[Leveling Up] [Playing It Safe] [Stat-Focused] [No Female Lead] [Smart Protagonist]
An overworked programmer drops dead and transmigrates into the lowest rank of the cultivation world: an odd-job disciple.
He measures as having a “Grade 3 trash spirit root” from the start. If he doesn’t break through in three years, he’ll be sent to the mines as cannon fodder?
Lin Xun gazes at the mysterious pearl in his mind, which can endlessly improve the quality of his spirit root, and gives a cold laugh.
“Stand out and you’ll die? Reveal the secrets of heaven and get struck by lightning? This cultivation world is way too dangerous. I have to keep my head down!”
And so, Tianquan Sect gains an utterly forgettable “good-for-nothing” who does nothing but farm.
In outsiders’ eyes, he’s dull-witted, bullied by everyone, and stuck forever in the Qi Refining stage.
Behind the scenes, he frantically absorbs scraps and waste, sending his spirit root soaring from Grade 3 all the way to sacred grade!
He cultivates a thousand times faster than geniuses, but only shows one-thousandth of his true speed.
He can kill a Nascent Soul monster with one punch, yet pretends to be scared witless by demonic beasts.
Change locations, let others die in your place, adopt secret identities, and scoop up every bargain.
The young prodigies fight until they’re bloody over a single spirit herb, while he quietly digs up an entire medicinal garden nearby.
The old monsters use divination to try to possess him, only for every attempt to return: “No such person found.”
“Don’t ask me why I’m so strong. It’s just good luck, and years of preparation paying off.”
No saintly heroics, no harem, no reckless charging in. This is all about steady growth: staying alive is what matters most!
