Chapter 720 - Open-air Buffet, Portal to the Third Dimension

Chapter 720: Open-air Buffet, Portal to the Third Dimension

“These game animals seem extremely irascible. They most probably sense that their deaths are near. I better put them out of their misery quickly,” muttered Li Nianfan to himself. He called Xiao Bai over to do the deed.

“Brother Li, have you decided on the party’s location?” asked Nanan curiously.

He thought it over and said, “We’ll have it at the foot of the mountain. It’s more convenient that way.”

“What are we going to have? I want to eat hotpot!” said Dragin, drooling.

“Let’s have a hotpot and a barbeque buffet then. You can cook the food yourself, isn’t that interesting?” Li Nianfan laughed before he said, “But we’ll need more tables and chairs.”

“Brother Li, I have an idea. I’ll go ask Jiang Liu to chop more wood and make them into tables and chairs,” said Nanan.

Li Nianfan nodded. “Great idea. By the way, go to the Heavenly Palace to ask the Food God to come over and help us prepare the ingredients.”

“On it!” Nanan and Dragin rushed out excitedly.

Li Nianfan started to check the food stock in their home. There was enough meat, vegetables, and fruits. However, the most crucial ingredient would be the sauces, for they were the essence of a buffet. Then, they would need to skewer the meat, vegetables, and fruits which was tedious and cumbersome work.

At that moment, the Heavenly Palace had been looking forward to news from Li Nianfan and their eyes immediately lit up when they saw Nanan and Dragin.

“Goddesses, what did the expert say?”

“Brother Li’s indeed preparing for a party but there weren’t enough tables and chairs so we asked Jiang Liu to chop more wood,” said Nanan.

The Jade Emperor was aghast and quickly said, “We couldn’t possibly let the expert’s personal woodcutter do such a thing. Yang Jing, Juling Shen, quickly bring some people over to help with the wood chopping and furniture making!”

Then, he turned back to Nanan and Dragin to ask, “Does the expert have any other orders?”

“Brother Li requested for the Food God to go over and help out. The workload’s bigger this time and we need all the help we can get,” said Dragin.

“Of course, of course. Food God will be there immediately,” said Jade Emperor.

“We’ll notify all the other powerhouses,” said Cultivator Junjun.

Soon, following the invitation from the Heavenly Palace, powerhouses such as the Empath Sect, Hundred Flower Sect, and more arrived at the foot of the Fallen Immortal Mountain and began to…chop wood with Jiang Liu.

The entire foot of the mountain was transformed into a lively place as each of them wielded their weapon in a gung-ho manner to chop down the trees.

“Wow, it’s hard to tell but the trees here are really tough! It’s as tough as any divine weapon.”

“Obviously, this is because they’ve been basking in the expert’s glow. He’s so awesome that a little of his light is enough to make all the trees here become extraordinary.”

“Wow, I’m so amazed. We’ve certainly been tasked with a difficult mission. Let’s work harder everyone! We need to make sure all the wood is chopped before the expert comes!”

“This is obviously a test from the expert. I’ll burn all my mana if it means getting things done!”

“Dao skill, Sky Cutting Wood Chopping Technique!”

“Brother Jiang Liu, I used to think that your talent was wasted in chopping wood but it seems like I’ve been proven wrong.”

“You’re definitely very strong to be the expert’s personal woodcutter.”

Thanks to the unremitting efforts of many mighty men, the tables and chairs were finally arranged as the afterglow of the setting sun started to fill the sky. For example, the Jade Emperor and others, the hardest working ones, were even tired and paralyzed. They really expended all their life force to chop the wood.

Just as everyone was taking a breather, the sound of footsteps came from higher up the mountain. Then, they saw Li Nianfan, Daji, and others walking down, pulling a huge ice sculpture car with a lot of food on it behind them.

“Hello, hello! You’re all here early,” said Li Nianfan with a smile when he saw all the familiar faces.

“Greetings, Lord Saint,” said everyone immediately with a salute.

Li Nianfan glanced at the tables and chairs and his lips began to twitch. ‘It’s obvious they haven’t done any work in their lives. These tables and chairs look…really unique. Oh well, even though they’re a little deformed, they’re still usable.’

“Are you all ready? We’re having a self-service buffet today!” said Li Nianfan with a smile.

“Self-service buffet? What’s that?” asked the Jade Emperor quizzically.

“You can choose whatever you want to eat and cook it in the hotpot or barbeque it. It’s very simple. Food God, it’s showtime for you!” said Li Nianfan, still smiling.

The Food God had received Li Nianfan’s orders before, so he and Xiao Bai and the others would do the rest. He stepped forward and said, “Listen to me, the first thing we serve is the sauce, which includes sesame sauce, sesame oil, green onion, coriander, mushroom sauce, spicy sauce… Each sauce has a different taste, you can mix it as you like. In addition to sauces, you can come to me for any vegetables you want to eat. At the same time, there are various types of meat rolls, meat skewers, and more. The hotpot and the grill have also been prepared for you. There’s one set for each table. You’ll need to line up to get it from me.”

Soon, everyone lined up in an orderly manner and received their items. Then, they started the fire and began choosing the dishes they wanted to eat. One look and they were immediately dazzled by all the vegetables and fruits that were arranged nicely on the plates in front of them. The ingredients were even glowing and radiating with a mysterious aura, making everyone feel like they were in a dream.

‘Oh my god, so many Chaos Spiritual Roots to choose from! I’m not dreaming, am I?’

‘No, those aren’t simply Chaos Spiritual Roots now. The aura of these fruits and vegetables is actually affecting the surrounding time and space, allowing Wisdom to flow around them. They clearly contain a trace of Origins aura in them!’

‘Well, color me awe-struck!’

This was more than anyone could handle and they did not know what to call the improved Spiritual Root.

“That’s why the expert built that manure pit, so that these Spiritual Roots can evolve! How did he ever come up with an idea like this?!”

The fruit and vegetables there, no, to be more accurate, even a piece of the leafy vegetable would have sparked a war between all the Wisdom Elites. Therefore, everyone found it hard to believe that they could freely choose any of the ingredients there. How could they ever choose? What an extravagant feast! The expert must be testing their ability to take the pressure.

In addition to these Spiritual Roots, there were also huge demon corpses. Among them, five Wisdom Elites were waiting peacefully for the guests to eat them. Everyone was feeling extremely grateful that they were friends with the expert to be able to enjoy such a feast!

The Food God’s inner peace was also wavering as he was chopping up the Wisdom Elites’ flesh. He could not believe he was personally making an existence he had always aspired to be into meat rolls.

“I can only blame myself for having such narrow views. So what if they were Wisdom Elites? To the expert, they’re nothing but game meat. I’ll need to think like the expert. These are just game meat, these are just game meat, these are just…”

Suddenly, the Jade Emperor walked over and coughed lightly. “Food God, is there any lamb p*nis?” he asked in a low voice.

“There’s none left. The people from the Empath Sect took them all away,” said Food God with a shake of his head.

“Those dogs! They should change their name to the H*rny Sect!” The Jade Emperor was furious but then begrudgingly asked, “Then, are there any lamb kidneys left?”

“There’s still some left,” said Food God.

“Quick, give me all of them!” said the Jade Emperor quickly.

Everyone was enjoying themselves. By then, the soup was simmering inside the hot pot, giving off bursts of white smoke while sparks flew around the grill as the oil rolled off the meat.

“Ah, so this is what self-service means. What an interesting way to have a meal.”

“Quick! Flip over that piece of meat. It’s getting burnt!”

“Isn’t Juling Shen being a little greedy? There’s no way he can finish all that!”

“Gah! Those people from the Empath Sect’s taken all the demons’ p*nis! What assholes.”

“Oh my god, this is so good!”

Gradually, bursts of fragrance floated into the air, shocking everyone’s spirits. Immediately, a battle for food began, and only those with quick hands could get the first bite. Yang Jing’s third eye was opened wide and he did not hide his three heads and six arms. When the meat rolls in the hotpot were cooked, he was the first to notice, and he used his arms to scoop them out of the pot.

Xiao Chengfeng’s expression changed. “Yang Jing, you’re too much. This is cheating!”

“Remind me not to sit at the same table as him next time! This guy’s born to steal food!” said Ye Liuyun.

“C’mon, I only took the first bite. It’s not like there ain’t more.” Yang Jin grinned before he dipped the meat rolls into the sauce he had prepared and put them into his mouth. He was shocked when he felt immeasurable Wisdom with a hint of Origins aura rolling around in his mouth.

At that very moment, it was as if he had arrived in a strange world where a moment was equivalent to 10,000 years. In that 10,000 years, he had comprehended many new things about Wisdom, which, in turn, increased his Power of Wisdom. Originally, he was already a half-step to being a Wisdom Elite, but now, he had taken another step forward. He had a feeling that as long as he ate a few more pieces of meat, he could become a true Wisdom Elite.

Everyone had started eating, too. What followed was a great circulation of Wisdom between Heaven and earth. The Origins aura around them became stronger and stronger, surrounding everyone, making it a strange space, the most terrifying secret border in the entire world. To everyone’s shock, they discovered their powers had advanced by leaps and bounds.

Li Nianfan was at the same table with Daji and the others and he was grilling the food with practiced movements.

“Here are the chicken wings you’ve ordered,” said Li Nianfan to Nanan.

“Wow! Thanks, Brother Li!” said Nanan who immediately bit into the chicken wings.

“Master, is the barbeque sausage ready? I want to eat it,” said Qin Manyun with anticipation.

“Me, too!” said Shi Tuqin quickly.

“I’ve made too little sausage this time so eat them sparingly. I’ll make more for you all next time,” said Li Nianfan helplessly.

“I want thick kinds!” said Shi Tuqin.

Blackie was wagging his tail and rubbing his head against Li Nianfan. “Master, Master, I want to eat some, too,” he said eagerly.

“Silly dog, of course, there’s some for you.” Li Nianfan smiled and threw him a large steak which he immediately pounced on and bit into it.

After the last battle, Blackie deeply realized that his own power was lacking. In grief and anger, he swore to himself that he would eat more and train harder to better protect Li Nianfan.

Meanwhile, in the Chaos, Gu Debai, Yun Qianshan, and others had already arrived at the center where the tremor came from. In front of them was a bottomless black hole and around it was the aura of endless ruin and destruction. Even Wisdom and Origins would be devoured into nothingness there. It was as if it was a portal to an extremely terrifying place.

Gu Lie’s eyes narrowed suddenly with shock. “The power of time and space is distorted. This must be a portal to another dimension!”

“Where does this portal lead? Why did it suddenly appear here?” asked Yun Qianshan with a thick voice. He glanced at Gu Debai and from the looks of the expression on his face, he seemed to know something.

“Would you dare enter if I told you a world where both opportunity and destruction are in abundance lies on the other side?” asked Gu Debai with a smirk.

“So, you do know what lies on the other side!” said Yun Qianshan with surprise.

Gu Debai’s eyes flickered as his voice trembled from excitement, “Among the seven dimensions, the only dimension that could possess such a strong destructive aura’s the third dimension!”

“The third dimension?!” Gu Lie, Yun Qianshan, and Lord Angel opened their eyes wide in disbelief.

“How’s this possible? It’s rumored that the third dimension has already separated from the seven dimensions. Why would a portal open up here?” asked Yun Qianshan doubtfully.

In the beginning, the third dimension was broken and its Origins manifested. It widened the portal, attracting many powerful men to seek its Origins there. However, no one thought that the portal to the third dimension would be shattered overnight. Since then, the connection between the third dimension and the seven dimensions had been completely broken, making it impossible for anyone to travel to or from the third dimension.

“I don’t need to tell you about the immense benefits of going to the third dimension since it’s apparent that the Origins are abundant there. However, one would need to face the risk of being trapped there forever should the portal become broken,” said Gu Debai.

Needless to say, the Eldritchs had tried sending their men to the third dimension before, and apart from a handful of people who came back, the rest of them were stuck there forever. Even Ancestor Eldritch could not predict that a new portal to the third dimension would suddenly appear.

“The seventh dimension’s truly a wondrous dimension full of surprises,” said Yun Qianshan.

“There are too many variables in this dimension. I can’t believe that even us Eldritchs’ plan would be foiled by them,” said Gu Debai. He was deeply impressed. The Eldritchs had their eyes on the seventh dimension ever since the last catastrophe. However, the growth of the seventh dimension far exceeded their imagination. Not to mention, the skilled fighters they had sent out one after another perished under their hands without a trace.

On the side, Lord Angel glanced at the two of them and smirked internally. ‘The two of you can’t even fathom all that’s going on in the seventh dimension now that the expert’s in control of everything. I bet that this portal has something to do with the expert. Don’t they know it’s actually the expert who’s awesome and not the seventh dimension?’
