As the junior disciple and sect leader of the Palace of Ten Thousand Arts, Huichun often finds himself baffled. He always feels like the world is doomed.
Take his own Palace of Ten Thousand Arts, for example.
It's one of the biggest sects in the cultivation world, with a sect leader in the Tribulation Transcendence stage, several elders in the Deity Transformation and Nascent Soul stages, and dozens of Golden Core disciples. So why on earth would they make him, the junior disciple, the sect leader? That's just ridiculous, right?
Then there's his senior sister, who cultivates the Heartless Dao but is obsessed with descending to the mortal world to undergo trials and pick up men. She feels right at home in a world of hatred and passion.
Seriously! How can anyone cultivate the Heartless Dao with a mind full of romance?!
His second senior brother is a sword cultivator, but instead of figuring out how to make his sword faster, deadlier, and invincible, he wakes up every day thinking of new ways to make money.
He's practically dripping with the stench of money! Is that any way for a cool, handsome sword cultivator to act?
Then there is his second senior sister, a beast tamer who seems to have been seduced and recruited by the demon race, and his junior sister, who is obsessed with alchemy but keeps blowing up her furnace and has to pretend she's a weapon cultivator whenever she leaves the sect.
To outsiders, every one of them is an elite among the cultivation world's younger generation, with a bright and promising future.
Huichun, the only one who sees the truth, can only sigh: I'm exhausted! World, just end already!
Everyone else: Huh? So this is what the shining beacon of righteousness is really like?
That's right. Huichun is a celebrity in the cultivation world, with all kinds of titles to his name: the sect leader's son, that person's younger brother, a genius spell cultivator, the all-purpose junior disciple, the shining beacon of righteousness, and the hope of the cultivation world.
Huichun really is a cultivation genius. For him, increasing his cultivation is as effortless and natural as eating or drinking. Plenty of people ask him for cultivation advice, but Huichun can't explain how he does it either, so he can only put on a show and say, "All it takes is a sincere heart."
Many, many years later, the world still hasn't ended. Huichun cultivates the Great Dao, ascends to the upper realm, and receives the title of: True Lord of Diligent Oxen and Horses.
Only then does everyone understand: So he was cultivating the Ox-and-Horse Dao!
Theme: The world isn't as wonderful as it seems, but it isn't that bad either.
