Synopsis

[The story has only just started, so the rating is low.]

[Plot-focused, with romance as a secondary element. There is a pairing!]

[A growing female lead and a growing male lead. This is not a wish-fulfillment novel, and there are no golden fingers. Both leads face plenty of hardship!]

[The female lead is chatty and has a performative personality. If that’s not for you, please move along!]

Gu Ning transmigrates into a book as the older sister of the original heroine, Gu Rou, also known as a human medicine jar.

The heroine damages her spiritual root? They dig out her sister’s. The heroine goes blind? They take her sister’s eyes.

The heroine gets kidnapped? They trade her sister for her.

The heroine falls off a cliff? They make her sister jump after her and die too.

All these ridiculous stunts are pulled off by Qin Mian, the morally ambiguous original male lead. Yet Gu Ning falls deeply in love with him, comes to hate her own sister, and ultimately meets a grisly end.

What is this ridiculous angst story wearing the skin of a cultivation novel? Do the heroine and the villainess really have to fall for a possessive male lead?

Gu Ning is at her breaking point. There are countless men in the world, and she doesn’t love or care for a single one of them. She also teaches the love-struck heroine to renounce love and desire, and together they set off on the path of female-led cultivation, protecting their exceptional spiritual roots and climbing to the peak of life.

The sect’s eldest senior brother, second senior brother, and third senior sister, dragged into the grind against their will, stare blankly at their hardworking junior sister hauling bricks. Can’t we take a break?

“Eldest Senior Brother, do you want to be driven to your death?”

“Second Senior Brother, do you want a sword through the heart?”

“Third Senior Sister, do you want to become the demon clan’s young master’s servant?”

All three shake their heads in unison.

“Then get grinding alongside your beloved junior sister!”

The original male lead, who knows how the story goes: “???”

This isn’t right. Why can’t I control the heroine? Why can’t I beat a minor character

I want books similar to The Mortal Girl’s Road to Immortality. I don’t want the kind where the female lead transmigrates into a villainous cannon-fodder character, escapes her original sect, joins another sect, and then discovers that her senior brothers, senior sisters, and master are all villainous cannon fodder who blindly adore her before being killed, having their hearts dug out, being drained of blood, and having their spiritual roots and bones removed. I reject all of that.

Very good. The plot is tight and the writing is smooth, capturing that unrestrained feeling. I think Gu Ning is... Well, carefree and unrestrained, seemingly funny, but actually quite deep inside—or rather, very intelligent. She's like a smiling tiger, but not quite. A radiant young man. In this novel, the word "young man" has a concrete form for the first time.

I've read the first fifty chapters, and the author's writing is excellent. Everyone's personality is very distinct. The scene where they search for Zhou the Beauty together feels so real; I can almost picture them together. So far, I really enjoy it! I just hope the author doesn't abandon the story or stop updating! The pain of following a serial is unbearable!

It's very good, but there aren't enough scenes. Before reading the comments, I thought there wouldn't be any romantic pairings.

Super, super good!! The writing flows smoothly throughout, and every plot point is well-written. Watching these teenagers level up together, face challenges together, and remain undeterred even in dire straits, firmly believing in their convictions, made me truly understand the meaning of "spirited and vigorous," and gave the word "youth" a more concrete meaning to me.

This book is quite interesting and super good, but isn't the male lead Zhou Da Meiren?

This is absolutely fantastic! The plot is incredibly rich, with foreshadowing and resolutions that make it feel so full and engaging. I truly love this book. Please, author, update soon! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

It's quite good, with each scene seamlessly connected to the next, but why is the rating so low? 🥺

There aren't any major flaws so far. I've been looking for a book where both the male and female leads grow and develop, and I was almost ready to give up when someone actually recommended one on the book drought forum.

So good!!! I love watching it!!! The female lead's personality is great. When will it update? It's great, I love reading it, but I've reread it three times already. Who is the female lead? What happened back then? Does the male lead have an identity? Is the God of Time the female lead or the original female lead? Keep up the good work, author!
