Cultivating Immortality, Starting with Mastering the Scarlet Flame Art

A world of immortals, a paradise for demons. Danger lurks at every turn, and death dances in the shadows. In the cultivation world, other people consider incomplete, peerless spells and cultivation techniques too valuable to use and too useless to keep. To Ye Xuan, they’re priceless treasures. That’s because his Proficiency Panel can take any spell from beginner level to mastery, as long as he puts in the work. With his Proficiency Panel, Ye Xuan only wants to quietly grind his way toward a better future. But cultivators absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for their own use, something the Heavenly Dao cannot tolerate. Those who defy heaven eventually find themselves trapped in its grasp. His cultivation rises one level at a time, and troubles come one after another. Is he the one breaking out of the game, a piece trapped inside it, or both? The past is gone, and the future has yet to arrive. All Ye Xuan can hold on to is the present. He stays true to himself, watches quietly, and moves with care, hoping to one day reach the highest heights and look down upon all living beings.
