Against the Current: The Path of Cultivation is a novel brimming with the fantastical charm of immortal cultivation.
The protagonist, Lin Yu, is an ordinary boy from Qingyan Village, but he has always yearned for the world beyond. By chance, he finds a jade shard engraved with mysterious runes, giving him the opportunity to pursue immortal cultivation. With the help of an old Taoist priest at a temple, he embarks on the path of cultivation. He practices the Spirit Essence Art, striving to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and transform it into spirit essence.
As his cultivation progresses, Lin Yu begins to show his talent. When he faces wild wolves in the mountains, he easily defeats them with his own spirit essence. Later, in search of better cultivation resources and techniques, he travels to Zixia City to take part in a sect selection tournament. He demonstrates his strength at the tournament and is chosen by the Xuanfeng Sect.
After joining the Xuanfeng Sect, Lin Yu works hard at cultivation as an outer disciple, diligently completing sect missions and using his contribution points to obtain the Phantom Steps technique. But the Xuanfeng Sect soon faces a crisis: the Blood Demon Valley has set its sights on the sect's spirit mine, and Lin Yu joins the battle to defend it. He stands fearlessly against powerful foes and, at the brink of death, breaks through his bottleneck, advancing from the peak of the early Spirit Essence realm to the middle stage. He defeats the Blood Demon Valley's leader and becomes a hero of the Xuanfeng Sect. This is only the beginning of his cultivation journey. In the days ahead, he will defy one challenge after another, continually advancing toward higher realms and forging his own legend of immortal cultivation.
