   I stumbled upon this book while I was looking for something to read. It opens with a classic debt collection scene, the protagonist is in a difficult situation, and also has to protect his sister.

    Tired of the overpowered protagonist trope of urban cultivation novels? "I'm Going to Cultivate Immortality" turns cultivation into a survival battle for the working class! After the revival of spiritual energy, the protagonist has to check for power outage notices before undergoing tribulation, order herbs through food delivery apps to refine medicine, and even sign a "co-tenancy agreement" with the landlord for spiritual veins! There's no overwhelming show-off, only the anti-cliché of "cultivating immortality is more tiring than working"—the lightning tribulation gets him complained about for noise by the property management, flying on a sword gets him a "low-altitude violation" ticket from the traffic police, and he has to calculate the electricity bill while cultivating immortality… It welds the extraordinary life of cultivation and the plight of modern working life into a comedy, subverting the stereotypes of "urban cultivation" in every chapter, a cure for overpowered protagonist PTSD. After reading it, your hope for urban cultivation will be rekindled.

    Yes, urban cultivation novels are indeed very appealing.
