   I've been reading Tomato Novels for years, and many of them are repetitive formulaic stories—all about underdogs rising to power, family oppression, and the like. They can't compare to those by established authors at all. The core problem is that they lack logical consistency and feel deliberately contrived. Recently, I read a book (I Was Forced to Embark on the Path of Cultivation After Inheriting My Family Business), which was relatively more plausible. While there were conflicts between fellow disciples in different sects, they were mainly directed at other sects. How can a sect develop if it's constantly fighting internally? What if outsiders invade? But this book starts with a mortal from a declining family being sent to cultivate immortality by his father. The protagonist isn't a loser, and there's no family oppression; he cultivates solely based on his own talent. There's no stealing cultivation resources from fellow disciples; he cultivates by killing spirit beasts or raiding other sects! Later, I realized that the protagonist's family was originally a cultivation family, just in decline, and the protagonist was the cultivation genius of his generation—he wasn't a loser from the start. However, his family had long been targeted by cultivators from all walks of life, and the protagonist could only strive to save his family. But the sect he joined was also facing destruction soon!

   I'm shamelessly recommending this as a traditional cultivation novel. There's no reincarnation, no time travel, and no cheat codes.

While others cultivate immortality through fighting, he cultivates immortality through farming, growing spiritual herbs, medicines, and fruits until his hands are sore—he's practically an "agricultural scientist" in the cultivation world!👨‍🌾! Highlight 2: The System's Hilarious Operations Lead to Power⚡ Accidentally bound to a "Spiritual Herb Planting System," failing to complete tasks will deduct from his lifespan?
