The Entire Cultivation World Wants Me as a Cauldron, but I Ascended

[Leveling and growth] [Top-grade water spirit root] [Light ensemble cast]

Shen Xi has a top-grade water spirit root, making her the perfect cauldron in the eyes of her family.

Her stepsister tramples on her, her family sells her, and cultivators line up to inspect her.

At first, Shen Xi neither fights nor competes. She only wants to survive as an unnoticed nobody.

But backing down won't keep her alive.

Her grandfather sacrifices his eyes to find her an ancient cultivation technique, one deliberately lost to the cultivation world.

From then on, outsiders see her as a useless cultivator with five spirit roots.

Later, the great families mistake her for someone with a chaos spirit root and compete to shower her with attention.

No one knows that she has always cultivated the water spirit root, the one the entire cultivation world looks down on most!

After joining a sect and taking a master, she discovers that water spirit roots have been slandered, water-based techniques have been lost, and every water-root cultivator is kept as a breeding cauldron.

The more they fear it, the more determined she is to cultivate.

Cultivation is about defying heaven and changing your fate. Since she's already going against heaven, what does she have to fear?

A word of caution: From the start, the female lead has a relatively low cultivation level, and her story focuses on growth. Given her circumstances, she will be quite passive early on. Her character development follows a logical progression, so please be patient. She becomes very strong later. If that bothers you, read at your own risk.
