He attends school during the day and cultivates immortality at night, gradually growing stronger. He can draw talismans in the void and communicate with ghosts and gods. It's not melodramatic or idiotic. He keeps his cultivation level low-key and hides his true strength. He's initially cautious yet ambitious, but decisive in his actions. There's no female lead; the protagonist is a straight man focused solely on his studies.

    Reader note

    I recommend these books: The first is about beast taming, where upper-class families impose information blockades on lower-class commoners, preventing talented individuals from rising to power unless they join a major force. The second is about cultivation based on elemental weaknesses; each major advancement in cultivation involves a tribulation. The third is a realistic portrayal of the cultivation world, where the upper class's control over the lower class is even stricter than the first, and each breakthrough requires specific secret techniques and special resources. The fourth is about unpredictable actions; when they do act, they utterly destroy everything in their path.
