   All three are my novels. All three feature a spiritual spring space and are full of positive energy. The first one meets your requirements later on, starting with digging up ginseng. It involves farming, cultivating immortality, and building a career. The second one has consistently ranked in the top ten of the medical novel rankings, currently at number seven. The third one is a male-oriented novel. The male protagonist is all-powerful, proficient in medicine, Yin-Yang Five Elements, martial arts, formations, and Yin-Yang eyes. A modern female CEO transmigrates with a spiritual spring space. Using the space and her intelligence, she continuously helps her family, friends, and the common people, changing her tragic fate and living a happy life by growing high-yield crops, raising animals, and making handicrafts. As her merit points increase, the space continuously upgrades, and the female protagonist becomes increasingly powerful. Special abilities emerge one after another: medicine, poison, cooking, martial arts, talismans, formations, third eye, divine hearing... With divine beasts as mounts and divine swords as weapons, the male and female protagonists have powerful backgrounds, are both pure and strong, and forge a unique path of cultivation.
