Yu Qingyi

(From last year to this one, I've gone through a job change, blind dates, failed blind dates, nearly getting married just for the sake of it before coming to my senses, almost giving up on life before finding my confidence again, and now getting a new job and getting my life back on track, among many other things. I want to pick this book back up and fulfill my own dream of cultivating immortality. Things will definitely get better in 2026. Written on 2025.12.29)

Blurb:

Wang Yu transmigrates into a cultivation game, but onto a dead server.

The game interface is still there, and once she has enough experience to advance, it takes no effort at all. But as a lone-wolf player, she has no connections or resources in her sect, and she's so broke she can barely pay the rent on her cave dwelling. With no other choice, she takes on an assignment, heading down the mountain to gather resources while also developing a side hustle.

Unfortunately, things don't go as she hopes. The cultivation world runs on survival of the fittest. PVE offers no enjoyment at all: if you aren't at the top, you'll only be trampled underfoot.

In short: female-lead progression fantasy + survivalist farming story + breezy cultivation tale with a built-in game System cheat

Cultivation stages in the Xuanhuang Realm: Qi Refining - Foundation Establishment - Core Formation - Nascent Soul - Deity Transformation

PS: An ultra-long story focused on the main plot. The ending has no CP, but that doesn't mean there are no romantic storylines. The path to immortality is long, and the seven emotions and six desires are inevitable. There will be more than one romance, both one-sided and mutual. [No stock-picking romance!]

Theme: The road to immortality is long.
