Cultivation in Reverse: My Death-Seeking Score Is Off the Charts

Shen Qingli, a cultivator, transmigrates into a story as a cannon-fodder supporting heroine and gets bound to the “Reverse Cultivation System”: the more recklessly she courts death, the faster her cultivation rises. She breaks through by jumping off a cliff, purifies her meridians by accidentally swallowing poison, and treats tribulation lightning like a bath. On the surface, she sobs and begs to be spared; behind the scenes, she sabotages her sect and snatches opportunities, becoming the Nine Provinces' “chaos cultivator.”

No one knows that all she wants is to go home, yet they praise her as the “Chosen One.” The powerful commend her for “reshaping the Heavenly Dao through sheer audacity,” while all she thinks about is gathering spirit stones and making a getaway. The cultivation world is bound by strict rules, and the mantle of fate passes from one chosen person to the next. Only she defies convention.

The true meaning of reverse cultivation: if you can cause enough trouble, even a cannon-fodder role can be rewritten into an exception that answers to no one.
