Cultivation: I Become the Sun and Burn the World to Ashes

[High-IQ Protagonist] [Decisive and Ruthless]

Tricked into mining? Cultivation techniques that devour people? A foreman who eats people ahead, and evil spirits thirsting for your life behind?

The only things sustaining him are his determination to return home and a three-year promise to his childhood sweetheart.

In this deadly predicament, Chen Yi kindles the first flame of resistance deep within his soul...

[Origin of Ten Thousand Flames: Flame Seed Compendium, activated!]

Mortal flames, spirit flames, mystic flames, earth flames, heavenly flames... Every flame in the world is fuel for me!

Kindle flames, play with flames, control flames, command flames, transform flames... I turn fire into the Dao, and it is mine to wield!

The bloodflame of the mine overseer is the nourishment for my advancement!

The soul cores of the ghosts in the spirit realm are medicine for my spirit!

The ghostfire of the mine's evil spirits is a treasure that protects my path!

The tribulation fire high above the nine heavens is my furnace for tempering my body!

From then on, I walk through the darkness, my very being its only light and warmth.

Five-element spiritual roots are no longer good-for-nothing, but perfect fuel capable of burning everything away!

The day I gather every flame beneath the heavens and fuse them into one...

will be the day this rotten cultivation world sees the sun descend and burn away all filth and injustice!

"I am the sun. You all... will be reduced to ashes."

Remember:

At first, fire is but a glimmer!

At its peak, fire burns the world and becomes the sun!

"I cultivate not for eternal life, but to become a torch that lights this darkness."

Dragged into a ghost realm? The demonic path treats human life like grass, the aristocratic clans hold themselves above everyone, and the righteous path plays mind games. Whatever the Daoist heirs, prodigies, and Qi Refinement cultivators may be, they all end up dead at the hands of me, a five-element spiritual root cultivator with barely two months of training.

Just out of the ghost realm, and what?

I have to impersonate the young master of the Zhou family, whom I killed... and take part in the Nine Dragons Contest for the Throne?
