Modern-Era Cultivation in the Age of Declining Spiritual Energy
-
Fang Xinyao thinks that the word "unlucky" ought to be added in front of "poor" when describing her!
After all, not everyone runs into two handsome men fighting in midair on their way home from a night shift, only for one of them to nearly strangle her to death.
And that’s not even mentioning the sentient, highly coveted spirit seed that, in a desperate moment, went straight for her heart and ended up inhabiting her body. Of course, that nearly killed her too.
Worst of all, the Spirit Bodhi Seed transformed her into a special "plant-human". From then on, she became a walking piece of "Tang Monk meat" in the eyes of all kinds of nonhuman beings...
Being forced to become a plant-human brought Fang Xinyao a whole lot of trouble, and let her witness countless stories from beyond the human world.
Not only did she have to work hard to improve her cultivation so she wouldn’t get sent to the Western Paradise too soon as a piece of "Tang Monk meat", she also had to ask herself three times a day: Make money, make money, and make more money!
Even after embarking on the path of cultivation, Fang Xinyao still had to rack her brains to make money, because her constitution was just too expensive to maintain!! And on top of that...
Black Cat A Ling: Scoop-scooper, buy me two more premium sleeping mats, meow! The kind made with top-grade Spirit-Gathering Grass, meow!
Black Crow A Ke: Caw, Xinyao, Xinyao, I want to eat Scarlet Essence Berries! Xinyao, Xinyao, my underlings want some too, caw!
Beautiful Master: Good apprentice, look at all these hard-to-find spirit herbs for advancing your cultivation that I brought you. But... the tablet you bought me earlier has a crack in it...
Some fluffy half-demon: Why the long face? Ahem, since you’re so upset, I suppose I could lend you my chest to bury your face in...
Fang Xinyao: ...I’m burying my face! (Dives at them)

The author’s headcanon is piled high. There’s a beautiful master and all kinds of fluffy creatures.
What is a plant-human? Half human, half plant. Think cordyceps.
So this novel could also be called The Cordyceps Cultivation Chronicles (Just kidding!). This is the author’s headcanon, and the author has the final say.
One-on-one romance, happy ending.
Theme: Cultivators should strive for prosperity too.
