Burning My Lifespan to Gain Cultivation, but I Can Steal Years from Others!

Wang Yan transmigrates to the cultivation world with mutated dual lightning-and-fire spiritual roots.

That's practically a half-genius setup!

But the golden finger given to him by the System doesn't seem to have any special abilities.

He only discovers that he can apparently consume his own lifespan and convert it into cultivation.

But he tries not to use it. Cultivation is supposed to lead to longevity, so he doesn't want to shorten his life even further. He wants to live a few more years and fight for a place on the immortal path.

Then, just after becoming an outer disciple of the Tianxuan Sect, he gets an unexpected chance to discover that a cultivator at the same level whom he had just touched has grown white hair overnight!

He absorbs their lifespan, converts it into cultivation, and breaks through that very night!

Cultivators value talent and lifespan above all else. This trick is impossible to guard against.

It seems like... a demonic cultivation technique!
