For three years, Lin Fan, an outer sect disciple of the Qingyang Sect, has been regarded as the sect's laughingstock because he cannot sense spiritual energy, leaving him a good-for-nothing cultivator in everyone's eyes. Just as he is sent to chop wood on the back mountain and has nearly given up all hope of cultivating, he unexpectedly discovers that he can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth naturally just by breathing. For him, spiritual energy that others must focus and toil to refine simply flows naturally with every breath.
He cultivates while eating, walking, chopping wood, and even sleeping, as spiritual energy continues to pour into his dantian with every breath. While other disciples exhaust themselves trying to break through the Qi Refining stage, he quietly advances with each breath. While his fellow sect members fight tooth and nail for resources, his everyday routine alone lets him easily crush his peers.
The mockery he once endured turns to shock, and the contempt of old becomes awe. From an abandoned good-for-nothing to a rising star of the sect, from an obscure outer sect disciple to a figure who shakes the world, Lin Fan takes the easiest path of all and sets out on a cultivation journey unlike any that came before.
This is a story of “while others cultivate bitterly, I win by doing nothing.” When breathing becomes the strongest cultivation technique, watch Lin Fan breathe his way to godhood, one step at a time, before everyone's eyes!
