After waiting for ages without receiving a single word, Zhang Ye muttered to himself for a while, then opened the gourmet system and carefully read through the instruction manual.
"Damn it, all that excitement for nothing!"
He then discovered that there would only be a reward for successfully making a dish the first time, and there would be no more rewards after that.
Only by striving for excellence and improving the quality of this dish can one receive the corresponding reward.
"Am I supposed to learn all eight major cuisines?"
Zhang Ye thought with some sadness.
…………
Fox Hill.
"An immortal! This is the true immortal!"
Wan Biyao, the girl in the light green dress, was very excited after watching the video.
Then, when she saw the advanced technology system she had acquired, she felt a sharp pain in her testicles—oh, no, in her breasts.
Cutting-edge technology system!
From handguns with unlimited ammo to two-dimensional foils, it encompasses everything.
In particular, the last two-dimensional foil made the girl's eyes gleam with envy.
With a single strike, the entire world can be reduced from three dimensions to two dimensions!
It's comparable to a celestial being making a move!
If all of this were to happen to Zhang Ye in modern society, it would be wonderful!
However, the world of Jade Dynasty is a small world where cultivation flourishes. Although the highest level of cultivation is only the Taiqing Realm (Golden Core Realm), it is still an authentic Eastern fantasy world.
As for technology?
There wasn't even gunpowder!
Are you expecting Wan Biyao to develop a pistol or missile on her own?
Isn't that ridiculous?
"I think even cultivating to become an immortal is much easier than researching this damn thing! What kind of bullshit cheat is this! It's not even an iron finger!"
Wan Biyao looked utterly dejected.

Chapter 22 Duan Lang's Breakthrough [Third Update]
"No, I need to ask if this cheat code can be returned!"
Biyao felt increasingly uncomfortable the more she thought about it.
After making the decision, I opened the chat group on a whim.
Wan Biyao: "@Dongzhen Du'e Zhenjun, may I ask for your help? I am in a world of immortals and heroes, but I have drawn a black technology system instead. May I ask if I can change it? Waaah!"
…………
Julu City.
Dressed in a yellow Taoist robe and holding a nine-section staff, Zhang Jiao walked slowly through the city, inspecting the situation within.
With the help of the Heavenly Emperor System, Zhang Jiao decided to thoroughly inspect the tens of thousands of followers of the Taiping Dao under his command.
He did not notify anyone beforehand, nor did he disturb any of his followers; he measured this land with his own two feet.
After casting the spell, even if standing in front of one's closest disciple, the spell will not be detected.
In a very short time, he traveled to eight provinces—Qing, Xu, You, Ji, Jing, Yang, Yan, and Yu—and thirty-six regions under the Taiping Dao.
Finally, they returned to Jizhou.
During this trip, he not only witnessed the actual situation of his subordinate forces, but also the situation of all the people in the world.
More than ten years ago, the four prefectures of Ji, Qing, Xu and Yan suffered a severe drought.
Since Wang Mang usurped the Han throne, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu restored the Han dynasty and continued its rule for nearly a hundred years. Up to the current Emperor Liu Hong, there have been eleven emperors.
The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
While aristocratic families resided in palaces and pavilions, scholars from humble backgrounds could also study and learn etiquette.
Ordinary people at the very bottom of society can only bow their heads, kneel on the ground, and struggle to survive.
What's even worse is that rulers throughout history have never treated ordinary people at the bottom of society as human beings; they didn't even grant them the basic right to survival.
Like duckweed in the wind, it could be swept away at any moment by the tremors above.
Human life is as cheap as grass.
As Zhang Jiao pondered a solution, he slowly walked towards his residence. Upon seeing Wan Biyao's words, he couldn't help but smile.
Zhang Jiao: "Greetings, fellow group members. I am Zhang Jiao, a Taoist priest living in the late Han Dynasty. I was about to launch an uprising when I was fortunate enough to join the chat group and obtain the strongest Heavenly Emperor System. I am currently preparing to postpone the uprising!"
