Other cultivators burn spirit stones to power their way to immortality.
Chu Xian cultivates by exercising his wits and exploiting loopholes in the Heavenly Dao!
After transmigrating to the cultivation world, he finds himself the head of the poorest sect around. No spirit stones? He uses an abacus to work out the 'economics of spiritual energy.' No magical artifacts? He applies the principles of physics and chemistry to make 'scientific talismans.'
While the sect's prodigies fight tooth and nail for a chance to enter a secret realm, Chu Xian and Yun Zhao, the gifted young girl he picked up, have already turned an ancient ruin into a chain business using 'venture capital theory.'
An elder sneers, 'How dare you call these paltry mortal tricks the Great Dao?'
Chu Xian smiles lazily and opens his ledger. 'Fellow Daoist, it's time to repay the spirit stones your sect owes. Or... shall I take your mountain gate as collateral?'
This is the story of a pauper who uses knowledge to turn the cultivation world upside down.
When truth becomes the mightiest divine ability, the ledgers of the Nine Heavens are already quietly in his hands.
