In the cultivation world, having no spiritual root means a death sentence.
Lin Xiaoman refuses to accept his fate.
With no father to rely on, no master to seek out, and no spiritual root to cultivate immortality, this young man inherits a compass from his poor fortune-teller grandfather and heads to Hunxuan City on the frontier. There, he reads his first fortune:
"Auspicious. Twenty thriving shops, so profitable you'll be rolling in rent money."
Relying on his family's inherited divination arts and the copy of Treatise on the Five Elements his grandfather left behind, Lin Xiaoman sets up a fortune-telling stall outside a restaurant. A wooden sign bears six words: Only three readings a day.
His clients include a Golden Core cultivator stuck at a bottleneck before the Tribulation, a nine-tailed fox demon who can't make sense of romance, and a metal-element sword cultivator whose sword aura is always spraying his girlfriend in the face. Even the exalted Xuanqiong Immortal Venerable of the Immortal Alliance comes with an unspeakable secret of his own, obediently crouching in line at the stall.
But having no spiritual root remains an obstacle. Some mock him for being presumptuous; others secretly investigate his grandfather's past. And the thing that falls out of a hidden compartment in Treatise on the Five Elements is dragging him into a far more dangerous whirlpool than simply buying shops and collecting rent...
Why did the most powerful feng shui master in the Qingxuan Realm die an unnatural death?
This novel centers on the Five Elements and feng shui, along with traditional divination. Its narrative blends a suspenseful main plot with unusual client cases told in episodic installments: every two or three chapters brings a fun, standalone fortune-telling case, while a family secret runs beneath the surface across all six volumes. Lighthearted, funny, and down-to-earth, with no cultivation or leveling up, it follows an ordinary man with no spiritual root as he uses the old ways of his ancestors to forge a third path in a cultivation world where everything depends on talent.
After all, the idea of an Immortal Venerable asking a fortune-teller for feng shui advice is a joke.
Until it isn't.
