The six viscera and five organs: the body itself holds the great medicine of immortality. Why seek it outside?
Confucian teachings of the mind, Mohist universal love, the Two Truths of Buddhism, Taoist breathing and guiding exercises: every school values life and nurtures the human body. The principles beyond the physical have wondrous uses of their own; they are no mere delusions.
This is the story of a cultivator.
Who can attain immortality? Who can claim sole dominion over the Great Dao?
Ten thousand years ago, Patriarch Chunyang said that cultivating both life and nature could lead to the Great Dao.
Ten thousand years later, the Martial Ancestor said that life and nature flowing as one could lead to the Great Dao.
For millions of years, countless Heavenly Venerables, God-Emperors, sages, and Celestial Masters have believed their own methods could attain the Dao. Yet every one of their lineages has vanished with the passage of time.
Who can endure for ten thousand generations without perishing?
Who can suppress every enemy beneath heaven?
Across this vast land of Yanxia, through a thousand years of glory, in the nineteen provinces of the realm, I alone roam unchecked. I ask: where in this world lies the true path to eternal life and immortality?!
Shen Yunhua had barely transmigrated when he discovered that he was caught in a vast conspiracy and that someone had stolen his identity. But that was all right. From then on, he would live freely, settle old scores, and ride across the jianghu. He would unite the martial arts of the ten directions, use the Eight Trigrams and arcane arts to unravel the human heart, draw on the Three Changes to discuss Laozi and Zhuangzi and the origin of all things, and plant the seed of the mind through Zen to prove the Two Truths.
What is rightfully mine will be mine in the end. People like us rely neither on heaven nor earth, but only on ourselves. With a heart as firm as a sword, I’ll cut down heavenly tribulations. Across ten thousand generations, all things may perish, but my Daoist heart will endure!

If Chapter 12 isn't changed, it'll be a complete turn-off. Is this some kind of forced protagonist halo? The protagonist is just an infant, not even at the first realm yet. Even if someone uses one hand to shield him from injury, can't a full-force attack from a second realm expert kill him?
Let me explain why the author wrote this book.
In fact, much of the content in this book is based on the author's own practice and experimentation (referring to sexual cultivation, not qigong or life cultivation). Many of the things the author mentions in the text are actually his life experiences and things that are indeed useful. The author has experienced many ups and downs in his life, with highs and lows.
This book is quite good; it's a breath of fresh air in the Xianxia genre, since the author genuinely wanted to write about cultivation rather than leveling up by fighting monsters in a game world. Sigh, but the author inserted another system, which made me feel so frustrated, like a bad pill in a pot of good soup.
You've written dozens of chapters, and the main character isn't even three years old yet. While there aren't any major flaws in your writing, the slow pace and the excessive amount of irrelevant plot have become problematic.
I don't understand. The author portrays the protagonist's master as having a very high level of cultivation, but the protagonist is only one year old, or maybe just over one year old. Wandering around everywhere??? And you're asking if he's going to go see anything??? Has he forgotten his age??? What can he possibly do at this age?!
Shennong is here
Warning: This story involves an old Taoist priest being framed and killed by a branch of a powerful family, resulting in countless deaths and injuries among the common people. Then, the protagonist's master, a friend of the old priest, actually takes the murderer as his apprentice?! What?!
Will the protagonist reconcile with the villain later on?
You're suppressing the protagonist right from the very first chapter; it's painful to read. Who writes a good story like this these days? People don't have time to wait hundreds of chapters before you slap them in the face. Society is so toxic these days; people want immediate revenge, especially when reading novels.
It's alright.
However, I feel like the main plot isn't being grasped. I wanted to see a simulation, but you kept talking about the surrounding situation, and the protagonist didn't seem to be making any progress. I didn't understand the strength of his cultivation technique; all I knew was how much demonic life force he used. But after reading 30 chapters, I still don't know how powerful it is or how it compares to others. It's too bland and somewhat pointless.
I couldn't get through the first chapter. I know it's supposed to be a case of starting with a slump and then building to a climax, but this kind of writing is really unpleasant to read and only makes me want to give up. I just can't stick with it.
The writing is too slow. Many plot points can be compressed or even deleted. For example, there's no need to write about how the protagonist passes the martial arts examination, the court policies, or just introduce the Minister of Works. The protagonist is only one year old and hasn't even stepped into the great struggle yet.
