Why Is Cultivation So Miserable?

[Transmigration + Character Growth and Leveling + Mutual Devotion + Master and Disciple + Ensemble Cast]

Gu Mingyue used to be an ordinary high school student, studying from six in the morning until ten at night.

Then, in a single day, she transmigrated and became a coveted, top-tier Heavenly Spirit Root in the cultivation world. She even became the disciple of the genius sword cultivator hailed as the greatest in the entire world. The only problem was, what was she supposed to do about fainting at the sight of blood?

But if you ask why she closes her eyes when dueling someone, sorry, you’re not worthy of seeing me open them.

When an evil cultivator challenged her to a sword fight,

“I didn’t bring a sword.”

“You dare leave home without a sword?”

A long sword shot out from behind the evil cultivator…

It was just that sometimes, she felt her master looked at her a little strangely.

When she first entered the cultivation world, she’d planned to make a name for herself. Instead, hunger left her doubled over, so she went to work for spirit stones and something to eat. To top it off, half the spirit stones she got paid with were fake… Where was her System? Where was the story she’d been promised?

[The loser wandering around with a System, hoping people will mock him so he can complete his missions, is actually a chosen hero?]

[The rootless girl with a miserable past is actually the future Sword Venerable?]

[The girl with five spiritual roots actually knows the plot?]

Gu Mingyue deliberately stumbled into the cultivation world and began her grueling life as a cultivator.

The Melancholy Version

What did Gu Mingyue get out of her grueling life of cultivation? Was it endless books to read and knowledge to learn every day, or nonstop sword practice? Or perhaps the old friends who withered and fell like autumn leaves?

The love she could never voice was buried deep underground along with those who had left.

Death is the ultimate destination for us all.
