Li Hongyi is an outer-sect menial disciple of the Xuantian Sect, a crippled cultivator with all five elements in his spiritual roots who makes a living gathering herbs.
In this low-level cultivation world, spiritual qi is scarce, resources are monopolized, and those with crippled bodies can barely begin cultivating.
Mocked after his spiritual roots are tested, he falls off a cliff and awakens a portable medicine garden. There, spiritual herbs grow a hundred times faster and rise in quality.
He tries growing inferior weeds, which become thousand-year-old specimens overnight. He secretly exchanges them for cultivation manuals and breaks through the shackles of his meridians.
Falsely accused of theft, he turns the tables, kills his attackers, and seizes their treasures. He makes a name for himself in an alchemy contest and earns a place in the inner sect.
He trades herbs for resources and stuns his fellow disciples with his alchemy skills, steadily turning his fortunes around. Who says someone with a crippled body can't ascend to immortality?
With the medicine garden at his side, his resources multiply. Growing herbs brings him to the pinnacle, and cultivation takes off at breakneck speed!
