"Begin by transforming into the spirit and driving it, and then transform into the spirit" - the decree of the imperial court is better spoken than sung.
Lin Yuan, a poor boy, possesses the Colorless Heavenly Spiritual Root, but he is rejected by the sect because he cannot pay the examination fee of five spiritual stones. Those ancestors who kept talking about "motivating future generations" left the best resources to their descendants, leaving only the elixirs that were about to expire and scrap copper and iron that were about to expire for the poor.
"Human beings are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless? If they become gods first, they will have descendants."
"My transformation into a god is the result of the efforts of three generations. If you want to blame me, it's your ancestor who didn't transform into a god."
"Whether you want to cultivate this immortal or not, if you don't cultivate, you will have to cultivate it as a human being."
Facing this world of cultivation monopolized by aristocratic sects, Lin Yuan had no background, no resources, and only three low-grade spiritual stones and a broken copper coin inscribed with "Save money to cultivate immortality" in his pocket.
No spiritual stone? Then break a penny in half and spend it.
No skills? Then pick up scraps that others don't want from abandoned mines.
No backer? Then become the first generation ancestor of the gods yourself.
This is the story of a poor boy who used the fewest spiritual stones and the most earthly methods to fight his way through the world of immortality. We don't rely on the shadow of our ancestors, we don't rely on talent, we only rely on one word - province.
Save money to cultivate immortality, and whatever you save is your life.
