Chu Yunge is the seventeen-year-old daughter of a blacksmith in Qingshi Town, southern Xinjiang, and a bottom-rung wage earner in the cultivation world.
Her life philosophy is simple: don't take a deal that loses money, don't shirk work that needs doing, and smash the heads of anyone who bullies her.
She thought she'd spend her life swinging a hammer, forging tools, and saving enough money to support her father in his old age. Then a spiritual root test shattered the testing stone twice. A cultivator from an immortal sect told her, "You don't have a false spiritual root. You have a Chaos Dao Body, something seen only once in ten thousand years."
A Chaos Dao Body? Sounds powerful, right? In reality, it can absorb any kind of spiritual energy, but never has enough of it. Cultivation? Not happening. So she finds another path: she uses chaotic spiritual power to farm, harvesting eighteen thousand jin per acre and stunning the Alchemy Hall; she uses it to forge, turning scrap metal into divine weapons and stunning the Refining Pavilion; she uses it to build infrastructure, constructing an entire city in three months and astonishing the whole cultivation world.
Then she uncovers the ultimate secret of this world: the Heavenly Dao is actually an AI infected with a virus. All the predecessors who ascended over the past ten thousand years were harvested as fuel.
Chu Yunge: "??? What kind of heartless corporation is this? Ascension means getting laid off?"
So she decides to rebel. Not against the emperor, not against the Immortal Court, but directly against the Heavenly Dao.
