Chapter 123: Cake Tasting Guide

Different parts of the cake have different ways of eating them.

The cherry is the cake's facade; there is only one on a piece. When Big Boss tasted it, he would first lightly lick it, then pry open the skin and use the tip of his tongue to taste the sweet and delicious juice of the fruit.

As for the Cream Grape, one had to be careful when tasting it. Although it was also sweet and delicious, it was ultimately delicate; one could not use too much force when eating it, lest the fruit skin be ruined.

When tasting, one also had to pair it with a hand massage, listening to the Fruit Sound like celestial music. Only thus could the Cream Grape feel the diner's favor and exude the juiciest sweetness.

The chocolate crust was one of the rarest parts of the cake. However, under normal circumstances, the cake would be equipped with a black chocolate exterior.

This was because black could decorate the cake's appearance, conceal insignificant flaws on the cake, and add a touch of exotic charm and flavor.

But the piece of cake Big Boss was currently tasting was not an ordinary cake.

The crust she chose was white chocolate. This kind of chocolate tested the cake's own shape and taste very much.

If the cream itself was too much, pairing it with a white crust would make it seem somewhat greasy; if the cream itself was too little, it would be too dry, unable to fit completely with the crust, and the flavor could not blend into it.

This piece of cake named Vivian in front of him had neither of these two problems. The cream was neither more nor less by a bit. The cake embryo inside was strong and powerful, with perfect curves—clearly a cake embryo that exercised often.

Paired with the white chocolate crust, whether visually, olfactorily, or tactilely, it was absolutely incomparable to ordinary cakes.

Big Boss tasted it, lingering with delight. As he ate, he made the white chocolate crust torn, revealing the crystal clear cream inside.

The cream was smooth and not greasy, sweet and delicious, with charming curves.

As he ate, for a moment, he almost forgot about the Dragon Daughter Cake he had a one-month affair with.

And the most delicious fruit on this piece of cake was undoubtedly the Peach.

Unlike cherries and Cream Grapes, the Peach was the largest in size, highest in hardness, and firm and elastic. Playing with it required no excessive concern; just taste its flavor to your heart's content. When the mood struck, one could even knead and slap it to maintain the Peach's activity.

And the most delicious part of the Peach cake was naturally the Partition Line in the middle of the peach flesh. That part was the essence of an entire peach, the part closest to the Peach Pit.

Big Boss had skill when tasting. Fast and slow, gentle and forceful, forceful and relaxed, making the peach unable to fathom his tasting method.

In a short while, this Peach was completely ripe.

The juice was like it was blasted out by a Juicer, many times more than an ordinary peach, and the taste inside was extremely sweet.

After a round of tasting, Little Cake was completely eaten by Big Boss, unable to rise again.

But how could Big Boss let her go so easily?

Sorry, you haven't made Adult Liu Li satisfied yet~ Keep changing the cake to various colored chocolate crusts, keep slapping and ripening it, and fish belly white also appeared on the horizon...

"TMD what a sin, Li Cheng Ah Li Cheng, how can you be so depraved? Have you forgotten why you came here? Have you forgotten your noble mission to sacrifice all beings and achieve world nuclear peace?"

"Is that eating cake? You're lusting after someone's body!"

"You're despicable!"

"You defying heaven, abandoning this Goddess and targeting these ignorant girls!"

"Wuu wuu wuu, what's wrong with this Goddess? Black crust, white crust, I can do it too!"

Lilith rolled on the ground outside the room, venting the anguish in her heart.

After a while, she clutched her head as if schizophrenic.

"No, Lilith Ah Lilith, what are you saying!"

"You are a Goddess, you are not a base Mother Dragon, nor a lewd Little Cake! You are a Goddess, a Goddess!"

"That's right, Big Boss and the like, Lilith doesn't want to taste them!"

"That's right, don't want to, don't want to!"

"That defying heaven birth, this Goddess will never mind him again!"

"Lilith." Just then, the door opened, Big Boss came out wearing clothes, holding Vivian who had already fallen asleep.

"Arrive!" Lilith stood up abruptly: "Adult Liu Li, any orders~"

Seeing Vivian, she inconspicuously sniffed twice.

No, cannot cry. A proud Goddess would not cry.

"Left."

"Going where?"

"Go to Altar, prepare to refine."

"Okay, Adult Liu Li~" Lilith followed behind Big Boss with a pitter-patter. —Outside the World Tree Gate.

Full Moon Academy's Third Round Assessment field.

The Professors and Legends were guarding there extremely nervously.

Almost everyone's face was full of melancholy.

The time flow inside and outside the World Tree Gate was different, but even so, the candidates had stayed inside for too long.

"Such a long time and still not out, sigh..." Order Great High Priest sighed: "I'm afraid..."

"Impossible, my son Mu is not such a weak person. Even in a desperate situation, he will definitely find a way to survive." War God Bas's eyes were firm.

This unfilial son stole his Shield, and thought he didn't know...

However, ten times the defense power, he should have no problem surviving.

Full Moon Queen and Liuli both stared at the gate, saying nothing.

But the nervousness on their faces, compared to usual, was like they had become different people.

Just then, the dust-sealed gate opened.

Golden light shone.

Everyone's hearts trembled.

"Back? How many came back!" Furnace Archbishop clenched his fist.

The next second, only the screams of "Ahhhhh!" came from behind the gate.

Immediately after, came a booming loud noise, even the earth trembled.

Naturally, a huge monster ball made of countless human faces rushed out from inside that door.

"Damn, this is... a Three-Faced Monster Ball! No, it's upgraded again, this is a Multi-Faced Monster Ball!"

"Did the Abyss attack from inside the World Tree Gate?!"

"I surrender! Don't strangle me!"

On the Audience Seats, the candidates who had not entered the door for the Assessment all stood up, their expressions panicked.

That day, they once again recalled the fear of being ruled by the Three-Faced Monster Ball.

"This is..." Several Legendaries looked at the giant ball, then immediately moved their gaze onto Bas.

They had watched the whole process in the Huan Think Ying Think, so they knew where this thing came from.

Bas clenched his fist, his face turning green and purple, his head about to explode: "This unfilial son!"

Originally, his son was still alive, and he had been quite happy about it.

But as soon as he saw his son appear in the form of a Three-Faced Monster Ball, he wanted to practice the Small Instrument again.

"Anyway, first stop them, and see what happened." The Order High Priest floated up, put his hands together: "Order — Dust-Cleaning Hand!"

A golden barrier appeared in front of the constantly sprinting Multi-Faced Monster Ball; after hitting it, it disintegrated into individual candidates.

These candidates were sticking out their tongues, their eyes turning into the shape of @@.

Immediately, a golden hand emerged from the barrier, caught the candidates, and began to heal them.

"Your Order Divine Art has improved again, Karluoluo Qing." Liuli couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Compared to you, I'm still far behind, Yenifer Qing." The Order High Priest slowly placed the candidates on the ground, furrowed his brow: "Everyone, count the heads, see who hasn't come back!"

"Yes!"

Several examining examiners hurried forward.

Liuli's gaze also kept wandering through the crowd.

Wandering along with her was the Full Moon Queen.

"Where is Li Cheng, where did Li Cheng go?" Half a minute later, Liuli, who had searched N times carefully, ran to the center of the crowd in extreme impatience: "Has anyone seen Li Cheng?"

"Li Cheng? No, haven't seen him! He... is not among the candidates who came out." The examiners replied with difficulty: "Sorry, Yenifer Qing, please move aside a little, these candidates need treatment."

"You're talking nonsense, Li Cheng can't possibly not be in here!" Liuli grabbed the examiner's collar.

"Yenifer Qing..."

The Legendaries' hearts trembled, and they couldn't help but look toward the Full Moon Dean.

After confirming their own candidates were safe, they immediately began searching for Li Cheng's figure.

The reason was no other: this genius had left too deep an impression on everyone in the first two rounds.

So, when they confirmed Li Cheng was not among these people, they all regretfully looked toward the Full Moon Dean.

Normally, explorers would return from inside the door together after the Secret Realm ended.

In other words, these people were the final survivors.

It seems that Dean Adult's quasi-disciple is more likely to meet misfortune than good fortune.

"This... is truly too regrettable..."

The Full Moon Queen said nothing, only looking at the door, not knowing what she was thinking.

Just then, light flashed again inside the door.

Everyone's hearts, which had just died, rose again, and Liuli let go of the examiner's collar, staring fixedly at the World Tree's gate.

Two seconds later, Karenina Miss with a head full of purple hair walked out from inside the door. Her gaze was somewhat vacant, as if she was trying hard to recall something.

Liuli had not yet acted, but the Full Moon Queen flew over first: "Little Guy, are there other survivors behind you?"

"Survivors..." Karenina blankly raised her head: "I, I don't know... where is this..."

"Li Cheng, where is Li Cheng, is Li Cheng behind you?" Liuli asked anxiously.

"Yenifer Qing." The Full Moon Queen glanced at her: "This is the aftereffect of the World Tree; her memory has been erased."

"Then let her remember." Liuli condensed Spiritual Power in her palm without hesitation, and the expression on her face became more and more frenzied.

"Yenifer Qing, please mind your demeanor; using the Truth Spell on a candidate is taboo." The Full Moon Queen grabbed her wrist: "And it wouldn't work anyway!"

"How do you know it doesn't work without trying? Let go of me!" Liuli looked at her viciously, her blue eyes gradually turning into vertical pupils.

"Are you crazy." The Full Moon's gaze sank a little bit.

"Li Cheng Brother..." Just then, Karenina murmured, clutching her head: "City Hall, Prison, um... Vivian... Li Cheng Brother... my head hurts so much."

The purple-haired girl fell down in pain, but in the next second was embraced by the Full Moon Queen.

This is the aftereffect of the World Tree Journey, the most normal reaction.

Loss of memory, leaving only fragmentary clues.

So, others had no special reaction.

Only the Full Moon Queen had already raised stormy waves in her heart.

"What did she say? She said Vivian?"

She actually knows my name? That's right, they saw me, they saw me who was born there.

Li Cheng Brother...

Vivian's hands holding Karenina were trembling.

In her eyes, Li Cheng's figure kept overlapping with that person from ten thousand years ago in her memory.

Could it be him?

Could it be,

him...

"Give this child to me, I will find a way to make her speak." Liuli narrowed her eyes, a blue storm rising beneath her feet: "I guarantee."

She is exactly that kind of madwoman, willing to pay any price for what she seeks.

Back then, to fight the Abyss, she was able to endure the torment of lust for over forty years.

Now, for Li Cheng, she can even directly wage war against the Full Moon Queen.

For a moment, a sword-drawn, bow-bent atmosphere gathered over the exam venue.

The Legendaries also all flew down, surrounding the two of them.

It's just that they were somewhat doubtful.

Wait, isn't Li Cheng the Full Moon Queen's prospective disciple?

How come the one trying to snatch him is Liuli? Hiss, have your roles been reversed?

In the audience seats, the melon-eating candidates all hid under their chairs; they feared being caught in the battle, but didn't want to give up such a rare big melon.

So, they could only eat melon in trembling fear.

It was also just then that the World Tree's doors gently closed.

Immediately after, everyone heard that ethereal voice.

【World Tree's Doors: Year 1345 Before Common Era, Abyss Domain — City of Deception】 not yet ended.

"Phew, because of special reasons, it's still continuing?" The Furnace Archbishop let out a long breath: "Director Adult, Ye Ni Fei Qing, please stop, there's still a turn for the better."

"Yes, you two, wait quietly for the result." The Order High Priest also persuaded.

"..." Liuli frowned, withdrawing the storm gathered around her.

The other several Legendaries also all let out a breath, quietly awaiting the World Tree's voice.

Their hearts once again hung suspended.

【Abyss Domain — City of Deception subjected to interference of unknown cause.】

【Difficulty rating changed from Four-Stage SSS Rank to Seven-Stage SSS Rank】

【Extreme Danger! Extreme Danger! Extreme Danger!】

【Current remaining explorers: 1】

The voice departed, the whole venue fell into a stretch of silence.

The Legendaries looked at each other in dismay, mouth corners twitching.

A few seconds later, unknown who suddenly opened their mouth: "Hehe, alright then, the suspended heart finally died."

Seven-Stage SSS Rank? This TM is a difficulty candidates can handle? The Academy's ordinary teachers would struggle dealing with such an exploration!

"I feel we should still put our work focus on the candidates' psychological comfort, strive to find the cause of the secret realm's change." Tifeng sighed: "Prevent such a tragedy from repeating."

"Right." Professor Jerryl gloated: "A seven-stage secret realm, we have no need to wait here anymore, it's already over."

"I think... Li Cheng most likely sensed the secret realm's difficulty in advance, covered the other candidates' departure, stayed inside to hold the rear, didn't make it out in time." War God Bas analyzed: "After all, he's always been such a noble person."

This one is even more heavyweight, already starting to brain-supplement reasons why Li Cheng can't come out.

But regardless of which Legendary, none believe Li Cheng can clear a secret realm of this level.

The gap between Second Stage and Seventh Stage is simply too large.

If one must use a single word to describe this gap.

Then "despair" can be said to be extremely fitting.

Among everyone, only Liuli and the Full Moon Queen quietly stared at that door, unknown what they were thinking. — Another side.

Year 1345 Abyss.

Deep dark land wrapped by the Great Will.

Grim white bones formed continuous mountain ranges, in the bleak cold air floated a blood smell that would not dissipate for ages.

Darkness without any sunlight, relying only on blue eerie flames to maintain visible light.

One purple, one black, two figures continuously leaped in the thick darkness.

The sound of blade collision, in the silent soundless world, appeared exceptionally clear.

"I say, Deception Mother God, is it necessary? I merely refined two of your small towns, is it worth such rage? So petty."

The Regeneration Witch split in half, teleported onto a giant beast's skull.

Her body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, in a moment completely good as new.

A pure white long robe wrapped her alluring body curves, pale hair, pale eyelashes, pale skin, almost all colors on her were pale like albinism, only those eyes, flashing with thunder's deep purple.

"Hehe, interesting, you a thief, instead accuse me of being petty?"

The Deception Mother God floated in the sky, she wore a purple long robe, on her face a purple silk scarf covering her eyes, face not clearly visible.

But her body did not match her attire.

Inside that dignified elegant robe, hidden was actually a small loli only about 1.4 meters tall.

And on that purple robe, covered all over with eyeballs and mouths, staring at the Regeneration Witch.

"Oh my, just some Abyss Demon Race souls, you won't lose much." The Regeneration Witch shrugged: "Us fighting like this will never end, right? How about, you let me go? I promise to refine a little less in the future!"

"Hehe, you really aren't a thing." The Deception Mother God smiled: "Rest assured, even if you're already a Demigod, I have plenty of methods to kill you."

Speaking, the two women once again clashed in battle.

Although the battle situation was very unfavorable to the Regeneration Witch, her face always wore a calm smile.

She had already made arrangements in advance, sent people to steal the Deception Mother God's lair.

Just fight half a day more, her lair will catch fire.

Then, she'll know she fell for the tiger away from mountain scheme, and slink back.

But the poor Deception Mother God doesn't know at all, this is only the scheme's first layer.

Actually, the lair catching fire is still a decoy scheme! Using this time, the Regeneration Witch can go to the City of Deception, activate the Land Transmutation Array, directly refine all life in that city.

Just now, she used the chance when the Deception Mother God was tired from fighting, already transmitted the speakable parts of the plan, including the prayer to activate the altar and the altar's location, into confidant Anka's insignia.

At this moment, Anka should have already opened the Altar's door and be preparing to activate the Ritual.

Although due to the Deception Mother Goddess's interference, she had no way to contact Anka.

But it doesn't matter; Anka is her most loyal and also smartest confidant, absolutely will not make a mistake.

As for Anka betraying — this kind of thing, that is even more absolutely impossible to happen.

After all, the Land Transmutation Array's activation conditions are two: one is that over 95% of lives within the array become Soul Bodies.

Two is that one must carry a Witch's scent on their body.

Joke, Deception City's millions of population, besides her the Rebirth Witch, who can in a short time complete this magnitude of Slaughter?

Inside Deception City, where to find a second Witch? Everything is within her control.

"Hehe, Deception Mother Goddess, just you also qualified to be called Deception?"

"Wait until I refine Deception City, I'll come back to slowly deal with you this little bitch! This grudge of beating me for seven days and seven nights, we'll settle slowly!"

"You thought I'm at the First Layer, actually I'm at the First Thousand Layer!"
