All Things Return to the Source: I Can Extract the Origin of Anything

Lin Yuan, an ordinary young man in the city, gains a pair of eyes called the Origin-Returning Eyes in an accident. They can see the true nature of all things, and he awakens a mysterious ability known as the All Things Return to Origin System. From then on, whether he encounters antiques buried in dust, discarded materials, or rare plants and treasures of heaven and earth, he can see their origins, extract their essence, and make it his own.

In his hands, damaged ancient paintings regain their vitality, and the millennia-old spiritual energy within them helps him refine his divine sense. He sees through long-lost martial arts manuals at a glance and masters techniques thought lost forever. The power struggles within business empires become stepping stones to his rise, thanks to his foresight and his ability to turn stone into gold.

As ancient traditions of cultivation quietly revive in the modern city, and the forces hidden behind its glittering surface gradually emerge, Lin Yuan uses the power of All Things Returning to the Origin to restore lost legacies and gather resources. Step by step, he grows from an ordinary antique restorer into a mighty urban cultivator who can stir up storms and reshape the world. He must not only appraise every rare treasure under heaven, but also forge a path of cultivation all his own in this worldly realm!
