A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: My Eyes Can See Through Cause and Effect

[Traditional mortal cultivation, a slow-burn rise to power, ruthless action, nuanced relationships]

A Five Elements mixed spirit root: the cultivation world’s lowest-of-the-low good-for-nothing?

Shi Yan refuses to believe fate has the final say.

With his pair of Eyes of Insight, which can see the trails of spiritual energy, he digs opportunities out of pill residue and calculates his way to survival in desperate situations.

From a Qi Refining menial to a Nascent Soul Ancestor, he slays his hypocritical master, carries on his brothers’ dying wishes, and escapes amid blood and fire on the night his sect is destroyed.

On the road to immortality, a kindred beauty pledges her sword-heart to him, while old grudges close in at every turn.

Watch as an ordinary mortal, with nothing but his humble self, seeks the Dao and ascends to the heavens along this brutal path of cultivation!
