Born into humble circumstances, she is the daughter of a butcher who makes a living slaughtering pigs in a ruined temple outside town. In the cultivation world, spiritual roots are everything, and ordinary people aren't even qualified to begin cultivating. Her father is gravely ill and needs spirit herbs to survive, but she has neither money nor powerful connections.
One night, she chops off a black pig's head. As the blood splashes, the life essence she has accumulated from a thousand slaughters erupts! Her dantian opens, her meridians clear. It turns out that even slaughtering livestock can lead to immortality!
No spiritual roots? She tempers her body with ordinary fire and carves open a path to immortality with her boning knife!
A failed batch of pills? She uses the spirits of the dead to summon lightning, then turns around and refines top-grade divine pills!
The immortal sects oppress her? She cuts down a Golden Core cultivator with one strike and exposes a genius's conspiracy!
From menial worker to founder of the Pill Dao, she rewrites the rules all by herself: even mortals without spiritual roots can reach the heavens after slaughtering a thousand beasts!
