My Legend Still Exists in the Cultivation World

water and lightning, but he could also combine the two elements as well.
He was more excited by this finding than having an Omnispirit body!

“Cheep, this is quite a big perk that you have!” The blue phoenix, grooming its feathers beside Jing Yue, quipped suddenly.

“Perk?”

“The Midas’ Touch!” At the perplexed look on Jing Yue’s face, the blue phoenix said feebly, “I’m trying to say that your luck is very good.”

“Thank you.” Jing Yue stroked the chicken’s head.
The flattered blue phoenix froze in a daze, then turned its head so high that it almost broke its neck.

The next morning, a fully refreshed Jing Yue stepped out of the hut.
He spent the entire night cultivating, and the tiny filament of spiritual energy in his Dantian was now much bigger.

As Jing Yue used his divine consciousness to hide his cultivation level, Old man Liu did not notice anything different, and passed a set of garment to Jing Yue, “I modified it from some old clothes, just bear with it for a while.”

Immediately, he noticed the bird perched on Jing Yue’s shoulder, “Where did this little chick come from, it even has blue feathers?”

The blue phoenix crooked its head regally, beady eyes focused on Jing Yue, waiting for his introduction.

Jing Yue, “This wild pheasant flew in from the window yesterday evening, and it kept following me around for some strange reason.”

Blue phoenix, ‘???’

Lil Pebble, who was in Old man Liu’s arms, looked at the blue phoenix curiously and said softly, “Big Brother, does the bird have a name?”

“Chirp-chirp or Ji-ji, perhaps,” Jing Yue said nonchalantly, since those were the sounds it made.

Unexpectedly, that resulted in a fierce resistance from the blue phoenix.
Although its wing-feathers were not fully grown out yet, it flapped its furry little wings and flew to the top of Jing Yue’s head, clawed at his hair and squawked at his divine consciousness, “I don’t want to be called Ji-ji!”

In some worlds, Ji-ji meant ‘that thing’!

(TN: Jing Yue was referring to 叽叽, the sound made by birds.
The Blue Phoenix, on the other hand, was referring to 鸡鸡, a slang word for the male anatomy.
Both terms sound the same.)

Jing Yue made a grab for it and grinned widely, “I’ve decided, its name will be Ji-ji.”

Blue phoenix, “…”

Old man Liu led the two humans and one ‘pheasant’ to Minisun Town, steeled his heart and paid the 2 taels of silver for the entrance fee, and that was only because Lil Pebble was still a child that he was not charged extra.

The market in this town was different from the one in the village, with a touch of prosperity to it.
Jing Yue wandered around to his heart’s content and soon realized that herbs were only found in medicinal shops, while the stalls around sold ready-made pills.

Jing Yue got some taels from Old man Liu and purchased some pills that were used by Body Forging cultivators so that he could examine it.
To his dismay, the effects of the pills were so poor that he would have had trashed it during his past life.

Jing Yue suspected that there was a lost gap in the cultivation civilization in the past ten thousand years.
Ignoring the constipated look on Old man Liu’s face, he bought more pills for research purposes, and gradually formed some hypotheses after careful observation.

After that, he found a refining shop and sold the remaining materials extracted from the desert wolf, and bought a pill furnace.

Old man Liu exclaimed in surprise, “Do you know how to refine pills?”

Jing Yue, “A little bit.”

He did not explain any further to Old man Liu, merely asking him for the location for herb-picking, and said, “Tomorrow, we shall go to the back of the mountain to pick some herbs.
Now, I will be heading to the bookstore.
You can walk around with Lil Pebble.”

“What do you want to find out? You can ask me,” the blue phoenix chirped in Jing Yue’s divine consciousness.

“Do you know what happened in the last ten thousand years?”

Blue phoenix, “That is, I have a faint idea… ermm, the sky was blood-red, the ground was full of corpses, and the two lands were split apart…”

“That’s enough, be quiet.”

“…”

When Jing Yue found the book General History of Ten Millennium, he realized that the blue phoenix was not too far from the truth.

Eight thousand years ago, the Order of Heaven and Earth went into chaos.
To seize the opportunity, a great battle ensued between the Yao tribe and the mortal world.
In the end, a mortal powerhouse slaughtered the Yao Saint in one strike, set a barrier, and imprisoned the Yao tribe in the Yao Detention Mountain.

After the great battle, however, the world went through a metamorphosis.
The two mainlands that the mortals used to live in had split into seven, and the Bipolar World had now become the World of Seven Continents.
Countless elites perished in the fight, which resulted in a loss of inheritance and legacy within the sects, and the cultivation civilization dwindled to almost nothing.

The only sects that survived from ten millennia ago were the Frostcloud Sect and Sword Inscription Sect of the righteous Dao, the Lurking Ghost Sect of the demonic Dao, the Three Realm Temple of Buddhism, and the Dragon Palace of the Dragon race.
If not for the firmly entrenched background and profound heritage of these five distinguished schools, the entire civilization of the cultivation world would be lost forever.

Jing Yue sighed deeply.
He never expected that two thousand years after his death, such a big event would have happened, and that the Frostcloud Sect had tenaciously persevered.

No wonder when he was practicing the night before, he felt that the spiritual Qi was more abundant than ten millennia ago.
It turned out that after the great catastrophe, the mortal world had had eight thousand years to recuperate.

“Eh? There are lots of opportunities to slap face!” The blue phoenix chirped from the top of Jing Yue’s head.

“Mm?”

The blue phoenix sounded very excited, “With so many ancient secret recipes lost, there are bound to be lots of valuable items and ingredients that the people don’t know of, and treated as useless scrap.
But you know about it, and I know about it, so that provides the foundation to slap their faces with.”

“Just imagine this.
When you go into a shop to buy the cheapest material, the shopkeeper will ridicule you for being too poor to afford something better.
You laugh evilly and tell them the true value of that item, dazzling everyone in the process, and the shopkeeper will regret his words.”

“Imagine another scenario, you use a spiritual herb to refine a pill, but that herb was treated like wild grass.
You’re laughed at, but you’ll produce a premium-quality pill, and slap their faces into oblivion. Cheep, cheep, cheep, I’m so looking forward to it!”

Jing Yue closed the book unhurriedly and said, “You’ve such an active imagination.
Is that the knowledge from the other worlds?”

“Humph! All the cultivation novels were written that way.
I love plotlines that involve a wolf in sheep’s clothing!” As the blue phoenix was talking, it suddenly saw a book and smacked its knee, “Ah! There’s one! Look!”

Jing Yue turned around, and his gaze fell on a set of books displayed prominently on a bookshelf.
The title of the book: The Cultivation Chronicles of Daoist-Master Jing Yuan.

Jing Yue, ‘???’

Author’s Notes:

Today’s mini theater

A long, long time ago, a baby named Jing Yuan was born.
On that day, the sky was full of colorful clouds, the village’s dogs barked and the cocks crowed, and even the old folks within a ten-mile radius grew their teeth back and the hair turned black.

Such a vision showed that Jing Yuan was not an ordinary person.

He was indeed unusual.
He could talk right after leaving his mother’s womb, and the first sentence he said was, “I’m Jing Yuan and I want to cultivate immortality.”

At one-year-old, he successfully forged his body and could lift a thousand catties of boulder.
At the age of three, his fame spread through the world and countless great forces fought to accept him as a disciple.
When he was five…

Jing Yue tosses the book down: What the heck is it writing about?!
