Gourmet of Another World

In the Transmigration, he seemed to have turned invisible, and the tremendous force pulling at his soul was gone. He felt as if the chains that bound him had all broken, and his soul was free. It was as if he had really come back to life.

When he opened his eyes, his body was no longer the one he had in the past, but the perfect harmony between it and his soul made him realize that he had come back to life for real. The resurrection was not the real one by essence since he was in a puppet body, but that was more than enough.

…

Rumble…

In the sky, a pool of thunder seemed to emerge. Countless thunderbolts gathered rapidly, and among them loomed a cluster of palaces that looked somewhat mystical. They appeared like the residences of the real immortals, full of profound secrets.

It was a lightning punishment, which was attracted by the fact that Tian Cang had deceived the Transmigration. To him, however, it was more like a baptism of his rebirth.

After Tian Cang was resurrected, he released his divine will. Having broken free of the constraint the Transmigration chains had put on him, his soul had reached the same height when he was still alive. Perhaps his strength could not be improved again, but with the body meticulously crafted by Nether Puppeteer Patriarch and a formidable soul, he was not weaker than when he was at his prime.

Therefore, when he released his divine will, it rushed out of the Black Temple, and he immediately sensed everything happening outside, prompting him to make a move.

Instead of facing the lightning punishment, however, he went to help Bu Fang. The lightning punishment was nothing to him. He could transcend it easily with his body. However, he could not let anything bad happen to Bu Fang.

Bu Fang was his savior, the man who helped him deceive the Transmigration. He remembered what the little chef told him: the Longevity Noodle could help him deceive the Transmigration, but as time passed, the arrays in it would grow weaker, so he needed to eat the noodle regularly to reinforce them.

If Bu Fang died, no one would cook the noodle for him, and he would die as well. That price was not what Tian Cang could afford to pay. Anyone who had died before knew how amazing it was to be alive.

The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched as he looked at the burly figure standing in front of him. Then, he saw Tian Cang’s fist hit the young girl in the face. Her face twisted in an instant, and her skin seemed to be torn by the twisting force as she was knocked flying backward like a cannonball and smashed hard into the ground.

Boom!

The ground broke and caved in under the powerful impact, and a terrible and oppressive aura spread and filled the air.

Everyone was dumbstruck, and when they saw the face of the figure who knocked the young girl away with a punch, they all gasped. They recognized that man in an instant.

“Nether King Tian Cang!”

“He’s indeed the previous Nether King… Has he been resurrected?”

“I bet Nether Puppeteer Patriarch never thought Tian Cang would come back to life so quickly!”

The crowds burst into cheers and shouts, whether they were from Earth Prison or Nether Prison. They could not believe what they saw. Nether King Tian Cang, the peerless expert who had been dead for ten thousand years, had come back to life. Everyone sensed that a huge change was going to happen.

He had once attacked Nether Prison and struck fear in his enemies’ hearts. Now, when Nether Prison was attacking Earth Prison, he had come back to life. What did that mean? It meant something major was about to happen. Tian Cang, resurrected, would definitely assemble an army and attack Nether Prison again, and this time, he would turn the whole Nether Prison over!

Er Ha’s eyes were wide as eggs. As he stared at the familiar yet strange burly figure in the sky, his lips began to tremble. “Resurrected… Dad has finally come back to life…”

There was blood at the corner of Ice Saint’s mouth, but her eyes were bright as she fixed them at Tian Cang. Although the man was different from what she remembered, his familiar aura and overbearing attitude still made her heart flutter.

Holding Foxy in her arms, Nethery narrowed her eyes happily. She knew Bu Fang could do it.

Rumble!

The lightning punishment thundercloud still churned violently in the sky.

Tian Cang glanced over his shoulder at Bu Fang, his eyes gleaming. “Thank you,” he said. Without Bu Fang, he was likely back to the Transmigration now, suffering for eternity in that gloomy and dark place, and not knowing if he could come back again. He was very grateful.

“You don’t have to thank me… I didn’t save you without a request,” Bu Fang said with his hands clasped behind his back and with an indifferent look on his face.

That gave Tian Cang a pause, and he narrowed his eyes. “What is your request? Tell me, and I will fulfill it.” He burst out laughing.

“We’ll talk after you have solved this trouble.” Bu Fang didn’t say much to him but pointed a finger at the young girl in the distance, who had just climbed out of the pit. Tian Cang’s punch was powerful, but it was not enough to kill Nether Puppeteer Patriarch.

Now that the previous Nether King was here, Bu Fang did not have to use his last divine power liquid drop, and he finally had the time to catch some breath. He had to admit that his cultivation base was quite weak. However, it did not matter. He was a chef after all, and instead of strength, his focus was on his cooking skills.

In front of the Black Temple, Er Ha and the others sat on the ground. Nethery held Foxy in her arms. Bu Fang walked up to them, sat down beside them, and breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he looked up at the sky together with the others. At this moment, Tian Cang was the star of the show.

…

The rubble rolled as a graceful figure rose from the ruin. The girl’s face was cold, her lips pressed tightly together. She looked up at the burly figure in the sky with rage burning in her eyes.

“How dare you hit me… How dare you hit my face!” she muttered.

Her face had not suffered any injury when she fought that old whore just now, but as soon as Nether King Tian Cang appeared, he struck his first punch in her face. How could she not be angry?

“Nether King Tian Cang… Do you know how hard I have worked to collect and put together every part of your body?!” Nether Puppeteer Patriarch said in a cold voice, the twelve metal wings on her back flapping slowly.

Tian Cang crossed his arms over his chest and walked toward her.

Rumble!

The palaces over the thundercloud emerged, and thunderbolts began to fall from them, smiting at Tian Cang. However, he was not affected at all. He did not even use any tricks to resist them. He just kept walking and letting the lightning punishment strike him. Without a doubt, he was fearless with his tough flesh.

When the onlookers saw his calm face while the thunderbolts rained down at him, they all sucked in their breaths.

“How dare you talk to me like that when you have made my body into this?” Tian Cang turned his eyes and rested his gaze at the young girl. He did not appear to be surprised. It was as if he already knew Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s real identity.

“Your body is mine! You are my Heaven Nether Puppet!” Nether Puppeteer Patriarch roared madly. Her eyes were wide, but her pupils had shrunk to the size of a bean. Even then, the metal wings behind her back flapped, and she shot up into the sky in a beam of light. As she drew nearer, she increased her speed, and in the blink of an eye, she was in front of Tian Cang, thrusting a palm at him. The void cracked and was shattered by the terrible destructive power in the palm.

She was fast, but Tian Cang was faster. As her palm approached, he lightly threw his fist at it. The palm and the fist collided and halted in midair. It seemed that they were equally strong.

“You have insulted my body, and yet you sounded as if you have done nothing wrong… Since when did my body belong to you?” Tian Cang said coldly. As the lightning punishment continued to strike him, he charged and locked the girl in a fierce fight.

The fight was almost like one-sided torture. Nether Puppeteer Patriarch was formidable, but she was quickly overwhelmed by Tian Cang’s fearsome strength. The previous Nether King suppressed her in terms of fighting skills, strength, and speed.

Bam!

Another punch struck the girl in the face again, knocking her into the pit. She had just climbed out of it when a huge hand grabbed her head and pulled her out, her legs dangling in the air. Even in such a state, her eyes were still cold.

Tian Cang showed no mercy to Nether Puppeteer Patriarch, even though she was a woman with a young girl’s appearance. He had brutally beaten her, and now, he grabbed her up and kept smashing her to the ground! The previous Nether King, who had come back to life and broken free of the chains, was almost invincible!

Unwilling to admit defeat, the young girl kept struggling fiercely, but she was repeatedly suppressed by Tian Cang’s powerful blows. Soon, she began to cough blood.

Bam!

Tian Cang’s fist once again struck her face and knocked her to the ground. Her blood spilled all over the place. A huge pit was blown up, while powerful auras spread in all directions like ripples.

The thunderbolts were still pouring from the sky, smiting Tian Cang until wisps of smoke rose from his body. He looked up at the palaces over the pool of thunder. Eyes gleaming, he raised a hand and pointed at them. A clanging sound rang out as a metal plate lifted on his arm, in which scarlet energy began to gather. The next moment, an energy beam shot through the clouds and scattered the thundercloud in an instant.

The pool of thunder had disappeared, and the palaces were gone. With just one energy beam, he had destroyed the lightning punishment. Tian Cang’s domineering way of transcending the lightning punishment awed all the onlookers.

In the distance, Nether Puppeteer Patriarch struggled out of the pit. Her metal jacket was covered in cracks, her nose and mouth bled, and she no longer appeared youthful and lively. Instead, there was a venomous look in her eyes, which made her look like a resentful woman.

Sure enough, the girlish-looking Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s heart was full of resentment. She glared at Nether King Tian Cang, who stood proudly in the sky, then at Bu Fang, who sat in front of the Black Temple. The hatred in her eyes was so strong that it was about to pour out.

It had taken her a great effort and a long time to collect Tian Cang’s body and make it into the Heaven Nether Puppet, but in the end, her proud work was seized from her. Worst of all, it had brought Tian Cang back to life. How could she accept it?

In the Black Temple, the vortex was spinning, and Earth Prison Dog’s breakthrough was still going on. Nether Puppeteer Patriarch had not accomplished anything on her trip to Earth Prison. Instead, she had brought Tian Cang back to life.

Slowly, she rose to her feet. As rage boiled in her, she looked at Bu Fang, Tian Cang, and everyone else present. Then, her eyes gradually turned red, and her expression grew crazier and crazier. As the look on her face changed, her aura grew violent as well. Soon, her cracked metal jacket fell off her body.

“You forced me… I will kill all of you!” A cold, venomous voice rang out of Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s mouth, echoing throughout the place.
