eyes. It was as if he was caught in an infinite cycle of self-doubt. His aura was scattering like he was dying.
The God of Cooking put his hands behind his back. Looking at Bu Fang, he shook his head and clicked his tongue in a regretful manner.
“You look like me when I failed to take the Emotional Path years ago…” said the God of Cooking.
Soul God’s aging, shriveled, and gray body fell to the side, his eyes fixed on the God of Cooking in the sky.
The God of Cooking’s gaze turned and fell on Soul God. It became cold and emotionless. It was at this moment that he showed the world the real Ruthless Path.
With a flick of his finger, Soul God’s eyes froze completely. Then, his body turned into sand and disappeared.
Soul God, the greatest demon that made the Primitive Universe, the Chaotic Universe, and Void City tense for countless years had disappeared just like that.
Everyone’s emotions were somewhat complicated, but now was not the time for complicated emotions, for a more terrifying existence had been born in the world.
The God of Cooking hovered in the sky over the Heaven and Earth Farmland. His gaze slowly swept around. It was as though he had seen through all the universes with that glance.
As the God of Cooking who had perfected the Ruthless Path, he could sense the surging seven emotions and six desires in all the universes. To him, these were useless and laughable emotions.
Buzz…
He raised his hand. The God of Cooking Set soared into the sky and turned into the Artifact Spirits, roaring and crying.
Each of the Artifact Spirits seemed to have become emotionless and cold with the return of the God of Cooking and the perfection of his Ruthless Path.
Rumble!
They burst into golden light and rushed into the starry sky, converging rapidly and transforming into a colossal wheel of light.
The God of Cooking looked at the wheel of light in fascination.
“As the master of ruthlessness, I naturally want everyone in the world to indulge in ruthlessness… Without the influence of emotions, the efficiency of all things in the world will be enhanced!
“A perfect era dominated by me… is about to come!”
Rumble!
As the God of Cooking’s terrifying power poured into it, the white wheel of light grew even brighter. The next moment, dots of white light converged and turned into a plate of steaming delicacy in front of everyone.
There was a delicacy in front of every living being in the world, whether they were in a small world, a great world, a small universe, or a great universe. These dishes seemed to exude endless charm, attracting people to eat them.
They came in a variety of forms; some might be fried rice, some might be dumplings… They were materialized according to the delicacy that each person craved.
All the people could not help but eat the delicacies in front of them. They were the most delicious food they had ever eaten, the real God of Cooking’s dishes…
After finishing the dishes, their spirits were uplifted, while all their emotions disintegrated in an instant. Everyone became ruthless.
In the Heaven and Earth Farmland, Nethery, Lord Dog, Er Ha, and the others each had a dish floating in front of them. Even they could not restrain their emotions and want to eat the food.
Er Ha widened his eyes and clenched his jaws. ‘I won’t eat any food except Bu Fang young man’s spicy strip!’ he growled in his mind. What emerged in front of him was also a spicy strip.
Lord Dog’s claws were scoring the ground, while Nethery’s hair was waving messily! They all had their own persistence in fighting the temptation of the God of Cooking.
However, as countless people in the multiverse indulged in the God of Cooking’s cuisine, they would eventually succumb.
“Bu Fang…”
Nethery and Lord Dog were staring at Bu Fang, who sat blankly on the ground in the distance.
His aura was constantly dissipating, and he seemed to be on the verge of collapsing. It was a collapse caused by the shattering of something that he had been persisting with for a very long time…
Mu Hongzi gave Bu Fang a deep look as he held Summer’s hand tightly. He sighed. Both he and Summer ate the food. They did not put up too much resistance because they knew they could not resist it.
Sitting on the grass and looking at the Senseless Lotus blooming over the Immortal Tree, Mu Hongzi’s eyes gradually grew misty…
Suddenly, at the last moment before Mu Hongzi’s seven emotions and six desires vanished, a glint of light erupted from his gaze.
He saw Whitey, with cracks all over its metal skin, over the Immortal Tree. It plucked the Senseless Lotus with its huge hands!
Rumble!
Holding the Senseless Lotus, Whitey rushed toward Bu Fang at great speed like a cannonball. It was Mu Hongzi who told Whitey this. He said that the Senseless Lotus was the last hope… especially one that had been bred for so long.
Rumble!
Whitey fell to the ground. Its golden mechanical eyes flashed as it sped in Bu Fang’s direction with the Senseless Lotus in its hands.
In the sky, the God of Cooking seemed to notice it. He raised his eyebrows slightly.
“You still want to put up a desperate struggle?”
He did not think that the Senseless Lotus could help Bu Fang. “Could it help him forget his emotions and put him on the same level as me? Impossible…”
The God of Cooking shook his head. However, he did not wish to have an accident either, so he raised his hand and pointed out a finger.
In the distance, Whitey’s body froze instantly as if it was nailed to the ground. But the moment before that, its mechanical eyes flashed and it waved its arms with all its might, throwing the Senseless Lotus away.
The pure, dustless, white Senseless Lotus streaked across the air in a beautiful arc and… flew toward… Nethery!
The God of Cooking was taken aback, and so were Lord Dog and the others present.
Nethery’s black eyes flickered. Mu Hongzi, on the other hand, nodded with a complicated gaze. The next moment, he lost all his emotions, becoming cold and ruthless.
The whole world had turned ruthless, and the God of Cooking became the supreme one who controlled everything.
Nethery held the Senseless Lotus. She seemed to understand what Mu Hongzi was trying to tell her.
She focused her eyes and slapped away the God of Cooking’s dish. The next moment, blood oozed out of her palm, causing the pure white Senseless Lotus to turn scarlet in an instant.
The evil-looking lotus swayed, then it crumbled into pieces, turned into a stream of pure essence, and rushed into her mouth. It tasted a bit like the Dragon Blood Rice cooked by Bu Fang.
The atmosphere fell silent for a few seconds. Lord Dog, Er Ha, Shrimpy, Foxy, Niu Hansan, and the others all stared at Nethery.
RUMBLE!
Finally, a terrifying aura rose to the sky! It was as if a dreadful queen who had slept for millions of years had opened her eyes!
