   Reader note

   Tomato: My new book, *Zero Darkness*, needs your support! The world-building is clearly layered: the power system (Zero, Spirit, Inner, True), the timeline (Zero Era, Dark Abyss Era, End Times), and the spatial structure (the sealed realms, the realm ruled by gods and Buddhas) are clearly interwoven, providing a solid foundation for the story. The concept design is novel: the setting of "Zero Power" as the primordial power, the protagonist Jun Yuhan's "System Storage Ring" which creates new products—the main three Zhenxi (Lingxi) dual souls and dual bodies—and the combat style controlled by professions such as "Prophet" and "Curse Master" are all refreshing. The core conflict is deepened: the gods and Buddhas use "dirty means" to control the Heavenly Dao and the Immortal Sects, rising above the Seven or Eight Realms and embarking on a path of god-slaying. The power system is refined: based on "Zero, Spirit, Inner, True," more unique cultivation paths, famous moves, and representative figures can be conceived for each system, making the combat and growth paths more diverse and colorful.

    Reader note

    I've been rereading this cultivation-farming novel recently, and the protagonist's rise to power is completely grounded in realistic survival. Falling from a high position and exiled to a desolate frontier, he initially struggles to even feed himself, let alone shelter refugees. He abandons the traditional path of apprenticeship and chooses to settle down on the land, cultivating spirit rice to support his sword-wielding power. He prioritizes feeding the entire city before focusing on cultivation and becoming stronger. The book weaves together three main themes: food, water, and people's hearts, gradually building a sword-wielding force in the barren frontier. The narrative is steady and grounded.
