1 Chapter 1. The Strongest Chef System

 "Senior brother Li, the disciple who bought the ingredients, has returned."

 With a light shout, the thin boy ran into the kitchen.

 Hearing the sound, Li Yang unhurriedly lifted the curtain and left the kitchen. He casually nodded.

 After the boy left, Li Yang sighed and walked to the side of the stove. A flame immediately lit up under the stove.

 "Heh, I was a chef in a hotel before I transmigrated.

 If I still have to be a chef in the Sect after transmigrating, wouldn't I have cultivated for nothing? "

 Although he was grumbling, Li Yang's hands didn't slow down. He started to sort the things on the stove very skillfully.

 After a while, the boy led the person who bought the ingredients and helped Li Yang prepare the meal.

 After receiving the food, Li Yang took his portion and returned to the house.

 "It's been almost seventeen years now,"

 That's right; Li Yang wasn't originally from this world. Li Yang used to be an unknown chef on Blue Planet.

 Who would have thought that when he woke up, he would find that he had reincarnated into a completely unfamiliar world?

 Not only that but there were also cultivators and cultivation sects in this world.

 The small village that Li Yang was born in was under the influence of the Nine Planet Sect.

 Speaking of the Nine Planet Sect, it was the largest Sect within a radius of 9000 miles. It was located in the mountains, and it said that in the core of the Sect, there were nine prominent peaks, also known as the Nine Glory sect. Each had an elder on top and the disciples of the elders below.

 As for the Nine Glory Peak, 36 inner sect peaks and 72 outer Sect peaks intersected with each other, forming the Nine Glory Peak.

 There were countless disciples in the huge Nine Planet Sect, and most of them lived in the outer Sect's seventy-two peaks. Only those who had reached the foundation establishment stage and passed the assessment could move one step further into the inner Sect's thirty-six peaks.

 After knowing all this, Li Yang decided to join the Nine Planet Sect.

 As a time traveler, who didn't want to step on the road of cultivation one day? From then on, he would swallow a golden core, and his life would be in his own hands, not in the hands of the heavens!

 But what Li Yang didn't expect was ...

 In the annual disciple recruitment ceremony of the Nine Planet Sect, Li Yang's cultivation aptitude was almost non-existent.

 If it was someone with power and influence, they might even be able to bribe them and get a status as an outer sect disciple.

 It was a pity that Li Yang's parents in this life were just ordinary villagers in the village. How could they possibly borrow so much money to bribe for Li Yang?

 Fortunately, there was always a way out. Li Yang, who had a skill, finally chose to join the Nine Glory Sect's outer Sect dining hall. After passing the test, he was guided by the outer sect elder and became a registered disciple of the Nine Glory Sect. He was barely considered an official member of the Sect and was taught the lowest entry-skill level.

 To this day, Li Yang has worked in the outer cafeteria for a year.

 However, Li Yang's aptitude was indeed too poor. Until now, his cultivation level was still hovering around the early stage of Qi cultivation. Therefore, he was not qualified to become an outer disciple and live in the 72 peaks. Besides, when he started work, Li Yang had to return to the village to live.

It's extraordinary. We're all transmigrators.

" Why hasn't my cheat awakened after transmigrating for so long? Am I so unlucky that I don't even have a cheat? "

 He thought about how he had been cultivating for so long, yet he could not break through again.

 Li Yang started to feel frustrated.

 It was night.

 Li Yang, who had finished his work on the mountain, carried some ingredients down the mountain and returned to the mountain village under cover of night.

 After returning to his room, Li Yang sat cross-legged on his bed and started cultivating.

 After cultivating for a long time, the spiritual power in Li Yang's body was still extremely stagnant and couldn't be strengthened a single bit.

 He shook his head and sighed. Just as Li Yang was about to end his cultivation, a clear mechanical voice suddenly sounded in Li Yang's ear.

 [ Congratulations, the most powerful Master Chef System has been awakened. Binding! ]

 Hearing the voice beside his ear, Li Yang, who was still a little tired, immediately became wide awake, and his eyes widened.

 God, it's been 17 years, and the damn system is finally here!

 "Master Chef system? Could it be that you can't separate your fate from cooking in this life?"

 [ The system has awakened. ]

 Upon hearing the voice, Li Yang focused his attention, and a panel appeared before him.

 [ Best Chef system has been successfully bound! ]

 Li Yang

 [ Identity ]: Honorary disciple

 [ Cultivation: Refined Qi Level 1 ]

 [ Fame ]: Silent and nameless (can be increased by the good reviews of cooked dishes)

 [ Root Bone ]: Mixed spirit root (innate condition linked to cultivation speed and comprehension ability, can not be improved under normal circumstances)

 [ Vitality ]: Mortal (can be improved through training, linked to strength)

 [ Cultivation technique: Elementary Qi refinement ]

 [ Beginner's gift package is being distributed ... ]

 [ You have received complete knowledge about the ingredients in the current world! ]

 [Recipe obtained: Golden egg fried rice!]

 After looking at his panel, Li Yang started to study the functions of his system.

 After searching the interface for a long time, Li Yang closed the interface and opened another interface called [Recipe].

 In this interface, many gray pictures hadn't been unlocked yet. On them was delicious food that made people drool.

 A line of powerful, eye-catching words was at the top of all the recipes.

"The most powerful master chef system is at your service. The host can unlock recipes through system missions and other methods. After unlocking, the host can obtain various rewards when the host makes a corresponding dish according to the recipe and is tasted by others."

 [ Rewards include innate ability, vitality, cultivation, etc.]

"Congratulations, you have unlocked the golden egg fried rice recipe!"

 The menu at the top of the menu page slowly began to shine. The grains of rice and soft eggs were shining on the menu. Just looking at the menu, Li Yang suddenly felt hungry!

 [ Golden egg fried rice: Limited to 99 servings per day. Each person can increase the host's vitality by 2 points and root bone by 2 points. Required ingredients: Eggs, rice, peanut oil ... ]

 A vivid figure appeared in Li Yang's mind as the recipe was unlocked.

 The figure's face could not be seen clearly. He was holding a big pot in his hand and was elegantly and calmly stir-frying the rice in his hand. Following the figure's movements, Li Yang became increasingly familiar with the cooking method of this golden egg-fried rice!

 When he had entirely mastered the cooking method of this golden egg fried rice, Li Yang was eager to try it and immediately went to the kitchen.

 As he scanned through the items, notifications popped up one after another.

 [ It's just plain overnight rice. Nothing is outstanding about it. ]

 [ It's an ordinary fire-patterned egg from an adult fire-patterned hen. It's not fertilized and was produced yesterday afternoon. ]

 [ It's just ordinary peanut oil. There's nothing special about it. ]

 [ The black iron frying pan is indestructible. Ordinary power can't hurt it at all. ]

 [ A black-iron vegetable knife, a killer of low-level ingredients. No bones can last a second under its blade, no! ]

 Li Yang was able to identify the quality and attributes of anything that was related to a chef with a single glance.

 Now, cooking would be even easier!
