Cultivation of immortals in the Xuandial world is not about seeking enlightenment, but about competing for position. The way of heaven is incomplete, and the "personality" of the great realm has long been locked. If you want to climb up, it's useless to just have qualifications and resources. You have to make room for others first. Sects, aristocratic families, and Taoist courts all talk about rules, but they are actually dividing them up: mortals use longevity to grow medicine, mining slaves use flesh and blood to nourish their veins, and low-level monks use their lives to pave the way for higher-level people. The protagonist comes from a farmer's family in Dongli Yuling. His parents died from the birth tax, his sister was taken as a medicine boy, and he himself was sold into the Black Tooth Mine in the West Bone Region, becoming a repairman who could be damaged, filled in holes, and written off at any time. Other people's cultivation of immortality relies on the opportunity of a master. He first learned one thing when cultivating immortality - how much a person is worth in this world is usually written in an account book. The protagonist digs out the incomplete ancient artifact "Remnant Account Stele" from the depths of the corpse mine. He can see the hidden accounts between human life, interests, and cause and effect. He can also fold spiritual stones, flesh and blood, life span, and even emotions into his own cultivation. It's just that every time you calculate it, you have to pay a real price: your life span becomes shorter and incomplete, and your humanity becomes more and more weak. He is neither a genius nor a madman. He is just more tolerant than others, better at calculating, and knows better when to bow his head and when to collect debts. From a mining slave candidate to a sect cultivator, from the outer sect's blood contract to being qualified for service, the protagonist wants to find out the whereabouts of his sister, settle old debts with his parents, and grab a position that no one can take away in this immortal cultivation order that uses corpses to defend rights. It was only when he actually climbed up that he discovered that the account he desperately wanted to open, and the entire Xuan Dial Realm, had long been in someone else's account.
