I'm Illiterate, So How Am I Supposed to Read This Cultivation Manual?

Lu Ye transmigrates to the cultivation world with peerless talent and heaven-defying comprehension.

There's just one problem: he's illiterate.

He can't recognize a single ancient seal script, but at least the cultivation manuals have pictures.

At the Alchemy Peak school, two strange flames have the words "Never let these two merge" written beside them. Lu Ye sees the diagram of an explosion and his eyes light up.

"Isn't this the Buddha's Wrath Fire Lotus?"

Boom! Half the alchemy room is gone.

His body-tempering manual marks seven vital points that must never be struck. He goes right ahead and breaks them open one by one, punching each point until he forces himself to master the Seven Wounds Fist, a deadly technique that sends black qi billowing from his whole body.

The elder cries out in fury: "Demonic arts!"

Lu Ye slaps the sect's textbook onto the table. "You gave it to me yourselves!"

Later, he turns the Evil-Subduing Finger into the Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger, the Cloud-Walking Step into the Secret of the Line, and the Golden Body Art into the Immovable Wisdom King...

Then the ruins of the ancient Heavenly Court appear, ushering in a new era for the entire cultivation world.
