My Immortal Dao Simulator

As the Crown Prince of the Great Qi Dynasty, Chu Chengguang was switched at birth during a palace coup. Fortunately, a remarkable stranger came to his rescue and brought him back to the Jiuxuan Sect to be raised. He joined the Saber Sect and became the final disciple of the world's greatest saber master.

Unfortunately, Chu Chengguang had only mediocre talent in martial arts. Despite having a renowned master, his progress was painfully slow. Thankfully, his senior brothers and sisters looked after him, so he avoided being ostracized by disciples of other factions and eventually rose to the position of elder through seniority and connections.

Years later, as the martial world teetered on the brink of collapse and demons and monsters ran amok, every Jiuxuan Sect disciple who had gone out to save people was forced back to the sect by foreign martial grandmasters allied with demons and monsters, who surrounded the gates and taunted them. Then Elder Chu Chengguang, who seemed utterly ordinary to everyone, pushed open the door and casually struck out with a palm.

Only then did everyone learn that the reason the final disciple of the world's greatest saber master had mediocre martial talent was that he wasn't cultivating martial arts at all, but the Great Dao that reached the heavens!

And his true identity was none other than the mysterious Sword Venerable who had secretly protected the Jiuxuan Sect for thousands of years, an immortal who could cleave open the heavens with a sword and calm the seas with a palm!

When Chu Chengguang discovered that he had transmigrated into a high-martial world overrun by demons, where martial artists could use their inner energy to pilot giant robots, he decided to keep a low profile and live out his days under the sect's protection.

But when he was three, he awakened a cultivation simulator, his golden finger, and his life became a cheat code.

[At age three, you carefully nurture an unranked mortal flower until it passes a bottleneck and advances to the ninth-rank Fire-Avoiding Grass. You earn 10 gratitude points and receive the ninth-rank inner cultivation art, Everlasting Spring Art.]

[At age four, you push a boulder off a mountain, crushing a passing bandit who was out to kill. You save three lives, earn 60 gratitude points and 10 righteousness points, and receive the eighth-rank sword art, Soaring Heavens Sword Intent.]

[At age five, you rescue an untransformed mountain spirit from a vicious tiger and bandage its wounds. You earn 100 gratitude points and receive the seventh-rank spell, Rejuvenation Art.]

From crown prince of a dynasty, to mediocrity in martial arts, to an immortal of the mortal world;

From an unknown nobody, to someone who makes friends everywhere, to a name known across the world!

With everyone on my side, I am invincible!
