Chapter 9 – The Great Desolate Space

Among the three, Wang Tao ate the slowest, however he ate the most. Du Yang and Zhao Yongkui ate slightly less.

The one who definitely ate the least was Gu Zheng. Internally he was talking with the device spirit. Due to him multitasking, his speed of eating had slowed somewhat. He had only eaten two pieces of the chicken, one prawn, he hadn’t drank a single mouthful of soup. Right now there was only a little bit of sorghum rice remaining within his pow. After the others had asked, their eyes were all staring at Gu Zheng’s bowl.

“None, none at all, this is it!”

Gu Zheng hurriedly scooped the remaining sorghum rice in the bowl into his mouth. He was worried that if he waited any longer, the three would’ve probably even wanted to take the food within his bowl away.

Du Yang’s good eyes suddenly gazed towards the plate that held honey chicken and picked it up. He stuck out his tongue and licked the plate. On the plate for the honey chicken, there was a little bit of sauce remaining. The rest had long since been eaten by the others.

“Clever!”

Wang Tao quietly scolded. He grabbed the pot for the chicken soup and poured the last few remaining drops into his mouth. The plate that held the wild lotus and the deep-sea prawns had long been picked clean. Zhao Yongkui who wanted to snatch some had nothing left to snatch and only looked on helplessly.

“Gu Zheng, the things you made this time are too delicious. I have never eaten something so good!” After putting down his plate, Du Yang spoke with satisfaction.

“Indeed, this is the best thing I have ever eaten in my life. After eating your dishes, everything that I have eaten before seems like pig feed. Alas, you’ll only do it again after a couple of years, such a thing is truly torture!”

After he finished drinking the last drop of the soup, Wang Tao’s eyes were filled with resentment. However, his words attracted Du Yang’s and Zhao Yongkui’s absolute approval: “Gu Zheng, your cooking skill has truly progressed quite a lot. We seriously have never eaten anything that was this tasty before. At this point, with your skill should be on par with your fathers. Perhaps, one day you will also travel to france and become a three star Michelin chef as well!”

The others had never eaten food made by Gu Zheng’s father. However, to them, while the dishes that the top world chef’s would certainly be decent, only the skill level of a Michelin star chef could make something like this. Just eating what they made, their deliciousness wouldn’t be able to be described in mere words.

Gu Zheng wanted to reply, however a voice rang out from within his head: “Congratulations on completing the test. As the disciple of the God of Gluttony, having the ability to conquer others’ taste buds is crucial. You have conquered those three, thus you can open the first layer of the Great Desolate space!”

The test was finally completed. Not even considering the fact that he could open the Great Desolate space and cultivate, he at least didn’t have to be worried about being forced to detonate. Thus, the biggest crisis was averted.

“If you want to eat, it’s still possible together. Today I’m exhausted after cooking this stuff, another day, I’ll once again ask you guys to come over!”

Gu Zheng said as he escorted them out. In fact, he hadn’t eaten nearly enough. He had made it only himself. If he truly wanted to eat, when he found some more ingredients he would make it once more. At that time would he heartily eat by himself.

Gu Zheng’s habit after finishing a meal was to send them home. The three clearly wanted something more and didn’t want to leave. However, seeing Gu Zheng’s determined attitude, they could only leave. Afterwards, the three didn’t go home, they found another place to think about how delicious the meal was.

After sending out the others, Gu Zheng locked the door securely. Only then did he ask internally: “That Great Desolate space, can it be opened now?”

Gu Zheng was filled with expectations towards the Great Desolate Space that the device spirit had spoken about. Within it he would be able to cultivate, in accordance to the description the device spirit had given earlier, cultivating the God of Gluttony’s Secret Immortal art would allow him to fly through the skies and traverse the ground. Without the space, none of that would be possible. With the possibility of becoming strong, no one would be able to remain calm with such a temptation right in front of them.

“You can. Do you want to open it now?”

The device spirit replied to Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng didn’t even bother thinking: “Open, open. Open it now!”

Following to Gu Zheng’s words, Gu Zheng once again ‘saw’ the bronze beast within his mind. The beast this time was different from the previous time and it had a pair of glowing eyes. The beast suddenly opened it’s mouth, Gu Zheng only saw a strong flash of light, and everything before him had changed.

Right now, he was inside a 20 meter square small space. All around him was a thick fog, above him was a yellow colored sky with nine suns. There was an abundance of sunlight, yet he didn’t feel hot.

“This is the Great Desolate Space?” Gu Zheng asked in awe.

“Correct, the first level of the Great Desolate space is only this large. When you cultivate the God of Gluttony’s secret art to the second realm, the space will be doubled. When you cultivate to the third realm, it will increase to double of the second realm and so on!”

“It can grow larger? Great, How do I cultivate?”

Gu Zheng was very surprised towards his surroundings, however he did not forget what was most important, which was cultivation. He didn’t feel anything like qi flowing through his body, nor did he feel as if his strength was enhanced in any way.

“The God of Gluttony’s secret art is essentially his natural physique and can only be practiced by Master God of Gluttony himself, as well as his descendents. You only need to stand in here, you don’t need to do anything. The Great Desolate Immortal essence will naturally flow into your body!”

“Just standing here is fine? So easy?”

Gu Zheng was extremely surprised and felt very happy. He didn’t need to work in order to improve his cultivation, however, unfortunately, the time he had was too short. He only had a total of fifteen minutes. If he had a bit more time, that would men that his cultivation would also improve more.

“While within the Great Desolate space, you can receive seeds from ingredients of the immortal plane. There are 10 different rice seeds and vegetable seeds here, and there is enough land here for you to plant them. After harvesting them from the Great Desolate space, they will contain immortal essence, and will allow you to enhance your strength!

“There’s such a good thing? Where are the seeds?”

Gu Zheng was at first stunned by the spirit devices words, however soon afterwards it became happiness. The device spirit had spoken quite clearly, these were immortal seeds. Furthermore, they were of the common quality. That small jar of honey of common quality made him able to make something so delicious… After harvesting the ingredients grown from these seeds, he didn’t know what kind of wonderful dishes he could make.

Even if it wasn’t delicious, it still contained immortal yuan energy and would allow him to enhance his cultivation.

The spirit device didn’t say anything, and twenty small lights suddenly flew over. The small flights fell to the ground, and in an organized fashion, quickly vanished.

After planting the seeds himself, the device spirit spoke: “This time, your performance was quite good. Master God of Gluttony has told me to pass on this to you, If you do well, you can receive additional rewards. Do you wish to receive you additional reward?”

“If it’s an additional rewards, don’t hesitate to show it to me!”

This was also a surprise. Gu Zheng suddenly felt that perhaps this spirit device wasn’t so annoying. This magical space was already amazing, however, he didn’t know what this additional reward was.

“The additional reward is one common quality Immortal essence pellet as well as Master God of Gluttony fried egg Cooking Technique!” (T/N: Thus the ultimate fried egg shall be born under Gu Zheng’s hands in the far future… Also those coming from other novels, pellet=dan.)

Property of © Fantasy-Books.live; outside of it, it is stolen.

The spirit device spoke slowly, and once again there were a few a small light flying over. This time it didn’t fall into the ground, but fell into Gu Zheng’s hands. The Immortal Essence Pellet was about the size of a green bean, and was crystal clear, with the color of a pearl. A clear fragrance emitted from the elixir.

“They actually rewarded an Immortal elixir, great!”

Gu Zheng exclaimed. Suddenly, a picture suddenly appeared in his mind. There was a handsome man in white standing in front of a strange stove, with his hand holding a pan, cooking a fried egg. The film soon ended, and the fried egg technique was imprinted within Gu Zheng’s mind.

The film had finished, however he had remembered everything Gu Zheng had seen on the screen. The only difference was the he personally had not experienced it yet.

“This immortal pellet, what does it do?”

Gu Zheng asked. Although he knew that the elixir was of the ordinary quality, it was an immortal elixir. Whether through fictional stories or the television, he knew that the ellixir was helpful to quickly enhance one’s cultivation. He didn’t know if this Immortal pellet would allow his God of Gluttony’s Secret Art’s second realm. If it did, he would no longer have to worry himself sick about it later.

“The Immortal essence pellet is used to enhance your immortal energy. With you current cultivation, it should enhance your immortal energy by about 10 percent!”

“Even just ten percent is alright!”

Ten percent was alright. Even though it wasn’t as good as Gu Zheng thought it would be, and wouldn’t enhance him by one entire level, it still increased his cultivation, leaving Gu Zheng quite happy. After using the Immortal Pellet, it would directly increase his Immortal energy, and the more it increased, the better.

Soon, his fifteen minutes in the Great Desolate space passed, and Gu Zheng woke to himself standing up. It was as if he had passed out, in front of his eyes remained a hint of the scenery of the room. The elixir in his hands also didn’t disappear, and a faint fragrance wafted off from it’s exterior. After seeing the Immortal Pellet in his hand, Gu Zheng couldn’t help but laugh.

If he didn’t eat this Immortal Pellet and sold it instead, he would surely make a lot of money. If he didn’t eat it and sold it, would he not become rich overnight?”

Unfortunately, his laugh didn’t continue for long, before his face went blank. His eyes were filled with disbelief.

“Ordinary people do not have Immortal physiques. If they were to consume the Immortal Pellet, their bodies would explode, only leaving blood behind. Thus, you can only eat the elixir yourself, and cannot sell it. “

“There is some additional information for you. You have received the first inheritance from Master God of Gluttony, thus you must continue to work hard. The descendant of the God of Gluttony must use the Fried egg Cooking Technique to cook fried eggs and conquer more people’s taste buds. In the next fifteen days, the God of Gluttony’s descendant must sell fried eggs in a fixed location. “

“Your test criteria is this: Your fried eggs become the most famous food in the radius of three kilometers. The food grade limit is second-class, and the text cannot be rejected. Failure to complete the test will be punished with one hundred whippings. The details and rules written by the God of Gluttony is in order to help you develop!” (T/N: This was originally one originally massive paragraph, but I split it up into three so it wouldn’t be so nauseating to look at.)
