Synopsis

[Traditional fantasy] [Eastern fantasy] [No heroine] [Cautious cultivation] [Portable pocket dimension] [Builds his own sect and faction]

The protagonist’s soul transmigrates into a cultivation world, where he has an attribute panel that can check his condition at any time, as well as a restored paradise within a pocket dimension.

[Stage One: Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment] The protagonist develops cautiously. He works for others, lives as a rogue cultivator, takes on disciples and builds his own sect, develops his paradise, and joins various sects to mooch resources. (This is also the early low point. He stays wherever there are resources for growth and runs when there aren’t. Once he’s powerful enough, we’ll see how the plot develops.)

[Stage Two: Golden Core and Nascent Soul] The protagonist builds up his paradise, bringing in outside business while keeping his sect within.

[Stage Three: Deity Transformation and before Void Refinement] It turns out the cultivation world is made up of individual planets. Before Void Refinement, all the grudges and conflicts are confined to each planet. He stays true to himself and cultivates cautiously.

[Stage Four: Void Refinement, Body Integration, Mahayana, and Tribulation Transcendence] He ventures through the universe and witnesses the cultivation systems of various planets.

[Stage Five: Rogue Immortals] The strongest beings in the starry sea of the “Mortal Realm”: rogue immortals.

[Stage Six: Immortal Realm] His adventures after ascending to the “Immortal Realm,” where he witnesses the true forms of all kinds of immortals.

[Stage Seven: Sea of Chaos] The ultimate great terror.

This is my first time writing, so please forgive any shortcomings, dear readers.

And if you could spare a moment to leave a rating, I’d be very grateful. Thank you!

A Rogue Cultivator Who Finds an Inheritance, Has No Backing, Competes for Resources to Cultivate, and Joins No Faction

The protagonist inherits a legacy, has no background, and joins no faction. They steal resources, including from powerful sects, then run after every fight and every robbery. Once they're stronger, they come back to steal more. Basically, they go it alone and have very few friends. Something along those lines.

Looking for Traditional Fantasy, No Female Lead, No Romantic Ambiguity

Does no one really write pure cultivation novels with no female lead? A golden finger is fine too. I want the kind where the protagonist steadily cultivates step by step, basically a typical cultivation story, but with no female lead. It absolutely must have no female lead!!!
