The spirit boat streaked across the sky, and when it passed by the Illusory Spirit Swamp, it stopped.
Bu Fang stood on the spirit boat, poking his head out to look at the boundless spirit swamp. His eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of nostalgia.
This … seemed to be the serpent-men tribe.
His other apprentice, the serpent-man Yu Fu, stayed in the Serpentmen City.
On the way to the Celestial Arcanum Sect, they had to pass by the Illusory Spirit Swamp. Thus, Bu Fang could go to the serpent-men tribe and meet his other apprentice.
In truth, if they weren't in Fang Fang's Little Store, Bu Fang didn't have much hope for Yu Fu's culinary skills to improve.
After all, it wasn't easy to improve one's culinary skills. Although he had taught him most of what he could in Fang Fang's Little Store, he still had to rely on his own practice.
Yu Fu seemed to be the next Serpentine Sovereign, so she must be very busy every day. It wouldn't be easy for her to improve her culinary skills.
The spirit boat landed, bringing along a wave of air as it floated not far above the Illusory Spirit Swamp.
Inside the spirit boat, Ni Yan was lying on her side, snoring loudly. As time passed, this woman's sleeping time was getting longer and longer, which wasn't good news.
The longer she slept, the more time Ni Yan spent suppressing the power of the stars in her mind.
Who knew when this woman would fall asleep and never wake up.
However, it shouldn't be a problem for the time being.
After all, every time Ni Yan woke up, she would have a big meal. Bu Fang would also choose to cook large spirit beasts to fill Ni Yan's stomach.
Every time after eating, Ni Yan would become more energetic.
Stepping on the soft swamp ground, he felt that the swamp ground was somewhat warm, and a faint wave of heat was emitted from it, making people feel quite comfortable.
Perhaps it was because of the terrain, the heaven and earth spirit energy here was denser than the Light Wind Empire.
The spirit energy in the Light Wind Empire was really too weak, ridiculously weak.
In other words, the spirit energy in the entire Southern Region was especially weak.
As Bu Fang walked, he saw the serpent-men tribe in the distance.
Compared to the Light Wind Empire, this place seemed to be a lot more stable. Compared to the tragic invasion of the Light Wind Empire by the Demon Scorpion Race, this place was really too safe.
Perhaps it was because the serpent-men tribe had more experts. Of course, it could also be because the demon scorpion tribe did not have too many experts in the Illusory Spirit Swamp.
The current serpent-men tribe's defense was much stronger than before.
At the very least, the ferocious-looking fence in front of the door hid the prosperity in the depths of the interior.
Perhaps because Bu Fang and Ni Yan could tell at a glance that they were humans, they were allowed into the serpent-men tribe without much interrogation.
The serpent-men tribe was very lively. Compared to the previous barren land, it was much more prosperous. Weapons were laid out on both sides of the streets.
Compared to weapon shops, restaurants were the most popular.
The Naga Tribe's restaurant was not luxuriously decorated. Instead, it was a shabby house with many tables and chairs.
Bu Fang and Ni Yan entered a restaurant. They ordered a few dishes out of curiosity and took a break.
Of course, Bu Fang would not choose to drink the wine of this shabby restaurant. Bu Fang had better wine.
Opening the lid of the wine jar, the fragrance of the wine that wafted out made many serpent-men in the restaurant salivate.
Too fragrant. This wine fragrance was really too fragrant.
However, no matter how fragrant it was, they could not drink this wine because Bu Fang would not give it to them.
This was the Frost Blaze Path-Understanding Brew, a very precious jar of wine.
After drinking two cups with Ni Yan, Bu Fang carefully put away the Frost Blaze Path-Understanding Brew. The wine fragrance that had enveloped the entire restaurant also disappeared.
The surrounding diners all felt a little regretful.
Someone wanted to come over and ask about Bu Fang's wine. However, after seeing Bu Fang's expressionless face, he gave up on this idea.
The dishes were served, and the aroma was not bad.
However, they naturally could not be compared to the dishes cooked by Bu Fang.
The first dish that was served made Bu Fang a little surprised.
Because this dish … Bu Fang had cooked it before.
It was the roasted fish he had cooked in the serpent-men tribe. He had used the special fat fish of the tribe to roast the fish.
Although the process was different and the cooking method was rough, Bu Fang could still recognize that it was a roasted fish.
Regarding this, Bu Fang was a little surprised.
Back then, he had cooked the roasted fish unintentionally. He did not expect that these serpent-men would learn it.
These serpent-men were really talented.
Judging from the popularity of food in the serpent-men tribe, it was much better than when he had first come to the tribe.
Bu Fang used his chopsticks and began to taste the roasted fish.
The chopsticks peeled off the fish skin, revealing the white and tender flesh inside. This fat fish's flesh was especially good, and its texture was excellent.
Back then, Bu Fang had liked this fat fish, so he had cooked it.
Picking up a piece of fish and putting it in his mouth, Bu Fang furrowed his brows. Then, his brows relaxed.
After taking a bite, he put down his chopsticks.
With Bu Fang's current cooking skills, he was extremely picky about food.
This roasted fish was really good, which could be seen from the popularity of the restaurant. However, in Bu Fang's restaurant, it was not good enough.
However, the control of the fire and the combination of ingredients were much worse.
Bu Fang did not have high expectations. After all, the other party had learned how to cook from him.
It was normal that there were some flaws that the other party had not learned.
Thus, Bu Fang did not eat the fish. Instead, he sipped the wine.
Ni Yan was good at eating. Basically, she did not refuse anyone. With her current appetite, she could eat until the sky was the sky.
Bu Fang did not expect that after fusing with the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk, he would become a super glutton.
Was it because the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk was also a glutton?
It was hard to say.
"Did you guys hear? The Light Wind Empire has been completely conquered by those demons … Oh my god, the people of the Light Wind Empire have been eaten alive by those demons! "
"Recently, the world has not been peaceful. Fortunately, our new Serpentine Sovereign is wise. She united the serpent-men tribe to fight against the demons. The demons' invasion was resolved several times."
"You don't say. Her Majesty is really wise. However, besides the demons' invasion, many strange things have happened. Do you know about the big crystal mine that is three hundred miles away? The crystal mine that was discovered and mined has collapsed again … A big hole with a diameter of dozens of miles has appeared! Many of our tribe's experts have died. "
…
The restaurant was very lively. Many serpent-men were eating and chatting.
Bu Fang's mental energy was very strong. He could hear all the information around him.
The thing that piqued Bu Fang's interest the most was the collapse of the crystal mine …
Bu Fang knew about the crystal mine because the Crystal Source Purple Essence was still in his system's dimensional bag. There wasn't anything special about that big crystal mine back then … Why would it collapse again now?
Oh … There was something magical about it. It was just that the crystal source had given him a weirdo, Xiaopi.
Apart from that, there was nothing special about it.
Then, why did it collapse again?
The serpent-men chatted for a long time. However, none of them told them why the mine collapsed and what was underneath it.
As such, Bu Fang did not waste any more time.
Ni Yan had finished the entire grilled fish. She was now gnawing on the fish bones, looking like a hungry ghost that had been reincarnated.
Bu Fang glanced at the woman, then pulled her out of the restaurant.
They headed straight toward the Grand Serpent-Men City.
Bu Fang held Ni Yan's hand and leisurely strolled in the park. He released his mental energy, and no one could obstruct his steps.
The city was much more prosperous than before. There were also many restaurants, which surprised Bu Fang.
After Bu Fang gave his name, he went to the serpent-men's imperial palace.
No one stopped him.
Yu Fu, the current Serpentine Sovereign, ordered her subordinates to let him pass when she heard Bu Fang's name.
Thus, Bu Fang easily entered the main hall.
As soon as he entered the main hall, everyone's gaze fell on him.
They were the serpent-men elders' gazes.
Some of them were scrutinizing him, while others were solemn.
However, there was one person whose gaze was burning with passion. It belonged to the Serpentine Sovereign, Yu Fu.
Yu Fu was very happy. Her face was full of smiles. She swayed her serpent tail and flew down from her seat. She arrived in front of Bu Fang.
Bu Fang clasped his hands behind his back and looked at Yu Fu.
The once young and inexperienced serpent-man girl had now become the Serpentine Sovereign. She looked incomparably majestic, which was a little different from the Yu Fu in his memory.
Yu Fu and Bu Fang chatted for a long time. It seemed that it had been a long time since she saw Bu Fang. Yu Fu was very talkative, chattering non-stop.
She talked about her persistence in cooking after Bu Fang left. Although she was an empress, she still spent a lot of time on cooking. She loved cooking, and she had promised Bu Fang that she would not give up cooking.
Yu Fu's persistence surprised Bu Fang a little. Then, his gaze softened.
This serpent-man girl's character hadn't changed.
Next, Bu Fang observed Yu Fu's cooking skills. Yu Fu excitedly cooked many dishes.
These dishes were taught by Bu Fang, and some were self-taught.
Among them was the roasted fish, which she had secretly learned from Bu Fang.
Yu Fu was amazed by this dish, so she spent a lot of time to study it.
This dish was popularized in the entire Grand Serpentine City.
Compared to the roasted fish in the restaurant, Yu Fu's roasted fish was much more exquisite and delicious. At least, her control over the heat and the temperature of the oil was much better. Moreover, the combination of the ingredients was also very meticulous.
The taste was not bad. Bu Fang nodded his head in satisfaction.
Ni Yan, on the other hand, had the opportunity to eat a big meal.
The whole fish fell into her stomach.
After chatting for a while, Bu Fang suddenly remembered that he had inquired about the big crystal mine in the restaurant, so he casually asked about it.
He didn't expect that the atmosphere in the serpent-men tribe would change when he asked this question.
"Owner Bu, you don't know this, but the big crystal mine has become a taboo topic in our tribe. Because of that mine, at least two Supreme-Beings of our Grand Serpentine City have fallen …"
Yu Fu's complexion was heavy, and she sighed.
Two Supreme-Beings … Bu Fang's brows twitched, and his heart became more and more curious.
"It's pitch-black, bottomless, and most importantly … when you get close, there is actually a fragrance of food."
Yu Fu frowned as she described the smell to Bu Fang.
Bu Fang was taken aback, and his face was filled with confusion. There was a fragrance of food in the big crystal mine?
How was this possible? Could it be that someone was cooking in the big crystal mine?
Yu Fu seemed to have seen through Bu Fang's doubts. She took a deep breath and said, "There is indeed a fragrance of food. Moreover, it can only be found in the area of the big crystal mine. When you walk out of the area, you can't smell any fragrance at all."
"That fragrance of food is poisonous … It can stir up one's mind. I once personally approached the big crystal mine, and when I smelled the fragrance, I sank into it for three days and three nights. I couldn't eat or drink, and I felt like I had lost my soul."
Bu Fang furrowed his brows. Was this really the fragrance of food?
What kind of fragrance could reach such a level?
Bu Fang knew that even with his current cooking skills, he wouldn't be able to cook such a dish.
Involuntarily, the corners of Bu Fang's mouth curled up. The fragrance of food in the big crystal mine … He really wanted to experience it.
Just as everyone was chatting …
Suddenly …
Outside the main hall, a serpent-man rushed in in a panic, and he even let out a frightened shout.
"Your Highness! Not good! The Endless Sea's Oceanic Species … is heading toward the big crystal mine! "
