I Cultivate in Hiding with a Gourd and Become an Eternal Immortal

Lu Chen finds a broken gourd and only hopes to survive a few more days in the cultivation world. To his surprise, the gourd can devour calamities and transform them into fortune, making him the greatest “variable” in Heaven’s calculations. Forced to take his place on the chessboard of Heaven and Earth, he faces the players: revived ancient evil spirits, the lurking Emperor of the Netherworld, and powerful figures from every faction, all vying to take his place. Lu Chen had only wanted to stay alive, but now he grips the gourd he has carefully nurtured. In this game, all living beings are the stakes, and the rules are the strings. This time, for the sake of a promise, the person he loves, and the world beneath his feet, he will make a move against the supreme “Heaven.” This is the story of an ordinary man who, with his life on the line, plays a game against Heaven in the face of utter despair.
