Farming and Cultivating: Seeking Immortality Through Withered Wood

Because Lu Qing has a useless five-element spiritual root, he receives only three small plots of farmland, a yellow ox, and a thatched hut when his family divides its property. Then he gains the recognition of a piece of deadwood, setting him on the path to a comeback.

He starts from the land, using the grafting techniques he learned in his previous life to turn the tables against the odds and grow crops at low cost.

"The Heavenly Dao abhors perfection! I reached the pinnacle of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, only to end as dust beneath the tribulation... Only by embracing all five elements and uniting them as one can you find a sliver of life... Those who come after me... remember this..."

He endures countless trials along the way, eventually unlocking the secrets of the withered wood, inheriting its legacy, and proving the Dao in his quest for immortality!
