"This Immortal Only Knows How to Farm" is a lighthearted, feel-good power fantasy blending transmigration, cultivation, farming, and multiple heroines. The protagonist, Lin Fan, was a modern man who was reborn as a disciple of Qingyun Sect with a useless five-element spirit root. He endured endless ridicule until he unexpectedly activated a mysterious black stone and gained a portable space containing a spiritual field. From then on, he accumulated resources through farming and embarked on a unique path of dual cultivation, training both body and technique.
Starting from the Qi Refining stage, Lin Fan cultivated spiritual plants in his field and mastered alchemy, weapon forging, talisman-making, and formation arrays. He gradually improved his useless spirit root and, along the way, met several close female companions, including Lin Wanqing, Su Wan, Mu Qianqian, and Yun Mengli. They supported one another, and their feelings grew deeper over time. As his cultivation advanced, his spiritual field continued to evolve, growing from first-grade spirit soil into a chaotic farmstead, then an inner world, and eventually a newly created world.
With farming at the heart of his path, Lin Fan forged a cultivation road unlike any other. He turned the tables at the sect tournament, claimed treasures on secret-realm expeditions, resolved crises facing his sect, and ascended to the spirit realm and immortal realm, eventually becoming a Primordial Saint who stood alongside the Heavenly Dao. In the end, he took on the mantle of Dao Ancestor, creating the world anew and returning to his pastoral roots.
This book skillfully blends traditional cultivation with farming, delivering brisk pacing, one thrilling payoff after another, and heartfelt emotions as it follows a romantic journey to immortality built on proving the Dao through farming.
