“Senior Sister, do I really have to pierce all the vital points in my body to draw qi into it?”
“That’s right. It’ll help you open every meridian in an instant and reach the Great Perfection of Qi Refining.”
“What if I pierce the wrong spot?”
“Cultivating immortality is about defying fate. I’ve got a coffin to sell you.”
“Senior Sister, do I really have to split my core open myself to form a Nascent Soul?”
“Trust me, that’s how you cultivate.”
“What if I fail to split my core and can’t form a Nascent Soul?”
“Life and death are everyday matters in immortal cultivation. I’ve got a grave in a fine location to sell you.”
Guan Shanyue looks at her junior brothers and realizes that her funeral business is flourishing.
The entire sect, beaten into submission by Guan Shanyue, has just one thought.
Senior Sister, stay away from us!
In the Age of Declining Dharma, spiritual energy is scarce. Countless talented people make sweeping reforms to cultivation methods so that spiritual energy can be used as efficiently as possible. Guan Shanyue, the only corpse collector of the Age of Declining Dharma, returns ten thousand years into the past, carrying with her the hope of the apocalypse.
If she can find and eliminate the culprit behind the Spirit-Annihilation War, she can change the future.
The problem is, she arrived too early.
The Spirit-Annihilation War is still a full three thousand years away.
When she reaches the sect and sees their outdated, old-fashioned methods of cultivation, Guan Shanyue immediately understands why these cultivators can’t fight. How can they possibly succeed when they treat cultivating immortality like a game?
The principle of cultivating immortality is simple: succeed, or die!
The demonic lord Wan Jiuchou emerges from seclusion and discovers that a little girl has stolen his title as the great villain.
As it happens, he comes across Guan Shanyue just as her disciples and junior brothers confess their love for her together.
“Senior Sister, I love you.”
“Master, I want to become your cultivation partner.”
“…Instead of cultivating properly, you’re wasting time on this nonsense. You might as well die.” With that, Guan Shanyue seals her junior brother and disciple inside coffins, buries them deep underground, and imprisons them for a hundred years.
Seeing a young girl so vicious in the way she deals with people who are in love with her, Wan Jiuchou figures he must be a great philanthropist by comparison.
