My next story will be 《Farming and Ascending to Immortality in the Cultivation World》, a farming story with a pocket dimension. If you're interested, please add it to your favorites. Sending love! The blurb is at the very bottom.
Song Qingyuan transmigrates to the cultivation world and becomes the most inconspicuous outer disciple of the Green Pine Sect.
His spiritual roots are muddled, and he has all five elements. He only made it into the sect through sheer luck. In other words, he's the sort of disciple the sect takes in just to fill out the numbers.
While everyone else cultivates immortality, he studies cooking. What's more, he brings a cooking attribute panel with him: stir-frying can trigger critical hits, and stewing soup grants skills.
In the modern world, with this golden finger, he could easily become a master chef.
In the cultivation world? ...He might as well try, even if there's no hope.
Fortunately, there really is an obscure path called culinary cultivation in the cultivation world. There are so few people on it, though, that he might have to write the manuals himself.
Song Qingyuan is delighted. He loves taking up careers at the bottom of the barrel.
When gaming, he always picks the least popular class. Naturally, when cultivating, he has to choose the rarest path, too.
He's always believed in one principle: There are no weakest classes, only players who don't know how to use them.
So while everyone else meditates in seclusion, he tosses food in a wok and stir-fries. While everyone else hunts for treasure in secret realms, he crouches by the river and stews fish soup.
With his cooking panel, he turns unwanted spiritual vegetables and herbs into outrageously expensive spirit feasts. He rakes in spirit stones and his cultivation skyrockets.
He goes from an obscure outer disciple to Chef Song, the man every inner disciple wants to recruit.
But... why does Lu Zhaoye, the aloof sword cultivator senior brother, keep hanging around his stove?
*
For some reason, this man always stops by when passing on his flying sword, takes a detour when he returns from training, and even chooses to go into seclusion right next to Song Qingyuan's stove.
Song Qingyuan has barely set up his wok when Lu Zhaoye appears without a word, leans his sword against his chest, and sits under the tree by the entrance, as solemn as a guardian deity.
Song Qingyuan asks cautiously, “Senior Brother Lu, what are you...?”
Lu Zhaoye glances at him, then looks back at the wok. “Just passing by.”
Passing by from the neighboring mountain to his stove? What precise timing.
The most absurd thing is his life-bound sword.
Sword cultivators are supposed to keep their swords with them at all times, but Lu Zhaoye's sword keeps running over to Song Qingyuan's place. It eagerly chops wood, cuts vegetables, and even fans the flames for him. It's less a weapon of murder than a kitchen assistant.
“Why is my new kitchen knife a little dull?” Song Qingyuan mutters.
The sword immediately lets out a hum and rubs its hilt against his palm, fawning shamelessly.
Lu Zhaoye calmly takes the sword back, but the tips of his ears turn bright red. “...The sword moved by itself.”
After cooking a few dishes, Song Qingyuan looks from the life-bound sword struggling frantically to dart toward the stove to Lu Zhaoye, whose ears are red enough to drip blood.
“Senior Brother, your sword wants to eat shredded pork with green peppers.”
“...”
“With extra chili, too.”
Lu Zhaoye coughs and turns away. “...Mildly spicy is fine.”
Song Qingyuan: “...”
Weren't sword cultivators supposed to be aloof? Why is he even more of a foodie than the cook?

Upcoming story
《Farming and Ascending to Immortality in the Cultivation World》
Zhou Nian wakes up one day to discover that he has transmigrated and become the lowest-ranking spirit farmer disciple of the Mystic Sky Sect.
Every day, he gets up before dawn and works until dark, growing spirit grain and tending spirit herbs. The wind and sun wear him down until he's as tired as an old ox.
While everyone else cultivates to fly through the sky and burrow through the earth, he cultivates by swinging his hoe faster than anyone else.
Luckily, there's always a way forward. He unexpectedly discovers that he has a pocket dimension, rich with spiritual energy, where anything he plants will grow, and time passes faster!
Now, while everyone else struggles for ten years to grow spirit herbs, he can harvest a crop every year, and his plants are of incredible quality!
He makes a fortune through farming, quietly saves up spirit stones, takes pills, and watches his cultivation steadily rise. He goes from an obscure outer disciple to an elite inner disciple.
But... why does Senior Brother Shen Linyi, the cold-faced sword cultivator, always show up when he's farming?
*
The first time they meet, Shen Linyi flies past on his sword and catches him sneakily switching out spiritual plants in the field. His gaze turns cold. “What are you doing?”
Zhou Nian's hand trembles. “...Fertilizing?”
The second time, Zhou Nian is secretly gathering spirit herbs in a secret realm when he turns around to find Shen Linyi leaning against a tree with his arms crossed, wearing a faint smile. “A spirit farmer disciple is here looking for opportunities, too?”
Zhou Nian laughs nervously. “...Just passing by. I happened to be passing by.”
By the Nth time they meet, Shen Linyi is waiting right outside his cave abode. “Give me half the spirit herbs in your pocket dimension,” he says calmly.
Zhou Nian is stunned. “How do you know I have a pocket dimension?!”
Shen Linyi calmly draws his sword. “Now you know.”
Zhou Nian: “...”
Weren't sword cultivators supposed to be aloof? Why is he even more obsessed with money than Zhou Nian?
