Chapter 1677: So What if Heaven Is Jealous?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was an apocalyptic scene. The purple-black lightning tribulation seemed to be an aura of death blowing from the depths of the universe, bringing with it very terrible energy.

The lightning tribulation was not the whole of this Heavengod Tribulation—it was only part of it. Purple lightning, purple fire, and purple wind kept blowing from the depths of the universe as if to annihilate everything.

No one dared to breathe too loudly. Fortunately, this lightning tribulation would not affect the great world, or the Netherworld and the Immortal Cooking Realm could be reduced to ruins by it.

Its power was so terrifying that it was as if a real Heavengod had descended and was about to eliminate everything. In the Chaotic Universe, it was very difficult for an individual to become a Heavengod. Such a tribulation was not what a God Emperor could withstand as every bolt of lightning was like the attack of a Heavengod.

Bu Fang was laughing. Of course, he just opened his mouth and laughed, but his cheeks did not move at all. He felt that he should be laughing at this moment. After all, it was more dignified to transcend a tribulation with high spirits than to remain silent.

Later, if someone asked, people would be able to say that when he was transcending the tribulation, he only laughed three times and the tribulation was gone. It was better than saying, “When Heavengod Bu was transcending his tribulation, he wore a paralyzed face and remained silent. He was struck by three thousand bolts of lightning and almost got himself killed before he transcended the tribulation...”

However, in the opinion of many people, Bu Fang was better off not laughing.

Rumble!

Thousands of lightning soldiers rushed out from the palaces on the thunderclouds, shrouded by purple-black lightning with power enough to destroy the world. However, Bu Fang was undaunted. His spirits were high.

Suddenly, a lightning spear came down and struck Bu Fang hard, then in the blink of an eye, he was engulfed by countless purple-black thunderbolts. A crackling sound filled the air as the lightning bolts collided with each other, while the whole world became extremely bright.

Everyone was stunned. Was it over before it even started? This Heavengod Tribulation was indeed terrifying!

Mu Hongzi was also struck dumb. ‘Bu Fang couldn’t have failed so quickly, could he?’ And sure enough, just as the thought came to him, Bu Fang moved!

He puffed out his chest and instantly broke free from the thrall of countless lightning bolts. The next moment, the lightning soldiers all rushed at him with their weapons in hand and dragged him into a fierce battle.

Each of these soldiers was equal to a top God King, and they were only the lowest-rank soldiers. Those soldiers with mounts were equal to God Emperors. It was a shocking lineup. No wonder the Heavengod Tribulation was also called the Apocalyptic Thunder Tribulation. Its power was simply too terrifying!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Bu Fang held the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife in his hand and fought those lightning soldiers. Who said a chef could not fight? A kitchen knife was also a knife, and it could kill.

With a slash, a lightning soldier was hacked in half, simple and brutal. Bu Fang did not use any divine power or knife techniques. To deal with the foes, he simply hacked them with his kitchen knife, smashed them with the black wok, and slapped them with the ladle.

One soldier after another was beheaded, smashed on the body, and crushed in the chest. They disintegrated, turned into purple lightning, and darted away.

Unfortunately, when a soldier was killed, another took his place, then more and more soldiers came pushing over from the back until they completely engulfed Bu Fang. It was a sea of probably over ten thousand lightning soldiers. It was terrifying just to think that Bu Fang was facing so many soldiers alone!

The crowd fell silent as they looked at Bu Fang, who seemed to be drowned by the sea of lighting and was struggling. The slightest outflow of the power of this tribulation would be enough to send them to their graves, and yet Bu Fang was fearlessly swimming in it. It was incredible.

Realm Lord Di Tai and Nether King Tian Cang both fell silent. Unknowingly to them, Bu Fang had grown to such an extent. How long had it been? It turned out that such a genius really did exist in this world!

Mu Hongzi’s eyes were filled with wonder. Perhaps only him, who was once a host of the System, could understand how amazing Bu Fang was. Even among all the previous hosts, Bu Fang’s excellence was hard to conceal.

He thought that perhaps this junior with a paralyzed face could really create a miracle, reach a height that he could never reach, and complete something that was the dream of many chefs! However, before Bu Fang achieved that, he needed to transcend this Heavengod Tribulation!

Rumble!

Bu Fang kept retreating under the attack, but whenever he thrust his kitchen knife, he destroyed a lightning soldier. The battle lasted three days and three nights. The whole Great Netherworld was filled with the rumbling sound of thunder, and the starry sky at night was brighter than the day!

The Xiayi Divine Emperor, Xiao Yanyu, and the Titan Crown Prince had all arrived. How could they not be attracted by such fluctuations? This was a Heavengod Tribulation, which only appeared once for who knew how many years and could only be attracted by individuals with extraordinary talent!

Bu Fang had hacked a way through the sea of lightning soldiers. In the distance, a general riding on a winged dragon and holding a spear fixed his lightning eyes on him. Laughing expressionlessly, he charged toward the general.

Even then, the winged dragon flapped its wings and sped toward him like a bolt of lightning. The next moment, the spear flew past his kitchen knife and stabbed his robe, piercing his body with a ripping sound.

Bu Fang moved back several steps as a tremendous force impacted him, crushing the thunderclouds with every step. When he finally stabilized himself, his eyes were cold.

The road was very difficult to walk, but he would kill anyone who stopped him! With a shrill whistle, the kitchen knife fell and broke the lightning spear. However, half of it was still inside him. Then, he lifted the black wok and smashed the general and the winged dragon into a mass of tiny lightning bolts.

Suddenly, more lightning bolts shot toward him. In the distance, the soldiers parted, revealing dozens of generals riding on winged dragons. The aura of each of these generals was extremely powerful.

The battle broke out in an instant. Bu Fang fought the generals fiercely. Lightning spears kept stabbing into his body, causing his blood to spill and stain the Vermilion Robe, while twitching purple lightning arcs tried to numb him. However, his surging blood and energy easily dispelled the numbness they brought him.

Bu Fang shook his head and took a deep breath. His body was stabbed with countless lightning spears...

‘Keep it up, Host! You can do it! As a man who wants to be the God of Cooking and stands at the peak of the starry sky, you have to defeat them all!’

The System’s energetic cheering rang out in his head. The corner of his mouth twitched. He still preferred the serious System. At least it was not so noisy.

Boom!

Bu Fang shook his body, breaking all the lightning spears that were on him. He had barely taken a breather when countless soldiers charged at him and surrounded him once again. He roared, and immediately, the Golden Dragon, the Vermilion Bird, the Black Turtle, the White Tiger, and the Qilin rushed out from behind him and began to kill the soldiers.

With the help of the Artifact Spirits, he felt much pressure was relieved from him. Even then, purple flames spread, emanating a scorching heat that caused the void to twist.

Bu Fang focused his eyes and snapped his fingers. The crimson divine flame emerged in an instant. This was the divine flame that had fused with the primordial fire of mankind. The moment it appeared, it suppressed the purple flames and even devoured them like a greedy monster. Perhaps even the Heavengod Tribulation did not expect this.

Since the flames did not work, the wind was unleashed. The purple wind came blowing over at great speed. It was like the wind that blew out from the depths of the starry sky, which could separate the flesh from the bones! This was the Wind of Obliteration, an element that could disintegrate souls!

In the face of such a horrible wind, Bu Fang was undaunted—he pressed on. The Vermilion Robe fluttered as the wind blew at it.

The five Artifact Spirits were still fighting, and they had destroyed countless lightning soldiers. Bu Fang felt that the connection between him and them was becoming stronger and stronger.

Fighting side by side with them made his understanding of the God of Cooking Sets grow deeper and deeper. This might be an improvement in his comprehension on a spiritual level...

A Wheel of Law emerged over the thundercloud. This was the manifestation of the Law of the Universe. The Power of Law emanated from it and projected into the thundercloud, and soon five figures appeared. Clad in lightning armor and surrounded by lightning bolts, they represented the five supreme Laws of the Universe.

Mu Hongzi, the Xiayi Divine Emperor, and the others all frowned.

“This Heavengod Tribulation is a little bit... strange! It is giving Owner Bu too much trouble!” the Divine Emperor said in a serious voice. As someone who had transcended a Heavengod Tribulation, he knew it very well.

No matter how terrible the Heavengod Tribulation was, it should not have so many different kinds of tribulation! First, he was attacked by tens of thousands of lightning soldiers, then lightning generals as strong as God Emperors. And now, even lightning commanders who were the supreme Laws of the Universe had appeared!

The Apocalyptic Lightning Bolts, the Wing of Obliteration, the Fire of Doom... These were all the most terrible cosmic energies! Fortunately, it was Bu Fang who faced them. If it were another person, he would have fallen now, even if he was a top God Emperor.

Even an ordinary Saint of the Great Path might not be able to withstand this kind of power.

“A lightning tribulation of this level... Could it be that someone is making things difficult for Owner Bu? Someone doesn’t want him to break through?” Everyone shared the same thought.

Mu Hongzi was frowning. He found that the Xiayi Divine Emperor had a point. Even though Bu Fang had the System and was someone with good fortune, he should not have encountered a lightning tribulation of this magnitude. It simply did not want him to live.

The aura of the lightning commanders transformed from the five supreme Laws of the Universe was extremely terrifying. It was almost comparable to that of Soul Thirteen or an ordinary Saint of the Great Path.

It was very difficult for Bu Fang to deal with existences of this level with his current condition. However, he did not back off. Carrying the wok and holding the knife, he laughed and charged out again without saying a word, fighting the five lightning generals.

The power of his five supreme Laws of the Universe spread out from time to time, and he was fighting fiercely.

Xiayi Divine Emperor and the others had to admit that Bu Fang was really strong. The weak chef they knew in the past had grown into someone who stood at the peak of this world. His strength was no weaker than that of a Heavengod!

...

Bu Fang opened his mouth and coughed out some blood. The Vermilion Robe was in tatters, but it kept restoring by itself. His body was charred by the lightning bolts, but he did not retreat.

Of the five lightning commanders who represented the five supreme Laws of the Universe, he had destroyed two. There were only three of them left now.

These commanders did not have emotion—all they knew was to attack. Each of their blows was deadly, and they were experts in using the supreme Laws of the Universe. As a result, Bu Fang was in a wretched state. His energy was extremely weak and on the verge of fully drained.

The surrounding lightning soldiers had all been destroyed, and the Artifact Spirits had returned to his spirit sea.

The sound of him gasping for breath lingered in everyone’s ears. All the people were watching him in silence.

Bu Fang shook his head. The next moment, with a flip of his hand, food ingredients flew out. As the lightning bolts kept striking him, he began to cook.

Soon, the oil began to bubble in the wok, and the ingredients flew up into the air. The Qilin Transmigration Ladle spun in Bu Fang’s hand. Although he looked extremely wretched now, when it came to cooking, his face beamed.

The ingredients fell into the ladle. Bu Fang poured the milky white batter, covering them completely. As the oil bubbled and spat in the wok, filling the air with a sizzling sound, Bu Fang inserted the ladle into it. The ingredients immediately tumbled.

Pak! Pak! Pak!

Bu Fang slapped the wok, and one by one, oyster pancakes flashing with lightning jumped up into the air. He grabbed them and stuffed them into his mouth.

Because of where he cooked them, these oyster pancakes all contained lightning. As soon as he ate them, he felt as if his body was cleansed. His blood and energy began to boil again, and his spirit refreshed. Then, he charged toward the two lightning commanders.

Although they attacked him with the Law of Time, the Law of Space, and the Law of Transmigration, they could not stop him. Finally, he destroyed all three of them with the Black Turtle Constellation Wok!

Bu Fang roared. At this point, he had destroyed all the lightning soldiers, generals, and commanders! The Heaven Tribulation was considered completely over.

So what if he was envied by heaven? Bu Fang had proven with his actions that a black wok could also break the vault of heaven!

The thunderclouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the palaces seemed to be disappearing. The Heavengod Tribulation was finally over.

In the distance, the pounding hearts of all finally settled down. A smile spread across Mu Hongzi’s stunning face, while Xiayi Divine Emperor had a complicated look in his eyes.

Suddenly, someone froze. Even Bu Fang, with the corners of his mouth curled upward slightly, furrowed his brows. Holding the black wok, he looked up at the sky.

There, in the starry sky, the center of the dissipating thundercloud slowly spun and turned into a huge whirlpool, and a majestic figure could be seen looming inside.

Rumble!

A terrible aura spread in an instant, startling the Xiayi Divine Emperor and the others.

“This... This is a Heavengod!” The Divine Emperor’s pupils constricted as he sucked in a cold breath.

Bu Fang squinted at the Heavengod, who stood in the whirlpool with a straight face.

The next moment, the mighty existence slowly stretched out his hand. A tremendous amount of energy gathered in the starry sky and turned into a palm. Then, it flew straight toward Bu Fang!
