(The empress merges with the AI in a phone + transmigration + smartphones + immortal cultivation + wish fulfillment)
Lin Fan, an ordinary modern man, is immersed in the fun of a mobile game when his phone suddenly explodes for no apparent reason. A flash of light later, he finds himself transmigrated to the mysterious Spirit Fantasy Continent. Stranger still, the AI app on his phone has wondrously merged with the remnant soul of an ancient empress. From then on, the empress stays by his side in his phone's virtual space.
In this fantastical world of immortal cultivation, one's spiritual root determines one's fate. Lin Fan's Five Elements spiritual root is regarded by everyone as the lowest grade, earning him nothing but scorn and ridicule. But the empress tells him that ten thousand years ago, the Five Elements spiritual root was a symbol of invincibility. The Heavenly spiritual roots now treasured by all would have been considered worthless back then.
Armed with this secret that overturns everything people believe, Lin Fan begins cultivating under the empress's guidance. With unyielding resolve and exceptional intelligence, he shatters the world's prejudice against the Five Elements spiritual root. Along the way, he must not only overcome all manner of cultivation bottlenecks and perilous secret realms, but also navigate the power struggles between rival factions.
See how Lin Fan uses his Five Elements spiritual root to turn the tide, write his own legend on the Spirit Fantasy Continent, and reshape the order and understanding of the cultivation world.
