The Urban Successor Of God Of Gluttony - Chapter 3- The Irrefusable Test

Chapter 3- The Irrefusable Test

Gu Zhengs body shivered, he recovered and he felt as if he had lost blood.

Great. If he were to suddenly explode, there would only be a puddle of red blood on the ground remaining of him. He had no idea what tomorrows news would say. Perhaps it would not be on the news at all since they wouldnt want the public to know about something like this.

Fortunately, he hadnt rushed to eat the medicine.

All medicines have poison this kind of saying From now on, if I cant take medicine, what do I do if I get sick?

Gu Zheng thought suddenly and hastily asked. He didnt know exactly what would qualify as being poisonous, however, medicine always being three parts poison was not wrong. However, if he could no longer eat medicine in the future, when he was sick, would he have to fight the disease alone?

Cultivate diligently, When the God of Gluttony reached the second realm, never again was he impacted by sickness!

The voice once again sounded. This time he did not wait for Gu Zheng to retort, he directly told him the abilities of the God of Gluttony.

The secret art of the God of Gluttony was the cultivation method that the God of Gluttony himself had created. The God of Gluttony was born in the ancient times of the Great Desolate and was one of the Great Nine Immortals. In the Great Desolate, he had extraordinary status, thus his cultivation methods difficulty was extremely high. Only he and his descendants had the ability to cultivate it.

The God of Gluttony placed too much of an emphasis on gourmet food and his whereabouts were uncertain as he traveled everywhere to sample the various delicious delicacies. The Great Desolate was large beyond imagination, even when the God of Gluttony traveled for so many years, he had not traversed it entirely. In addition, he hadnt been able to leave a successor, so while the Chaos Calamity had yet to come, he transferred his inheritance into the Will of the God of Gluttony and released it out to the world to be obtained by a fated individual.

This Immortal Secret Art of the God of Gluttony you told me about, I havent felt anything whatsoever. Have I really already started cultivating it?

After listening to the explanation, Gu Zheng carefully inspected his body. Finally, he puzzledly asked another question. His body didnt have any kind of heat flowing throughout it, there werent any signs that appeared like those on television shows. He didnt miraculously learn qigong, or suddenly become frighteningly powerful. He only just now realized that his body didnt experience any change whatsoever.  He even secretly pinched the bus chair, there wasnt any special sensation from the hand that he used to pinch the seat. It didnt even need to be said whether or not the chair was broken.

This place isnt the Great Desolate, this also isnt any kind of natural immortal essence. Only by relying on yourself will you be able to cultivate. You can only eat foods containing immortal essence to increase your Immortal energy, and improve your cultivation of the Immortal Secret Art. (T/N: now, Im also not sure about this, but I think immortal essence is supposed to be absorbed then converted to Immortal energy. The author says nothing so far we shall see)

What kind of food has Immortal energy in it?

Gu Zheng was somewhat excited. Although this God of Gluttonys Secret Art had a dangerous bite, now matter what you said it was still an Immortal cultivation method. If he were to succeed at cultivating it, not only would he be unaffected by all forms of sickness, he would also be able to fly in the sky and traverse the world. Except for when he was little, he had never had a daydream like this. Back then, it was merely a delusion for him to possibly become an immortal.

Earlier, I already did some investigating. This world of yours is really too poor, there arent any ingredients that contain Immortal Essence here!

Gu Zhengs mouth fell wide open. In an instant, the hope that had just ignited was completely extinguished.  It was just like what the spirit device had said earlier, this world wasnt the Great Desolate. He couldnt just rely on himself to cultivate. Right now there also wasnt anything that could help him cultivate. Wasnt this equivalent to saying that this Secret Art of the God of Gluttony that he had just received had no uses whatsoever?

It was like having an electric light bulb without any electricity, or a car without gas. He could only look at it and have no way of actually using it.

Light bulbs, cars, and etc Even if they couldnt be used, at least they could be exchanged for other things of actual use. This God of Gluttonys Secret art, not only did it seem as if he couldnt use it, but if he were to get sick in the future, it rendered him unable to eat medicine. Looking it at it this way, it wasnt as if it did nothing.

Dont worry, Master God of Gluttony left his lifelong collection within the Will of the God of Gluttony. Theres definitely a lot of these kinds of ingredients!

While Gu Zheng was feeling annoyed, the voice of the spirit device echoed out from deep within, the voice seemed to contain some ridicule.

Why didnt you say so earlier!

Gu Zheng let out a sigh of relief while letting out a sheepish grin and inwardly scolding his foolishness. He was the descendant of the God of Gluttony, the God of Gluttony probably prepared something for his descendant. How could he not prepare anything useful for cultivating?

Gu Zheng had not finished letting out his sigh of relief when the next words of the spirit device caused his eyes to snap open: Dont be happy too soon, in order to receive Master God of Gluttonys ingredients, you have to cultivate the Secret Art of the God of Gluttony to the 5th level to be approved!

The 5th level, how is that possible!

Gu Zheng almost yelled out loud, but he was still aboard the town bus, so he forcibly pushed down the words he wanted to say.

This place didnt have anything with Immortal essence, so he couldnt rely on himself to cultivate. Not even mentioning the 5th level, he wouldnt be able to even reach the first level. In the end, there wasnt any progress. There still wasnt any way to use it.

Dont rush, you were born after the Great Desolate Era. Master God of Gluttony was completely alone. His disciple will also be the same in this way. Therefore, within the God of Gluttonys will, there are other alternatives in the secret art such as the Great Desolate space. First, you can go into secret arts separate space to cultivate. Within this Great Desolate space, you can grow the seeds of common ingredients. I may have said common, however theyre still from ingredients containing some Immortal Essence. After the seeds finish growing and you harvest them, you can obtain some Immortal Essence as well as improve the ingredients you need for the Immortal secret art.

You couldnt finish saying it all at once? Gu Zheng softly spoke. He had just finished speaking when he heard the sound of extremely dry laughter.

I already told you, you were too impatient.

The spirit devices voice was extremely indifferent, or at least that was how Gu Zheng felt it was. The laughter he had heard earlier had come from the spirit device, however this time it was laughing at himself.

Although youve received the God of Gluttonys Secret Arts inheritance, all in all you dont have an Immortal Body. You can only open the Great Desolate spaces first level. Each day you can only spend a total of 15 minutes inside. After 15 minutes youll have to leave, otherwise, your body wont be able to take it and will end up injured!

Compared to earlier, fifteen minutes is fine. Its better than nothing!

At long last, Gu Zhengs sensitive liver was somewhat comforted. Its true that it wasnt a lot of time, however, at least he would be able to cultivate. Besides, this wasnt the Great Desolate.  He only needed to cultivate just a bit to accumulate some Immortal energy. As long as he could possess more strength than most people. Just thinking about it was exciting.

In addition to the fifteen minutes of cultivating, he could still plant some ordinary ingredients and thus gain yet another method to cultivate.

How do you enter the Great Desolate space, does my entire self-enter? After thinking for a bit, Gu Zheng once again asked.

To open the Great Desolate space, you need to complete Master God of Gluttonys test, only then can you enter!

What, theres still a test?

Gu Zheng suddenly sat straight up, internally it was as if he was restraining back a million grazing horses who suddenly galloped towards him. Every time before he could finish speaking, this spirit device would interrupt him.

Master God of Gluttony set a test, its supposed to be for your cultivation. This test cannot be refused, the moment I brought it up, the exam would officially begin!

Ye Xing was already rendered unable to express the internal feelings he had right now. The test couldnt even be rejected. After the test was proposed it would automatically begin. In the end, he didnt even know who this God of Gluttony is. However, now he felt like he sort of knew who he was. He wasnt looking for a successor, he was trying to mess with people.

In order to become a God of Cuisine, not only do you need the best ingredients, but you need the best cooking skills. You must have the ability to wholeheartedly satisfy someone down to their core with your cooking in order to open the first level of Great Desolate Space. Within their heart, the cuisine you make must make them feel as if it is the best cooking they have ever tasted and fully conquer their taste buds. This is the First Test, if after three days you are unable to complete it in three days you will have failed. If so, you do not deserve to be the successor of the God of Gluttony, and will be erased!

The test has officially begun!

The spirit devices voice was incredibly serious. Not only did this test automatically start, but if it wasnt completed he would be erased. To be erased, it couldnt mean that something as small as his name would completely disappear?
