Cultivation: A Phone from the Start, and I Buy All My Power

Across the vast myriad realms, worlds stand like a forest, and all living beings are prey. This is a cruel cultivation world governed by the dark forest law: resources are scarce, suspicion never ends, and there is no absolute good or evil. Everyone acts for their own sake. The Heavenly Dao lays down its laws, sects preach their doctrines, and gods pass on their teachings. All kinds of faith become invisible chains that bind living beings and reap their essence, preserving only the surface semblance of order. Liu Xubai, who transmigrated here, unexpectedly discovers a mysterious trading space called the Ruins Market hidden in his phone. Anything can be bought there: pills, cultivation methods, spiritual treasures, intelligence, you name it. All it takes is enough spirit stones and a cultivation level to match. With the supreme treasure Dust Origin in his hands, he could have ruled the region, but instead he chooses a more cautious path: hide his brilliance from the world and let loyalty and affection guard his heart. When he first entered the mortal world, he believed in family, friendship, and love, carrying with him a mortal's warmth and kindness. But through sect schemes, betrayal by fellow disciples, and ruthless clashes of interest, he came to see the world's cold, bleak nature. Human hearts are unfathomable, and the world is desolate, yet faint light still shines in the darkness: Su Qinghuan stays by his side for a lifetime, never abandoning him; Chen Yansheng stands with him through life and death, steadfast in loyalty. From a dilapidated courtyard in Qingshi Town to the Cloud Arena in the Nine Heavens during the Five Sects' Martial Contest, from the depths beneath a battlefield of bloodshed over a mineral vein to the mysterious heart of the Ten Forbidden Grounds, Liu Xubai makes the Ruins Market his trump card and caution his means of survival. He lies low in the cracks between worlds and finds a way out of faith's cage. After traversing countless realms and seeing through the celestial board, he will not become a god, rule the Heavenly Dao, or dominate the myriad worlds. He only wants to protect those by his side and follow a mortal's path to the Great Dao, one that belongs to him alone.
