(No romance, a touch of ensemble cast, cultivation progression, rising against the odds)
I’m not very good at writing introductions, so just give the story a try!
Zheng Muzhi was an immortal who guarded the boundary wall of the Upper Realm. Betrayed by the Upper Realm’s prodigies, her remnant soul was reborn in the mortal world as a young girl. She started her cultivation journey anew, determined to ascend to the Upper Realm and take revenge.
But along the way, she ran into…
A sword cultivator with an insatiable thirst for knowledge, a female cultivator who was always talking to an iron ball in midair, spirit beasts throwing themselves at her…
Eventually, a whole host of prodigies started avoiding her, because…
Zheng Muzhi: “All I did was make them wear women’s clothes and act as bait.”
A bystander muttered, “As if you can say that with a straight face. The immortal’s tricks are unpredictable. During a public duel, she deliberately used the hilt of her sword to smack her opponent on the butt.”
Everyone who knew her said, “Just don’t provoke that fearsome immortal. Otherwise, you won’t even know how humiliatingly you lost!”
(Note: The heroine does get hurt. This isn’t a mindless power fantasy, so feel free to read.)
