Gourmet of Another World Chapter 1422 A New Record! An Outstanding Chef!

The young man had activated the first seal’s task, which had beaten countless Divine Chefs, including Earth Divine Chefs. Among the many Divine Chefs here, none could solve it. Could he do it this time?

In fact, no one thought he could. He was just a Demigod. In other words, he was a Spirit Divine Chef. Of all the Divine Chefs present, most of them were on the same level as him, and they could not even properly process the first food ingredient.

The Kitchen Knife of Affliction was a very powerful knife technique, but it was too difficult to control.

Gradually, the golden characters in Bu Fang’s eyes faded away. He finally had a clear understanding of the task. It was actually quite similar to the tasks provided by the System. Of course, it was much tougher.

With a thought, the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife fell into his grip. A deafening dragon roar rang out of it, causing everyone’s pupils to constrict.

“This kitchen knife is… out of the ordinary!”

“I can’t identify the level of this kitchen knife!”

“What? A Spirit Divine Chef like him can control a kitchen knife of this level?!” 

The people around Bu Fang were all Divine Chefs with keen eyes, and they knew kitchen knives very well. As soon as the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife made its appearance, its sharpness and aura instantly made them suck in their breaths. They reckoned that its level was not weaker than the kitchen knives owned by the few Earth Divine Chefs!

“The first food ingredient is white radish. I have to make nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cuts on its surface with the Kitchen Knife of Affliction. Every gap between the cuts must be identical, and so are the depths. On top of that, I can’t damage the inside of the radish…”

Bu Fang took a deep breath. The task sounded simple, but it was actually extremely difficult. Not only was he needed to make cuts with identical gaps and depths, but he also needed to carve out a complete pattern. This was a very strict test for his knife technique!

It would be almost impossible for an average Divine Chef to complete it in one go. Perhaps only those who had immersed themselves in knife techniques for years could have done it. Besides, he was only given a limited amount of time. He must complete it within half an hour. This certainly made the task more difficult!

Bu Fang focused his eyes and calmed himself down. With one hand holding the kitchen knife and the other pressing on the jade-like radish, he was ready to start processing it.

The Kitchen Knife of Affliction was a very powerful name. He carefully went through the knife technique once again.

Bu Fang was expressionless. Whenever he entered the state of cooking, he would become very cold and indifferent. He flicked his fingers, and the radish floated up and hovered in midair. Holding the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife firmly, he began to move.

What he used was the Kitchen Knife of Affliction. He made a slash, and for a moment, he seemed to have created countless slashes. Numerous shadows filled the eyes of those who were looking at him.

As the kitchen knife touched the food ingredient, fine cuts began to emerge on its surface. The task did not specify what pattern he should carve on the radish, but the pattern would surely affect the knife technique.

Everyone held their breath and stared fixedly at the array. There was a number over it, which showed the number of cuts Bu Fang had made. It was jumping rapidly!

“One, ten, fifteen, thirty…”

The increment of the number was irregular, but it was extremely fast. Any number added to the counter represented an effective cut, and as long as it reached nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, Bu Fang would complete the first step of the task.

Slash! Slash! Slash! 

Bu Fang was very calm. Whenever he made a slash, a thousand shadows appeared, followed by countless knives. Tiny pieces of radish flew in all directions, attracting the eyes of all.

“He’s… so fast!”

“This is amazing! I can’t believe his control of the knife technique has reached such a skillful level in such a short time!”

“By the looks of it, the first step of the task is not going to stop him!”

The nearby Divine Chefs were all shocked. It was the first time they saw someone handle the knife technique so skillfully. On top of that, as Bu Fang made the cuts, waves of pressure emerged around him. The pressure was different from the divine pressure of a God—it was the result of the stacking of the knife technique. The more cuts he made, the stronger the pressure.

The number kept jumping and had gone over one thousand! At this moment, only five breaths had passed!

Luo Sanniang watched intently, and blue veins could be seen popping up on the back of her fair hand as she squeezed the railing tightly. It was clear that she was very anxious.

“Two thousand!” one of the Divine Chefs cried out.

At this moment, all eyes were on Bu Fang. Every Divine Chef would be very serious when they face this task because once they failed, they would suffer damage to their divine senses, and it would take at least half a year to recover. Moreover, if they were wounded too many times, their divine senses would be permanently damaged. Therefore, no one dared to take up the challenge without proper preparation.

“Five thousand! He’s getting faster and faster, and his slashes are getting steadier and steadier!”

“So strong! He’s so fast!”

“If my memory serves me well, the record of the first food ingredient is set by an Earth Divine Chef, isn’t it? I think it was Master Cheng. But it had taken him thirty breaths to do that!”

…

The Divine Chefs were astonished. In their eyes, Bu Fang’s speed was getting faster and faster. They felt that a new record was about to be born.

Bu Fang’s divine sense had become highly focused, and all that was left in his eyes was the flying kitchen knife. The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife kept humming and flashing goldenly, while thousands of knives emerged and gathered around him.

He was frowning, though. ‘It’s not fast enough!’ he thought. ‘This Kitchen Knife of Affliction can be even faster… It seems that I’m still not very familiar with it…’

Bu Fang was right. If he had mastered it, he could have made nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cuts and compacted the pressure to the maximum level with just one slash. The knife technique was as powerful as a divine power!

It was worth noting that only Gods who comprehended the supreme Laws of the Universe could possess divine powers. For example, Lord Dog had learned the Time Stopping, which was a terrible ability that could slow down time.

Bu Fang was holding his breath. He did not dare to even exhale, for he feared that it would mess up his movements and ruin all the effort he had put in.

A humming sound could be heard as the shadow of a dragon appeared behind him. It was the vision caused by the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife when it was used to its maximum. The dragon wheeled in midair, looking like a True Dragon descending from heaven.

“Eight thousand!” someone shouted, and the air rang to the sound of people sucking in their breaths.

Luo Sanniang’s pupils constricted. ‘Is he going to make it?’ she thought as a surprised look came over her face.

All the people fixed their eyes at the counter and watched as the number kept jumping. Finally, it went over nine thousand!

Nine thousand one hundred.

Nine thousand two hundred.

Nine thousand three hundred! 

The crowd could see heat rise from Bu Fang’s body in shimmering waves. It was as though he was about to evaporate. Even then, the pressure shrouding him was so dense that it almost took a physical form, and it was so mighty that Luo Sanniang, who was a mid-grade God, felt her heart tremble.

Suddenly, everyone froze and stopped talking because the number over the array had reached nine thousand nine hundred and ninety.

Bu Fang’s movements never stopped. He made another slash, which was accompanied by countless shadows. Then, his eyes lit up, and the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife spun in his hand before he held it firmly again!

Rumble! 

At this moment, the pressure he had been holding down for a long time finally exploded. It swept out in all directions, causing the nearby Divine Chefs to step back uncontrollably. The Spirit Divine Chefs knelt on the ground, while the knees of Earth Divine Chefs bent slightly as the overwhelming pressure suppressed them and rendered them motionless.

Crack! 

The railing was finally broken by Luo Sanniang. Her eyes had gone wide as plates, filled with disbelief.

‘Twenty breaths! It took him only twenty breaths to complete the first food ingredient! It’s ten breaths less than the record set by Master Cheng! What a monster! A monster in cooking! He’s a Spirit Divine Chef with a great future!’

At this moment, she realized Bu Fang’s worth and prestige!

“Mister…” Luo Sanniang cried out. However, no sooner had her voice left her mouth than her pupils constricted once again!

The crowd exploded into an uproar as well because they saw Bu Fang shake his hand, and then the tender tofu immediately drifted over and fell onto his palm!

Before they could see what pattern he had carved out on the radish with nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cuts, he had already proceeded to the second food ingredient!

Why didn’t he stop for a while and rest? They knew that after he completed the first step, he could pause to recover his divine sense. However, Bu Fang did not choose to rest. Instead, he went on to process the second food ingredient!

Was this little chef losing his mind?!
