The Heaven Tree was located at the center of the Immortal City. It soared up into the sky and filled the clouds. The dense clouds floated and wrapped around the Heaven Tree, making it look even more ethereal.
The closer the Underworld Ship got, the more they could feel the enormity of the Heaven Tree. It was like a giant that could support the heavens and the earth, occupying more than half of the Immortal City.
The Immortal City had towering city walls. The city walls were simple and unadorned, filled with the vicissitudes of time.
On the city walls, there were mottled moss growing, with some lush green spreading on top, making the city walls look quite old.
However, on such an old city wall, there were many patterns engraved, and those patterns formed a mysterious formation, protecting the Immortal City.
"The Hidden Dragon Continent is actually considered the mortal continent of the Immortal Cooking Realm. In the Immortal Cooking Realm, every continent has its own name, but most people have forgotten about it." Lord Dog lay on the Netherworld Ship, continuing to spread the knowledge of the Immortal Cooking Realm to everyone.
Lord Gou was helpless. He actually wanted to sleep, but looking at the curious and inquisitive eyes, Lord Gou could only continue to explain.
The Hidden Dragon Continent was considered a mortal continent of the Heaven Chief Realm?
Bu Fang nodded. He somewhat understood why the people of the Heaven Chief Realm called them mortals.
This Heaven Chief Realm was just like the novels he read in his previous life, the world that mortals saw after they ascended.
Actually, Bu Fang was a little curious, because Lord Gou said that the chefs of the Heaven Chief Realm were judged by whether they could cook the ingredients that grew on the Heaven Tree.
However, it was impossible that all the ingredients came from the Heaven Tree, right?
"The reason why the Immortal City gates of the Heaven Chief Realm were built so high was to protect the wild and savage beasts from the invasion. Some chefs of the Heaven Chief Realm would also go outside the Immortal City to capture the wild and savage beasts. Of course, they would also go and pick ingredients. Moreover, every Immortal City has its own farmland, where they can grow fruits and vegetables, "Lord Gou explained.
Bu Fang suddenly understood. So that was the case.
While everyone was chatting.
The Netherworld Ship slowly approached the Immortal City, getting closer and closer.
Accompanied by a roar.
The Netherworld Ship descended.
In the distance was the city gate of the Immortal City. The city gate was incomparably tall and there were many armored experts standing outside the gate.
"These are the city guards, the guards under the jurisdiction of the city manager …" Lord Gou raised his dog eyes and said weakly.
Lord Gou felt that he had said all the words he wanted to say in this lifetime.
In the past, he was a little chubby, but he was cold and aloof.
He never spoke more than a sentence or two.
The Black Dragon King touched his bald head and said, "They're different from the people who chased us before. These people are wearing golden armor."
Everyone rolled their eyes. Who couldn't tell?
"The ones who surrounded us before should be the guards of the Immortal City's aristocratic families … There are many aristocratic families in an Immortal City. The aristocratic families and the City Manager work together to keep them in check. After all, an Immortal City has so many resources. If there's no one to keep them in check, the City Manager can cover the sky with one hand. If he makes any decision that goes against the natural order, it could cause a huge impact."
Lord Gou said.
"Therefore, the power of each aristocratic family is quite extraordinary. This is also the reason why I, Lord Gou, wanted to eliminate them. To be able to become an aristocratic family in an Immortal City, there must be a top expert behind this family. That expert's cooking skills might not be as good as the City Manager's, but his fighting strength is definitely not weaker than the City Manager's …"
Bu Fang and the others nodded.
The Heaven Chief Realm was indeed different from the Hidden Dragon Continent. The strongest force of the Hidden Dragon Continent was just at the bottom here.
No wonder the people of the Heaven Chief Realm would say that the people of the Hidden Dragon Continent were just ordinary people.
You kept the Netherworld Ship, following the crowd to slowly walk into the Immortal City.
A wide road was opened in front of the city gate, and there were many pedestrians on the road.
Some of these pedestrians were carrying vegetable baskets, and the baskets were selling spirit vegetables that were emitting dense spirit energy.
Some of them were carrying bamboo baskets, and the bamboo baskets were piled with jade-like spirit bamboo shoots.
Without a doubt, these people were the commoners of the Immortal City. Although they were just commoners, these people's cultivation had reached the Divine Physique Echelon.
It was impossible for a city to be filled with cultivators, so it was normal to have these commoners.
This way, it would not make Bu Fang and the others look too strange.
The guards of the Immortal City gate did not stop Bu Fang and the others.
There were so many people going in and out of the city every day, and sometimes, they were simply too busy. Moreover, they also believed that no one would dare to cause trouble in the Immortal City.
The danger that the Immortal City faced was actually the beast tide created by the ferocious beasts and wild beasts outside the Immortal City. Those crazy ferocious beasts would sometimes form groups to attack the Immortal City, wanting to plunder the ingredients that grew on the Heaven Tree.
Basically, every time the Heaven Tree matured, it would cause a beast tide.
At that time, it was when the guards would be on their guard.
Hence, Bu Fang and the others successfully entered the Immortal City.
The Black Dragon King originally wanted to come to the world inside the Dragon's Gate to show off his might. Now, it seemed that even the city gate guards' cultivation was not weaker than his. What was there for him to show off? He just had to tuck his tail between his legs and be a dragon.
Once they entered the Immortal City …
The hustle and bustle in the Immortal City completely shocked everyone.
The Immortal City was really too flourishing, and every building was incomparably exquisite.
Around the streets, there were also hawkers and restaurants with stalls.
Moreover, as they walked along the wide streets, the flow of people increased.
The distribution of the Immortal City was divided into the inner area and the outer area. The outer area was basically where the commoners lived, while the inner area was where the aristocratic families and the City Lord Manor were located.
Of course, there was one existence that was an exception.
That was the Heaven Chief Hall.
This building was located at the junction of the inner area and the outer area. Behind the Heaven Chief Hall was the City Lord Manor.
Restaurants were more common in the Immortal City. Of course, there were also other shops, but most of them were related to food.
And the restaurants in the outer area were basically contracted by the big aristocratic families. After all, the resources of chefs belonged to the aristocratic families.
To obtain the qualification to open a restaurant in the Immortal City, one needed to enter the Heaven Chief Hall and obtain a chef's rating.
To open a restaurant in the outer area, although one's cooking skills did not need to reach the Heaven Chief's rating, the chef's strength had to at least reach the special grade chef level.
Basically, those chefs who had obtained the Heaven Chief Hall's rating would be recruited by the aristocratic families when they left the Heaven Chief Hall, becoming a member of the aristocratic families.
In the Immortal City, the resources of chefs were the biggest resources.
In this way, the resources earned by the industries in the outer area and the chain formed by the restaurant industry would all fall into the hands of the aristocratic families.
The aristocratic families would always be aristocratic families, and it was difficult for the commoners to have a chance to rise.
And in the inner area, where there were many aristocratic families, it was not normal to open a restaurant there. Every chef in the restaurant there was at the level of the Heaven Chief.
In fact, most of them were Immortal Chef and Second Grade Heaven Chief.
Third Grade Heaven Chief basically would not come out to open a restaurant for business. What they needed to do was to break through to the Qilin Chef realm. Under the Heaven Tree, they would constantly practice their cooking skills.
Hence, the closer to the Heaven Tree, the more excellent chefs there were.
The current Bu Fang naturally did not know about this.
At this moment, he was having a headache about how to open a branch in the Immortal City.
According to what the Lord Gou had said …
If he wanted to open a restaurant in the Immortal City, he must go to the Heaven Chief Hall to take the test and obtain the corresponding chef qualification.
If he did not have the chef qualification, he would not be allowed to open a restaurant, and he would not be able to get a shop.
Now, Bu Fang was not familiar with everything in the Immortal City, so he did not want to take the test. He needed to observe first.
A group of people walked in the Immortal City.
Hua was caught by the Black Dragon King, riding on the Black Dragon King's neck.
You and Hades Erha followed beside Bu Fang. Hades Erha had a Spicy Strip in his mouth, happily going in and out.
The Lord Gou was elegantly walking like a cat. Every step was not fast, but he could keep up with Bu Fang and the others.
"Bu Fang, little friend, we've been walking for so long. Why don't we go to a restaurant to eat? It's not a good idea to walk aimlessly like this."
The Black Dragon King sniffed the fragrance in the air, and his mouth was already drooling.
When it came to food, the Black Dragon King's resistance was very weak. After all, he had eaten a lot of raw seafood in the Endless Sea. When he smelled cooked food, he could not control himself.
A restaurant?
After listening to the Black Dragon King's words, Bu Fang came to his senses.
That's right. Instead of walking aimlessly like this, it was better to go to a restaurant to take a look.
Hence, everyone walked towards a restaurant in the distance.
"Why doesn't this restaurant have a name?"
After looking for a long time, he couldn't find the name of the restaurant. Bu Fang raised his brows, then led the others into the restaurant.
The Lord Gou was behind Bu Fang. Looking at Bu Fang's indomitable back, he smacked his lips playfully.
Then, he also stepped into the restaurant with his cat-like steps.
"The restaurants in the periphery are not allowed to have the right to sign their names. Restaurants that are not owned by the Heaven Chief are not qualified to have the right to sign their names," the Lord Gou said.
As soon as they entered the restaurant, the bustling atmosphere attracted the attention of Bu Fang and the others.
The restaurant's decoration style was very simple, with green bricks and red pillars. Many square tables were placed in the middle of the shop.
The location was very spacious. Although the restaurant looked small from the outside, once they entered, it seemed like there was a universe inside. It was very spacious.
There were dozens of tables in the restaurant.
Basically, there were people eating at each of the tables.
The air was filled with the aroma of food, wine, and spices. All kinds of scents intertwined, forming a kind of restaurant smell that Bu Fang was very familiar with.
"In the Heaven Chief Realm, basically no one knows how to cook. When it's time to eat, they all go to the restaurant to eat. They even use the food in the restaurant as a substitute for cultivating …"
The Lord Gou said.
Bu Fang nodded.
After waiting for a long time, they finally found an empty seat and sat down.
At this time, a waiter finally came to greet them.
The one who greeted them was a young girl. Her hair was coiled into a bun, and she smiled at Bu Fang and the others.
"Welcome. What would you like to eat?"
"What do you have in this restaurant?"
The others didn't say anything. They just looked at Bu Fang, and Bu Fang slowly opened his mouth to ask.
The young girl was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the expressionless young man would be the leader of this group.
"This is our restaurant's menu. Please have a look, sir."
However, no matter who was the leader, the young girl didn't care. After all, these people came to the restaurant to eat.
The young girl smiled, took out a wooden menu from her bosom, and handed it to Bu Fang.
A menu?
Bu Fang took the menu, and his eyes swept over it.
However, the moment Bu Fang's eyes touched the names of the dishes on the menu, his eyes suddenly shrank.
"Stir-fried Heavenly Spirit Bamboo, one immortal crystal."
"Stir-fried Fire Spirit Twin-Headed Snake, two immortal crystals a portion …"
