Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 1088 - 1087: The Young Sect Master Bestows Opportunities (Seeking Monthly Pass at the Beginning of the Month)

Lu Yang gasped in shock. Song Tianjing’s ancestor was quite capable, opening a restaurant just by following recipes from the "Complete Culinary Compendium."

Was it because all the guests who had eaten there had amnesia, so there were no bad reviews? freeweɓnøvel.com

It was also a mystery where Song Tianjing’s ancestor found this book, badly damaged, without even a cover, just a dozen or so pages left in the middle.

"The book is all in classical script, can you understand it?" Not to brag, but within the current cultivators, only Old Meng and I can fully understand classical script.

"My ancestor poured his heart and soul into deciphering partial recipes; for example, for a dish that requires eighteen ingredients, my ancestor managed to decipher six."

"Based on these six ingredients and his own research, my ancestor then created the current menu of Yangyuan Building."

"The heartfelt wish passed down through generations in my Yangyuan Song Family is to decode the entire menu."

Lu Yang got it. Song Tianjing’s ancestor was lucky, deciphering only the editable parts and adding genuine research, which led to the establishment of Yangyuan Building.

"Yangyuan Song Family, it seems like you’re an influential family then?"

"Our Song Family has had Golden Core Great Abilities for generations." Speaking of heritage, Song Tianjing puffed out his chest a little, brimming with confidence.

"So, your Song Family is also a well-known and respected clan in the area?"

"I won’t lie to my senior, my Yangyuan Song Family on Fuguang Street in the North City area of Tianxing City in Qingzhou, Great Xia, is a famous establishment!"

Lu Yang: "..."

No wonder I thought from the Third Grade Sect to Super-grade Sect and couldn’t find the location of your Yangyuan Building.

"Then after you become a Spirit Chef, are you planning to take revenge on those who wronged your father?"

Song Tianjing shook his head: "I’ve already reported them for running a gambling den, and they’ve been sent away."

"This kid has Immortal Fairy’s recipes, it seems he’s quite fated with them," Fairy Eternity excitedly patted Lu Yang’s shoulder.

"Little Yang, you must give him the complete version of Immortal’s recipes right away!" Lu Yang had never imagined how malicious the Fairy could be, out to overwhelm the young cultivator’s beliefs.

Seeing Lu Yang ignoring her, Immortal Fairy stretched out her tiny foot and poked Lu Yang in the back with her pearl-like toes, persistently urging, "Hurry up, hurry up."

Lu Yang sighed in his heart, realizing that this Song lad wouldn’t be able to avoid it.

"Fairy, your recipes are after all Immortal Objects, wouldn’t it tarnish your reputation if you simply handed them over to him?"

"You make a good point, so what should we do?"

"We could put a restriction on the recipes, allowing him to unlock new parts with each realm he advances to. This way, not only will he diligently study your recipes, but he will also quicken his cultivation. With this approach, he certainly won’t disgrace you."

"That’s a good idea!"

Lu Yang returned the "Complete Culinary Compendium."

"What does this mean, senior?" Song Tianjing thought Lu Yang still didn’t believe him.

"You’re also in luck, meeting me. Take good care of this book and don’t bring it out again."

"This book relates to the Ancestor of Spirit Chef and has been declared a forbidden book by the Spirit Chef Alliance, to be destroyed upon discovery. If the people of the Spirit Chef Alliance learn that you have this book, even a damaged one, I need not spell out what would happen to you."

"A forbidden book?!" Song Tianjing had never imagined that the book passed down from his ancestors had such a significant background, being connected to the legendary Ancestor of Spirit Chef.

This was a major opportunity!

Wait a minute, the senior was telling him about such a big opportunity so easily?

Lu Yang knew exactly what Song Tianjing was thinking and said lightly, "This bit of opportunity..."

"Boss, another bowl of soup!" Yun Mengmeng called out.

"This bit of opportunity..."

"You two drink up quickly, the soup won’t taste good after it cools down." Yun Mengmeng kindly reminded them, wondering why the Second-in-command came to the store but didn’t drink soup, only talking.

"..."

Lu Yang had no choice but to pick up the spoon and slurped the soup while saying, "Heh, this bit of fortune... slurp... I don’t even care for... slurp..."

Song Tianjing, a junior cultivator, dared not defy Yun Mengmeng and also sipped the soup spoonful by spoonful.

"Who exactly are you... slurp..."

"Heavenly Court Sect... slurp... Young Sect Master."

Clatter, as Song Tianjing learned of Lu Yang’s true identity, his pupils shook, and in shock, he let the spoon slip into the bowl.

Though Lu Yang was still sipping the soup, in Song Tianjing’s eyes, he was no longer the approachable senior, but a mysterious and immensely formidable being of legend.

"You’re a smart man, you won’t tell anyone my identity, right?" Lu Yang said with a light smile, the steam from the soup enveloped him, leaving only his voice audible.

Song Tianjing nodded dumbly, and when he regained his senses, he found an additional book and a storage ring on the table, but Lu Yang and Yun Mengmeng were nowhere to be found, with only Lu Yang’s voice echoing in his ears.

"I have some connections with the Ancestor of Spirit Chef, and today I’ve taken a liking to you, so I’m giving you the original of this book."

"I’ve placed a restriction on it; as your cultivation level increases, you will see more of its content."

"In the storage ring, there are ten thousand spirit stones, consider it a gift from me, intriguing lad, I’m curious to see how far you can go in the world of Spirit Chefs, hahahaha..."

Song Tianjing, holding the original Complete Culinary Compendium, felt like he was holding a hot potato; a gift from the Young Sect Master of Heavenly Court could be either a blessing or a curse.

Lu Yang had already translated the Complete Culinary Compendium long ago, it was a challenge left to him by Immortal Fairy when he was learning Ancient Language.

The Ancient Language contained many obscure words hard to understand, and the Complete Culinary Compendium essentially covered these words; as a test, it couldn’t be more appropriate.

Song Tianjing bit his teeth, and with difficulty, made up his mind to learn!

He couldn’t wait to open the Complete Culinary Compendium after returning, but he could only understand the first ten pages, featuring just three dishes.

"Complete Culinary Compendium, authored by Yingtian Immortal. It really is the work of the Ancestor of Spirit Chef!"

Song Tianjing became extremely excited upon seeing the name Yingtian Immortal; it was an existence akin to a belief.

"Pearl Fish Soup... a dash of salt?"

Song Tianjing fell silent for a while, then continued to read:

"With the Five Poisons as supplements, mutually generating and inhibiting each other, the cycle never ends..."

"Using Firmament Tree as firewood..."

The more Song Tianjing read, the more shocked he became; so this was the work of the Ancestor of Spirit Chef, truly not something an ordinary mortal could comprehend.

"Let’s try."

Getting Firmament Tree was impossible, so he’d have to make do with ordinary kindling, and he couldn’t afford high-quality Five Poisons, only somewhat inferior ones.

Song Tianjing followed the methods of the Complete Culinary Compendium to the letter and soon produced a delicious pot of fish soup, its aroma was so tempting it assaulted the senses.

He carefully took a sip and incredulously covered his throat, stepping back twice in surprise: "Good..."

Thump, Song Tianjing fell to the ground, lying there unconscious.

He did not know how much time had passed, but when Song Tianjing woke up again the fish soup had cooled. He staggered to his feet, feeling that something was different about himself.

He sensed his body briefly and his eyes widened in surprise.

"Did I break through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage?"

He had been stuck at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage for a long time, struggling to advance, and to think he had broken through after just waking up?!

"And this physique, doesn’t it closely resemble the Poison Immune Body mentioned in the book, with Immunity to Hundred Poisons?"
