The iron law of the Lingxu Realm, universally upheld for countless ages: painstaking cultivation is the righteous path, and only diligence can prove one's immortality.
Countless cultivators sit in meditation day and night, burn through their lifespans, and compete fiercely for spiritual energy, convinced that the more they suffer, the stronger they become, and the harder they strive, the higher they will climb.
That is, until Qin Feng arrives in this world, breaking the shackles of countless generations!
A low-ranking outer disciple of the Qingyi Sect on Mount Qizi, he was born with reversed meridians, making him utterly unsuited to the orthodox path of arduous cultivation.
While others advance a thousand miles through painstaking practice, forcing himself to cultivate makes his qi and blood run backward and his meridians burn with pain. If he keeps at it, he'll die.
Half a month after joining the sect, his cultivation has made no progress, and he is about to be expelled.
At his lowest point, Qin Feng clears his mind and reaches an epiphany: arduous cultivation may be the accepted path for everyone else, but it isn't right for me.
He gives up the rat race and grueling training for good. By quieting his mind, letting go, and following the Dao, he unexpectedly awakens an innate Dao physique of returning to the void!
The muddled, ordinary spiritual energy everyone else scrambles for retreats before him, while the scarce source energy of the Dao pours into him as he wishes.
He needn't cultivate arduously or compete for spiritual energy. He only has to sit quietly and empty his mind to cleanse his marrow and meridians, break through without a sound, and see his cultivation soar.
The disturbance in the spiritual energy alarms the entire sect. They brand him a calamity who has thrown cultivation into chaos, and everyone demands he answer for it.
But the Heavenly Dao is utterly impartial: anyone who harbors murderous intent toward Qin Feng for calmly following the Dao, or uses their strength to harm him, will be struck by heavenly lightning and suffer its backlash!
The outer sect's top prodigy, who has cultivated arduously for twenty years, draws his sword to put Qin Feng on trial, only to be gravely wounded by purple lightning on the spot. Everyone is horrified!
For three hundred years, the world has been trapped in a man-made, distorted rat race. The harder people work, the more they wear themselves down; the more they cultivate, the more their progress stalls.
Only Qin Feng follows the Dao with ease and quietly comprehends his true nature, earning the Heavenly Dao's favor and the protection of the mountains and rivers.
He travels through the five sacred lands of Mount Qizi, Qingmang City, the Canglan River, the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall, and Kunlun Ruins,
using the most effortless way of following the Dao to break three hundred years of twisted conventions, restore the proper balance of heaven and earth, and save the entire Lingxu Realm!
The writing is good, the narration is delicate, and the sense of substitution is strong. Being in a daze from time to time can improve your cultivation. The golden finger is relatively novel and fun. Come on, author⛽⛽⛽
