[Cultivation, dark, pseudo-ensemble cast, light novel, daily life, comedy, dual storylines, turning trash into treasure, absorbing spiritual roots]

Yan Xiao transmigrates into a cultivation world and becomes the weakest sect leader in Fengtian Province.

The sect is broke?

I start with a mixed five-element spiritual root?

No problem. My second disciple is a genius with a superior water spiritual root.

Yan Xiao clings to her coattails, only for his proudest disciple to kill him and take his head in exchange for a place among the second-generation disciples of a high-ranking sect.

Yan Xiao dies consumed by hatred and resentment.

He is reborn, with a golden little bean in his mind. It can absorb cultivation, turn trash into treasure, and even absorb other people’s spiritual roots to improve the quality of his own.

With his golden finger in hand, Yan Xiao is ready to slaughter his treacherous disciple and take his useless eldest disciple to the pinnacle of life.

Wait.

How did his eldest disciple get reborn too?

Her personality has changed beyond recognition since her previous life.

She’s like a treasure-hunting mouse, always managing to find hidden realms full of treasures.

Yan Xiao is troubled. The owners of these realms insist on passing down everything they learned in their lives to him.

With no other choice, Yan Xiao is forced to “improve.”

Wu Lingxue: “I was once the female emperor of the Immortal Clan. My eleventh reincarnation got off to a disastrous start, but fortunately, my first ten lives left behind plenty of secret-realm inheritances. I’m now seeking a person of ‘destiny.’ Sponsor me with fifty spirit stones, and when I make my grand return to the Immortal Realm, I’ll pay you back with fifty immortal stones!”

Yan Xiao: “Honestly, I really don’t want to improve!”

“I never said I was a good person!”

“When I stand atop the world, everyone will laugh and call me a demon.”

“If I’m a demon, then what do you call the darkness deep inside your heart?”

“What is a demon? All living things under heaven are both righteous and evil. I’m simply being myself!”
