Immortal of the Chaos Dao

My name is Lu Chen. I have a mixed Five-Element spiritual root, and everyone agrees I’m hopeless at cultivation.

At Yaoguang Peak of the Xuantian Sect, I’m the most insignificant person around: dead last in cultivation, terrible in talent, with a master famous for being an expert at screwing over his disciples and a seemingly well-behaved junior sister who’s actually more full of schemes than anyone else.

All I want is to cultivate in peace, preferably without anyone noticing me.

So what happens?

I go to pick up some materials and stumble upon an insider selling stolen talismans. I deliver some supplies and get caught up in a string of disappearances.

In this cultivation world full of geniuses, where everyone keeps going on about how “thirty years east of the river, thirty years west,” I believe in one ironclad rule: the person who lives the longest may not be the strongest, but they’re definitely the fastest runner.

A mixed Five-Element spiritual root, a bizarre sect, a mysterious disappearance case, a holy maiden from a sacred land, a young master of a demon sect, a prince of an imperial dynasty... When all the trouble comes knocking, I just want to ask:

Can I please just cultivate in peace?
