Slow-burn cultivation, lie-flat fun, a beloved darling, an ensemble cast, adorable contrasts, a money-making crew, and trope subversion. The heroine is six by bone age, so romance is a challenge.
After eight years of grinding away at a huge corporation, she was promoted to vice president of human resources on the day it went public. Half a bottle of liquor at the celebration banquet later, she was dead.
She opened her eyes in a parallel world in the year 300,000 AD, an era where technology and cultivation existed side by side.
What a ride: her body's bone age, soul age, and physical age were all completely different.
Fortunately, the family who doted on her original body gave this wandering soul from another world some much-needed warmth.
At first, she thought her cultivation aptitude was mediocre. Apart from growing slowly, she had no talents at all.
Then, by chance, she obtained the ancient divine artifact left by her ancestor, the Seven-Star Sword Coffer, and met the carefree incarnation of that same ancestor.
After the ancestor taught her techniques and poured cultivation into her, she was propelled straight to the pinnacle of the age: the Tribulation Transcendence stage.
With an unfathomable divine artifact in hand and cultivation at its peak, there was absolutely no way she was going to keep grinding!
Drawing on her years of experience managing HR, she took over a patch of land measuring six square thousand li, wedged between three clans, and built Boundary Gap Village.
She reclaimed and cleansed the land, opened a farmstay, and launched cross-species trade between humans, demons, and monsters.
Together with her big brother, sister-in-law, and a whole crew of friends, she built a business. All she wanted was to lie flat, slack off, and enjoy a peaceful life.
[Slow burn and trope subversion, no melodramatic household battles, focused on building a business and a community, with romance as a secondary element]
The blurb really doesn't do it justice. Please give the story itself a try.
