Tomb Raiding: From the Start, Wu Xie Stepped on My Foot

I was a peerless prodigy of the Taoist sect, a once-in-a-thousand-years talent. At a young age, I’d already reached the Golden Core stage, only to be betrayed by my own master. He kicked me straight into the world of tomb raiding! The moment I arrived, my eyes lit up. The yin energy here was dense, and the spiritual energy was unbelievably abundant. It was practically a cultivation paradise made just for me! I immediately sat down and began cultivating. After training until I was exhausted in body and mind, I simply stretched out on the ground and fell asleep. All I wanted was to cultivate in peace and break through to the next realm as soon as possible. Who could have guessed that, while I slept, a huge foot would suddenly come down hard on my hand? The piercing pain jolted me awake. When I looked up, several people stood before me. They were none other than Wu Xie and his companions, fresh out on their adventures. You stepped on my hand? You’re not getting away that easily! I immediately flopped down and started making a scene, insisting on sticking with them no matter what. From that moment on, I latched onto Wu Xie. Other people enter ancient tombs with their hearts in their throats, avoiding traps, fleeing monsters, and dreading curses, all just to make it out alive. But I stroll through ancient tombs at my leisure. I don’t see dangerous zombies or deadly yin creatures. All I see is an endless supply of merit, there for the taking! Resentment and malevolent energy? I dispel them with a wave of my hand and turn them into cultivation. Spirits in ancient tombs? I chant scriptures to guide them to the afterlife and gather merit. Deadly traps? I can easily unravel them with a glance and a little Taoist magic. Wu Xie was full of questions, never able to figure out who I really was. Zhang Qiling had witnessed every kind of strange phenomenon in the world, yet even he couldn’t see through my Taoist cultivation. All I wanted was to tag along with the two of them and take it easy, peacefully guide the yin creatures to the afterlife, build up enough merit, and focus on my cultivation until I eventually ascended to immortality.
