Cyber-home-life enthusiast Ye Yuan transmigrates into a cultivation game he just bought and inherits a polluted wasteland.
--Good thing he bought the latest [Paradise Beyond the World] expansion pack as a bundle.
● "Take over a desolate ruin, discover its scenic wonders, and work hard to turn it into the most popular paradise for cultivators!"
[Name your abode]: Reward: [Pathfinding Compass] x1
[Explore the surrounding area]: Unlock [Broken Boundary-Stele] x1
[Gather building materials]: Reward: [Evil-Warding Banner] x1
Cultivate spirit fields, develop animal husbandry, cook delicious food, set up a furnace to make elixirs, forge weapons, and customize your home... Looking at the long list of locked achievement icons in the game manual, Ye Yuan goes all in!

The sky bleeds, the earth festers, and demons fill the land. The sun and moon are dimmed, people slaughter one another, and the Great Way falls into ruin.
The Cangming Realm, once steeped in dark and brutal misery, undergoes a dramatic change with the arrival of a wondrous abode:
>> Paradise Sights >> Markets of the Universe
[Group deal] Shared alchemy room. Book as a group of three, and one person gets in free (subject to verification of your Ant Credit Pay score).
>> Paradise Sights >> The Road to Ascension
[Guide] Soloing the drought demon in the Thousand-Mile Barren Lands secret realm: key tips (mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators can copy this build).
>> Paradise Sights >> Attracting Investment
[Success Story] Luanle Palace: Make use of idle disciples, launch a coordinated development strategy, and grow the duck industry into a major business (Top comment: Is your duck business really legitimate?).
Ye Yuan: Fellow cultivators, the road to immortality is long. Is slaughtering for treasure and turning on fellow cultivators really the only way?
The cultivators and major sects: "People's hearts have really changed... Who's disrupting the market? Who's ruining the ancient methods of cultivation? Where is this abode? What are the coordinates? And where's the teleportation array?"

[Reader's Note]
1. This is a self-indulgent story featuring infrastructure-building, management, farming, and game development, among other things. It lacks depth and substance.
2. The premise is that everyone in the cultivation world wakes up to find its entertainment, cuisine, and population quality reduced by a factor of ten thousand. Includes many made-up settings of my own.
3. Polished by hand on an old-fashioned keyboard. I update about 15,000 words a week, and may write more when I have time.
4. Please forgive any other shortcomings.
Theme: Put down roots and prosper through hard work.
