Chapter 1798: 1798

Bu Fang agreed. That surprised Sect Leader Tongtian. He had not expected Bu Fang to agree so easily. ‘So… It’s true that we can only use food ingredients to lure a chef? In any case, it’s good that he agreed…’

Sect Leader Tongtian’s eyes were bright and filled with killing intent. He wanted to slaughter—he could no longer hold it. His four immortal swords were already thirsty and hungry! The Soul Demons’ besiege was suffocating him.

Although Bu Fang had agreed, they could not set off immediately, for this was a matter of life and death. The Sect Leader took his leave to prepare something, while Bu Fang sat down on the wall, closed his eyes, and rested his mind.

He knew this was not a simple operation. The number of Soul Demons outside Hangu Pass was certainly high, which might be over a million or even ten million. The sight of so many Soul Demons packed the field was simply creepy.

Bu Fang closed his eyes. He knew every Soul Demon was eager to kill him, but he was calm inside. Why should he be afraid? He was the Soul Demons’ nemesis! If truth be told, he was somewhat bewildered by his calm and indifferent attitude.

Whitey stood behind Bu Fang. Its purple eyes were flashing, and it raised a large palm and scratched its head.

Sun Wukong had wanted to go with them, but after he saw the field was packed with so many Soul Demons, he decided to defend Hangu Pass. Yes, he was born from a sphere of rock, but he did not think he could survive the beating of so many Soul Demons.

Sect Leader Tongtian left for one day and one night, though the passage of time could not be sensed in Hangu Pass. At last, he returned, clad in a Daoist robe and emanating an ethereal aura.

On his back, he carried four swords, each was flashing with an oppressive gleam. They were the true forms of the four Immortal Slaughtering Swords, the ultimate weapons of the Primitive Universe. Just their sharpness alone already made Bu Fang’s scalp tingle.

“Everything is ready. Let’s go,” said the Sect Leader indifferently.

In the distance, two Daoists nodded slightly to Bu Fang. One of them was Taishang Laojun, who had repelled Envy Great Soul Overlord with a palm strike. The strength of the other one was stronger. Bu Fang felt that he was not weaker than the strongest Great Soul Overlord. Apparently, he was a perfected Chaotic Saint!

Bu Fang nodded to them.

“They will defend Hangu Pass while we make our way… Don’t worry, if we are no match for the Soul Demons, there will be support at the critical moment…” Tongtian said.

His voice was thick with hostility. It was clear that he had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He was scrupulous before, but he was fearless at this moment. Bu Fang’s arrival brought him great help. The rich fragrance of Bu Fang’s dishes could suppress the Soul Demons, which was vital for the operation!

On the wall, many immortals and deities gathered, their eyes gleaming. They were counting on Sect Leader Tongtian and Bu Fang to break the stalemate.

For some reason, Bu Fang felt a little stressed. He had only planned to make a trip out there, but this feeling of being expected by many people… He exhaled softly.

“Let’s go…” said Tongtian.

“Take care…” said Sun Wukong and the others.

Bu Fang nodded. He put his hands behind his back, took a step forward, and jumped up the parapet, which was exuding an ancient aura.

“How are we going to do this?” Bu Fang furrowed his brows.

“We will cut a bloody path to those hourglasses…” Sect Leader Tongtian floated up into the air and burst out laughing. His aura erupted, then he charged out from the top of the wall like the glowing sun toward the Soul Demons outside the city!

The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched. Cut through a bloody path? How long would it take?

Behind him, a thousand cries rang out in unison as the guards of Hangu Pass rushed out with soaring spirits. Bu Fang could clearly feel that the Soul Demons beneath the pass were a little confused. Apparently, the guards of Hangu Pass were opening a path for Bu Fang and Sect Leader Tongtian.

Bu Fang’s blood began to boil. “Whitey, Foxy, let’s go…” he said.

On his shoulder, Kun Bird gave a cry. Then, it spread its wings, soared into the sky, and transformed into a colossal bird. Bu Fang jumped onto its back before it flew toward the battlefield in a stream of light.

Sect Leader Tongtian was flying at the forefront. With a thought in his mind, the Immortal Slaying Sword left its scabbard, bloomed into a blinding light, and began to open a path before them.

A top Numbered Soul Demon came at them, roaring. The Immortal Slaying Sword slashed through him, killing him and wiping out his true form in a flash.

Sect Leader Tongtian put his hands behind his back and crushed through the dead Soul Overlord. Even then, one Soul Demon after another rushed into the sky. He began the slaughter. The Immortal Slaying Sword flew around him, cutting one Soul Demon after another in half. A shower of black blood poured from the sky.

Meanwhile, the guards of Hangu Pass were fighting the Soul Demons as well. Sun Wukong, Houtu, and many Saints of the Great Path also rushed into the battlefield. The battle shocked heaven and earth!

Suddenly, shafts of Buddha light thrust out of Pangu Pass, then a huge Buddha appeared over the city. Chanting, he gently pushed his palm downward, which melted countless Soul Demons.

Sect Leader Tongtian laughed heartily. It was as if the anger he had been holding down for a long time finally burst out at this moment.

Bu Fang, sitting on Kun Bird’s back, flew slowly after the Sect Leader. He rarely struck. When he did, he always crushed the Soul Demons with a swing of his black wok.

There were many Soul Demons, but they could not resist Tongtian’s slaughter. After fusing his clone, the Sect Leader’s strength had almost reached the level of a perfected Chaotic Saint. He had no trouble in dealing with these foes. Even Soul Overlords were instantly killed by him.

They cut a bloody path through the thick of enemies. Many Soul Demons were cut down before they could react. Perhaps the counterattack of the Primitive Universe’s experts came too quickly and unexpectedly.

Suddenly, the sky trembled, and a terrifying aura spread. Envy Great Soul Overlord appeared once again, his eyes shining brilliantly. “Sect Leader Tongtian… You’re really bold!” he said coldly. Holding his trident, he roared and charged toward the Sect Leader.

At the same time, countless Soul Demons poured forth. At this moment, Bu Fang could no longer sit back and watch.

The air rang to the clanging of metal as the Immortal Exterminating Sword flew out of its scabbard and joined the Immortal Slaying Sword, cutting down all those Soul Demons who approached Sect Leader Tongtian.

Envy Great Soul Overlord had struck out and fought the Sect Leader, but clearly, he was being suppressed.

Bu Fang sat cross-legged on Kun Bird’s back. He did not charge into the enemy. Instead, he took out the God of Cooking Sets. The White Tiger Heaven Stove, Qilin Transmigration Ladle, Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, and the others all floated around him. He began to cook.

He did not cook dark cuisine but gourmet cuisine. In a widespread battle like this, the effect of aromatic gourmet cuisine was more prominent than dark cuisine. After all, to kill Soul Demons with dark cuisine, he had to make them eat the dishes first.

But aromatic gourmet dishes were different. To Soul Demons, the fragrance of food smelled extremely disgusting. When they smelled it, they suffocated just like when humans smelled Stargazy Pie.

A sizzling sound could be heard, and the light of flames illuminated the surroundings. Soon, one meatball after another appeared in midair. These were Four Happiness Meatballs but made with the meat of a Great Soul Overlord.

Bu Fang did not put them in a porcelain plate. Instead, he made these meatballs coated in gravy hover in midair. They kept sending out a rich fragrance.

As the fragrance spread, those savage Soul Demons were struck dumb instantly.

“What’s that smell?!”

“It stinks… My stomach is turning!”

“This is so uncomfortable… I want to leave here!”

The Soul Demons growled and hissed in distress. Their power of sin was in a mess, and they could not attack.

Sect Leader Tongtian immediately felt the pressure on him was relieved. The Immortal Slaying Sword flew through the air, shot across the Soul Demons like a fine thread, and killed thousands of them in a flash! The power of this strike was terrifying, and it instantly cut out a gap in the horde of Soul Demons!

Envy Great Soul Overlord smelled the fragrance as well. Bu Fang’s dishes now affected not only the average Soul Demons, but even the Great Soul Overlord felt disgusted and wanted to vomit upon smelling it. To him, it stunk to high heaven!

“It’s you again, the damned chef!”

Envy Great Soul Overlord’s eyes turned bloodshot. He could not understand why this chef kept following them. He had messed with them in Void City, and now he was here in the Primitive Universe!

The Great Soul Overlord growled. However, since he was not so focused, the Immortal Slaying Sword came and slashed through him, cutting his body in half. He shrieked and fled in panic.

How could he continue to fight in this situation? Affected by the fragrance of the food, he could fight with less than seventy percent of his strength. He was already no match for Sect Leader Tongtian, and it was even worse now…

Bu Fang sat calmly on Kun Bird’s back. He raised his hand and held out a finger, and the Four Happiness Meatballs circled around it.

Foxy, sitting on Whitey’s shoulder, could not wait to taste them. Her mouth was open and drooling. Even Kun Bird was glancing at the meatballs from time to time. As for Shrimpy, it was unmoved and was spitting bubbles.

“Haha! Fellow Daoist Bu… You’re truly amazing!”

Sect Leader Tongtian laughed. This was the situation he was expecting. With the help of Bu Fang’s dishes, fighting the Soul Demons became much more relaxed.

The two swords flew spinning across the air like two dragons, cutting countless Soul Demons into pieces of meat. At the same time, he and Bu Fang had pushed tens of thousands of miles into the army of Soul Demons, getting closer to the seven Hourglasses of Space and Time at the depths of the universe.

The corners of Bu Fang’s lips lifted slightly. In fact, he was not too pleased with the result because this was not the true test. Sloth Great Soul Overlord, who was the strongest Great Soul Overlord, and the other six Great Soul Overlords were the real test.

If they were not careful, they might be killed by these fearsome existences. After all, if they were to destroy the hourglasses, they had to defeat the seven Great Soul Overlords first.

Sect Leader Tongtian clearly knew about this as well, for he was reserving his strength even now.

Bu Fang kept cooking on Kun Bird’s back. All kinds of delicious dishes floated in midair around him, and the numbers continued to grow. They emitted golden light and sent forth delicious fragrance, which seemed to turn into dragons and phoenixes flying in the sky and spreading further and further.

The air was filled with a strong, rich aroma of delicious dishes, and countless Soul Demons were affected, unable to fight. All Sect Leader Tongtian needed to do was… cut them down. Whenever his sword slashed out, thousands of Soul Demons broke into pieces and fell to the ground.

With Bu Fang as the support and the Sect Leader as the attacker, they pushed millions of miles into the starry sky. Soon, they were closing in on the hourglasses.

They were already very far away from Hangu Pass. When they looked back now, they could only see the vague outline of the majestic city, and between them, countless Soul Demons. Their retreating path had been cut off.

The seven Hourglasses of Space and Time slowly rotated. The next moment, the seven Great Soul Overlords sitting in front of them flicked open their eyes at the same time…
