Jiang Yunyi is the thirty-eighth sword cultivator in the history of Tianyan Sect to be on the verge of ascending. She’s just about ready to join her master and grandmaster in the celestial realm, but the cultivation world is so short on resources that her foundation at the Tribulation Crossing stage is unstable. A bolt of heavenly lightning turns her away at the gate and wipes out half her cultivation.
Jiang Yunyi: This is so frustrating!
The lightning strikes her into an entirely new world. The spiritual energy here is so dense it’s almost choking, and spiritual plants and ley lines are everywhere among the mountains. There isn’t a single demon beast or magical beast. It’s practically heaven for cultivators! But one thing puzzles Jiang Yunyi: why are there no cultivators in this world? And why is everyone’s life expectancy under a hundred?
Jiang Yunyi clenches her fists, heartbroken to see all these resources going to waste. She decides to establish a cultivation sect in this world and diligently practice cultivation, hoping to ascend as soon as possible!
To establish a sect, start by taking in disciples.
They say that on the summit of the Forbidden City, two peerless swordsmen once agreed to fight to the death, drawing a crowd so vast the streets emptied. Jiang Yunyi flies overhead on her sword and takes one look. Gasp, two Heavenly Spirit Roots! What wonderful seedlings for sword cultivators!
She immediately dives down on her life-bound sword and lands between them. "Stop fighting. What’s the point of two rookies squabbling? Come cultivate with me!
...A few notes before you dive in...
* The heroine’s character design is on the cover. She’s a chuuni cultivation powerhouse who loves showing off in front of others.
* A goofy story with maximum character torment. Everyone gets tormented, including the heroine.
* The author has read the original work this story is based on several times and will do their best to keep the characters true to the source within their writing abilities. (There may be some out-of-character moments for the sake of the plot. Apologies in advance.)
* Romance makes up 40 percent of the story. The heroine has one-way crushes on everyone, and everyone has a one-way crush on her. But because she’s so aggressively straight, the arrows don’t meet. This is not a harem story.
* The final pairing will be chosen from among the swordsmen. (It’s possible she’ll date them all first.)
